Chapter 1645

Author: Voice From Heaven
With that, Quenten, Cambria, and an assistant made their exit from the conference room.

Icarus, with a respectful nod, joined the rest of the room in a silent, reverent farewell as they watched their leader depart.

After Quenten had exited, the conference room buzzed with the allies of Virginio, their voices rising in heated debate.

"Mr. Gabrick, what's Mr. Zeller getting at? Are we really going to let our state's martial arts association be pushed around by some guy who just married into a family?"

"Exactly! Liam's made a fool out of us, turned us into a joke among the neighboring martial arts communities, and we're supposed to make nice with him?!"

"We're the martial arts authority in this state. Are we expected to bow to some nobody son-in-law from Drunham City?"

"Right! It seems Mr. Zeller's lost his edge, too old to stand up to even a lowly son-in-law."

"Mr. Zwick, sure, our association needs new blood, but not from that son-in-law Liam!"

"Absolutely! He took down Mr. Nass

    Icarus watched Virginio storm off, a mix of ice and scorn in his eyes. He had never had much respect for the guy.Virginio was all pride and swagger, thinking a little talent gave him the right to walk on air.However, what Virginio did not realize was that there were always bigger fish, plenty of them. He had just been a big shot in the tiny pond of state and had not yet met his match.Once Virginio and his entourage had cleared out, the other association members trickled out of the room, leaving Icarus with just two middle-aged men.One, a wiry guy with a questioning look, peered up at Icarus. "Is this Liam really all that? You think he's going to dazzle everyone at the annual Martial Arts Convention for Drunham City?"The other man, all stern and no-nonsense, chimed in, "Mr. Zwick, none of us have seen Liam in action. Can he live up to the hype?"Icarus chuckled, then his face took on a grave cast as he looked at the two men. "You've seen it for yourselves. The Martial Arts As

    A shiver ran through the room as the middle-aged man spoke of the Yeager family, one of the Four Ancient Families. His eyes were a storm of emotions. Virginio's boldness, his brazen challenge to Icarus, was all because he had the Yeager family, with their deep roots and vast influence, standing behind him.Icarus was not the least bit startled or scared, and with a grin, he said, "Mr. Wadder, I'm well aware, and that's exactly why I'm going to..."Radwen Wadder gave a small nod, understanding, and offered, "Whatever happens, Icarus, if you're ever in a bind, just holler. I'll be there for you, come hell or high water."At the same time, outside the martial arts association's towering building.Quenten, his crew in tow and his granddaughter Cambria by his side, descended to the lobby and slid into his limousine. The engine had not even purred to life when Cambria's curiosity bubbled over.With a skeptical look, she quizzed, "Grandpa, is this Liam guy, the one married into the Sto

    In the quaint courtyard of the Stone family...Liam and Celena had just stepped back into their cozy courtyard when Celena fixed Liam with an odd, piercing gaze.Liam felt a twinge of alarm but kept his cool, feigning ignorance. "Honey, what's with the intense stare?"As he spoke, Liam moved to plop down on the couch beside her, but Celena's sharp command froze him in his tracks. "Hold it right there!"Perched on the sofa like royalty, Celena surveyed him with a queenly air, arms folded and chin lifted.Liam tensed, then flashed a sheepish smile. "What's up, hon? Why the sudden inquisition?"He did not get to finish. Celena's eye roll cut him off as she demanded, "Liam, spill it. Are you keeping something from me?"Liam felt a jolt of nerves but quickly masked it with a goofy grin and a scratch of his head. "You're imagining things, love. I've got nothing to hide. Remember my seven years in the service? Training in martial arts with my mentor, teaching the troops—it made handlin

    "Celena, I'm aware of the pain you endured seven years ago because of me and Jovie too. Our time together may have been brief, but it's been profound."You and Jovie mean the world to me. Celena, I can't thank you enough. After the tragedy with the Cole family seven years ago, I was left without a home. You gave me a new beginning."Celena, please know this—I, Liam, promise to guard you and Jovie with my life. As long as I draw breath, I'll shield you both from any harm."Liam's declaration was filled with unwavering conviction, his demeanor grave. Celena could see the truth in his eyes.Moved to tears, Celena's eyes glowed with gratitude as she nodded emphatically. "Yes, Liam... I trust you, and I'm deeply thankful for all you've done. You've been my rock in the toughest of times, and you've always treated me with such kindness.""Silly girl, you're my wife. Who else would I be good to, if not you?"Liam's smile was a gentle balm as he brushed away the tears from Celena's eyes.

    Reginald, surrounded by the buzz of everyone's opinions, wore a look of deep concern. With a gentle tap of his cane on the floor, he commanded silence. Once the room fell quiet, Reginald turned to Yafe and inquired, "Yafe, what's your take on this?" At the mention of Liam, Yafe's expression darkened with a glint of malice in his eyes. "Dad, to be frank, Liam just doesn't fit with the Stone family anymore. It's bad enough he's been a constant source of trouble, but the guy has zero respect for authority. He's been insolent to his elders, even gone so far as to get physical with them. If we let him stay, we'll become the town's biggest joke!"If anyone was itching to kick Liam and Celena out of the Stone family, Yafe would be leading the charge with arms enthusiastically raised. Liam had crossed him one too many times, challenging him and even getting physical. Yafe was seething, fantasizing about giving Liam a taste of his own medicine.Sherah quickly joined in, playing to the fam

    "Enough!" Reginald barked.He was already feeling unwell, to begin with. After what happened during the day, his condition became worse. Hearing the noise from the crowd made him feel incredibly irritated.The people in the room instantly fell silent as soon as Reginald bellowed. Reginald slammed his cup on the table and looked at the crowd with a stern expression. His voice was frosty as he said, "I'm not dead yet. Do my words mean nothing to you anymore?"All you guys want is to kick Liam out. Have you forgotten how he taught Mr. Rain Nasso a lesson today? Do you know who Mr. Rain Nasso is? He's a top-tier fighter of military king caliber, yet he didn't manage to get the better of Liam."Do you guys think you can defeat Liam?"His words made everyone fall silent. All the people who were worked up and said they wanted to rush to the cottage to kick Liam and Celena out were stunned.Reginald was right.Rain was a top fighter with the skill level of a military king, yet he was

    Everybody speculated if Drunham City was going to have a change in regime since someone who outranked Malcolm was going to be the new commander-in-chief of the garrison in the city.As soon as the news got out, all the heads of the wealthy families in the city could not sit still anymore. They rushed to the garrison to visit Malcolm. Because too many went to visit Malcolm, he had no choice but to spread the news that he was not going to see anybody lately. He also mobilized a troop of soldiers to guard the gates of the garrison.All the rich and famous who kept wanting to visit Malcolm were stopped by the soldiers outside the gates of the garrison.The Stone family sent someone to the garrison after they learned the news. However, just like everyone else who was there, they were stopped outside the gates as well.The crowd did not meet Malcolm, but that did confirm a piece of news—Malcolm would be leaving Drunham City and taking up a position in Athenapolis soon.The garrison wo

    It was after Malcolm heard Liam's reply that he was thoroughly relieved. He then stood up and saluted Liam respectfully.Liam waved at Malcolm, put down his cup, and patted Malcolm's shoulder before he said, "Alright. Do your best after you arrive at Athenapolis. If you have any questions, you can contact the Pendragon office there.""Thank you, sir!" Malcolm shuddered and quickly looked up to salute Liam in excitement once again.Malcolm was sure that Liam was a very big part of the reason he was able to be transferred to Athenapolis.Liam smiled and shook his head after he saw Malcolm looking teary-eyed. Then, he glanced at the time and was ready to leave.Seeing that, Malcolm quickly said, "Please stay, sir. There's going to be a party here at the garrison tonight. It's a farewell for me since I'm going to work in Athenapolis, and it's also to welcome the new commander-in-chief."Liam frowned and gave it a thought before he said, "Do as you see fit, but remember, don't expose

    However, Andy was a smooth talker, so the eldest member of the Drayton family liked him. Because of that, the head of the family tolerated him. That was why Andy, who was just a member of the branch family, dared to be so cocky.Andy saw Howard standing at the side from the corner of his eye as he spoke. He thought of what Howard said earlier, and that made his blood boil.He pointed at Howard and bellowed, "Uncle Derrick, this Howard is trash as well. You have no idea. I told him I was a member of the Drayton family, yet he did not take our family seriously at all."Not only did he have his men capture me, but he said cockily that he wanted to lock me up forever, and nobody could stop him."Weren't you very cocky before this, Mr. Mosier? Go on. Continue acting cocky in front of my uncle now. Detain me and lock me up forever."Andy took a couple of steps closer to Howard as he said that. He extended his hands arrogantly and said, "Come on. I have my hands stretched out for you. Hu

    Soon, Andy and the thugs from the nightclub yesterday were released.Andy saw Derrick standing at the entrance of the police headquarters at a glance. He got so excited that he shouted, "Uncle Derrick! Uncle Derrick!"Fletcher's subordinates were incredibly excited to see Derrick as well. All of them shouted, "Mr. Derrick Drayton!"One of the subordinates was in Drunham City because Derrick arranged for him to be there. After he was brought to Derrick's side, he smiled apologetically and said, "Thank you for saving me, sir. Don't worry. Fletcher's faction and properties are all here. I'll be able to rebuild the faction here very soon."In other words, even if Fletcher was out of the picture, he would be able to thrive in Drunham City and replace Fletcher.However, Derrick shot an icy glare at him and sneered. "Hmph! How shameless of you to say that? There are so many of you, yet you can't deal with a small loser who only married into the Stone family."If it wasn't because this w

    Howard did not expect that the Drayton family would have a connection with the Carter family. They could even produce a token from the Carter family."Mr. Derrick Drayton, I didn't expect that your family and the Carters go way back. You even got the Carter family's token out," said Howard.Derrick sneered and said, "Enough with the nonsense. Howard, my family did the Carter family a favor back then, that's why the general of the Carter family gave this token to us. He promised us that we could take out this token if we were ever in a bind in the future, and they would help us!"I'm taking out this token today to tell you that I'm going to bail Andy out of here. I'd like to see who in Drunham City has the guts to stop me!"Howard was stunned, and then he fell silent.He did not think that Derrick would take out a token from the Carter family.The Carter family was the top family in Mirstone. Nobody in Mirstone would dare to go against the Carter family. Derrick became even more

    Meanwhile, Derrick and his men were already at the entrance of the police headquarters.Derrick's eyes were burning with rage as he looked at the door that was shut tightly. A sneer appeared on his lips as he said, "Hmph. Looks like they already know I'm coming, so they are deliberately trying to assert dominance."Then, he asked his driver next to him, "Where are our men? Have they all arrived?"The driver nodded and said, "They're here, Mr. Derrick. They are all waiting at the side. We'll tear down the main door to the police headquarters once you give the command."Derrick nodded with satisfaction. Then, he shouted at the police headquarters, "Howard! You're just the chief of the police headquarters! How dare you lock me outside?""I'd like to see how powerful you are today, Howard! Come on, guys. Take it down!"At his command, a group of burly men rushed out of the black van next to him. They were all holding thick bats, and they rushed up to the door ferociously.Right at t

    At first, Yafe and the rest of the Stone family were stunned after they heard what Liam said. Then, they all burst out laughing.Yafe looked at Liam with a mocking gaze and said, "Are you kidding me, Liam? You're going to get the Draytons to come and apologize in person? Come on, that's the Drayton family we're talking about! Do you think they are just some nobody?"Right now, I don't want to waste my breath anymore. As long as you're able to stop the Drayton family from targeting us, I'm more than grateful. Don't you forget that you're the one who wanted to leave the Stone family? So, stop dragging us into your mess."Liam shot the crowd with an icy glare and brought Celena out of the Stone Mansion.Celena was still in a slight daze after they got into the car. Liam put on her safety belt for her and asked, "What's the matter, dear? Are you still worried about the Draytons?"Celena nodded and replied, "Yes. After all, all these were caused by the conflict between Andy and us. Jus

    Liam wanted to ask what the family heirloom was, but he had no choice but to let it be after he heard what Yonatan said.However, Liam heard Yonatan's voice again, saying, "I've never seen that thing, but I heard from the Drayton family members that it was from a big shot in the military."The military?Liam's eyebrows furrowed once he heard it had something to do with the military. Then, he kicked Yonatan away, making him land next to the thugs.Yonatan passed out because of that kick.Once the thugs saw their leader was out cold, they took a couple of steps back in fear.However, Liam did not care about them at all. He looked at Yafe and the others instead.Once the Stone family members saw that they were out of the woods, they became cocky again.Yafe and Sherah, in particular, were so cocky that they ran up to Liam and condemned him, "Look what you've done! You're bad luck! What else can you do other than cause us trouble? Do you know who that is? He is from the Drayton fam

    Yonatan was infuriated and bellowed, "So this is how you're going to play! Alright! I'm not going to stop until I kill you today!"Yonatan was radiating an intense desire to battle. That was the air exuded by a fighter of Fourth Order War King caliber.The Stone family was so frightened by the air he exuded that their faces turned pale. All of them took more than ten steps back in fear, afraid they would be injured by mistake.Yonatan clenched his fist and charged at Liam like a ferocious beast. His fist was packing so much power that it created a sonic boom, cutting through the air and going for Liam's face.The punch was so powerful that it could kill a bull right away.The Stone family thought Liam was going to die. Nobody would be able to survive a punch like that.Yonatan thought the same. He was very confident in his ability. He looked into Liam and knew he used to be a soldier, as well as a good fighter. However, so what?No matter how skilled Liam was in combat, could he

    The moment Liam stepped into view, the Stone family members lit up as if they had spotted their guardian angel. They pointed at him, their voices rising in a chorus of relief and accusation. "Mr. Yonatan, look over here! It's Liam! I said they weren't with us!""Exactly! Mr. Yonatan, see for yourself, Liam's not part of our family!""Mr. Yonatan, now that Liam's here, if you're looking to pin the blame on someone, he's your man!""Liam, you actually showed up. If you hadn't crossed the Drayton family, would we, the Stones, have ever been dragged into this mess?""Liam, Celena, you two are nothing but trouble. You've left the family, so why keep stirring the pot for us?"...The air crackled with the Stone family's collective outrage, their faces twisted in anger as if they were ready to rip Liam and Celena to shreds.Celena and Liam's arrival was pure happenstance. They were just in the neighborhood to check in on an old friend when they overheard Yonatan's boastful taunts.Lia

    Yonatan did not even bother to look at him. He checked his watch with a chilling laugh and said, "You've got ten minutes for Liam to show up. Don't say I didn't warn you."The words sent a wave of shock through Yafe and the rest of the Stone family, who stared at Yonatan, panic-stricken.Yafe was a mess, desperate to explain, but the sight of Yonatan's henchmen, eager and ready for a fight, stopped him dead in his tracks."Mr. Yonatan, I swear it's the truth. Liam has nothing to do with the Stone family anymore. You've made a mistake!"Yafe's face was flushed with urgency as he tried to convince the unmoved man."It's true, Mr. Yonatan! Liam and Celena were kicked out of the Stone family ages ago.""That's right! He's got nothing to do with us anymore. If you're after Liam, go to the villa at Emerald Lake. He's there, not here with us.""Mr. Yonatan, if you head over to Drunham City and ask anyone, they'll tell you the same thing: Liam and Celena have no ties to us Stones anymor
