Even though it was late at night in Lake Residence, it was still brightly lit.All members of the Lake family's first branch gathered at Lake Residence today. There were three tables with various expensive dishes on them set up in the garden.Kennedy ushered Max into the compound and let him in the main seat.After Max was seated, the rest of the Lake family took their seats."Mr. Max Lake, did Mr. Blaze Lake say anything about my situation?" Kennedy whispered as he sat next to Max. He looked nervous as if he was worried about the answer Max was about to give.Other dignitaries in Ocean City would be shocked if they saw this. They would not believe that the head of the Lake family would treat a young man like that.Max glanced at him and answered with a smile, "Don't worry. Blaze speaks well of you and doesn't have a problem with you because of this."The tension on Kennedy's face instantly dissipated and was replaced by a smile.He was the head of the Lake family in Ocean City
"But don't worry. Since I'm in Ocean City, I can easily deal with them."Kennedy became relieved when he heard that.He had gathered the heads of several affluent families in Ocean City tonight to discuss cooperation with them.They had made a deal, but Sean and the others jumped in and meddled, causing the heads of several affluent families to flee in panic.After witnessing the reactions of the heads of the affluent families and the Stone family's tragic collapse, several other shareholders of Reason Group crumpled.Before parting ways with Kennedy, Reason Group's shareholders had made it clear that they would sell their shares as soon as the stock market opened tomorrow.They did not care how much money they would lose. All they cared about now was getting out of the Lake family's dispute with Sean as soon as possible before they were caught up further in it.Kennedy knew Reason Group's market value would probably plummet again once the stock market opened tomorrow. Reason Gr
After entering Lake Residence, the figure ran straight to Max and solemnly said, "Mr. Max Lake, our men have all failed!"As soon as he said this, Max's expression instantly changed as he threw his cutleries on the table.Max looked sideways at the man and asked, "You mean that none of the Darkness members we sent to kill Jadon has succeeded?""Yes, Mr. Max Lake!"The man nodded slightly and added with a solemn look, "They seem to have known in advance that we'll send someone to kill them tonight, so Jadon and the rest have spent a fortune to increase their security. From what I've heard, pretty much everyone in Ocean City's security industry is now in Quartz Residence, Carver Residence, Davis Residence, and the residences of the Lake family's second and third branches!"Max's face darkened at this.After a moment of silence, Max said solemnly, "Could someone in the organization have leaked the news?""I've asked the members of the organization. Punishment Faction could not find
The crowd answered in acknowledgment before looking back at the computers the traders were working on.Reason Group's stock price was shown on the computers.Once the stock market opened, many of Reason Group's stocks appeared."Hahaha! The stocks that popped up out of nowhere are probably from Reason Group's shareholders last night! If we take over all of them, Reason Group would go out of business today!" Jadon said with a laugh when he saw the huge amount of shares pouring into the stock market.The rest also laughed out loud, happy to see Reason Group's imminent bankruptcy.After they stopped laughing, Jadon suddenly looked at Sean and said, "Mr. Lennon, if we buy Reason Group's shares now, we can take control of Reason Group right away. Should we?"The others also looked at Sean when they heard that.Sean frowned slightly and asked, "How much will it cost to buy the shares now?"The men fell silent for a moment as if calculating the price.A moment later, Jadon said, "Mr.
Sean and the rest went to the Reason Group building.The Reason Group's receptionist sat on her seat, playing with her phone.She would never have done such a thing a day earlier, but today was different. Everyone knew Reason Group was on the verge of bankruptcy for offending someone. Even if she was just a receptionist, she had to consider her future and find another job soon. It was expected for her to play with her phone at work now that things had changed.Sensing that someone was entering the building, the receptionist immediately raised her head and looked toward the entrance. Shock flickered in her eyes when she saw the remarkable group of people.Without thinking much, she immediately put down the phone in her hand."Gentlemen, who are you here for?" The receptionist asked politely.Although her loyalty no longer lay with Reason Group, maybe the people before her could turn Reason Group's fate around. Those who were wise would never cut off all their backup plans.The re
Jadon and the rest would panic facing the Lake family from Janestown, even if they were top dignitaries in Ocean City.The Lake family from Janestown was still a top second-rate family, even in Janestown.There were even many rumors that the Lake family from Janestown would soon replace the weakest family among Janestown's top eight families and successfully join the top eight families."I wonder who came..." Sean said with a smile. Compared to Jadon and the rest's gloom, he was unfazed.The Lake family in Janestown could not pressure Sean.Sean wished Blaze would be the one who came to the Lake family so he could get something from Blaze first."Titus, tell them we're here!" Sean said.Titus strode to Lake Residence's gates, suppressing his panic.Even the Yorker family's eldest daughter was Sean's disciple, and the Yorker family was much stronger than the Lake family from Janestown. With someone like Sean on his side, Titus had nothing to fear.Thump! Thump! Thump! Titus k
The rest of the men struck immediately.Although they were also shocked by Sean's terrifying strength they were not too afraid as they had many people with them.Looking at the people rushing toward him, Sean's eyes filled with disdain.Sean attacked before anyone could get close. He shuffled quickly between them like a ghost.When Sean stood back again, the men showed odd expressions."What are you doing? Are you trying to scare us?""F*ck. I was scared to death just now. I thought he was strong, but he's just scaring us.""Boys, let's kill this guy who came to Lake Residence and behaved atrociously!"...The bodyguards worriedly checked their bodies. They immediately became more daring when they saw that they were unharmed.They immediately rushed to Sean.However, a series of harsh bones cracking rang nonstop like firecrackers before they could take another step."Ah!""It hurts!"The sound of broken bones was followed by a series of cries of distress.The bodyguards
Sean spoke indifferently.Jadon and the rest followed and entered Lake Residence with Sean.The bodyguards Sean had knocked to the ground and the unharmed Thirteen Guardians gave a wide berth to Sean and the others.Perhaps no one besides the Thirteen Guardians knew more about what Sean was capable of doing. The seemingly harmless guy before them was terrifyingly strong."Weren't these losers arrogant earlier? Why aren't they arrogant now?" Titus taunted when he passed by the Thirteen Guardians.The burly man was not a fool and had already understood when he saw how the Thirteen Guardians were scared of attacking Sean. This young man was not one he could mess with.The Thirteen Guardians looked fearful of Sean.With the Thirteen Guardians and several bodyguards looking on in horror, Sean and the others swaggered into Lake Residence."Old Master Lake! Old Master Lake! We have a problem!"Soon after Sean and the rest entered Lake Residence, an anxious voice echoed through Lake R
"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
