Rescuing Miranda must be done without wasting a second."How's my friend?" Rosie looked at Terence."It's just a regular coma," Woody said with a hint of dark humor. "A slap could wake him up."Rosie believed it!She stepped forward and delivered a slap.Pak!With the sharp sound of a slap, Terence suddenly opened his eyes."Who the heck has the audacity to hit even me... Wait, Rosie, it's you?"Upon seeing the person in front of him clearly, Terence quickly changed his words and scrambled up from the ground."What are you doing up?"Terence displayed a look of deep concern, perfectly embodying the attitude of someone who was overly eager to please.Before Rosie could explain, he saw Woody and immediately became furious. "It must be that guy causing trouble! He was the one who hit me just now. Rosie, stand back, I need to get back at him! You've got a death wish hitting me, haven't you?"Rosie's expression turned stern. "Terence, what nonsense are you talking about? Mr. Hen
"I'm sorry, I'm used to having a free and easy lifestyle and I'm not interested in working for someone else."Woody didn't hesitate and immediately said no.The great Majestic Ruler, becoming a personal doctor for someone?Seriously?Neither the minor Lanister family nor even the exalted royal family had this privilege.To outsiders, the Lanister family appeared wealthy and powerful, making them seem unattainable.At Woody's place, they were at best considered moderate wealth compared to the top-tier wealthy, with a notable gap still existing.Even without looking at everything else, just one person, Brayden, was enough to make the Lanister family submit.Brayden truly respected Woody from the bottom of his heart.The passengers were all giving Woody strange looks.He actually turned it down!This was such a great chance to make a big leap forward, and he was just going to let it slip by?Some people expressed disdain, believing that Woody was doing it on purpose to increas
Woody couldn't help but raise an eyebrow in doubt, wondering how that could possibly be on the way.That was just unbelievable!He was tempted to remind Rosie that her current behavior wasn't much different from Terence's, who was always trying to please without receiving much in return.Rosie excitedly said, "To be honest, my purpose for coming to Mount Bashmore is to find a cure for my family's hereditary disease. I heard a rumor that a very rare crystal, known as the True Essence of Heavenly Crystals, is found in Mount Bashmore."This medication is incredibly effective for our illness, so I came over to give it a try. I never would have guessed that Mr. Henderson is also going to Mount Bashmore. It seems we are truly destined to meet!"Woody observed her and felt she didn't appear to be lying, so he started to let his guard down a bit."By the way, Mr. Henderson, what brings you to Mount Bashmore?" asked Rosie.Woody replied, "Pretty much the same as you, I guess.""However,
"Alright then!"Rosie had a clear look of disappointment and regret on her face.Terence felt extremely pleased, as the sense of crisis was instantly lifted. He finally wouldn't have to see that annoying person anymore.Rosie watched Woody leave, but the look of disappointment on her face remained.Seeing the situation, Terence felt uncomfortable and urged, "Rosie, let's hurry and get in the car too.""Oh no!" Rosie suddenly remembered something very important and said in frustration, "How could I forget the most important thing!""What is it?" Terence asked quickly."I forgot to get Mr. Henderson's phone number!" Rosie said, frustrated.……On a winding mountain road.On one side was a sheer cliff, and on the other side were towering mountains.The sky was overcast with thick, dark clouds.Rudolf hit the brakes and said, "It looks like there's been an accident up ahead."Sitting in the back row, cozied up next to Woody, Penny said without looking up, "Can't we take a deto
"She's so beautiful, it would be a real waste to just kill her. Once I'm done with her, everyone can have some fun too."After all, traveling such a long distance to carry out a mission is quite exhausting, so consider this a small reward for everyone!"The mercenaries initially had fierce and menacing expressions, but upon hearing those words, they immediately showed a lewd demeanor."Tomas, you shameless scoundrel!"Rudolf was extremely upset. "There's a basic principle that even in conflict, family should remain untouched. If you can't even adhere to this fundamental underground code, how are you any different from a beast?"Tomas felt no shame at all. "What nonsense about 'the underground code of ethics'! It's just you old guys clinging stubbornly to outdated traditions. As young people in this new era, these things don't hold us back at all!"Rudolf's face turned pale with anger, his lips trembling, and he coughed up blood in frustration. "You...""You old fool, I know you'
On either side of the cliff, there was a sniper hiding in ambush.Earlier, Rudolf was injured by one of the snipers.Tomas, often seen as an incompetent and spoiled rich kid, surprisingly managed to organize such a meticulous assassination plan on short notice, which was quite impressive.Bang!Two snipers fired almost at the same time.Two massive armor-piercing shells left trails in the sky.One from the left and one from the right, both bullets pierced through the golden shield and immediately headed for Woody's temple.This scene completely terrified Penny!"Watch out, Mr. Henderson!" Rudolf was equally terrified.If anything were to happen to Woody, how would he explain it to those important people?A bullet of this size, with such immense kinetic energy, would hit a person and cause their body to explode on impact, leading to immediate death.Besides, now they were going straight for the head!Woody calmly raised both hands and caught it effortlessly.In the next sec
Penny quickly followed the instructions.Rudolf looked embarrassed and said, “I've let Mr. Henderson down again. Getting old really does mean I can't keep up like I used to.”He himself couldn't remember how many times he had taken the Restoration Pill in front of Woody.That was so embarrassing!Woody waved his hand dismissively and said, "Don't talk like that. You're still in good health and living to a ripe old age is certainly no problem for you. Mr. Schubert Senior, you can sit in the back and rest for a while. I'll drive."Rudolf quickly said, "How can that be? I've already recovered after taking the Restoration Pill. Let me handle it!"He had never seen Woody drive and assumed that Woody's driving skills were average.The terrain here was complex, and with the winding mountain roads, it demanded a high level of driving skill.With one careless move, there was a chance of falling off the cliff, resulting in a total car wreck and loss of life."Don't worry, I got this," W
Rosie appeared overly enthusiastic, which made Penny feel a slight sense of crisis. She immediately clung tightly to Woody's arms to declare her claim. "That's too much trouble for you, we will manage on our own," Woody said, maintaining his earlier stance of polite refusal. In fact, Rudolf didn't prepare any camping equipment. His original plan was to stay overnight at a local's house at the foot of the mountain and then head into the mountains the next morning. However, as things stood, not only were the villager's homes full, but even the open spaces outside had been completely taken up. If they wanted to pitch a tent, the only options left were the roadside or a villager's courtyard. The bigger issue was that Rudolf hadn't brought a tent, meaning they would have to make do with sleeping in the car. With three people in one car, it was far too cramped. "There's no trouble at all, you're my lifesaver. This is the least I can do to repay you!"Rosie seemed to have notic
Solomon didn't dare to resist and could only comply.By the time everyone arrived at the back of the mountain, the sky was already starting to lighten.Directly ahead lied a deep canyon with steep cliffs.Woody tied one end of the rope to the bridge pillar, slung the coil of rope over his shoulder, and nodded to the people around him."Is there something wrong?" Woody asked the battered elder.The elder quickly responded, "No problem!"Woody pushed off with one foot, launching himself into the air toward the other side of the cliff.While Woody was halfway through the flight, his body began to plummet downward.From this angle, he didn't stand a chance of making it across.At that moment, a giant eagle swooped in from the side.The elder stood at the edge of the cliff and blew the eagle whistle.The giant eagle spread its wings, and with Woody stepping onto its back, they instantly shifted from falling to ascending.In the next moment, he landed steadily at the edge of the
Woody's bold statements echoed throughout the entire Martial Arts Union Headquarters.In the past, if anyone dared to speak to their union president like that, Solomon wouldn't even need to say anything–the followers alone would leave the person questioning their life choices!In front of the Headquarters, how could he be allowed to speak recklessly?The current situation was that Woody not only said something, but also tore down their gate and injured dozens of their people.Of course, this number wasn't set in stone.If anyone else dared to step up, Woody certainly wouldn't hold back and was more than willing to help the Martial Arts Union continue increasing the number of casualties."You... have quite the attitude!"Solomon, being the union president of the alliance, held a certain standing and position, so it was unlikely for him to just back down easily.In reality, he had been feeling extremely anxious for quite some time.The eight seasoned elders teamed up and still c
He didn't want anyone to mention it, especially in public."Where are the eight elders?" Solomon's eyes were filled with rage as he shouted loudly."Here!" The eight elders spoke in unison, giving their response."That person destroyed our place and harmed our followers; he should be struck down on the spot to serve as a warning to others," Solomon said through gritted teeth.The eight elders responded in unison, "Yes, sir!""Attack!"The eight of them were all masters of martial arts who had reached the Peak level.They had impressive performance!At the headquarters, in terms of both status and strength, they were second only to Solomon.Even the legendary Martial God wouldn't stand a chance against the combined strength of these eight individuals.They coordinated seamlessly, surrounding Woody and launching a flurry of fierce attacks from all directions.If it were someone else, they would have been torn apart by them.Woody remained calm, letting his mind wander for a m
In the darkness, countless shadows darted back and forth.When they clearly saw that the gateway, which symbolized the Martial Arts Union, had been destroyed and was now nothing more than a pile of rubble, they were immediately filled with rage."Who dared to be so bold and fearless!""How dare you tear down the Martial Arts Union's gate? You're asking for trouble.""Whoever it is, they're definitely not a good person. Let's deal with them thoroughly first and ask questions later!"A crowd filled with anger saw what appeared to be a figure standing in front of the ruins."Hey kid, did you see who did it?"A sharp-eyed person noticed that the figure was a young man and immediately started questioning him."I'm warning you, this situation is serious. You need to tell everything you've seen, or else you'll face the consequences."Woody stood calmly and said, "I saw it.""Come on, who is it?" a group of people demanded in unison.Woody said calmly, "That's me!""What?!"The gr
Rudolf immediately became anxious. He shielded his granddaughter, Penny, while loudly rebuking, "Mr. Edwards, is this really how your Martial Arts Union treats guests? If word gets out, we won't be afraid of becoming the laughingstock of our peers in the martial arts community!"Solomon was completely unfazed. "You think you're worthy of being called guests?"Faced with a large group of people who were eyeing them aggressively, the three of them were no match at all.It was quickly dealt with!"Solomon, aren't you worried that Mr. Snider's disciple, Woody, will come looking for trouble if you do this?" Rudolf shouted loudly while struggling.Solomon couldn’t care less. “If he dares to come, I will make sure he gets a taste of being a prisoner! The person you were taught by is no good, so it's likely you won't be any better. It's fitting that you pay off your teacher's debt. Let both the old man and you face the consequences together!"What's all the fuss about Woody? He's just a
Solomon was using very offensive language.Miranda had a cold look on her face, but since she was on someone else's turf, she couldn't act out.Jaycee was actually Solomon's sister, and there was an age difference of over twenty years between them.After Jaycee was born, her parents passed away due to illness. Before their death, they entrusted her, still an infant, to the care of Solomon.Solomon had a hard time raising his younger sister by himself. Now, as he watched her grow into a beautiful and talented young woman, she was becoming increasingly admired by people in the martial arts community.There were so many people trying to arrange marriages with the Edwards family that they practically wore down the doorstep from their frequent visits.Solomon was overwhelmed with options, dreaming of his sister marrying into a wealthy family and securing a beautiful marriage.Dreams shattered!Jaycee, who was as fresh and naive, ended up being paired with someone considered old and
To be honest, Woody was quite intrigued.Every time he got into a scuffle with the underlings, he couldn't help but deeply miss Alexia.The esteemed Princess of the Epochal Realm was clearly being used by him as a henchman.The key point is that Alexia wasn't upset at all; instead, she was quite happy to help."No way."Reason overcame impulse, and Woody frowned as he said, "You have to stay at home. Only then can I be at ease."Alexia's expression fell. "Alright then!"Woody laughed and said, "You're being so obedient, I must reward you for that.""What kind of reward?" Her ears perked up with excitement, and her eyes were sparkling.Woody pulled a serpent's core of his pocket and said, "I promised you a gift earlier, and now I'm making good on that promise."Alexia's eyes lit up with excitement again. "The serpent's inner core!"In the past, she would not have paid any attention to the inner core of this quality.Every extra look is an insult to the title "Princess of the
Edwin was, of course, unconvinced! As the teacher, he had failed, but the student had succeeded on the first try. If it wasn't sheer luck, then what was it? Woody didn't respond and picked up a second heavenly crystal. Moments later, he succeeded again! Edwin's eyes widened in amazement, as though he witnessed something truly extraordinary. Meanwhile, the admiration on Alexia's face skyrocketed. "Try it again!" Edwin was still unwilling to accept it. This time, Woody didn't humor him and directly put away the remaining heavenly crystals. "What's the meaning of this?" Edwin widened his eyes. Woody stood up to leave and without looking back, he said, "Thanks!""Wait, are you sure you've fully mastered it?"Edwin hurried after him and said, "What if something goes wrong? I can help you figure it out!""No need. If my master believes he's fine, then he's definitely going to be fine," Alexia said, blocking the old man and speaking with solemn assurance. At that moment, Edwin's
Edwin stiffened his neck, trying to maintain a normal expression to cover up his embarrassment as his earlier demonstration had ended in failure. Although he knew the method, his lack of practice over the years had led to a mistake, which was understandable.""Ha..." Alexia let out a big yawn, her eyelids feeling as though they were weighed down by a thousand pounds; she was getting sleepy!Edwin's lengthy lecture had successfully bored her into a drowsy state. As for the later parts of the lesson, it didn't register in her mind at all; everything he said went in one ear and out the other, leaving no trace behind. "Carry on…"Alexia stretched lazily signaling for the two of them to continue without being affected by her. This left Edwin feeling utterly defeated! He felt as though he had been slapped in the face! Putting a student to sleep was already embarrassing enough, but to make matters worse, his demonstration had also failed. "It's fine, let me try." Woody volunteered.
