"No way!" Renee rubbed her eyes in disbelief. She thought that Leon was destined to perish for facing two martial artists in the Almighty State. To her bewilderment, she could not be more wrong. Not only was Leon safe, he defeated the two elderly men with a single blow and his attack even managed to injure Gaston, Bucky, and Aurelia who stood at the back. It was so surreal that she was shaken to the core. "Damn it! How can this happen?" Gaston and the others were all shaken by the power of Hurricane Break and their hearts sank. They all assumed that Leon was only in the Semi-Almighty State. Since the two elderly men were in the Almighty State and Leon was outnumbered, they assumed that defeating him would be easy. They even planned on destroying him to nib his talent in the crib. However, the reality delivered a resounding slap to them. Leon defeated two martial artists with a single attack and the aftermath of the attack was powerful enough to injure everyone else.
"How did Renee find such a powerful boyfriend? I can't accept this," Aurelia covered her chest and glared resentfully at Renee and Leon. She repeatedly undermined Hugh because she mistook Hugh for Renee's boyfriend and assumed that he was just a lowly vice president. She thought that Hugh could not compare to her boyfriend, Bucky, and wanted to embarrass Renee by using Hugh as an excuse. However, her plan did not work out. Not only was Hugh extremely wealthy and embarrassed them at the jadeite shop, but he was also an extremely powerful martial artist; even Gaston and two other martial artists in the Almighty State were no match for him. It was unheard of for someone Loen's age to reach such a high level of accomplishment and the sky was the limit for him. It was no exaggeration that Hugh surpassed Bucky in every aspect possible and no one in the younger generation could compare with him throughout the entire Sky County. Unfortunately, such a formidable figure turned out
While Gaston and the Grimstons regretted their actions, a sneer sounded. "How impressive!" Felton strode forward with two formidable-looking elderly men, his arm wrapped in thick layers of bandage. Though the jadeite shop was located in a rather isolated corner and there were not many people since it was still early, the fight between Leon and the Grimstons drew the attention of a lot of passersby. Many stopped in their tracks to watch them from afar, desperately trying to find out what was going on. Felton was amongst them as well. He had some business to take care of and happened upon the scene. When he saw how Leon managed to defeat two martial artists in the Almighty State, he could not help but step out of the crowd. "Felton Fermer!" Leon's expression darkened. He was once in a conflict with Felton back at Jaxon's mansion. Afterward, Felton and the Western Boss sent assassins to ambush him at the hotel, which deepened the grudge between them. Hence, Leon saw no
"Hugh, are you Leon Wolf?" Renee was stunned. Hugh's question indirectly confirmed that he was Leon. Amid her shock, everything seemed to make sense now. Hugh was the mysterious hero she had longed to meet all along. "Well, yeah, I'm Leon," Leon said awkwardly. Since Felton exposed his identity, he saw no point in lying and admitted it. He used Hugh as his name in front of Renee and he dodged the subject whenever she asked him about Leon, so he was deceiving Renee all along and he felt slightly awkward about it. "I see! It's no wonder that you're so formidable! I should've known that you're Leon!" Renee said. She was quite confused as to how a mere vice president could pull out such a large sum of cash to purchase herbs and jadeites. On top of that, his strength was unmeasured, and even Gaston and his men were no match for Leon. Upon learning that Hugh was Leon, the chairman of Cynthion Group, realization dawned on her and she finally realized why he was so formidab
"Mister Grimston, why are you still standing there?" Felton was not in the mood to chat with Leon and took the opportunity of Leon's thoughtful state to wink at the Grimstons. Though the Fermers and Grimstons were not close, an enemy of an enemy was a friend. Felton refused to let Leon show off his strength and stood forward in time to cause trouble for Leon. Helping the Grimstons may be proven to be useful at some point. "Oh, sure!" The Grimstons snapped out of it and after taking a moment to rest, they felt slightly better. They gritted through the pain and stumbled to get up. "Let's go!" Gaston said. The two almighty martial artists grabbed the arms of Bucky and Aurelia, before darting away to prevent Leon from coming after them. "Running? Not so soon!" Leon narrowed his eyes coldly. Though he injured the Grimstons with Hurricane Break earlier, their arrogance provoked him. He did not get the chance to settle the scores because Felton got involved, but there was no
"Felton, are you that determined to make me your enemy?" Leon said coldly. He was yet to find the time to retaliate when the Western Boss and Felton sent someone to the hotel to attack him. Now, Felton's actions escalated further and he was causing trouble for Leon in any way he could. It was far out of line and Leon developed a hint of malicious intent toward Felton. "So what if I am?" Felton raised an eyebrow proudly. "Very well. You asked for this. Since you have a death wish, I'll grant you your wish. Let's settle our scores!" Leon laughed angrily, enraged by Felton's attitude. "Like you can do anything to me. What a joke! Leon, you may be powerful and unrivaled in the younger generation, but the Apostles with me are both in the Intermediate Almighty State! I'm excited to see how you are going to fight them!" Felton sneered. He saw the fight between Leon and the Grimstons and knew that Leon was likely in the Almighty State, which meant that Leon was a formidable oppon
"Well," Felton sobered. Leon was formidable and to prevent any accidents, the Western Boss reminded him repeatedly not to cross Leon for the next few days. Everything had to wait until the Western Boss completed his training. However, Felton came to resent Leon. He ran into Leon and happened to have two powerful Apostles with him. Because the two Apostles were in the Intermediate Almighty State, they should be able to defeat Leon with ease and this was the perfect chance to destroy Leon. Hence, he was reluctant to listen to their advice and give up. "Third Apostle, Fifth Apostle, could you tell which power level Leon is in? If you two work together, are you confident that you can defeat or destroy him?" Felton asked thoughtfully. "That technique he used was quite powerful, but judging from the explosive power of it, he hasn't reached the Intermediate Almighty State! If I'm not mistaken, he's probably in the Initial Almighty State and still a few steps away from reaching t
"Good! Leon is the enemy of the Fermers. Since he is no match for you, why should we fear him and miss out on the chance to seize him?" Felton became even more confident after hearing what they had to say and swiftly made up his mind. Though the Western Boss reminded him not to pick on Leon for the next few days to prevent unexpected accidents, there should be some flexibility in the decisions he made. As fate would have it, he ran into Leon again. The Third and Fifth Apostles were certain that they could defeat Leon and this was a perfect opportunity. If he gave up on this opportunity, he may not get another chance to eliminate Leon. After weighing his options, he decided to ignore the Western Boss's order and attack Leon. So long as he managed to destroy Leon and found a way to seize Cynthion Group, the Western Boss would be pleased and would not blame him for ignoring his order. Hence, Felton was not at all worried about it. "But," The Third and Fifth Apostles exchan
