There were two cities between Bloomington and Pine City, putting them over 500 kilometers apart.Since it was nighttime, there were few cars on the expressway, except for large trucks carrying logistics.At dawn, the convoy arrived at Pine City's well-known Serenity Academy!It was said that a famous scholar founded the academy a thousand years ago. Since then, many notable figures had graduated from the academy and served as officials and generals.Next to Serenity Academy was the Gerd family's Serenity Hotel, the country's only seven-star hotel.Chad spotted Horace Gerd after the convoy arrived at the Serenity Hotel parking lot.He was a thin, elderly man with gray hair, a lively spirit, and a friendly smile. His behavior was very elegant."Mr. Wiles, we've arranged everything at your command." Grayson saluted and thanked Horace. "Thank you for your cooperation, Mr. Gerd!""You're welcome. My father may be retired, but he was once a prominent figure in government. He always p
Grayson jumped up when he saw the old man. "Old God of War, what are you doing here?"Old God of War?Chad looked at the old man, surprised, and politely asked, "Greetings, God of War. May I know who wants to see me?"Grayson glared at Chad. "Are you stupid? Don't ask too many questions. Just go."Then, he pushed Chad.After nodding to Grayson, the old man led Chad away.The Serenity Hotel's top floor featured a complete set of super suites that resembled palaces.The entire suite was over a thousand square meters and extremely luxurious. After the old man brought Chad in, Chad was searched twice.When they entered the suite's living room, Chad noticed two elderly men chatting on the sofa."He's here. Let's ask him directly. Can you cure this illness?" Chad recognized the two of them after hearing their voices.Sir Holt or Kevin Holt and Riker Gerd!Kevin smiled and waved at Chad, saying, "Come over here and sit. Let Mr. Gerd look at you!"Chad addressed them. "Sir Holt, Mr
"So, you knew about that, Mr. Gerd! Alright! I'll try it at the charity auction."Kevin smiled and said, "Tonight, even if you buy the goods with your eyes closed, it would be hard to buy any counterfeit goods.""All right, I've said everything I needed to say. Let the kid go. We should discuss our own issues."When Riker spoke, Chad stood up and said his goodbyes before leaving.Chad stepped into the elevator and looked at the phone Riker had given him.The money in that phone was unbelievable.Kevin's words echoed in his mind. "Only the three of us are aware of this task. If you're discovered, please contact us directly."Chad smirked bitterly, murmuring, "Even if this kind of thing gets out, no one will believe it!"As the elevator descended, a man and woman entered."Mr. Williams, that guy is here again.""Tell him we don't have any money!""Isn't that bad? Payment for the project has been delayed for three years!"Williams smiled proudly and said, "If we continue to de
"Luke, this has nothing to do with him. If I want to find you, I have my own ways!"Quentin pushed Chad away and shouted at Luke.Chad wanted to help, but Quentin pushed him away again, saying, "Chad, don't interfere! You can't handle this. Luke is a lunatic!"Quentin rushed toward Luke, drawing a knife from his pocket."Stop!"Chad moved quickly, grabbing Luke and taking the knife from Quentin simultaneously. However, Quentin was frantic. "I said don't get involved! Just leave!""Too late to leave now!"Luke's proud voice echoed. Over a dozen martial artists entered the hotel lobby.Chad noticed they were all skilled fighters, most likely from the prestigious martial arts family, the Williams family, led by Marshawn Williams.Luke sneered as he approached Quentin, patting his face mockingly. "Quentin, you want money, right? I'll give you the money. If you break one arm, I'll pay you 150,000. Break all four limbs, and I will pay you 600,000 dollars. If you die, I'll pay you 1.
When Luke heard that voice, he was furious. Who the hell was that?When he saw who it was, he was taken aback. "Bill Hawthorne? So, you're attending the banquet, too?"Bill dismissed the remark as he approached Chad, saying, "I'm not that familiar with you!"Luke smiled at them and said, "I didn't expect you to have such trashy friends, Bill.""Trashy friends?" Bill looked at Chad and said self-deprecatingly, "Yeah, that's right! Compared to him, we're all garbage!"He was telling the truth. A hundred Bills could not match Chad's abilities.Furthermore, if Bill had not been born into the Hawthorne family, he would not have achieved his success and status.That statement prompted Luke to pause. Could Chad have an unknown identity?However, the woman beside Luke said, "Mr. Williams is from the Williams family. They are among the few families in Hacniane with a more extensive history! None of those families bears the name Jennings!"Those words jolted Luke awake. He looked at Bil
Weldon had nothing to do after arriving in Pine City, so he left the hotel and wandered around.He had not eaten yet, so he went to a fried chicken shop and bought a lot of fried chicken to take back to the hotel.However, as soon as he entered the Serenity Hotel, he heard someone call his nickname and responded instinctively.When he saw Chad fighting with someone, he became alarmed and asked, "Mr. Jennings, is everything alright?""I'm fine. I'll leave this to you."Chad saw Weldon and decided not to trouble himself. He was confident that Weldon could handle Luke.It was simply common sense. Anyone who could return from above possessed strength beyond ordinary men!Weldon grinned. He placed the chicken on the ground and said, "No problem!"Luke looked at Weldon and got even more excited, shouting, "You seem even stronger than him! Great! Fight me!"Weldon grinned fiercely and said, "As you wish!"Boom!Swoosh!No one expected Weldon to leave the spot after he finished spe
Chad initially thought his sister had gotten lost because of him. However, it seemed like his sister's disappearance resulted from a power struggle among multiple factions.After Quentin had left, Chad looked at his phone. It was 9:00 a.m.After all the commotion, Chat lost the desire to wander around and returned to the hotel to relax.Matilda called at that exact moment. Chad paused before he answered the call, asking impatiently, "What do you want?""What's with the attitude? Can't I look for you for something important? Why aren't you at Temple Road?""I'm outside. If you want to discuss remarriage, don't bother."Matilda was furious. "Who wants to remarry you?! I have something to discuss with you. Where can I find you?""If it's something important, just tell me. I'm out with friends right now, not in town.""Okay, forget it. Go and do your thing. Be safe!"Matilda hung up with a smile on her face.It had been a while since they had bantered like that.When she was dat
"Madam Jade, sorry for the trouble!" Upon hearing the old lady's words, Terry respectfully expressed his gratitude.Jade waved her hand and said, "It's nothing! I've been the Williams family's attendant for 40 years, so managing your affairs is no problem."Terry said with great respect, "I apologize for allowing you to witness this; my son's incompetence has caused problems for the Williams family.""I think Luke is exceptional. Among his peers, few in the whole country are as capable as him!" Jade said, and then her tone suddenly turned serious."Whoever tries to harm the Williams family won't be forgiven. I'll take care of them myself!" she declared sternly.Terry quickly responded, "No need to bother you; I'll handle it.""Very good! Then I'll retire to the hotel." Jade left the hospital.Terry saw her off and returned to the ward. There, he found his wife, Linda, applying medication to their son's severed arm."You're back. This is the Shaw family's miraculous bone regener
