Adaline was at a loss and did not know what to do.

She anxiously said, “My brother doesn’t know his place, Harry. Please don’t lower yourself to his level. Here, I’ll agree to be your girlfriend!”

Harry's ego blew up upon hearing Adaline’s offer. The more fearful she was, the more it signified that Adrian was a deadbeat. He decided to show due respect to Adaline after she had expressed hers.

Harry waved dismissively. “That won’t do. I won’t consider anyone’s feelings in this matter. Not even yours, Ada. I insist on teaching him a lesson today.”

Harry stood up and walked toward Adrian.

“Great, I agree. Before anything else, let’s give this peasant a good beating,” Stella cheered.

The group chimed in, “We support you, Harry!”

Harry smiled. He was the star of today. Everyone’s focus was on him. He would be humiliated if he allowed this peasant to disrespect him.

“Please, Harry!” Adaline tried to stand in Harry’s way to stop him from hitting Adrian.

“Come here, Ada!” Stella pulled

He was renowned in the underworld for his fighting skills.However, he was blown away while Adrian remained completely unscathed.‘What the heck is going on?’Everyone was dumbfounded and they were confused over what just transpired.Harry was puzzled as well. He did not see Adrian move at all, yet he felt a painful sensation in his waist before he was instantly blown away.“What the heck is going on?” Harry was astounded.The rest of the group widened their eyes in shock as well.Kevan quickly helped Harry to his feet. “What the heck happened to you, Harry? How did you get blown away?”Stella was stunned. “Harry, what’s with you?”“I missed, I missed.”Even though Harry could not figure out what had happened, he was right about missing.Everyone was doubtful upon hearing that Harry said he had missed.‘Even if you missed, you couldn’t have missed so badly that you got blown away, right? If you missed, shouldn’t

    ‘Get his uncle to come? Isn’t his uncle the original underworld boxing champion, Bo “Boxchamp” Lynch?’Bo was of high status in the underworld. Even though he was a businessman now, he was still held in high regard.If he were to come, Adrian would be made to pay for his action, right?The group was relieved upon hearing that Harry was getting Bo to come over.Stella chuckled and said, “That deadbeat must have grown strong and brutish from being in the construction profession. That’s why Harry is no match for him. He’s doomed now that Bo is coming.”Yes, that was the only explanation for this situation. She heard that one could get strong by working manual labor jobs at construction sites.Kevan said, “How dare a brat who does manual labor in construction sites for years fight against Harry. We’re in for a good show.”The group smiled because they needed not to be afraid now that Harry was bringing over Bo. After all, Bo was a big shot.“We’re going to get a good show today.”

    In their opinion, not only Adrian would be doomed when Bo got here. Perhaps Adaline and her sister-in-law, Samantha, would become Harry’s playthings too.The men in the group envied Harry. They were jealous because Adaline and her sister-in-law were the rare beauties of Swallowston.Adaline held tightly onto Adrian’s hand as she listened to the conversation around her. She kept her head lowered. Her pearly whites clenched tight as she trembled. She regretted coming here with Stella.Suddenly, a commotion was heard coming from outside the hotel. The group was puzzled and did not know what was happening.Kevan motioned for one of the waiters and asked, “You there, what’s going on outside the hotel? What’s with the chaos and noise?”The waiter explained, “Our company’s president came and notified us to escort out all of the restaurant’s guests earlier. The hotel has also been sealed off. It seems that something bad has happened to the hotel. However, your group is the only exception.

    At last, the waiter opened the door of the private room.Soon afterward, Bo dressed in a suit walked into the room. Behind him was Kevan’s father, Julian. A large group of bodyguards followed them into the room as well.The entire private room was boiling over with excitement because of these people’s arrival. The group was emotional, excited, and anxious.Suddenly, everyone got up from their seats and perked up.Harry said in excitement, “You’re here, Uncle Bo! Uncle Julian, what have I done to deserve someone like you to support me today?“I’m really grateful!”Harry extended his hand proudly toward Kevan’s father.He had not expected to have such a powerful connection. Then, he said excitedly, “Sorry for troubling you today, Uncle Julian. This deadbeat is abominable and you must punish him properly.”Meanwhile, Kevan saw his father, Julian from the other side and called out, “Father.”Julian nodded.On the other hand, Stella said, “Hello, Mr. Zahn. I’m Kevan’s girlfriend,

    Realizing that Adrian still sounded so stubborn, Adaline panicked. “Uncle Julian, Uncle Bo, I’m truly sorry that my brother is so ignorant. Please forgive him and let him go.“He didn’t do it on purpose!”Bo and Julian’s eyes darted toward Adaline in unison. However, it was very apparent that they could not be bothered by her plea.Meanwhile, Bo said, “I don’t care if he did it on purpose or not. My whole life, I’ve thoroughly loathed dealing with trivial matters. Since he’s so stubborn, I’m going to let him experience the consequences of being conceited today.“Don’t touch his legs so that I can break them!” commanded Bo.“Please allow me to make a call before you beat me up,” said Adrian as he smiled.Bo was slightly taken aback. Next to him, Harry sneered and said, “Why? Are you trying to get someone to help you? Hahaha, who’s going to come for someone like you?”Kevan burst out laughing as well.Stella covered her mouth and chuckled incessantly. “That’s really funny. You da

    “Hahaha, it’s the…”Julian burst out laughing when he heard the voice, but before he could even finish his sentence, the arrogant smile on his face crumpled.Even Bo, Kevan, Stella, Harry, and the rest were stupefied, while Skylar just stood there, frozen.At that moment, a young man in a military uniform walked into the room with more than a dozen escorts behind him. He possessed a powerful presence, emanating a terrifying demeanor as though he demanded respect from others around him.This very person was Lucas Jenner, the battle warrior of Dragonshire!To top it all off, this god-like man even had Southrive’s General Summers behind him, hitting Bo and Julian with a double whammy.Neither Bo nor Julian seemed as arrogant as they were before. Instead, they humbled themselves so much as they respectfully said, “Mr. Lucas, it’s such an honor to meet you!”“It really is an honor to meet you, Mr. Lucas!”The atmosphere was so intense that everyone felt their jaws drop. None of them

    Julian was in tears.He knew there was no way he could turn the situation around—not when Lucas was the person with the highest authority throughout all of Dragonshire. Maybe the world even.Meanwhile, Harry was thoroughly stunned, while Kevan and Stella still could not believe what was happening.Everyone was confused as to how the tables had suddenly turned. Even Adaline was covering her mouth from the surprise.Suddenly, Daniel stormed toward Bo and stomped on his leg so hard that a loud “crack” was heard.“Aaaargh!” Bo screamed hysterically from the pain of his leg being broken.In deep despair, he yelled, “Please! Please, sir! Please tell me what I have done so wrong to deserve this?! What have I done?!”‘Why the hell did he cripple me out of nowhere? Why?!’ Bo thought.“All you need to know is that you’ve offended someone that even I wouldn’t dare offend.” Lucas looked toward Bo and then toward someone else as he spoke.Following his gaze, Bo’s mouth hung agape as he rea

    ‘He wants all of us turned into cripples as well?!’All of Adaline’s schoolmates were stunned, but then they realized they had also said some mean stuff to gain Kevan and Harry’s favor. They thought those words would not have any implications. But it was exactly because of this that Adrian announced he wanted all of their legs broken.“Ada… Ada, please… Please don’t do this! We’re all schoolmates, Ada!”No longer having scornful looks on their faces, all of Adaline’s schoolmates only showed helplessness and despair. They knew that Adrian would never spare them, so they began to beg Adaline for mercy.In fact, Adaline herself was stunned by the development of the situation. She looked at Adrian before looking at Lucas, confused as to why any of those things were happening.“Go ahead and do as you’re told, General Daniel.” Lucas gestured.“Yes, sir,” Daniel replied and waved his hand, ordering the escorts to move onward.Everyone was now on the floor after their legs had given way

What mattered was whether his actions aligned with his expectations.Within him, energy began to circulate.The violent crackle of lightning roared through the sky, sending a bone-chilling resonance across the land.Many trembled at the ominous sound.Adrian's expression hardened as his body emitted faint crackling sounds.The crimson lightning's devastating power surged through him, making every cell in his body tremble under its crushing intensity.Yet, despite the searing pain, a glimmer of satisfaction lit his eyes.

    Adrian's face darkened.Spatial fragments hurtling toward him radiated lethal force. On closer inspection, each shard bristled with deadly intent.Terrifying energies erupted, shaking the void as if it might collapse entirely.Below, the Holy Son observed with a cold smirk. "Hahaha! Let's see how you survive this. With the gravitational force on you now exceeding 80,000 units, you're nothing but an overconfident ant."Adrian shot him an icy glance. "Oh? Then you're not even on par with an ant."The Holy Son trembled with fury. He burned with the urge to strike Adrian down.Adrian had become both his greatest humiliation and the demon haunting his heart. Unless he destroyed Adrian, his future ambitions would remain stifled.In the distance, Kurt watched grimly. He hadn't expected Adrian to grow so formidable or to trigger such pivotal events.Adrian's suppression of the Holy Son only confirmed the man's long-held suspicion: Adrian was no ordinary immortal.Now that Adrian had p

    The Holy Son cast a cold glance at Andy.Adrian ignored them both, fixing his gaze on the staircase ahead.His focus remained unwavering. Now that one nuisance had been dealt with, he intended to press forward. If he'd been certain he could kill the Holy Son earlier, he wouldn't have hesitated.For Adrian, leaving loose ends was never an option. When he chose to kill, he made sure the deed was done.That was his nature—a man of decisive action. With calm resolve, he resumed his ascent, stepping deliberately and methodically up the heavenly stairs.From below, Andy watched and scoffed. "Haha, I knew Adrian wasn't ordinary. Seems like these so-called elites aren't that impressive after all."The Holy Son glared at Adrian, seething with killing intent.Adrian, however, remained unfazed, his attention fixed elsewhere.Suddenly, he sensed a mysterious force emanating from the clouds above the staircase. It seemed to be calling to him, though its nature was unclear.Meanwhile, Finni

    The Holy Son had never endured such humiliation. In his world, he was always the oppressor—no one dared challenge him.His gaze fixed on Adrian, eyes dark and cold. If looks could kill, Adrian would have perished a thousand times.Before he could react, Adrian's fist crashed into his right shoulder with bone-shattering force.A sickening crack echoed through the air."Ahh!" A scream of agony tore from the Holy Son's throat.In moments, he was defeated.Below, Andy watched the scene unfold, stunned. He'd hoped Adrian would put the arrogant Holy Son in his place, but seeing it happen left him speechless."That's the Holy Son," he muttered in disbelief.Yet in Adrian's hands, he looked like worthless trash.Above, a faint smile tugged at Finnian's lips. "Haha! This kid is truly remarkable. He never stops surprising us."Suddenly, a figure shot down from the clouds—a middle-aged man from Sacred Lunaland. His face darkened as he took in the sight of the humiliated Holy Son sprawle

    A terrifying burst of power erupted outward.At that instant, Adrian launched a powerful punch, meeting his opponent's fist head-on.The clash generated a shockwave, sending sparks flying in every direction.The Holy Son fixed a cold glare on Adrian and roared, "Brat, let's see how you die this time!"He relished the idea of watching Adrian fall, convinced the moment of his enemy's defeat had finally arrived.He intended to hurl Adrian off the staircase, forcing him into a state of utter despair—a fate worse than death.The pressure crushing down on Adrian far exceeded what the Holy Son himself could withstand.The destructive force around them felt capable of pulverizing a mountain into dust.Yet Adrian remained unfazed. A cold, indifferent smile played on his lips. "Is that so? Do you really think you'll win with such petty tricks?"To Adrian, the Holy Son was a mere nuisance. Without his powerful connections, he wouldn't even warrant a passing glance.Had the Holy Son know

    The staircase before Adrian exerted a crushing 60,000 units of force on his body. One misstep could mean total annihilation, scattering his soul into nothingness.The scene left everyone stunned, struggling to grasp what was happening.Andy's face twisted in shock, while the Holy Son radiated fury mixed with lethal intent.Terrifying energies churned through the void as Adrian's gaze sharpened in focused surprise.The immense force bore down on him, cracking his bones with resounding snaps.Thunderbolts struck mercilessly, crashing into Adrian's body with relentless force. Yet he stood unyielding, defiant, disbelief etched on his face.The Holy Son sneered. "This time, you're dead. With lightning and gravity combined, your body will be pulverized."Adrian smirked. "Is that so? Let's see who's really courting death!"With explosive power, Adrian launched a devastating strike, shattering the space before him.The thunder's force meant nothing as he pressed forward, unstoppable,

    Terrifying forces descended from the void, crashing down on Adrian with devastating power. His entire body was caught in the relentless assault.At that moment, Adrian's bones shattered under the overwhelming weight.The force pressing down on him exceeded 60,000 units, surging to a crushing 70,000 units as if the heavens themselves sought to destroy him.The weight was nearly unbearable, threatening to collapse Adrian.Yet, his face remained cold and resolute as he growled, "Hmph! Killing me won't be that easy."As soon as he finished speaking, Adrian's golden fist shot forward.The punch was lightning-fast, shattering the void with earth-shaking force.To his surprise, the gravitational pressure around him lessened considerably. Adrian's eyes flickered—he hadn't expected gravity to be breakable.His expression grew cold and determined. If gravity could be shattered, he wouldn't hold back. Without hesitation, he threw another punch.The wind from his punches roared, obliterat

    In response to the Holy Son's mocking words, Adrian glanced at him.How ridiculous. Did the Holy Son truly think his derision would matter? Did he believe Adrian was incapable?"Is that so?" Adrian retorted coldly, then leaped forward, closing the gap and standing alongside the Holy Son with a single bound.The Holy Son sneered.Adrian attempting to stand shoulder to shoulder with him? Laughable!He felt the gravitational force on Adrian had reached an astonishing 40,000 units, while he was enduring only 30,000 units.If Adrian dared push forward, the force would rise to 60,000 units—a weight even a seasoned body expert would struggle to withstand.One move from the Holy Son, and Adrian would be crushed and thrown off the steps."Adrian, be careful! It's about to reach 60,000 units!" Andy's voice echoed, filled with concern. Adrian's boldness bordered on recklessness.A force of 60,000 units could suppress even the strongest physical experts.The crowd could hardly fathom any

    As soon as Adrian finished speaking, he leaped forward, clearing three steps in a single bound.Below, Andy stood stunned. Adrian's audacity left him speechless.While others climbed step by step, Adrian defied convention, vaulting over multiple steps at once.Andy couldn't help but admire Adrian's remarkable physical resilience.Adrian's strength was beyond comprehension. Even under the relentless pull of gravity, he remained steady, pressing forward.Unbeknownst to Andy, Adrian's body was naturally fortified, absorbing the immense forces with little effect. His physical strength alone could withstand these relentless attacks.A surge of violent energy crashed into Adrian, sending waves of searing pain through his body. The excruciating sensation consumed him."Break!"Adrian gritted his teeth as the overwhelming pressure bore down on him.
