As Torsten hurled insults at Celena, Liam's face turned to stone, and a wave of lethal fury washed over him. He locked his eyes onto Torsten with deadly intent. Unfazed by Torsten's taunting stare, Liam strode toward him and said with icy resolve, "I've warned before anyone who dares harm my family will face the consequences. Do you want a death wish? I'm happy to oblige!" Torsten's face twisted with rage, his eyes blazing with a thirst for violence as he bellowed back, "Bring it on! You want a death wish, kid? You got it!" With a roar, Torsten swung his fist in a feint and then launched a swift kick aimed at Liam's head—a move that had spelled the end for many before. Torsten was sure of his technique and convinced that once his foot connected, Liam would be done for it. A vicious smirk played on his lips, already savoring the victory. However, in the next breath, his smirk vanished. Celena, gripped by fear for her husband, cried out, "Watch out, honey!" Yet Liam remained
Liam did not bother with a response. With a swift punch to the chest, he sent Torsten flying across the room, the man's body slamming into the bookshelf of the presidential suite, shattering it into splinters.Torsten hit the floor hard, blood spurting from his mouth, his eyes wide with shock as he gazed up at Liam.Liam's laugh was chilling. "The Nasso Group? The martial arts school? They mean nothing to me. If they dare touch my family, they'll cease to exist."Torsten's eyes bulged, disbelief etched on his face as he screeched, "You wouldn't dare! They're the Nasso Group, the martial arts school! If you lay a finger on me, the Nasso family's second-in-command won't let you off the hook!"Liam's face was an icy mask, his presence radiating a chilling intent to kill as he strode toward Torsten without a word. With a scornful chuckle, he raised his foot and slammed it down hard onto Torsten's chest.The force of the blow shattered several of Torsten's ribs, the sound of snapping b
"And you had the audacity to lay hands on her, you're done for!!"Liam's face turned to stone, and he stomped down on Torsten's chest with a force that ended it all.A sickening crack filled the air, followed by Torsten's gurgling blood.Torsten's eyes were wide with shock, his mouth a gory mess, his pleas choked off as his chest collapsed inward, and he died instantly.The sight of Torsten's gruesome end would have sent those wealthy businessmen who once courted him into a state of shock.That was the mightiest War King instructor at Nasso's Martial Arts School, and he was crushed without a chance to strike back by Liam's hand.The terror of it was overwhelming.Liam's face remained unreadable as he learned of Torsten's demise. Without a word, he quickly walked over to where Celena was tied up."It's okay now, Celena. You're safe," he said softly.With gentle hands, Liam untied the ropes that bound her. He winced when he saw the marks they had left on her delicate wrists, his
A master with the strength of a War King and his ten disciples all murdered at the hotel? Unbelievable!What in the world was happening?Torsten was supposed to show up with ten of his martial arts academy students to give Liam a hard time and stir up trouble for the Stones, wasn't he?The rumor mill had been churning, and everyone was eager to watch the Stone family's spectacle. However, then, shockingly, Torsten was dead!?The Stones got wind of that too.Reginald wasted no time. As soon as he heard the news, he rounded up the family, calling an emergency meeting in the villa's grand parlor.The mood in the room was heavier than when they found out they were in the crosshairs of the Nasso Group.Every Stone family member there, including Reginald, wore grave expressions. The room was silent.Reginald, his face dark with worry and leaning heavily on his cane, took a few long minutes before he rapped his cane on the floor and spoke with a steely edge, "You've all heard the news
A sudden realization hit Yafe, and his face turned ashen, a cold sweat breaking out on his forehead. If Liam had indeed killed Torsten and the others, it would spell disaster for the Stone family! Reginald's expression darkened considerably as he listened to Yafe, his brows knitting together in deep concern.Hayden's brow was knitted in concentration before he finally spoke up. "Dad, are we maybe making too much of this? Mr. Williams is a top-tier fighter, a real War King. Liam's got some moves, sure, but next to Mr. Williams, he's out of his league..."Walter nodded in agreement. "You're right. Liam's just a tough guy. There is no way he can stand up to Mr. Williams, and let's not forget the ten disciples from the Nasso Martial Arts School. They might not be on Mr. Williams' level, but I've heard they're the cream of the crop."Liam couldn't have taken them all out by himself, could he??"The room fell into a heavy silence at the thought.That's Torsten, after all.A fighter o
Sherah, who was standing next to Yafe, was also frightened by Liam's gaze. However, she became confident again once she remembered that Reginald and all the other Stone family members were also present.Glaring at Liam furiously, Sherah put her hands on her waist and bellowed like a shrew, "How dare you, Liam! Do you know where this is? Are you going to throw hands at my husband when Reginald is here? How bold of you! We're your elders!"In an instant, all the Stone family members were glaring at Liam, whispering to each other."How cocky of Liam! How dare he have such an attitude in the presence of Reginald.""I agree! Celena is something else as well. Reginald already had someone notify her after such a big thing happened, yet she still didn't come. How bold of her!""Hmph! She has a husband who's great at fighting. Of course, she's not going to take us seriously.""That's right! I think Celena is doing it on purpose. She probably wants us to head to the cottage and invite her
"Y-you've killed Torsten and the others. That's equivalent to openly provoking the Nasso Group and the Nasso Martial Arts School. If Rain were to come to Drunham City personally after the news reached the state capital, our family would be finished."Reginald looked more and more upset as he spoke. The look of terror gradually appeared in his eyes.His words hit the Stone family members like a bombshell again, leaving horrified looks on their faces."We're finished! We're truly done for this time!""What should we do now? The news will surely reach the state capital soon. Our family would be truly done if Mr. Rain Nasso were to learn about this! ""That's right! He's not a person we'll want to mess with. Not only is he the owner of the Nasso Martial Arts School, he's also the head of the Nasso family's brother!""Hurry up and make a decision, Reginald! What should we do now?""How about we banish Liam and Celena from the family right away? They are the ones who created this mess
"I agree! What a joke! Who do you think you are, Liam? Do you know who they are? They are the Nasso Martial Arts School, the top school in the state!""You're killing me. Mr. Rain Nasso is an expert with the skill level of a military king. Nobody from this state would have the guts to offend Nasso Martial Arts School.""On top of that, Mr. Rain Nasso is the brother of the Nasso family head. The Nasso Group is a top company in this state. They have a powerful family and company. You're nothing more than a loser who married into our family, yet you have the guts to boast so shamelessly."After the Stone family members regained their senses, they barked at Liam furiously.One of them even came forward and ridiculed Liam while pointing at him, "Liam, have you gone mad? Do you know what you're talking about? Do you how powerful Mr. Rain Nasso is? He's an expert with the skill level of a military king. He's the top in the martial arts field in this state!"Liam did not even bat an eye.
