The Shaw family, though formidable, still lagged significantly behind the four prominent families in Eastonia.

Members of the Shaw family, particularly Jack's brother, Malcomn, and his son George were eager to leverage their ties with the Scott family to ascend socially and gain substantial benefits.

Only Melrose wore a troubled expression; she knew her daughter liked Mike. She had previously covertly allowed Jane to escape to Hodbridge in pursuit of Mike.

Reluctantly, Jack agreed to the arrangement for the sake of the family's interests.

Jane kept her head down, typing away on her phone screen, sending numerous messages to Mike.

Mike had not responded despite her efforts, and the family discussions were nearing conclusion without his arrival, leaving her increasingly uneasy.

Even though she understood Mike's family lacked the power to intervene decisively, how could he not at least attempt to challenge that situation? Perhaps the assurances of his influential brother-in-law were

    Henry had sharp ears. He had heard what Elise said as soon as he entered the hall. Immediately, he loudly expressed their opinions at the door.After they spoke, they walked in.Everyone was in shock.Who dared to talk nonsense and give any opinion at that moment? They turned around and looked over and saw three people appear at the door.When Jane saw them, she could not hide her excitement. She stood up and shouted, "Mike!"George was furious when he saw those people, and his face paled. He did not expect Mike to dare to break into the Shaw family to take Jane away.They ignored his threats and did not take him seriously. That was utterly unbearable.However, Malcomn, Jack's younger brother, was furious. He said coldly, "Who are you? How dare you break into the Shaw family and talk nonsense?""Uncle, he's that lousy Mike who's after Jane."George immediately pointed at Mike, who was standing next to Henry.Nathan's face darkened when he heard that. He knew that Jane liked a

    "Father, are you really going to ignore my future and force me to my death?" Jane stared at her father with tears in her eyes, her voice tinged with anger.Jack looked embarrassed, but the family's intentions were clear. It was also about safeguarding the family's interests. Otherwise, the consequences of offending the Scott family would be too dire.He said helplessly, "I'm not forcing you, but Young Master Scott is the best match for you.""That's right, Jane. Young Master Scott is young, handsome, and talented. Many girls from prominent families in Eastonia would wish to marry him but won't have the chance. Don't be fooled by that useless guy," Malcomn said immediately."Yes, Jane. The Miller family is just a small family, and Mike is nothing but garbage. You will never achieve anything in your life if you're with him," George said emphatically.However, Jane shook her head and said, "I don't care. I only love Mike, and I want to marry him."Henry was secretly surprised. He ha

    Everyone was stunned for a moment. Where did that young man come from? Did he know what he was doing?Even Jane was taken aback. Who was he? Confusedly, she looked at Mike, who whispered, "He's my brother-in-law."Jane was momentarily shocked. Was he the brother-in-law the Miller family had mentioned? He did not seem intimidating at all; he looked like an approachable ordinary person.George could not tolerate it any longer. He sneered, "Hey, who do you think you are? Who gave you the right to speak here?""I certainly have the right to speak. Let me introduce myself. My name is Henry Truman, and I'm Mike's brother-in-law. I'm not here to take Jane away."Henry ignored the others' contempt and disdain and continued, "I'm here to assess if Jane is truly suitable for Mike."Everyone was speechless upon hearing that.'Do you know what you are talking about? Who do you think you are?'However, Henry seemed oblivious to his perceived immaturity. He said, "I've observed that Jane pos

    Everyone was slightly stunned, including Jack, but he still took the tablet from Henry. His expression turned extremely grim as he viewed the contents inside.Most troubling of all, there was more than one woman involved. Nathan was revealed as a pervert. While Jack had heard rumors of Nathan's youth and fickleness before, he had hoped for change in the future, but the reality was far worse than he had imagined.At that moment, Melrose stood up, her expression drastically changing upon seeing the tablet's contents. Even though Jack quickly turned off the video, her gaze hardened.'I will never allow my daughter to marry someone like Nathan, no matter what. Otherwise, her life will be ruined.'Jack swiftly deleted the video and returned the tablet to Henry, speaking in a low voice, "Thank you for the video. I've deleted it. I hope you don't have a backup."He glared at Nathan. "Otherwise, not even God can save you!"Henry was stunned. 'What did he mean? Was he trying to protect Na

    "Yes!"I want to be with her, even if it costs me my life. Please don't worry. We can protect Jane even without the Shaw family," Mike said, thinking of Henry, the Master of Golden Liberty."How arrogant you are. You come from a mediocre family in Hodbridge. What capability do you have to fight against the Scott family?" Nathan retorted coldly, sensing Jack's unusual stance.Mike was about to reply when Jack interrupted, "Very well, Mike. If you're resolved, I will grant your wish."Everyone was shocked by Jack's sudden decision.No one, not even the Shaw family, anticipated that. Was it because of the video?Jane was also taken aback. She had not expected that at all."Jack!"Malcomn could not hold back. "What are you doing? What about the Shaw family?"George could not believe his ears either. "Father, you can't do this. Jane made a mistake out of ignorance and confusion. You can't indulge her just because you love her.""Enough!"Jack waved his hand, then turned to the gr

    Nathan sneered viciously, taking a step forward. "You'll regret this soon enough. Don't come crawling to me begging for mercy when the time comes," he taunted, laughing.Hearing Nathan's mocking words, before Mike could respond, Jane interjected anxiously, "Father, you—""Jane, what happens next isn't within my control. He claims he can protect himself; now it's up to his own abilities," Jack interrupted firmly."What abilities do you expect him to have? He's from an ordinary family. How can he stand up to the Scott family?" Jane asked."Jane, enough. You know the power of the Scotts. I'm staking the Shaw family's fate on this."Melrose finally spoke up, shaking her head. "It's up to him now. If he can survive this, I'll support you two being together. But ever since you two started dating, he's been destined to face the Scott family. If he can't overcome this, you'll have no future."Jane grimaced, realizing the Shaw family could not help her. She turned to Mike urgently. "Mike,

    Jack's expression soured. After all, that involved the Shaw family.Elise and Nathan being assaulted in Shaw territory would undoubtedly have repercussions.Malcomn and George were stunned, struggling to collect their thoughts.Elise and Nathan erupted in fury. Nathan, in particular, bellowed, "You're dead! No one can save you, I guarantee it!"He whipped out his cell phone and dialed his father.Malcomn, observing the situation, snapped angrily, "How dare you lay hands on Young Master Scott and Mrs. Scott! George, what are you waiting for? Take them down!"If they did not act swiftly, they might not receive credit when the Scott family arrived and might even incur blame.George finally snapped out of his shock. "You're courting death," he growled, charging fiercely toward Henry.He had trained for years under Lance, the owner of the Elite Fighting Club. Although his aptitude was very poor, his strength was quite acceptable then, reaching peak-stage Bright Force.Jane leaped t

    "Look at how nervous you are. How can you propose to Jane if you're such a coward?"Henry shook his head. "I just wanted to ask—when will your father arrive?""It'll be within half an hour." Though his father was not far, there was still quite a distance to cover.His father had promised to come immediately, showing no intention of deploying additional forces against Henry."Half an hour? That's too slow," Henry sighed, shaking his head.Everyone smiled bitterly. They had seen people courting death, but never someone so eager to meet their demise. Wesley's arrival would likely spell a miserable end for Henry.Henry paid no mind to their incredulous looks. He glanced at the table and said, "Since we have time and plenty of delicious fruit here, let's all take a seat and eat leisurely. We'll wait patiently."Taking a seat, he poured himself some tea and began munching on nuts, inviting Mike and Lydia to join him.Mike escorted Jane and Lydia to the table, and they all settled in

    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?

    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
