"Mister Mercer's right!"

"Mister Wolf has caused the company such tremendous losses. He needs to be terminated!"

"At the same time, we need to make sure to keep our right to pursue this in court!"

The executives were all in a furious uproar.

"Leon, what do you have to say for yourself?!" Iris forced her anger down.

"I… have nothing to say. This is all my fault, and I'm willing to bear with any punishment…" Leon said bitterly.

He could still not understand how an illegal substance somehow appeared in the product. He did not know if it was due to his own mistakes or any other reasons.

However, he knew something very well. This time, he was in charge of the production, so it was hard for him to avoid any responsibility!

That was not the critical part. The most important part was that he felt like he betrayed Iris's expectations. He regretted it deeply, and could not face Iris.

All he could do was muster up the courage to take responsibility like a man so Iris would not get angrie

    "Miss Young, I know that isobutylparaben is an illegal substance, but since Mister Wolf developed the new cosmetics, he's been completely in charge of the production. Furthermore, everything in the production line was strictly done following his wishes. I had no right to interfere. Furthermore, I gave the document over to Mister Wolf before the products were sent out. He signed off on it," Guido took out the document for everyone to see, and they quickly saw that Leon signed it."Mister Wolf, the proof is right there! The workers on the production line were all working under your orders. They added isobutylparaben under your mistaken instructions! What do you have to say about that?!" Ashwin said with a cold smile.Before Leon could even respond, Ariel stood up and said, "Mister Mercer, before the matter has been investigated, you don't have to be so quick to pin the blame on Leon!"Saying that Ariel shot a sharp look at Stanley, "Mister Wallace, you're the workshop manager overseei

    "Ariel, could you be mistaken?" Leon said with uncertainty.After working together for a few days, Leon trusted Stanley quite a bit.However, thinking about how Stanley looked over the documents before Leon signed them, Leon started to be a little unsure.After all, it was suspicious that Stanley did not notice any problems with his skills."Miss Summers, this has nothing to do with me. I'm innocent," Stanley never expected that Ariel would point right at him. He started to panic a little as his palms started to sweat anxiously."You know yourself if you're innocent! As the manager of the workshop, how could you not notice anything at all faces such huge problems in production?! Similarly, if anyone wanted to harm Leon, they would need your help. Otherwise, there's no way it would escape your eyes! In other words, even if you weren't the one sabotaging Leon, you know the details!" Ariel sneered."I-I didn't…" Stanley paled, already in complete panic.He was never a good liar nor

    "And what did you do? Did you feed your heart to the dogs?!" Ariel got angrier as she spoke, voicing out the injustice for Leon."What? He recommended me, and wanted to share the rewards with me? H-how is that possible!?" Stanley was shocked. He looked like he was struck by lightning as he stood in place."There's nothing impossible about it! If you don't believe me, you can ask Miss Young!" Ariel said coldly.Iris nodded, "Miss Summers is right! Both she and Leon said that you were quite capable. I considered that Mister Lennon from the second factory was retiring in a month, and planned on having you take over his position as the factory manager!"As for the Leon wanting to give you half the dividends, it's true as well. It's just that the dividends aren't something to be played around with, so I didn't agree to it!" "That…" Stanley was stunned.He thought that Leon took all the glory for himself. Yet, he never expected that he misunderstood Leon!Not only did Leon not do any

    Guido's face was etched with despair as fear surged through his entire body. The color drained from both Ashwin and Michael's faces, and their hearts sank when they realized what happened. Neither of them could understand why everything changed so abruptly. Things were going so well before, but Stanley's shifted allegiance ruined their plans! The worse part was, what if Guido decided to betray them and expose their involvement in this to Iris? "Tell me who ordered you to do this?" Iris was even more outraged to discover that other people besides Guido were behind this. "It's—" Guido instinctively glanced in Ashwin and Michael's direction, but when he caught sight of the murderous look in their eyes, he perked up and stopped himself from saying anything further. "Tell me who is it, quick! If you don't want to say anything, I'll call the cops right now and let them arrest you under a fiscal offense!" Iris spat. "It's…" Guido could not help shuddering when he heard this.

    Michael shot Leon a murderous glare as he said this. "You're insane! I've already clarified multiple times that Leon isn't my boyfriend, and nothing is going on between the two of us, so you're just spouting nonsense!" Ariel snapped. "That's impossible! You were the one who introduced him to our company, and in doing so, you even got rid of Conrad! Why else would you do this for him if he wasn't your boyfriend? Do you think I'm an idiot, Ariel?" Michael scoffed. "What nonsense! Who told you I was the one who introduced Leon to the company, and what made you think I got Conrad fired because of him? Let me tell you this; Iris was the one who did all this, and none of it had anything to do with me at all! I was just the scapegoat for her actions!" Ariel finally exploded. Being the scapegoat for somebody else was not a pleasant experience, and in doing so, rumors started circulating about her and Leon being an item, so this significantly impacted her reputation. It was a miracle

    "Michael, Guido, Stanley, all three of you were involved in attempting to frame Leon for fraud, and in doing this, you brought on a massive financial loss to the company, and this cannot be forgiven! From today onwards, all three of you are officially fired, and you no longer have anything to do with Elegante Group!" Iris declared solemnly. Seeing that the three of them gave their service to the company for many years, Iris decided to show them mercy by firing them instead of pursuing legal prosecution for their crimes. "Thank you, Miss Young—" the three of them thanked her grimly and stood up, getting ready to leave. "Miss Young, wait a minute," all of a sudden, Leon took a step forward. "What is it?" Iris glanced at him dubiously. "Miss Young, the ability to understand and rectify one's mistake is a quality that I feel everyone should appreciate. I'm sure that Mister Wallace was forced to take part in this out of his responsibility as the breadwinner of his household, an

    Leon and Ariel followed her out of the room. Ashwin clenched his fists as he watched their retreating figures disappear from view, his face ashen. He planned this scheme down to the last detail in an attempt to get rid of Leon, but everything was ruined! Even though he managed to get away unscathed, he knew that Iris already began to suspect him. However, because he sacrificed and achieved so much for the company, and also because his grandfather was a shareholder of Young Group, Iris chose to give him another chance. Rats! Despite feeling defeated, Ashwin knew that he had no choice but to accept this. The last look Iris shot him before leaving was a look of warning. If he dared to stir something up again, there was no guarantee that Iris would show him mercy in the future! As soon as the meeting ended, Leon rushed to Wick Group to apologize to Elder Wick in person and clarify what happened. Elder Wick was extremely gracious about this; not only did he choose no

    "Well, clearly fate wanted us to run into each other, so why don't we go inside together?" He said lightheartedly. "No thanks. I'm here for a meeting, so I won't be able to join, unfortunately." Leon shook his head. Leon was an orphan, and the only way he managed to get into college was because he worked hard his whole life to save up for his college fund. However, because he hailed from poverty, he was always looked down by his classmates and did not have many friends. Not only that, but he was a shy person and mostly kept to himself. Dominic was the total opposite; He hailed from a wealthy family who owned millions of dollars in assets. Therefore, Dominic was always the popular kid and the target of many girls' fancies during his college days. Leon and Dominic were never the type of people one would expect to hang out together, but not only that, Dominic used to pick on Leon a lot during college. Besides, no one invited him to the gathering, so of course, he would not

    "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
