They worked for Merlin and Nelson. But in reality, they were just being used as pawns.
For example, the current situation was to track Sebastian and wait for the right opportunity to get rid of him. It was sufficient with just Merlin and Nelson, but they insisted on involving them. Obviously, this was to drag them into a mess.
If the Sanders family investigated this in the future, they would become the scapegoats. Although they were aware of this, they had no choice.
They couldn’t refuse. They lacked the capability, so they could only be used as pawns. If they provoked Merlin and Nelson, they might end up dead.
“Mr. Wilder, it seems like we’re being tailed.” Zia frowned because she was worried.
“Find a way to get away from them,” Sebastian said. He had actually noticed they were being tailed, and it was more than one car.
Zia immediately sped up, reaching over 180 miles per hour. This was a highway with few vehicles. Although she was speeding, it wasn’t dangerous.
After all, Zia was quite a skilled driver. Being a practitioner, her reflexes and vision were far beyond ordinary people.
However, the cars behind them also sped up. She couldn’t get away from them no matter how she tried.
At this moment, a truck appeared in front of them. Its blinding light made it hard to see. “Watch out!” Joseph shouted urgently.
It was unusual for the truck to appear in front of them. Zia wanted to swerve quickly, but the truck also changed direction, clearly aiming to crash into them.
Obviously, the truck was arranged by the people behind them. With their capabilities, it was easy for them to find a driver willing to risk his life.
“Jump out of the car!” Sebastian ordered decisively.
Crashing at such a speed would certainly be fatal.
Jumping out of a speeding car might cause injury, but their lives wouldn’t be in danger because they were skilled practitioners.
Zia reacted quickly. She slammed on the brakes first. After the car steadied, she unbuckled her seatbelt, opened the car door, and jumped out.
Almost at the same time, Sebastian and Joseph, who were seated in the back, also opened the car door and jumped out.
There was a loud bang immediately after the sedan and truck collided.
The hood of the truck dented instantly. Meanwhile, the sedan turned into a pile of scrap metal, bursting into flames. If they had remained in the car, they would have been crushed or burned to death.
Sebastian and the others landed on the ground. Zia had a poor cultivation base, so she was seriously injured but not in mortal danger.
Joseph was a grandmaster and only sustained minor injuries.
Meanwhile, Sebastian practiced dual cultivation and was unscathed.
But the situation was far from optimistic. The cars behind caught up because of the delay. The car door opened, and Merlin, Nelson, and the others came out of the car.
“Sebastian, you’re really hard to kill. I’m surprised you managed to escape after I crippled your legs and ruined your cultivation base,” Nelson sneered.
I guess I’m just that hard to kill. Even the Grim Reaper doesn’t want me.” Sebastian pretended to be calm.
In reality, he was extremely anxious. Although he hadn’t achieved the Divine Realm, he could fight with someone better than him. However, the gap between a grandmaster and a divine grandmaster was too huge. With two divine grandmasters against him, the odds were stacked against him.
