“Thank you so much, Queenie!” Yulene was beyond excited. At that moment, Cullen’s voice rang out. He sounded cold as he asked, “Are you the one who bullied Yulene?” Yulene’s expression changed, and she said, “What are you talking about, Cullen?”Kayson glanced at Cullen and said indifferently, “I bullied her?”He turned his head around to meet Yulene’s eyes, feeling speechless. He had not scolded her or beaten her up, so he did not know why Cullen would suddenly accuse him of bullying her. Frowning, Cullen said sternly, “Are you scared of him, Yulene? You don’t have to be scared of him. I’ll be here to protect you.”Yulene shouted exasperatedly, “Are you mad, Cullen? Kayson is my friend. He would not bully me.”‘Friend?’Cullen calmed himself down. He could see that Yulene had some feelings for the man before him, and he would never let that happen.However, he smiled and said, “Ah, I see. I’m sorry for misunderstanding.”He put on a facade, acting generous as he said in a
Kayson took Yulene home first. Roughly an hour later, they arrived at the entrance of the Walton manor.Yulene asked, “Mr. Yarde, do you want to come in and have a seat? My father and grandfather have been wanting to see you.”Kayson shook his head. “I’ll pass this time, but I hope you’ll take the things I said to you just now seriously, Ms. Walton.”Yulene felt disappointed. However, she was not going to give up, as she still had a lot of time. Besides, she knew she couldn’t rush this kind of thing.“Alright. I’ll keep it in mind.”After saying that, Yulene got out of the car and entered Walton manor.Queenie said, “Kayson, Yulene isn’t a bad girl. She's very kind. When someone was bullying me in college, she stood up for me.”Kayson replied, “I didn’t say she’s a bad girl.”Queenie sighed inwardly, left speechless after she heard what Kayson said. Suddenly, his hair stood up and gooseflesh erupted all over his skin. He squinted his eyes as he said, “Hurry up and pull over!”
Yulene was stunned. Her face flushed with embarrassment as she gently pulled a lock of hair from her head. Kayson was speechless. “I just needed a strand. Why did you give me a lock?” Yulene did not know what to say.‘I just lost my focus for a while…’Kayson did not say anything else. He just pulled out a charm and coiled Yulene’s hair around it.The charm fluttered and led the three of them forward.In the suite of the hotel… “What?!” Joe’s expression changed, and he shouted. Cullen asked, “What’s wrong, Mr. Roosevelt?”“Someone has intercepted my Soul-Guiding Curse!” Joe’s face sank as he said, “I don’t know what happened, but the Killing Curse seems to have failed to kill that man named Kayson…”Cullen asked sternly, “How could that happen?”After all, even a master-level fighter would not be able to defend themselves against Joe’s attack.Joe frowned deeply and said, “I have no idea either. It seems like someone interrupted the curse. But how could he do that if he
“Mr. Roosevelt?”Cullen’s face was pale with shock and fear as he looked at Joe’s dead body on the floor.Kayson took a step forward and pulled the red clothes off the puppet. He then gathered his fire energy and burned the puppet. Cullen’s face was gloomy as he said, “It seems to me that you have a death wish since you dared to kill Mr. Roosevelt.”Kayson said calmly, “You’re more foolish than I thought you were. Do you think it's good for you to build a career with the help of evil power? I guess you have been using this curse technique a lot because it’s convenient, right? Do you think this guy is helping you for nothing? Although you've had a good run in the past few years, I'm sure many of the people around you have gone through hard times, right?”Cullen looked stunned and startled. “How… How did you know that?” Kayson said, “Using the power of a curse to gain what you want will take a heavy toll on you, but you may not need to suffer the consequences. “It may affect th
She felt like she was such a fool. When Kayson had told her that Cullen was a bad guy, she had refused to believe it and had thought that Kayson was being petty.“How dare you slap me, you b*tch! Unforgivable! This is unforgivable! How could you slap me?!” Cullen burst into a fit of anger. Gone was the cool-headed, poised handsome young man he normally was.Yulene was disappointed. She had not expected that to be the true nature of the mild-tempered, outstanding student council president.Kayson took a step forward and smacked Cullen on the back of his neck, knocking him out cold. Since Admiralporium would be coming to clean up the mess, Kayson led Yulene and Queenie away. When they returned to the Walton manor, Yulene said in a serious voice, “Thank you very much for tonight, Mr. Yarde. If it weren't for you, I would have…” Yulene felt a chill down her spine when she thought about what would have happened to her if Kayson had not stepped in.Kayson nodded, and Yulene added,
At the table, Bradley asked, “How do you like the dishes, Mr. Yarde?”Kayson smiled and said, “They’re good. I didn’t expect you to have such a scrumptious meal for breakfast.” Bradley laughed and said, “If you like it, you’re welcome to come and have breakfast with us every day!” Kayson smiled but did not say anything. At that moment, Hogan chimed in. “Mr. Yarde, Yulene talked about her illness with me last night. “Are you suspecting that friend of mine is doing this to Yulene?” Kayson nodded. “If you guys haven’t been to any other places, then it should be him.” Hogan found it hard to believe. He said, “That man has been my friend for many years. It’s not too far-fetched to say that he’s one of my best friends. He has been treating Yulene very nicely as well.“He even intends to take Yulene in as his goddaughter, but I didn’t say yes… He has been taking great care of Yulene since she was a kid.“He’ll come here later. Can you help me test him out? What if we make a mista
Bradley and the fighters of the Waltons appeared and surrounded Justin’s car.Justin’s face sank as he looked at Hogan angrily. “What do you mean by this, Hogan?”Hogan did not say anything. He just looked at Kayson. “Mr. Yarde?”Kayson walked to the passenger seat, pulled the air vent underneath the front of the passenger seat, and a purplish crystalline rock dropped out. He enveloped himself in his energy barrier and picked the rock up with his bare hand.“Arctic Crystal? This is incredible. Not everyone can get this.” Kayson sighed. “I suppose you were instructed by someone to do this, right?” Hogan’s face was grim as he gritted his teeth. “Justin, how do you explain this?”Justin said seriously, “I don’t know how this thing got in my car!”Kayson smiled and chimed in. “You still don’t want to tell the truth? Never mind. I have plenty of ways to hypnotize you and force you to spill the truth.”At that moment, the driver Kayson had discovered to be a peak-stage, master-le
Kayson chuckled. “Did he really say that?”If he still had the guts to say something like that after seeing his strength, it meant the person supporting him was someone to be reckoned with. That being said, Kayson was not really worried about it, even if he was a pre-celestial fighter.However, it seemed to him that the person who had poisoned Yulene was even more powerful and troublesome than expected.Bradley said in a serious voice, “That’s what he said. Mr. Yarde, what do you think?”The words of a peak-stage, master-level fighter carried weight, and Kayson decided to meet him since he had mentioned him.As soon as he made up his mind, Kayson said, “Let’s go and meet him.”Very soon, Bradley and Kayson entered the interrogation room. Kayson looked at Justin’s driver and asked, “What’s your name?”The driver’s face was swollen up from the beating, and he stared at Kayson viciously as he replied, “Logan Zabinski.”Kayson nodded and said, “I heard from Mr. Walton Sr. that yo
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
