Harold would then easily be able to destroy the family after that!It was obvious which choice was the smarter one!"Brother, you can't accept it!" Some of the elders and followers started to get anxious when they saw that Melvin was being tempted.Elder Young and Gilbert were the first lines of direct descendants. They were the true line of Youngs. They would always support the Young bloodline!Even if Harold's conditions were very tempting, they would not give in!"Why can't I agree? This concerns the life or death of the family. Are we just going to watch as the family is destroyed?""That's right. Whether it's for the benefit of the family or to maintain the family's power, we can't just watch as the family is destroyed like this. Otherwise, how will we face the ancestors."The others either supported the second line or prioritized their benefits.Elder Young was already a cripple, and Gilbert and Iris were already kicked out of the family.Since Harold was willing to gi
However, Melvin and the others were still Iris's relatives in the end. If they managed to turn back, he would consider forgiving all of them for Iris's sake.Yet, Melvin and the others were not just refusing to admit to their faults, they even decided to help Harold against him again. Leon no longer had a reason to hold back against them!"Melvin, you were lied to by Harold and Daisy before this and made a mess of the family. Are you really going to keep on committing the same mistakes now that you know the truth?" Elder Young berated. His expression was extremely dark.Even though he already knew that Melvin and the others would not support a cripple like him, he still found it hard to accept after personally going through it!"Brother, I'm sorry. I'm just trying to protect the family. I have no other choice. Please don't blame me," Melvin sighed and said."You-" Elder Young trembled in anger, but he could do nothing about it."Very well! Mister Young, you definitely made the ri
It was obvious that he planned on doing the same thing, capturing Iris or Ruth again just like last time. As long as he was able to capture one of them to threaten Leon, Leon would have to let Jacob go!"Die!" Leon had a murderous look in his eyes.He turned around and launched an incredibly powerful strike at Harold. He planned on crippling Harold before anything else!"Preposterous! I want to see who would dare harm my granddaughter!" At that moment, an angry shout was heard. Over a dozen figures emerged. George appeared with the experts from the Collins!When he arrived, he saw Harold attacking Ruth and Iris. George was furiousHe was worried that Leon would not be able to stand up against Harold, so he did not even think about it as he charged forward with an incredibly powerful strike, targeting Harold's back.With Leon's attack in front, it effectively pincered Harold.Feeling George's impressive attack, Harold found himself incredibly worried.He knew that Leon was onl
He found out about Ruth being kidnapped by Jacob from Anson.He never expected Leon to be able to sneak in while just being a peak Supreme Master, saving Ruth and Iris under Harold's nose!It definitely surprised him a lot.However, that was a good thing. As long as Ruth was safe, he could help Leon against Harold without holding back!"Elder Collins, are the Collins going to help Leon this time?" Harold said coldly.He already expected the Collins to come help Leon. So, he was not surprised at their appearance at all."What do you think?Harold, we already said that we would protect Leon for three years. As the Northern King, you have no sense of honor at all! You didn't just attack Leon brazenly, you even had Jacob capture my granddaughter! I'll have to teach you a lesson today. You'll pay a price for your arrogance!" George said angrily. He had an incredibly cold glint in his eyes."Just with you and these few men? I don't think you're capable of that!" Harold sniffed, not tak
"Well, George, you never thought I'd have backup, did you? I've already allied with the Fields—otherwise, why would I dare to attack Leon and risk going against you—the Collins?" Harold cackled. "Harold, you crook!" George's heart sank as he took in a deep breath. He was in such a rush that he only managed to bring a dozen or so martial artists with him, but the Fields were different—they brought most, if not all, of their best fighters with them! Besides Walter, another one of the Fields' master martial artists, Denzel, who was also at the Overlord State, joined the battle, along with a few other warriors at the Semi Overlord State. With the Fields, Harold, and Melvin combining forces, the three of them could easily take down any of the major families in Springfield City! Even if George brought all of the Collins' best fighters along with him, they still would not be a match for Harold at all! There was no doubt who would be the winner in this battle! "Thank you, George!
"Leon, the others and I will help you fend them off, and you take Jacob hostage, then try to find a way to escape with Ruth and Iris," George instructed in a low voice. Not only were Leon and the Collins working hand in hand, but Leon even risked his life to sneak into the Youngs and rescue Ruth from Jacob! Therefore, there was no way George could stand by and watch idly when Leon fell into Harold and the Fields' hands! Fortunately, Leon managed to capture Jacob, God knows how! With Jacob as a hostage, and with George, who was already at the Intermediate Overlord state, leading the rest of the Collins' martial artists, they could fend off the opposition momentarily, and Leon would have a chance to escape with the two women! Once Leon got to safety, there would be plenty of time for him and the Collins to come up with a plan to take revenge! "There's no need to escape! Don't worry, Elder Collins, I'll take care of Harold and the Fields. You just have to help me with one thing
However, now, Harold already blocked off all their escape routes, and Leon would never be able to run away even if he wanted to! "Let me warn you, Leon Wolf—let go of my son right now, or else I'll make sure you, Iris, and the rest of her family die alongside him!" Harold snapped, his expression ruthless. "Let go of Jacob? In your dreams! I've already told you—I will kill your son right before your eyes so that you'll be able to taste for yourself just how it feels to lose a loved one! I'm a man of my word!" Leon scoffed as he lifted Jacob off the ground by his neck. "Don't you dare, Leon Wolf! If you do so, my father will rip you into shreds!" Jacob exclaimed, writhing as he gazed at Leon with a look of pure hatred. Now that Harold and the Fields were at a clear advantage, Jacob grew even more confident that Leon would not dare to hurt him. he was not an idiot, after all! He had nothing to worry about! "You'll find out soon enough! You bastard—not only did you almost kill L
George let out a cry, then sent out a punch in retaliation straight toward Harold without a second thought. "Old George, you should be fighting us instead!" Walter scoffed. He and Denzel sprang into action, leaping right into George's path. "Leon, what are you standing there for? Run!" Ruth screamed in frustration, then reached out to grab hold of Leon, but he did not budge. "Harold, now that Jacob’s dead, you're next!" a glimmer of malice flashed through Leon's eyes and he sprinted straight toward Harold, his arm cocked back in a fist. "Die, you twat!" Harold yelled with bloodshot eyes. He knew that Leon was only at the Peak Supreme State and could never withstand his Thunder Strike! Now that Leon willingly stepped up to the battle, this was exactly what Harold wanted. He immediately channeled more power into his fist, intending to kill Leon once and for all! "Leon, you idiot!" George almost exploded in anger at this sight. He risked everything to save Leon, even at the
