"However, if you have the guts to try and do anything again, I guarantee you that I'll cripple you!" Walter looked at Duncan coldly. There was even a murderous glint in his eyes!His expression looked like a poisonous snake that was about to strike. Duncan could not help but shiver as a child went through his heart.He knew that he was facing someone from the underworld. They could do anything, so he was not just scaring him."Good, very good. I'll remember that slap. Just wait and see!" Duncan was terrified. After those harsh words, he hurriedly scrambled to the side, not daring to face the other party head-on.Everything happened far too quickly. Serena, Lily, and the others felt like a bucket of cold water was just poured over them. They quickly sank into depression. The sliver of hope they had earlier was extinguished."Mister Leonard, don't go. You can't just leave my aunt and my cousins like that…" Rizzy grabbed Duncan's arm anxiously."I know, I won't just leave them…" Dun
"Leon, you piece of trash! These people are all here for you, but you're hiding behind like a coward. Are you even a man?!" Rizzy angrily berated Leon. She felt like Leon dragged her aunt's family into this, and hated Leon deeply."I wasn't being a coward! I wanted to do something earlier, but someone took the chance before I could. What can I do?" Leon smiled wryly, finally stepping forward.He thought that Duncan would be able to solve the matter without any bloodshed, and he did not plan on stealing Duncan's thunder.Yet, he never expected that Duncan was just all for show. He looked great, but was not useful at all!After things went to this stage, he was even called a coward by Rizzy.He felt like he was being slandered!After that, Leon tossed his frustrations aside. He looked right at Bowden and said coldly, "Bowden, I was the one who caused everything this time. Don't trouble Lily and her family. Just come at me if you have any problems!"Serena was shocked when she hear
Lily was still a little worried.After all, most of the security guards in the company were regular people. Compared to those fierce-looking thugs, they were not on the same level.When Leon faced the few bodyguards then, he was already in a precarious situation. He even suffered some injuries. It did not seem realistic that he would be able to beat Walter's men!"There are no buts!""Don't worry, these weak minnows won't be able to do anything to me!" Leon smiled proudly."Brat, who're you calling a minnow?""Do you want to die?!" Walter's men were deeply angered as they looked at Leon coldly."So what if I called you minnows?! You pieces of trash aren't even minnows in my eyes!" Leon looked at those men in disdain. "You do want to die!" Walter was furious as he raised his hand and sent a slap to Leon's face.Smack!A clear slap was heard. Leon intercepted the slap before sending one of his own on Walter.Walter spun around on the spot. With a pained shout, two teeth were
Never in their dreams did they expect that Leon would be able to beat eight or nine fierce thugs alone. He was even completely unharmed!It was unbelievable!Bowden was especially stunned. He rubbed his eyes in disbelief.He knew that Leon was Lily's colleague at work. He never expected a regular office worker like Leon to be able to fight so well!It deeply shook him!Suddenly, the whole place was quiet. It was so quiet that even a pin drop could be heard."H-how strong!" Lily was the first to react. Her beautiful eyes glinted.Leon looked so handsome and manly showing off earlier. Lily started to look at Leon with a bit of reverence."Yeah, Leon's amazing!" Both Serena and Jared were incredibly excited to see Leon's skills."H-how is this possible?" Rizzy covered her mouth in shock. She could not believe it.Leon was the trash of the Manson Company before this. He would never retaliate no matter how he was beaten or scolded.At that moment, Leon seemed like a completely di
Walter was frantic in anger, and he had a vicious look on his face."Oh?" "Then I'll give you half an hour. Go ahead and call whoever you want. Let's see how capable you really are!" Leon sneered.They were in a lawful society. Even though he beat up Walter and his men, there was no way he could actually do anything to them. At the most, he could just teach them a lesson.However, Walter seemed to refuse to learn his lesson. If Walter remembered this grudge and tried to take revenge in the future, the grudge might spill over to Lily's family.That would be disastrous!He was incredibly skilled, so he was not afraid of any revenge from Walter, but Lily's family were all just commoners. There was no way they would be able to stand up against Walter's revenge.The best way to handle it was to have Walter summon up everything he could at that moment. After that, Leon would have completely defeated Walter until Walter was filled with fear and hopelessness!That was the only way to
"Do you think you're unbeatable just because you know martial arts?! What a joke!" Rizzy berated him.Even though she just saw that Leon was skilled, it did not mean anything. If Walter called for even more and even stronger helpers, Leon would not be able to deal with the sheer numbers.Furthermore, so what if Leon would actually be able to deal with it.Society already lost any need for material arts. Money was the real power!Someone without any power or money like Leon would just end up in jail for half his life if he accidentally crippled anyone in a fight!In the end, she felt like Leon's thoughts were too naive!"That…"Lily's family looked like they just had cold water poured all over them.They knew that Rizzy was right. Leon was powerless, it would not be easy to deal with the matter.If Leon did not manage to deal with it well, he would be in danger himself. How could he help their family?"Don't worry, I have my ways…" Leon smiled.Even though he was a powerless
"Dad, you're finally here!" Duncan ran over happily.Looking at the slightly red bruise on Duncan's face, it looked like he was slapped. Anthony was furious, "Duncan, who was the one who dared to slap you?! How dare they!""It was him!" Duncan pointed at Walter hatefully.After a moment of rest, Walter's men finally climbed up with much difficulty.They never expected that they would bump into Anthony's men."Go teach them a lesson!" Anthony shouted. With a wave, his men started to charge at Walter and the others."Anthony, I'm Walter!" "I'm warning you, my boss is…" Walter was taken aback. Before he could even shout out the name of his boss, a young man sent a baseball bat right at his head."Who the heck is Walter? I've never heard of him before!""Beat them all up!" Walter scoffed in disdain.Walter was not a big figure in the underworld, and he was not that famous. He heard of Anthony before, but Anthony did not know of him at all!How could Anthony pay any attention to
"Aunt Serena, let's go outside to look too," Rizzy smiled and said.Serena hesitated for a moment before she nodded. Then, all of them walked outside, including Leon and Lily.When they were outside, Anthony ordered his men to throw Walter's men on the ground.At that moment, they suddenly heard the honks of a row of cars. Over a dozen black Volkswagen's started to drive over. They quickly stopped at the neighborhood, blocking the entrance. When the doors opened, three or four dozen young and fierce-looking men in black suits walked out from the cars.Seeing that, Anthony, Serena, and the others were stunned."This is great! Our men are here!" Walter was ecstatic. His reinforcements were there!"Who are these people?!" Anthony's expression sank. He had a look of doubt on his face."Dad, they might be Walter's reinforcements!" Duncan said in a hurry."Reinforcements? Let's see who that person is. Let's see how capable he is!" Anthony sneered. He felt like his influence 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
