"Oh, it's nothing important. I just have a few questions for you," Renee said. She came over because Hugo told her to stay by Leon's side and prevent him from deciding to work with the Dagleshs. However, she could not quite tell Leon that, so she did not explain in detail. "What is it?" Leon asked. "I want to ask you about Leon Wolf," she said. She did not know that Hugh was Leon, so she came under Hugo's order in the hope of securing a partnership with Cynthion Group. On top of that, she was also really curious about the almighty Leon and wanted to learn more about him through Hugh. "You want to know more about Leon?" A strange look appeared on Leon's face as he wondered what he was supposed to say. After all, it was rather strange that Renee was asking him about himself. "Yeah, I heard that Leon is likely in the Advanced Almighty State! He even eliminated the Demon Lord who ranked third place in the criminal list, while injuring the Southern Boss. Are those all real?"
"No! L- Leon's too young, so he can't be in the Advanced Almighty State." Leon shook his head. He was not lying. Though his overall strength reached the Advanced Almighty State, his actual power level stopped at the Advanced Emperor State. Since he was a modest person, he dared not to say that he was in the Advanced Almighty State. "No? But that's not right. If he isn't in the Advanced Almighty State, how could he kill the Demon Lord and injure the Southern Boss who were both in the Advanced Almighty State?" Renee asked in confusion. Hugh just admitted that Leon did indeed kill the Demon Lord and injure the Southern Boss, but what he said after that contradicted his own words. "Well, Leon got lucky and obtained three extremely powerful Potential Energy Forces from a certain legendary martial artist. He used one of the Potential Energy Forces to kill the Demon Lord and injure the Southern Boss," Seeing as Renee would not give up until she had her answers, Leon had no choice bu
"I see," Renee was slightly disappointed and added, "Well, which level is Leon in, then?" She already knew that Leon relied on the Potential Energy Force to kill the Demon Lord and injure the Southern Boss, but Leon was certainly quite formidable as well for him to have the courage to face up to two martial artists in the Advanced Almighty State. With that said, Leon had to be in the Almighty State. Though she had no opportunity to witness how the Potential Energy Force worked, it would be great to meet someone as capable as Leon as well. "I think he's on the same level as me," Leon said. "As you? How is that possible? Stop talking nonsense!" Renee rolled her eyes at him. She knew that Hugh was rather formidable and that he already reached the Advanced Emperor State, but he was merely a subordinate of Leon and could not rival his superior in terms of strength. From her perspective, she felt that Leon had to be much more powerful than Hugh. "I'm not talking nonsense. I'm
In a famous district filled with antique shops, the biggest jadeite seller the name of Western Gem Store stood. Its interior was glorious and it was filled with jewelry, gems, and jadeites of all sorts. Upon arriving, Leon and Renee first took a stroll around the district before entering the 轩玉斋. It was still early and there were not many customers. There were only a dozen people around, but there were plenty of people gathering at the rock gambling area. There were professional gamblers and professional experts, along with merchants who specialized in jadeite. Leon and Renee stepped into the hall and he glanced at the rock gambling area. Though he could detect the spiritual energy inside the rocks and could practically select the most valuable rock without miss, rock gambling was far too time-consuming. Since he was not in short of money any longer, there was no point for him to seek wealth through this means. He decided that others could have this opportunity instead.
"Can you show me that clear jadeite over there?" Leon pointed at a piece of clear jadeite. "Sure." The saleswoman retrieved the jadeite and handed it to Leon. Leon inspected it and noticed that an eagle was carved into it. Though the craftmanship was excellent, the pattern was far from exquisite so it gave a rather ordinary impression. However, he was purchasing jadeite for the Energy Convergence Circle, not as an accessory or gift, so he could not care less about the craftsmanship. Judging from the size of this piece, it was perfect for the core of the circle. He fired up his spiritual energy and detected an abundance of spiritual energy inside the jadeite, so he was satisfied with it. "How much is this?" he asked. "Sir, this is priced at 1.8 million," the saleswoman said. "Well, that's a fair price! I'll take it!" Leon nodded. He purchased his fair share of jadeites for Energy Convergence Circles before and knew the market price for most items. Judging from the si
"Renee, it's been a while!" Bucky took the initiative to greet Renee, then went on to stare admiringly at her. As the most beautiful woman in the western region, Renee was the dream woman of many young bachelors and he was no exception. He fell for her a long time ago and proceeded to pursue her for a while. Unfortunately, Renee did not return his affection. Her standards were too high and she remained unmoved in response to his advances. She never gave him any chances and rejected him multiple times. Felton, too, was one of Renee's many pursuers. In terms of background, status, and strength as a martial artist, Bucky could not rival with Felton. Therefore, he eventually gave up and started pursuing Aurelia instead. The two of them ended up dating, but the grass would always be greener on the other side. Though he was already dating Aurelia, he still struggled to forget about Renee. Hence, when he saw her again, the feelings he once suppressed resurfaced once more.
"Miss Morrison, who is this next to you?" Aurelia turned and glanced at Leon. A baffled look appeared on her face as she wondered who this strange man was and why he was with Renee. "Oh, he is the vice president of Cynthion Group, Hugh Wolf," Renee said. She was not familiar with Aurelia and she did not want to engage in a conversation with her at first. However, since Aurelia took the initiative to greet her, she had to interact with her out of manner. "Vice president of Cynthion Group? I haven't heard of that before." Aurelia and Bucky exchanged confused looks. During Jaxon's bouquet, many guests who attended met Leon and witnessed what his alchemical pills could do. However, Aurelia and Bucky were not present at the time. Bucky just reached the Initial Emperor State and was far from reaching the Intermediate Emperor State. At the moment, he was not in need of herbs to get past the bottleneck of his training. On top of that, he and Aurelia were busy making arrange
"No! You two are mistaken. I'm just Miss Morrison's friend, not her boyfriend," Leon said before Renee could answer. "What? Is it embarrassing to be my boyfriend? Do you not think that I deserve you?" Renee's expression darkened. As the most beautiful woman in the western region, countless young bachelors fawned over her and they all were desperate to date her. Leon, on the other hand, jumped at the first chance to deny dating her back when Joshua and Ariella mistook him for her boyfriend. Now that Bucky and Aurelia thought the same, he reacted the same way as though she was not a worthy match for him. She took it personally as an insult and given her prideful nature, she got frustrated and shot Leon a dark look. "I-" Leon was taken aback by Renee's reaction. He was not her boyfriend to begin with and merely stated a fact, so he did not know why Renee was mad. However, he spent enough time with his confidantes in the past and knew women well enough to stay quiet when th
