"Don't you dare!"The other Geoffreys sobered and leaped toward Leon."Know your places!" Leon scoffed and sent two waves of energy from his hands in two directions at the dozen martial artists hurrying toward him.The Geoffreys were in a hurry to rob Leon of his treasure and Daniel only took two Semi-Overlords and dozens of martial artists in the Realm of Supreme Master with him.The other Overlord and Semi-Overlords of the family were left to guard the Geoffrey Mansion.Since Leon was in the Advanced Overlord State, none of the martial artists Daniel brought could rival him."Baam!"The people closest to Leon's attack were instantly sent flying and the others barely managed to dodge the attack. Though neither of them were a match for Leon, their interference bought Daniel the time he needed.Daniel crawled up from the ground and ran despite the pain in his chest and his arm.At the same time, Owen also realized that he did not stand a chance against Leon and would not stay.
"Running away so soon? Dream on!" Leon sneered and leaped into the air. Just as he was about to go after Daniel and Owen, the martial artists of the Geoffreys and the Durkans stopped him.Knowing that they could not rival with Leon, they combined their actual energy to form a powerful attack against Leon."Anyone who stands in my way will die!" Leon launched the Double Attack with both his fists at them."Baam!"As the attacks collided, the air swirled and twisted. Before long, a few of the Geoffreys who were closest to Leon were sent flying. Though the others did not take as much damage, they all paled and collapsed onto the group with blood spewing from their mouths.Leon's targets were Daniel and Owen all along, so he proceeded to ignore the others and charged toward the two.Daniel and Owen took the opportunity to run and both felt relieved to have escaped Leon.However, before long, Leon flung his arm and sent out a dozen of small daggers toward the two."Damn!"Daniel an
"That kid's so powerful!""Even two Overlords like Elder Geoffrey and Elder Durkan struggle to escape from him."...Jaws dropped all around them as they watched how Leon forced Daniel and Owen back to where they were. Everyone was stunned by Leon's absolute strength."How can this happen?!"Daniel and Owen paled in despair.Daniel suffered far more severe injuries compared to Owen as one of his arms broke and while Owen might survive a few of Leon's attacks, he was on the brink of collapsing."Stay down!" Sensing that Daniel was at his limits, Leon turned his focus to Daniel and darted toward him."It's over!" Daniel hastily acted to counter Leon's attack."Damn it!" Owen's expression darkened, knowing that Daniel was not capable of fending Leon off and that once Daniel was defeated, he would be next on Leon's list.Instantly, he stopped dodging and charged toward Leon at lightning speed to stall Leon and rescue Daniel."Good of you to join us!" Leon smirked. He already ant
"Who said that I'm killing you?" Leon sneered in contempt.He still remembered how he was captured by the Dragon Corps after killing Harold. Out of respect for the Dragon Corps, Leon, who did not have the habit of killing people, never intended to kill anyone, to begin with.Since Daniel and Owen only wanted to steal his possession out of greed, death did not seem to be a just punishment."Good!"Both Daniel and Owen sighed a breath of relief once they learned that Leon did not intend to kill, but before they had the time to process this information, what Leon said next sent chills down their spines."What you did shouldn't be punished by death, but that doesn't mean you can leave unpunished! I'm going to destroy your powers as the price you pay for your greed!" Leon said darkly."What?!" The two gasped.A martial artist's power was everything to him and if Leon destroyed their power, not only would they lose their positions as the leaders of the family, the control over their c
"Well!" Francis's heart wavered momentarily as he could barely contain the excitement when he heard what Daniel and Owen promised.As the leader of the Hunts, it was his lifelong goal to lead his family to the very top of the food chain in Seacove City, surpassing even the Geoffreys and the Durkans.A chance to have these two families submit to the Hunts was rare and it was extremely difficult for Francis not to be tempted. However, he only met with Leon a few times and was not particularly close to Leon, so he turned and shot Quinton a knowing look, hoping that Quinton could convince Leon into letting Daniel and Owen go.Quinton hesitated, before stepping forward. "Mister Wolf, you're a forgiving man. Since Elder Geoffrey and Elder Durkan admitted that they were wrong, please have mercy and spare them.""But-" Leon scowled.The Geoffreys and the Durkans were extremely ruthless and Leon did not think it would be appropriate for him to let them go unpunished. On the other hand, he
"Oh okay, then."Both Daniel and Owen were shocked.People were generally selfish. However, not only did Leon not take the opportunity to demand a greater compensation, he refused any type of compensation altogether.They were not the only ones who were taken by surprise; everyone else, including Francis, were all impressed by how Leon was not moved by profits."Alright. You may go," Leon said."Okay."Relieved, Daniel and Owen straightened their backs, realizing that they were completely drenched in sweat. "Mister Wolf, our grandsons offended you earlier. Please have mercy and spare them as well," They muttered gingerly.Though Leon already spared Daniel and Owen, Tim and William were the ones who started the conflict, so no one knew if Leon would be willing to let them go."Let them go? Impossible! These two attacked my woman and my friend. They cannot be forgiven!" Leon said coldly.Iris was always the most important person to him and the fact that Tim and William attacked
In the following days, Leon entered the recovery phase for taking the Dragon Pill and remained in his room to rest, while taking the time to study the Mirror of Sovereign.Upon going through all the records left by his ancestors, he soon concluded that the Mirror of Sovereign was a defensive tool. The user could inject their spiritual energy into it to guard their hearts against attack from someone of one level higher than the user; even in face of an attack from someone of a few levels higher, the damage would be minimized to a certain degree.Like the magical armor seen in movies, it would be a powerful tool and Leon was overwhelmed by excitement.The only drawback was that the Mirror of Sovereign was merely a defensive tool and held no offensive power; on top of that, it was only the size of a human palm, so it could only shield the heart from damage, leaving the other body parts unprotected.Still, Leon was overjoyed as nothing was more important than staying alive and the poss
They arrived at the living room and the others left, leaving Walter, Denzel, Theodore, Lilith, and Sean to speak."Grandpa, what on earth is going on? What happened to the Fields?" Lilith asked.When Denzel called her a few days ago, he only mentioned that the Fields were in big trouble and were in desperate need of the Lapwoods' help, but he did nothing in detail."Well," Walter proceeded to explain all that happened between the Fields and Leon."What? So you're saying that Leon Wolf, who's around Theodore’s age, has reached the Advanced Overlord State? How's that possible?!" Lilith was shaken.As the eldest daughter of Denzel, she knew the power structure of Springfield City extremely well and it was unheard of for someone Leon's age to reach the Overlord State; naturally, she was not the only one who was shocked. Sean, who was sitting next to her, was stunned when he learned about such a genius in a small city like Springfield City."Yes, that's right! Even if he's not in the
"Miss Morrison, I would like to thank you for saving my life," Iris said as she approached Renee's bed. She meant to thank Renee for having saved her so narrowly from death during their encounter with one of Brahma's clones, which was why she lingered in Renee's room even after everyone left. "Miss Young, if you would truly like to return the favor, there is something you can do for me," Renee said, biting her lip as though what she was about to say was an excruciatingly difficult decision to make."What is it?" Iris asked, although she felt like she already knew what was the answer. "I would like to join you in being Leon's companions," Renee said with an expectant look. She harbored feelings toward Leon for some time now but refrained from competing against Iris and Cynthia, knowing there was no way she could win. However, she had an epiphany after her narrow escape from death and realized that there was so much more to life than competing with other women over a man. Therefor
"Nothing is impossible! It's high time you accept your fate, you old git! Take this! The Phoenix Sky Fist!" Leon merely scoffed at him. The next moment, he directed one last attack at Wulfric in the form of his most powerful move—the Phoenix Sky Fist, a sage technique belonging to the Heavenly Class!A cloud of pulsating energy charged straight toward Wulfric, without any mercy toward his cries of horror!Its sole intent was to destroy him and put an end to this battle!"No—" Wulfric let out a bloodcurdling scream as he watched, defenseless, as the Phoenix Sky Fist soared toward him. His first instinct was to leap out of harm's way, but Leon was far too powerful for him and anticipated this beforehand. Not to mention the Phoenix Sky Fist was one of the most powerful moves belonging to the Heavenly Class, and there was no possible way he could escape from its wrath.Wulfric's limp body only left a few feet off the ground when the Phoenix Sky Fist crashed into him, rendering his body
"Haha! I've finally attained the Saint State! Now it's time for you to die, you old git!" A glimmer of malice flashed through Leon's eyes. When he fixated his gaze on Wulfric's face, it sent a shudder down Wulfric's entire body, for Leon's eyes were like two pits of deep, dark, sinister hatred. "How cocky of you to say that, you twat! So what if you attained the Saint State? You haven't even got time to harness your powers yet, so you're no match for me! Take this!" Wulfric scoffed, taking no notice of Leon's threats at all. Then, without another moment's hesitation, he sent a powerful surge of energy pummeling Leon's way, intending to destroy Leon while his defenses were low!"He's right. So what if he's attained the Saint State? He can't even control his powers properly," the rest of the Chanters all agreed, and felt rather relieved by this. The glimmer of hope that ignited briefly within Pierre, Zach, and the rest was immediately doused after hearing the Chanters' words. Wulf
"Hahaha! This ends here—once and for all!" Wulfric broke out into a manic cackle of laughter upon seeing Pierre's defeat. The defeat of Pierre, Zach, and his two lackeys had no doubt instilled a newfound triumph in him, for the four of them combined were his greatest opponents thus far, and now that he rendered them powerless, there was no longer anyone in his way!Not even Leon, Percival, Alastair, or the rest of their comrades could defeat him! He and the Chanters would go on, unstopped, to dominate the world!One could only imagine his ecstasy at finally fulfilling his dream at long last!"All hail Master Chanter!""All hail Master Chanter!""All hail Master Chanter!" Aiken and the rest of the Chanters erupted into thunderous applause and cheers of sheer elation. "Oh no!""We can't possibly stand a chance!" Percival, Alastair, and the rest on the good side felt their hearts sink at the thought of their impending doom. Although they outnumbered the Chanters by a significant m
Gulp!Taking advantage of the moment, Leon decisively took out a Holy Spirit Pill and swallowed it. Initially, he intended to use an Essential Detox Pill to help Pierre, Zach, and the other two Semi-Saint State fighters counteract the poison. However, with Pierre injured by Wulfric and Zach along with the other two severely wounded and out of combat, even if he cured them, their side was still doomed to defeat.In this desperate situation, he could only take a gamble. He hoped that, with the breakthrough signs he felt in his martial arts bottleneck, the Holy Spirit Pill would help him break through the sage arts barrier or raise his power level to the Great Crossing Phase. This might be their only chance at victory."Mister Wolf, as long as there's life, there's hope. I'll try my best to hold off Wulfric. You must escape now and find a way to avenge us later."Pierre, enduring his injuries and the poison, stood up with a determined look on his face. He knew that their side was alre
"You're courting death!"Wulfric, enraged by Leon's fierce attack and the slaying of Central Boss, had no choice but to halt his assault on Pierre and the other three momentarily. He turned and unleashed a powerful palm strike, its overwhelming force aimed squarely at Leon's Phoenix Sky Fist.Boom!The collision between Leon's Phoenix Sky Fist and Wulfric's attack was explosive. In an instant, Wulfric's strike shattered Leon's Phoenix Sky Fist, and its residual force hurtled toward Leon."Not good!"Leon’s expression changed drastically as he rapidly tried to evade. However, with Wulfric's Saint State power level, evading was futile. No matter where he ran, he was unable to get out of the attack range. The residual force of Wulfric's true energy struck Leon, sending him flying and crashing heavily to the ground.Cough! Cough!As Leon hit the ground, a wave of intense pain surged through his chest, causing him to cough up two mouthfuls of blood. It was clear he suffered significa
Whoosh!Compared to Percival and Alastair's heavy hearts, Leon remained relatively calm. In the past, he killed Poisonwielder and specifically crafted a potent antidote, the Essential Detox Pill, to counteract Reaper's Breath.He happened to have a few dozen of these pills on him. Though Pierre and the others were poisoned by Reaper's Breath, as long as Leon could get the antidote to them in time, they still stood a chance to win.With this in mind, Leon did not waste any time. He stopped fighting with Central Boss, leaped up, and quickly rushed toward Pierre and the others to deliver the antidote."Leon, are you planning to run away? Well, do you think it's going to be that easy?" Central Boss misunderstood Leon's actions, thinking he intended to escape. Given how much he hated Leon, he was not going to let Leon get away so easily.Without a second thought, Central Boss dashed forward, resolutely blocking Leon once again. With Wulfric having reversed the situation and forcing Pie
"Pierre, you have pushed me to this! Since that's the case, don't blame me for what I'm going to do next! You all can go to hell!" Wulfric's expression turned grim when he saw the Chanter fighters in a dire and dangerous situation. He knew he had to end this battle quickly to avoid significant casualties among the Chanter descendants.Thus, he decided not to hold back. He waved his two hands, releasing two clouds of white mist that surged forward, engulfing Pierre, Zach, and the other two. The white mist transformed into a flurry of powder, like a shower of flowers, enveloping the four of them."What's this?""This is bad, it's poison!"Realizing the unusual nature of the white powder, Pierre and Zach were alarmed.Immediately, the four of them held their breath and swiftly retreated, trying to escape the range of the white mist and powder. Unfortunately, it was too late! The white powder and mist seeped everywhere, and being too close to Wulfric, they already inhaled a signific
"How dare a loser like you be so arrogant? I'll teach you to be humble!"Leon sneered contemptuously. Central Boss clashed with him twice before, each time ending with Central Boss being injured and fleeing. Thus, Leon did not take his attack seriously at all.Without hesitation, he pointed a finger and unleashed the Advanced Earth Class sage technique, Earthly Plunder. Sharp and fierce energy condensed at his fingertip, roaring as it met Central Boss's attack head-on!Bang!Leon's Earthly Plunder clashed solidly with Central Boss's Soul-Piercing Claw in a violent collision. However, unlike previous encounters, this time Leon's technique did not break through Central Boss's attack; instead, it was shattered by it!Not only that! The Dragon Pill he recently took did not fully manifest itself yet, so not only did Central Boss's Soul-Piercing Claw shatter Leon's Earthly Plunder but also sent him staggering back.Leon struggled to regain his footing, retreating three or four steps be
