"Miss Young, let's just cut to the chase! I invited you here for two things! I want the secret recipe for the purified water and the recipes for the alchemical pills sold by Cynthion Group! If you cooperate and hand me the recipes, I'll set you free unscathed!" Seth said as he took a seat by a table inside the room."You want the confidential recipes of Elegante Group and Cynthion Group? Dream on!" Iris scoffed as she realized Seth's true intention."Miss Young, you ought to know what's best for you! I'm warning you! Hand the recipes over and save yourself some suffering, or I don't show any mercy!" Seth narrowed his eyes and threatened."It's not happening! I don'knowof those recipes, but even if I do, I'll never tell you anything! Just give up!" Iris snorted with a contemptuous expression.She was telling the truth.The spiritual dew of Elegante Group and the alchemical pills sold by Cynthion Group were all produced by Leon, so there were never any recipes and it would be imposs
"Y- You wouldn’t dare!" Iris paled and roared, "Seth, I'm warning you! If you dare to lay your hands on me, Leon will skin you alive!""Leon? Don't even bring that little bast*rd up! He injured me back in the Black Market and broke my leg the last time I was in Elegante Group. He is my enemy and if there's a chance, I'll make sure he dies screaming!" Seth said ferociously.Suddenly, he seemed to have thought of something and an excited look appeared on his face. "Iris, if I'm not mistaken, Leon's your boyfriend, right?""So what if I am? How's that your business?" Iris said warily and did not see the need in denying the fact that Leon was her boyfriend."Wonderful! Leon has the Thompsons backing him up, so there's nothing much I can do with him at the moment, but I can toy with his woman and humiliate him! When he finds out about this, he is going to wish that he's dead!" Seth burst out laughing.After all that happened between Seth and Leon, Seth developed a deep resentment towar
"Baam!"Seth was instantly sent flying by Iris's Potential Energy Force and slammed onto the ground.Following the piercing pain he felt in his chest, he spewed a few mouthfuls of blood and slummed on the ground, completely unable to move.Since he managed to escape a part of the attack and protected his chest with his power in time, he narrowly survived.Just then, a key fell from his body and landed in front of Iris's eyes as he fell."Great!" Iris's eyes lit up when she noticed that it was the car key to Seth's car and realized that she had a chance of escaping.Without hesitation, she picked up the key and opened the door, before running outside."Somebody! Capture that b*tch! Don't let her get away!" Seth widened his eyes and roared in rage.He instantly realized that Iris was going to run and wanted to get up to stop her, but was far too severely injured to move and could only watch as Iris run out of the room.As he tried to move, he deepened his injuries and spew anoth
"You won't get away!"...The two Golans' guards scoffed.They were both in the Emperor State and were far superior in terms of speed when compared to Iris.As soon as Iris opened the car door, one of the guards reached out and grabbed Iris by the shoulder, effectively restraining her."It's over!" Seeing how her plan to escape failed, Iris's expression darkened as she was retrained once again.She heard footsteps approaching and Seth was hurrying outside, all the while suppressing the pain of his injury.He sighed a breath of relief when he saw that Iris was captured by the guards."Iris Young, you b*tch! How dare you attack me?! You must have a death wish!" Seth was livid and strode over viciously."W- What do you want?" Fear overwhelmed Iris when she sensed Seth's anger.She knew that she provoked Seth by injuring him and since she was once again captured, she was bound to suffer for her actions."B*tch, I'm going to destroy you!" Enraged, Seth raised his arm to slap Iris
"Let her go!" A chilling roar echoed in the air.Leon swiftly leaped into the air and descended before Seth and the others; his presence intimidating and malicious."Leon! Why are you here?" Seth was stunned by Leon's sudden appearance.He made sure not to leave any trace behind when he captured Iris, so it caught him by surprise that Leon managed to find him so soon.It was so far beyond his understanding that he struggled to comprehend how Leon managed such a thing."Leon, you're finally here. I'm so glad!" Iris said. The despair that overwhelmed her earlier vanished instantly.However, she soon remembered that they were at the heart of the Golans' territory with countless martial artists in the Emperor State, so Leon might be outnumbered; realization dawned on her and she started to worry for Loen's safety."Scram!" Leon ignored Seth and launched a powerful attack at the guard who captured Iris to rescue Iris."How dare a puny man in the Overlord State be so arrogant before
"How powerful!" The guard who captured Iris gaped.Like his companion, he could tell that Leon was in the Peak Overlord State at best, yet Leon somehow managed to defeat the other guard easily.After listening to what Seth's said, the remaining guard realized that Leon only managed to win with the help of the tool."It's your turn, now!" Seeing how Iris was captured, Leon dared not to wait another moment and darted toward the other guard at the speed of lightning."Kid, don't you move! Stop, or I'll destroy this woman!" The guard already knew Leon had a powerful defensive tool and instantly switched strategy to hold Iris hostage instead."Damn it!" Leon's expression darkened as he withdrew his spiritual energy.Refusing to stand idly by, Leon turned and grabbed Seth, before flinging him toward the guard like a weapon.He took a step forward and lunged himself at Seth once again, trying to use him as bait to prevent the other guards from attacking Iris.If the guard refused to g
"Baam!"Both the guard and Seth were sent flying and the guard instantly spewed blood from his mouth but did not suffer any extreme injuries as he managed to dodge most of the attack; Seth, on the other hand, was unharmed as well because the guard shielded him from Leon."Damn it!" The two lay sprawled across the ground for a moment, before fumbling to get up with dark expressions on their faces.Realization dawned on the guard that he fell into Leon's trap, but it was too late and he was lucky to have rescued Seth."Consider yourselves lucky!" Leon scoffed.Worried about Iris, Leon did not go after them and hurried over to Iris instead. "Iris, are you okay?"Iris seemed unscathed, but he was still worried and insisted on checking with her."I'm okay," She nodded."Good!" Seeing how she was unharmed, Leon sighed a breath of relief."Leon, we're in their territory, just let's leave as soon as possible!" Iris said."There's no hurry! Seth dared to kidnap you and I have to aveng
"Leon, it's been a while since Snow was apprehended. You need to get to her before it's too late," Iris expressed concern."Yeah. I know. Let's get started!" Leon charged outside, wrapping his arm around Iris.He knew Iris was correct, and this was not the time for him to act rashly.Though he had plenty of tricks and had nothing to fear from the Golans, the Golans were a far more powerful family than the Scammells and Libertons. If he insisted on hurting Seth, the Golans would have time to gather and surround him, making Leon and Iris' escape more difficult.Snow would still be in danger if this happened.Rescuing Snow was their top priority at the time, so Leon decided that he could always make Seth pay for what he did when the opportunity arose in the future."You won't get away!" When Seth saw Leon fleeing with Iris in his arms, his eyes lit up and he sneered.Though he had no idea how Leon found him, he knew that breaking into a house to injure someone was a serious offense
