"Leave this to me, boss!" Jackson volunteered. He knew that Leon was already at the Peak Supreme State, but he already attained the Semi Overlord State two years ago, and his power was on par with Harold before this! Why would he even take notice of someone like Leon? "Hmm, alright!" Harold was silent for a moment, then agreed. He already crossed paths with Leon at the Youngs' ceremony, and at that time, he could tell that Leon was only at the Peak Supreme State and was yet to attain the Overlord State. There was a significant difference between the Peak Supreme State and the Semi Overlord State, and they were not on the same level at all! Therefore, it would be as easy as ABC for Jackson to defeat him! He did not even need to take Leon on himself—by handing him over to Jackson, this would save him the trouble of getting involved and risking ruining his reputation as the Northern King! "Alright, Jackson taking over from the Northern King is the best option we have!" "That's
If Leon's true power level was not at the Peak Supreme State but at the Intermediate Supreme State instead, they were screwed—Jackson would surely be able to defeat him as easily as swatting a fly, and Leon would stand no chance of escaping at all! "No, I won't leave Iris here by herself!" Leon shook his head and rejected Ruth's suggestion. "What?" Ruth could not believe her ears. She never thought, not even in her wildest dreams, that Leon would still be preoccupied with Iris's safety at a time like this, not when his own life was in peril! "Leon, listen to me. I know you're worried about Iris, but don't worry, I've already texted my grandfather for help, and I'm sure it won't be long until my grandfather and the rest of the Collins' masters arrive. "Besides, Harold and the Youngs have already promised they wouldn't hurt Iris as of now. So the point is, you have to find a way to escape while you can, and when my grandfather arrives, I'll help you save Iris, and the rest!" Ruth
"This is your death sentence, Leon Wolf! Taste my wrath!" with a sneer, Jackson sent out a punch surging in Leon's direction, stirring up dust in its wake. "I gladly welcome it!" Leon knew that his power was no match for Jackson at all, and thus a prolonged battle would not work in his favor. Therefore, he decided to take a gamble and sent out everything he had—he cocked his fist back and sent out his signature Double Attack, rising to the occasion to meet Jackson head-on! Everyone watching this was astounded to see Leon take Jackson on and immediately erupted into a flurry of activity. "Has that man gone insane?" "He's only at the Peak Supreme State and is no match for Jackson at all. Does he have a death wish?" The Youngs were utterly stunned by this and immediately turned to gape at Leon with looks of disbelief. "That idiot!" "Well, it's his death wish!" Harold and the rest snickered and could not help jeering at Leon. All of them knew how powerful Jackson was, and
"Wait, did Leon Wolf just defeat Jackson?""How's this possible?"Everyone watching, including the Youngs, Harold and the rest of the Lowes, and even Ruth were utterly stunned by this!None of them ever thought, not even in their wildest dreams, that a Semi Overlord like Jackson would lose to Leon, not to mention get injured so severely by Leon's attack!One could only imagine the shock!The entire place seemed to fall silent.Pin drop silence."Thank God this worked out," A small smile crossed Leon's face as he sighed in relief. He knew that he was far less powerful than Jackson, and he took the risk to use his famous Double Attack against Jackson.The only reason he defeated Jackson was sheer luck—Jackson was momentarily distracted, which was why his attack managed to catch him off guard and wound him."You twat!" Harold was the first to break out of his stupor. He darted forward, and his entire silhouette moved as fast as lightning as he sped toward Leon, raising his fist p
Harold's realization was too late. Within the blink of an eye, Leon took advantage of the momentum from Harold's attack and sent himself surging through the air, landing smack dab in the middle of the Lowes' territory. "Take this, Jacob!" Leon bellowed as he fixed his sights on Jacob and sent a powerful surge of energy Jacob's way. "Save me, Father," Jacob was utterly terrified at this point. He never thought that Leon would attack him so suddenly and without warning. Not only that, but he only attained the Initial Supreme State and was no match for Leon at all, but he did not want to stand around to find out. Jacob immediately dropped onto his knees in an attempt to evade Leon's attack, but it was too late. "How dare you!" Marco shrieked in horror and sent a burst of energy toward Leon in an attempt to stop him from attacking Jacob. "Losing to me once isn't enough? Get lost!" Leon sneered, then unleashed his Double Attack once more and sent Marco flying through the air.
Leon was astounded by his ability to turn the situation around in his favor! He was, after all, the Northern King, and only a few things could faze him! Besides, Leon wasn't nearly as cunning as he was, and he'd never admit defeat so easily! Now that his son was in Leon's hands, he realized there was no way he could save Jacob, so he immediately shifted his focus and launched an attack directly at Iris! Iris was Leon's girlfriend, and if he could get his hands on her, he and Leon would have hostages against each other, and Leon would surely surrender! "Don't even think about it, Harold! If you even touch her, I'll kill Jacob right then and there!" When Leon saw Harold approaching Iris, the color left his face. His plan was flawless, but Harold was so cunning and deceitful that he refused to let Iris and the others go, resulting in this fatal flaw in his scheme! "If you even touch a hair on Jacob's head, I'll kill Iris right now!" Harold sneered but did not halt his advance
However, Ruth was not the woman Leon loved at all and just his friend, so Harold was not entirely sure if this would work. "How dare you!" the color drained from Leon's face. He never thought Harold would be so ruthless as to capture Ruth instead when Iris was out of his reach! Even though he and the Collins were just business partners, the only reason Ruth landed in Harold's hands was because she tried to save Iris, and there was no way Leon would stand by and watch while Harold attacked her! "Why don't you find out by yourself?" Harold sneered. He could not help feeling relieved when he saw how concerned Leon was over Ruth's safety. "There's no need to scare anyone, Harold!" Ruth did not seem at all afraid and instead remained calm. "If you dare to hurt me, my grandfather and the rest of the Collins will come after you!" "The Collins? Do you think I care? Ruth, you've helped Leon time and time again and crossed me in the process—do you honestly think I, Harold Lowe, will be
"If you dare to hurt my Ruthie, I'll scatter your bones all over this place!" All of a sudden, a loud snarl echoed through the air as two cars screeched to a halt. The car door swung open, and George stepped out of the car, his eyes ablaze with rage and his aura pulsating, followed closely behind by a few of the Collins' master martial artists. "My grandfather's here!" Ruth was overjoyed to see this and immediately, all her despair and sorrow dissipated, but she was not the only one feeling this way—Leon, Iris, and the rest were also delighted to see George arrive, and a glimmer of hope ignited within them. In contrast, the previously triumphant smile froze on Harold's face. "Harold Lowe, how dare you bully and injure my granddaughter!" George's eyes bulged out of his head in sheer rage when he saw that Harold had his hands on Ruth, and he immediately zeroed in on how pale Ruth's face was, as well as the drop of blood clinging onto the corner of her mouth. It was clear she su
