She had a strong urge to cut Sean to pieces!However, anger did not make her lose her mind.As much as she would like to give the order to shoot Sean to death, it was unclear whether the man with the black hood over his head was her father.After all, even though she had heard her father's voice on the phone earlier, who knew if the man Sean brought with him after the call was her father? Or maybe he had another man pretending to be her father.Therefore, she would ask Sean to remove the black hood from her father's head once they were within a certain distance.Only by confirming her father's identity and ensuring his safety could she kill Sean and the hostages!However, just as Sean and Jimmy were about to get within 100 meters range of the crossbow, Sean suddenly stopped.He looked up at the abandoned textile factory around him and shouted, "Jane, I've brought your father, Jimmy. Where are you?"Sean shouted so loudly that everyone in the textile factory could hear him.May
Jane trembled with fear even if she was bold."Damn it... How is Sean so careful?"Jane, who was behind the window, swore angrily. Then she straightened up and shouted to Sean in the yard, "Sean, I will kill your two women if you hurt my father. Think carefully!""Then stick with our deal. Enough scheming!"Sean exclaimed.Jane hesitated for a moment before shouting again, "Sean, take the hood off his head. How else will I know that it's my father, Jimmy, who you have brought with you?"Jimmy and Sean heard Jane's voice.Before Sean could say anything, Jimmy shouted in a crying voice, "Jane, I'm your father! I'm your father, Jimmy! Hurry and save me! This guy will kill me if you don't save me!"Jane was frustrated by Jimmy's cries but did not rush to speak because she had not yet confirmed the man's identity.Sean did not hesitate. He immediately grabbed Jimmy's hood and yanked it down.Once the hood was removed, Jimmy's face instantly appeared before everyone.Jane felt sad
May and Caitlyn nodded vigorously. Both women looked worried, but they would not disobey Sean."The deal is done. We're even."Sean said and prepared to leave while the mercenary led Jimmy back to the abandoned textile factory building.Just then, Jane upstairs shouted, "Do it!"All of the mercenaries instantly appeared behind the windows with their crossbows positioned on the windowsills, pointing at Sean, Caitlyn, and May, and pulled the trigger!The next moment, swooshing sounds could be heard all over the place, and bolts made of steel were shot at Sean, Caitlyn, and May.There were ten to fifteen mercenaries. Crossbows could not fire continuously, so there were ten to fifteen crossbow bolts in one strike.You must not underestimate this number. After all, a single bolt was enough to kill a man, let alone so many bolts fired together.Caitlyn and May both screamed with fear.Sean immediately yelled, "Run! I'll cover you!"Caitlyn and May turned and ran, staggering toward
"Change tactics. Use poisoned bolts!"Jane shouted, taking out a blue bolt from the quiver and putting one over the crossbow.Other mercenaries also took out their special blue poisoned bolts, loaded them to their crossbows, pulled the trigger, and fired at Sean.Crossbows were already powerful and could easily pierce thin steel plates within 100 meters. It was why crossbows were lethal in the Middle Ages. Ordinary people who owned crossbows would be sentenced to severe punishment.However, Jane and her mercenaries had taken their arrows to a new level by using poisoned bolts with their crossbows.The special poisoned bolt would probably kill with a mere scratch, let alone hit a vital point.Jane changed to poisoned bolts because she was determined to kill Sean to avenge herself, her father, and Billion Trees Group!"Hurry and run!"Sean realized something was wrong and quickly ordered Caitlyn and May.Aware of the danger, Caitlyn grabbed May and ran outside."You must surviv
How was he able to mobilize such a large number of special forces? What was his relationship with the Joules Town military?After all, Joules Town military garrison sergeant was a three-star commander.A three-star commander was the supreme commander of the Joules Town army to ordinary people. Even the governor of Joules Town, who had the highest ranking, must treat him with respect.Besides, without orders from the higher-ups, the army would not deploy top combat forces like the special forces.However, with so many special forces surrounding the abandoned factory, the entire thing seemed weird.Was Sean a member of the army?Jane was instantly overwhelmed with regret at the thought of it.However, it was too late for that!It had happened. What was the point of regretting it now? What was done could not be undone!"Listen, everyone inside! You are surrounded. Put down your weapons and surrender with your hands in the air. We can go easy on you!"The special forces leader, w
Because it was Sean's voice!Sean's voice was calm and a little hoarse. It also sounded like it had gone through the hardships of life. How could Caitlyn mishear such an obvious feature?She quickly got up and looked excitedly in the direction of the voice. Sure enough, she saw Sean stride toward her and May with a smile.Sean was not hurt.The bombardment of crossbow bolts did not harm him.Even though the poisoned bolts later gave him stress, they did not hit him, and he did not suffer a single scratch.Now that he returned safely, the first thing Sean wanted to do was see May and Caitlyn.After all, the two women made him worried."Brother Sean!"Caitlyn ran to him excitedly, threw herself into Sean's arms, and began to sob."You're a grown-up. Why do you still behave like a child?"Sean said in a slightly accusatory tone.Although he said so, he was happy.The two most important women to him, May and Caitlyn were safe. Great!Caitlyn wiped the tears and rubbed her fac
Zander immediately turned around and left. He soon brought Jane and Jimmy over.Zander handled Jane and Jimmy, who were handcuffed with hands behind their backs, like they were toddlers.Zander was furious with both of them. Therefore, after bringing them to Sean, he pressed them on the shoulders and forced them to kneel in front of Sean, May, and Caitlyn.May was calm, but Caitlyn could not stand it. She ran up to Jane and slapped her!"How dare you kidnap me? How dare you threaten my brother? Kidnap me again if you dare!"Caitlyn pointed angrily at Jane's nose.However, though Caitlyn had slapped Jane, she had no energy after starving for more than two days.The slap did not hurt Jane at all.Jane sneered. Without looking at May or Caitlyn, she only raised her head and glared at Sean."Sean, I lost to you this time. You can kill or hurt me, but I hope you can let my father go!"Jane's remark made everyone in the room look at her like she was an idiot.Not only Zander, May,
However, to his surprise and the surprise of everyone in the room, Sean refused without hesitation."Sorry, I'm not interested."As soon as he said this, everyone fell silent.Everyone besides Zander looked blankly at Sean.They could not believe Sean just said no without even thinking about it.It was the fortune of the chairman of Billion Trees Group, Jimmy Lidell. With its strong financial resources, Jimmy must have left a lot of money for himself.The average person would have been amazed at the amount of money!Billion Trees Group had gone bankrupt, and this was the money Jimmy kept for himself before he went bankrupt!It was not Billion Trees Group's money!However, Sean was not interested at all. He remained unfazed, which shocked everyone present."You're not interested? How could you not be interested? Do you know how much money I have? Do you know how much money that is? That's billions of..."Jimmy said eagerly, looking at Sean pleadingly.Hearing the words "bill
"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
