"Who's that guy? Could he be Miss Shear's boyfriend?""Surely not? Miss Shear is one of the four most beautiful women in Springfield City and is even the gem of the Shears. With who she is, her having a boyfriend would probably have already been spread around the whole of Springfield City. We've never even heard of it before.""Yes, that's right. I think that guy's probably Miss Shear's new assistant or secretary…"…Looking at Leon and Cynthia slowly leaving, everyone started to talk about it. In the end, a lot of them thought that Leon was just Cynthia's new assistant or secretary, so they were much calmer.In the president's office, Cynthia had a few employees move a table over, getting Leon to sit next to her. The two of them sat close together, making it easier to work with each other.Once the employees left, only Leon and Cynthia were left in the office."Cynthia, you can just arrange for a private office for me. Why are you making us sit together?" Leon asked curiously.
"Cynthia, thank you." Leon looked at Cynthia in appreciation.He was not a rock. Cynthia was doing everything for his sake. It touched him quite a bit."Let's go, I'll bring you around the workshop," Cynthia let out a sweet smile as she pulled at Leon's arm and exited the office.Leon was a bit unused to Cynthia's intimate actions.However, thinking about how Cynthia was incredibly sincere and straightforward, on top of the fact that Cynthia was doing everything she could to help him, she allowed her to do as she pleased.Cynthion was a pharmaceutical company that primarily produced common medicines.The workshop mainly dealt with those.Leon already wrote down a few unique pills through his knowledge of the company.With those pills, on top of the Energy Nurturing Pills that were helping the company bolster its reputation, their production was rapidly increasing.In the future, Cynthion might not need to take that long to establish itself in the pharmaceutical world of Spring
Leon's heart was beating rapidly. He was so nervous that his palms were sweating. His heart almost jumped out of his throat.He was a very normal, hot-blooded man. There was no way he could bear that temptation.At that moment, he wanted nothing more than to toy with Cynthia's feet with his hands, but his rationality stopped him."What's so inappropriate about it? You said you would compensate me. Are you going to go against your own words?" Cynthia said with a red face.In truth, it was not just Leon who was nervous. She was even more nervous and felt very embarrassed as well. She was even tempted to just give up.However, for the sake of getting closer to Leon and finding a place in his heart quickly, she clenched her teeth and held firm."I-" Leon gulped.He did want to pay Cynthia back for her hard work, but that compensation was just too alluring. It did not seem like compensation at all. He felt rewarded instead."Cynthia, men, and women have boundaries. Shouldn't you pic
Cynthia kept on making noises.Leon's mind felt like it was going to explode. He felt like he was about to go crazy.With the sounds coming from Cynthia and the sensations coming from his hands, he could feel his heart getting incredibly tempted.Suddenly, he felt incredibly hot-blooded. He was tempted beyond belief.At that moment, a ring could be heard. Leon immediately snapped back to reality.That phone call came at just the right time!Leon immediately put Cynthia's legs on the floor before he answered the phone.Once Leon was done with the call, Cynthia could not help but ask him curiously, "Leon, who was that?""Oh, it's Fane. He needs my help."Leon gave a brief explanation, "Cynthia, I'll go over to see what he needs. I'll leave the company to you.""You weren't even done with the massage yet," Cynthia said unhappily.It was a rare chance to get closer to Leon. Of course, she was not willing to see Leon leave in the middle of it.However, she knew that Leon was qui
The battle naturally ended up falling to Fane and Jacob.Fane wanted Leon's help to deal with Jacob."So that's what's happening!" Leon said in realization. After that, he asked, "Mister Poole, how do you want me to help you?""Jacob and I have an agreement. To stop this thing from going too far, we plan on having a friendly match to resolve this conflict.""We have Xander's territories on the line. Whoever wins the matches will get the territories," Fane explained.As long as he won, Mason would get all the territories.If Jacob won instead, then Xander's territories would be returned to the Northern King."Forgive me for being straightforward, but there are so many experts under your father. Can't you just get a few from him to help you?" Leon asked curiously."It's not that simple. My father's someone special. Both he nor the Northern King can't take any actions themselves. That's why they left it to us. This is just a fight between the younger generation. We'll rely on our
"Mister Wolf, the tournament will be this evening. With you around, we'll win!" Fane said excitedly. He looked incredibly happy.After that, Fane talked to Leon about the match. When it was about time, a few of them drove right to the venue.They were at a resort on the outskirts of the city. It was one of the properties under the Southern King.For the match, Fane already cleared out the place. They were not doing any business for the moment.When Fane and Leon arrived, there were already various luxury cars and sports cars around. There were Maybachs, BMWs, Jaguars, and the like. The cars were all more flashy than the last.It was full of people around them. Most of them were young men and women of the upper society in Springfield City.Some of them were even Fane's good friends and followers, all there to cheer him on.There were also some competitors of the Pooles who were there to laugh at him.However, when it came to some of the truly powerful families, including the one
It was an incredibly beautiful woman who was about twenty-eight years old. She had a tall and glamorous figure, at had a pair of fashionable shades on.She wore a full black outfit that hugged her figure, making her devilish figure stand out.She was Fane's sister, Snow Poole.Snow was also one of the four great beauties of Springfield City, ranked in third place. She had an incredibly sexy aura around her, and she had a natural way of attracting looks from everyone. She was the sexiest woman in the eyes of many men. Her appearance quickly caused a stir in the crowd.Some of the men quickly looked at her with fiery and obsessed gazes. They wanted nothing more than to make that sexy woman their own.Even Leon, who was already used to seeing absolutely beautiful women, could not help but feel amazed. He felt like he looked at a woman who was gorgeous and cold!Snow was the type who was incredibly gorgeous and unique at the same time. She had the charm and allure of a mature woman
It caused Leon and Fane to feel a bit awkward."Snow, don't speak nonsense. Leon's a Supreme Master! It's just that he keeps a low profile, so not many people have heard of him," Fane hurriedly explained."What? He's a Supreme Master? How's that possible?!" Snow was shocked. She quickly looked at Leon again, and was even more sure that Leon was a scammer!The martial arts circle in Springfield City was not particularly big.Among the youth, the two most excellent characters were Harvey and Anson.Leon was young. If he was a Supreme Master, he would be even more famous than both of them. There was no way he would be so unknown!"That's right, that's impossible!" Landry and the others were shocked as well.They thought the same as Snow. None of them felt like Leon could be a Supreme Master!It was not realistic at all!"Miss Poole, what Mister Wolf said is true. I can assure you, Mister Wolf is a Supreme Master!" Mason said."Shut up! I can tell what's real or not. You have no
"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
