Celia thought Sheena was most likely Henry's woman. Otherwise, why would he do so much for her? Even if she was not, their relationship must be close, and she was determined to make them suffer as much as possible.However, Felix was bewildered and frustrated.'Did you not understand what I said? I just told you that I can't beat him. Now, not only do you want me to cripple him, but you also want me to leave him alive. What do you take me for?' Felix thought.When Felix stood still, Celia became furious and scolded, "Why aren't you moving? Are you scared of him?"Felix was genuinely enraged. It was not about being scared but about being unable to win."Fine, it seems I can no longer command you," Celia said angrily. Facing her most hated enemy, with her subordinate disobeying at a crucial moment, made her feel extremely humiliated and furious."Mrs. Hood, it's not that I won't act, it's just that—""I'm giving you one last chance. Cripple him immediately, or you know the consequ
Celia screamed in pain and was stunned for a while. For years, people hardly dared to breathe in her presence. Then, someone slapped her in public.It was unacceptable. When she regained her senses, she jumped up and shouted, "How dare you slap me? I'll kill you!"Henry's expression remained cold as he watched Celia, who had been hysterical. He raised his right hand again, delivering another heavy slap. That slap knocked Celia back to the ground, and because it was a backhand slap, it struck the other side of her face, making it swell even more.Celia was in so much pain that she grimaced and yelled furiously, "You're dead! You hear me? You're dead! I'll never let you get away with this!"Henry chuckled coldly and said, "Now, it's my turn to stop you from getting away with this."Celia was taken aback. How could anyone dare to speak to her like that? She screamed, "What do you mean? Do you know who I am? You can't touch me!""What do you think?" Henry mocked."My husband has p
As no one dared to move under Henry's threats, Celia became even more terrified, especially since Henry was already approaching her. She shouted desperately, "Stop! Are you really going to kill me here?""Why not? Do you think only the Hoods can do such things?" Henry replied coldly, stepping forward and stomping on Celia's right hand."Argh!" Celia screamed in agony as his heel remained pressed on her fingers, causing immense pain."Let me go! Let me go, please!""We're just getting started," Henry said, looking down at her, implying there were many more ways he could torment her.That scared Celia even more. She pleaded, "No, no! Please, I beg you, please let me go."The pain was unbearable and desperate. Celia, who had always lived in comfort, could not endure such agony and could only beg for mercy.Sheena and the others watched in a daze. Even though the scene was too brutal to watch, their anger was somewhat appeased."She deserves it!" Penny muttered angrily.Carrie agr
"Don't! Please! I'm begging you, can't we change it to something else? I can't accept being humiliated," Celia pleaded desperately."You lost your dignity the moment you hit them. You have 45 seconds left," Henry said coldly, the dagger in his hand gleaming menacingly.As time slowly ticked by, cold sweat poured down Celia's face."Five, four, three, two—""I'm sorry! I was wrong!" Celia could not bear the torment and fear any longer. She crawled forward and knelt in front of the three women.Her sudden movement startled Sheena.The onlookers outside were stunned; no one expected Celia to kneel. They wondered if that young man dared to kill her.However, they did not feel the same oppressive, murderous aura that Sheena exuded, which made all the difference. They might have done the same if they had been in Celia's position.That was the outcome Henry had intended.Sheena and the others were utterly taken aback. They could not believe that Celia had knelt and crawled toward the
Those words left Penny embarrassed. The onlookers could not help but smile wryly, feeling that the scene was rather peculiar.At that moment, Celia was so numb with pain and humiliation that she barely noticed it anymore. She had experienced physical pain like never before and had been utterly humiliated in a way she had never imagined. It was as if she had been relentlessly trampled into the ground.Ignoring Celia, Henry said calmly, "Those who hit others, step forward now."The bodyguards who had attacked them earlier turned pale. They had been lying on the side, some even pretending to be unconscious, constantly fearful of Henry's retribution. They had hoped they might escape unnoticed, but no one could flee."Don't think you can get away by playing dead. I'll give you the last ten seconds," Henry said coldly, scanning the surroundings.His gaze was so intimidating that a few bodyguards quickly crawled and knelt before Henry, begging, "We're sorry! We were wrong. Please, sir, f
After all, even though the thug was vicious, his actions did not warrant death.The scene terrified the other pretender. Without waiting for Henry to speak, he jumped up and confessed quickly, "I'm sorry, I did it. I admit it. I'm stepping forward on my own.""Too late!" Henry replied coldly."Break one of your own legs.""Yes, sir!" Without any hesitation, the man found a tool and brutally broke his own leg. Even though he was terrified, seeing the miserable state of his companion left him no choice.Celia, who regained her composure, looked at Henry with anger and resentment. She knew that it was not the time to confront him. Otherwise, she would only suffer more. That man was a madman, reckless and fearless. She vowed to make him regret it.After dealing with the troublemakers, Henry no longer cared about them. He walked toward Sheena and said, "Let's go."Sheena nodded as she helped Carrie, who was more seriously injured. Penny joined them.As they left, Henry turned back a
Back in the room, Carrie hesitated momentarily before saying, "Mr. Truman, I know you're powerful. But to avoid unnecessary trouble, should we go to the hospital?""Why?" Henry asked."So we can document our injuries and prove they caused significant harm, so your retaliation is justified. Otherwise, the police might not side with us," Carrie explained.Henry shook his head. "Even if we have injuries, taking it to the police won't help us. They'll only be held responsible.""Then—""Don't worry. Since I took action, I don't care about this.""In that case, I doubt Mrs. Hood will let this go. Even though they're not as strong as you, they're still one of the four prominent families in Eastonia. We should be cautious," Carrie said.She knew how powerful the Hoods were, especially Vito Hoods, the underground emperor rumored to control both the legal and illegal sides of Eastonia.She felt it was important to be cautious without saying it outright."You're right. I'll make a call,
"No matter what, this can't happen again. I'll arrange for someone to protect all of you," Henry said, deciding to find someone to protect Sheena until they became stronger.For close associates like Cheryl, he had arranged for someone to protect her secretly. As for Chansey and Emily, they were already Grandmasters themselves and did not need additional protection.As for Lydia, she had more than one top female master around her. However, Lydia was unaware of that—protecting his wife was crucial.After making all the arrangements, Henry left.It was almost noon, so he called Becky to check if Lydia had ordered lunch. When he found out she had, he told Becky to cancel it and had the hotel prepare several great dishes instead.The hotel quickly prepared various dishes, such as lobster and Wagyu beef. They instructed all the chefs to focus solely on preparing food for Henry. After all, Henry had taken Mrs. Hood down so thoroughly and ordered lunch calmly afterward.Henry chose thre
At that point, everything there was over.After everyone dispersed, Shane laughed as he stepped forward. "Henry, you gave me a big surprise this time."I thought you'd need at least five years to catch up to them. I didn't expect you to have achieved such strength. This is entirely beyond my imagination."May I ask what level of strength you are at now?"Shane was curious.Henry shrugged helplessly and said, "I don't know it. There's no one to compare with."I only know that if I use my full strength, I can destroy a city with one single wave of my sword."Everyone was utterly stunned, and they murmured helplessly, "Pervert!"Shane was speechless. He shook his head. "Young man, you really amazed me. By the way, when are you getting engaged? Don't delay for too long; I don't have much time left."He was delighted with Henry and was hoping to be able to attend their wedding.Henry smiled and said, "Elder Master Drayson, have you forgotten what I said yesterday? I'll help you re
Henry's domineering words made the people of Aurelia excited.They were so enthusiastic that they had to express their excitement.However, they were confused when Henry ordered them to launch the missiles.What did Henry mean? Why did Henry order the launching of the missiles? Everyone was curious.Everyone else was dumbfounded, too. What order was that?Everyone had doubts in their mind.At the same time, the person at the missile base was sweating profusely. He had to execute the order under any circumstances, and he was so nervous that he could not help but reconfirm the order again.Frederick nodded. He had looked into the matter personally to ensure everything was in place without error.If he had not seen Henry's extraordinary strength with his own eyes, he would not have believed that Henry had planned everything. He had even met with Frederick earlier in the morning and made the request.Henry wanted to show how powerful he was in deterring anyone from creating unnece
There were words of praise, excitement, and admiration in Aurelia.In their opinion, Henry was Aurelia's protector.In other places, people were amazed and fearful of Henry's strength.Henry did not care about that. He remembered that there were many troublemakers earlier.In a deep voice, he said, "I heard that over these past few days, many looked down on Aurelia's battling skills because no one was here to deal with them."In that case, I'll let them see how powerful Aurelia's battling skills are. There's no need to trouble those masters who are in seclusion. Those present today can do the same job."Step forward, Jensen."Jensen was stunned. When he heard Henry's order, he quickly gathered his thoughts. He stepped forward and said respectfully, "Yes, Mr. Truman."Jensen was a powerful master trained by Henry. His terrifying aura was clearly displayed at that moment.In an instant, the whole world could feel his strong force. The powerful force gathered in the air made ever
Henry waved his right hand. Jorge flew out of the platform and landed near the few Islehaveners beside their ambassador.Henry had sent Jorge back to them.Next, it would be Lucifer's turn.The audience looked at Henry with admiration and were shocked.Shane and the others who supported Henry were really excited. Earlier, they had thought Aurelia would face a big crisis. They did not expect Henry to solve the matter so easily.Although Lucifer had yet to make a move, it was impossible for Lucifer to defeat Henry so easily."Lucifer, you're up," Henry said.Everyone's heart trembled.The crowd was familiar with Lucifer. He became famous after the battle the day before.It was obvious that Lucifer was much stronger than Jorge. Most importantly, he represented the powerful Westin.Lucifer snorted coldly. He stepped forward and spread his fourteen wings. He looked overpowering and extremely terrifying.The huge pressure created by the wings made everyone feel breathless.Howeve
Jorge's expression looked horrible. He had already taken the first step. Everything would go in vain if he were to give up.So, he got up, knelt in front of Henry again, and shouted, "I'm sorry, I was wrong!"Slap, slap!Another few heavy slaps on him.Jorge was utterly stunned; he was also shocked and angry."Your voice is too loud. It's disturbing," Henry said.At that moment, any fool would know Henry did it intentionally. He deliberately played tricks on Jorge.That made the Islehaveners feel even more ashamed.An ambassador of Islehaven who was watching the battle stepped forward and said, "Stop! Stop! You're destroying—""Get lost," Henry snorted coldly and waved his right hand.Even though the ambassador was a few hundred meters away, he immediately felt a massive pain in his chest. He flew backward about ten meters away and fainted as he landed on the ground.He was then dragged away.Everyone was shocked.Jorge's expression looked extremely ugly. The pain on his c
Henry's voice contained powerful mental pressure. He controlled it so well that it only targeted Jorge."No!" Jorge gritted his teeth and roared. The power around him gathered crazily, forming a huge and terrifying force he was trying to resist.Everyone was shocked when they saw that.A huge tornado formed above Jorge's head, and a powerful force burst out crazily. Once again, he displayed his amazing and terrifying strength.The overwhelming pressure shocked everyone.Everyone in the country saw that. They were extremely excited. "I knew it. Jorge was only fooling with him. He's showing his real strength now.""That's right. He's finally fighting back. He must teach that guy a cruel lesson."They were all excited. However, their excitement disappeared the next moment, and their expression looked horrible.At that moment, Henry, with a disdainful look, raised his right hand and pressed on the tornado lightly.The terrifying force on Jorge dissipated completely in an instant.
"He's my idol, too!""Mine, too.""Stop pretending. Weren't you arrogant and proud earlier? Keep it going."At that moment, the people of Aurelia cheered, both online and those who were there. Everyone who knew Henry and was close to him was also extremely excited.In contrast, the faces of the people of Islehaven looked ugly; they could not believe what they had seen.They saw Jorge as powerful as God. How could he be crushed? He was even slapped in public, equivalent to a slap on everyone's face. They were furious."Cheater! He must be cheating!""That is a conspiracy. It must be a conspiracy!""Jorge, did you hold back? You wanted them to be happy first and then would beat them out of their asses later?""Get up! Show them how powerful the people of Islehaven are."Similarly, the reaction of the people from the Westin countries was not good either. Everyone was shocked.Some were amazed at Henry's power.Of course, many other countries expressed their support for Aurelia
Jorge frowned when Henry walked up to the platform. He realized he did not manage to sense Henry's strength and power at all.There were only two possibilities. The first was that Henry was so much stronger than himself that Jorge could not sense his strength. Jorge had already managed to sense Shane and Lucifer's strength.Henry could not be much stronger than the two of them.The other possibility was that Henry had learned a secret technique to conceal his strength.If Jorge did not guess wrongly, it should be the latter.'Trying to scare me with that hideous trick?'Jorge sneered and said disdainfully, "Henry, you coward. Are you finally willing to come forward now? I thought you were going to stay hidden forever."Henry smiled, but his smile was a little cold. He said, "Hide? Since when do I need to hide? About half a month ago, you and your master, Lucifer, had to flee from Aurelia. Have you forgotten about that?""Nonsense!"Jorge was furious when he heard that. First,
"I do hope there are stronger masters today; at least let me warm up a little. Otherwise, it'll be really boring for me."Also, I won't be holding back today. Life and death are not considerations once we're on the platform. I'd like to see if anyone in Aurelia isn't afraid of death."As soon as he said that, many people commented again. Many people were thinking about Henry, whom Jorge had mentioned, but Henry had yet to appear.Many Aurelian masters were furious when they heard Jorge's words and were about to rush to the platform.Flynn stepped forward and was about to go up onto the platform.However, Henry took the lead and went to the platform.Manish, standing next to him, was stunned for a moment. He was the strongest master among the several Worship Masters. Manish was stronger than Albus, but he did not stop Henry.Albus specifically instructed him to arrange for Flynn to join the fight first. Even though he would not be able to defeat Jorge, at least he could exhaust t
