Looking at Iris slowly disappearing, Daisy let out a pleased smile.The next day was a Saturday, so it was the weekend.In the morning, Leon suddenly got a call from Ariel saying that she had something very important to talk to him about. After that, she invited him to meet at a high-end cafe in the suburbs.At Star Cafe, Leon had hurried over on his motorcycle. Right as he stopped his motorcycle, the door of a red Maserati next to him suddenly opened, almost knocking him over.Right after that, a fashionable, beautiful woman with a nice figure walked out of the car with a snide expression."Idiot, watch where you're going! Do you even know how to park? Do you think you can afford the repairs if you hit me?!" The young woman barked at Leon, looking at the motorcycle Leon was riding in disdain.Leon was shocked as she suddenly recalled Ariel's beautiful looks.The first time he met Ariel, the situation was very similar to this one.Ariel's door had almost knocked him over, but s
"I know it's a bad choice too…" "I tried to advise her so many times yesterday, but she didn't want to listen. She insisted on selling Elegante. Nothing I said worked…"Ariel looked very frustrated."That…" Leon's mood sank.He knew that the Young Group had fallen to that level mainly because Elder Young had fallen ill.Yet, Iris would rather sell Elegante than ask him to cure Elder Young.It was obvious how he would feel!"Leon, even though you've already broken up with Iris, you were still her boyfriend before. The two of you had feelings for each other. I hope you can give Iris some advice. Maybe she'll change her mind!" Ariel revealed the reason she came over, hopefully."Impossible! You're her best friend, but even you couldn't sway her. What could an ex-boyfriend like me do?" Leon said."That's not necessarily true! Ever since Iris broke up with you, she'd been very sad. She's been particularly dispirited lately and is both miserable and in a lot of pain. I can tell tha
"If it's possible, I plan on buying Elegante!" Leon said after some hesitation.Even though he acted like he did not care about Iris, he was actually still very concerned for her.Since Iris was unwilling to see him, he would have to figure out a way to buy Elegante Group to help Iris in secret.That was the only thing he could do for the woman he loved at that moment!No matter how Iris and the Youngs treated him before, he just wanted to ensure he had no regrets!"What? Don't joke around! Elegante's market price can go as high as 650 million. How could you get the money to do that?" Ariel was shocked, not believing her ears."That… I can't give you a clear answer right now, but I'll do my best!" Leon said somewhat awkwardly.Cynthion Group's market value at that moment was between 650 to 780 million, but it was shared between him and Cynthia. Even if he sold all his shares, he would not be able to buy Elegante!He would need to discuss things with Cynthia before he could make
She had first bumped into an idiot outside the cafe that almost ran into her car, and then the wretch spilled coffee on her!"I-I don't have the money…"The employee paled, not knowing what to do."That's your own problem! I don't care how you do it, but you have to pay me back for my losses today. I won't accept anything less!" the arrogant woman said."But, you were the one who bumped into me, you can't completely blame me…" The employee was in such a panic that she almost cried."You're still trying to twist the truth?!" The arrogant woman was furious as she sent another slap over.Leon was completely stunned at everything that was happening. Before he could even do anything, a figure walked past him. Ariel had already started to walk over.Since everything had happened behind Leon initially, he had not seen what happened and did not know who was to blame.However, Ariel had been facing the arrogant woman. She saw very clearly that the woman was the one who bumped into the e
Ever since she got to know Leon, the both of them had gone through a lot. She knew that Leon's martial arts were quite good. He was her favorite type of man, a strong hero.With Leon by her side, she felt a sense of security."Brat, who are you? Let me go!" Wilfred looked at Leon in shock and anger. After that, he pulled his arm back, trying to escape Leon's grasp.However, Leon's grip was very strong. It felt like Leon was going to shatter his arm. No matter how hard he pulled, he could not escape Leon's grasp!"It's you!" The arrogant woman got up from the ground, immediately recognizing Leon. "Maisie, you know this guy? Who is he?" Wilfred was surprised. He looked at Leon before looking at the woman with uncertainty."I don't know him! He's just an idiot who rides a motorcycle. He almost ran into me outside the cafe!" Maisie said in disdain."So he's a useless ruffian!" Wilfred sniffed.Luxury cars were everywhere in society, and motorcycles were essentially never used an
"My clothes are already ruined, what's there to talk about?!" Maisie sneered."That's not necessarily true! We'll know who's in the wrong after looking at the CCTV footage!" Leon pointed at the cameras on top, unhappy with how the owner was doing things as well.Maisie's expression suddenly darkened.Grover obviously knew what to do in that situation. It was obvious that Maisie had probably knocked over Shirley.However, Wilfred and Maisie were not people she could offend. He quickly made a decision!"The camera is broken. We can't look at the footage!" Grover waved it off and said impatiently."Is that so? It really broke at such a perfect moment!" Ariel scoffed."Stop wasting time! Where are the guards? Catch those three! They're all working together. That wretch even slapped me just now. Make sure you all teach the three of them a lesson. Beat them up until I'm satisfied!" Maisie ordered.Grover hesitated for a moment before he nodded, allowing it.After that, the four guar
"Brat, do you know who Young Master Javner is? He's the heir of Acme Corp! How dare a piece of trash like you try and go against him?!" Grover finally reacted as well.Suddenly everyone started to talk amongst one another, "So that person is the heir of Acme Corp! Acme Corp is one of the biggest companies among the second-tier families of Springfield City. They are rich and powerful. They're not someone anyone can offend!""That's right. This guy actually offended Wilfred. He's done for…"Everyone talked amongst themselves, and quite a few of them shot Leon looks of pity and sympathy.There were also a lot of them who were thankful that they did not rush forward earlier. Otherwise, they would not have been able to do anything against Wilfred!"Acme Corp?"Leon was taken aback, feeling like the name sounded familiar. After thinking about it, he quickly recalled the name.Janice and Ava were former employees at Acme Corp. He had just met the chairman of Acme Corp, Javner, two days
As he said that, Wilfred took out his phone to make some calls."Crap…"Ariel's expression changed at the sight.Acme Group was quite famous in the business world. She had heard of them before and knew that they were not to be messed with.Even though her family was a noted family of craftsmen, their fortunes were incredibly minuscule compared to the Acme Group.As for Leon. She knew that Leon knew martial arts, but she also knew that Leon was just an orphan without anything.Neither she nor Leon had the ability to clash against Acme Corp!"Leon, let's leave!" Ariel pulled at Leon's arm, wanting to leave before Wilfred's men arrived. That way, they might be able to avoid Wilfred's revenge."Why would we leave?"Leon found it strange.Since they decided to help, he would see things through.The female employee was still there. He could not just leave her alone!"Leon, you might not know this, but Acme Corp is rich and powerful. We can't afford to go against them…""We shoul
"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
