Draco gritted his teeth, trying to withstand the overwhelming force coming from the front. The other Zodiac Twelve members also felt the immense pressure, turning pale instantly.However, the power from Liam's fists surged like a tidal wave, each wave more earth-shattering than the last. Draco could not hold out any longer, faltering for just a moment.Boom!With a loud crash, the ten Zodiac Guards were instantly sent flying backward.Thud!They hit the ground heavily, their faces contorted in pain, unable to get back on their feet. Just like when facing Otto, Liam completely incapacitated the Zodiac Twelve with one punch.Whether it was Otto or the so-called combined technique of the Zodiac Twelve, Liam's punch shattered all their defenses. The Medical Guild members who had been anxiously observing froze in place, widening their eyes in disbelief.No one could have predicted that outcome. When the Zodiac Twelve completed their formation, the members of the Medical Guild were
Scott retreated in a state of panic, seeking help from anyone he could find. Raaina sighed softly as she watched Liam, stepping forward to stand in front of him."Grandmaster Burrey, it was our mistake this time," Raaina admitted, raising her head to meet Liam's gaze with sincerity."On behalf of our Medical Guild, I apologize. Mister Hansworth has already received the punishment he deserves. I ask you, Grandmaster Burrey, to show us mercy and let us go this once."Liam frowned. "You're pleading on Elder Winston's behalf?"Raaina sighed. "Although he has indeed made many mistakes, our Medical Guild cannot do without a leader."Liam expressed his confusion. "With someone like Scott, who is so consumed by greed, he has long lost the true essence of being a healer, yet you still acknowledge him as the Guild Master? Look at the chaos he has caused within the Medical Guild!"Liam had noticed Raaina's actions earlier and was willing to listen to her reasoning, but he could not comprehe
"I told you long ago. The Medical Guild is not a place where you can do whatever you want!"Scott's smug demeanor was irritating to see. However, Raaina ignored the blustering Scott and sincerely addressed Liam."Grandmaster Burrey, please leave. I'm truly sorry for this situation. We initially invited you to the Medical Guild to exchange medical knowledge, but who would've thought things would turn out like this?"We admit your medical skills are superior to everyone in our guild. We also know that no one here is your match, but Grandmaster Burrey, we still ask you to show some mercy."In the end, it was Raaina, a gentle woman, who stood up for the Medical Guild.Liam frowned at the scene in front of him. "It sounds like you think I'm here to destroy the Medical Guild."Scott shouted from the back, "Why are you standing there and not moving? Weren't you just saying you wanted to find me…"However, before he could finish, Scott saw Liam raise his head and look at him with a co
Liam turned his head to Raaina and asked, "Even though you've always mentioned that Scott is the head of the Medical Guild, if I recall correctly, Scott isn't actually the true leader, but rather the acting head, right?""Indeed, I am the acting head. However, until the true leader of the Medical Guild is found, I remain its rightful head!"Before Raaina could respond, Scott's mocking voice rang out.His face was filled with disdain as he looked at Liam. "What's this? Are you trying to scheme against me with such a tactic? You're thinking too much!"Scott was clearly pleased with himself."The Medical Guild has gone without a true leader for over a hundred years now," Raaina confirmed Scott's words."What on earth is going on with your guild?" Liam shook his head in disbelief."Whoever possesses the guild's relic is the rightful leader of the Medical Guild," Raaina explained as she watched Liam walk away. "But the guild's relic was lost long ago.""The guild's relic?" Liam rais
"What…"At that very moment, the entire Medical Guild fell into a dead silence. All the members, including Scott, stood rooted to the spot as if struck by lightning. They stared in disbelief at the 108 golden needles floating in the air.In truth, even though the members, including Otto, had seen these golden needles before, they had not realized their significance. During that time, when Liam used them to save the little girl, everyone's focus was solely on his needle technique. The details of the Harvest Union Golden Needles were too intricate to notice without careful observation.As a result, no one in the Medical Guild realized the uniqueness of the needles Liam used. In fact, Liam himself was unaware of the origin of the Harvest Union Golden Needles.If it had not been for Raaina's final words, the members might have once again missed the chance to recognize the token of their leader."Old Man Dante, just how many secrets are you hiding…"Liam's thoughts drifted as he glanc
Scott did not believe any of this for a second. No matter how hard Scott tried, he simply could not get his hands on Harvest Union Golden Needles. It was as if all his efforts, much like what he was trying to change now, were in vain. Even Liam was momentarily stunned by the scene before him."If I'm the Guild Master, does that mean I can deal with Scott however I want, without any consequences?"However, it did not take him long to recover. Narrowing his eyes, Liam studied Scott, who was shouting incessantly in front of him, and then asked, "So, the Guild Master can act as they please?"Without even lifting her head, Raaina's gentle voice answered, "Of course, the Guild Master has the freedom to do so.""In that case..." A smile crept onto Liam's face as he took a step forward, heading toward Scott.Hearing Liam's voice, Scott, who had been shouting at the top of his lungs, suddenly snapped out of it."What are you doing? I'm telling you that the Harvest Union Golden Needles you
Liam stood still, feeling a cold gaze from behind. Unbeknownst to him, Dragon One had regained consciousness. His trembling hand held a gleaming pistol, its barrel pointed directly at Liam.Despite being a member of the Zodiac Twelve, Dragon One had long strayed from his original path during his collaboration with Scott. He never acknowledged Liam's authority, and after what Liam had just done, their hatred had only deepened."Who cares about some useless Guild Master!" Dragon One's eyes glinted with malice. "All of you, die!"He squeezed the trigger. The gunshot rang out, the bullet tearing through the air, spiraling towards Liam."No!" Raaina's body shuddered at the sound of the gunshot."Guild Master!" Otto's pupils contracted in shock.Their hearts filled with regret.Why had they not noticed Dragon One waking up sooner? Why did they not see him draw his gun earlier? However, it was too late now. The bullet had already been fired."Guild Master..." Raaina's face twisted in
"Understood!" Raaina and the other members of the Medical Guild hurriedly stood up after hearing Liam's command."Guild Master, when the position of the leader is handed over, there's usually a ceremony involved," Raaina remarked as she glanced around, her voice tinged with hesitation. "But given the current chaotic situation, conducting the ceremony might take some time.""Why bother with all that complexity..." Liam waved his hand dismissively."Since you don't require any elaborate process, we can skip it. After all, the leader's token is the ultimate symbol of authority," Raaina nodded in agreement, swiftly continuing, "Now, let me report on the current state of the Medical Guild.""A report?" Liam frowned upon hearing this.He had originally come to the Medical Guild to exchange medical techniques and, along the way, investigate the poisoning incident involving Scott. Becoming the leader of the Medical Guild had never crossed his mind. Therefore, Raaina's words caught him off
"What...?"As soon as Valerie's voice rang out, the entire villa fell into an abrupt stillness. The Hensworth family members stared wide-eyed, their gazes fixed on Valerie, their expressions full of disbelief!"Valerie... why... why didn't you tell us about this sooner..."Charles stammered, trying to say something."I wanted to, but you never gave me a chance," Valerie said, a look of grievance flashing across her face."What..."Charles's vision darkened, and he staggered back a step!The shock from the message that Liam had sent, announcing the acquisition of Union Finance, had not yet worn off. And now, Valerie's words hit them like a depth charge, exploding violently in their hearts!The intense impact made the Hensworth family members tremble with shock!The charity foundation that caused such a stir in Qyn Province, whose listed medicine had captured the entire Hestian market in just three weeks, making it nearly impossible to obtain, was actually Liam's?The mysteriou
Everything, all of it, made the Hensworth family feel an inexplicable sensation!It seemed like the real reason behind the trouble faced by Union Finance was not the financial crash, but rather some targeted attack!The moment this thought crossed their minds, the Hensworth family members shuddered.The next moment, they suddenly looked up, their eyes filled with horror as they stared at Liam.They were not stupid!If there was any connection to everything happening, there could only be one answer!"Why are you all staring at me?"Feeling the eyes of the Hensworth family members on him, Liam was taken aback and asked, "Didn’t I already tell you about Union Finance’s situation?""Why are you still so shocked?"He looked at them with confusion."Kid..."Hearing Liam’s words, Sebastian's old face went pale, and for a moment, he seemed dazed!After swallowing a mouthful of saliva, he stammered, "Union Finance... their situation... you... you..."Under the intense shock, Sebast
"You... what do you mean by that?"Upon hearing Liam's words, Sebastian was momentarily stunned. He had no idea what this young man was suddenly talking about!What did he mean by saying that once the bodyguards returned, Lloyd Group would cease to exist?Lloyd Group, which spanned across the entire Qyn Province with a powerful background, had been doing booming business lately. How could it just disappear like that?Sebastian knew that Liam’s idea was, in theory, quite good. After all, if Lloyd Group were to disappear, the Nosh family would suffer a huge blow, and they would have no time to cause trouble for them in the short term.However, the idea of Lloyd Group disappearing was nothing more than a beautiful fantasy. It was impossible!It was not just Sebastian.Charles and Janell were also stunned after hearing Liam’s words.To be honest, after experiencing the events earlier, their impression of Liam had already changed quite a bit.As the current head of the Hensworth fa
"Sigh…"Sebastian listened to Liam’s words, hesitated for a moment, and then sighed heavily before speaking, "But even if you want to take action, you should leave no trace!"Although he had not expected Liam to suddenly take such drastic measures, Sebastian still understood the situation to some extent. After all, even he, an old man, was so furious at Godfrey’s earlier words that he could barely contain himself. It was needless to say how someone like Liam, a young man, would feel!Moreover, Godfrey had been threatening Liam not long ago. But Sebastian still felt that Liam had not thought this through completely.Sebastian, after all, was the man who had built the Hensworth family’s foundation, and he had a certain ruthless streak in him. He believed that now that Liam had already taken action, he should not have let those two bodyguards go back."Leave no trace behind!" he thought. Even those two bodyguards should not be spared. Who knows, the truth of Godfrey’s death might s
"Ugh…"Godfrey's body shuddered, his eyes flashing with intense unwillingness. He struggled, as if trying to say something, but not a word escaped his lips.Finally—Bang!A dull thud echoed as Godfrey’s body slammed heavily onto the ground, lifeless.Even in his wildest dreams, he could not have imagined—In South City, someone would actually dare to kill him!In Godfrey's mind, with Union Finance's status in the Qyn Province, it was inconceivable that anyone would dare act against him. Liam had broken his leg earlier, which was already outrageous enough!Otherwise, he would not have arrogantly declared moments ago, threatening to grind Liam's bones to dust unless he fled immediately.Who could have guessed—From the very beginning, Liam had no intention of letting Godfrey go!What Union Finance?What powerful connections in Juneau?To Liam, none of that mattered in the slightest."What now?"Liam stood up, casually tossing the dagger to Bluebird before turning to face
In the very next moment…As soon as Charles and the others processed what was happening, they hurriedly turned to Liam, frantically urging, "Liam, you need to leave now! This time, you’ve really gotten yourself into trouble!"Even though Charles and his companions still had not figured out what exactly was going on in front of them, and they had no idea who the woman who suddenly appeared was or what her relationship with Liam might be, they were absolutely certain that this time, Liam had truly stirred up major trouble!Despite Liam and the mysterious woman who appeared behind him both displaying impressive skills, they were still only two people.When faced with United Financial, Liam wouldn’t stand a chance of resisting.Not to mention—breaking Godfrey’s leg had completely severed any chance of reconciliation with United Financial. With Godfrey’s vengeful nature, this would undoubtedly escalate to a fight to the death!In Charles’s eyes, Liam’s only option was to flee immedi
"Don’t! Don’t you dare interfere with me!"Sensing the bodyguards' movements, Godfrey suddenly snapped awake. His face twisted with fury, his eyes bloodshot as he roared, "Kill him for me! Kill him!"The searing pain in his leg distorted Godfrey's features, but none of it could mask the blazing anger inside him.He, Godfrey, had been beaten into this state by a mere useless ex-convict!Even the Lloyd Group, the former backer of that useless ex-convict, Liam, wouldn’t have dared to treat him this way!Who gave him the nerve to do this?At the instant Godfrey's order rang out, the two bodyguards who had initially rushed toward him abruptly turned around. They swiftly drew retractable batons from their waists and aimed them straight at Liam’s head!"Yes! Beat him to death for me! I want his skin peeled off!"Godfrey's body trembled as he screamed madly at the scene before him.However, just as the two batons were about to strike Liam from both sides...A flash of cold light strea
Charles could not just stand by.However, Liam had not continued speaking yet.The moment Godfrey heard Charles’s words, his eyes widened abruptly, and an exaggerated grin appeared on his face."Liam?"Godfrey extended a finger, pointing straight at Liam, his tone dripping with sarcasm as he asked, "You wouldn’t happen to be that Liam, famed in South City, would you?"It was clear he had heard of Liam’s exploits."I don’t know anything about being famed in South City."Liam looked at Godfrey calmly and said, "I am Liam Burrey.""Hahaha!"Hearing Liam’s response, Godfrey burst into uncontrollable laughter, clutching his stomach. His laughter was saturated with ridicule. "I can’t take it! You’re killing me!"I thought the Hensworth family found someone reliable to back them up, but it turns out it’s just a useless piece of trash!"And you dare spout nonsense about breaking my legs?"Shaking his head, his face was full of disdain. "Now it’s clear—you people have lost your mind
"Liam…"Seeing the scene before her, Valerie trembled.When she first heard Godfrey’s merciless words, her heart burned with grief and indignation. Yet, Valerie also understood that in the face of this situation, she did not have any viable solutions.The moment she realized Godfrey was from Union Finance, Valerie knew the Hensworth Group was nothing in comparison.What’s more, the Hensworth Group was currently on the brink of bankruptcy and had to rely on Godfrey for help!She never imagined Liam would step up at such a moment.After all, she had only asked Liam to pretend to be her boyfriend; there was no real relationship between them.And Union Finance wasn’t just powerful. Its background was incredibly mysterious.There were long-standing rumors that Union Finance in Qyn Province had connections to Juneau.Otherwise, the Nosh family could not have dominated the vast financial market and remained unshaken for so many years.Even if Liam might be capable of resolving this,
