"Ugh, Mister Seth, r- run! That golden cuff in his hand might be an almighty weapon," The Fourth Elder muttered weakly when he saw the confused look on Seth's face.He was an experienced martial artist who saw his fair share of wonders in the world and managed to conclude that the cuff Leon possessed was an Almighty weapon after the earlier exchange, or Leon would have never been able to defeat them all with a single blow.Naturally, the Cuff of Doom was tainted with gold, so there was no way for the Fourth Elder to tell that it was the infamous Cuff of Doom."What? He- He has even more treasures?!" Seth was utterly stunned.Treasures were extremely rare and it would be challenging enough for powerful families to obtain a single piece of treasure. Not only did Leon possess a defensive tool with power in the Peak Emperor State, but he also owned yet another weapon with power in the Almighty State.Seth was shaken to the core, but knew that there was no time left for him as he was t
"Snap!"Seth's legs broke following the crisp sounds of bones snapping.He wailed in agony and saw stars as he was about to lose consciousness."Leon, you little bast*rd! Just wait! Once I have you at my mercy, I'm going to skin you alive and make you die screaming!" Seth cursed as his face twisted in pain."You talk a great deal! But I love teaching scums like you a lesson!" Leon narrowed his eyes and raised his arm."Wh- What are you doing?" An ominous feeling overwhelmed Seth."It's simple. I'm going to destroy your power once and for all. Let's see how you're going to hurt others from now on!" Leon said fiercelyThough he already decided to spare Seth's life for the time being, Seth must be punished for plotting with Joel against Leon repeatedly and kidnapping Iris.After all that he did, Leon had no intention of letting Seth go unpunished.Ancient lineages of martial artists like the Golans valued power above all and if Leon destroyed his power, he would be abandoned by h
"Kid, you have one chance to let Seth go right now, or you shall pay for it!" Eliam glared at Leon maliciously.He intended on killing Leon for being the Hiltons' enemy and for barging into the Golans Mansion to injure members of his family, and was not going to let Leon go even if Leon released Seth; however, he could at least allow Leon a quick death."Am I supposed to just do as you say? Who do you think you are, old twat?" Leon scoffed.He was in a hurry to save Snow, so he might have considered letting Seth go if Eliam was understanding enough to apologize for what Seth did.However, Eliam was just as unreasonable and arrogant as Seth was, so Leon saw no reason to show him any respect."Get over yourself, brat! I'm going to skin you alive if you don't let Seth go right now!" Eliam roared, desperately wishing that he could kill Leon right there and then. However, Seth was still being held hostage, so he dared not to move and could only suppress his anger for the time being."
"Take him down! If anything happens to Seth, I want that brat and the woman next to him to die!" Eliam commanded coldly.As a seasoned martial artist and the leader of his family, he was through enough to know that Leon would not kill Seth as Seth was his only leverage at the moment."I guess I can't run from this fight, after all!" Leon's expression darkened and knew that he would have to fight.He rolled his wrist and the Cuff of Doom appeared in his hand once again.He did not know the extent of Eliam's power, but through his earlier duels with the Fourth and Fifth Elder, he could guess that Eliam was likely in the Peak Emperor State as well, and all the other Golans would be in levels below that.There was one strike in the Intermediate Almighty State left in the Cuff of Doom and it would be more than sufficient to fight off Eliam and the others.However, it did not change the fact that Leon was outnumbered and a single attack might not take down every single one of the Golan
"As expected!" Eliam's and the others' hearts sank when they confirmed that Roanne indeed come to Leon's aid.Leon had no status in the southern region and the Golans had no concern about hurting him, but the circumstances with Roanne were different.The Thompsons were the head of all families in the southern region and as their eldest daughter, Roanne had extremely high standing in the community the Golans were instantly placed at a crossroads when Roanne interfered."Miss Thompson, let's cut to the chase here! Leon broke into our house and injured members of my family. On top of that, he destroyed my grandson's power! I've to make him pay for it! This is between the Golans and him, and the Thompsons have nothing to do with this! I'd like for you to stay out of it, or you might risk tainting your family name!" Eliam said.He knew that the Thompsons valued their reputation and wanted to use it as a bargaining chip against Roanne."I'm not staying out of this! Seth was the one who
Leon was prepared for the ambush and immediately tossed Seth into the air at the other Golans."Watch out! We mustn't hurt Mister Seth by accident!"One of the martial artists shouted and the others immediately ceased their attack to catch Seth.Instantly, there was an opening to their line of defense and Leon took the opportunity to run outside with Iris in his arms. "Mister Thompson, please stall them for me! I will take off now!"He originally planned on using the remaining strike in the Cuff of Doom against the Golans, but was unsure if it was sufficient to defeat such a large group.Thankfully, Roanne and John arrived in time and there was no need for Leon to waste the power of the Cuff of Doom.His priority at the moment was to rescue Snow and had no time to waste on the Golans."Where do you think you're going? Prepare to die!" Eliam sneered as he stood back to prevent Leon from running.As soon as Leon darted out of the crowd that surrounded him, Eliam did not hesitate
After leaving the Golans Mansion, Leon and Iris arrived where Leon parked his car and drove off to save Snow."Leon, it's already been some time since Snow was captured! By the time we get there, it might be too late! You should call Mister Hughes to get his help. Maybe he can get Snow out!" Iris said worriedly."Yeah! You're right. I almost forgot!" Realization dawned on Leon.They were currently near the Golans Mansion, which was a distance from the Hughes Mansion.By the time they arrived, Snow might have already suffered a horrible fate.Darius was the eldest son of Hughes and Gordon's brother-in-law. If Darius was willing to offer help, they might be able to save Snow from danger much sooner.Leon immediately took out his phone to call Darius and briefly explain the situation.Darius was furious after learning what happened.The cosmetic products of Elegante Group were swapped a few days ago and he had a hunch that Gordon was involved in it. Hence, he made a point of givin
"I know! Don't worry. Leon might be able to run this time, but he can't run forever. This isn't the end of it. The Golans aren't done with him yet! He has the support of the Thompsons, though, so it's not going to be easy to get rid of him! We might need the Hiltons' help on this!" Eliam said with a malicious look in his eyes.Not only did Leon barge into the Golans Mansion, but he also injured numerous members of the family and destroyed Seth's power.Even if Leon managed to escape, Eliam had no intention of stopping."Let's go to the Hiltons Mansion now, then! Joel was the one who told me to go after Leon. Now that Leon destroyed my power, the Hiltons won't stand idly by!" Seth gritted out."Very good! As long as the Hiltons are willing to get involved, Leon's fate will be decided!" Eliam said.Though Leon was close with the Thompsons, he was not a member of the family and they could not protect Leon for his entire life.With the Hiltons' help to hinder the Thompsons, the Golan
