"Rodney, don't worry! Once Fourth Apostle gets rid of Leon, I'll get them to capture all his women to be your playthings! You can do whatever you want with them!" The Southern Boss narrowed his eyes coldly."Southern Boss, we mustn't! The Thompsons have arranged for Roanne to live with Leon. They are trying to protect Leon, Iris, and the others! If we launch an attack toward them and accidentally harm Roanne in the process, the Thompsons will use that as an excuse to start a war with us! That won't do us any good!" Grand Apostle said."But," The Southern Boss was instantly rendered speechless as he realized that Roanne moved in with Leon to prevent him from attacking Leon in secret.The Spears and the Thompsons were always rivals, but since the Thompsons valued their reputation, they never tried to attack the Spears from the dark. However, if the Southern Boss attacked Leon or capture the women, the Thompsons would use that as an excuse to attack the Spears to weaken their influence
Meanwhile, in the Hiltons Mansion, the Southern Boss arrived with Grand Apostle and the Head Guardian to meet with Devon in the living room.Joel was seen next to Devon and after a brief exchange of pleasantry, they each took their seats."Southern Boss, what brought you here?" Devon asked."Elder Hilton, I thought through your proposal about allying a few days ago! Leon's far too capable and has the Thompsons to back him up, so the Spears can't get rid of him on their own! I've come to join forces with the Hiltons to go up against Leon and the Thompsons," The Southern Boss explained."The Thompsons, too? Southern Boss, our common enemy is Leon. All we need to do is take him down! There's no point in getting the Thompsons involved!" Devon said.Though he invited the Southern Boss to ally with the Hiltons, Devon's main purpose was to get rid of Leon.The Thompsons were extremely influential as the head of all families, so there seemed to be no reason at all for them to target the
"Well," Devon's expression darkened and he instantly fell into silence.Elegante Group became a threat to the Hiltons Corporation and out of consideration for the family's benefit, the Hiltons desperately needed to get rid of Leon and Elegante Group as soon as possible.Since the Thompsons invested in the Elegante Group, they would not stand idly by if the Hiltons attacked Leon, so Devon knew that it was a good thing to have the Southern Boss's help.However, since the tables turned and the Southern Boss was the one who brought up the alliance, Devon decided to act hesitant for more gain."Don't worry, Elder Hilton! If you agree to the alliance, I can offer you thirty percent of the profit made by Cynthion Group once I obtain the company!" The Southern Boss saw right through Devon's act and promised.The Southern Boss refused to ally with the Hiltons mainly because he wanted Cynthion all to himself. However, he failed in multiple attempts to kill Leon, and with the Thompsons in th
"That's a great idea! Joel, you are extremely sharp for your age. You're bound to have a bright future awaiting you ahead!" The Southern Boss praised.Though his plan of spreading rumors could pressure the Thompsons, the Thompsons might notice that it was a plot and might not fall for it.Joel's plan of using Yonas to divide the Thompsons internally was the perfect plan.If the first and second bloodline of the Thompsons began fighting amongst themselves, the family would be torn apart and the alliance between the Hiltons and Spears would benefit greatly from it.Devon, too, turned to look at Joel with approval in his eyes."You're too kind, Southern Boss," Joel smiled modestly, feeling smug that he was praised by the Southern Boss."Elder Hilton, that settles it! I'll get my men to start spreading the rumors about Roanne later! We shall leave dividing the Thompsons to Joel and my son, Rodney. I'll tell Rodney to work with Joel. With both plans in place, we should be able to weak
"Uncle Arthur? Why are you here?" Angus and Roanne were both slightly surprised to see them here and went over to greet Arthur."Well, I'm here to ask you about the Sun Pills," Arthur said hesitantly.Ever since Yonas found out that the Sun Pills could enhance martial artists' power, he was determined to obtain one and even went as far as to argue with his uncle over it.He dragged Arthur over in the hope of obtaining a Sun Pill from Angus as soon as possible.Yonas was worried that Angus would keep all the Sun Pills to himself and knew that Angus would not be able to do so if Arthur interfered.Arthur was always a just leader and was not as narrow-minded as Yonas, nor did he think that Angus would selfishly keep all the Sun Pills to himself.However, since the Sun Pills could guarantee martial artists in the Semi-Almighty State to ascend to the Initial Almighty State, Arthur was also eager to obtain the Sun Pills and agreed to come with Yonas to ask Angus for updates."Uncle Ar
"That's enough, Yonas! How dare you insult your uncle again? Haven't you learned your lesson from the time before?" Arthur roared."I-" Yonas opened his mouth to argue but ended up swallowing his pride when he noticed that his grandfather was enraged."Angus, one Sun Pill isn't enough! Is Mister Wolf unwilling to sell more to us?" Arthur asked in disappointment.Though Yonas was selfish, he was still Arthur's grandson, so Arthur did not continue to lecture Yonas now that he stopped speaking.He knew that Yonas wanted a Sun Pill, and since Angus only obtained one pill from Leon, there was not enough to go around.Unlike Yonas who thought that Angus was hiding the Sun Pills, Arthur simply assumed that Leon was unwilling to sell such precious pills to the Thompsons, which was understandable."Well, he had more, but he used most of them and only had one left. It's not that he doesn't want to sell the Sun Pills to us," Angus explained. He paused and added, "Also, the Sun Pills are mad
"Yonas, I reserved this Sun Pill for Yuri. You'll have to wait. Don't worry, though. Once we find a spiritual herb that contains light energy, I'll get Mister Wolf to start making the Sun Pills right away. No matter how many pills he ends up making, I'll reserve one for you," Angus said."Yuri gets it first again? As expected! Uncle, both of your children are getting showered with alchemical pills, and I'm not getting any! Don't you think you are being selfish?" Yonas questioned angrily.Though Roanne took the Motherwort Pill, it was made from Motherwort, which worked in a similar way as the Sun Pill to enhance martial artists' power.With the help of the Motherwort Pill and the Cleansing Pill, Roanne successfully reached the Intermediate Emperor Stat4e.Both Roanne and Yuri obtained powerful alchemical pills, while Yonas was left behind, so he simply could not bring himself to accept such an arrangement."I," Angus was rendered speechless."That's enough! Yuri is extremely talen
"Why you!" Arthur was frustrated by how stubborn Yonas was and was about to say something else when Yuri hurried inside."It's fine, Dad! The Sun Pill can get martial artists in the Semi-Almighty State to the Almighty State. Right now, I'm only in the Advanced Emperor State, so I don't need the Sun Pill right now. Since Mister Wolf has agreed to produce more Sun Pills for us, I can wait. Just make sure you save one for me then," Yuri said with a smile.He was outside the room earlier and overheard the conversation between Angus, Yonas, and Arthur, so he learned that there was only one Sun Pill and decided to let Yonas have it instead.The Almighty State was one of the milestones on the path of a martial artist and a majority of the older generation would stop at the Semi-Almighty State. Since the Sun Pill could guarantee the rise to the Initial Almighty State from the Semi-Almighty State, it would be best for Yuri to take the pill when he reached the Semi-Almighty State and there wa
