"Iris, what doesn't kill you makes you wiser. It's no longer safe for you to stay alone outside. Come back and stay with us!" Gilbert said with worry. He could not help but glance at Leon as well.

He wanted his daughter to move back in with them for two reasons. One was out of concern for her, while the other was to separate his daughter and Leon.

Based on what he saw so far, Leon was probably after his daughter. That was why Leon was daring enough to try his luck at saving Elder Young. In the end, Leon was lucky enough to save him.

Leon was just a commoner with nothing exceptional about him. Leon was not worthy of Iris at all!

"Impossible! I refuse to move back here! I'm staying in an area with a lot of high-end villas. There are dedicated security guards on guard at all times. Grandfather's already arranged for six new bodyguards for me as well. With them protecting me in the future, my safety should be assured!" Iris shook her head and refused.

She was on the way back home when

    After dinner, Leon and Iris left the Young household together. They headed to her villa at Dragonbay.At that moment, the housekeeper already tidied up a room for Leon to stay in.Lying on the bed, Leon finally had some peace. He planned on properly looking at what he inherited from the ancestor of the Wolfs.Shutting his eyes, waves of memories that he inherited flowed into his mind.Among them were various ancient and secret techniques.There were medical books, secret manuals, and more.What? There was also a method for dual practicing? Leon decided to figure out what practitioners were. Martial artists pursued martial arts. They practiced inner and physical strength.Sage art practitioners practiced the sage arts. They focused on the spiritual energies of the world.Comparatively, the sage arts were even deeper and harder to master.However, after thousands of years, the sage arts were long lost. Even martial artists were incredibly rare.It seemed like sage arts were

    Iris was stunned, "You don't have a driver's license? That does make things a little inconvenient."Iris fell silent for a bit before she suddenly thought of something, "Then can you ride bikes?""I know how to ride bikes. I have a license for them too," Leon nodded. He was treated as less than a dog with the Mansons, there was no way he could have been allowed to drive a car.However, the Mansons regularly needed him to run their errands. For convenience's sake, they got him a shabby second-hand motorcycle."That's great. I have a motorcycle here that my aunt gave me for my birthday. I don't use it anyway, why don't I give it to you for you to go to work with," Iris pulled Leon over to a corner. There was a vibrant pink motorcycle there."Don't look down on this motorcycle, it's worth at least hundreds of thousands…""What? It's that expensive?" Leon was so shocked that his jaw almost dropped to the ground."That's right. I remember my aunt telling me that this is a limited edi

    Right after that, a beauty with long legs and a stunning figure walked out of the car."I'm sorry, I'm so sorry…" Leon hurriedly apologized.Leon was always a tolerant person who disliked any conflict. Even if the other party was at fault, he still apologized to start with."Do you know how to drive? Don't you see what's happening around you?!" The beauty coldly snorted unhappily.Leon frowned. This should have been a small matter, but the other person's attitude made him feel very uncomfortable, "Miss, you were the one who didn't look behind you before opening your door. Surely I'm not to blame? Furthermore, I already apologized to you. You should be more reasonable!""You think I'm unreasonable?" The beauty was furious. She coldly looked at Leon's bike before she said in disdain, "It's one thing that you're riding a motorcycle, it's even pink! You refuse to be a proper man and insist on being a sissy. How disgusting!""Why do you care what the color of my bike is?! D-don't be s

    "I'm fine. Thankfully, Leon was there to save me…" Iris shook her head before telling Ariel everything.Ariel was Iris's best friend from university.Iris did not have many friends, and Ariel was the only one she considered a good friend.Of course, the flirting was omitted. There was no way she would tell anyone about that."You said he was a man you didn't know, but he still took a stab for you. To protect you, he even decided to die with the thugs?! Now that's a real man! I guess you must feel very safe beside him?" Ariel's eyes glinted. She loved those masculine men on TV because she always lacked a sense of safety ever since she was young.It was a pity that all of that was only on TV. At the very least, she never met anyone like that in real life.Yet, a prime example just appeared in front of her.From what Iris said, she could even feel how safe it would have felt to be protected in such a dangerous situation. It was something she always lacked."Definitely! Society is

    "I think he looks okay…" Iris' beautiful face reddened slightly.What she said to Ariel earlier was supposed to just be between best friends. Yet, Ariel spilled everything right in front of Leon.Suddenly, her face heated up. She did not know how she was supposed to face Leon anymore.Ariel was worse. She even felt like she was about to spit out some blood. She held so much hope for that man. She even started to worship that perfect man from her fantasies!Yet, she never would have expected that the heroic man was the sissy that she just met earlier!The impact she suffered was immense! She felt like she was completely fooled by Iris!Iris took a deep breath and regained her composure, "Leon, I've been needing an administrative secretary. I want you to be my secretary. What do you think?"If you don't like it, I can give you a different position!""I'm happy with it, of course, I am," Leon was incredibly happy as he nodded frantically.Iris arranged for a much better job tha

    In the office, Joseph Conrad, a plump, bald man about fifty years of age sat in front of the desk.He faced a young girl who looked incredibly nervous.The girl was about twenty-one or twenty-two years of age. She had delicate facial features and looked very meek. She wore large, black-rimmed glasses that hid her beautiful looks.She was quite petite and dressed plainly, but it did little to hide her natural beauty. The girl was called Lily Cameron. She was one of the three secretaries of the president. her rank was the same as Leon's. She was the secretary of daily affairs, while Leon was the administrative secretary.Other than that, the president's secretaries had two direct superiors. The first was the president, while the second was the head of the president's office."Miss Cameron, you've already been in the company for over a month. You have been quite decent in terms of the quality of your work, but you still don't react quickly enough to anything that happens. I'm still

    "Mister Conrad, please let me off…" Lily pleaded. Her thoughts were a mess, and she did not know what to do."Lily, pretty women are meant to be admired by men. You should use your advantages properly! Don't worry, as long as you're with me, I'll guarantee that you get promotions and a higher salary in the future. You'll be able to achieve whatever you want in the company!" Joseph let out a smile as he reached out and held Lily, taking advantage of the fact that her thoughts were in disarray. His lips started to move toward Lily's pretty face.Lily wanted to struggle and fight back, but she thought of her mother lying on the hospital bed, as well as her brother's studies. She suddenly lost any courage to fight back.Suddenly, her face was full of despair and hopelessness.Knock knock knock! Right at that moment, a knock could be heard on the door. Leon pushed the door open and walked inside with the documents from human resources.Looking at what was happening in the office, Leo

    At the very least, his conscience would not let that happen."I don't care who you are, get lost right now! Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude!" Joseph was furious. He was so angry that he wanted to rip Leon apart.Leon was very hesitant.He had Iris behind him, so he was not afraid of Joseph's threats. However, Iris already made it clear that he was not to reveal the relationship, nor did she want him to do as he pleased in the company.Joseph was still his direct superior in name in the end. Furthermore, Joseph was also one of the more powerful people in the company. He was in control of a lot of the company's profits.It would not be good for him to end up in conflict with his superior the very first day he started working.If the issue ended up being escalated further and it affected the company in any way, Iris's impression of him would be greatly affected.Seeing Leon not saying anything back. Joseph thought that Leon was scared. He laughed and said, "What are you st

    "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
