"Mister Wolf, don't mess with us! These herbs should add up to at least 287 million. A vice president like you can't possibly afford it." Josua was the first to snap out of it. He sneered and glanced at Leon in contempt. Apart from Renee, he and Ariella were the first people to know Leon and they knew about Leon's background. According to what he knew, Leon was just a vice president from a small business in the southern region and was not even a descendant of influential families. With that in mind, he assumed that Leon might not even possess 3 million, let alone hundreds of millions. Yet, Leon claimed that he wanted to purchase all fifteen herbs. This was practically impossible and he refused to believe Leon could accomplish it."That's right!" "Kid, I'm warning you. Suppose you can't afford the herbs, scram. Don't cause trouble here! If you keep this up, we will show you no mercy." ... Realization dawned on the others and they all turned to glare at Leon. They knew
"Who says I can't afford them?" Leon scoffed and was about to continue when Jaxon came down from the stage. "Mister Wolf, you might not be an expert in herbs. There are different types of herbs with different effects. Even if you buy all fifteen of them, they won't all be useful to you. These herbs that have grown for three hundred years work great. If you like them, you can buy one and try how it works on you first," Jaxon said. Though he did not think someone of Leon's status could afford the herbs, he could not insult Leon like the others as he was the host. Moreover, Leon was Renee's boyfriend and with her help, Leon should be able to purchase a three-hundred-year-old herb even if he could not afford the other ones that cost tens of millions. Hence, he recommended the cheaper herbs to Leon and gave him an excuse to give up. So long as Leon accepted it, he would not embarrass himself and Renee. "It's fine. Mister Feaks, I'm interested in them all. Please pack them and calcul
"Yeah, Mister Fermer is right!" "These herbs are really expensive and add up to about 287 million. Not many people here can afford them!" "Kid, if you keep causing trouble, we won't spare you!" ... The others agreed with Felton's view. Though they were all from wealthy families with a net worth of thousands of millions, their fortune were mainly in the form of properties. Even higher-status elites like Felton and Renee would struggle to gather such a big fund, not to mention a vice president like Leon. They all assumed Leon was trying to cause trouble because that seemed to be the only possibility. "Just because you can't afford it, doesn't mean I can't! Mister Feaks, just run the card!" Leon scoffed. He saw no point in arguing about a fact. All they needed was to run his card to find out if he had enough funds, so he did not bother to argue with the others. "Why you! How stubborn!" ... The others were all enraged by Leon's arrogance and glared at him, thinking
"What!" Jaxon's jaw dropped when he received the money. He did not expect Leon to pay 287 million in his wildest dream and this caught him by surprise. He froze in place, unable to react. "Mister Feaks, what's going on? This kid doesn't have money, does he? I knew that he was just bluffing. Now that his cover has been blown, let's see what he has to say for himself!" Felton sneered and narrowed his eyes maliciously. He already reached an agreement with Mister Daglesh and the others. If Leon failed to pay, they would not stop him from dealing with Leon any longer. Seeing as Jaxon was stunned, Felton assumed that it was because Leon did not have enough money in the card. Not showing mercy, he waved his arm, ready to order his guards to capture Leon. However, the reality was cruel. Before he could place the order, what happened next shook him to his core. "No, Mister Fermers! I've received 287 million and there is more than enough funds in Mister Wolf's card!" Jaxon sn
"How could this happen?" Contrary to Renee and Ariella's reaction, Joshua was utterly stunned. He already learned from Renee that Leon was just the company's vice president. With such a low status, he could not understand how Leon managed to gather such a large amount of money. It was unbelievable and he would have never believed it to be real if he did not see it himself. "Damn it! How did that kid do this?" Felton clenched his fists, his expression darkened. He was just imagining how he could teach Leon a lesson once he failed to pay 287 million. To his surprise, he was wrong. Thinking back to how he mocked Leon and discussed with others how they would teach Leon a lesson, he felt like a fool. Instantly, he was so embarrassed that he wished he could hide. Naturally, he was not the only one. The others were all ashamed of their arrogance and mockery. "Mister Fermer, didn't you question if I can afford these herbs? I've already paid. What else do you have to say?" Leo
"Kid, you can't buy all the herbs!" Felton was the first to snap out of it and stood forward. He was in the Intermediate Emperor State and rivaled Hugo in terms of strength. He came here to purchase herbs that matched his physique to boost his training in the hope that he could surpass Hugo soon. He was a few years younger than Hugo and if he managed to surpass Hugo, he could become the brightest talent in his generation. This was his dream for as long as he could remember. However, Leon bought all three spiritual herbs and he could not accept this. "That's right!" "Kid, we are all here to purchase herbs!" "Ya, what are we going to do if you buy them all?" ... The others chimed in, all reluctant to let Leon buy all the herbs. "What a joke! You were the ones who doubted if I had the money to buy all the herbs. Now that I've paid, you won't let me take the herbs away? Don't you think you are out of line?" Leon questioned with a dark expression. "Well," The others we
"Very well. You asked for this. Since you don't know your place, don't blame me for this!" Felton was enraged by Leon's contemptuous attitude. Not wanting to waste his time, he raised his arm and prepared to fight Leon. "Hang on!" "Wait!" ... Just then, two different voices rose. One belonged to Renee, who took a step forward and stood before Leon to prevent Felton from harming him. The other came from Mister Daglesh, who stepped out of the crowd. "Jensen, you again! What's the meaning of this? Are you going to side with this kid again?" Felton's cold gaze landed on Mister Daglesh. Renee was supposed to be Leon's girlfriend, so it was normal that she would protect him. However, Jensen was not related to Leon in any way. However, he kept opposing Felton and stopping him from harming Leon. Felton was enraged, thinking that Jensen underestimated him. "Mister Fermer, I have no intention of being your enemy. I just need to discuss something with Mister Wolf," Jensen sa
"Why not? Mister Wolf, these fifteen types of herbs all have different effects. If you want to enhance your power, not all of them will work for you. If you could sell me one of the herbs, I'll owe you one and help you whenever you are in need," Jensen said. Though he did not know why Leon needed so many herbs, he knew that Leon should only need one or two herbs if he needed to enhance his power or promote his health. It seemed like a small favor for Leon to sell him one of the herbs. The others were already displeased that Leon bought all the herbs. However, they were all from honorable families. On top of that, Leon was Renee's boyfriend so they would not dare to harm Leon. However, Felton was different. He was a member of the underground society and always got his way. He already took the opportunity and attempted to take the herbs away by force. It seemed impossible for a mere vice president to rival Felton, who had high status and power in the Intermediate Emperor Stat
"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
