Chapter 601

Author: Lorelei Thunder
Even if the bullets whizzed past Julian, he wouldn't have gotten hurt.

But Jeremiah had grabbed him, and as Julian was seated in his wheelchair, he hadn't even registered what was happening until he was critically hit by a few shots.

He felt a shiver running through his chest, and suddenly, a round hole appeared on his shirt.

Soon, blood started flowing from it.

"Jerry, what… are you doing?" Julian's throat was dry, and his voice was weak.

He widened his eyes, unable to believe that Jeremiah, his own brother, would use him as a shield against the deadly bullets.

Jeremiah merely glanced at him emotionlessly.

Julian seemed to have understood the look in his eyes. Obviously, Jeremiah was telling Julian that he should take the bullets for him since he was a cripple and would be a useless person even if he continued living.

"You…" Julian was furious. But at the same time, he hated himself for understanding the look in Jeremiah's eyes.

With a "thud", Julian toppled from the whee

    "You're wrong to say that no one will like Woody. We… like him!" Despite the blush on Sasha's cheeks, her voice was loud and clear. Given her reserved personality ever since she was young, she wouldn't have said this out loud in public if this had happened any other day."As long as Woody is willing, I'd marry him and consummate the marriage right now." Compared to Sasha, Calla was more outspoken and had the bravery to make bolder statements.Marie was standing in between Sasha and Calla. She made her stand as well, saying, "I'd marry him too!"Finally, Helen calmly said, "I don't want any wedding gifts. In fact, I'll pay for everything and even present Cartwright Group as the wedding gift."Only then did the crowd understand that the four ladies were here as Woody's backup.Pamela could feel the continuous slaps on her face as the women spoke one after another. Right after she mentioned that no one would like Woody, four gorgeous ladies appeared and confessed their feelings for

    If Pamela was going to marry Jeremiah, Sasha thought that they had to do something about it. Later on, she brought Calla and Marie along. Together with Helen, they came to Maximillion Hotel to back Woody up.Helen even took up the costs of their outfits, makeup, and hairdo. After they dressed up to the nines, they headed for the hotel and arrived just in time to witness Pamela making a dig at Woody. Without wasting a second, they opened fire at her. It was at that moment that Pamela realized she was the clown in the room. As Pamela was faced with disdainful and sarcastic looks from the guests, she wished that she could crawl into a hole."You're wrong, Pamela," Woody said with a straight face.Drowned in embarrassment and fury, Pamela lashed back at him, shouting, "What was I wrong about? Woody Henderson, I never thought that you'd be such a person. Does it bring you a sense of achievement in humiliating your ex-wife?"Emotionlessly, Woody answered, "You claimed that I was he

    Not even in Brutus' wildest dreams did he imagine that he would become a human shield for Jeremiah. In fact, Brutus felt that Jeremiah did nothing wrong when he'd used Julian as a shield earlier. On the contrary, he'd praised Jeremiah for his quick reflexes.After all, what was the problem with sacrificing someone else to save himself? If Jeremiah died, Brutus would have no chance to be a part of an elite family. Hence, between Julian and Jeremiah, he would side with Jeremiah without a second thought.But now, Brutus noticed that he was wrong. The person he had looked up to as his new brother-in-law was inhumane. In order to save his skin, Jeremiah wouldn't think twice about sacrificing his own brother, much less Brutus.Jeremiah and Pamela weren't married yet either. Today was merely their engagement.If Jeremiah wanted to marry Pamela, shouldn't he try his best to get into his future in-laws' good books? In Brutus' subconscious mind, he'd thought that Jeremiah would harm th

    Suddenly, Dickson turned around and angrily pointed at Woody. "You killed my son, Woody Henderson!""Are you blind, old man?" Alexia snapped. "The one who killed your son was Jeremiah Goldblum! He used your son as a shield. How could you be so shameless and blame my master instead of seeking revenge from him?""Exactly! You're shameless!" Ginger agreed.Sasha snorted. "It's not surprising that they're doing something like this. They're a wacky family and a bunch of ingrates." Dickson argued, shouting, "How is this not connected to Woody? If he hadn't attacked Jeremiah so sneakily, my son wouldn't have died!"Trudy started shouting as well, "Yes, the main culprit is Henderson!"Alexia couldn't stand them anymore. "I've seen shameless people, but none as shameless as you. You're not even fit to claim yourselves to be human. "Should I kill them all, Master?"Woody glanced at Pamela, whose eyes were filled with hatred. However, nobody knew whether her hatred was for Jeremiah or

    Claudia stared around to be sure that everything which was unfolding before her eyes was real and not just her imagination. "Dear, how did things turn out this way?"Even now, she still couldn't accept the truth. Although the George family wasn't the wealthiest, they were easily considered one of the more prominent families in Centralton.They ventured into business during Theo's father's generation. And by the time Theo took over the reins, they were already a renowned, wealthy family.Not only did Theo inherit the family business and expanded it, but he also had a hobby of collecting items. With his strong financial background, he became well-known amongst the collectors. Just the items in his safe were enough to finance their family for several generations.Even if Theo made a loss in business, he didn't have to panic because every item in his collection would appreciate in value every year. The interest from his collections was more than the profit from his business. Not to m

    With a clenched jaw, Theo said, "They want to fight us till the end. Do they really think that I'm a sheep waiting to be slaughtered? "Contact your father immediately. We'll discuss and come up with an effective counterattack.""Are you going against the Business Association of Darea?" Claudia asked.It would be futile if they were going against the Business Association. It was such a huge organization that the George family couldn't handle."Of course not!" Despite being overwhelmed with fury, Theo didn't lose his mind. Calmly, he analyzed the situation and said, "We didn't expect that Brayden would back Henderson up, but we can be sure that he and Henderson are not closely related."I think Brayden is just helping Henderson out to either return a favor or for some other reason. Whatever it is, we'll find out later. "The Business Association has the advantage in commerce. There's nothing they can do to us if we use other methods to deal with Henderson."Claudia nodded.

    "This is not according to our protocol," Samuel seriously said. "Not only is this a last minute notice, but it's also just a verbal one. That's already going overboard, and he didn't even mention what case it is he's working on and wants us to cooperate with him. "This is not right." His subordinate smiled thoughtfully. "Mr. Hills, bear in mind that his rank is higher. Mr. Webber is also the state commander, and his signature is needed for your promotion report."You don't have to be so particular over these small details. I think you can just take it easy. Making life easy for others will make your life easy as well. Don't you agree?"Frowning, Samuel thought over his words and nodded in the end. "Okay. If they only want to borrow an office, we'll lend it to them. "Since Mr. Webber doesn't want to reveal anything and seems to be acting confidential, I'll pretend that I know everything. This can avoid awkwardness when we meet."Now was the critical period of his promotion, and

    Woody estimated that he and Ginger could absorb the snake-turtle energy from the golden tongue seven times.They slipped into a dissociative state, and time seemed to pass by very quickly.Meanwhile, outside Villa No. 1, a convoy of black jeeps brazenly drove into Lake Kaspy. As the garrison emblem was on the foremost car, the security officer didn't dare to stop them.Just then, an ear-piercing screech from the brakes instantly jolted Woody and Ginger awake.The garrison? Woody frowned at the sight of more than a dozen cars stopping in front of his house.He reckoned that Samuel wouldn't have the guts to do this given how respectful he was every time he met Woody. Moreover, he would give Woody a call and only come over after getting his permission.So, who were this group of people?The car doors swung open, and uniformed personnel hopped off the cars before marching into the yard. The man leading them looked impatient, as though he had a problem with everyone.After conf

    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

    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.
