"Why isn't it possible? Leon is a Platinum Dragon Guard now and I intend on making you two work for him! He will be your direct superior from now on!" Alfred explained.Since Leon was non-staff personnel, he would not be seen frequently at the base. Alfred had arranged for two men to work for Leon to assist Leon whenever Leon was in need, but mostly he wished to reach Leon through Oliver and Abraham whenever there was a mission for Leon."He is a Platinum Dragon Guard?""What the..."Oliver and Abraham were stunned.Abraham, who bumped into Leon earlier, thought that Leon was only a new Dragon Guard and mocked him for having no manners. Had Oliver not stopped him, he would have tried to fight Leon.To his bewilderment, Leon turned out to be a Platinum Dragon Guard, and to make things more awkward, Alfred had arranged for them to work under Leon. Needless to say, Abraham felt both uncomfortable and shocked."What's wrong with the two of you?" Alfred asked in confusion."Nothing.
"Very well. You asked for this! Somebody! Take me to see a Gold Dragon Guard! I'm going to make a complaint about Leon Wolf!" the Black Gorilla shouted arrogantly as he walked toward the door of the holding cell in the hope of catching the others' attention.Once a Gold Dragon Guard or Platinum Dragon Guard got involved, Leon would be punished for abusing his power to imprison the Black Gorilla.Baam! Baam!As though his call was answered, Oliver and Abraham opened the door and walked inside."What's going on?""Who is shouting?"Oliver and Abraham were both confused.They ran all the way to the National Security Department and ran into Captain Scots, who told them that Leon was in the holding cell, so they hurried over to meet Leon.As soon as they walked into the area, they heard the Black Gorilla yelling, and both of them were confused by the situation."This is perfect!" The Black Gorilla was pleased to see Oliver and Abraham.As one of the Southern Boss's subordinates, h
"You want to meet with a Platinum Dragon Guard? Sure! Mister Wolf here is a Platinum Dragon Guard! Make your complaint to him, then!" Abraham sneered and shot the Black Gorilla a look of contempt.The Black Gorilla was utterly stunned by his words. "What? Did you just say that Leon is a Platinum Dragon Guard?! How is that possible?!" The Black Gorilla gaped in disbelief.Outside the entrance to the National Security Department, he saw that Leon was only an ordinary Dragon Guard, and to his bewilderment, Leon had transformed into a Platinum Dragon Guard within a matter of minutes."We are both second-level Gold Dragon Guard, Abraham and Oliver. Greetings, Mister Wolf..."Abraham ignored the Black Gorilla and bowed alongside Oliver toward Leon."What the..." The Black Gorilla was shocked as he confirmed that Leon was a Platinum Dragon Guard.In his knowledge, the Platinum Dragon Guards were the highest level one could reach within the Dragon Corps in the southern region, and if Leo
"Mister Wolf, we can never repay what you've done for us... From now on, just let us know whatever you need and we will do our best to deliver..." Oliver and Abraham said earnestly.Not only had Loen avenged the deaths of their loved ones, but Leon had also become their direct superior, and they were both more than willing to head Leon's every command."You don't have to be so serious..." Leon shook his head with a smile when an idea popped up in his mind. "I do have something that I need your help with, though!"What is it?""Anything you want, Sir!"Oliver and Abraham both said."The Black Gorilla has committed countless crimes, but refuses to admit to any of them! Look into his past in the next few days and gather as much proof as you can! I want him to remain in prison for the rest of his life!" Leon commanded fiercely.He had meant to be merciful and tried to offer the Black Gorilla a chance to reflect on his faults, but he refused to do so, which enraged Leon.'If that's
"Mister Wolf, don't go... I was wrong. I will confess now. Please give me another chance..." The Black Gorilla caved as he watched Leon and the others leave the room. He crawled toward Leon and pleaded for another chance."It's not happening! I told you that it's too late! Save your confession for the prison you end up in!" Leon scoffed and shoved the Black Gorilla aside before striding toward the door.As Leon opened the door, the Black Gorilla knew that he would never see the sun again once Leon left, and at that very moment, a thought formed in his mind."Mister Wolf, wait... Charlie Martell is the person who asked me to attack you!" he shouted out the truth about his attack."What?!" Leon paused. "What did you just say, Black Gorilla? Did you say that Charlie Martell sent you to attack me?" Leon narrowed his eyes coldly and turned around."Yeah..." The Black Gorilla nodded and proceeded to explain everything in detail."Damn you, Charlie Martell! How dare you?!" Leon was furi
"Mister Wolf, I've told you everything that I know. Please give me a chance!" the Black Gorilla pleaded."Black Gorilla, seeing how sincere you seem to be, I will give you another chance! Behave and the Dragon Corps will let you out for a few years. Refuse to reflect on your mistakes and you will spend the rest of your life here!" Leon scoffed."Yes. Thank you...' Relieved, the Black Gorilla relaxed.Though Leon had not made any promises, it was enough to indicate that he was given another chance, and the Black Gorilla knew that he would be freed in a few years' time."Captain Scots, come inside," Leon called out.Captain Scots and a few other guards had been waiting outside the holding cell while Leon confronted the Black Gorilla. They strode in at Leon's command, and Leon simply handed the Black Gorilla over to Captain Scots. "Captain Scots, the Black Gorilla has admitted to his crimes. I will leave the rest to you.""Yes, Sir," Captain Scots said before taking the Black Gorill
Meanwhile, in the Southern Boss's mansion, the Southern Boss and Rodney were celebrating the trouble they had caused the Thompsons."Dad, this is great! Not only has Asmodeus wreaked havoc in the Thompsons Mansion, but he has also even captured Roanne Thompson! We have finally gotten revenge for all the troubles they caused us in the past!" Rodney said."That's right! As expected of one of the top eight criminals. Asmodeus doesn't disappoint!" The Southern Boss nodded with a satisfied smile."It's just a shame that Asmodeus didn't kill Yuri, or we would have even more to celebrate!" Rodney said.The Thompsons and the Spears had always been enemies, and Yuri had been superior in all possible aspects compared to Rodney, so Rodney had always seen Yuri as his rival and felt frustrated that Asmodeus did not eliminate Yuri."It's fine. Asmodeus told me that this is just the beginning! When he has the chance, he will surely get rid of Yuri Thompson for us!" The Southern Boss smirked.Yu
"What's going on?! Do the Thompsons have some powerful martial artists hidden who tracked Asmodeus down afterward? This shouldn't be happening!" The Southern Boss recovered from the shock, and his expression darkened.He had doubts that the Thompsons had other tricks up their sleeves but immediately cast the thought aside.Asmodeus was formidable, and it was impossible for the Thompsons to kill him without alerting the Southern Boss."Did the Dragon Corps mention who it was that killed Asmodeus?" the Southern Boss questioned darkly."They didn't say. The announcement only says that a martial artist in the Dragon Corps did it..." the guard said respectfully."A martial artist in the Dragon Corps?" The Southern Boss was shocked.Asmodeus's attack on the Thompsons had been abrupt, and he had not remained for long, so it was unlikely for the Dragon Corps to be alerted. Hence, the Southern Boss had his full attention on the Thompsons and did not worry about the Dragon Corps at all.R
"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
