"Impossible!"The people from the Grimstons and Underwoods can leave! But Felton and the people from the Fermers cannot. They must stay today!"Leon asserted firmly, leaving no room for doubt.Earlier, he had received exact information from Fletcher. The leaders of the Fermers, Western Boss and Southern Boss, along with a large group of experts, had left the Fermers, their destination unknown!Initially, he had thought Western Boss and Southern Boss's purpose was to deal with him. But now, neither Western Boss nor Southern Boss had shown up at all.This vaguely made him realize something was amiss, even suspecting that Western Boss and Southern Boss might be plotting something, trying to scheme against him in secret.He had to figure this out!As the son of Western Boss, Felton must know the whereabouts and intentions of Western Boss and Southern Boss.He was determined to keep Felton behind to uncover Southern Boss's whereabouts and to understand the motives of Western Boss an
"I never intended to use the Morrisons' Mansion and the Dagleshs to deal with your three families!" Leon declared."A bunch of trash like you all, I can handle on my own!" he sneered."There's no need for the Morrisons' Mansion and the Dagleshs to intervene!" Leon's gaze towards Felton and Dorian was filled with disdain.His words were not unfounded. With his current comprehensive strength reaching the Semi-Saint State, Felton and Dorian were no more significant to him than ants. They posed no threat whatsoever. Dealing with them would be as easy as flipping a coin. Why would he need anyone else's help?"What?" Leon's statement was like a heavy bombshell, nearly blasting everyone present off their feet."Did we... hear him correctly?""This kid Leon actually said he'll take on the three major powers by himself?""Is he out of his mind?"The surrounding martial families and forces were stunned, unable to believe their ears. While they did not know much about Leon's situation o
"Never mind! Mr. Caleb, Elder Daglesh, you needn't worry.""I have a handle on this matter. Anyway, your two families can just watch from the sidelines. I can handle these worthless scoundrels."Hearing the persuasion from Caleb and Elder Daglesh, Leon remained calm and determined, with no room for negotiation in his tone."Well..." Seeing Leon's insistence, Caleb and Elder Daglesh were completely stunned!Then the two of them could not help but exchange a glance, at a loss for what to do!"Fine, very well! Leon, this is of your own making!"Felton, Dorian, Cassius, and others were infuriated by Leon's arrogance, their laughter filled with anger!Then, as if recalling something, Felton's gaze shifted to Caleb and Elder Daglesh."Mr. Caleb, Elder Daglesh, you both heard what Leon said, didn't you? He already stated for your two families to watch from the sidelines, without needing your help!"If your two families continue to shelter him, or actively assist him in opposing our t
"Felton, enough chit-chating. Why don't you all just come at me now? Let's see who's more powerful!" Leon pointed at Felton, Dorian, and the others, scoffing. "Why you!" They were all furious. Leon was far too arrogant to ask them to attack at once. He was blatantly disrespecting them. Though they desperately wished they could crush him immediately, they were all from prestigious families with a reputation to uphold. With so many others around, they could not gang up on Leon or they would be mocked. On top of that, Leon was just a young nobody who was not qualified to be their opponent. "Kid, I alone should suffice in dealing with a brat like you! We don't all have to attack together!" Just then, the Fifth Apostles stepped forward again. He then bowed at Felton and said, "Mister Felton, please let me deal with this kid. I'll teach him what it means to be this arrogant.""Sure! Destroy him!" Felton said viciously. "Yes!" The Fifth Apostle said and strode forward malicio
"It's over!""Leon's going to die!"...Like Felton, Dorian, and the others, the crowd along with the Morrisons and the Dagleshs all thought that a young man like Leon would lose to the Fifth Apostle. It would be unrealistic to assume otherwise. They all sighed empathetically, feeling that it was a shame for Leon to perish at the hands of the Fifth Apostle. There were others, like Jayden and some younger individuals, who all thought that Leon brought this upon himself. However, what happened next shocked them all. Baam!Following a deafening sound, Leon's Earthly PLunder clashed with the Fifth Apostle's attack. Though Leon did not take the Dragon Pill to display his full strength, he already reached the Intermediate Golden Core Phase and his power went up drastically. Also, the Earthly Plunder was an Advanced Power technique that could gather one's spiritual energy to a single spot, so it wielded tremendous power. As their attacks clashed, his Earthly Plunder tore t
"Damn it! How can this happen?" Snapping out of it, the expressions on Felton and the others darkened. Felton thought he knew the extent of Leon's strength and was certain that he was only in the Initial Almighty State. Yet, Leon somehow managed to defeat the Fifth Apostle, who was in the Intermediate Almighty State. This completely caught him off-guard and he could not figure out how Leon managed it, nor could he accept the reality. "Is Leon even human?""He's so young, yet he managed to defeat the Fifth Apostle!""This is surreal!""Yeah. I guess he's already in the Intermediate Almighty State or above!"...The crowd were all stunned and realization dawned on them. Though they did not know how Leon managed to defeat the Fifth Apostle, they knew one thing for sure. If even the Fifth Apostle could not defeat Leon, his power level must be above the Fifth Apostle's. He was likely one of the top martial artists in the Intermediate Almighty State and given Leon's age, t
"Elder Grimston's right! First Apostle, the four of you will attack together and destroy him!" Felton soon regained his composure. He waved his arm and commanded the remaining four Apostles decisively. Leon's power exceeded his expectations and for safety measures, he dared not to underestimate his opponent and ordered all four Apostles to attack at the same time. That way, he could ensure Leon's demise. "Yes, sir!" the four Apostles said. They then strode forward and stood in four different positions to surround Leon. Apart from that, a few martial artists who stood behind Felton took the opportunity to help the Fifth Apostle up, before returning to Felton. "Leon, your luck has run out. Let's see if you can take the remaining four Apostles on!" Felton sneered. He knew that under normal circumstances, two to three martial artists in the Intermediate Almighty State should be enough to defeat someone in the Advanced Almighty State.The four remaining Apostles were all in
Despite his earlier contemptuous attitude, Leon dared not to take their attacks lightly. He stepped forward and launched the Phantom Steps to swiftly dodge the attacks. "Kid, take this!" Once the attack missed, they all worked together to attack again. Leon repeated the same thing and kept dodging their attacks while he thought about a solution. Though his overall strength reached the Semi-Saint State, he was currently at the invincible level of the Intermediate Almighty State without taking the Dragon Pill. He was not even in the Advanced Almighty State. The four Apostles he faced were all in the Intermediate Almighty State and since he was outnumbered, it would not be as easy as dealing with the Fifth Apostle.Also, because taking the Dragon Pill would leave him vulnerable for a while, he did not intend to take it.He did not think he needed to do so either. Apart from the Dragon Pill, he also had another trick up his sleeve: the Mirror of Soverign. Given his curren
