After all, that was not their first time encountering such a situation.Before Diane and the others could say anything, Moby immediately said, "This handsome young man here is Arnie Pearson, the scion of a second-tier family. If you think about it, it's quite formidable for a family to be recognized as a second-tier family in a place like Skystream City. An upper-tier family like his is considered to be one of the truly wealthy families."However, Severin said with a cold smile, "I'm sorry, but we've never met you, and we're not the kind of people who would want to take advantage of other people's kindness. We appreciate your gesture, but we'd be more comfortable staying in a hotel."Severin was perceptive enough to know that Arnie had ulterior motives for being courteous to them, but he nevertheless refused politely because he did not want to cause trouble in a place like Skystream City.Arnie's lips twitched a few times, and he did not expect that Severin would reject him so deci
Severin sighed helplessly when he looked at Arnie's stubbornness. He took a step forward and said, "Are you sure? If you want to court death, then I'll show you what true despair is so you don't go around thinking that you can do whatever you want in Skystream City.""Haha, you're one mad lad! Get him, boys! Kill him and capture all his women!" Arnie ordered his bodyguards with a wave of his hand. He fumed when he saw Severin fearlessly making such ruthless remarks to him."Charge!" The bodyguards rushed up immediately.Their attainment was not very low since most of them have reached level seven or level eight profound master. In smaller cities, those who had similar strength levels were usually the leaders of the smaller forces. By contrast, such individuals in Skystream City were—at most—ordinary bodyguards who served upper-tier families.There were two bodyguards with a higher attainment base than the rest. One had reached level two warrior king, while the other was level four
The other guy frowned too. "He's dealing with our attacks head-on without using any skills or techniques! Can he even withstand the attack?"However, a huge roar sounded at almost the same time, and both the huge tiger and the flying sword were smashed into pieces by Severin's punch. They crumbled into pieces in midair and turned into powder."That's… that's impossible! How?!" The level two warrior king was so frightened that he retreated two steps back. He shook his head repeatedly, with his face full of disbelief."How did he even achieve that?! He couldn't have been able to withstand that attack if he isn't at least a level six warrior king! He did it so easily too! Could he be a level seven warrior king?" Khaled was also stunned by the scene before him and could only stand there in a daze."Hehe. Time for you to meet your maker!" Severin had no plans to show them any mercy as he dashed toward them and punched both his fists into their chest before they could react.The two war
"What else can we do except carry their bodies and go home right away?" Arnie then gritted his teeth and said, "He and his ten women are staying in this hotel, so it should be easy to find out more about them. I'll head home, inform my father, and bring our strongest men over here. My goal today is to end his life."Moby was just as angry, but he still had the clarity of mind to say to Arnie, "Are you sure you want to tell your father about this? He doesn't like it when you go out hitting on women. You might succeed in bringing your men to kill that kid, but you might not get the chance to play with any of those girls.""That’s right," Dave chimed in. "Knowing your father, he'll take one look at those women and know what's going on. Even if he avenges you and kills that guy, he'll let those women go instead of allowing you to bring them away with you. They're all weak women, after all."Arnie's lips twitched a couple of times, but when he thought of the humiliation that he had suffe
The receptionist looked at Severin in awe. She found him to be quite handsome, and she had no idea which wealthy family was he from to have so many beautiful women around him."Sir, I'm sorry, but we no longer have any ordinary rooms available. Only luxury suites are available right now, but they're on the pricier side." The receptionist said with a smile.Megan's expression soured as she retorted, "What are you trying to imply by that? Do you think that we're unable to afford a luxury suite? How expensive are they, anyway?""One suite costs three thousand dollars a night!""That's super expensive!" Megan was taken aback by the price.The receptionist then explained, "These luxury suites weren't that expensive before, but the price has been driven up because the province governor will be celebrating his sixtieth birthday party. Many who come here from other cities or other provinces are wealthy, so this demand for good rooms in expensive hotels makes the room prices go up.""I se
"Yeah, Dad. They were bullies!" Arnie cried out. "You need to get justice for us!""Do you know the name of the person who slapped you?" Ambrose asked.Arnie's mind went blank, but after a moment, he hesitated before saying, "I don't know what his name is, but I know that he's from a different city. He said that he came to Skystream City for business or something like that.""If he's here to do business, then why would he go around offending other people then? How did you run into him?" Ambrose frowned instantly and spoke in a much calmer tone.He knew what kind of person his son was, and he surmised that his son was the one who started things first. After all, it was common sense that a newcomer would avoid causing any trouble if they came to the city for business matters.Arnie then said, "Well, it all started when I saw them looking for a hotel to stay. I offered to let them stay in some of our empty rooms because I saw how difficult it was for them in a new city, and I just wa
"Didn't you tell them that you're the Pearsons' scion? How did they react when they found out?" Ambrose had a feeling that things were not as simple as Arnie made them out to be, and he could not help but question Arnie again.Arnie said, "I did, of course! He said he'll let me off the hook this time, but he'll kill me if he ever sees me again.""Sir, there must be more to that person than meets the eye if he could threaten your son even after being told that about their family background!" The grand-elder immediately said to Ambrose. "Offending a level seven warrior king makes for a very troublesome situation. We have no idea if he has any good friends or relatives that might have the attainment of a level eight warrior king!"Arnie lashed out angrily all of a sudden, "What are you trying to insinuate, Grand-Elder? Am I supposed to just suck it up after being bullied? A slap to my face is a slap to the Pearsons. Besides, he only said that because he doesn't know about the level eig
Arnie could not help but sigh and say, "Let's not talk about it anymore. Neither my dad nor the bodyguards are going to come here. We'll just have to suck it up this time.""No way!" Moby exclaimed in disbelief. "Doesn't your father dote on you all the time? Why would they just let it slide when you were slapped and two of your family's warrior kings were killed?"Arnie smiled bitterly and said, "Well, my dad said the province governor's sixtieth birthday will be celebrated in another two days, and many powerful people will come to our city. He's worried that we might provoke a big shot like a war chief, a province governor, or the son of those people. He told me to just tough it out, and he even held a meeting to tell all our family's youths not to go out and cause any trouble within the coming week. We were told to keep as low a profile as we possibly could!"Moby understood how serious the matter was and nodded immediately. "Okay then. I guess there's nothing we can do about it t
