Feeling Liam's distaste for Sinmalen, Lucy stopped mentioning anything about collaborating with them. Lowering her head, she looked at Liam and asked, "Grandmaster Burrey, have you decided on a name for the new medicine?""A name for the new medicine?" Liam was momentarily taken aback. He furrowed his brow, thought for a moment, and then responded, "Let's go with the formula's name—White Glycoside Cream."The last time he named a medicine 'Bellflower,' it had a special significance for him. However, this new medicine did not hold any particular meaning, so using the formula's name, White Glycoside Cream, was sufficient."White Glycoside Cream?" Lucy squinted, repeating the name of the medicine."That's right." Liam nodded, confirming the name."Since you're already aware of the situation, Grandmaster Burrey, I'll head back to the provincial capital to handle the production arrangements for the White Glycoside Cream," Lucy replied swiftly. Although she had not been in South City lo
"What's wrong?"Hearing this, Liam furrowed his brow."Can we… talk in person?"Valerie replied in a low voice, her tone even faintly tinged with a bit of a sob."Then let's meet at the café on Southeast Avenue," Liam said after a pause.A moment later, outside the café on Southeast Avenue.Just after getting out of the taxi, Liam noticed the Porsche Cayenne parked by the entrance.He pushed open the door and went inside.There, he saw Valerie already seated. Her delicate and pretty face was filled with dejection, and her bright eyes were slightly red.Clearly, Valerie had just been crying."What's going on?"Sitting in front of her, Liam narrowed his eyes slightly and asked.In his memory, Valerie had always been a positive and optimistic girl; he had rarely seen her look this down."Liam…"Seeing him appear, Valerie lifted her head, her gaze trembling, showing a sense of helplessness."What exactly is going on?"Seeing this, Liam frowned and said, "Whatever you're goi
"This..."Hearing this, Liam was momentarily stunned.When he first arrived, he thought something must have gone wrong with Valerie's family. He really had not expected it to be this! No wonder Valerie had said over the phone that only he could help her now!"Liam, I really don't want to be with that Mister Nosh..."Seeing Liam's reaction, Valerie's bright eyes reddened again, showing her disappointment.Valerie had always been lively and passionate, with a love for freedom since childhood. This time, in addition to her parents pressuring her quite harshly, there was another reason: she had someone in her heart that she truly liked! Otherwise, she would not be feeling so resistant and helpless against her family's arrangement."Then... alright."Seeing this, Liam could only sigh helplessly and nod. He could tell that Valerie truly had no other options in this situation."You're agreeing to help me?"Hearing Liam's words, Valerie suddenly looked up, her beautiful eyes lightin
In the villa's yard, an elderly man with a lean frame and vibrant spirit was holding a shovel, tending to the plants and flowers in the garden. Hearing a sound from outside, he lifted his head and, upon seeing Valerie, instantly revealed a warm smile."Valerie, you're back?" he said, stretching his back as he stood up. "I've already talked to your parents! If you don't want to get married, you don't have to. Our Hensworth family hasn't fallen to the point where we need to rely on selling off our granddaughter to advance!""No need to be too upset with your parents," he added, looking at her with a fond smile."Grandpa!" Valerie replied playfully upon hearing his words.The elderly man, tending to the garden, was Sebastian Hensworth, Valerie's grandfather, and the one who initially established the foundation of the Hensworth family."Oh? So our Valerie wasn't lying after all!"At that moment, Sebastian finally noticed Liam standing behind Valerie. He froze for a moment, then his s
This scene left Valerie astonished!Back at the class reunion, she had already been quite shocked by the hints of Liam's extraordinary background. But now, she was discovering that Liam even knew medicine?"It's just a little knowledge," Liam said with a faint smile in response to Valerie's remark."Kid, what you said just now matches my situation perfectly." At that moment, Sebastian's voice rang out as he looked straight at Liam. "Your medical skills seem far from just ‘a little' knowledge!""It's just a bit of understanding," Liam replied humbly, shaking his head."I don't care what you really understand!" Sebastian continued. "Since you're Valerie's boyfriend, that makes us family!"Waving his hand, Sebastian said, "I won't be polite with you. Since you noticed my back pain, you must have some understanding of it! Do you perhaps have any way to relieve this old back pain of mine?"He sighed deeply. "For years now, this back pain has really been the bane of my existence!""T
Sebastian no longer harbored much doubt about Liam's words. Looking at the scene before her, Valerie's face was filled with astonishment. She had never imagined it.Aside from being knowledgeable in medicine, Liam also knew martial arts! This revelation sparked intense curiosity in Valerie's heart. Hadn't he been in prison for a few years? How did he come out not only with such an extraordinary background but also with skills in both medicine and martial arts?The key point was that Valerie knew her grandfather, Sebastian, very well. Although he appeared kind and gentle, he actually had high standards! She had never seen anyone, except Liam, who could make Sebastian so satisfied upon their first meeting.Unfortunately… Liam was not actually her real boyfriend. Valerie lowered her head slightly, her eyes dimming a bit.However, at the moment, no one seemed too focused on Valerie. Sebastian eagerly began asking Liam about martial arts. Just as Liam was positioning himself to teac
"It's probably because Valerie didn't want to expose our relationship too much before."Liam shook his head.In fact, he felt helpless too. After all, just ten minutes ago, he had agreed to Valerie's request to pretend to be her boyfriend.Charles might have heard about him somewhere before. At most, it was probably back when they were in school, listening to Valerie talk about herself.Upon hearing Liam's answer, Charles's expression grew even darker.He looked at Valerie with dissatisfaction, then turned back to Liam, straightforwardly asking, "What do you do for a living, and what does your family do?""Charles, how can you talk like that!"Seeing this scene unfold before him, Sebastian's voice rang out first before Liam could respond."This young man is quite capable; he just helped me with my waist injury. After all, he is Valerie's boyfriend, so you should speak more politely!"He shot an unhappy glance at Charles."I…"Hearing this, Charles was taken aback, and a look
He immediately turned his head to look at Sebastian and said, "At your age, you usually have the best perspective. What happened this time? Why do you trust someone you just met so much?"That's because you didn't see the performance of this kid just now!"Sebastian was very dissatisfied with Charles's words. He patted his waist and said, "If it weren't for this kid just now, I wouldn't be able to stand up until now! He wants to teach me a set of boxing techniques that can heal my old man's back injury. Can you do that?""This…"Hearing Sebastian's words, Charles was taken aback. He really did not know that so much had happened just now. Charles was not a foolish person stuck in his ways. Seeing Sebastian's attitude, he could still determine that the young man in front of him had some ability.However, even so, Charles's thoughts did not change."What's your name?" Charles turned his head to look at Liam and asked. This was the first time he had inquired about Liam's name since e
But this is fine. With Liam's corpse in tow, I can go and seek credit from Grandpa!However, just at this moment...Clang—A cold gleam suddenly flashed before Liam's body.Without any obstruction, this gleam, carrying boundless sharpness, sliced through the air from the mighty tiger roaring in the sky!Ow—In an instant, the tiger, which had been roaring in the sky, emitted a howl like a defeated dog.It did not have time to react before it was split in half!At the same time..."I..."Mister Quentin and the dozens of internal martial artists beside him all shuddered simultaneously.Mister Quentin and the others struggled to lift their heads to look at Liam again. They opened their mouths but could not utter a sound.Then...A faint red line appeared on their foreheads.The next moment...Poof—With a muffled sound, the faint red line suddenly spread.Including Mister Quentin, the dozens of martial artists were instantly split in half, just like the tiger in the sky!
Since Liam's release from prison, he has encountered some martial artists.But without exception, all of these martial artists possessed skills that were of the lowest caliber.Moreover, the opinions of the Hestian people on traditional Hestian martial arts once made Liam think that, like traditional Hestian medicine, ancient martial arts in Hestia had long been lost to time.After all, in the Central Military District, where Gabriel is based, only a few people still know about Hestian martial arts!But Liam never expected that, this time in Juneau, he would witness the Eight Trigrams Combined Strike!It seems that the state of ancient Hestian martial arts is not as he had initially thought, already lost!"Hmm?"The moment he heard Liam's words, Mister Quentin in front of him suddenly froze, his previous movements becoming stiff!He had never imagined that Liam would directly expose the Nosh family's secret martial art!You see, the foundation of the Nosh family's power in Jun
"Dead?"Andy froze for a moment, a flash of surprise flickering in his eyes!He simply could not believe that the two of them, Monochrome Duo Wraiths—who were considered top-tier martial arts masters—could be killed by this young man right in front of him!"It's absurd!"The next moment, a mocking expression appeared on Andy's face. "Although I don't know how you managed to escape the pursuit of Monochrome Duo Wraiths, and still dared to come to Juneau to find us."But for someone who's come to die like you, I'm actually quite satisfied."He sneered and said, "Speak, how do you want to die?""Since all the members of your Nosh family are here." Liam imitated Andy's tone, showing a smile as he spoke, "Speak, how do you want to die?""You ignorant brat, you still dare to talk arrogantly!"Seeing this, the elder standing in front of Andy's eyes suddenly flashed with a fierce light.Boom—In the next moment, his body paused sharply and, like a tiger descending from the mountain,
During all of this, Andy stood still, not moving at all. Even when the guests scattered in panic, he did not say a word.His muscles were tense, appearing calm on the outside, but in reality, he was extremely nervous!The reason was simple.His grandfather had sent Monochrome Duo Wraiths to the South City for a mission, but they had not completed it and returned to Juneau.Instead, their target had found him without any effort, calm and composed!Although Andy still could not believe that advanced martial arts Masters like Monochrome Duo Wraiths could not handle an unknown young man, the situation in front of him was already speaking for itself!Andy had no idea what had happened at that time. But he was sure that the young man standing before him, with his handsome looks, was not someone to be underestimated.Thus, Andy was fully alert!It was not just Andy.Inside the villa, there were also other members of the Nosh family who had not fled.Or rather, after what Liam had sa
"I'll give you a hint."Liam gave a faint smile, but there was no emotion behind it. "Your grandfather, Arkem, sent someone to South City to find me, didn't he?""South City…"Andy froze for a moment.The next moment, his body trembled, and his eyes widened in shock. "You... you're that... Liam Burrey?!"Although Yaksha had brought Godfrey's body to Juneau to meet Arkem in secret, with very few people knowing about it, over time, the news eventually spread through the Nosh family.Not to mention, Arkem had directly sent the Monochrome Duo Wraiths to South City.The sudden disappearance of Arkem's trusted aides, who had always been by his side, was bound to raise suspicion.Most importantly, the severed arm of Yaksha had not returned to South City but remained in Juneau with the Nosh family.Through his daily, hate-filled rants, many members of the Nosh family in Juneau had learned the name of the person who killed Godfrey — the mysterious Liam from South City!However, unlike
Elsa stood dazed in place.She stared at Michael, who had collapsed on the ground, already lifeless, her eyes trembling uncontrollably.Even now, Elsa could not accept it—her son had just died right in front of her!"I... I will fight you to the death!"In the next moment, Elsa suddenly lifted her head, her face contorted, her eyes wide with rage as she rushed towards Liam. "I'll make you bury my son!"You damn, knife-wielding b*stard, I will kill you!"Her hoarse cries echoed throughout the villa's living room."You're so desperate... want to die?"Seeing this, Liam lowered his head and looked at Elsa below."I..."Upon hearing Liam's words, Elsa trembled, suddenly snapping back to her senses.Although Michael's death left her heartbroken, Elsa was not ready to die—she had not lived enough yet!She could not possibly want to die!Elsa immediately stopped in her tracks."Don't kill me! Don't kill me! I don't want to die! My son is dead! That's enough! I don't want to die!
"I didn't expect that I hadn't found you yet, and you came right to my doorstep!"Speak! What is your purpose for following behind Elsa and the others and coming to my Nosh family's banquet?"He stared at Liam, his eyes gleaming with a chilling light.As the legitimate eldest grandson of the Nosh family in Juneau, Andy was no pampered, unskilled rich second generation. He was very intelligent!Andy clearly knew that following behind Elsa and the others without being noticed, and even sneaking into the villa without alarming security, was no ordinary feat.All of this was not something just anyone could accomplish!Therefore, when facing Liam, he did not act rashly.However, Andy was quite clever, but there were always those at the scene who did not understand the situation."I didn't expect this b*stard to dare follow us the whole way!" Michael suddenly reached out, pointing at Liam while speaking harshly, "And you still dare tell Mister Andy Nosh that we brought you here!"We
He noticed this scene.Andy's expression suddenly darkened, and a trace of coldness flashed in his eyes.This villa was his private residence.Although it had been provided for the evening banquet, most of the villa contained Andy's personal belongings, especially on the second floor, where his bedroom was.If it were not for today's public display, Andy would never have allowed someone like Elsa to go up to the second floor of the villa!And now, someone actually dared to step onto the second floor of the villa without his permission!They were really courting death!"Who allowed you to go up there?"Andy's face was gloomy, and his voice was icy cold."Do I need your permission to go up there?"Liam looked down from a higher vantage point, answering淡ly."Do you dare speak to me like that?"As soon as Andy heard Liam's words, his expression changed dramatically.As the legitimate eldest grandson of the Nosh family, one of the most influential families in Juneau, the future
Elsa lifted her head and looked at Andy."I didn't mean that."Upon hearing this, Andy shook his head.He squinted as he examined Elsa, a hint of satisfaction flashing in his eyes.The fearful attitude that Elsa and Michael showed in front of him made Andy feel quite proud. This situation proved that he held supreme authority in their hearts.As long as this was the case, it meant he could easily control the Link family!However, controlling subordinates required more than just authority. It needed a balance of both favor and power!Only then could he leave a deep impression on the other guests at this banquet!"What I meant was, since you're unwell, you should get more rest."Andy's tone changed, and he smiled warmly, speaking in a friendly manner."As for the matter this time, I've understood it, and of course, you're not to blame.""Thank you, Mister Nosh!"Hearing Andy's words, Elsa's face lit up with surprise, and she repeatedly bowed to thank him."No need to thank m
