"Also, check on the two women sitting nearby him. If they're really with him, bring them along too." Mateo's eyes glinted with malice.Even from the screen, he could see the two women's stunning beauty, comparable to Sheena. Of course, Sheena was still the most perfect."Understood!" Barry nodded, though he felt a pang of frustration. He had hoped to pursue them himself, but it seemed Mateo wanted them all to himself.Unaware of Mateo's plane, Sheena leaned closer to Henry and whispered, "Henry, let's have supper after this."Henry noticed the affection in Sheena's eyes and, not wanting her to fall deeper, quickly declined. "Um, I have some things to take care of later. Maybe next time. I'll treat you.""Oh, okay," Sheena said, not pressing further. She sensed Henry's reluctance. Nonetheless, the perfect duet tonight was enough for her.As Henry left the stage, the concert drew to a close. He and Emily quietly slipped away.After Sheena stepped off stage, Penny quickly approache
Martha replied, "You're not bad either. What's your level?"Henry smiled slightly, not revealing much."Nothing significant."Martha understood she was right about his abilities and was about to say something when a black car pulled up. The window rolled down; it was there to pick up Martha and Grace. She did not say anything more and got into the car with Grace.As they left, Henry looked serious and said, "Emily, that woman is not ordinary. Get someone to check on them and see what they're up to.""On it!" Emily waved her phone, showing she had secretly taken their photos."You're quick." Henry laughed."Of course. But she's captivating. Do you like her?""What are you talking about?""Seriously, if you like her, I can arrange to bring her to you.""What do you take me for, some kind of villain?""The Phantom Society is a demonic group anyway," Emily retorted.Henry shook his head."Anyway, that woman is probably a mid-stage Grandmaster and close to late-stage. Don't mes
Henry noticed a young man sitting inside when he walked up to the car. The man looked arrogant, with his shirt collar open."Do you know what mistake you made, dude?" The young man, Barry, glanced at Henry and asked menacingly while holding a baseball bat."No idea," Henry replied, shaking his head. He genuinely had no clue, and no one had told him anything."You don't know?"No idea what you did?" the man who brought Henry angrily shouted. He held back because Barry had not instructed anything yet.Henry frowned and replied coldly, "If you have something to say, just say it. I don't have time for this!""Oh, look at this tough guy," the man sneered and was about to hit him, but Barry waved him off."Look at him. Maybe he really doesn't know what he did or who he offended," Barry said."If he knew who you were, he'd be shaking in his boots, Young Master Hood." The man laughed, and the others joined in.'Is this man from the Hood family, one of the four prominent families in Ea
'Wait a minute, is this about the Sky Avenue Group?' Henry thought."Still guessing?" Barry sneered. "Fine, since we've come this far, let me clarify it for you. Think about what you've done recently.""Sheena?" Henry realized it might be because of her."Ah, finally, you're using your brain. But it's too late. Young Master Newman has ordered us to cripple you. There's no turning back now," Barry said coldly."Do it!""Hold on!" Henry stopped them again.Given the information Barry provided, he decided to give him a chance. "Are you going to cripple me for the Newmans?""Of course. What else do you think we're here for?" Barry retorted."I think you should reconsider. Otherwise, I'm afraid you can't handle the consequences," Henry said."What a joke! You think you can threaten us?" Barry scoffed."I was considering sparing your life. That's off the table now. Kill him and make him disappear!"The situation was getting out of hand, and Henry's eyes reflected his anger. He sai
Thud!A loud impact blasted out as the men surrounded Henry, and Henry knocked all the attackers down. They lay on the ground, clutching their faces and screaming in agony.Henry had used the bat to knock them all to the ground in a short time. Their cries of pain filled the air. Some had their legs broken, while others were more fortunate, with only one leg injured.The attackers looked at Henry in terror, unable to believe how easily he had taken them down; they had not even managed to get close to him.Barry's eyes widened in surprise, but his expression quickly turned to anger and hatred, and he said, "I didn't expect you to be so strong. No wonder you're so arrogant!""Am I? It seems like you guys are the arrogant ones," Henry replied."You think your skills can solve everything? Even if you're ten times stronger, I have a hundred ways to make you suffer," Barry sneered."Show me then." Henry chuckled."No need for that!" Barry shook his head disdainfully."You think you'
Henry looked down with disdain and shook his head. He said, "A bunch of trash! How dare you try to be arrogant in front of me!"His words enraged the group, but no one dared to speak up. After all, no one would be foolish enough to draw attention to themselves at that point.Yet, Barry, who had been hurt from the impact, crawled out from the car and shouted furiously, "Don't get too cocky, dude!"Do you even know who I am? How dare you hurt me?""Didn't you just say so, Young Master Hood?" Henry said indifferently.Barry was speechless as his anger grew."You know I'm from the Hood family then?"Henry was speechless. He wondered if Barry's brain was damaged from the impact.Barry, realizing his explanation might not be clear enough, said, "I'm saying the Hoods aren't just anyone. We're one of the four prominent families in Eastonia, and I'm Young Master Hood."As soon as Barry finished speaking, one of the men who had his leg broken by Henry saw an opportunity to curry favor w
"What do you want to do?" Barry's face paled with fear, his voice trembling with a mix of anger and terror."Didn't I tell you already? You want my life, so I want your legs. Fair enough, right?" Henry said calmly."No, no!" Barry panicked."If you let me go, I'll pretend none of this happened, and I won't hold any grudges."But if you harm me, the Hoods won't let you off. No matter how strong you are, you won't be able to run from the Hoods.""Are you still threatening me?" Henry said indifferently."No, not a threat; it's a plea. A plea!" Barry was genuinely terrified. He wanted to survive that ordeal, knowing he had countless ways to make Henry suffer later."Your attitude is better now, but it's too late." Henry shook his head and walked toward him."How dare you!" Barry yelled frantically."The Hoods will never forgive you!"Henry did not want to waste more time and hit Barry with the bat.The speed was too fast for Barry to react.Thud!"Argh!"Barry felt an excruci
"Young Master Newman has been pursuing Sheena for a while and has been repeatedly rejected. He's furious with her now and may have gone to the hotel where she's staying.""What did you say?" Henry's face paled.Barry jumped in fear, worried that Henry might hit him again. He quickly said, "I've told you everything! Don't hit me again. And it's all true, I swear. I even told him the hotel's location."He's probably already at the hotel by now."Barry was clearly terrified. He tried to direct Henry toward Mateo, unaware of how furious his words made Henry.Henry's expression grew colder. He immediately asked, "Which hotel and which room?"Barry provided the information hurriedly.The hotel was nearby."You better pray Sheena is safe, or you'll regret it deeply," Henry said coldly, delivering a hard kick to Barry.It was clear he had done many despicable things.Barry let out a pained groan as he was sent flying and landed unconscious afterward.After knocking Barry out, Henry
