Sebastian could not help but feel nervous as Henry's gaze swept over him. Henry had already begun walking inside when Sebastian came to his senses.Bowen exchanged a glance with Sebastian before following suit.The others also followed them inside.Jeffery frowned as he looked at those who had followed him inside. "Wait for us in the living room. I have a matter to discuss with Mr. Truman."Everyone agreed, even Bowen and Sebastian. Despite their curiosity about what Jeffery and Henry would talk about, they did not dare defy Jeffery's instructions.Henry walked straight inside and soon arrived at the detention area led by Jeffery. The guard was someone Henry had expected—the master of Transformative Force he had defeated previously. It seemed Jeffery wanted to be perfectly safe.Meanwhile, Ryan and Lewis wore forlorn expressions in the detention area. They had assumed they could flee Hodbridge safely and leave Aurelia behind. They did not expect Jeffery to pursue them; he even us
"Let me know the amount," Ryan said. However, Lewis was shocked and fearful. Ryan did not recognize Henry, but Lewis did. Jeffery's attitude toward Henry made it clear that Henry's identity was extraordinary.If that were the case, everything would make sense.It was all because of Henry!"Do you still have the money you swindled?" Henry asked lightly. He thought the money had already been transferred overseas and could not be recovered."Who are you?" Ryan asked. Even though he had seen Jeffery with Henry, he felt something was off.After all, Henry was very young."How dare you arrange assassins to kill me repeatedly? And you don't even know me?" Henry shook his head."Kill you?" Ryan was stunned."Dad, he's Henry!" Lewis immediately said."What!" Ryan was dumbfounded. That young man was the Henry they had been trying to kill.Everything seemed clear. However, he had no idea why Jeffery would treat the young man like that.Ryan could not help but ask, "What has he given yo
Lewis appeared pitiful, but Henry clearly had no sympathy for him, saying, "Weren't you acting all high and mighty before, always boasting about being superior?"Why are you kneeling and apologizing to me, a lowly person, now?" Lewis had put aside his humiliation and begged for mercy. "I've been ignorant and was unaware of your extraordinary abilities. But now I'm kneeling before you in repentance.""Don't worry! I'll never bother Lydia again—"Before Lewis could finish his sentence, Henry kicked him hard and sent him flying to the side. Lewis collapsed to the ground, sweating from the pain. However, he did not mind the pain; he got up quickly, even though his bound hands were inconvenient."You're not worthy of mentioning Lydia's name," Henry spoke coldly after the kick."Yes, I understand. I'll explain everything to Ms. Miller and ensure she understands your intentions," Lewis said. He recognized that he had caused numerous misunderstandings between Henry and Lydia."Forget i
However, he never got the command from Henry.Ryan was nearly scared to death. In a trembling voice, he said, "No! I'll tell you everything!"Jeffery had to stop. He asked coldly, "Where's the money, and how do we get it back?""The funds have already been transferred to my offshore account. I need to go there in person to transfer it out," Ryan replied quickly."So troublesome?""It's the only way. It's my life-saving measure," Ryan explained. Given Ryan's circumstances, it seemed entirely reasonable, and Jeffery believed him. However, Henry frowned and said, "I can't wait for such trouble. Forget the money; kill him!"'Damn it! Kill me?' Ryan was about to go insane.He said, "Wait! All you have to do is send someone with me. Once we arrive, we can transfer the funds.""How much?" Henry asked."About 75 million dollars!""Only 75 million dollars?""That's all I have—everything I scammed and my own money. There were plenty of greased palms in between.""The amount is not wo
Ryan and Lewis were shocked. The Brandon Group was disorganized and in debt. Whoever took over would be in trouble, but they might be able to get out of debt. It was a massive opportunity, and Henry was willing to trade it for their lives."It's not a problem at all; I can afford it," Henry replied casually, while Jeffery smiled bitterly and felt helpless.Maybe Henry had his own reasons.Ryan could not believe his luck. He said, "Do you really want the Brandon Group, Mr. Truman?""Yes!" Henry said. There was no lingering resentment between them, and he had no time to argue with them.The reason for acquiring Brandon Group was that it would be revitalized once the provincial government's decision became public. The authorities would almost certainly seize control even if Brandon Group went bankrupt. However, the news had yet to be made public. So he wanted to take over Brandon Group before word spread."However, the Brandon Group is currently facing bankruptcy. If you take over,
The Brandon Group's missing 300 million dollars would mostly be recovered. The people from Golden Liberty had already apprehended someone and confirmed that most of the money was still intact.Furthermore, the vast wasteland near East City would contribute to the Brandon Group's revival.No one would have expected such a remote and polluted area, with a nearby garbage dump, to be chosen as the development site for a new district, let alone the core area of a new city. That abandoned land, which the Brandon Group was about to discard, would quickly become a moneymaker.Bowen and Sebastian had not departed. They could not pass up such a rare opportunity. They had waited quite some time. Fortunately, Henry and Jeffery eventually made it out.Jeffery said, "You haven't left yet, Bowen?""Hey, Jeffery, I would also like to meet your important guest."Hello, Mr. Truman. It's nice to meet you. I'm Bowen York. I'm in the jewelry business." Bowen shamelessly went up to meet them.After a
"Don't worry. He's interested in the cosmetics industry. Furthermore, the research team you hired is extremely capable, and the skincare products they created are excellent," Sarah said."I hope so." Lydia sighed.The Millers had been experiencing a particularly difficult time, with the real estate market becoming increasingly sluggish. Lydia advocated for cosmetics, a new industry. After all, as a woman, she knew that women's money was easy to earn, but the key was to have high-quality products. She had already invested over 15 million in that venture. If there were no positive outcomes, it would most likely all be for naught.Less than 30 minutes after they arrived, First Young Master Jones, Fyman Jones, arrived. Sarah immediately contacted Lydia to welcome Fyman. After all, he was First Young Master Jones! The Joneses' empire spanned multiple industries and was extremely powerful. They were one of the four great families of Hodbridge.When Fyman first saw Lydia, he could not tak
Sarah, who was on the sidelines, said, "Lydia had reached her limit, Young Master Jones. Why don't we finish these three glasses, and we'll talk about cooperation afterward?"Lydia heard that and realized she could not hold out much longer after three glasses. She was unable to refute Sarah's suggestion, though. After some thought, she decided she could get by with just three glasses.Fyman noticed Sarah's signal and said, "Alright, three glasses it is."He did not explicitly agree but instead started a discussion.Lydia nodded, and Fyman agreed. Sarah filled a glass for her, and she picked it up, ready to drink it all in one go. Then, someone pushed the door open, capturing everyone's attention right away."Don't force yourself, Lydia. Three glasses, right? I'll drink for you!"Henry had hurried over. That restaurant belonged to the Seltzers, and he had run into Dustin. It was simple to determine which private room Lydia was in.Sarah's expression soured when she saw Henry. She
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
