Severus knew that the chances of Henry forgiving him were remote. However, that was his last chance. He was willing to do anything for his son.Peter knelt and begged, "Please! Please save me."Henry shook his head and said, "Sorry, there's nothing I can do.""No, that's not true. Harry, you are powerful; there must be a way. Please, I beg you." Severus knelt in front of Henry.Henry waved his right hand and did not let him kneel. He shook his head and said, "There's nothing I can do."Peter felt devastated when he heard that. He looked at Henry and shouted, "Henry, it's all your fault! It's all because of you."You were the one who harmed me. I'll come back and haunt you after I die."Perhaps out of his anger, Peter fainted on the spot.Severus' face paled, and he moved toward Peter hurriedly. His body was so weak that he could barely stand up.Robert's expression did not look good, but he could do nothing. He immediately arranged for someone to send them away.They might lo
Robert sighed as he watched Henry in action, listening to his words that gripped the hearts of the Truman family members.He had been the head of the household for many years, but he never appeared as magnificent and influential as Henry.Furthermore, Henry did not seem like an inexperienced young man. Every word he spoke exuded kindness and authority. He was so commanding, truly the ideal head of the Truman family.Kylie was also amazed. Her brother Albert was incredibly talented, and even his son was extraordinary. With Henry in the family, they would surely regain their former glory.No, the family would progress beyond the past glory.Yuvan and the other Truman family members thought so, too. They looked at Henry with admiration and support.With such a genius in the Truman family, there would be no worries that the family would prosper.Fortunately, the crisis brought on by Severus gave Henry the chance to display his strength as soon as he returned. Otherwise, the family m
Severus was just another useless trash in the Truman family. Things would be completely different if Albert were at the helm.As soon as the Newmans entered, they were taken aback by Henry's presumptuous words. It was utterly contrary to everything they knew. What kind of person was that man? How dare he be so arrogant?Everyone was furious when they witnessed Trent's overbearing and arrogant demeanor, yet they refrained from taking action without Henry's order.Trent snorted coldly and said, "Who said he would destroy the Newman family?""Me," Henry said."You?"Trent reacted as if he had heard the biggest joke ever. He sneered, "Who do you think you are? How dare you be so arrogant and presumptuous. Mr. Truman, did I hear you right?"Robert snorted coldly and said, "Trent, you better control yourself. Even your father doesn't dare be so bold in front of me."Trent's expression changed. He said, "Of course, I know your reputation, Mr. Truman. However, for this man here, he's a
As soon as Henry issued his command, the Trumans were stunned. Even though they knew Henry had connections with the Heartless Clan, no one expected him to be so audacious—declaring that he would wipe out Trent and the Newmans on the spot without hesitation."How dare you be so insolent toward the second young master! You're courting death!" Before Trent could respond, Alonso rushed forward and launched a vicious attack to prove himself.Alonso had been with the Trumans for years and had never seen Henry. Given Henry's youth, he assumed he would be easy to handle. After all, Alonso was a peak-stage Transformative Force master; he was extremely strong.Trent smirked inwardly, thinking that Henry had courted his own death. He would be glad to take the new family leader down.However, Henry's calmness puzzled Trent; it was as if he was not concerned at all.At the same time, Jake stepped forward and coldly said, "You're the one courting death!" Without hesitation, he charged forward a
Trent was shocked when he realized such ruthless Grandmasters backed the Trumans.He needed to leave before plotting his revenge. So, he quickly said, "I realized I had misspoke earlier, Mr. Truman. But please, don't act rashly. If I die here, the Newmans and the Trumans will be locked in an endless feud."Henry chuckled coldly. "That wouldn't be a problem if I killed everyone here."The chilling remark sent shivers down everyone's spine. Henry's ruthlessness shocked the crowd, though the members of the Trumans felt a sense of pride. It had been a long time since the Trumans had felt such dignity, especially when facing the powerful Newmans.Trent forced himself to stay calm, thinking that Henry might not understand the actual weight of his words, but he definitely had the ability to kill him.He replied hastily, "N—no need to go that far. Besides, our family's elder, Dean Newman, has recently left seclusion. He has advanced into the peak-stage Grandmaster level. No matter how str
Robert was worried. He knew the feud between the Newmans and the Trumans would never end once that day's events unfolded—especially if one of those two men died.One was a core member of the Newmans' main branch, and the other was Dean's disciple. The death of either would be a massive blow to the Newmans.Despite that, Robert did nothing to stop it.On the other hand, Yuvan could not hold back and tried to stop Henry, but Robert immediately shook his head to silence him. Yuvan let out a bitter smile and kept silent.As a businessman, he valued harmony, which could bring success to business; there was no need to take things that far. More importantly, he believed that their current advantage relied on the support of the Heartless Clan; they would be nothing if they lost that support.Trent had assumed Robert would step in to prevent such a disastrous outcome. After all, the consequences of killing one of them would be catastrophic.However, Robert remained silent, and he even sto
"Weak!" Jake coldly uttered as he raised his hand, piercing through the sword's energy and grasping Spike's sword effortlessly. In the next moment, the sword shattered into pieces. With a swift flick, the broken shards embedded themselves into Spike's body.Spike's eyes widened in disbelief. Even in death, he could not comprehend or accept what had just happened.Everyone else was equally stunned. Over the years, Spike's reputation as the Newmans' genius swordsman had garnered immense respect, and countless people had sung his praises.Yet, before Jake, he had been defeated in an instant.Trent was even more shaken. He realized he had gravely underestimated Jake's strength; he was likely at least at mid-stage Grandmaster level. No matter what, he was destined to die. After all, Dean, a peak-stage Grandmaster, would never let that slip.His fear grew when he saw Jake turn his gaze toward him. Trent stammered, "D—don't act recklessly. I need to return and deliver the message."He w
Upon hearing Henry's words, the crowd fell silent. With Henry's current strength, flanked by two Earthly Immortals, he had the confidence to speak that boldly.The crucial question was how the Supreme Defenders would react.To the average person, the four divine generals were considered the strongest in the country, with Tim, the Cobalt Dragon, even hailed as the best in the world.However, the leaders of those powerful families knew Tim was not first-generation. It was Charlie, the Valor, a terrifyingly powerful figure rumored to have broken into the Earthly Immortal long ago.It was he who had led the operation against Albert all those years ago. That fact was known to a few of the older generation within the Trumans, which was why Yuvan initially tried to stop Henry.After a moment of hesitation, Yuvan said, "Henry, have you ever heard of Charlie the Valor?""Only recently," Henry replied coldly."He was the mastermind behind my father's incident. How could I not know?"A co
