Bob was astonished. However, he soon calmed himself down when he saw that Kayson just went upstairs indifferently.Yuna was stunned. “Brother, how big of a room does it take to house $2,200,000,000?”Bob took a deep breath and replied, “How would I know about that? I have never seen so much money before.”Yuna sighed and said dejectedly, “Brother, Mr. Yarde is really capable…”Bob nodded. “I’m sure what he is showing us right now is just the tip of the iceberg. Besides, I’m sure he’s the one who can change our destiny.“It seems like it isn’t a wrong decision for me to leave Eden Joy. Maybe it’s a blessing in disguise.”Kayson walked upstairs, where Vivian was taking care of her grandfather.“How do you feel now, Grandpa Gould?” asked Kayson.Zidane seemed a lot better as he replied, “I feel a lot better now. Thank you very much, Mr. Yarde.”Kayson smiled. “This is my fault as well. You don’t have to thank me.”Zidane just nodded and asked curiously, “You just came back from
At Omnicare Drugstore…Kayson had come here when he first arrived at Skyspring.This drugstore was equipped with a full range of basic herbs. Even though he found several special herbs of medium and high quality, he did not see anything better than those.As soon as he entered the store, he was welcomed with a thick scent of herbs.The cashier was a pretty girl. She seemed like she had just graduated from university and was cheerful.“Hello, sir. Is there anything you need here? You can tell me, and I’ll help you to look for it.”Kayson said, “I’m looking for Urias.”While the cashier was dumbfounded, Urias came downstairs.“Here you are, Dr. Yarde. I’ve been waiting for you,” Urias greeted Kayson jubilantly. He was happier than anyone when he saw Kayson. Kayson nodded and followed Urias upstairs, leaving the cashier standing frozen stiff. This was the first time she saw Urias treat someone so respectfully.In the meeting room upstairs…“What would you like to drink, Mr. Ya
Urias chimed in. “Mr. Yarde and I are going to Master Jourdain’s place. Since you’re here, can you drive us there?”Cayden replied with a smile, “Of course! This will be my honor!”Afterward, they departed from Omnicare Drugstore with Cayden as the driver.Soon, they arrived at a secluded suburban area. They stopped in front of a villa, and Kayson could feel the presence of a smasher inside the house.Urias walked to the front. He knew the password, so he opened the door, and they went inside. “Master Jourdain! I’ve brought you a good doctor that can help you!”As soon as Urias finished speaking, a figure landed in front of them. He looked like a man in his 40s and was wearing a training uniform.Urias was stunned. “Master Jourdain, your injuries…”The middle-aged man was Leon Jourdain. He had reached the first stage of energy enhancement, and he was a smasher.With a smile on his face, he nodded. “My disciple gave me a potion last night, and my injuries healed after taking i
The three of them returned to Omnicare Drugstore.“I’m so sorry about that, Mr. Yarde. I didn’t mean to put you through that.”Urias had been apologizing to Kayson ever since they came back from Leon’s house.Exasperated, Cayden said, “How can he be so mean? Has he forgotten that we’re the ones who provided him with tons of herbs in the past two years?”Urias shook his head. “There’s nothing we can do about it. He’s a smasher. Perhaps we’re nothing more than ants in his eyes, and he might think we should feel honored that we can serve him.”Kayson walked into the store, and the cashier looked at him curiously. He offered her a smile and followed the other two upstairs to the meeting room.“There’s no need to be so angry. I’m sure he’ll come begging you later. At that time, we’ll be able to get our revenge.”Cayden asked, “Mr. Yarde, are you sure? You’re not lying to us, are you?”Kayson replied, “Why should I lie to you? It’s true that he’s recovered, but it’s just temporary. T
Urias looked hesitant. “True, but he’s a smasher after all…”Cayden asked, “So what if he’s a smasher? He’s the one with a favor to ask from Mr. Yarde right now, not the other way round!“Even if we don’t mind, can we turn a blind eye as well when he mocks Mr. Yarde?”Urias thought about it and found what Cayden said to be right, so he looked at Kayson. “Dr. Yarde, what do you think we should do?”“You guys decide. The only reason I’m here today is that I’ve promised you,” replied Kayson.That was all it took for Urias to understand what Kayson meant. The latter was showing him support. He wanted him to be able to stand tall and proud in front of Leon!Urias was filled with gratitude and told the female staff member, “Let him come up on his own.”The female staff member sounded anxious. “But he came crawling, like both his legs were broken…”Urias and Cayden were shocked. What Kayson had said came true, and it seemed serious!“It’s fine. Just tell him as it is.”Urias waved a
A little over an hour later, Kayson came back with a green medicinal ball that seemed to be made out of various herbs being mashed together.“I’m going to treat you with acupuncture. Remove your top.”Leon dared not not listen to him, ripping off his top with Urias’ help, and Kayson pushed a needle in. Kayson’s lightning energy rushed in, charging for Leon’s lower abdomen.Leon looked horrified, but he had no strength to stop what was happening and coughed out a large mouthful of blood. At the same time, a ball of flesh about the size of a fingernail rolled off and around the floor with the blood.With what Leon had spat, he looked much better almost instantly and felt like he was himself as well. He asked in fright, “What’s this!?”Kayson did not answer but passed him the medicinal ball. “Take this herbal pill, and your tendons will be fine.”Leon glanced at the pill in Kayson’s hand, finding it haphazardly made no matter how he looked at it. It was as if Kaysom had pulverized t
Kayson nodded. When Urias took him to see Leon, he had already understood what had happened.Leon was appalled as he asked, “What does the smasher Core do?”Kayson explained, “The practice of a smasher who consumes it will be enhanced substantially, but the effect isn’t the best.“If a pre-celestial fighter takes it, they can achieve a breakthrough to the smasher level.”Leon’s eyes bulged, seemingly taken aback, as he growled, “That scum! I’ve been good to him, and this is what he does to me!”The thought of it made him more grateful toward Kayson and Urias. At the same time, he felt ashamed for how he had treated them.Kayson reminded him, “If your disciple wants to become a smasher by sacrificing you, the injuries you sustained a few years ago might not be an accident.“Of course, this is your private affair, and I’m just bringing it up in passing. Consider it on your own.”Leon’s gaze was reverent. “I’ll remember your reminder and be more careful, Dr. Yarde.”At that momen
Cayden was overjoyed. “Really? Thank you so much, Mr. Yarde!”He was overwhelmed with emotions. He had already lost hope because he had asked all the doctors he could, and there was really nobody else. If he wanted someone better, it would be doctors in Metrocity, and there was nothing he had to be able to commission them.He did not even have the money to pay them. If regular doctors could work, Soulspring Pharmaceutical would not need subordinates like them doing the job.Cayden’s father was a doctor and had been in the pharmaceutical industry. He had taught Cayden since the latter was a young boy that he ought to have his own judgment scale no matter what he did in the future. One end of the scale was to be his conscience, and another end was profit. If the profit end tipped lower than the conscience end, the business was not a deal.That was why Cayden made average money since he entered the workforce. He did not make it big in wealth, but he made enough.Kayson now understood
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
