Leon gave himself a hard slap on the face.

Even though he wanted to be more daring and not admit defeat to fate, he should at least pursue Iris the right way to win her affection.

Yet, he took advantage of Iris's drunk state. If he did anything that crossed the line, it would be disrespectful to Iris! It would also be a deep insult to Iris!

If Iris woke up, he might lose Iris forever!

That was something he could not accept!

"Iris, I'm sorry," Leon had a face full of regret as he tried to pull his hand away.

However, Iris tightly hugged his arm, refusing to let go.

"Leon, don't go…"

"I'm very happy today. Can't you stay with me for a bit longer?" Iris looked at Leon with her beautiful eyes.

She was quite lonely the past few years and was very happy that day. She was still immersed in the atmosphere of the celebration, not realizing that she was already home.

"F-fine then," Leon let out a wry smile. He could not bear to reject Iris and was forced to pull a chair as he sat nex

    Iris shook her head."Alright then, I'll leave for now."Leon just asked casually. After that, he turned around and fled.After leaving the villa, Leon arrived at the mountain top behind. Ever since he set up the Energy Convergence Circle, he only needed to train for two to three hours every day with its help.He would sleep every night and wake up at about four or five in the morning to train in the mountain. His sleep and training schedule perfectly lined up with each other!At the heart of the circle, Leon sat down cross-legged before he took out the clear pendant, activating the circle.He trained for about over an hour.The circle's spiritual energy started to get active as it condensed into a vortex, frantically shooting into Leon's body.After a long time, Leon's body jolted as he opened his eyes abruptly. There was a glint in his eyes."I've finally broken through!" Leon was elated as he smiled happily. After bitterly training for a few days, he finally broke throu

    "Something's wrong somewhere!!" Ashwin said coldly."We've all seen what happened. Everyone witnessed what happened at the celebratory banquet last night, so what's the problem?" Michael was very confused."What you see might not be the truth!""I'm starting to suspect if Ariel is purposely trying to pull something!" Ashwin said with narrowed eyes."What does this have to do with Ariel?" Michael was uncertain."Of course it does! Just think about it. Ariel is Leon's girlfriend. Isn't it normal for her to protect him?! Her words can't be trusted!" Ashwin said firmly."You mean that imperial green necklace is fake? Did Ariel make that story up?" Michael slowly understood what Ashwin meant."The necklace might not be fake!""With Master Summers's reputation, Ariel wouldn't dare joke around with her grandfather's name. I think that the necklace was probably crafted by Master Summers! However, we can't know for sure if the materials are the rare imperial green or some other cheap ma

    Ashwin's eyes had a sharp glint in them. After the celebratory banquet the night before, he could tell that Iris intended to train Leon.Furthermore, Leon managed to gain Iris's favor the night before. His future was incredibly bright!If Leon managed to grow more, then his position might be threatened. Leon might even end up replacing him!He would not let that happen!He needed to kill Leon off before Leon had the time to grow!He had to stop any future problems."Mister Mercer, I've already been trying to kick Leon out of the company, but he has Ariel helping him. He won't be easy to deal with. Do you have any good idea?" Michael almost lost his position himself after losing the bet the last time. He was wary of Leon and was forced to pin his hopes on Ashwin."I have an idea! Leon managed to obtain the cooperation of the Wick Group for the company. Miss Young regards him very highly and wants to put him responsible for the later parts of the cooperation. In the future, he w

    After a long time, Leon finally looked through the information and put down the document in his hand."Ariel, I've already looked through the information. Let's go have a look at the factory.""Yes, alright," Ariel nodded, and the two of them left the office together.When they were out of the office, they got the parking lots.Ariel opened the door of her BMW, and was about to get in the car when she looked back. She quickly noticed that Leon merely stood on the spot like a wooden puppet, not looking like he planned on getting in."Leon, what are you standing there for? Hurry up and get in," Ariel urged in confusion."It's fine, I'll go there on my motorcycle!" Leon pointed at his bike."It's not the peak hour right now. Driving will be convenient. Why do you want to use your bike?" Ariel was confused."What do you think? I just don't want to get left behind on the way again!" Leon glared at Ariel."You…" Ariel's face suddenly reddened as she recalled out she kicked Leon out

    Inside the factory office, Leon and Ariel met the factory manager Guido Boyd. He was a slightly chubby middle-aged man and dressed himself up in a business suit. Guido had a hand in the factory's day-to-day operations, overseeing many processes including production, shipment, and quality inspection. He was part of the company's top management, and might even be considered one of the big shots.However, Leon and Ariel were high-ranking individuals that the head office sent to inspect the factory, and they were also the people in charge of cooperating with the Wick Group. Ariel, in particular, was considered a powerful figure among the head office's top ranks, so Guido had to be extra careful around them."Miss Summers, Mister Wolf, let me show you two around the workshop," Guido offered respectfully."It's fine, Mister Boyd. Mister Wolf and I are here on an informal visit. We're just going to have a look at the situation here. You can proceed with your usual duties instead of takin

    Part of the Elegante Group's salary package was a performance bonus, and because the production capacity failed to reach the previous requirements, the performance bonus would be halved.It would mean that the salary of a low-level employee would be reduced by about 150 dollars monthly for no good reason, so it was natural for everyone to complain about it.Stanley's reasons for letting Ariel know were twofold. On one hand, he felt that the raw materials were not as good as before, and on the other hand, he also had his employees' best interests in mind."Problems, you say? Well, all procurement of raw materials and the production thereof are under the sole purview of Mister Mercer. You can report this matter to Mister Boyd or directly to Mister Mercer. I'm sorry I can't be of more help," Ariel frowned.Stanley smiled wryly. "I'll be frank with you, Miss Summers. I've already reported this to Mister Boyd, but he's never given me a direct answer. Mister Mercer, on the other hand, is

    Ariel might have no right to interfere with matters involving Ashwin, but Leon—being the person in charge of cooperating with the Wick Group—had the right to intervene in any issue relating to the products being supplied. None of his actions could be construed as exceeding his authority."What? I..." Stanley was dumbfounded. He never dreamed that a small-time secretary like Leon would wield such great authority, to the extent that a higher-ranked figure like Ariel was working under him!It was incredible, and it was also the first time he heard of such an amazing secretary!"Don't worry, Mister Wallace. I'll relay your message to Miss Young word-for-word later, and I'll try my best to help everyone get the benefits they deserve," Leon pledged sincerely."Thank you, Mister Wolf. Thank you so much..." Stanley was overjoyed. He grabbed Leon's hand excitedly, shook the latter's hand with a bow, and was grateful."You're too kind. Mister Wallace. This is how it ought to be..." Leon sai

    "Don't worry. I'm quite confident about this! You said it yourself that Miss Young has given me a lot of authority over this issue, and I have the final say when it comes to the Wick Group's products! Since she has placed her trust in me, it falls upon me to meet her expectations!" Leon smiled excitedly.Although the company's research and development department was filled with professionals, they were pampered employees who merely sit in the office all day! It was hopeless to count on them to have the necessary knowledge for things that it mattered, and counting on the experienced Stanley would be much better!More importantly, Leon had full confidence in his medical skills, and the only thing he lacked at the moment was an understanding of the various aspects of the product.Stanley was just the right perfect to complement him in areas in which he did not have the requisite knowledge!"You're reading too much into Iris's statement! I give up!" Ariel gritted her teeth with anger.

    "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
