"You!" Charlene was furious when she heard that. "What an idiot! You deserve to die!""Celeste, let's not care about him. Let's go back and ask Ms. Mose what has happened. Perhaps there's still a chance to resolve this.""No, he's implicated in this because of me. I can't just abandon him!" Celeste shook her head when she heard that.She bit her lip; she could not abandon Henry.Two people were walking out of the elevator in the distance. It was Dustin; he had completed his cultivation and breakthrough.Dustin looked surprised and excited. He never thought that he could break through to the Grandmaster level. Even though he was talented, he had been focusing on business rather than on his cultivation. He did not expect Henry to assist him to break through so easily.Jordan had been waiting for Dustin to have dinner together. He walked down with Dustin when the man was ready. They saw the commotion right after that.Several people had gathered around, watching the chaos. It appea
A single shout and a slap had stunned the crowd, especially Celeste and Charlene, who were utterly bewildered by what they had just witnessed.They had seen how respectful Rex had been just moments before. He knew Jordan. Yet the moment they met, Rex was greeted with a slap to the face.Rex was equally shocked. He had completely forgotten about the pain on his cheek, staring ahead in disbelief.After slapping Rex, Jordan started to walk toward Henry.'Did Jordan know that guy? That can't be true. No way!' Rex thought.Before anyone could react, Jordan reached Henry, bowed low, and said with visible fear and respect, "Greetings, Mr. Truman!"I've failed to discipline my employees, and they've disrespected you. Please forgive me!" Jordan's words stunned the crowd in silence, especially Rex, Celeste, and Charlene.The man Rex had tried so hard to curry favor with and even slapped him hard in the face was bowing in fear before Henry. The shock was too much to process.Celeste reali
Charlene's face had turned ghostly pale. She could not help but imagine her own miserable fate as she saw Rex's.It was clear that Celeste was her last hope to survive such a fate.Charlene deeply regretted what she had done to Henry. After all, Henry had never wronged her, and he was even helping Celeste.Rex had finally calmed down, and Jordan breathed a sigh of relief. Just then, Dustin quickly approached. Rex's eyes lit up as he saw Dustin, thinking that he would never be misrecognized Dustin.To his shock, Dustin bowed respectfully to Henry and greeted, "Master!"Rex's face turned a sickly white. His body began to tremble.He finally realized he had offended someone unimaginably powerful."That—that's Mr. Hopper!" Charlene's legs were shaking as she gasped in fear."Mr. Hopper?" Celeste was confused."Yeah, he's the CEO of Skyline Corporation. He's powerful and influential in Hodbridge," Charlene whispered, trembling."Celeste, please help me beg for forgiveness, please!
In contrast, Rex felt increasingly hopeless; he knew he had messed up that time.He quickly crawled over to Henry, knelt before him, and begged for mercy. "I was wrong! I spoke out of turn and offended you. I deserve to die for my mistakes!"Please, Mr. Truman, spare me! I'll do anything, even if it means serving you like a slave for the rest of my life!""Please, please..." He continued to plead, terrified.The bodyguards and assistants standing nearby were filled with dread as they watched Rex beg for forgiveness pitifully. They had finally understood how terrifying Henry was.One of the bodyguards, trembling in fear, prayed Henry would not notice a nobody like him. Even though he had not harmed Henry directly, he had been the one to make threats and throw the first punch.Celeste was stunned by the scene. Someone as powerful and untouchable as Rex was begging for his life.Even Charlene, who felt the terror firsthand, nearly collapsed to her knees in fear. She could not endur
If not for Henry's warning, Jordan might have dealt with Rex, but he would have likely minimized the situation. After all, some of the things that came out about Rex were quite damaging to the company.However, at that time, Jordan did not dare cover anything up. While some shady dealings could be overlooked, Rex was involved in much worse—coercion and threats.Those had to be handled by the police.Jordan was truly afraid of Henry. His warning still echoed in his ears, and he dared not hide a single detail.After all, Rex would face an incredibly tragic fate later.Once Jordan and Rex left, Henry turned his attention to Celeste and Charlene, who were just about to speak.Charlene dropped to her knees and pleaded, "I was wrong, Mr. Truman! I was too blind to recognize you and spoke out of turn."I'm sorry! Please spare me!"Henry paused, surprised. He had not paid any attention to Charlene and never considered her worth his time. Yet she was terrified and even pleaded for forgi
Even though Sheena was masked, Henry recognized Sheena immediately."Henry, you're really here!" Excited and happy, Sheena rushed straight into Henry's arms.It was hard to tell if she did it on purpose.Taken aback and feeling a little helpless, Henry said, "Aren't you worried about scandals?"Sheena blushed and let go of him. She whispered, "I'm not."She even hoped that they would keep the topic hot.At the same time, Celeste and Charlene were utterly stunned. They recognized Sheena, too, but they never expected Sheena to know Henry.Suddenly, a thought popped into Charlene's mind. Was Henry the powerful boss Sheena had mentioned?He would certainly fit the description.Just then, Sheena noticed Celeste and Charlene. She was surprised. "You're here too, Celeste."Celeste quickly replied, "Sheena, Rex caused trouble earlier, but thanks to Mr. Truman, it's all taken care of."Henry nodded and said, "You called me yesterday, but it was too late for me to deal with it. Today
Lydia blushed as she quickly let go of him. She scolded playfully, "Why were you holding on so tightly then?"The next moment, she quickly talked about something else. "Thanks for helping my mom out.""Are you serious about being so formal between us?""Okay, fine. But are you sure everything is sorted?" Lydia asked."It's all taken care of," he replied.Meanwhile, Henry handed her a piece of paper as he talked."Here's a list of questions they might ask at the press conference. Just stick to the plan when you answer."Once the press conference is over, the Everising Chamber of Commerce and others will announce their support for the Miller Group."All in all, the Miller Group will return to normal in three days or less."Lydia was overjoyed. It seemed that Henry had efficiently handled the problems, which had felt overwhelming and nearly impossible to solve."Thank you. I would've been lost without you.""There you go again. If you want to thank me, why don't we get to a pri
Lydia's words were immediately met with a round of applause from the audience. Excitement filled the room, especially among the Miller Group employees and business partners who had close ties with the company.A Q & A session then followed the official announcement. One of the first questions came quickly."Ms. Miller, first of all, we greatly admire your courage and responsibility in taking over the Miller Group. But even if large funds are invested to save the company, how do you plan to handle the victims whose appearances were damaged by the cosmetics?"The crowd went silent, their eyes locked on Lydia. That was a concern on everyone's mind, and they all wanted to hear her response.Lydia remained calm, knowing that the question was anticipated. Henry had even written the answer for her on the paper he had given her. She smiled gently and said, "Rest assured, we've already solved that issue."The audience was taken aback, and the reporter immediately followed up with a questio
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
