“Kaze Lee, you are ballsy enough to talk shit about Mr. Sieg! But Mr. Sieg doesn’t even care about you!” “Yeah! You are a vermin! To him, you are nothing but an insect! How dare you challenge him?” The others started to mock Kaze again. Kaze had overpowered them with his presence and they were worried that Kaze would order his men to smash their cars or limbs, so they remained quiet until now. They finally got a chance to vent their emotions through the insults. Sieg refused to show, which baffled Kaze. Kaze raised an eyebrow and said, “It seems like you are going to lose your arm and leg today, Corax.” “Hmph. You can keep dreaming!” Corax was surprised that Kaze still had the nerve to challenge him. “Look at him, stupid and stubborn!” “I only realize there’s someone so stupid in this world. He must have lost his mind!” Everyone started laughing at Kaze again. It was then a few black Audi R8s drove into the parking lot, carrying both the local and Sunrise City num
Cetus was stunned for a moment before he shouted, “You fuck! You smashed my car at Taurus Automobile, beat me up, and now you don’t remember me?” “I’m sorry. You do look familiar, but I really can’t recall.” Kaze shook his head and explained, “I smashed too many cars that night and beat up a lot of people. I remember a few names, like Lilian, Tank, and… Uh…” Cetus was so furious that he almost exploded in anger if he could. He pointed at Kaze and said coldly, “Kaze Lee, you better listen up. I am Cetus Snowpine. My father is Haxor Snowpine, the third highest-ranking officer at South River Commerce Institute. “I will slap your face off today and you will remember my name for the rest of your life. I will haunt you in your dreams!” Kaze looked at Cetus as if he was a retard. “Then you are going to be disappointed. To be honest, I slapped too many people recently and I don’t think you are one of the top ten either.” His nonchalance upset Cetus even more. He ignored Cetus and
“Kaze Lee, you!” Trent was the first to react and he pointed at Kaze, shouting furiously. The Lyfes of Geranium City was one of the top four families. Their wealth could rival the entire country. Trent wanted to gain their favor but when Kaze made it sound like that, if it got to Sieg’s ears, things might not sound nice. The others then reacted and were angered by Kaze’s bold words as well. Kaze called them peasants! A useless son-in-law of a second-tier family called them peasants! Trent bellowed, “You dare insult the Lyfe family of Geranium? You’ve gotten even worse. If I don’t teach you a lesson today, you might bring the entire city down one day! “I know about others but you are a peasant to me, so kneel before me!” He tried to pressure Kaze again. Kaze smiled disdainfully. “Old geezer, I didn’t slap you at Astral’s place because you are old, yet now you’re still trying to challenge me with your background?” “Y-You bastard!” Trent was deeply shaken, his face
Being a chief of South River Commerce Institute, Haxor’s position was ranked average in the power hierarchy in the entire state, though it was still powerful. He no longer represented only himself as behind the complicated and interconnected network of connections was a massive and profitable organization. With the driving force of profits, he was able to utilize a terrifying amount of resources and money, especially when he decided to oppress a particular individual. He could bring disaster to the Shangrila Group, Sky Ocean Group, and any other companies related to Kaze. His status was the source of his confidence and dignified manner. Haxor knew Kaze would end badly since he had verbally insulted Sieg. Due to that, he was able to threaten Kaze without qualms and concerns for the consequences. Corax was surprised that Haxor wanted to offer Kaze’s and Darcy’s companies to him. A moment of wonder later, he said with a smile, “Mr. Snowpine, this is a huge gift, given that
“Kaze Lee, you are just a useless son-in-law of a second-tier family, that includes your wife! Your foundation in this city is not strong enough. “You might have gotten lucky and become rich with some decent business, but it’s limited to this small city! Your strongest support is the new mayor. “History proves that without a powerful foundation and support, no matter how rich you are, you will be a pie for everyone else. “Even if I take your companies away, with the Lyfes as my support, no one would dare to say a word!” Haxor was overflowing with arrogance. Each word he spewed contained heavy contempt toward Kaze. Haxor was not invincible in Lilyrose and there was indeed someone who could oppose him, but it was not Kaze, or the young mayor. An ultimatum was given. “Kaze Lee, you have two more minutes to think about it. After that, even kneeling and apologizing would do you no good!” Kaze narrowed his eyes. Haxor strongly believed he had won this little confrontation.
Trent, who had just regained his composure, bellowed, “Kaze Lee, what the hell are you doing? Let Corax go! Are you trying to get yourself and your family killed?” “Piss off, old geezer!” Kaze shouted back without looking at him. Trent got even more upset. Haxor was infuriated when Kaze called him a useless person who spewed nonsense. He pulled his phone out and bellowed, “Kaze Lee, let go of Mr. Corax or I will show you despair!” “What is despair?” Kaze glanced at him with his foot stepped on Corax’s chest. He too pulled his phone out and said, “Why don’t I show you as well?” “You?” Haxor scoffed, “Fine. I’ll let you make the call!” Kaze did not care because he already dialed the number when he pulled the phone out. The call got through quickly. “How may I be of service, God of War?” A strong but humble voice of a middle-aged man came from the other end of the line. Kaze said, “I don’t know how to explain. Why don’t you just talk to him?” He then tossed the
Haxor finally understood what Kaze meant by despair. He was aggrieved. He was in denial.How did Kaze get Loid Farland’s phone number? Who exactly was Kaze Lee? Everyone was shocked by the scene and curious about who was on the other side of the phone. What scared Haxor, a chief of South River Commerce Institute? Loid did not give Haxor a chance to speak. He said, “Give the phone back to Mr. Lee.” “M-Mr. Lee, he wants you on the phone!” Haxor’s hands were shaking as he returned the phone. He noticed the furrowed brows on Kaze, so he quickly used his handkerchief to wipe the phone clean before handing it over. Kaze then took the phone back. He said, “Yes, it’s me. How was it?” “God of War, I am so sorry about this,” Loid apologized. “I have removed Haxor Snowpine from his position. What other requests do you have?” Kaze smiled. “I believe Haxor and his family are not strangers in taking over people’s business and stuff by force. My next request is to confiscate
Charlotte stood behind Kaze throughout the entire confrontation and even she was shocked. One phone call and Haxor’s assets were confiscated. His methods were swift and furious. Not even Astral, or the entire Glitter family, had this kind of power. Ignoring the confused and surprised gazes on him, Haxor looked up to Kaze and spoke with his trembling lips, “M-Mr. Lee, please forgive me.” “You’re begging me now?” Kaze frowned. “Kneel straight!” Haxor immediately straightened his back. Kaze raised his hand, preparing to slap the man’s face, but when he saw the oily and wrinkled face, he did not do it. He tossed a pack of tissue paper to him. Haxor immediately understood what Kaze meant. He picked it up and started to wipe his face clean. Slap! Kaze slapped him in the face. “This slap is for you being ignorant and a fool.” Slap! “This slap is for you abusing your position and status!” Slap! “This slap is for you trying to corrupt the system by colluding with
