"Leon?" Janice finally remembered how she used Leon earlier."Mom, you misunderstood. Leon's just my good friend. He's not my boyfriend. I just used him to act as my boyfriend to stop the engagement just now," Janice smiled awkwardly."What? He's not your boyfriend?" Leanne felt like she was struck by lightning. Her smile immediately froze on her face."Mom, what happened to you?" Janice asked strangely. "No, that's impossible! He admitted he was your boyfriend just now. How could he be pretending?!" Leanne shook her head, unable to accept that cruel truth. "Didn't I say that he was just playing along with me? He's not my boyfriend," Janice explained.Seeing as her daughter did not seem to be lying Leanne's mood sank, unable to accept it."Janice, Don't be stupid! It doesn't matter if Leon is your boyfriend or not. He didn't make a clear rejection just now. It means that he should be somewhat interested in you. It's fine if he's not your boyfriend right now. You have to seize
"N-nothing…" Janice blushed a little, not daring to face Leon.Back then, she would occasionally be quite close to Leon, but she never felt anything wrong about it.At that moment, her mother, cousin, and everyone else tried to get her together with Leon. She could not help but feel a bit different.Leon sat so close to her. She could even feel the strong sense of manliness coming from Leon.It caused her heart to beat erratically."Leon, we were just talking about you," Leanne said.Even though she said so many nasty things about Leon earlier, Leon did not seem to have taken them to heart. He did not seem to have any intentions of pursuing the matter.It caused her to feel much calmer. At the same time, she approved of Leon's character even more. She started to feel like a mother-in-law looking at her son-in-law."What about me?" Leon was curious."Leon, do you have a girlfriend right now?" Leanne asked.Seeing as her daughter did not seem to be moving at all, she started to
Leanne was quite unhappy as she spoke. "Yes, your mother's right. Leon is quite a good man," Horace nodded, approving of Leon.Leon was powerful, but he was not arrogant like Theodore. Instead, he was humble and well-mannered.That was a good man who was worthy of his daughter's future!"Mom, dad, can you please change the topic?" Janice's head hurt.After coming back from the hotel, her mother was in her face the whole time, causing her a lot of grief."What kind of attitude is this?! You just refuse to listen no matter what I say, are you trying to frustrate me to death?" Leanne said angrily."Whatever, I'm going to take a walk in the park," Janice could not stand her mother at that moment and found an excuse to go out to calm down.She was pushed too hard by her mother, and her thoughts were affected somewhat.She suddenly felt like she could possibly listen to her mother's suggestion and try things out with Leon for a bit.Even though her heart lacked a certain something
Horace was stunned. He knew his wife couldn't have lied, and he began to worry as well."Whoever did it, let's get this reported to the police!" Leanne quickly pulled out her phone and prepared to call the cops."No, we can't tell the police!" In a panic, Horace stopped Leanne."How come we can't call the cops? Your daughter is already missing. Every minute brings a new danger. Are you going to stand by and watch your daughter suffer?" Leanne was furious. She nearly slapped Horace across the face."Leanne, please calm down!""If the other side is a bunch of violent thugs, Janice will be even more in danger if we call the cops and scare them!" Horace explained quickly.He was a man in the end, and he was more calm than Leanne at the time. He gave it some more thought."That…"Leanne was astounded. Her husband was being reasonable, she knew.In many films and dramas, once the kidnappers had their target, they would kill the hostage if the police were involved and they had no oth
Furthermore, he never had any relatives or friends as an orphan. Janice was like family to him!In his heart, Janice's position was second only to Iris's!If Janice was in danger, there was no way he could allow Janice to get hurt, no matter the price he had to pay!After hanging up, Leon had a dark look on his face. Iris could not help but ask, "Leon, did something happen?""One of my best friends just got kidnapped," Leon said angrily before he explained everything.After that, he took a deep breath to try and calm himself down, "Iris, I need the Youngs to help me with this. I hope you can use your connections to help me look for those thugs.""Alright, it's not a problem. I'll make the arrangements," Iris nodded before she left with Louisa.After that, Leon gave Harvey, Fane, and Mason a call, asking them to help look for the thugs.To save Janice, he practically used everything he could.The Youngs and the Shears were massive forces who had incredible influence, while Fane
"I don't mind if you want to play around a bit, but you'd better clean up after yourself. Don't leave any evidence. If the police are alerted, it won't do us any good!" Xander did not forget to say.They lived in a lawful society, and the internet and media were incredibly quick to expose anything. Even the four great families and the two kings were not able to stop everything!There was no way Xander and Brody could either!If Brody ended up leaving any evidence because of his lust, then the results would be disastrous!"Don't worry, I've already thought of everything. There won't be any evidence…" Brody slapped his chest in guarantee before he told Xander his plan."Good idea! I won't disturb you then. Go and enjoy yourself!" Xander laughed as he shot Brody a thumbs-up before he got up to leave the living room.Leon was the only target the Sullivans were paying him for.As for Janice, he did not care how Brody wanted to deal with her!It was fine as long as it did not ruin
"You are a useless piece of trash!" Brody laughed excitedly.He never expected that Janice would be a virgin just like Marilyn.Was that not just great for Brody? It was obvious how excited he was!"I'm not Leon's girl…" Janice wanted to say that she was not Leon's girlfriend.However, she quickly remembered that she said that she was Leon's girlfriend when they met Brody and Marilyn at the mall.If she denied it, Brody would not believe her.Furthermore, the situation already escalated so much. There was no reason for her to deny it at all."Leon, I've already taken your wife's virginity, now, I'm about to take your girlfriends! Let's see how you take that! You'll never be able to do anything in front of me anymore!" Brody laughed in an incredibly happy manner!He had deep grudges against Leon. He tried to cause Leon trouble so many times but fell to Leon every time.He hated Leon to the core, and wanted nothing more than to deal with Leon!The chance was finally there!H
He heard about secret rooms like those in foreign news all the time!Of course, if Janice was not willing to cooperate, and tried to cause trouble, he did not mind burying Janice with Leon!"Y-you're planning a murder!" Janice shouted.Even though she did not know what Brody's plan was, she could tell what Brody meant.If she was willing to be Brody's toy, Brody would think about sparing her life.Otherwise, she would die with Leon!"So what? So many people go missing and are never found. It's a common fixture in the news. Leon's just an orphan with nothing to his name. He's not even a regular person. Even if he dies, nothing will happen!" Brody smiled snidely."You…""I won't let you get what you want!" Janice was shocked and angered. She suddenly stood up and charged at Brody.Bang! Brody was not able to react in time and fell to the ground.Janice's head rammed right onto his nose, causing his nose to bleed.At that moment, Janice tried to run to the door.Initially, J
"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
