Once Sean finished speaking, several city defense soldiers marched toward George, drawing the swords around their waists.The gleaming swords sent out an intense chill and murderous intent, terrifying whoever saw it.However, onlookers were excited that they raised their right hands and shouted."Kill him!"Kill him!"Kill him!"They referred to George, Wesley's son, who was also one of the city defense army's centurions!Wesley's expression changed dramatically as he quickly rushed up to George, wanting to stop city defense soldiers, who were preparing to execute him.However, more city defense soldiers stood in his way immediately."Commander Jokerman, do you want to disobey Commander Lennon and stop the execution?"A city defense soldier snapped.Wesley's heart pounded as his hands shook violently.He did not want to see his son die in front of him, but he could not fight back.Sean was surrounded only by Gregory, Anthony, and a squad of 20 city defense soldiers.Howev
"As commander-in-chief, I'm deeply sorry for the impact this incident had brought to Dorodo. I now promise that Dorodo's city defense army will never deploy into the city except for major incidents and will only protect the entire city just outside Dorodo and secure the homes that citizens depend on."Lillian blushed slightly as she watched Sean's thin figure and his ordinary yet easy-on-eyes and impressive face on the television news."Are you shy, girly?"A woman in her thirties came over and joked as she sat beside Lillian.This woman was Ronald's concubine and Lillian's other mother.She had a better relationship with Lillian, even though she was not her biological mother. It was because her own mother had always been very strict with her."Stop it, Mila."Lillian shook her head hard and hid her face in her hands."Oh, the news is over..."Once Mila finished speaking, Lillian quickly dropped her hand and looked at the TV screen.Lillian was annoyed when she saw that the n
"Help yourself. I'll smoke a cigarette and relax. It's too hot."Sean said, taking out a cigarette.It dawned on Zander that that was the reason Sean ate so little.Therefore, he said no more and dug in.The fondue restaurant was crowded. Business was good, and Sean and Zander sat in the hall. If it were a Dragon Kingdom restaurant, smoking was not allowed.However, many people were smoking in the hall, and Sean was not the only one, so Sean just did what they did.After smoking a cigarette, Sean finally grabbed his cutlery and picked up a few pieces of bread from the fondue."What happened earlier was a good thing. George was asking for it, and Wesley was implicated. The father and son's influence had been removed from the army camp. That way, I've won over Dorodo's city defense army."Sean exhaled and said, picking up the cold beer on the table and taking a swig."Yes, you've thought of everything, Commander."Zander said excitedly.He could not help feeling excited.It
Lillian was not alone. She was accompanied by a woman in her thirties.Sean and Zander also knew the woman, having met her at Ronald's house. She was Mila Martinez, Ronald's concubine.Mila was a unique name. The name had the distinctive style of the City-State Union, but Mila was not a pure local. She had Dragon Kingdom blood flowing in her."It's you."Sean's reaction was indifferent. He gave them a slight nod and prepared to continue eating his fondue with Zander.However, Lillian came arm-in-arm with Mila and stood before them."I didn't expect to see you here, Mr. Lennon and Mr. Young... You don't mind me calling you that, do you?"Lillian asked, excited but worried.After all, Sean was the city defense army's commander-in-chief. He had the highest position in the city. Only the mayor Quentin could match him.Therefore, Lillian was afraid that anything she said or did would upset this "big shot".However, Sean did not mind her calling him that. He just found the woman a
Lillian was embarrassed.She could not even hold the wine bottle steadily. Her hand shook so much that it was embarrassing.However, Sean remained calm and did not show the disgust that Lillian had expected.He took the wine bottle from Lillian's hand and poured himself and Lillian a glass."Am I that scary to you?"Sean asked.Lillian shook her head at Sean's words. Then she blushed and said, "I'm just too nervous.""It's just a meal. What's there to be nervous about?”Sean said casually.Mila smiled and touched Lillian's head to encourage her.Zander's expression was unfazed.He was usually calm, so he would not laugh under such circumstances.After a while, Lillian finally felt less nervous and dared to talk to Sean.During their chat, Sean also learned more about the weapons dealer, Ronald.It turned out that Ronald not only dealt with Dorodo's city defense army but also sold weapons on Dorodo's black market.Not counting Dorodo's city defense army, Ronald occupied a
Hearing Mila’s words, Sean had a faint intuition.The woman Lorenzo had his eye on was most likely Lillian sitting next to him.Sure enough, Mila quickly added, "Alfie asked Lill to marry his son, Lorenzo, but Lill never said yes. My husband did not agree since Lill disagreed. Although he's greedy for money, he won't trade his daughter's happiness for money."Sean smiled. His impression of Ronald had improved slightly.Ronald was stingy and greedy for money, but this guy refused to use his daughter in exchange for money. You could tell from there that his daughter was important.Zander nodded and said, "Your husband has his redeeming qualities."Mila beamed when Zander praised her husband.Lillian said in a disgusted voice, "I will never marry that Lorenzo. He's a total scumbag. He has a different woman every day. I would regret it for the rest of my life if I married him.""Is this Lorenzo that bad?"Sean was not one to gossip. He just wanted to learn more about Lorenzo and h
Lillian might look weak, but she was tough.Otherwise, she would not have repeatedly looked for opportunities to get close to Sean.She even went with her father Ronald to Dorodo's city defense army base—a place filled with danger and mystery for ordinary people to achieve her goal.How could ordinary women have such courage?Therefore, just as Lorenzo approached with his two bodyguards, Lillian leaped to her feet and glared at Lorenzo."Lorenzo, I've told you many times that I'm not interested in you. I won't marry you, so forget about it!"Lillian shouted.All the customers at the fondue restaurant heard her.The customers finally recognized Lillian as Ronald's daughter and Lorenzo as the heir of the Wagner family.Therefore, the customers looked at Lillian and Lorenzo in shock before sizing them up curiously.The Wagner family and the Townsend family's feud were well-known in Dorodo, and they had heard of it.Now that Lillian and Lorenzo met up, they would argue about it
However, now that Sean had spoken, she dared not reveal his identity.Sean was the supreme leader of Dorodo's city defense army. It could cause a stir if they revealed his identity here. Lillian was not stupid. There was no way she would cause Sean trouble just to impress Lorenzo.If she did reveal Sean's identity, it would scare Lorenzo from pestering her. However, she might also disappoint Sean by doing that.Therefore, Lillian kept her mouth shut and said nothing.Lorenzo's expression grew smug at the sight of Lillian's silence.'There's no way this man is a big shot. Why else would Lillian not reveal his identity and where he came from?'It has to be it. That must be it!'Lorenzo laughed shamelessly before staring at Sean and saying, "You. I'm talking to you. I don't know who you are, but I think you should have heard about me, Lorenzo Wagner! I advise you to f*ck off at once. Otherwise, I'll make sure you leave here lying down today!"Lorenzo's words made both Lillian's an
"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
