Henry was extremely anxious. After getting out of the car, he quickly entered the mansion.At that moment, John and others were already waiting at the door. As soon as they saw Henry, they rushed to greet him as if he were a superstar."Thank goodness! You're finally here, Henry!"They completely forgot about their earlier conversation. Just before they received Norman's call, they had been discussing how to frame Henry."Henry, Lydia is your wife. You must save her," Jennifer urgently pleaded, trying to ensure Henry would not back out."Don't worry, I'll do everything possible," Henry replied. He had no time to consider Jennifer's motives. He then turned to John and asked, "What happened? Tell me everything in detail."John quickly explained the grudges and the situation."So, you're saying the kidnappers called and told you not to call the police or seek outside help. They want 75 million dollars to be transferred to their overseas account," Henry said."Yes, 75 million dolla
Norman almost exploded in anger when he heard Henry's voice. He said coldly, "Who do you think you are to talk to me? Let the old man talk.""No," Henry replied coldly."From now on, I'll represent Mr. Miller. My words are his words. But of course, if you don't want the money, you can ignore me.""Are you threatening me?"John Miller, get over here now if you care about your granddaughter's life!" Norman shouted.John was nervous and was about to speak to defuse the situation, but Henry cut in and warned coldly, "He won't be dealing with you from now on. Talk to me directly."And let me make this clear—if my wife is harmed, even just a little scratch, you won't see a single cent.""Arrogant fool! Who do you think you are? I'll harm her right now and then storm the Miller Mansion for the money," Norman fumed.That sounded like his usual approach, but his senior brother, Keith Murry, had warned against it. The Millers were not as simple as they seemed.No one knew what could hap
"No problem, but where should we find you?" Henry wanted to know that the most. He could make many arrangements if he knew the location in advance.Unfortunately, Norman was not that foolish. He said, "Just follow my instructions, and you'll find the place."But remember, I don't want to see anyone other than you two.""If I find out you're bringing someone else, I'll immediately kill Lydia. The old man should know me well enough. I'm a man of my word.""There won't be anyone else following us," Henry assured. Clearly, Norman was well-prepared, so Henry decided to handle it himself. Continuous injuries had affected Henry greatly of late. If his enemy was powerful, even a master, it could be disastrous.However, it was unlikely that a master would do such things."Alright, get in the car now and wait for my call. I'll tell you where to go."Henry agreed and said, "Is the money ready, Grandpa Miller? Bring everything we need for the transfer. Let's go now.""It's all ready to go.
Even though Lydia looked pale and frightened, Norman could not help but silently marvel at her beauty."So beautiful!" Norman approached, bent down, and removed the cloth from her mouth."What—what do you want to do?" Lydia was terrified, her face filled with fear. The lustful look in his eyes scared her even more. She would rather die if he ever laid his hand on her. She could only accept Henry to touch her.She had tried calling for help earlier but quickly realized that the place was likely abandoned and isolated, rendering her cries useless. At that moment, all she could think about was Henry. He would definitely save her. However, Henry's martial skills would not help as she was held hostage. Moreover, they had made it clear that John had to go there alone."Why are you so scared?" Norman said."I'm quite handsome despite my age. If you agree, I can take you to Islehaven. It's beautiful there, and we can live a happy life together."Lydia was horrified and angrily retorted,
Lydia felt increasingly hopeless as she heard the conversation. They were not going to let her go.They were so formidable, and Henry might not be able to match them even without her being held hostage.She had witnessed Keith in action before—it was almost like teleportation. How could John possibly save her?Seeing Lydia's fearful expression, Keith approached with an evil smile and said menacingly, "Your grandfather will be here soon. You better be obedient. Otherwise, I'll make sure you endure the most brutal punishment."Spit!Initially, Lydia was filled with anger and despair upon hearing his words. She spat at him, thinking it might be better if they just killed her outright to prevent them from harming her grandfather or even Henry."You're asking for it!" Keith shouted.Norman was shocked at her display of disrespect. Keith was ruthless, and he would not tolerate such humiliation. He stepped forward and slapped Lydia across the face, causing her to collapse immediately,
They did not go to some remote wilderness but arrived at an abandoned factory, which was quite spacious and conveniently deserted, making it hard to be discovered.After exiting the car, John quickly tore off the blindfold covering his eyes and immediately assessed the surroundings."Where's my granddaughter, and where's Norman?" he asked urgently."What's the rush? I'm here."Norman emerged with a cold smile, dragging Lydia along with him effortlessly in one hand. Although Lydia was a hostage, they did not threaten her. They were confident that Henry and John could not take anyone away.When Norman and Lydia appeared, Henry's gaze swiftly swept over them. He immediately noticed the finger marks on Lydia's face.He also noticed the blood on Lydia's lips and her slightly disheveled clothing.Henry was furious and decided to summon his vital energy to kill them, even if it would cause significant harm to his body.John's face was also grim as he anxiously asked, "What have you do
John prepared to transfer the money without hesitation, as Norman had been very cooperative. He even released Lydia before they paid the ransom.Keith looked satisfied with John's cooperation, too. Despite being rich, 75 million dollars was still a considerable amount of money for John. Furthermore, catching such a stunning woman was a significant achievement. Keith's future would be promising if his senior brother was satisfied.However, at that moment, Henry suddenly said,"Hold on!"John was slightly taken aback and stopped.Keith's face darkened, and he angrily retorted, "I've already given you what you want. Are you trying to pull something?""I'm not trying to pull anything. Do you remember what I said earlier?" Henry's expression turned cold.Keith inexplicably felt a shock but quickly cursed himself internally, wondering how he could be scared by Henry's gaze."Of course," he replied coldly."Then you should know she must not be harmed."I told you, if she suffers eve
It might take Keith a while to get John to transfer the money.John's face changed completely. He was shocked and angry as he asked,"I can give you the money. Why do you have to do that?""It's because your granddaughter is so pretty that we all fancy her," one of the men replied.Keith could not be bothered to delay any longer and said, "Leave the old man and kill that kid!"When Norman heard Keith's instruction, he laughed maliciously and said, "You brought that upon yourself."And let me tell you, it was me who slapped her. Also, her clothes were disheveled because I intended to rape her."Henry's demeanor turned icy cold instantly. He had been slowly gathering his inner strength to deal with Keith, but his strength surged abruptly at that moment. Despite the apparent strain on his body, he said coldly, "I'll make sure you pray for death today!""Arrogant fool! I can kill dozens of trash like you in minutes."Even though Norman sensed something was off, he was unafraid of He
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
