"What?" Everyone, including the Four Apostles and all the members of the Micah family, gasped upon hearing this. They could hardly believe their ears!Every single one of them heard of Central Boss—his power was comparable to the Semi-Saint State, but the fact that he had outright admitted that he was no match for Leon…It demonstrated a horrifying fact—that Leon was far more powerful than they all thought, surpassing even the Semi-Saint State! This feat was unheard of, especially for someone at the young age of thirty!This was practically a miracle!One could only imagine how thunderstruck they were to hear of this, but they were not the only ones taken aback by this news—even Howser and Isaac were too stunned for words.After witnessing Leon single-handedly defeat Hades, both of them were convinced that Leon's power was of the Peak Almighty State. Neither of them—not even in their wildest dreams—would imagine that Leon's power attained the Semi-Saint State! It was no wonder Leo
"I'm going to kill you, you twat! Take this! Of the Advanced Power Class—the Soul-Piercing Claw!" Central Boss, too, recognized the opportunity of defeating Leon once and for all and quickly altered his strategy, adopting a position of offense now. Instead of dodging Leon, he unleashed a powerful attack, one that belonged to the Advanced Power Class—the Soul-Piercing Claw!A sinister black cloud of mist gathered between his fingertips, congealing momentarily before hurtling straight toward Leon at breakneck speed!He was determined to give Leon a taste of his own medicine!"Good one!" Leon shouted, without so much as a flicker of fear on his face. He wanted nothing more than to end this battle as soon as possible, so even when he realized the Grand Apostles were coming at him from behind, he made no move to dodge them at all. With the thundering crunch, Leon's Earthly Plunder made contact with the Soul-Piercing Claw, erupting into a thunderous explosion of power and energy. Leon c
"What?""How can this possibly be?"No one, not even the Micahs or both Howser and Isaac, could believe their eyes! Just a few seconds ago, they were all certain that Leon would meet his end—there was no doubt about it!And yet Leon came out of it unscathed, after using his flesh to counter the attack from the Grand Apostles! There was not so much as a hair out of place on his head!One could only imagine their utter disbelief at this!However, their shock only lasted a few moments. Most of the people present there were master fighters—the best among the best of the Central Region, and so it did not take them long to figure out what happened. The most likely explanation for this was that Leon somehow obtained an Almighty Weapon—one of the Saint State, which would help defend him against attacks of the Saint State and below!There was no other possible way Leon could have pulled this off otherwise!"How the tables have turned! I believe it is my turn now! Take this—Hurricane Br
"Not so fast! You can run, but you can't hide!" Leon caught sight of him making his sneaky escape and quickly swallowed a Spirit Nurturing Pill to replenish his spiritual energy just in time. With his renewed energy, he once again employed his Phantom Steps and bounded lithely toward Central Boss at breakneck speed. However, he paused just halfway there, as though something occurred to him, and reached into his coat, shouting, "Central Boss, take this!"With a swipe, he sent three small knives soaring through the air, their blades glinting maliciously as they pierced through the air and pummeled straight toward Central Boss, the tips of their blades aimed precariously at the square of his back!"Oh no!" Central Boss risked a quick look behind him when he sensed the knives behind him. His first instinct, upon seeing the knives bearing down on him, was to land on the ground to dodge them, but he knew that once his feet were back on the ground, Leon would be hot on his heels, and he
Leon, however, ignored their blatant shock and instead made his way to Howser and Isaac. "Mr. Janson, may I ask you for a favor?" he said, smiling with such kindness that it came as a stark contrast to the dark, malicious scowl on his face when facing Central Boss."Of course, Mr. Wolf. Please let us know how we may assist you!" Howser said, a look of sheer respect on his face. The martial world always bowed down to the strongest. The Micahs and the Jansons were among the four most powerful families in the Central Region, and yet Leon single-handedly defeated so many of the Micahs, rendering Central Boss so frightened that he made a hurried escape. This was a strong indicator of just how powerful Leon was, and neither Howser nor Isaac dared to underestimate him. As stunned as they were initially, they were both now utterly in awe of him and were glad to be of service to him. "Well, the thing is, there are so many members of the Micah family that I can't possibly tackle them all
"Grandpa, you're finally here!" Howser was overjoyed to see his grandfather and immediately approached him. "Howser, didn't you call me here for a rescue mission? What, what happened here?" Percival was in utter disbelief when he arrived at the scene. Howser sent Severin back to warn Percival of the imminent danger in hopes that he would lead the Jansons over to aid Leon, but who would have thought Leon perfectly capable of taking on the Micahs all by himself? He did not need Percival's help at all, and this was evident in the absolute chaos and disarray that the place was left in, as well as Leon's striking absence from the scene.Percival did not expect this at all, and he struggled to understand what happened. "Grandpa, it turns out that Mr. Wolf is far more powerful than I ever could've imagined. Not only did the Micahs fail to take him down, but he single-handedly managed to defeat all of them," Howser replied, looking rather sheepish, then proceeded to explain everything t
"Who's out there?" Wulfric overheard the scuffling outside his door and immediately put down the books which he was burying his head in just a few seconds prior. He glanced sharply in the direction of the door, just in time to see Central Boss tumbling into his house, looking alarmed."It is I, Master Brahma…" Central Boss said, hastily disguising his nervousness and instead bowing low to show his respect towards Wulfric. "It's you, Central Boss! What brings you here all of a sudden?" Wulfric replied, his brows furrowed in slight annoyance. Central Boss was one of his clones that he spent decades nurturing, and was usually in charge of overseeing his other subordinates while they helped him get his hands on the Martial Techniques and Power Methods he needed. With Central Boss' help, he managed to evade the Dragon Corps' capture all these years, providing an alias that would rid the Chanters of any suspicion of criminal activity.Because of this, he also rarely reached out to Cent
"Mm, okay."Upon hearing Wulfric's agreement, Central Boss immediately felt much more at ease. As a clone of Brahma, he was quite familiar with Wulfric's situation and knew that Wulfric's power level already reached the super state of Saint State!Although Leon was very strong, after the two fights, he already saw that Leon's power level was only at The Semi-Saint State at most, which was still quite some distance from the legendary Saint State.Thus, he was sure that with Wulfric's power level in The Saint State, he would be able to kill Leon and help avenge him!"Oh, by the way, your power level is a bit too low and you have not yet reached the true Semi-Saint State! In the next two days, I'll find a way to help you level up and break through to The Semi-Saint State! After I get rid of Leon, you should be able to rise again and rebuild your family with your strength," said Wulfric after some thought.Upon hearing this, Central Boss was overjoyed and quickly thanked Wulfric respe
