“Allen, who is it?” Simon asked, furrowing his brows. He turned his head toward the door to take a look.“Ah!” When he saw who it was, his knees crumpled, and he fell to the floor.Beefy Bob strode to the doorway leisurely. Peering inside, he grinned and nodded. “Well, well, it seems like almost everyone is here at this dinner table.” Then, he turned to glance at the security guard behind him and kicked him into the dining hall. “Oh, you saw me, too.”He darted inside, closed the door with a slam, and the lights went out!Ten minutes later, Beefy Bob exited the villa with a cigarette in his mouth. Behind him, the villa was dark and deadly silent, looking as terrifying as a haunted house.In the living room of the Gould family’s home, Edward and Margaret were currently discussing whether or not to be thick-skinned and go to the Owens family home to offer their condolences.It was because what happened at the Martial Arts Showdown had something to do with Edward. Now that Charles w

“After that good-for-nothing suffered such an overwhelming defeat, he even came back to exaggerate how Isaac had already attained the Renascence Phase. What a load of bullcrap!” Fury was written all over Elder Thomas’ face.The old butler was appalled. “Renascence Phase?”“What’s the Renascence Phase? Is it powerful?” Warwick turned to look at the old butler.Elder Thomas’s face twisted with mockery. “Child, there are eight major phases for a martial artist—Rudimentary, Channeling, Burgeoning, Transformation, Amalgamation, Renascence, Divinity, and Celestial. The Burgeoning Phase puts you at a master level. In the whole of Southland, I can count on one hand how many have attained the Amalgamation Phase. If there is someone who has reached the Renascence Phase, then the world is at his feet. Even if all the families and ancient powers in Southland banded together, they still wouldn’t be able to beat a martial artist in the Renascence Phase, much less the Owens family alone. We cannot

Isaac accepted Allegra’s suggestion without a fuss and started making himself comfortable.Old Alec was shaking with anger and instructed Edward to drive them off. But Edward was already weak at his knees and could not think of anything else.Edward and Margaret knew Isaac meant it when he threatened to take Edward’s life.Hence, Isaac, Allegra, and Beefy Bob stayed at the Gould family’s house the whole day.Margaret noticed Edward’s head was in a muddle. She gave it some thought and whispered an idea into his ear.When she finished speaking, Edward looked at her and asked, “Are you sure this will work?”Margaret retorted, “Would you rather lose the 60 million dollars instead?”Edward thought about it and said through gritted teeth, “Not on my life.”“See? Let’s stall them while you get Randall’s help to get through to Mr. Kenne. We must take action as soon as possible.” Margaret patted Edward’s shoulder in assurance.A short while later, Margaret appeared at Allegra’s room do

“Dad, Mom, can you leave us for a minute? I have something to ask Grandpa.”Albert and Jane left the room.Old Taylor felt distressed seeing his granddaughter in this weakened state. Thankfully, she was alright. He let out a sigh of relief.“Grandpa, who is Isaac? You know the answer, don’t you?” Diana was determined.If Isaac was just a reformed prisoner, how could he throw off someone so skilled just like that?Besides, he got off after killing Charles.“Ana, knowing too much might bring you danger. Do you insist on knowing?”“Yes, Grandpa. I’ll be fine.”Old Taylor nodded and looked outside at the night sky. He said admiringly, “He came from a place known as the Temple of Drakon. It’s every warrior's dream to be there.”“Temple of Drakon… Jerk, he lied to me again,” Diana said haughtily, clenching her fists.Old Taylor stopped her anxiously, “Don’t say that, Ana. You must speak and act respectfully toward Mr. Garten.”“Hmph, I’m not afraid of him! How could he call me a t

“I told you, he’s just my high school classmate. It’s pure coincidence.”Nelson got angrier as he thought about it. He pointed his finger right at Emily and scolded vilely, “High school classmate, my ass! Why would he buy such an expensive car from you if he’s nothing more but an ex-classmate to you? Shameless whore. Get out of my way!”“Mr. Wood, you owe me an apology.” Emily had tears in her eyes. She trembled with anger at his derogatory remarks.Nelson raised his hand when he heard this, a fierce look on his face, and he was about to slap Emily when someone stopped him.Isaac grasped Nelson’s hand and said coldly, “You’re the one with terrible manners. What makes you think you can degrade someone else?"Nelson turned and saw Isaac. He lost his cool as his anger flared. He shoved Isaac, bellowing, “Why does it concern you when I’m teaching my staff a lesson? Get your car or leave it. I don’t give a damn anymore!”Isaac slapped Nelson so hard that Nelson swiveled on his heels a
