With that punch, Ryker broke Asher's rib, forcing him to move backward and throw up a mouthful of blood.While Ryker had the upper hand, he quickly followed up with a kick on Asher's chest. Seeing that Asher was hanging while gritting his teeth and refusing to surrender, Ryker sneered and said, "You must have a death wish."Upon saying that, Ryker kicked Asher's stomach violently again.Asher threw up a big mouthful of blood again. He dug his fingers into the floor so hard that he was bleeding from his nails.Chandler felt absolutely terrible to see Asher in this state. "Asher, stop fighting. Just surrender," he shouted.However, Asher clenched his jaws as he fixed his gaze on Ryker, ignoring the blood that kept flowing out of the corner of his mouth.He could not surrounder. Biskeland would be an embarrassment if he did not defeat Ryker. If he were to surrender, Ryker would become even more cocky.Thinking of that, Asher gritted his teeth and stood up. He was as pale as a sheet
"Mr. Keaton, since the commander-in-chief of the Pendragon Warriors is not here yet, why don't I go first and see how powerful Ryker is."A deep voice sounded in the crowd.Chandler and the others looked toward the voice and saw a man walking out of the crowd. He looked ordinary but much more muscular than the average man.Everyone was stunned. Nobody knew where he came from.However, he had the guts to step forward and fight for his country at that moment, which made Chandler admire him. He asked, "May I know who you are, my good man?"The man was calm as he answered, "I was once a soldier from the Pendragon War Zone. My name is Gage Rangel. I used to work under our commander, and I've learned plenty from him. But I had to leave the war zone because of some special circumstances. Since the commander is not here yet, let me have a match with this top fighter from Abashidze."Chandler and the crowd were delighted when they heard that Gage was from the Pendragon War Zone. Chandler
"As to be expected of King Pendragon's subordinate! How cool of him!""Holy crap! Mr. Rangel is awesome!""He defeated his opponent in just one move! Did you see that? That's Biskeland's warrior!""That's so impressive!"The crowd cheered enthusiastically after a few seconds of silence.A faint smile appeared on Chandler's face. He looked at Gage with approval and said, "You truly were King Pendragon's subordinate!"Then Chandler looked at Craig and smiled, "As I said, Ambassador Tull, young men who are too aggressive have to pay a price."Craig's face darkened. He glared at Ryker, who was lying unconscious on the ground. Then, he cursed, "Fuck. What a loser."Mr. Keaton, this is not over. We have more fighters. There's no telling who will be the winner in the end. "Craig waved his hand upon saying that. Then, Preston walked out from behind him.He looked at Preston with an icy look and said, "Preston, don't forget what I told you. Don't let me down.""Yes, sir!" Preston an
After Preston flung Gage away, he punched Gage's abdomen aggressively again as the crowd watched.At a loud thud, Gage threw up a big mouthful of blood. His abdomen was visibly sunken after the heavy blow.Preston did not pull his punches at all. He went right in for the kill, crushing Gage's organs and breaking his ribs.The difference between their skill levels was too drastic. Gage was not Preston's match at all. He was having difficulty trying to stand up straight, let alone fight back.However, Gage was still gritting his teeth. Even when blood kept oozing out of the corner of his mouth, he did not make a sound, let alone surrender.Chandler felt terrible to see Gage looking like this. He quickly shouted, "Stop, Gage! Hurry up and surrender! Don't fight anymore!"He could not watch Gage being beaten to death. Even if Craig would mock him, he could not let Gage die.However, Gage was still clenching his teeth as hard as he could and holding on.As a former soldier from the
At the sound of a crack, Gage's other wrist was broken after Preston stomped on it."Ah!" Gage could no longer endure the excruciating pain and let out a miserable scream. His entire body was shaking. His face was flushed. However, both his eyes were filled with determination.A Pendragon Warrior could fight to the death, but he would never surrender.Tears were welling in Chandler's eyes as he shouted at Gage, "Stop fighting, Gage! Hurry up and surrender!""Yes, Mr. Rangel! Hurry up and surrender!""Mr. Rangel, you've done great! Hurry up and surrender!""Stop fighting! Stop holding on! You're going to die if you continue fighting!"The crowd started to persuade Gage. They admired a hero like Gage, but they could not watch him lose his life.However, Gage was still gritting his teeth and holding on. He simply refused to say that he would surrender.Seeing the way Gage acted got Preston feeling incredibly annoyed. He just kept kicking Gage as he bellowed, "Fuck! Hurry up and s
Upon saying that, Liam took a pill and fed it to Gage.Then, Liam got up, removed his battle robe, and tossed it to Calum. He was ready to get into the ring.Calum held the battle robe with both his arms and glanced at Preston, who looked cocky in the ring. In a frosty voice, Calum said, "Let me do it, sir. You do not need to fight this kind of person yourself."Liam shook his head calmly and said, "Watch Gage. As for him, I'll take care of him myself. He has asked for me. Of course, I'll accept the challenge."Liam walked right into the ring upon saying that. His gaze was calm as he looked at Preston and said, "Are you the one who said you wanted to defeat me?"Preston looked cocky. He surveyed Liam and jeered, "You're the commander-in-chief of the Pendragon Warriors? The one who's said to be the strongest commander in Biskeland? It doesn't look like there's anything impressive about you. Don't cry after I beat you up later."Liam was more than 180 centimeters tall. He looked mu
Liam's actions left the crowd on tenterhooks. They were all watching so nervously that they clenched their fists.Chandler was a little confused. Feeling nervous, he said, "The commander—""Don't worry. There must be a reason why he's doing this," Calum interjected before Chandler could finish, sounding incredibly confident.Right then, Liam was almost backed into a corner of the ring. Suddenly, he called out to Gage."Gage, observe. This is how you're supposed to use the combo I taught you."Upon saying that, Liam, who retreated the whole time, suddenly launched an attack. He clenched his fist and punched Preston hard in his abdomen.In the meantime, he grabbed Preston's neck with his other hand.A crack could be heard coming from Preston's neck. In an instant, he grimaced in pain and looked at Liam in shock.As Gage watched from the stretcher, he exclaimed, "Bravo!"While the crowd watched, Preston grabbed his neck in great pain. His mouth was opened, but he could not make a
"Hahaha! Look who's cocky now! How dare you have the guts to challenge our commander-in-chief of the Pendragon Warriors! You must have a death wish!""That's right! You barbarians! Go on and be all cocky, then!""Trash! Get up, you Abashidze trash! Continue the challenge! Weren't you very cocky earlier?""All of you are the losers! Trash like you is not worthy to have a match with us from Biskeland!"The crowd started jeering using the same words Craig had said earlier.Craig's expression was darkened as he sat in the audience. He clenched his fists tight under the table.As he listened to the crowd's mockery and applause and saw Liam pinning Preston's head on the ground, he got so angry that he was huffing and puffing.Preston struggled with all his might in the ring, trying to free himself from Liam's grip and raise his head.However, no matter how hard he tried, Liam's hand was still pressing on his head like a massive rock, making him unable to move."You know me. Have you
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
