"Damian, how are your legs cured suddenly?"The elders were stunned."Leon cured them," Damian said."What?""Him?!"Rick and Eugene paled.They just challenged Patrick's authority in public and were about to gain the support of others, yet Leon cured Damian and their scheme to take over power was utterly ruined.Furious at how helpless they were in the current situation, the two glared daggers at Leon."Elders, do you still wish to select another heir to inherit the family business?" Damian asked calmly."No. Of course, not!""If your legs are better now, we're definitely on your side."...The elders smiled sheepishly as they declared their support for Damian."Eugene, what else do you have to say for yourself?" Damian turned to study Eugene with a cold smirk.He put up with Eugene due to his paralysis no matter how hard Eugene tried to replace him; however, his legs were cured and he managed to destroy Eugene's plot in front of everyone, so he finally been able to aven
"Rick, you are my brother, so I'll spare you and Eugene this time! This is your final warning. If this happens again, there'll be no mercy for you!" Patrick said coldly."Thank you, Patrick. It won't happen again," Relieved, Rick and Eugene stood, feeling as though they narrowly escaped death."Also, you have three days! Within that time, you will hand one of the pharmaceutical firms over to Leon!" Patrick continued sternly."Yes!" Eugene did not dare to disobey Patrick's order any longer.All the guests around them observed the situation.They came for Patrick's birthday, only to find themselves watching an internal conflict of the Scammells unfold and they were all amused by it."Alright. Let's all take your seats!" Patrick announced.The guests recovered from the initial shock and the hall was filled with laughter once again once they started to take their seats....Time flew by and the party soon reached its end.The guests began to leave and Patrick ordered a few of his
"By the way, Elder Scammells. I'll need to talk to you about establishing a long-term agreement between Cynthion Group and the Scammells," Leon cut to the chase.Since the Scammells agreed to sell one of their pharmaceutical firms to him, he would be able to establish a branch for Cynthion Group in the Southern region and he would have to start producing alchemical pills as soon as possible.Since alchemical pills production required a large supply of herbs and raw materials, the Shears would not be able to fulfill the demand. Hence, Leon planned to reach an agreement with the Scammells as well.With both the Shears and the Scammells as his supplier, Cynthion Group would have all the materials it needed for future development."Go on. What do you need?" Patrick asked."I need Panaxes that have grown for around two to three hundred years, along with a few that have grown for over five hundred years, along with a long list of other herbs as well. The more the better," Leon answered.
"Leon, it's no wonder that you were confident about bringing us an annual profit of 130 million or above! So you were serious about that!" Damian muttered in shock.Leon promised to bring in revenue three to four folds during the party and Damian assumed that he was only saying so to Stop Eugene.However, after hearing about Leon's skills in alchemy and how big his demand for rare herbs was, Damian finally understood that Leon would be able to fulfill his promise easily."Of course! I'm a man of my word!" Leon smiled."Damian, you've been responsible for the family business over the years! Discuss the details with Leon and whatever he needs, we will try our best to fulfill his demand," Patrick said hastily.After learning the potential of the Energy Nurturing Pills, he immediately realized that Leon was a cash cow and as long as the Scammells continued to work with Leon, their family business might be brought to a much higher level of accomplishment."Oh, okay," Damian nodded, be
"No! Leon's about to be a relative of the first bloodline. We can't kill him! If Damian and the others find out, we won't gain anything from it!" Rick shook his head and rejected Nigel's suggestion."What, then? Dad, that kid destroyed our plan and took one of the pharmaceutical firms from us. That’s too much! Are we supposed to just put up with it?" Eugene questioned in frustration."Don't get ahead of yourself, Eugene! Leon has indeed destroyed our plan and neither can I put up with that! We might not be able to kill him, but we can teach him a lesson!" Rick glanced at Nigel and sneered, "Nigel, once Leon takes over the pharmaceutical firm, find some kind of excuse for fighting him! It doesn't matter if you break his limbs, but be sure that you don't kill him, or we'll all be in trouble," Rick said.Since he and Eugene were Leon's senior, it would be unreasonable for them to attack a junior. However, Nigel belonged to the same generation as Leon. Even if Nigel found himself in a c
Meanwhile, in the Cynthion Group branch.Cynthia had a difficult time in the past few days.As they just took over the company, there were countless adjustments to be made internally and she was running herself thin. Luckily for her, Ruth was rather talented in managing a business as well.With Ruth's help, her workload lessened to the point that she could barely manage.One morning, Cynthia and Ruth were dealing with paperwork in the president's office, when they were alarmed by the noises outside."What's going on?" Cynthia set the document in her hands down in confusion."Cynthia, let's go out and have a look," Ruth said, before walking out of the office alongside Cynthia.Outside the office, Nigel stormed in with two guards and shouted smugly, "Where are you, Leon Wolf? Get out!"His voice was laced with his true energy and echoed in the office distinctively.Everyone, including Cynthia, Ruth, and the other managers, was alerted by it.The current branch of Cynthion Group
"Mister Scammells, Loen is the chairman of Cynthion Group! Have some respect!" Cynthia's expression darkened at Nigel's mocking tone.He thought that since Nigel was Iris's relative, he might be looking for Leon for something important. However, judging from his hostile attitude, she realized that Nigel might be Leon's enemy."Chairman?! He tricked us into giving him the company. I'll make him pay! Get him to come out right now, or suffer the consequence!" Nigel sneered."Why you!"Both Cynthia and Ruth were enraged.However, neither of them knew what happened between Nigel and Leon; on top of that, Nigel was Iris's relative and the two did not know how to handle the internal affair of Iris's family."Leon isn't in the office! If you're looking for him, come by again in a few days!" Cynthia said coldly with a dark expression."What? He isn't here? Where is he, then?" Nigel froze.He came all the way to fight Leon and was surprised to learn that Leon was not in the office."No
"You wouldn't dare!"Cynthia and Ruth paled slightly and backed away warily."You'll find out if I dare to or not soon enough!" Nigel scoffed and ordered his guards, "Capture them and take them with us!""Yes!"The two guards closed in on Cynthia and Ruth from two different directions."For two morons who are only in the Initial Supreme State, you sure are brave to challenge me! Know your places!" Ruth smirked when she detected the guards' strength and launched a powerful attack at the guard on her left."The Advanced Supreme State?!" The guard gasped and was sent flying before he had the time to react. Suffering from severe internal injuries, he spewed a mouthful of blood as soon as he landed.At the same time, Ruth made a swift turn and leaped toward the guard on the right.The guard on the right was also in the Initial Supreme State and could not rival Ruth in terms of power.Within the blink of an eye, he was defeated like his companion did before Cynthia had the chance to
