Allen turned to glance at Edward beside him. He said with a small smile, “Mr. Gould, you and your family needn’t worry anymore. Even if Isaac had three heads and six arms, there is no way he would get out of here alive today.”“I’ll take your word for it, Mr. Merck.” Edward guffawed.At that moment, two dull thuds rang out from the ring, followed by agonized wails.Edward’s heart clenched. When he raised his head, he saw how Marcus and Sean were thrown out of the ring.What?What just happened?The two martial arts masters were sent flying with just one punch?All of a sudden, complete silence befell the dojo. Everyone had witnessed with their own eyes how Marcus and Sean were hurled dozens of feet away before crashing bodily into the crowd.Below, Eli’s eyes twitched violently. He couldn’t even grasp how Isaac had done it. It had simply looked like he only threw a couple of punches.How could this be?Diana covered her mouth, her eyes widening. Her heart was about to burst o
Pandemonium broke out. Isaac had forced Mr. Hawkins to back away!From Isaac’s attack just now, Eli could already sense that he was not any ordinary person, and he even began to feel a bit uneasy.Seeing Isaac’s faint smile, Eli took a deep breath and grinned evilly. “Punk, if I don’t kill you today, then I’m not Eli Hawkins. ‘Eight Fists of Fury’!” With a roar, pale blue spiritual energy surged through his right arm, and he launched toward Isaac like a canon. A second later, the spiritual energy had formed a shadow fist on his hand.That was “Metamorphosis of Spiritual Energy,” a martial arts master’s skill!Everyone held their breath as they watched the ring. These experts’ moves were utterly formidable; in fact, most martial artists had never even seen them before.The first punch was aimed directly at Isaac’s face. The strength of the spiritual energy imbued in the shadow fist made Isaac squint his eyes, and he began to shift his feet, performing the Seven-star Footwork. His f
Old Brooks walked in with a cigarette hanging from his mouth. He waved his hand, and the dozen or so men in black stepped into a horizontal line, blocking the door.Charles, who was at the head of the pack, waved his arms and roared furiously, “You bastard, get out of the way.”Old Brooks smiled. Four more buff men rushed inside, standing in front of him. They each held a three-foot-long blade in their hands, and two of them pressed their blades straight to Charles’ neck.“Mr. Garten has said that no one is allowed to leave unless he says so,” Old Brooks said, smiling at the dazed Charles.Warwick, who was supporting Eli, yelled nastily from behind, “Do you know who I am? How dare you block my way? Are you asking for death?”“Mr. Brooks? W—Why is he here?” Edward instantly recognized Old Brooks, and Beefy Bob’s voice resurfaced in his mind. He gritted his teeth. “It must be that fatty. I can’t believe he’s still not dead.”Since the Owens family was at the very front, they backed
Warwick’s roar echoed through the dojo. No one dared make any sound; they simply stared at Isaac and Charles standing under the spotlight in the middle of the ring with wide eyes.Diana felt as if she couldn’t breathe. All she could hear was the sound of her racing heartbeat.Was he really going to kill Charles?“I—Isaac, you can’t kill me. If you do…”Before Charles could finish his sentence, Isaac suddenly released him. Assuming that Isaac was going to let him go, he wanted to let out a scream of joy, but before he could, a black shadow fell over him. When he raised his head, all he saw was Isaac’s right palm coming down at him.When Isaac’s palm was about three inches from the crown of Charles’ head, a dark red spiritual energy surged from his hand. Then, he slammed it down onto the top of Charles’ skull.Charles fell to his knees as if a large force had struck him. In the next second, blood began to leak from all his orifices. When he turned to look back at Warwick, his eyes
“It’s Wilson Kenne, the son of Horace Kenne, the King of Aurum County!”“Damn, things just keep on happening tonight. My heart can’t handle it.”Isaac didn’t look at Wilson. Instead, he shifted his gaze to the man in the suit. Their gazes met, and the man in the suit frowned slightly, turning to look at Eli, who was rubbing his chest next to Warwick.His eyes widened at the sight. Eli Hawkins of the Divine Fists School was hurt?Seeing how Isaac had ignored him, Wilson pointed at Old Brooks and snarled, “Devon Brooks, you sure are brave enough to come here and cause trouble in Aurum County. I’ll make sure you don’t leave here alive. I have already gathered 500 men outside.”When everyone heard Wilson’s proclamation, they were stunned. 500 men? This was something that only the Golden Boy of Aurum County could pull off.“Haha, Isaac, you’re going to die tonight.” Allen immediately burst into laughter. The fear on Edward’s and Margaret’s faces had also turned into delight.Then,
Isaac was lightning fast; the flying silver needle was slower by a hair. Just as it was about to pierce the spot between Diana’s eyebrows, Isaac let out an enraged yell and shot out his palm.A huge burst of spiritual energy shot from his palm, hitting Diana in her left shoulder. Her body tilted to one side, and the silver needle missed her face and pierced her right shoulder instead.Diana fell to the ground. All she felt was a sharp pain radiating from her shoulder.Her lips were already turning dark by the time Isaac reached her side.That silver needle was poisoned?“She’s been pierced by my poisoned needle. If you get her to a hospital now, she might survive.” In the ring, Mr. Blue smiled coldly.“I—It’s cold, Isaac. I’m so cold.” Diana’s body began shaking rapidly, and she wrapped her arms tightly around herself.Meanwhile, Wilson had managed to flee to the side of the ring. He knew that sticking close to Mr. Bleu would be the safest option. Watching as Isaac helped Diana
Diana was fine just a few hours ago, so why did they suddenly have to prepare for the worst overnight?“Doctor, please, you must cure my daughter. We’ll pay you any amount…”“It’s not about the money. We’ve already used three types of antiserums, but none of them were effective. The toxins are moving too quickly; we can’t do anything. There isn’t anyone or any hospital in Southland that can treat your daughter. I’m sorry.” The middle-aged doctor shook his head and sighed.Albert turned toward Isaac sharply. His face had twisted into an ugly snarl. He rushed forward to grab Isaac by the front of his shirt and growled, “Garten, this must have been your fault. You bastard, if something happens to Ana, I’ll never forgive you.”Old Taylor immediately reached out to hold Albert back. His voice full of rage, he said, “Albert, calm down right now. It has nothing to do with Mr. Garten.”“Says who? If it weren’t for him coming to Aurum County, why would Ana have left Cloud City? Dad, let me
Late at night, David O’Reilly was in his office and chatting up a female nurse when his door was thrown open with a bang. A bespectacled old man stalked in with a look of fury.“David, are you deaf? I called you five times, and you didn’t pick up. Are you getting tired of your job?”David instantly jumped up when he saw it was the hospital director, his face full of worry. “Mr. Dawson, what are you doing here? Uh, well, my phone was on vibrate, so I didn’t hear it.”“Dr. Foster of Hospital No. 303 is already on the way. He asked for the information of a female patient named Diana Taylor to be sent to his assistant. He has been waiting for you for half an hour, you idiot!” Mr. Dawson was so enraged that his mustache was about to fly off his face.“Dr. Foster is on his way? T—That’s impossible.”“Not just him, but five respected hematologists from Chester City have also come to work on Diana’s diagnosis together.”Five hematologists?David’s legs trembled violently, and he almost
