Like a seething lion, Samuel glared at Joanna with eyes the size of golf balls, and an oppressive air was emanating from him now. Scared out of her wits, Joanna trembled and whined, "Dear, he's shouting at me!"Then, Logan held Joanna in his arms and comforted her, saying, "Don't be afraid. I'm here. "Why are you guys overreacting? She merely told a helper off. That's no reason for you to threaten my wife! "Tyga, is this your display of hospitality?""She's my wife!" Tyga roared."What?" Logan's and Joanna's eyes both widened.Due to a prolonged period of being bedridden, Bethany was weak and looked pale. Moreover, it had also been her last-minute decision to get out of bed to serve tea, so she didn't have the time to dress up and had only come out after changing into casual clothes. But before Tyga could introduce her, Joanna had jumped to the idea that Bethany was a clumsy household helper."Oh, no! I'm sorry, Mrs. Morghoul!" Hurriedly, Joanna trotted over and put on a
"Mr. Henderson, what's the matter?" Helen quickly popped the question. Could the supplement really be fake? That seemed unlikely to her. Given Logan's status, he wouldn't be bothered to buy a fake product as a gift. Otherwise, he wouldn't have reacted so defensively. But on the other hand, Woody couldn't have made a mistake because he was such a highly skilled doctor.Then, Woody explained, "That's not a supplement at all. It's just an imitation product. However, the imitators did do a good job at making the product look exactly the same as the real thing. Regular people wouldn't be able to tell the difference at all, and even an expert may mistake it for the real thing."The original supplement has a subtle color because it doesn't use any artificial colorings, but this fake product has an unnatural, bright color, which isn't obvious to the eyes. "Mrs. Morghoul is still weak, so she has to take supplements that come from natural sources. This product, however, will just weak
"He used the nutrition store's name to cheat people by selling fake products…?" Joanna was shocked beyond words, and her face displayed a series of dramatic expressions.The truth was out!Logan blushed. He had never been so embarrassed publicly in his life before. "How much did he con from you?" he asked Joanna with wide eyes."Eight hundred thousand," Joanna uttered softly.Instantly, Logan lost his cool. "Didn't you tell me that it was 1.8 million? I'd already transferred the money to your account. So, why didn't you buy it from the store?""I did it to save money for you. It's not easy for us to make money, and the price difference was more than half. Plus, Mr. Cooper kept emphasizing that the product was authentic. Yet, he conned me. "I'm a victim as well, dear!" Joanna said pitifully.Logan was speechless. This was the woman he had chosen, and he couldn't bring himself to hit or reprimand her. Who could he vent his frustrations on then?Alas, Woody was right. T
Joanna placed her arm on the table. "Since you're a miracle doctor, you should be able to read my pulse, right?""I can skip that trouble and tell you right away that both of you have issues." Then, Woody turned to Logan and said, "Your issue is more severe. There's an ominous object on you with a strong negative energy."Logan was stunned while Joanna immediately ran her mouth, "You're the ominous one! How dare you curse my husband!"Wait a minute, aren't you a doctor? Why are you speaking about negative energy? When did you turn into a diviner now? "Did everyone hear him? You finally revealed your true colors, huh? You must be a conman and made a lucky guess about the fake product earlier."Logan furrowed his eyebrows a little. "Dear, I would like to listen to what he has to say next.""You're too kind-hearted to listen to his bullshit, Dear. I'm afraid you'll be fooled by him." Joanna looked aggrieved.Then, Helen, unable to tolerate Joanna any longer, muttered, "And guess w
Once again, Woody shook his head and sighed. "Within three days, you'll have a bloody encounter. "If you want to be safe, refrain from unnecessarily leaving the house. That's all I can say." After those words left Woody's lips, Tyga and the others were shocked, including Helen, who had always firmly stood on Woody's side."Mr. Henderson, are you serious? I mean, do you also study the mystical arts?" she couldn't help but ask.Woody replied indifferently, "Tarot reading, astrology, divination, and such… I know a little bit of everything."He wasn't being humble, but that was the truth because his mentor had said that no one could know everything unless they were God."Dear, I really can't deal with such a shameless person," Joanna said in a huff.Logan nodded. "Me too! This brat keeps cursing me. Let's go!"Hurriedly, Tyga sprang to his feet and tried to pacify Logan, saying, "Don't be mad, Mr. Sullivan. I believe that Mr. Henderson only means well. He must have his reason for
At Woody's mention of this, Helen got embarrassed, and her lively, bright eyes widened as she flushed red.Then, Samuel earnestly asked, "Mr. Henderson, are you sure that Mr. Sullivan's life will be in danger in the next three days?"The collaboration this time was highly important to his superiors. Hence, if anything happened to Logan, Samuel and his department would be in trouble too."Besides his lucky stars, the other important reason he was fine until now was because he was at home," Woody calmly explained. "But now, he's in Tiusto, and the stars have moved. He's lost the protection of his stars, resulting in a hike in negative energy."So, in the next few days, he'll continuously have bad luck, and his life is just one part of it."Samuel nodded nervously. "Thank you for your advice, Mr. Henderson. I'll make a call right now to increase the number of people protecting Mr. Sullivan. "This guy is such a chore. Why won't he believe you?"…Meanwhile at a traffic junction, a
The man had a square jawline, and his features gave him a stern and hard look. His eyes also contained a chilling, murderous intent that would deter anyone from looking into them. All of the men were also dressed in black-colored fitting clothes, exuding an intimidating air that projected their power with every step they took. Evidently, they were skilled martial artists. "You're here, Uncle Preston!" Ryan instantly cried out like a baby as tears and snot uncontrollably streamed down his face. Preston briskly walked over and fell to his knees in front of the coffin with a loud thud. "I've arrived late, Tanner!" Then, he bowed and grieved. With eyes brightly gleaming with murderous intent, he gritted his teeth and said, "Who killed him?"Ryan shook his head. "I don't know. The people at Peak Enterprises that day either died or disappeared. In Tiusto, the only ones who are strong enough to wipe out my father and his men are Tyga Morghoul, Mason Cartwright, and the likes of th
"Who are you people?!" The sudden appearance of the violent group filled the Yorks with bewilderment. As Trudy looked at the destroyed door, she was beyond furious! After all, she'd chosen and bought that expensive door after comparing it with dozens of others. Just the smart lock alone had cost a few thousand, and she was anguished that it'd been broken!"How dare you trespass into private property in broad daylight! Do you have any idea where this is and who we are? A bunch of ignorant fools! You have no regard for the law at all!"Trudy sprang to her feet and pointed at them, roaring, "Compensate us! Not only for the cost of the door, but also for my mental damages—Ow!"Suddenly, a man in fitted clothes stepped up, grabbed Trudy's finger, and twisted it.With a loud crack, Trudy yelped in pain and fell to her knees on the floor."If you bloody say another thing, I'll kill you," the man threatened. Instantly, Trudy cowered, not daring to throw her weight around again. Ev
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.
