"Don't get smug! You challenged me repeatedly during the bouquet just because you have Renee and Jensen backing you! It's about time we settle the scores!" Felton sneered maliciously. During the bouquet, Jensen and the others all supported Leon and Felton did not have an appropriate reason to harm Leon. Since Jensen and the others all left and Renee was the only one left by Leon's side, he no longer had any concern and could do as he pleased with Leon. "Like you can do anything to me. What a joke!" Leon laughed and looked at him in contempt. He was hardly bluffing. With his overall strength now reaching the Advanced Almighty State, even the Western Boss himself would not be able to harm him, not to mention Felton. Hence, he did not see Felton as a threat at all. "How dare you run your mouth when you are about to meet your demise? You asked for this! Since you have a death wish, I'll make it come true!" Felton was completely enraged by Leon's contemptuous attitude. He rais
"So what if I'm out of line? This brat kept offending me and I'm going to teach him a lesson. Get out of the way, Renee, or I won't show you mercy!" Felton threatened. Renee's answer convinced him further that Leon might truly be her boyfriend. He pursued Renee for a while, yet Leon managed to date her in the end. Instantly, his resentment toward Leon intensified and he desperately wished he could tear Leon apart. "No way! I'm not getting out of the way. If you want to hurt Hugh, you'll need to get past me first!" Renee said with determination. Though Leon was not her boyfriend, he was a guest of the Morrisons. On top of that, Leon helped her get to the Emperor State using the Pure Energy Pill and Motherwort Pill. She was grateful for what he did and could not possibly stand idly by while Felton attempted to hurt Leon. "Like you can stop me! What a joke! You know my strength, Renee. Do you think you have what it takes to stop me from teaching this brat a lesson?" Felton lau
"Jensen, are you going to make me your enemy for this guy's sake?" Felton's expression darkened and he glared sharply at Jensen. "Mister Fermer, I'll repeat this: I have no intention of opposing you! Mister Wolf hasn't done anything to you, yet you undermined him. You are out of line here. Mister Wolf offered me a pill and if you intend to harm him, I won't stand idly by!" Jensen said calmly. "Why you! Very well! Jensen, Renee, you asked for this. Since you two insist on protecting him, don't blame me for not showing mercy!" Felton was utterly enraged by the fact that Renee and Jensen kept protecting Leon. Not wanting to waste more of his time, he waved his arm and commanded his guards, "You two will deal with Hugh. Destroy him and feed him to the hounds! I will handle Jensen and Renee!" Renee and Jensen's statuses rivaled that of his and on top of that, Renee was the woman he was interested in. If he had any other option, he would not choose to hurt her. However, Renee and
Baam! Following a deafening sound, the combined attack launched by Renee and Jensen clashed with Felton's true energy. Though both of them reached the Initial Emperor State, they just reached this level while Felton long reached the Intermediate Emperor State. As their attacks clashed, Felton remained completely still while the other two backed away under the pressure of his energy. "He's good!" Their expression darkened once they steadied themselves. Initially, they thought they could stand a chance against Felton now that they both reached the Initial Emperor State. However, a casual blow from Felton could easily overwhelm them and his strength surpassed what they imagined. Even if they fought together, there was no way they could defeat him. "Mister Wolf, Felton is too strong and we can't beat him! Miss Morrison and I will stall him, so run while you can!" Jensen snapped out of it and shouted at Leon. Leon was Felton's ultimate target. Though they could not beat Felt
"Yes, sir!" The guards did not delay and both launched their attacks at Felton's bodyguards, attempting to force them into giving up. "Get out of the way!" Felton's expression darkened. The guards were about to finish Leon off, so Felton would not allow anyone to interfere. He waved his arm and sent off a wave of powerful true energy that overwhelmed Jensen's guards instantly. "Oh no!" Jensen's guards were both shaken. They were just ordinary guards who ran errands for Jensen. Hence, they were merely in the Advanced Overlord State, which was miles away from the Intermediate Emperor State Felton was in. Hence, there was no way they could withstand Felton's attack. Baam! Baam!" Following two deafening sounds, the two were sent flying by Felton's true energy and slammed hard onto the ground. As soon as they landed, a sharp pain pierced through their chests and they each spat blood before lying sprawled on the ground. "Die!" The two guards were right in front of Leon and
"You are just in the Advanced Overlord State and you dare to challenge me? Know your place!" Leon scoffed. Just as he was about to fight back, he recalled something. After defeating the Southern Boss, he and his confidantes all trained and made progress in their training. Leon's true energy reached the Advanced Overlord State and he was close to reaching the Peak Overlord State. Based on the energy he detected from the guards, they were in the Advanced Overlord State and slightly weaker than him. Despite all the tricks he had up his sleeves, he only needed to use his true energy to take care of the guards and there was not even a need to use spiritual energy. On top of that, he mainly focused on training his spiritual energy so far and neglected his growth in true energy. Since he was now facing enemies of a similar level, he decided this was the perfect opportunity for him to gain more experience and reach the Peak Overlord State as soon as possible. With that thought
"You are the one who should know your place!" Leon scoffed and leaped into the air to dodge the attack. Then, he turned to land a powerful kick that aimed for the guard's neck. "How swift!" The guard was shocked by the powerful true energy Leon wielded. He initially thought that he could apply great damage with the element of surprise. To his bewilderment, Leon was swift enough to dodge his attack and launch a counterattack. Leon's movements were smooth with no excessive moves, which surprised him. The guard was still on the momentum of his initial attack and had no time to dodge. At the very last moment, he rolled off the ground to distance himself from Leon. However, Leon's attack had a wide range and the guard was one step too late. Though he managed to avoid taking the blow on his neck, Leon's true energy struck in in the chest and he was instantly sent flying. Baam! Paling, the guard spat blood and sustained internal injuries like the other guard. "What? How is
"Great! Mister Wolf, we didn't know that you were in the Advanced Overlord State! We seemed to be worrying over nothing!" ... Renee, Jensen, and Ariella were all overjoyed and the concern in their hearts vanished instantly. Through the wave of true energy around Leon when he fought the guards, they could tell that he was in the Advanced Overlord State. Though they did not know how Leon managed to defeat the guards easily when he was on the same level as them, they knew one thing: Felton was being stalled and his guards were defeated. So long as Leon took this opportunity to run, Felton would not be able to do anything and all issues would be resolved once Leon got away. "No! No way! This isn't real!" Contrary to their reaction, Jacob, who was waiting for Leon to embarrass himself, froze and stared at Leon in disbelief. Ever since he was introduced to Leon, he was told that Leon was a mere vice president of Cynthion Group and he looked down on Leon because of that. Even
"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
