Hendrick’s wizened face trembled as a sad expression appeared on it.He had received a call from Mr. Miller, and the latter was equally exasperated as he was.However, there was nothing he could do since Hudson refused to do the favor for him.He could only remind Hendrick to be more careful since there was a probability that Hudson would attack them to put the fear of God into him.Hendrick accepted his reminder but did not expect that Hudson's people would come so quickly.Michael asked sternly, “What does Mr. Hudson intend to do with me?”Damian replied flatly, “Don’t worry. Mr. Hudson isn’t going to kill you. He just asks me to let you taste a bitter pill.”Michael’s heart was in his throat. He was filled with fear as the person in front of him was too powerful.Raymond could exchange a few blows with some grandmasters, yet he stood no chance against this man. All he took was just a finger, and Raymond was severely wounded the next thing he knew.After Damian finished spea
“Gerald?” The figure seemed a little bit surprised.“You’re… Damian!?” Gerald was shocked as well when he realized who the human figure was. “Of all the people, Hudson sent you here? Does he really want to kill his brother and his family that much?” Damian said calmly, “I'm just carrying out Mr. Hudson's orders. I won’t ask any questions.”Gerald’s face sank. He was well aware of how powerful Damian was and was certain that he was no match for him.Damian continued calmly. “Since you're here, can I say that you're going against Mr. Hudson and protecting Hugh's family?”“I've given my words, so I need to carry out my obligation dutifully,” Gerald said sternly.Although he was no match for Damian, it did not mean he couldn’t hold him off.He just needed to stall him long enough until Kayson returned, and then thet could join forces to take Damian down.A hint of coldness crossed Damian’s eyes as he said, “It seems like you have a death wish. I should warn you. The Templars will
Damian had only one arm left. Blood was gurgling out of his wound and staining the ground on his feet with red.At a distance not far away, Gerald’s face was fully written with shock as he said excitedly, “He’s a pre-celestial fighter who can condense his energy… Yet he can’t even take one punch from Dr. Yarde…”It was only now he realized how much he had underestimated Kayson.Damian controlled his energy around his body and stopped the bleeding.He was able to condense the energy in his body, and it wouldn’t take long before he entered the god stage. Even though he hadn’t completely reached the god stage yet, he had half of his foot stepped into it.“There can’t be such a young pre-celestial fighter in this world! Just who are you?” Damian’s face was filled with surprise as he fixed his gaze on Kayson.Kayson said, “Don't use your limited insight to look at the world. You can't do it, but it doesn't mean that others can't do it either.”Damian’s expression changed, and he said
Gerald looked at Kayson. When he saw the calm expression on Kayson’s face, he continued excitedly. “Could it be that…”“You may circulate your energy inside of your body from time to time in these few days. If nothing goes wrong, it shouldn’t be any problem for you to bring your overall battle prowess to another whole new level.”Gerald’s eyes glowed as he said gratefully, “Thank you, Dr. Yarde!”Kayson shook his head. “However, I need you to do me a favor. I want you to continue to protect the Wolfendens for the time being.”“Rest assured, Dr. Yarde!” Gerald patted his chest and said, “As long as I’m alive, no one can lay a single finger on them!”Kayson had a lot of faith in Gerald since he was a man of his words. That was why he promised Gerald that he would help him improve his combat capabilities to the next level.Since Damian was dead, Kayson returned to Whitman Manse.Michael had called someone to come over and clean up a bit, so the courtyard was a lot cleaner.“Kays
Kayson, Michael, and Noella rushed to Skyspring through the night.The drive from Clouspring to Skyspring required four to five hours.When Sadie received Kayson’s call saying that he would not be back for the night, her temper flared. She tossed and turned on the bed, occasionally glancing at the side of the floor Kayson would sleep at, and retrieved her phone since she could not fall asleep.She swiped to her best friend’s contact and sent her a text but did not get her reply.“Since when does Wanda sleep so early!?”Sadie was frustrated. She could only get up and stomp on Kayson’s duvet with nowhere to vent.Meanwhile, Kayson had no idea that a certain heiress pitifully stampeded his beddings.A few hours later, he and his company arrived in Skyspring at midnight. The capital city of Skyriv, Skyspring, triumphed over the other cities in various aspects.Noella had booked a five-star hotel during the drive, and they headed for it directly upon arrival. She had booked a luxuri
Everyone was taken aback. Hudson spoke icily. “Who are you to kick up a fuss here in the Wolfendens’? Don’t you have any idea of the consequences of angering the Wolfendens?”Kayson strode in, looking calm.When the Wolfendens saw that it was a young man, they were baffled. Who was this? They had never seen him before!Hudson questioned in rage, “Who are you?”“You sent people to kill me, but you don’t even know what I look like?” retorted Kayson.The family was alarmed, Hudson even more so. “You’re Kayson Yarde who killed Lincoln?”Lincoln’s father, Konnor, lashed out instantly. “And yet you dare come to the Wolfendens! You’re seeking your own death!”“Masters and seniors, please step out and kill this man right here!”Hudson looked unfazed. He did not stop Konnor because it was impossible for him to let Kayson off the hook either. As for why Kayson would appear here suddenly, he guessed that Damian had simply missed Kayson.Three powerful masters appeared on Kayson’s left, r
Even Kayson was surprised that the old man had surrendered so easily! He thought that they would have fought back till their deaths. Now that they acknowledged defeat so fast, it made him feel bad to kill them all directly.“Brother…” Hubert was indignant since the one who had died was his grandson.“Shut up!” Hudson scolded coldly. His stern expression silenced all the other family members.Hubert and Lincoln’s parents hung their heads without any objection either.“Can you tell me how Damian Carden is now?”“Oh, he’s dead,” answered Kayson.Hubert and Konnor felt cold sweat drenching them. Damian, who was almost in the god stage, was dead?Hudson did not seem too surprised as he nodded. “Hugh’s lucky to have help from a master like you.“This also means that he should be spared. I will stop targeting him because of you.”Kayson scrutinized the Wolfenden patriarch upon hearing what he said and shook his head abruptly. “What you said can’t be trusted.”Hudson arched a brow.
“He’s unconscious now. If I killed them and went against his wishes, it wouldn't be good for me.”Of course, Michael knew that Hugh was still comatose due to his injury. Kayson had even asked him to find certain medicine primers, but there had not been news about it.Suddenly, realization struck Michael. “You’re planning to destroy the Wolfendens’ foundation.“You might as well take this as an opportunity to make the Wolfendens pay a hefty price and use what you gain on Wolfenden Corp.“Besides, the Wolfendens have a lot of connections, having established themselves in Skyspring for so long. Don’t you need a few herbs to wake Mr. Wolfenden Sr. up?“They might have them, but even if they don’t, it’d be easier for you to find them.”Kayson perked up as he listened to Michael and understood him perfectly. He went back to the hall and said, “I need three herbs, Juvena Frux, Tempering Clover, and Evergreene Bark.”Hudson turned serious. “These are precious items…”“Oh, he dies if I
This enraged Abel, so he directly destroyed the Rivspring Chamber of Commerce. The central part of the Rivspring Chamber of Commerce had already turned into ruins. The members who did not get to flee in time were buried underneath the rubble, their state of life unclear.Abel did not care one bit about this.Seth and others were nowhere to be seen, so he had asked Taylor to run a search for them, swiftly coming to the Tinsleys. Then, he found out that Kayson had taken them to Admiralporium for refuge.Abel’s expression was cool and impassive when he came to Admiralporium again.Felicity, Shien, Campian, and the others who had returned appeared in unison to stop them.Taylor scoffed. “Has Admiralporium stooped to become Kayson Yarde’s lackey? How cheap and despicable. I’ll report it honestly when I go back!”Felicity looked frosty as she ignored Taylor and behaved professionally.“If you’re here as guests, Admiralporium welcomes you. But if you’re here for trouble, you’re prohibi
Kayson did not have the courage to perform mind expansion in Admiralporium because it was not an ordinary place. On the other hand, Chase had never taken him to the weapon warehouse either. Otherwise, he would have discovered the septmetal energy here. He had the vulcan fire energy of the fire element, evergreene energy of the wood element, the aquale energy of the water element, and the septmetal energy of the metal element that he was about to harvest. He had already gathered four out of the five energies of five elements. He would have all five elements by the time he gathered the earth energy. Moreover, he would become a smasher who possessed a darksoul and a lightsoul. Warren appeared astounded upon hearing Kayson’s remark. ‘Is there really something impressive in the tattered spear?’He was a warlord, yet how did he not notice it?Even though he held the post of Admiralporium’s chief, he would frequently travel because there were very few disastrous incidents in Skyriv.
’Why would I need a hammer?’ Kayson was at a loss of whether to laugh or cry. “Have you ever heard of Heavenless?”Warren’s pupils constricted, and he exclaimed, “I’ve heard it before, of course! This is an extremely well-known sword technique!“Delmont Hamilton from Northspring fought against the most skilled sword genius, Ezekiel Turner, by using Heavenless in the past!”“Do you think I can break the defense of the Cadogans’ Steel Screen man if I can perform the first form of Heavenless that is a hundred times more powerful than Mr. Hamilton Sr.’s move?”Warren stood up from his seat swiftly and said incredulously, “Y-You’re trained in Heavenless too!? I thought the sword technique had vanished together with Delmont?”Next to him, Master Shannong said, “Could it be that Delmont… is still alive?”Kayson nodded and said, “Mr. Hamilton Sr. is still alive and passed down Heavenless to me.“However, I don’t have a sword that is strong enough because ordinary swords can’t withstand
Kayson was pondering when the sound of rushed footsteps was heard coming from outside the Tinsleys’ home. He raised his head to look and said in astonishment, “Mr. Jackson, Master Shannong, what brings you here?”Seth’s head was drenched in a cold sweat as he said in fear, “The Cadogans are here, Mr. Yarde. They are planning on killing me, my son, and Master Shannong.“We packed up overnight and took most of our credit cards as well as our asset contracts with us. We came looking for you in a haste after learning that you’re at the Tinsleys’ home, Mr. Yarde.”Master Shannong was a skilled fighter, so he remained calm and composed despite being under the immense pressure caused by the Cadogans. Seth and Lex were different. They were panic-stricken and regarded Kayson as their only chance of survival. “Mr. Yarde, will you be able to deal with the Cadogans?” Seth looked at Kayson in a hopeful manner.Kayson shook his head. “I think that there’s a high probability of failure for
Chase’s expression changed ever so slightly. “Shall we inform Kayson then?”“Hmm, reach out to him and inform him that this man has already completed his Steel Screen training and that he is able to make a clean sweep of Skyriv if he wants. If Kayson were to get into a conflict with this man, he would most certainly be on the losing side.”…Kayson arrived at the Tinsleys’ home. Jeremy did not come forward to welcome his arrival, but it was Tyrone. He asked when he met Tyrone, “Grandpa Tyrone, where is Uncle Jeremy?”Tyrone heaved a sigh and said, “Jeremy has been summoned for a discussion. I just found out that there has been pressure from Metrocity’s Cadogans.”Kayson furrowed his eyebrows. ‘It’s the Cadogans from Metrocity again!’“Is Uncle Jeremy in danger?”Tyrone shook his head. “Don’t worry about his safety. It’s only that… the Cadogans will try to figure out a way to send Jeremy to jail.”Kayson was astonished. It would be his fault if Jeremy was framed and sent to
As soon as Taylor’s voice died away, Drake came running to them, his face ghastly pale. “Patrol Yost, Mr. Cadogan, Warren… Chief Kline and the others are back!”Drake’s expression was filled with fear and panic. Randall had told him that Warren was doomed after being encircled by many warlords.Yet, he did not expect that Randall would be beaten to death by Kayson not long after his return. On the other hand, Warren returned safely, while Chase and Ruby were fine as well.If that were the case, he was certain that he would be taken out as well in view of being Randall’s trusted subordinate!Drake remained panic-stricken. So what if the Cadogans were involved? Taylor and the Cadogans could walk away without any responsibility at any moment. How about him? He would still need to continue to hold his post in Admiralporium!Meanwhile, three figures with overbearing auras appeared before Abel and the others.The leading person was precisely Warren.Warren glanced at Drake before
Taylor had very little experience interacting with body practitioners, yet he had heard about Steelification Doyen’s grand reputation. He figured that Steelification Doyen’s reputation must not be so unworthy, right?Noticing Taylor’s disbelief, Abel smiled nonchalantly and said, “Master Steele, Patrol Yost is not a body practitioner, so why don’t you show him the power of Steel Screen?”Tegan, who looked to be a little over 50 years old, stood up. Taylor’s expression changed ever so slightly. He had experience fighting against Kayson, so he believed that he had a right to comment on Kayson’s capability. On the other hand, Tegan was a newly-recruited skilled fighter of the Cadogans, whom he had never heard of before.The Steel Screen’s reputation was widely-known, but he had never encountered skilled fighters trained in the Steel Screen. As such, he had no idea how powerful they could be.“Alright, I shall give it a try then!”Taylor did not reject the offer. Both of them arri
Kayson said with a calm expression, “I know. Don’t worry about that. These people are coming for me.”Beckham’s expression was solemn, and he appeared even more worried. “Mr. Yarde, do you know which influential figure or family from Metrocity it is specifically?”“Ah, I know. It’s the Cadogans from Metrocity.”Beckham and Christine’s expressions changed drastically in unison at once. “The Cadogans… from Metrocity?”Both of them were rendered speechless from fear.Christine’s face turned ghastly pale when she said, “H-How did you offend the Cadogans from Metrocity? You’ve truly broken the limits of mankind!”Beckham also said in a fearful tone, “The Cadogans from Metrocity… Mr. Yarde, we’re in deep trouble! Even though the Cadogans are based in Metrocity, they’re immensely powerful.“They can still affect our business in Skyspring despite being miles away!”Kayson smiled and said casually, “You will only need to manage the company’s operations. I will deal with the Cadogans f
Casey’s expression changed dramatically upon noticing the situation. He pointed at her and said in a stern voice, “You ungrateful wench! Since all of you wish to die so badly, I shall fulfill your wish!”Meanwhile, the boardroom’s door was blasted open by force, and Kayson walked into the room with long strides. He looked toward Casey and said nonchalantly, “Who did you say you’re going to kill?”Christine turned around abruptly and felt instantly relieved when she saw Kaysson was there. After all, the company belonged to Kayson, and she did not wish anything bad to happen to it.Hence, she showed her humility when she was dealing with these people. A slightly resentful gaze emerged on Christine’s face with light makeup on. “Boss, I was truly afraid that I wouldn’t be able to withstand the pressure if you still didn’t show up.”Kayson was rendered speechless. He said, “You’re a skilled fighter, yet you are scared of him?”Christine said in frustration, “I didn’t dare to fight
