At that moment, Nathaniel's voice echoed as well, and he grinned widely. "Recently, Chester and I have been planning something together."Grandmaster Burrey, don't worry, we'll definitely give you a surprise. You won't be disappointed."Nathaniel glanced at Liam, his eyes gleaming with determination.Since he had chosen to follow Grandmaster Burrey, beyond the help Grandmaster Burrey had given him, he had to prove that he could keep up with Grandmaster Burrey's pace!Otherwise, what would make him any different from a useless person?Suddenly, Nathaniel seemed to recall something. He looked up at Liam, offering a fawning smile. "By the way, Grandmaster Burrey, you still haven't told me—why did you suddenly call me here? Is something going on?""It's not really a big deal," Liam shook his head and turned to look at Jarso, who had been frozen in place beside them. Liam spoke nonchalantly, "Just now, while I was treating them, I encountered something amusing.""What?"Hearing this
Lilian never imagined this would happen.The method she usually used to bully others, the one she had always taken for granted, had somehow resulted in such serious consequences this time.Jarso's body lay motionless right in front of her, filling Lilian with endless fear.Her husband, who had been a dominant figure even in the provincial capital, feared and revered wherever he went—was now lying dead like a helpless chick in front of this young man?And they—just moments ago—were still thinking about how to take revenge on this young man?It was not just Lilian who was shocked. Ben had collapsed on the ground once again!Inside the villa, even the subordinates Jarso had called with one phone call moments ago were now frozen in place, not daring to move an inch!It was not that they were not loyal to Jarso. It was because they knew very well the consequences of making any rash moves now.Forget about Chester and Nathaniel, who had immense influence in the underground circles of
Grandmaster Burrey did not say how the aftermath should be handled, but he could not avoid taking action!Anyone who dared to show disrespect to Grandmaster Burrey had only one fate!As the subordinates flooded into the villa, Chester turned his head and quickly chased after Liam in the direction he had left."Grandmaster Burrey, after we took over Six Ears's intelligence network, we finally understood how deeply Six Ears had been hiding in South City! His intelligence network had already reached..."When Chester caught up with Liam, Nathaniel was reporting something to Liam.Hearing Chester's footsteps, Nathaniel paused, turned his head slightly, squinting his eyes, and asked, "Is everything taken care of?""Yes," Chester nodded slightly.Seeing this, the smile on Nathaniel's face grew even more."Grandmaster Burrey, give Chester and me a bit more time," he turned to Liam and respectfully said, "After a while, you won't have to worry about the matters in the province capital a
"Since we've already told Grandmaster Burrey about our plan," Nathaniel's eyes were filled with reverence as he gazed in the direction where Liam had left, speaking seriously, "we must accelerate the pace of our plan!"Otherwise, how else can we surprise Grandmaster Burrey?"He turned his head and looked at Chester."You're right!" Upon hearing Nathaniel's words, Chester nodded earnestly."Remember what we discussed!"As if recalling Liam's approval from earlier, a fanatic gleam flashed across Nathaniel's face. "We must offer the entire underground of the Northwest as a gift to Grandmaster Burrey!"Meanwhile, Liam was already on his way back.He had no idea how grand the gift that Nathaniel and Chester were preparing for him would be!Originally, Liam had come to the provincial capital just to check on Wendy's health and gather news about the mysterious Lynch family from the capital.But unfortunately, there was no news about the Lynch family.Instead, he got involved in a se
He was itching to rush forward and give Etchen a slap. "What did you say at the time? You were even willing to write a guarantee! After guaranteeing it, is this the result you give?""And now that something so big has happened, you tell me! Tell me how you're going to handle it!"Ronald was trembling with anger.Even though at the beginning, he also supported Etchen taking care of the matter on his own.After all.Lloyd Group could not just let Serena handle everything by herself!But Ronald never expected that Etchen, who was fully responsible for coordinating business with Ingram Group, would cause such a huge mess!As a businessman, Ronald clearly understood how serious this incident was!It was not just about affecting the cooperation with the Verdant Harvest Charity Foundation.If the situation were allowed to continue, Lloyd Group could face a devastating blow because of this incident!After all.This time, there was already a drug safety issue!Lives were at stake!
"What do we do? What can we do?!""If the issue hadn’t spread, everything would be manageable, but now that it’s hit the news, what can we do?"Ronald’s face was full of rage as he glared fiercely at Etchen, his eyes burning with anger. "It’s this little brat who caused all this trouble for us!"Even though the decision to let Etchen be responsible for supplying materials to Lloyd Group was a collective decision of the Liu family, in the face of the current disaster, Ronald could no longer accept it!After all, this matter was a devastating blow to the entire Lloyd Group!The worst part was, as far as they could tell, there was no way to handle it!"Alright, alright! Blaming Etchen now won’t change anything."Hailey waved her hand, trying to calm the situation down again. "Let’s quickly think—there must be some way to fix this!"Even she, who had supported Etchen the most fiercely when they decided to let him cooperate with Lloyd Group, was hesitant to take sides now.Hailey's
When talking about all these things, his face had already turned livid!"Ugh! That's not what I meant!"Who knew?After hearing Ronald’s words, Hailey waved her hand and spoke again, "I’m not talking about whether they live or die!""Whether they live or die doesn't concern us much. What I’m asking is whether we can deal with their families! Things have escalated this much because they want compensation, don’t they?""We can just bleed a little more and give them more compensation. As long as this whole situation can be resolved, there’s no problem!" she frowned and said."Exactly! Don’t they just want money? We can just give them money!" Etchen suddenly raised his head after hearing Hailey’s words.He was the same as Hailey.Even now, he believed he had done nothing wrong!The reason this situation had blown up so much was that those patients hospitalized simply wanted money!"Heh…"Serena was so furious she laughed."Mom! If that’s really what you think, then you’re very
In her intense agitation, Hailey completely disregarded everything, blaming Serena for everything that had happened."I..."Hearing Hailey's words, Serena's body trembled violently.Even though she knew that many of the things her mother said were wrong and had nothing to do with her!This incident was entirely caused by Etchen's mistake.However, Serena was still overwhelmed by her own guilt. She lowered her head, unable to respond."Enough, say no more."Ronald frowned, waving his hand at Hailey. "Ever since the incident, Serena has been tirelessly trying to find a way to solve everything!""From the day it happened, Serena hasn't had a good night's sleep in three days and nights!"He knew a bit about the situation with this unexpected event."Not getting a good night's sleep? Isn't that exactly what she deserves?"Hailey glared, showing no hint of sympathy for Serena. "Besides, you say she's been thinking of ways to handle the problem, but has she come up with anything?
Kenton's eyes widened as he stared straight ahead.Freddy's lifeless body lay less than two meters away from him. From that distance, Kenton could clearly see Freddy's eyes, devoid of any sparkle.Maybe, if Freddy had taken just one more step to escape the ring and concede defeat, things might have been different.But that was impossible.From the moment Freddy chose to step into the ring, the outcome was already sealed.Right now, Kenton couldn't even feel the pain in his own body. His heart was completely consumed by fear.Kenton had never imagined that one day he would witness such a scene.Even more unimaginable was the fact that someone could be so terrifyingly powerful!All the instructors from the battle zones had been killed by the same person. Among them was even a martial arts Ascendants.Yet all of them combined could not last a single round against that Grandmaster!Everything that had just happened felt like a nightmare to Kenton.Even now, he could not believe
Ten Years Ago.When Matthew first took office as the commander of the Western Military Region, Brandon Yorkshire had already become his personal guard.Over the past ten years, however, Brandon had never once made a public appearance like he did today!Matthew had never expected that today, after Grandmaster Burrey from the Central Military Region made his move, Brandon would voluntarily show up, and even seem so frightened!However, the old man's appearance did not surprise Liam at all.Because the moment he saw Matthew, he had already noticed the old man's presence."The Martial Code?"Yet, the old man's words made Liam narrow his eyes.But now was not the time to dwell on such matters.Bang—Liam casually tossed Jormund's body aside, then looked up at the remaining special forces instructors still standing on the stage, showing a faint smile."I..."Seeing this, the few remaining instructors on the stage trembled violently!A formless fear instantly gripped their hearts
Jormund finally understood why, at that time, Gabriel did not resist when facing Liam.It was not that Baeron did not want to fight back.It was that, at that moment, Baeron had no chance to resist!The overwhelming pressure, like the sky collapsing, and the boundless fear!It left them completely unable to control their bodies!This man, who was called Grandmaster Burrey, what kind of monster was he?!Not only could he see through the condition of Jormund's body at a glance, but with a simple gesture, he made Jormund's inner energy shrink in terror, completely unable to move!Even though he had already broken through to the realm of martial arts Ascendant, it was still useless!Suddenly, Jormund recalled Baeron's action right before his death—trying desperately to look at them.Now, he finally understood the reason behind that gesture!But he no longer had any way to share his discovery with anyone else!Jormund stared wide-eyed at Liam's slender, well-defined hand, getting
"Mister Celd… When did you break through?"Their faces were filled with shock.Previously, the instructors from other military districts knew that Jormund's strength was extraordinary, but they had no idea to what extent.But they never expected this.Jormund had already become a martial arts Ascendant!That seemingly insurmountable chasm had been crossed by him!From now on, when they faced Jormund, they would probably have to show the respect of juniors!The instructors from other military districts could feel their inner energy trembling slightly under the impact of Jormund's aura, their faces showing a bitter smile.Now they finally understood why Jormund had said that he alone was enough back then!In the presence of a martial arts Ascendant, they weren't even qualified to fight alongside him!At the very front, the smile on Jormund's face was arrogant and unrestrained!"Originally, I planned to reveal my strength when reporting back to my clan. However, I just can't st
"What?""The instructors actually teamed up!""Teamed up? Wasn't it that Grandmaster Burrey of yours who asked for it himself?""If he wants to die, who can he blame!"...Seeing the situation on the stage, a group of soldiers immediately started discussing, with a hint of argument in their voices.The soldiers from other military districts who came to this so-called exchange meeting had long been displeased with that so-called Grandmaster Burrey!"Heh..."Seeing the group of instructors jumping onto the stage, Jormund chuckled softly.However, he did not say much, but his expression was full of confidence.The next moment, Jormund raised his head and looked at Liam, squinting his eyes sharply."Are you ready?"His voice was chilling!"I..."Right at that moment, Liam seemed to notice something and was stunned for a moment, just about to say something!But before he could speak.In front—Boom!Jormund did not give Liam any time to react.In just an instant, he charge
"Grandmaster Burrey..."In a panic, Gabriel opened his mouth, about to say something.But in the end, he was a moment too late!The next moment, Liam's hand, which was gripping Baeron's neck, tightened slightly.Crack—A crisp sound echoed.Baeron's head drooped instantly, the light in his eyes extinguished.Baeron, dead!In his final moments, he couldn't even tell the other officers from the various military districts below what he had originally intended to say!"What!""Impossible!""Grandmaster Burrey killed Baeron?""Weren't they just putting on an act?""What the hell is going on!"...In an instant, the entire stadium erupted like a boiling pot!No one could have imagined that Grandmaster Burrey would actually choose to kill directly!"Sigh..."On the main platform, Gabriel let out a heavy sigh and sat back down.Having once witnessed Grandmaster Burrey's methods, he knew very well just how terrifying it would be if Grandmaster Burrey decided to take action!
"I…"Baeron's face was filled with terror!His body was frozen in place by sheer fear, unable to move at all!Even though he was intensely focused a moment ago, Baeron couldn't catch a single glimpse of Liam's movements.But that was not what terrified him the most.The real reason for his overwhelming horror, the bone-chilling fear, was actually quite simple.It was the aura emanating from Liam's slender, fair hand — fingers distinct and refined.Baeron had lived for over forty years and believed that with his status, he was already accustomed to facing storms and dangers. Even a martial arts Ascendant would not have fazed him, especially considering the powerful backing he had.But never, never had Baeron felt such a hopeless aura.Deep as an abyss, majestic as a deity!The aura from the figure before him was beyond anything Baeron could describe.The once powerful internal energy within him now shrank into a corner, as if it had encountered its greatest predator. No matte
"A mere rat dares to talk so big with such little strength!"Liam's attitude filled Jormund with rage. He had never seen someone so arrogant before."Who do you think you are!"You're even scared of Baeron, and you think you're worthy of having all the army instructors attack together?"Jormund snapped furiously, "Do you really think that just because you brought some officers from the Western Military Region into the ring, you can do whatever you want?""So what you're saying is, if I deal with Baeron first, then all of you will attack together?"Liam turned his head and looked calmly at Jormund."I... "Hearing this, Jormund was momentarily speechless.He had not expected this so-called Grandmaster Burrey to actually respond."Don't worry, you won't get the chance."Baeron sneered, "There's no need to talk about everyone attacking at once. Since you're so eager to die in place of Yet, I'll gladly oblige.""If that's the case." Liam narrowed his eyes slightly and glanced at
"The Central Military Region is replacing the instructor on stage. The match will continue."After confirming the information, the referee standing nearby announced that the exchange conference would proceed.At the same time, he quickly arranged for staff members to hurry onto the stage and carry away Kenton, who was lying in the center of the ring, groaning in pain.The incident happened suddenly.The instructor exchange conference was the priority.For now, no one had time to question why Grandmaster Burrey had appeared out of nowhere and smashed a Western Military Region officer into the ring.Even if there were questions, they would have to wait until the conference ended."Ah—"As Kenton was being carried off, his agonized screams continued to echo.He felt as if every bone in his body was broken, with no part spared from the pain!"Baeron, you have to avenge me! Avenge me! Make that little bastard suffer!"Kenton wailed in fury, shouting with all his might.Despite ev
