"How did this happen?" Trudy's eyes were wide with shock. She didn't want to believe what she was reading.Brutus was also dumbfounded. The Donnels had actually been caught in such a shocking scandal! Even Timothy had been taken away for investigation!"Can the Donnels still send their business abroad?" Trudy quickly asked with a shred of hope on her face.Dickson angrily replied, "Their medicine is all fake! What market are you talking about? I'm not sure whether or not Timothy will be able to resist arrest like this. "I'm sure Donnel Corporations will be shut down soon!"Trudy panicked and asked again, "What about our money? Tell Pamela to get Kurt to give us our money back!""You don't need to remind me. Our daughter isn't stupid!" Dickson had a bad feeling in his heart. However, when he thought about it, considering Pamela and Kurt's relationship, it shouldn't be difficult to get the money back. Besides, even if Kurthad tried to trick other people, he wouldn't try t
Pamela recalled what her finance professor had told her when she was in college. "When you envy someone's wealth, others are eyeing your capital."How could she have forgotten such a simple principle! Pamela then thought about Woody's words when he was in Royal Delicacies."I'd advise you to not do this!"In retrospect, it was really wise advice! It was just a pity that she didn't appreciate it at the time. Not to mention, she had also told Woody to mind his own business.How ridiculous! Even someone who had just been released from prison could sense the danger. Yet, someone like Pamela, an elite known as the most beautiful president in Tiusto City didn't notice anything awry. She had even agreed to it in a hurry!Since Kurt had "donated" the money and ran away, of course he wouldn't answer her calls. He must be relaxing by now and spending people's money to enjoy life. As for Timothy, Kurt couldn't care less about him. So, why would he care about the Yorks?"Pamela, yo
Meanwhile, in the sales department of Helenova Ventures, it was finally time to clock out. So, Woody walked over to Sasha."You can head home by yourself. I'll be attending the memorial service of Mr. Dakota's father," Sasha replied without looking at Woody.Woody shrugged and said, "Then come back early so your parents don't worry."After that, Sasha didn't respond, so Woody left. When Sasha's colleague saw this, he took out his phone and sent her a text."Don't worry about it, Sasha. Mr. Dakota hates him anyway, so he shouldn't be attending." Then, he stood up and said, "Let's go."…At the memorial service, a large black and white photo of Manuel was placed among white flowers. Javier was wearing a black suit in mourning. He greeted the guests who came to pay respects, all the while looking sad yet also expressionless. Meanwhile, a familiar figure knelt beside him. It was Jonah Lennon.Jonah clearly had no blood relations with the Dakotas, but he wore a white mour
It was hard to tell who made it easy for who! Woody remained calm as he turned back to look. He said, "Gentlemen, care to introduce yourself?""Boy, you're still so calm! It feels like you have a deathwish!" Slimbuckets smiled scornfully and said, "It's a pity that it's no use! Don't think that we'll appreciate it, let alone let you go!""Why are you wasting your breath with him?" another man said coldly. "Listen up, kid, you're about to die at the hands of the Reckless Brothers!"Woody narrowed his eyes slightly. He had heard of the name "Reckless Brothers" back when he was in prison. But they were nothing but desperate criminals. For the sake of money, they were willing to commit all sorts of heinous crimes, including killing people and stealing! In just a few years, their hands were stained with the blood of dozens of innocent people.Slimbuckets was a lecherous man, and countless women had been raped and assaulted by him. Meanwhile, Lil' Shorty was a drunkard who'd go
The group of thugs was dumbfounded. They had never seen such a scene before. Then, they quickly dropped their weapons and knelt on the ground to loudly beg for mercy.Now, they harbored even more resentment for Jonah in their hearts. These people weren't just ordinary people. Their strength was at least at the Innate Level!There were already 30 to 40 of them there, but even if their numbers were doubled, they would've still suffered!"We were stupid, and we offended you two experts! Please, spare us!" "We were wrong…"Their pleading was incessant, but the Reckless Brothers paid no mind. Their moves didn't relent in the slightest, and if anything, they only became even more ruthless. For them, these people weren't worthy of life. After a while, dozens of people were on the ground. Most of them had died on the spot, and those who survived got seriously injured."What trash! No fun at all!" Slimbuckets' face was covered in blood. He stuck out his tongue and tasted the bl
Blood dripped from Lil' Shorty's mouth, and he couldn't move any other part of his body except his eyes.The notorious Lil' Shorty had lost his ability to fight with merely one move!"Shorty!" Slimbuckets' eyes were about to pop out of their sockets. He growled. "Damn it, I'm going to rip you to shreds!" Then, two foot-long blades appeared in Slimbuckets' hands.He effortlessly waved the swords around, and the shadows of the blades danced around and waved into a net, closing in on Woody.As he did so, a burst of energy was released from the tip of the blades.This was the legendary "Big Dipper". It was more powerful and deadly than a single blade.However, Woody stood in his spot, unfazed and indifferent.Then, with a light wave of his hand, a gush of wind passed effortlessly through the net. Slimbuckets saw everything and was dumbfounded!Having nowhere to hide, he felt helpless and hopeless. Then, he watched blankly as the wind hit his chest.Instantly, Slimbuckets' ch
"Are there any big operations going on at the garrison?""It's such a big scene! They're probably making an arrest!""I wonder who was unfortunate enough to provoke and cause trouble with the garrison."The waiting drivers were discussing and expressing their opinions as dozens of military vehicles mightily drove on the road.The road was cleared for them as all the vehicles on the road complied and made way.The traffic lights at the intersections seemed redundant at this point.Meanwhile, Samuel tried his best to hold in his excitement as he sat in the first car of the lot.If anyone else had called and made a report, he would've been doubtful about it. After all, the Reckless Brothers were running loose. And if it were that easy to catch them, they would've been thrown into prison a long time ago.However, Woody was the one that had made the call this time, and Woody was a capable man.Samuel was sure that Woody had recognized the right people. So, if he said that it was th
But now, this achievement was Samuel's ticket to his promotion to commander. He could practically see himself receiving the highest honor and recognition at the award ceremony already.And it would all be thanks to Woody!Not only did Woody care for him like a parent would, but Woody also gave him such a huge achievement on a silver platter.Samuel was utterly grateful.After that, his team members followed after him and filed into the alley.Initially, the team members were ready to put up a fight. After all, they were arresting The Reckless Brothers. Even if it would cost them their life, it would be worth it.However, when they barged in, they were dumbfounded.The battle was already over.Everyone was then hastily dispatched to come clean up the place."Mr. Hills?" Disbelief was written on their faces, and they looked at Samuel in confusion.Samuel held his excitement in. Then, he beckoned everyone with the wave of his hand. "Bring them back and interrogate them.""Yes,
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.
