Carlson replied politely, “Kayson Yarde’s actually here in the company with Bryson Yost for trouble. Mr. Jourdain’s being held back by Bryson now.“Can you send someone here to tackle Kayson for us? He’s a tough one to handle!”The other end of the line was quiet for some time. Carlson thought that the call was cut, and he glanced at the phone screen—the call was still connected! He asked curiously, “Patrol Yost?”It was only then Taylor’s voice came from the other side. His tone brimmed with repressed rage. “Stop provoking him for now. Give him what he wants. Tackling him requires a long-term plan.”Carlson froze before he asked frantically, “Patrol Yost, w-what do you mean?”Taylor’s answer came bursting with anger. “Randall Zabka is dead! Kayson Yarde killed him! He’s only a grandmaster, but he’s crazy skilled and can kill a warlord!“He also has Swenson and Bryson by his side while Waylon’s keeping a close eye on me. I can’t do anything, or I’ll be called back to Metrocity to
’This is impossible!’ It was what Leon thought immediately. He believed that he must have misheard. ‘Randall Zabka died? Kayson killed him?’In that instant, he felt chilled to the bones as he panicked.Bryson caught up to him with the plan of dealing a heavy blow. As Leon snapped back to reality in horror, he blocked the attack frantically, but a split second was all it took for victory between experts.His distraction had caused Bryson’s fists to land on him like a storm.Leon took a few punches directly. Although his powerful energy protected him, he was not a physically-trained fighter, so his physical defense was limited. A little over ten seconds later, blood was oozing out of his mouth like he was throwing up his internal organs.Kayson kept watching Leon without doing anything. If Bryson could not defeat the latter when they fought one-on-one, the man might as well die so he could reincarnate.As Kayson kept watching for some time, he frowned. Leon had high endurance but
’Does this mean that… Dr. Yarde has incapacitated Leon?! He was a smasher, though!’The others in the meeting room watched reverently as Kayson made his way to Farris and tapped him. The latter, who had taken a blow from a smasher, then woke up.“D-Dr. Yarde?”Farris looked at Kayson in disbelief.Kayson smiled. “Mr. Townsend, we meet again.”Farris asked in shock, “What brought you here, Dr. Yarde? Did you save me?”Kayson nodded.Farris was still in some pain but could already stand up. He scanned the rest of the people in the room and realized that the shareholders were looking at him with complicated gazes.Harry’s brows were knitted together solemnly, while Carlson was pale with terrorized eyes.What happened? Where was that smasher named Leon Jourdain?Kayson explained nothing but glanced at Carlson, causing the latter’s eyes to roll back before he passed out on the floor. This rendered Kayson speechless. ‘This man is so cowardly, yet he dares cause so much trouble?’K
Kayson left with Farris after the transfer contract was signed. The shareholders ducked their heads in the pin-drop silent meeting room. No one dared check on Harry. Although he was only a puppet, there must be something to him for a warlord to utilize him.Harry’s face was dark like the storm. His gaze was as if it could kill. He looked at Carlson, who was unconscious on the floor, and growled, “Men!”Two of his underlings came in and stood by the door.“Carry Carlson back to his office and ask him to scram once he wakes up!“Tell the security and reception downstairs that the Carlings are not allowed to step into the company building without my permission!”His subordinates obliged and carried Carlson away hastily.It was only then Harry looked at the sly shareholders and snarled icily, “I don’t care if you’re on Carlson or Farris’ side!“Stay in your lane from now on. Anyone who dares cause trouble before he is back, hand over your shares and piss off!”The shareholders nodd
Urias snarled back, “Dickson Carling, this isn’t the end yet! Don’t celebrate too early!”Dickson narrowed his eyes. “Master Boyle, you’re a master, a decent one at that. I can let you go if you’re willing to come under me now.“Otherwise, when my father takes over and has control over Omnicare Drugstore, you won’t end up any better.”Urias was resolute. “I will not associate myself with you despicable father and son’s dirty deeds even if I have to die!”Dickson’s gaze turned icy. “Alright. Since you want to seek death, I’ll fulfill your wish! You’ll know who Omnicare Drugstore belongs to in a while!”Cayden was grimacing. He knew well that it would be tough for Farris to end up with good news today. He turned to look at the door with a longing gaze and a wry smile, thinking, ‘Mr. Johnston, I might not be able to carry your vision onward… I’m useless to have failed to defend Omnicare Drugstore.’The more Cayden thought about it, the more bitter his mood grew.It was then they he
“Impossible?”It was rare for Farris to get to vent his frustration, so he slammed the contract in his hand on the table.“Have a good look and tell me if it’s possible!”Dickson hurried forward to pick up and go through the agreement, crying in horror after that, “No! No way! Mr. Pether wouldn’t possibly make a decision like this!”Dickson’s eyes were red. He had recently returned to the country and had yet to accomplish anything big. Omnicare Drugstore was supposed to be a good stepping stone for him! With some attention, Omnicare Drugstore, which was already stable, could add merit to his record and boost him into the core level of the Soulspring Group within a short time.In spite of it, this fantasy was ruined!“It’s fake! This contract is fake! You forged it!” Dickson cried and actually planned to tear the document, frightening Farris.Kayson let out a snort, generating a soft soundwave that shook Dickson. Urias went up to snatch the contract from the latter.By the time
Flynn, whom his grandfather, Urias, could not handle on usual days, was completely obedient to Kayson at this very moment. “Even though we have a firm hold on Omnicare Drugstore now, we must still exercise caution now that things have gotten ugly with the Soulspring Group!”Farris looked toward Cayden. “You must be careful and ensure that the suppliers are good.”Cayden chuckled and said, “Don’t worry, Mr. Townsend, I’ve prepared for this in advance by signing three-year uninterrupted supply contracts with the majority of the suppliers.“If they have the audacity to break contact, they’re going to have to make a hefty monetary compensation to us!”Farris said in astonishment, “When did you do that?”Cayden said, “I began my preparations when I witnessed Dickson and Carlson’s sh*tty behavior at your place previously.”Farris smiled in relief. “Not bad, you have a keen sense. If Mr. Johnston is still alive… he will most certainly be happy and gratified.”Cayden did not behave to
Perhaps it was due to Kayson’s reluctance to take Christine back to his villa that Christine assumed a cold expression on the way to the hotel and ignored Kayson. Seated in the passenger seat, Eira darted a side glance at Kayson but did not comment further.Kayson was no fool. He could see the change in Christine’s mood too. He felt troubled by that but figured he would not be staying in Skyriv for a long time. He needed Christine’s help to manage the company matters and protect Sadie’s family in the future. As a result, he could only heave a sigh in his heart and force himself to speak.“Someone else has lent me the place that I’m living in now. The owner is not around, so it would be inappropriate for me to let you live in the place.“Here, I shall find a good location in two days and buy a villa so you can stay there by then.“Both of you can stay in the hotel for two days. What do you think about the plan?”Christine’s eyes glistened as she said nonchalantly, “This is how
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
