However, Cynthia was too distant and he could not rely on their friendship alone. Once Cynthia left the city, it would only be more difficult for him to strike a deal.

"Miss Shear, enjoy. I need to run to the washroom," Leonard said, before walking out of the room.

As soon as he faced his back at the three, his smile dropped.

The partnership with Cynthion Group meant the world to him as it determined if he would be able to rise to a position of power within his family.

He was an ambitious man with a thirst for power and he refused to get his chance to escape.

He had to make sure that she agreed to the partnership before Cynthia left Seacove City, no matter the cost.

Once Leonard left, Sandra turned to look at Cynthia hesitantly. "Cynthia, Leonard wants to work with Cynthion Group. If it's possible, please agree to it for my sake."

Leonard was her boyfriend and seeing how desperate he was to work with Cynthion Group, Sandra decided to speak to Cynthia in his place.

    The Panax was extremely important to Leon and a partnership in exchange meant nothing. As far as the disrespect Leonard showed him so far, Leon was not as narrow as to hold a grudge against him over such a thing."Um," Sandra shot a confused look at Cynthia.Since Leon introduced himself as an assistant, Sandra would need Cynthia's, instead of Leon's approval on it."Yeah. What Leon said. If Mister Hines can get us the Panax, I'll agree to the partnership." Cynthia nodded."Okay. It's a deal, then," Sandra said with a relieved smile.Just then, the door was pushed open and Leonard returned to the room."Sandra, what are you talking about? You seem so happy," he asked gently."Cynthia came to Seacove City for the five-hundred-year-old Panax to be sold in the auction. She already agreed that if you manage to help her get to it, she will agree on partnering with you," Sandra explained."Oh, I see." Leonard was slightly surprised."Leonard, your family has been close with the Powe

    "Mister Hines, thank you for showing us around today." Leon smiled politely and raised his glass.Both Cynthia and Sandra were young women who just graduated from college. Neither of them had the habit of drinking, so they were drinking juice instead.The four raised their glasses and cheered.Seeing how Cynthia finished the juice in her glass, Leonard's eyes lit up slyly.They drank a few more glasses under Leonard's lead and Leon soon noticed that something was not right. He glanced at Cynthia's glass and came to a realization."Cynthia, show me your glass," he said as an ominous feeling took over him."What's wrong?" Confused, Cynthia handed Leon her glass.Leon took the glass and sniffed the juice remaining inside, his expression darkening as he did. He jumped into his feet and splashed the drink onto Leonard.Unable to react in time, the juice landed on Leonard's head and all over his clothes."Leon, what are you doing?" Cynthia gaped.Sandra, too, was shocked and hurrie

    Cynthia's expression darkened as she noticed that her strength was draining from her body.Seeing how he was exposed, Leonard decided there was no point in hiding and confessed with a smile, "He's right. I drugged the juice!""Why you! How dare you?!" Furious, Cynthia tried to get up but was too weak to do so.Leonard ignored her glare and turned to study Leon with confusion. "I'm curious as to how you know the drinks were drugged with Jimsonweed!""I don't mind telling you. I know medicine and I caught onto the scent of Jimsonweed when I took a whiff of the juice," Leon said calmly."I see." Leonard was slightly impressed that a mere assistant would know medicine."Leonard, what's the meaning of this? Why would you do this?" Sandra flushed and questioned angrily. She trusted Leonard and defended him, only to be proven wrong. She could not understand what would prompt Leonard to do such a thing."It's simple. I just want to know with certainty that I will get the deal to work wi

    Leonard burst out laughing as he scanned Cynthia sophisticated features and enticing curves smugly.Ever since the first moment, he laid eyes on Cynthia, he was captured by her beauty and could not help the urge to make her his. The reason he drugged Cynthia was not simply because he wanted to work with Cynthion Group, but also to satisfy his lust."You! You have no shame!" Cynthia roared.Leon remained composed. "Leonard, Cynthia is Miss Doyle's best friend and you're trying to sleep with her? Aren't you worried that Miss Doyle would be upset?"Leonard stilled and realized that he went too far, but the situation escalated to the point where there was no going back."So what? The Doyles rely heavily on the Hines in their businesses. So what if Sandra knows? Does she have the guts to fight me?" Leonard sneered."Leonard, you bast*rd!" Sandra flushed in rage.Leonard was always a gentleman to her and she never expected him to be such a despicable man. However, he was right about t

    "Miss Shear, you have forgotten that this is Seacove City, not Springfield City! It doesn't matter how powerful your family is or how many martial artists you have at your disposal, you can't do anything to me here!" Leonard chuckled smugly.He had a whole plan ahead to make Cynthia his and take photos and videos of her in compromising positions so that he could blackmail her into making him the partner of Cynthion Group. With the videos and photos in hand, he would not have to fear retaliation from Cynthia and could have her wrapped around his fingers.Cynthia would become his prisoner and would never be able to escape his control."You bast*rd!" Cynthia shivered in despair."Leonard, you monster! If you dare to lay your hands on Cynthia, I'll make you pay for it!" Sandra glared at him.As a lady of the elite community, she saw plenty of unspeakable acts and if Leonard was only sleeping around or keeping a lover, she would have turned a blind eye to it; but Cynthia was her best

    Leonard picked up his cup to sip on his tea with contempt in his eyes.The Hines was one of the most powerful families in Seacove City and the bodyguards they hired were all skilled fighters that could quickly destroy ordinary people.In Leonard's perspective, a mere assistant like Leon could not possibly be able to stand a chance against the bodyguards."Baam! Baam! Baam!"Leon darted forward, throwing his punches at an unstoppable speed. Within a blink of an eye, all four bodyguards were on the ground.Leonard's jaw dropped and he came close to spitting the tea out. He never imagined that an ordinary man like Leon would be able to defeat his bodyguards with such ease."Brat, so you can fight. It's no wonder that you were all confident just now! You're no match for me, though!" Leonard sneered as his true energy oozed off of his body.Leon did not show any true energy in his attacks earlier, so Leonard assumed that Leon was only trained in external power and as a member of a po

    Cynthia roared, but was interrupted by Leon before she could finish her sentence."Cynthia, don't worry. He's just at the Intermediate Innate State. I'm not even worried!" Leon said."How arrogant! If you have a death wish, I'll let you have it! Take this!" Provoked by Leon's contempt, Leonard launched a strong punch at Leon's face."You're the one with a death wish!" Leon snorted, ignoring his punch and striking Leonard's chest instead."Leon, you idiot! Dodge!" Cynthia's eyes widened as her heart sank.She knew that Leon was not on the same level as Leonard and Leon's refusal to dodge the punch was a suicide attempt to defeat Leonard by risking his life. At that very moment, she realized that perhaps Leon knew he could never defeat Leonard and was risking his life to protect her.She desperately wished that she could run over to take the punch in Leon's place, but under the effect of Jimsonweed, she could not move at all and could only watch as Leonard's fist charged toward Leo

    Since they were not in Springfield City, she decided that it would not matter for her to tell Leonard the truth."What?" Leonard gaped in disbelief. Though it was hard to believe, Cynthia had no reason to lie to her. "It's no wonder that you refuse to give me an answer on whether you want to work together. So this kid has been the one who gets to make the call all along!"Leonard finally realized how foolish he was to fawn over Cynthia, while he did nothing to conceal his contempt for Leon."That's right. Out of my respect for Sandra, Leon and I have reached a consensus to work with you and he has promised to honor the deal as long as you try your best to help us get to the Panax. Not only are you not grateful for it, but you've also plotted and done unspeakable things to get your way!" Cynthia glared at Leonard, feeling glad at the same time that they managed to see who Leonard truly was, or Cynthion Group might suffer for partnering with someone so despicable."I-" All strength d

    "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
