Xiang staggered to her feet, her body battered and bruised from Oliver's relentless attack. She looked up at him, rage and frustration burning in her eyes."You think you've won?" she snarled. "You have no idea what I'm capable of."She raised her hands and summoned a surge of demonic chi that crackled around her. But Oliver merely stood there, his arms folded across his chest. The air around him shimmered with power, and Xiang's attack seemed to have no effect on him."You're wasting your energy," Oliver said calmly. "You can't defeat me with your dark chi.""Who are you, and what's the source of your power?" Xiang could not help but ask.Oliver chuckled loudly and said, "You old filthy rag thinks you're worthy enough to know about me?" He replied. "It's my turn now," his voice was quiet but filled with power. "You've caused enough harm. It's time to end this.""What do you mean?" Xiang asked with a frown."I could have killed you in two to three moves. What I've been using was just
The powerful blow hit Lee's chest. As Oliver's fist connected with Lee's chest, there was a sickeningly crisp sound that reverberated through the air. It was the sound of bones breaking, of flesh and cartilage giving way beneath the force of the blow. For a moment, the world seemed to freeze as Lee yelled and collapsed to the ground, gasping for air. As he lay on the ground, his chest heaved with pain, he felt like every breath was a struggle. The blow that Oliver had delivered had been powerful, and it had hit him square in the chest. He could feel the impact reverberating through his body like a shockwave that had left him reeling. His heart was racing, and he could feel his pulse pounding in his ears. He tried to take a deep breath, but it felt like his lungs had been crushed. He gasped for air, but it felt like there was a weight on his chest, making it impossible to breathe. For a moment, he thought he might pass out. But the pain kept h
After Lee had taken his last breath, Oliver picked up the phone he had left on record and stopped it. With the help of a video editor, he successfully blurred his face out of the video and transferred it to Lee's phone, which he had taken from him.When he was about to turn around and leave, he saw one of the rooms in the cottage. He walked towards the door, opened it, and entered.Meanwhile, Zelda stepped into the dimly lit pawn shop, clutching the "Vegetation of Nature" necklace in her hand. She approached the counter, where a balding man with a thick beard was engrossed in a newspaper."Excuse me, sir," she said softly, trying to get his attention. The man glanced up and sized her up, noting the expensive-looking necklace in her hand."I want to sell this," she continued, holding out the necklace for him to inspect.The man's eyes widened in recognition as he took the necklace from her. "Ah, the Vegetation of Nature necklace. This is quite an expensive piece." He murmured Zelda not
In the box lay a yellowed pocket-sized book. The cover was adorned with intricate Chinese characters. Intrigued, he picked it up and studied the writing on the cover. It was in Chinese, a language he couldn't understand. Nevertheless, he felt a strange power emanating from the book.He flipped through some of the pages, but the writing remained incomprehensible to him. Frowning in frustration, he stuffed the book into his pocket and left the cottage, not wanting to waste any more time on something he couldn't decipher.Oliver walked back to where he had packed the car. Getting there, he saw as he had ordered, the men were looking over Marcus as he had ordered them. Seeing Oliver return, they all welcomed him in a respectful tone. Marcus panicked upon seeing Oliver return; his panic grew stronger when he realized Lee wasn't following him.He couldn't help but ask in a shaky voice, "Mr. Storm, where's Lee?"Oliver turned to him, his eyes dark and menacing. He raised his hand and d
In the video, a man with a menacing look on his face stood over another man lying on the floor. The man on the floor, who was Lee, looked up at him with fear in his eyes, pleading for mercy, but the man standing over him appeared to show none. With a swift motion, he directed a powerful palm attack towards the man's chest, causing him to convulse violently and vomit blood. The force of the blow was so strong that it seemed to shatter the man's ribcage, and Detective Lauren felt a shiver run down her spine as she watched the gruesome scene unfold.The man was none other than Oliver.A deep frown appeared on Detective Lauren's face as she wondered who could do that."This person seems very powerful, but it's sad that his side is blurred." She said as she swiped to the next video. Lauren was shocked to see another video again; she clicked on it instantly. All the other police officers also gathered around to watch it.Detective Lauren's eyes widened as she watched the video, her heart ra
"Investigate to arrest the person? Did you see the power he had in the video? Do you think a bullet might harm him?""Moreover, he did the right thing by punishing people we couldn't, so why should we go after him?" Lauren asked"I'm sorry, Detective, I was just overthinking." The officer said"Just take this body to the mortuary, and that's all." Detective Lauren saidIt was around 9 p.m. when Oliver arrived back at the Larkin mansion. After he was done with Lee, he went to the black Lotus group and burned each and every member of it into ashes with his fire flames, including Marcus. They were not innocent, as they had also used their demonic chi to harm a lot of people; leaving them was only going to cause problems later.When Oliver entered the mansion, he noticed everyone seated staring at him coldly; even Grandma Larkin gave him a cold look. He looked through them, but he couldn't find Ynes among them. He didn't understand what was happening, so he just walked towards them.Before
As the stream of light entered his body, he felt an intense surge of power flow through him. He staggered back a few steps, trying to regain his balance as the power coursed through him."What's happening to me?" Oliver asked confusedly as he felt a dark energy flowing through him."Could it be a demonic power flowing through my body?" He asked. Oliver felt an intense pain in his head as he tried to make sense of what was happening to him. The dark energy flowing through his veins was becoming more intense, and it was taking over his body.He tried to control the flow of energy, but it was like trying to hold back a tidal wave. As he closed his eyes and focused, he felt his body start to change. The darkness was taking over, and he was afraid of what might happen.Suddenly, he felt his eyes spinning and his head aching even more. He opened his eyes and saw dark phantoms appearing in the room, their eyes glowing with a malevolent light. The phantoms moved closer to him, their shadows
The next day, Oliver walked out of his room, still feeling the residual effects of his encounter with the dark energy. As he stepped out into the hallway, he was greeted by Ynes, who had a small sack in her hand."Good morning, Ynes," Oliver greeted her."Good morning, Oliver. I have the materials you asked for," Ynes said, handing him the sack.Oliver furrowed his brows, looking at the sack in confusion. "What materials are these?""The materials you asked for," Ynes replied with a small smile. "You said you needed them for a pill."Oliver's eyes widened as he remembered the conversation he had with Ynes a few days ago. "Oh, right. Thank you, Ynes. I almost forgot about that."Ynes nodded. "No problem. Is there anything else you need?""No, that's all for now, thank you." He saidShe nodded and turned around to leave, but then she stopped and turned towards Oliver."What did you do to Lee and Marcus yesterday?" She asked"I placed them in their rightful position, there's no need to
