Ariel gaped at this. She initially wanted to help Leon win back Iris's heart out of kindness, but she never thought Leon would reject her outright!

"What happened in the past should stay in the past. Since she no longer trusts me, there's no point in me begging her to change her mind. The fact that she has mistrusted me once means that there likely will be a second, third, and God knows how many times.

"Even if you helped me win her back this time, what will happen in the future? What if she still chooses to mistrust me if something else happens down the line? Am I supposed to beg for her to change her mind again and again?" Leon said solemnly.

He could not help recalling the term he came across on the internet recently—the word, simp, would perfectly describe someone like him if he were to beg for Iris's forgiveness over and over.

Besides, Iris was not the only one who mistrusted him, even Elder Young and Gilbert were the same.

If he were to put down his ego and beg for Ir

    Louisa's intentions were clear: she wanted to help Leon win Iris's heart back. "There's no need for that, but I appreciate your help," Leon rejected her. "Why not?" Louisa was astounded by this. The fact that Leon even managed to win Iris's heart in the first place could be chalked up to her doing, and she knew just how much Leon loved Iris—she did not understand why he was willing to give up on her just like this. "This is far more complicated than you think. Not only does your cousin mistrust me, but your grandfather and uncle as well. All in all, I think it's better if I remain on my own to clear my head, and maybe we can see what happens," Leon replied. "Are you worried that my grandfather and uncle will stop you?" Louisa fell silent after asking this. She knew that Leon was right; even if he managed to win Iris's heart, that did not guarantee that Elder Young and gilbert would change their minds. "Well, whatever it is, Lewd, I still think you're the perfect man for my

    Cynthia was a little displeased to see Leon on the phone. "Are you going out again, Leon?" "Yes, Fane wants to see me," Leon muttered sheepishly. He only began working for Cynthia for two days and spent both of those days out, it was no wonder Cynthia was disapproving of this. "Fane again?" Cynthia asked dubiously as she gave Leon a once-over. "Leon, have you possibly changed your sexual orientation after your heartbreak?" "Change my sexual orientation," Leon froze and immediately realized what Cynthia was referring to. "Cynthia, please don't take things the wrong way. I'm perfectly straight!" he said nonchalantly, but the truth was, he could not help feeling repulsed by the thought of this. "That's good to hear! I don't wish to have fallen for a man with strange fetishes like this!" Cynthia said, giving him a mischievous grin. Leon rolled his eyes at this. Knowing that Cynthia was pulling his leg, he took no notice of this and instead went downstairs after grabbing his c

    "Mister Wolf, excuse my crudeness, but I hear from Snow and Fane that you have already attained the Peak Innate State. Judging by how young you are, the only explanation as to how you could've achieved that is you must've learned your skills from someone far more powerful. Can I know who that is?" Vincent asked, determined to get to the bottom of this. "Um," A sheepish look crossed Leon's face. He could never reveal the truth to Vincent, especially not since it was the biggest secret he had to keep. Snow could tell how reluctant Leon was to answer this and thus quickly came to his rescue. "Father, why are you asking so many questions? Are you interviewing him?" "Um, I guess you're right. It was inappropriate of me to do so." Vincent smiled, but the truth was, he was feeling a little displeased by this. Leon was their guest, and usually, he did not like placing his guests in such awkward positions, but this was different. Fane boasted to him about Leon's talent and powers the

    "I'm guessing it must be because of her poor health," Miss Woods answered earnestly. "I think so too." Vincent sighed with a look of despair. His wife was always, and on top of that, she stuck with him through poverty while he was trying to make a name for himself in the Gangster World, and this predisposed to her poor health in later life. This was made even worse by her giving birth to their children, and gradually, her health deteriorated to a point where she frequently got sick and had to spend months in bed at a time. Vincent sought out many doctors and spent a lot of money and effort trying to treat his wife's condition to no avail. On the contrary, Gloria's health deteriorated over the last two years, and she occasionally would collapse on even the mildest exertion. This was not good at all! Vincent despaired at this, but there was nothing much he could do. "Snow, Fane, please don't worry. Missus Poole has fainted because of the cold forces that have invaded her

    "Oh, this is Mister Wolf, a friend of Fane's," Vincent explained. "Is he a doctor?" Doctor Chase asked, frowning. Every time Gloria fell sick, Vincent would give him a hefty bonus if he successfully nursed her back to health; if Leon was also a doctor, this would deprive him of the monetary reward that rightfully belonged to him! "Um," Vincent was unsure of this too and instinctively cast Leon a questioning glance. "I'm not a doctor," Leon answered, shaking his head. "Not a doctor?" Vincent, Fane, and Snow were shocked by this, especially Vincent. He already deduced that Leon was probably mediocre at best, but now, after hearing Leon admit that he was not a doctor, he could not help doubting Leon's capabilities even more! Doctor Chase chuckled at this. "Mister Poole, this man isn't even a doctor, how can you simply allow him to treat a patient? Who will bear the responsibility if something bad happens?" "I-" vincent's face fell at this. The truth was, he was so desperate

    "I think it'd be better if he took over!" Vincent said calmly. Even though he did not trust Leon's capabilities, he still tried to be as polite as he could, considering Leon was their guest and he was doing this out of kindness. "But-" Leon was hesitant. "No but's! You should step away, lest you get in the way of Doctor Chase's job!" Vincent said, waving his hand in dismissal. He was beginning to become a little impatient now. "Oh, alright." Leon sighed and had no choice but to step down and let Doctor Chase take over, who immediately brought out a lot of high-tech medical equipment and proceeded to perform an extensive examination on Gloria. "Since you're busy, Mister Poole, I won't take up more of your time. I shall leave now," Leon said, giving Vincent a polite bow. After all, there was no point in him staying any longer, considering Vincent did not even seem to believe in his abilities. "Don't! it's such a rare occasion to have you come to visit, Leon, it would be

    "Huh? How can this be?" Doctor Chase could not believe this. He continued to try a few more times, but Gloria did not stir. "What's going on, Doctor Chase? Why isn't my wife waking up?" Vincent asked anxiously. "This seems to be far more serious than her previous attacks," a solemn expression crossed Doctor Chase's face. In the past, he could easily wake Gloria up with just a few simple maneuvers, but now, despite trying them multiple times, there was no sign of Gloria waking at all. One did not need to be a genius to figure out this was far more serious than what happened in the past! Vincent grew even more panicked at this. "What should we do now, Doctor Chase?" "Don't worry, Mister Poole. I have one last trick up my sleeve; I'm afraid we have to give her a resuscitation shot," Doctor Chase replied hesitantly. A resuscitation shot was a type of injection given to awaken comatose patients, but it came with side effects that would affect each individual differently based

    Doctor Chase sneered at this. "Mister Poole, I'm not well versed in conventional medicine, so I'm not sure how to explain this, but please believe me; Missus Poole's condition is not suitable to receive a resuscitation shot at all!" Leon turned to stare at Vincent earnestly. Leon spent the last couple of months helping treat various disorders and diseases, thus he managed to gain some experience in medicine, which compelled him to think that giving Gloria a resuscitation shot would likely worsen her condition and even cost her life! "You! Mister Poole, this man's trying to get in my way. Please get him out of here so I can treat Missus Poole appropriately!" Doctor Chase shouted. "Please get out, Mister Wolf! I was tolerating you considering you're a guest in my home, but I hope you know where to draw the line!" Vincent, too, was irritated by Leon's constant meddling. If Leon were able to vocalize his concerns properly, perhaps he would consider trusting him, but he could not

    "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
