Harris’s home in the capital was located near Sky Harmoney Villa! And the Brabus off-road vehicle in front of them was worth more than 15 million. The Juneau license plate on it was even more extraordinary! It seemed that Harris’s situation wasn’t as simple as he had initially thought—he was not just moderately wealthy. However, Harris did not say much about it. After opening the car door for Liam, he warmly invited him inside. "Grandmaster Burrey, when did you arrive in the capital? Why didn’t you tell me in advance?" Then, Harris got into the car as well. As he started the engine, he glanced at Liam with a smile. "If you had told me earlier, I could have come to pick you up!" "I had some personal matters to handle first," Liam replied, shaking his head slightly. "I see…" Hearing this, Harris paused for a moment. He turned his head and looked around before asking curiously, "Grandmaster Burrey, are your personal matters related to Sky Harmoney Villa?" "Ye
From the very beginning, he had been well aware. As soon as Harris received his call, he must have already known the reason behind it. However, since Harris never brought it up, Liam also chose not to ask. But now, after finishing their meal, it was time. Hearing Liam's words, Harris hesitated for a moment. It was obvious—he knew the details all too well. In fact, he had even taken steps to delay Liam from learning the truth. But now, there was no way to stall any longer. "Grandmaster Burrey, regarding your mother… we've found some clues." He lifted his head to look at Liam, a flicker of hesitation crossing his face. "Hmm…" Liam nodded lightly and calmly said, "Go ahead." "I…" Hearing this, Harris's expression grew conflicted as he spoke. "Although our investigation isn't entirely conclusive yet…" "But…" He paused for a moment before looking up at Liam. "Grandmaster Burrey, our advice is that you'd best not pursue this matter any further." "
"How could something like this happen?!" Harris's hand trembled as he held the phone, his expression twisted in shock. Clearly, whatever was said on the other end of the call had shaken him to the core. "Honey..." Seeing his reaction, Susan could not help but show a hint of concern. She knew her husband well—he was always composed, rarely letting anything shake his emotions. But today… what could have possibly happened to make him react like this? "Alright, I understand." Harris quickly regained his composure, realizing that his reaction had been too extreme. He took a deep breath and spoke into the phone in a low, steady voice: "But I need to be informed about any further developments immediately." "No exceptions." Despite his calm exterior, the way he repeated himself and the faint tremor in his voice made it clear—he was anything but at ease. "Hah..." After giving a few more instructions, he finally hung up, exhaling a deep breath. "Honey… what
"No need for perfection." Liam shook his head and looked at Harris, saying, "Just tell me what you've found out so far." "I can handle everything." He gently rubbed the surface of his teacup. "Grandmaster Burrey, it's precisely because you think you can handle it that we can't tell you right now."The matters involving your mother, Misha, are far from simple." Hearing this, Harris let out a bitter smile and shook his head. "I can already guess how you'd react if I told you what I've uncovered. "But precisely because of that, I have to be cautious. Otherwise, the consequences of revealing everything now aren't something any of us want to see." A flicker of complexity passed through his eyes. "Grandmaster Burrey, I've already given up on trying to stop you from digging deeper into this. So please, just give me a bit more time to confirm everything…" Hearing Harris's words, Liam's grip on his teacup suddenly tightened. "Fine." His expression remained calm as
The Miers family was truly remarkable! Even though their actions might have been influenced by the fact that he could heal Wendy, they were still willing to take risks and persist in investigating Misha's case. Harris and Susan were people of their word, and that much was clear. Such good people should not have to suffer any trouble because of him. That was why Liam had warned them. From the looks of it now, they were aware of some of his abilities—but perhaps they still did not fully understand him! "Understood, Grandmaster Burrey. We'll keep that in mind." Hearing Liam's words, Harris's gaze trembled slightly before he smiled again. "Don't worry, we'll be fine." "That's good." Liam gave a slight nod. Then, after exchanging a few more words with Harris and Susan, he declined their earnest invitation to stay and left their villa. Once Liam was gone, the once lively villa suddenly fell into silence. After a long pause, Susan finally spoke. "Honey, w
"We don't even dare to leave Juneau now." Susan let out a sigh. Because of the surveillance from that powerful entity, they did not dare to make any moves. This was precisely why they had yet to leave Juneau. "Don't worry, we might be able to leave soon." Hearing Susan's words, Harris seemed to have thought of something. He lifted his head and looked at her. "What do you mean?" Susan was taken aback, a hint of shock flashing across her face. "What happened? Something big enough to affect the Burrey Clan?" "It's that phone call I just received." Harris let out a bitter laugh. The news he had been told replayed in his mind, and his eyes darkened with deep shock. "I still can't believe it…" "The Nosh family… has been wiped out." As he spoke, his voice trembled. "What?!" The moment Harris's words landed, Susan shot up from her chair! At this moment, she finally understood why Harris had looked so utterly shaken after answering that call. She knew a
"Based on the latest information, it wasn't those families that did this!" Hearing Susan's words, Harris's voice turned dry. "It wasn't those families?" Susan's body trembled upon hearing this, her eyes widening in shock. "Are you saying that there are other families in Hestia capable of wiping out the entire Nosh family?" "That's impossible!" She couldn't believe it. The more she talked to Harris about this, the more it felt like an absurd fantasy. The Nosh family of Juneau—what kind of power did they hold? How could an unknown force possibly exterminate them? In the vast land of Hestia, was there really another family capable of carrying out such destruction without making a sound? "The incident happened suddenly, and the details are still unclear. However, there are some rumors..." Harris's eyes trembled slightly. He swallowed hard and looked up at Susan. "The one who did all this... wasn't from those families in Hestia." "It was a single man!"
"The extermination of the Nosh family happened not long ago, and we just picked up Grandmaster Burrey from Sky Harmoney Villa." She swallowed nervously, her voice tinged with doubt. "Do you think Grandmaster Burrey might know something about this? Or… could he actually be involved?" "I…" Hearing this, Harris trembled, his pupils contracting sharply! Susan's words reminded him. They had picked up Grandmaster Burrey just outside Sky Harmoney Villa, and during their casual conversation, he had told them he was there to handle some personal matters! His personal matters… Could they have been about the Nosh family? "No! No way!" As soon as the thought surfaced in his mind, Harris quickly shook his head, dismissing it. "It can't be Grandmaster Burrey!" Even though they knew Grandmaster Burrey was incredibly powerful, he couldn't possibly be that powerful! That was the Nosh family of Juneau! Besides… They had not heard anything about Grandmaster Burrey a
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
