"Damn it!" The Southern Boss's expression darkened. Knowing that his strength did not rival Arthur's, he wanted to back away but was then reminded that Rodney was standing behind him. If the Southern Boss moved away, Arthur's attack would land on Rodney and Rodney might very well be killed on the spot; naturally, the Southern Boss would only stand his ground. "Sir, allow me to help you!" The Great Apostle noticed the Southern Boss's predicament and hurried over to his side, before launching a powerful attack toward Arthur. "Take this, old man!" The Southern Boss took the opportunity to launch an attack of his own at Arthur as well. "Baam!" Following a gigantic noise, the combined attack launched by the Southern Boss and Great Apostle clashed with Arthur's power. Though Arthur was extremely powerful, the Southern Boss and Great Apostle were not to be underestimated. Southern Boss was only slightly weaker than Arthur, and the Great Apostle long reached the Intermediate Al
"Elder Thompsons, you said that Rodney was the one who killed Yonas! Did you and Leon see that happen, or do you have some kind of evidence? Do not make any false accusation when you don't have anything to support your claim!" The Southern Boss said coldly. "So what if we don't have any evidence? Rodney admitted to it! Why would we need evidence?" Arthur said in a sinister tone. "Of course, you need evidence! Rodney merely fell into Leon's trap and said the wrong thing! That doesn't mean anything! Leon is the one who killed Yonas and he only set Rodney up to frame Rodney for his crime! Don't fall for it!" The Southern Boss said. He knew that Rodney did not leave any trace behind when he killed Yonas, so he refused to take the blame without putting up a fight since the Thompsons had no proof of anything. "Why you!" Arthur was furious as he never saw someone so shameless in his life, who would refuse to admit his own e to this extent. "You mustn't vent your anger on innocent pe
"You? What a joke! Southern Boss, the Spears can hardly put up a fight against us Thompsons!" Arthur scoffed, not taking the Southern Boss’s threat seriously. The Thompsons were the head of all families in the southern region, yet the Southern Boss arrogantly claimed that he would eliminate the Thompsons and Leon. Arthur could not figure out what gave the Southern Boss the confidence to make such a threat. Just then, the situation changed drastically when a voice echoed in the air, saying, "You are right, Elder Thompson! The Southern Boss and Spears alone might not be able to do much to the Thompsons, but that might not be the case if they join forces with us Hiltons!" Followed by the voice was the appearance of Devon, Joel, and the other Hiltons from the outside, ambushing the Thompsons' first bloodline from behind. "Devon Hiltons?!" Arthur was shaken by the Hiltons' sudden appearance. Though he did not know that the Hiltons joined forces with the Southern Boss, he knew t
"Hiltons, what is the meaning of this? Are you trying to declare war against us alongside the Southern Boss?" Arthur questioned darkly. "Elder Thompson, the Hiltons don't intend on being your enemies! However, Leon injured my grandson sometime ago, and I'm here to make Leon pay for that! As long as the Thompsons step aside and stop protecting Leon, the Hiltons won't hurt any member of the Thompsons! However, we won't show any mercy to those who stand in our way!" Devon threatened. Elegante Group became the biggest competitor of Hiltons Corporation, and the Hiltons attempted to kill Leon time and time again to either bring down the company. However, the Hiltons were still a respected house, so they could not simply commit murder and robbery on the surface, so Devon decided to attack Leon, using Joel's injury as an excuse. On top of that, the Thompsons were the head of all families in the southern region with great power and influence. Though the Hiltons and Spears outnumbered th
"What? Joel was involved in Yonas's murder as well?!" Arthur and Angus were stunned at the realization that Rodney and Joel were involved. It finally made sense that the Hiltons came to back the Southern Boss up as they likely already allied. Contrary to their surprise, Leon remained composed as he already guessed Joel's involvement in the matter when Devon and the Hiltons appeared, and his thought was merely confirmed. "Southern Boss!" Devon's expression darkened, knowing that the Southern Boss tried to drag the Hiltons into his fight with the Thompsons. He must admit that the Southern Boss's plan worked; since Arthur now knew that Joel was involved in Yonas's murder, he was bound to seek revenge against the Hiltons if he survived the confrontation with the Southern Boss and the Hiltons could not bear to risk that. "Very well! Southern Boss, Hilton, you two plotted to kill my grandson and I'll make you two pay for that!" Arthur was furious and glared at the two hatefully, de
"You'll find out who I am later!" Leon scoffed and ignored them to turn his attention to Arthur and the Thompsons. "Elder Thompson, I'll deal with this. You and the Thompsons need to stop the Southern Boss and the Hiltons. Leave the Four Apostles to me! Once I take care of the Four Apostles, I'll help you deal with the Southern Boss!" Leon decided. Since the Southern Boss was in the Advanced Almighty State, Leon did not have the power to confront him at the moment and only Arthur could do so. Since the Four Apostles were all in the Intermediate Almighty State, Leon was confident that he could take care of all four of them using the Mirror of Sovereign. The Four Apostles were the Southern Boss's strongest subordinates and the heads of the Spears, so the other Spears would not pose as a threat once the Four Apostles were out of the way. With the power the Thompsons held, Angus and the elders were more than capable of defeating the rest of the Spears and Hiltons. "What?" Art
"Running? Not so soon! Block their way. Don't let them get away!" The Southern Boss and Devon commanded. The Spears and Hiltons instantly surrounded Leon and the Thompsons, blocking all paths they could use to escape. "Damn it! Mister Wolf, the Thompsons will make a way for you. Hurry up and run!" Arthur's expression darkened and raised his arm to order an attack, only to be stopped by Leon. "It's fine, Elder Thompson! I don't intend to run, nor is there a need to! I stand by my words. You and the Thompsons need to keep the Southern Boss and the Hiltons in place while I deal with the Four Apostles! We will join forces and eliminate the Southern Boss and the Hiltons in one go!" Leon said. "Why you!" Arthur's expression darkened. He never anticipated for Leon to be so stubborn and insist on fighting the Southern Boss. If he acted according to Leon's plan, Leon himself and the Thompsons would all perish and no one would escape alive, so he could not allow Leon to act as he ple
"Brat, mind your tongue! Prepare to die!" The Fourth Apostle scoffed and charged toward Leon at the speed of lightning. "Bring it on!" Leon snorted. He stepped forward and extended his fist, sending his energy toward the Fourth Apostle. Seeing how the situation escalated, Leon already took the Dragon Pill when the Southern Boss first appeared. Under the Dragon Pill's effect, his power level reached the Semi-Almighty State and the power of the Mirror of Sovereign reached the Intermediate Almighty State as well. It was no exaggeration to say that the Fourth Apostle could not even break through Leon's defense, so Leon had no fear toward him. "You must have a death wish!" The Fourth Apostle narrowed his eyes dangerously. He did not know about all the cards in Leon's hand and assumed a young man like Leon would perish under his attack. Seeing how Leon refused to back away and instead faced his attack head-on, the Fourth Apostle decided to show no mercy and strengthened his
