Luke simply nodded at Skye, then looked at Jia Ying.
Jia Ying took a deep breath and said in a low voice, "Mr. Big Dipper, isn't it impolite to come in without saying goodbye?"
Luke said, "That's why I said, please bear with me."
Jia Ying said, "… Fine, please go to the living room first, sir. We'll talk in detail."
Luke said, "Okay."
The three of them went to the living room not far away. When they entered, they saw that Gordon was already standing inside.
Jia Ying said that the talk in the living room was just to stall for time and wait for reinforcements to arrive.
Gordon was the first to arrive, and had notified the other reinforcements before he came here.
On the virtual screen inside Luke's mask, five people were running toward the compound.
But that was a good thing.
Those who dared to come as reinforcements couldn't be weak, or they would just be sending themselves to die.
Jia Ying was a woman with good mental fortitude. When she arrived in the living room, she could even order Gordon to prepare a pot of tea.
This was another tip off to Gordon to tell the reinforcements that Big Dipper was coming.
In any case, he could teleport, and it would only take a thought for him to come back and help.
Jia Ying sat down in a chair and gestured. "Please sit."
Luke sat down across from her and crossed his legs.
It was very impolite, but he wasn't here to talk about manners today.
Jia Ying's eyes flashed, but she still had that polite smile on her face. "Mr. Big Dipper, how long have you known my daughter?"
Luke said, "A few years."
Jia Ying glanced at Skye. "Oh, can you tell me how you met?"
Luke glanced at her. "Because she needs friends who can take care of trouble."
Jia Ying's heart sank. "Darcy is my daughter. She won't run into any trouble here."
Luke's voice was cold. "It doesn't matter. If there is, I'll help her take care of it."
Jia Ying's face darkened. Are you saying that I'm one of the people who will be taken care of?
Skye was a little embarrassed. Wasn't that too direct?
Looking at the mother and daughter's expressions, Luke chuckled inwardly. If Big Dipper could be so considerate and considerate, he wouldn't be a scapegoat!
He had arrived the night Skye and her daughter arrived.
He had been using the Mountain Monster drone to monitor the area for the past few days, and had seen more than Skye.
She was bound by family, and it would be hard for her to fall out with her mother even if she had doubts.
So, he could only make things clear and solve the problem in the open.
No one knew how to negotiate better than Luke, because he was best at making conditions that others couldn't refuse!
In just a few sentences, Jia Ying was a little unable to continue.
Big Dipper didn't follow the normal flow of conversation at all. Her own combat strength was limited, and she needed to stall for time until her reinforcements arrived.
At this moment, Gordon finally teleported back with a pot of hot tea in his hand.
Jia Ying immediately instructed nonchalantly, "Come, Mr. Big Dipper, drink some tea first. We can talk slowly."
Luke didn't refuse. He even lifted the lower half of his visor and took a sip of the tea.
Jia Ying looked at his exposed mouth and chin, looked at his neat white beard, and looked at his practiced and leisurely posture of drinking tea. She couldn't help but wonder, "He should be a Chinese man in his fifties?"
What was used here was a covered bowl and cup. Many Chinese had never done the act of lifting a bowl and placing the lid on it, let alone become proficient in it.
In the end, Luke only took a sip before he put the cup back on the table. "I've drunk the tea. Your people are here. Now, let's talk business."
Jia Ying's hand that was holding the teacup paused.
Before she could reply, she heard Luke "mutter" to himself. "It's fine if the tea is ordinary, but I didn't expect him to be so bad at making it."
Jia Ying's eyes widened as she looked at the guy who was curling his lips and looking disdainful. Did he have to mutter so loudly?
Before she could say anything, Luke said, "Skye is already an adult. You don't have the right to make any choices for her, including driving her father away."
As soon as he said that, Jia Ying's face was gloomy and Skye's face was full of shock.
Luke wasn't done yet. "It's her freedom to stay in the afterlife or return to America. You don't have the right to put her under house arrest."
Jia Ying couldn't help but clench her fists. Am I her mother? Or are you her father?
Luke said, "Today, I'll take her back to Calvin. Do you have any objections?"
Jia Ying opened her mouth slightly, but he waved his hand impatiently. "Forget it, your opinion isn't important. I'll give you an offer you can't refuse! "
As he spoke, he stood up.
At that moment, five people came in through the door.
One woman and four men. The woman was around thirty years old, and the men were in their early twenties to fifties.
"Don't say that I didn't give you a chance." Luke looked at the five people. "You have three seconds to prepare. Three, two, one! "
With that, he drew the long knife on his back and lunged at the five people.
Looking at Luke's aggressive approach, a young white man standing in the middle subconsciously raised his hand and activated his ability.
"Damn it!"
"You idiot!"
"No …"
"F * ck!"
The four people around him noticed his movements and cursed as they tried to move away.
But they were a step too slow.
White electric arcs suddenly appeared around the young man, and some of them darted into the bodies of the four people.
The middle-aged woman fell to the ground with a thud and twitched. Soon, white foam gushed out of her mouth.
A strong Asian man moved the fastest and basically retreated from the circle of electric arcs, but his body still involuntarily twisted a few times and he let out a muffled grunt.
The little Asian man in his fifties moved at an average speed, but he was the first to start retreating.
Even though he had gone crazy from the electric shock, he gritted his teeth and retreated several meters.
The last white middle-aged man could only crawl away from the circle of electric arcs with difficulty. He couldn't help but scream, but his screams were full of energy and his body didn't even tremble.
In the midst of the chaos, the young man raised his hands and shot a twisted white electric arc at Luke, who was lunging at him.
Luke's long knife turned into a silver light and slashed at the electric arc, and the blade instantly exploded with dazzling electric light.
The North Star reminded him in a timely manner, "External energy received. The energy system is at 120%. Please use it as soon as possible and return to normal."
Despite the reminder, the long knife didn't stop at all and continued to slash forward. The moment the young man raised his hand to block it, it pierced through his head.
Duang！
The unsealed back of the knife hit the young man's forehead neither lightly nor heavily, and he blacked out.
Luke drew back his long knife and slashed out with both his left and right hands.
Two white electric arcs shot out from the tip of the knife, almost identical to the ultimate move the young man had just used. They instantly landed on the old Asian man and the white middle-aged man who was crawling.
As if he had been sent flying, the old man retreated even faster.
The white middle-aged man's bulging belly blossomed. He leaped forward and screamed as he fled more than ten meters away.
Luke didn't stop after slashing out two electric arcs. He leaped up and raised his long knife with both hands, before he swung it down at the only intact Asian man.
