“Hmm, yes, the Demon Lord was indeed slayed by Leon!”Seeing that Shally already learned the truth, Cynthia and Ruth could no longer keep it a secret. They both nodded to confirm the matter on behalf of Leon."Good, that's great! Truly, there is justice in this world."Upon receiving the affirmative answer from Cynthia and Ruth, Shally's eyes reddened with excitement, and tears began to uncontrollably flow from her beautiful eyes. As the saying goes, the enmity of one's parents is irreconcilable! Demon Lord killed her parents and older brother, so she always wanted to meet the hero who slayed the Demon Lord and thank him in person. This was her greatest wish at the moment!Now, by a stroke of fate, that hero came to her. Moreover, she initially approached Leon with kindness, even helping him solve some troubles. It felt as if her parents and older brother’s spirits in heaven specifically arranged for her to meet Leon, fulfilling her wish. For a moment, she was overwhelmed w
"Elder Destiny, let me lend you a hand!"The Fourth Holy Guardian spoke quickly as he arrived by Hades's side, positioning himself opposite Leon. Together, they formed a menacing trio."Hmm, very well!"With the support of the Fourth Holy Guardian, Hades felt a slight sense of relief. Though he knew Leon's strength was unfathomable, he never actually fought him before and was uncertain of Leon's true capabilities. Now that Leon was refusing to let him escape, there was no option to sit idle or surrender.He had to fight with all he had, ready to clash with Leon right there and then. With the combined might of himself and the Fourth Holy Guardian, they might just stand a chance to defeat Leon or create a miracle!"Fools who don't know their place!"Both of you, come at me together. It will save me the trouble!"Leon sneered, pointing at Hades and the Fourth Holy Guardian with a look of disdain in his eyes."Such arrogance from a mere child!"Kid, since you seek death, I'll gran
Bang!At that moment, with two violent collisions, Leon’s attack clashed head-on with the combined assault of the Fourth Holy Guardian and Hades.The outcome was unsurprising.Leon’s comprehensive strength reached an extraordinarily high level of the Semi-Saint State. How could the Fourth Holy Guardian and Hades possibly be his match?After the collision, the Fourth Holy Guardian, whose cultivation was relatively low, seemed as fragile as paper. Leon’s palm strike sent him flying, his body crashing heavily to the ground.As for Hades, his situation was no better.Leon’s Earthly Plunder technique effortlessly broke through Hades’s attack and defense, sending him flying several meters away, where he rolled heavily to the ground.Coughing violently, the Fourth Holy Guardian and Hades turned pale, each vomiting several mouthfuls of blood. They lay on the ground, utterly drained and severely injured, losing all combat capability.“What?”“How, how's this possible?”Seeing this, ev
And just like that. Leon walked closer to the hopeless Hade, stepped his foot on Hades' chest, and looked at Hades from above."Hades! I have a question for you. Where is Bharma hiding? If you tell me the truth, perhaps I could go easy on you," Leon asked harshly.He knew Hades and Bharma once helped the Southern Boss so the three of them could have kept in contact. If he was right, Hades should know where Bharm was hiding.That was why he did not kill Hades just now. He wanted to use this opportunity to interrogate Hades to find out where Bharma was hiding."Bharma? I— I don't know."After a slight hesitation, Hades quickly denied knowing where Bharma was.He was the one who introduced Bharma to the Southern Boss when Bharma was hiding in the Southern Region. Then Bharma and the Southern Boss worked together to go after Leon.Bharma was the one who arranged for Hades to work under the Central Boss. Originally, Bharma planned to help Hades hide his true identity for other purpos
"I'm finished!" Eaton looked scared, which was different from his calm face just now after seeing how easily Leon killed Hades.Because of the Nortons, he and his family became Leon's enemy. Hades died. The Fourth Holy Guardian was hurt and his vital was unknown.The only people left in the Micahs were Eaton and his three guards. The guards were very weak and definitely could not defeat Leon.If everything were how Eaton guessed, he would be Leon's next target. His ending would not be better off than Hades'. Due to that, he started to feel scared and did not know how to face Leon."Mister Micah, he's too strong. We need to run now!" The guards finally snapped out and were in a hurry to help Eaton run for his life.Too bad, it was too late by now."Run? Do you think that's possible?" Leon snorted.With a wave of his arms, a powerful spiritual energy whirled at Eaton and his guards.Eaton was just a young man. The guards were the Micahs' second-generation fighters. All of them we
"Mister Wolf, you certainly must not do that. The Central Boss has many strong fighters. Going there now is not a wise option. Why don't you let Eaton go before this gets out of hand? Let's just have things as they are now," Howser quickly advised after recovering from the shock.The Central Boss and the Micahs should not be easily messed with. Even he and his family were afraid of them.Luckily Leon was very strong and not someone who got bullied easily. If he let Eaton go now, there could be a chance that the Central Boss was scared of Leon and was willing to make peace with Leon.Then everything would be solved. A better choice than seeing Leon digging his own grave by going to meet with the Micahs now."That's impossible! I'll never let the Central Boss go!" Leon rejected it immediately and sternly.After interrogating Hades, Leon was quite confirmed the Central Boss and Bharma were the same person. Regardless if killing the Central Boss was to help Renee take her revenge or f
"Mister Wolf, the Micahs have many strong fighters. It's too dangerous. You have to be careful when you are there. Please take care of yourself," Keith and Shally said worryingly.They were grateful to Leon because Leon killed The Demon Lord. They wished to lend a helping hand to Leon to repay Leon's kindness.Sadly, they were too weak. Even if they help Leon to fight, they would not make a difference in terms of power. They would likely end up being a burden to Leon. Thus, the only thing they could do for Leon was to pray for him and wish he could be safe."Yes. Leon. You must be careful," Cynthia and Ruth also were worried about Leon.Although they knew how powerful Leon was, the Central Boss was still the most powerful person in the Central Region. His power and forces were far greater than the Southern Boss and the Western Boss.Cynthia and Ruth could not help but worry about Leon's safety after knowing Leon was going to the Micahs by himself."Don't worry. I'll be fine," Leo
Outside of the Micah's manor.Leon, Howser, and the other arrived at the Micah's manor. Their car was parked just a short distance from the entrance. Leon opened the door and grabbed the tired and injured Eaton out of the vehicle.Howser and Isaac came out of the car too."Mister Wolf, that's the Micah's manor. To be honest, I've asked my grandpa to send reinforcement. I think he'll be here with the fighters soon. Why don't we wait outside for them? We can all go in together to meet the Central Boss later. I think that's a better option," Howser thought hard and finally decided to tell Leon his plan."No. It's not necessary. I can settle it myself. Please don't trouble your family," Leon said and shook his head.He took The Dragon Pill and the effect would last around two to three hours before he became weak. There was no time available for him to wait for the fighters from the Jansons to arrive.Thus he rejected the kind offer. Without wasting anything, he grabbed Eaton and walk
"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
