"He's still alive and kicking after doing all that? Is Old Master Lake a different person now?""Come on. As someone from Ocean City, don't you know what Old Master Lake is like? Many people have gone missing in previous years because they offended the Lake family!""Yeah. In my opinion, it's not that Old Master Lake did not want to kill him; it's just that he couldn't!""Hss! Even Old Master Lake can't kill him, he's too strong!"...The whole room was full of whispers, but everyone kept their voices under control, fearing that Kennedy would hear them.The head of the Lake family, Kennedy, had built a bad reputation in Ocean City over the years, and they would suffer to cross him."Sean Lennon!"Curtis' face darkened as he yelled coldly.Sean cleaned his ears, looked at Curtis with disdain, and said, "I wondered why there are peasants in Greenview Hotel. I didn't expect it to be you, Mr. Lake.""You!""Alright, there's no use talking about it. We'll see the truth later!"C
Sean and Theodore also nodded in reply. After all, Fabian was Ocean City's mayor, and they had to respect him.The scene was quite a shock to many people. Theodore was a prestigious senior in Ocean City, but Sean was from out of town. They did not understand why Fabian would greet him.The confusion in everyone's mind was doomed to not be explained. Fabian would not explain, and Sean would not explain it either."I'm glad that you can attend this task announcement!"Fabian said impassively.The crowd applauded, giving face to Fabian, Ocean City's mayor."Thank you all!"I'm sure you're all curious about the task I'm about to announce. Today, I'm not the mayor of Ocean City; I'm just the head of the Winters family!"Without further ado, I'll get straight to the task."This mission is not about escorting something; it's about asking you to escort someone for me!"Fabian did not like being long-winded like other people who had been at the top for a long time. He preferred gettin
"If anyone doesn't have confidence in their staff, they can leave now."There's no need to partake in the battle later and waste our time."Fabian said indifferently, glancing across the crowd.Once they heard this, many people got up and headed out of the function room.They could not imagine enduring Fabian's anger if they failed the mission, nor were they confident they could beat many of their peers and win the task.The function room, which had been nearly full, was immediately half empty.Looking at the remaining security company owners and the security guards standing behind them, Fabian nodded with satisfaction.Every security company present was top-ranking, and he did not need to doubt their abilities.Even though the Lake family had just opened Lake Security Services and had been humiliated by Optimus Security Services at the opening ceremony, that did not stop Fabian from believing in them.After all, with the Lake family's abilities, there was no way they would hi
When Fabian got closer, Theodore smiled and said, "Mr. Winters, long time no see.""We haven't met for a long time, Old Master Davis."Fabian smiled and nodded before asking, "How's Old Master Carver now? Do you feel better?"Theodore sighed and looked sad. "It's the same. I don't know if I'll ever have a drink with Old Master Carver again.""Old Master Carver's a kind man. He'll wake up."Fabian consoled.Sean was impressed by Theodore's reaction. Theodore's acting was enough to defeat most young actors in seconds.Judging from how sad Theodore looked, Sean would probably have believed that Michael was still comatose if he had not personally cured Michael.Looking at Kennedy and Curtis' smiling faces, it was easy to see that they still believed Michael was a vegetable.After chatting with Theodore, Fabian finally looked over at Sean."Mr. Lennon, Optimus Security Services is strong. I hope you won't hold back today."The escort target of this task is really important to me.
An hour's preparation time quickly passed.The Brown brothers had also reached Greenview Hotel.Since the team battle needed four men, Sean could only call the Brown brothers over.The three of them and Zander could easily wipe out every other security firm member here.Even if all these security firm members attacked together, Zander and the Brown brothers could easily defeat them.Sitting next to Sean, Theodore simply abandoned the task without calling anyone.He knew how terrifying the four men Sean had summoned were.The Brown brothers could easily defeat Maxwell and other long-established experts.Zander was the Brown brothers and Optimus Security Services members' instructor.After knowing Sean for so long, Theodore had never seen Zander make a move.He knew Zander did nothing not because he was weak. On the contrary, it was because no opponent was worth Zander's time.An hour later, Fabian walked on stage again."It's time. Let's begin the individual battles."One m
Feeling the disdain in Daniel's eyes, many people silently clenched their fists.As respected experts of security companies, no one could stand such an insult.However, they then thought of how it was still not worthwhile to be the second one on stage, so no one volunteered.The place was once again in a stalemate. The security experts were silent with no intention of going on stage.Fabian frowned slightly at this, obviously not expecting the situation to turn out this way.These people were well-known experts in the security industry, but no one had the guts to go on stage.He needed experts, not opportunists.Fabian turned slightly impatient at the thought."Are you all trash?"If you don't even dare to go on stage, how can you take on this task?"If you don't dare to challenge me, leave and retire as soon as possible. Don't waste our time here!"Daniel raised his eyebrows. His disdain was obvious.This remark triggered everyone present, and someone immediately came onto
"Alright, don't fight with me. I haven't met such a strong guy for a long time. My hands are itching a little!"Another man next to Kennedy said solemnly.The first man who spoke frowned and said, "Zion, you can rest. You're ranked third among the three of us. It should be me and Knox who go. What does this have to do with you?""Khalid's right. I'm ranked first among the three of us, so I should be the one to do it!"Knox Zachbone also spoke up at this point. He looked Daniel dead in the eye and added, "This guy is interesting. I haven't fought him, but I don't think he's any weaker than me!"Although you're both strong, you're still weaker than me after all. You'll only lose if you go on stage!"Old Master Lake didn't pay a handsome sum to bring us into Lake Security Services for us to embarrass him!"Knox Zachbone, Khalid Lorden, and Zion Stanwood were the top three strongest in Ocean City's security industry.Among them, Knox ranked first, and he had firmly ranked first in
Knox, Khalid, and Zion were much stronger than Maxwell and his team."Khalid's on stage! Khalid is the second strongest in Ocean City's security industry. Walter is no match for him!""You're right. Since Khalid is now on stage, this Daniel guy is going to lose soon!""Hehe, this guy was arrogant just now. Now that Khalid is his opponent, I'll see how arrogant he can be!""Arrogant? Khalid is so strong that he'll lose badly!"...Seeing Khalid on the stage, everyone present was gloating as if they had already seen Khalid defeat Daniel.Curtis sneered, looked at Daniel, and said, "Khalid went. I'll see how long this guy can last!"Daniel heard the crowd, but he was not affected by them.He looked indifferently at Khalid and said, "The number two in Ocean City's security industry sounds scary. Today, let me see if you deserve the number two title!"As an Ocean City citizen, Daniel knew Khalid, including the other men standing beside Kennedy.Knox and the others were ranked in
"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
