Kayson scooched to a seat further in and said, “Sit down and talk to me.”Silvan was overwhelmed with emotions but he had still taken a glance at Vivian, who was across from them. The girl was pretty, but he was alert due to his job, so he did not quite want to tell anyone other than Kayson.Kayson, who noticed it, told him, “It’s fine, just go on.”Silvan glanced at the door before he started speaking in a hushed voice. He had returned to Skyspring two days ago after taking a leave because of what had happened at home. His parents had a company. Although their status in the Killick Family was not high, they were still Killicks, so they were able to get decent opportunities thanks to the family name, despite how distant they were from the main family.His family business was not large, though. Its estimated value was $1,500,000,000, and they mainly ran car rentals.Once Silvan had come back, his parents had transferred the company to him and told him to keep the company no matte
Silvan was surprised. “Something’s happened to the main family? That’s impossible. They’re so strong…”Kayson shook his head. Were the Killicks strong? He might have agreed in the beginning, but now… Forget it. The Killicks were the last among the six major families, and their position was worse in Skyspring.Those who did not know them overestimated the Killicks, while those who did barely wanted to regard them.About 20 minutes passed while they ate. Then, a group of men came in. The leader of the group looked arrogant when he glanced at Kayson and his company, and then his lackeys went over to the other tables to chase the patrons away.The restaurant manager hurried out to pander to him, but while he seemed to be talking, the young man slapped him directly.“Scram! One more word and I’ll make sure the authorities shut your shop tomorrow!”The manager blanched at the threat and dared not make any more noise.All the patrons were chased away—except those at Kayson’s table.Si
Kayson could tell the young man’s level with just one glance. He was accomplished at inner energy, and such an accomplishment was excellent given his age. He was incredibly talented as a practitioner.In contrast, Captain Raymond Campell of Team Azure Dracon did not even have his inner energy gathered despite being already middle-aged.Ricken scoffed, “I was just wondering why Silvan Killick stopped running. I see that he’s got the support of a fighter now!”The fresh, clean-looking young man glanced at Kayson and told him, “I don’t really want to injure other people, and this has nothing to do with you. You can leave as long as you stay out of it.”Kayson smiled. “It’s not easy to achieve inner energy completion at this age. You must have a martial expert behind you who’s either a peak-level master or a grandmaster.“I will refrain from killing you because of what you said, but you must no longer work for the Osborns.”The young man, whose name was Flynn Boyle, froze. Like Kayso
“The Osborns have numerous grandmasters. A mere master fighter—”Kayson flicked his wrist carelessly and sent a fork in his direction, stabbing Ricken’s thigh.“Answer my question.”Ricken howled in pain and dropped his arrogant act, hastily answering, “We plan to take over the Killicks and make all their businesses ours.”Silvan asked angrily, “Why did you harm my parents?”Ricken’s voice shook as he answered, “Because your parents refused to cooperate. We didn’t expect them to be so alert and actually refuse to listen to the patriarch’s orders…”Kayson raised a brow. “Jules Killick’s orders? Jules agreed to let you acquire the Killicks?”Ricken was panicking. “I—I don’t know. It’s what my family says…”Kayson thought about it. It seemed that a visit to the Killicks was warranted.“Stay on your knees here,” Kayson told Ricken. However, the latter replied stubbornly, “But I’m the Obsorns’—”All it took was a glance from Kayson to shut Ricken up.Silvan wanted to beat Ricken
“Grandpa…”Flynn’s face was filled with disbelief. His grandfather was a peak master-level fighter.And being quite proud of himself, he rarely treated people with such politeness and respect.Ricken, who was kneeling on the floor, was shocked. “What are you doing, Master Boyle? You’re a master-level fighter. How could you bow to someone like him?” Urias’ face was dark as he said in a serious voice, “Mr. Yarde is far stronger than us. It’s only right for me to show him some respect.“In the world of fighters, we’re defined by our strength, not our age.” Flynn was stunned. “He’s far stronger than you, Grandpa?” He found it difficult to believe. ‘Could this man not be a master-level fighter, but a grandmaster-level fighter?’ Urias then said sternly, “Mr. Yarde is a grandmaster-level fighter. He’s the one who killed Zeus.”“What?!”Flynn’s face turned pale. He was also a fighter himself, so he had heard of Zeus’ name before. Ricken was taken aback as well. He had not exp
Kayson smiled and added, “I’m not done yet.“I don’t care what the Osborns have been plotting against the Killicks, but I want you to stop right now. If you do, I could let what you’ve done to Michael slide.” “Mr. Yarde, you aren’t that close to the Killicks, so I don’t know why you must make yourself an enemy of the Osborns. “If you wish to join our course, you are always welcome to establish a friendly relationship with the Osborns, Mr. Yarde. “After all, the Osborns will never say no to a great man like you. As for our past conflicts, my father has said that he can wipe the slate clean.”Silvan’s heart skipped a beat after he heard what Paxon said.Nobody would be able to resist such great temptation. Between the Killicks and the Osborns, even the most stupid person would know what to choose.“Well, it sounds like a great idea…” Kayson said calmly as he shook his head. “But I’m not interested in the Osborns. In comparison, I like the Killicks more.”Paxton frowned and loo
Kayson scanned Kendall with his Darksoul, and the doctor was indeed not lying. He refused to let them near his patients because of his responsibility as a doctor. He patted Silvan and smiled. “Dr. Leonard just cares about his patients. Besides, he’s right.”Kendall raised his eyebrows. Apparently, he had not expected Kayson to take his side, but even so, he wouldn’t stand back.Kendall then said indifferently, “Alright, I will not let you guys near my patients. Besides, Mr. Killick, I have good news for you.“If you collect enough money, you can hire the Divine Hand from Metrocity to treat your parents. He's the real expert.”Silvan’s eyes bulged wide in shock as he quickly asked, “He’s from Metrocity? Can I meet him, Dr. Leonard?” Kendall said, “I can set up a meeting for you, but it’s up to you whether you can get him here to treat your parents.” Silvan became nervous. He felt like there were ants in his pants, as he did not know what he should say if he met up with an expe
A group of people walked into the hospital with Joaquin in the center.The director and deputy director, as well as a group of specialists from Skyspring City Hospital, were walking behind him.Kendall was one of them. After all, he was also one of the best doctors in Skyspring City Hospital.The director of the hospital was known as Joshua. He was a 60-year-old man who also used to be an influential figure in the medical world when he was young.Right now, he was talking to Joaquin.Joaquin said, “I heard that your hospital has solved several medical problems again. It seems like you really have a good team, Mr. Cole.”Joshua replied modestly, “This is nothing worth mentioning. Our contribution is nothing compared to yours, Mr. Larson.”Joaquin shook his head and sighed. “You flatter me. More and more talented people are appearing in this world, and it seems to me that Skyspring is going to be famous in the future.”Surprised, Joshua hastily asked, “What do you mean, Mr. Larso
