“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
Not just the Drakon, but every general of the seven armies had experienced countless near-death experiences. The Apothecary was the man responsible for bringing them back from the grips of death.His medical prowess was undeniable, yet Beefy Bob called him a moron.On the way to drop off Isaac at his home in Riverview, Old Brooks said in a low voice, “Wilson captured a few of my men and took them to Aurum County earlier.”“What are you trying to say?” Isaac lit a cigarette.Old Brooks sighed. “Right now, the power gap between the Kenne family and me is too wide. It’s only because you’re here that they dare not reach brashly past Cloud City’s borders. I want to… establish a group of assassins.” He turned to glance at Isaac with an impatient gaze.Isaac understood the underlying meaning behind those words and gave a soft laugh. “I’ll find you an appropriate instructor.”Old Brooks stopped the car outside the door of the villa, then he turned around and left. Under the night sky, Is
When Allegra heard what Isaac said, she paused for a moment before rolling her eyes and saying, “Can you not joke around? That was so lame.”With that, she got up and went upstairs. A few moments later, she returned with a backpack and went out.She couldn’t do much about the company right now. All she could do was take it a step at a time.At the Aurum County Hospital, Albert, Jane, and a few other relatives were waiting anxiously outside the operation room. Dr. Foster and another hematologist had been inside for over six hours already.The red light above the door finally turned off. The door opened, and out came Dr. Foster, who looked dead tired.“Dr. Foster, thank you so much. My daughter…”“The patient is already out of the woods. She’ll be fine after a few days of observation,” Benedict said, taking off his mask.Albert was so grateful that he couldn’t stop bowing.From the side, Mr. Dawson and David hurried forward to butter him up. “As expected of Dr. Foster, the highly
“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
The news about the slaying of the entire Merck family rocked Cloud City. After Allegra got home last night, she sat in the living room until late at night, but her uncle never showed up.Although she knew that it was a pipe dream, Isaac was the one who told her to, so she clung to a ray of hope. In the end, even this hope was extinguished.Even Isaac was a little shocked. Did the killing of the Merck family have no effect on Edward?When Allegra went inside and found Isaac smoking on the sofa, she walked over and said coldly, “Didn’t you say my uncle would come looking for me?”Isaac felt embarrassed. He had miscalculated!“Next time, don’t bluff if you can’t actually pull it off. You made me wait a whole night for nothing.” Allegra felt a little bitter.Isaac stood up. Frowning, he said, “Should I go kill Edward?”Allegra gasped, glancing around her. She lowered her voice and whispered urgently, “Are you crazy? Why are you always beating and killing people? It’s illegal, you kn
