Over the past two years, Willow had taken good care of Sean without a complaint.She never asked Sean for anything.All she wanted was for Sean to get better as soon as possible.Then she made her only request in the past two years.She wanted Sean to marry her.No strings attached, just a simple desire to marry Sean.She wanted to take Sean's last name.Her eyes were determined, and she was sincere.Sean was touched.He should have said yes but hesitated.It was not that he did not want to marry Willow; it was just that he was in no position to make promises.Sean could not predict how the fight with Blaze would play out.Perhaps he would eventually lose to Blaze and even lose his life.Therefore, he dared not make promises easily.He was scared of giving Willow hope and then letting her down.Even if he was confident of beating Blaze, he dared not promise Willow anything.Therefore, the rarely indecisive man was now in a dilemma."Why are you quiet?"Don't you want
Sean did not do anything to Willow.It was not that he was not interested in Willow. He just wanted to settle everything first.Then he would treat Willow right without any worries.He could also take all of Willow without a second thought.Sean gently pulled his arm out.Willow had laid out Sean's clothes for him beside the closet. They were neatly stacked together.Beside it lay a symbol of status—the Guardian Sword and the set of silver needles.Sean moved quickly and put on his clothes without making any noise."Wait for me."Sean walked over to the bedside, slowly crouched down, and gently kissed Willow on the corner of her mouth.Willow stayed asleep all the time. She looked innocent.Sean reached out his hand again and gently pushed Willow's tangled hair away from her forehead. He only watched silently.After nearly a minute, Sean slowly got up and walked out the door.Thud!Sean left the room with a thud of the door closing.It was when Willow opened her eyes slo
They were not in a hurry. All they wanted was to be safe.Therefore, Zander had worked out a relatively safe route the night before.Even if he could not avoid all the cameras perfectly, they could do their best not to give away their whereabouts.Sean sat in the car and turned to look out the window.It was past 5 a.m. and was still dark.The sky had brightened a little.Their car sped along the road without seeing any vehicles or people.As he looked at the street lamps flashing past the car window, Sean had mixed feelings.He took over the small River City in just over a month.Now, they had to leave their homes and travel again.He only hoped he could achieve his goal and get help successfully in Joules Town.After all, it was hard for him to compete with Blaze on his own."Commander, wait a minute. I'm getting off the car to change the license plate."After a short drive, Zander pulled over and pulled a new license plate out of the trunk to cover the old one.He was
Halfway through, Zander slowed down again."Commander, I didn't think this through..."Surely you have plans and someone you want to use?"Zander blushed a little as he spoke.Since Sean said he was coming to Joules Town, Zander had been handling everything.He suddenly realized he had never even asked Sean's advice.He did not ask about Sean's plans or who he was looking for after they arrived.Instead, he went ahead looking for his former subordinate with Sean.It was quite inappropriate."There's no rush."Follow the GPS."Sean waved his hand slightly, not caring about it.He had a plan in mind, of course. He never did anything he was unsure of.However, he knew Zander was loyal and that he wanted to see his former subordinate."Commander, I'm sorry."Your plan matters the most. We'd better not go."I'll come and see them when I have time."Zander said quietly, rubbing his nose.Sean glanced at Zander and understood what was on Zander's mind.There must be a reaso
Zander was in front as he heard Sean's mutter, but he did not inquire.Zander did not speak until Sean pulled himself together and picked up his pace."Commander, there's a fortune teller here."Why don't we have our fortunes told?"Carried away by a whim, Zander suddenly pointed to one of the stalls and said.The man sitting in that booth was a monk and not a shaman.He sat cross-legged silently with his eyes narrowed slightly while others shouted to attract business."What fortune?"Sean glanced and withdrew his gaze."Let's see if our trip will be a success."And whether we can get our revenge."Zander asked somewhat expectantly, rubbing his hands together.However, Sean shook his head slightly in disdain."I never believed in such things."We control our destiny."Zander immediately dismissed his idea as soon as Sean said that."Please stay, sir."Sean did not want to have his fortune told, but the monk stopped Sean when they passed by him.Both Zander and Sean st
Jeffrey was a member of the one hundred thousand personal guards.Sean was his idol and he worshipped him like a god. He had no regrets, even if he had to go through the deadliest battles.He thought he would never see Sean again, but he was excited to meet him again."Save the salute."Sean stepped forward and took Jeffrey's arm."Commander..."We agreed to wait for your return together."But I couldn't wait for you and had to be discharged first. I'm sorry."Jeffrey wiped the corners of his eyes, ashamed."I know it's not your fault."Have a seat."Sean held Jeffrey, trying to get him to sit down."Commander, I can't sit."Jeffrey dared not sit down in front of Sean.It meant he was Sean's equal, which was impossible."I'm not a commander right now."We're friends."Sean looked at Jeffrey and said earnestly. Jeffrey still refused but could only follow orders after Zander reproached him.Sean helped Jeffrey and sat with Zander in a nearby chair.It was not until m
"Commander, you..."Jeffrey looked at Sean and tried to speak.However, Sean held out his hand and stopped Jeffrey, so Jeffrey could only remain silent."Are these enough?"Sean asked indifferently, pointing to the money on the table."Oh, you should have told me in the beginning!"They're enough. They're enough. I'll prepare the food for you."Tanya's expression changed faster than she could flip a switch.She had always had the impression that soldiers like Jeffrey were poor.However, someone wealthy came here today. Fifty thousand dollars might be nothing to a lot of people.However, fifty thousand dollars was a huge sum for a place like theirs where living costs and average income were low.It was enough to feed a family for two years.Tanya stepped forward and reached for the money, but Jeffrey stopped her."What are you doing?"Tanya immediately frowned and snapped at Jeffrey."I... I can't charge my friends!"Jeffrey blushed but said through gritted teeth."If
The young man's clothes were not cheap. His shiny, slicked-back hairstyle looked as if it was licked by a cow."Tyson!"Jeffrey clenched his fist at the sight of the young man, and his eyes were gloomy."Oh, Brother Tyson?"Tanya immediately greeted the young man with a coquettish smile.She was so friendly she was like a nightclub escort greeting her client."What's the matter? Did you miss me?"Tyson chuckled and glanced at Tanya's long legs."Tsk, you speak as if you didn't miss me."Tanya gave a seductive glance and giggled.The two ignored Jeffrey and flirted right in front of him.Zander turned and stared at Jeffrey in disbelief.He could not believe Jeffrey had put up with that.Jeffrey acted as if he did not see it."No..."Zander could not help speaking.However, Sean stopped Zander by giving him a look.Family matters were difficult, and he did not want to meddle in Jeffrey's family matters.After all, it was Jeffrey's choice."What would you like to eat? I
"Even if you haven't stepped into the legendary Transcendence Realm yet, you're already capable enough to overpower most martial artists! Mr. Lennon, you've possessed such strength at your age. You'll surely enter that legendary realm one day!" Adam exclaimed.He had practiced diligently day after day for decades, yet he was only a Beginner Great Grandmaster. Even so, he was one of the most talented martial artists among several generations of Greendom Chapel members. However, that talent was as different as night and day compared to Sean.Sean was now only in his 20s, yet he already possessed the strength to rival the supreme priest who had passed away.There were no other people as strong as Sean in the entire Dragon Kingdom."Alright, stop flattering me. I'll have someone transfer 500 million to you later. You can use it to improve Greendom Chapel's current situation. When the time comes, I'll accompany you to meet that man from Melode Cathedral," Sean said with a smile as he sh
"Mr. Lennon, you also know how strong that old priest is. We Catholics only have the supreme priest who could rival him. Now that the supreme priest has passed away, that old priest has become even more arrogant..." Sean nodded slightly and sighed before expressing his regret. "It's a pity about the supreme priest.""Human life has its limitations. The path of martial arts is long and arduous. Few people in history have been able to reach the legendary Transcendence Realm." Adam sighed as well. He had already reached Great Grandmaster Realm that countless martial artists dreamed of. Even so, there were opponents he could not defeat and problems he could not solve."Mr. Lennon, since you're willing to leave that calligraphy in Greendom Chapel, you must have some history with Greendom Chapel. I wonder if you can tell me," Adam finally said after a moment of silence.Adam was the former chaplain of Greendom Chapel, but he had gone into seclusion to further advance himself after stepp
A Christian refers to a follower of Jesus Christ who might be a Catholic, Orthodox, Protestant, or follower of another branch of the religion. A Catholic was a Christian who followed the Catholic religion transmitted through the succession of Popes, who were leaders of the Catholic church. Thus, All Roman Catholics were Christian, but not all Christians were Roman Catholic. The difference in beliefs had put the two in conflict."Could it be that their conflict has reignited? Didn't a Catholic priest warn those donkeys?" Sean asked with a frown.Adam nodded slightly and sighed before slowly replying, "It's just as you said. After the passing of Tiger Mountain's supreme priest, Christians often gave us Catholics a hard time. Now, not only are chaplains from all over Dragon Kingdom affected, but even Greendom Chapel has gotten into this situation."Most chaplains and churches relied on donations from their followers for their income. Once they lost this source of income, chaplains and
Meanwhile, a daunting aura rose from the old chaplain.The Brown brothers’ expressions instantly changed, even being forced back three steps by the pressure from the old chaplain before barely stopping.Willow's eyes filled with panic. She felt like she had encountered a mortal enemy and had her life on the line.Sean's gaze focused before he immediately reached out to hold Willow."Cut that intimidating aura out. Who are you trying to scare?" Sean snapped as he looked at the old chaplain.However, the old chaplain's kind demeanor changed. He stared solemnly at Sean and asked, "I'm asking who you are.""Who am I? Is my calligraphy in Greendom Chapel gone?" Sean replied indifferently.The old chaplain froze in place as if struck by lightning."What? The old chaplain is from Greendom Chapel? How is that possible… Greendom Chapel is a nationally renowned holy place. H-How could one of their chaplains be selling counterfeit goods here?" Willow exclaimed. Her hands covered her mouth
The smile on the old chaplain's face instantly froze. He looked awkwardly at Sean and stammered, "L-Look at my age. How could I engage in deceitful acts? God... I've lived a righteous life. I didn't expect to be so misunderstood in my twilight years..."Seeing the old chaplain's pitiful expression, Willow could not help but feel sorry for him.However, Sean looked disdainfully at the old chaplain before saying with a smile, "Sir, perhaps being an actor suits you better than being a chaplain."The old chaplain's acting skills were impeccable. He might even win a prize if he attended some award ceremony. With his white beard and the slightly worn-out robe that had turned somewhat faded, others might indeed mistake Sean for misunderstanding the old chaplain."Sir, you can't say such things! I've lived an honest life. You can't just tarnish my reputation!" The old chaplain pleaded earnestly, looking at Sean.Ignoring the old chaplain, Sean picked up a vase from the stall before him. W
Sean glanced at Elton and Bernie beside him and said with a smile. Elton and Bernie scratched their heads awkwardly and beamed. "After we finish browsing Antiques Street, let's head to the new company office together and get acquainted with it. At least we won't end up not knowing where our company is in the future."Daniel and his brothers immediately nodded.Then, the group continued to stroll through Antiques Street. However, Antiques Street had been around for so many years, and each stall was run by shrewd peddlers, who made it increasingly difficult to find hidden treasures.Even with Sean's keen eye, he had not come across a genuine antique after strolling through Antiques Street for so long. All he saw were counterfeit antiques that looked authentic.After another ten minutes or so, Sean suddenly stopped in his tracks.Not far away, an old man with white hair in a black robe opened up a large bag of items and placed the items on the ground. He then took out a small sto
Willow held Sean's arm, her face filled with happiness.Sean scanned the surroundings of the street stalls with a smile, searching for genuine antiques. The Brown brothers quietly followed Sean. With the Brown brothers standing behind Sean like bodyguards, the street peddlers who had heard about suckers in Antiques Street were now hesitant to make any sudden moves."Mr. Lennon, I heard this place is full of scammers. You wouldn't want to ruin your reputation here," Daniel reminded with a chuckle.Sean glanced at him and replied flatly, "Come on. Would my reputation be ruined in such a small place? Check out the two little trinkets Willow bought for only 500 dollars. If we auction them off, I can make at least 20 million dollars!"Daniel and his brothers paused and turned to look at the hairpin and the ring Willow was holding.Seeing the three men interested in the items, Willow stopped and handed the hairpin and ring to Daniel. "Feel free to take a look."Since they were Sean's
It was normal to pay others for their service. Sean only gave them 10 thousand dollars when he had made 20 million dollars a while ago. Ten thousand was just a drop in the bucket. Daniel and his brothers swiftly made their way through Antiques Street, soon spotting Sean and Willow. Sensing someone approaching, Sean immediately turned around to look. Sean smiled when he saw the Brown brothers."Mr. Lennon! Mrs. Lennon!" Daniel and his brothers greeted respectfully when they arrived before Sean and Willow. Willow felt slightly embarrassed at being called "Mrs. Lennon" and only nodded slightly before looking elsewhere. Sean nodded with a smile. Fortunately, this part of Antiques Street was relatively isolated with few people around. Otherwise, Daniel and his brothers' sudden appearance would attract attention."Mr. Lennon, you spotted us from so far away. Your abilities are admirable!" Daniel lamented.Sean shook his head with a smile and said flatly, "Martial arts is all a
"Don't be offended. Mr. Lennon also instructed us to watch over these three guys here," Bobby answered with a smile, not mentioning that they were hired earlier to mess with Sean for 3 thousand dollars.The four men standing before them were burly and not easy to mess with. Bobby would not foolishly tell them he had tried to trouble Sean."Is that so? How can we be sure you're not associated with these two?" Daniel asked hostilely as he raised his eyebrows skeptically.Bobby and his henchmen's expressions immediately changed, fear evident in their eyes. Bobby quickly pulled out his phone, showed the transaction record of Sean's payment, and said, "Look, look! This is the record of the money Mr. Lennon just wired me!"Zander glanced at it, confirming the identities of the three men in front of him as the same ones Sean had mentioned on the phone."I'll take these two back to the company. You three can find Mr. Lennon and help him out with any troubles," Zander said solemnly.Dan
