Although Liam did not fully understand what the term 'Master' used by Mister Owen meant in reference to the man before him, one thing was certain from Mister Owen's words: this man in black undoubtedly knew about the events surrounding Misha from 20 years ago, and might even have been directly involved!"Young Master, I may not know what you've gone through all these years, or how you’ve managed to gather a couple of decent subordinates," Mister Owen’s voice echoed once again.His gaze swept briefly over the figure of Bluebird before turning back to Liam, a smile playing on his lips. "However, you should just obediently come back with me. Once you return, I can guarantee you wealth and glory!"Despite the politeness of Mister Owen's words and his use of the respectful term 'Young Master', Liam could hear the intense malice hidden in his tone! It was as if Liam was not a person at all, but a highly coveted commodity."I’m asking about Serena," Liam’s expression gradually darkened.
Indeed, it could be said. Mister Owen was Six Ears' final trump card, the ultimate backing.The underground boxing matches were established under Mister Owen's suggestion. In fact, Mister Owen, possibly in an effort to hone his martial skills, used to frequently step into the ring himself! However, 20 years had passed, and it had been several years since Mister Owen last set foot on the stage. The reason? He had long since found no worthy opponents.Now, having witnessed Mister Owen in action, Six Ears no longer had any concerns. He was absolutely certain of one thing: neither the woman who had just taken on 100 men by herself nor the young man standing behind her could possibly be a match for Mister Owen!Even to this day, Six Ears was not entirely clear on why Mister Owen had stayed behind. All he knew was that it might have something to do with Misha!"What a foolhardy move!" Six Ears glanced at Liam, a cold smile playing at the corners of his lips.At that moment, Mister
Though he was just a step away from becoming a martial arts Ascendant, that single step felt like an insurmountable chasm, impossible to cross! Yet, the woman standing before him, beautiful beyond reason, had already achieved the rank of an Ascendant!It was well known that in all of China, the existence of martial arts Ascendants was exceedingly rare. He had never heard of such a young and stunning martial arts Ascendant before!"Who… who are you, really?"In the next moment, Mister Owen could no longer maintain his earlier composure and superiority. His gaze quivered as he looked at Liam, who stood beside her.For someone to have a martial arts Ascendant as their personal protector…! This Young Master, whom he had assumed to have only a modest background, was clearly someone far more significant! What in the world had happened over the past 20 years?"Is Grandmaster Burrey’s name even something you’re worthy of mentioning?"Seeing the scene unfold before her, a sharp glint su
"Too rigid, and it easily breaks."As Liam's calm voice echoed, he suddenly raised his hand, using his finger as a sword, and struck precisely six inches down on Mister Owen's other arm!Bang!A muffled sound came from Mister Owen's arm!"Ahh!"Mister Owen let out a cry of pain. His once straight and powerful arm instantly drooped down, losing all its strength!With just a single finger from Liam, Mister Owen's entire method of exerting force was disrupted!"How is this possible…?"Mister Owen's voice was filled with terror. If the technique of the Bluebird had left him shocked, then Liam's sudden move had plunged him into boundless fear.He could not comprehend how the Grandmaster's technique, which he had practiced for over 40 years, could be thrown off balance by a single finger.This scene far exceeded his imagination!"Don't you understand?"However, Liam paid no attention to Mister Owen's shock. He spoke calmly, "Your technique is still far from perfection.""You…"
Energy coursed through his body, spreading the inner energy throughout every fiber of his being!"What kind of monster are you?!"Mister Owen let out a heart-wrenching scream filled with despair.However, Liam paid no attention to the terrified Mister Owen. His expression remained calm as he unleashed a powerful strike, the Mountain-Crushing Palm, directly towards his opponent."No, please!"A panic-stricken cry escaped Mister Owen's lips as he instinctively raised his arms in a desperate attempt to defend himself.Boom!Liam’s palm came crashing down, precisely striking the bronze rings wrapped around Mister Owen’s forearms.Crack—A dull sound echoed through the air as the sturdy bronze rings barely held for a split second under Liam’s palm before violently shattering into countless fragments that shot out in all directions.Boom!Mister Owen's body was flung backward like a ragdoll, crashing heavily onto the ground."How... how is this possible...?"Blood spilled from h
20 years ago, a group arrived from Juneau in search of a woman named Misha Ellis."At that time, I had just started my intelligence business. They approached me and asked me to keep an eye on whether Misha was accompanied by a child," Liam recalled."Perhaps luck was on my side. Just three days later, I encountered Misha. I then led them to her. As for the child they mentioned, I never saw one. So, I lied and told them that Misha was alone."Six Ears stammered, unable to hold back his confession. "After that, they left a man named Mister Owen with me and took Misha away from South City. With some of their assistance, my business gradually expanded…"It was evident that Six Ears was genuinely terrified this time. He left nothing concealed, revealing everything he knew, including some experiences from recent years."You’ve told me so much, but you still haven’t said who exactly took Misha!" Liam's eyes flashed with sharp intensity as he looked at Six Ears."I didn’t say because I d
"I still have value! If you spare me, I am willing to serve you..." Six Ears begged incessantly."Silence!"Before Six Ears could finish speaking, he was cut off by a cold voice from Bluebird. She glanced at him disdainfully. "You think you're worthy of serving Grandmaster Burrey?""I..."Six Ears's body trembled at those words. He could barely control himself, and a sudden urge to relieve himself came over him."Enough!"Seeing this, Liam's face showed a trace of disgust as he spoke. "I'll spare your life, but you need to hand over your intelligence network.""No problem!"Six Ears raised his head, trembling as he spoke. "But... the intelligence network is vast. I'm afraid two people alone won't be able to handle it..."He was not unwilling to hand over his network. To survive, Six Ears was willing to do anything. He was merely stating a fact. The complex web of intelligence was not something one or two people could manage.Moreover, Six Ears had his own selfish motives. Des
"Information network..."Nathaniel squinted his eyes and turned to look at Six Ears."I am Six Ears, Mister Fowler, we've met before!""I'll hand over my entire information network!"Noticing Nathaniel's gaze, Six Ears forced a smile that looked more like a grimace. "Please, I beg you, ask Grandmaster Burrey to spare me!"He followed Nathaniel's lead and pleaded once again."Six Ears!"The moment Nathaniel heard this name, he was suddenly stunned!As the local power in South City, Nathaniel had always been aware that there was a hidden big shot in their city—a powerful figure in the information trade, known as Six Ears!Once, when Nathaniel was trying to fulfill Grandmaster Burrey's request to locate Misha, he had reached out to Six Ears.However, at that time, he had gained nothing from the interaction.In fact, Nathaniel had not even met Six Ears face to face.This incident had left Nathaniel furious, and he had always been looking for an opportunity to retaliate.Howe
"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,
