Bars are known for their constant noise, especially at night during operating hours, but right now, the entire bar is eerily silent with everyone within staring blankly as though they were seeing the most disbelieving thing in history, particularly the ones who knew the reputation of the two Lion Kings. This silence lasted for a long time before eventually, the Lion King, whose leg was being held by Xavier returned to his senses and became deeply embarrassed which promptly changed to an incredible rage. “Bastard! Let go of my leg!” He snapped ferociously, trying to force away his leg from Xavier’s lazy grasp. Yet, for some reason, he wasn’t able to move it an inch—It was as though the leg was being held by the large hand of a deity and not the seemingly weak Xavier. “Are you deaf? I say let go of my leg!” He barked and Xavier instantly smiled slightly before nodding his head. “Sure,” he responded before continuing just as the Lion King was about to heave a sigh of relief. “I will just repay you with what you wanted to do to me.” “This!” Everyone gasped and saw something flash in their eyes before they could think, after which, a shrill scream that sounded as though someone was being butchered echoed. Subsequently, Xavier let go of his hand and the Lion King was sent ricocheting away halfway across the bar. “Ah!!!!!!” He wailed like someone whose skin was being torn away from his body, making everyone feel their hair standing at the end while wondering about what had just happened. They all turn into statues in an instant which lasts for a moment before the first Lion King forces himself to return to his senses. “Third—third brother! What’s with your cry?” He asked with fear before rushing toward his brother. “Aren’t you embarrassing yourself too much? Yelling this loudly and painfully merely because a tiny ant that could easily be squashed to death with my fingers hurled you away?” He complained with dissatisfaction before bending over to help his brother up. The following second, however, he paused slightly before his eyes widened significantly, after which a strong shill ran down his spine. “What-“ his mouth hung open as he subconsciously moved his hand toward his brother’s crotch area. “What’s—what’s blood doing here?” he inquired incredulously and then pressed down with his hand. “Rahhhhhhh!!!!” The second Lion King’s roar intensified as if he were experiencing the most excruciating pain imaginable, and soon after, he fainted. The bar became pin-drop silent after this until; “He wanted to castrate me, but I castrated him instead. That’s fair, no?” A calm and lazy voice inquired, making everyone shiver frantically with goosebumps crawling hysterically all over their skin, then they glanced at the speaker. “He—he crippled the lion king?” Someone swallowed hard and mumbled doubtfully. Just then, the first Lion King returned to his senses and he screamed. “How dare you castrate my brother?!” “I’m going to kill you!!!” His voice filled to the brim with killing intent scaring everyone in the bar out of their wits. “The Lion King is finally mad,” someone mumbled and ran toward the bar’s exit without hesitation, looking terrified to the core. “Probably all the eyewitnesses here tonight are done for!” Another person mumbled fearfully as he also ran for his li… Everyone, knowing how unreasonable the Lion Kings normally are quickly ran for their lives, and before long, only Xavier, the fainted Lion King, the first Lion King who had turned into a raging bull, the dumbstruck bartender, and a horrified Grace were left behind. “Die!!!!” The First Lion King roared with rage and closed in on Xavier, throwing his tightly clenched fist at his face with all the strength he could muster. Watching this scene, the hearts of the bartender and Grace trembled, knowing that there was no way Xavier would be able to dodge or survive the attack. Although they weren’t the ones receiving it, they felt the strong force originating from it and trying to destroy them, making the two ladies shut their eyes just as the attack was an inch away from hitting Xavier’s face, unable to handle the scene that would follow. They brace themselves, expecting a shrill scream, but then a deafening silence was what they heard, lasting for a long time until the ladies could no longer handle their confusion. ‘What happened?’ they thought and squinted open their eyes, wanting to sneak a peak at what had happened. What came into their view the next second made their eyes widen in stupefaction. “Am—am I dreaming?” The bartender mumbled to herself dumbly before quickly pinching her arm. Having worked in the bar for a few years, she had long learned about the strength of the two Lion Kings, able to face the attacks of five able-bodied men without breaking a sweat, yet… “You—you—you…” the Lion King, who had attacked Xavier with madness and hatred earlier finally returned to his senses and stuttered as he eventually experienced what his brother had gone through a moment ago and to say he was terrified right now was nothing but an understatement. He had never thought the seemingly weak Xavier who looked like someone he could pinch to death with his fingers would be able to stop his punch with just a single hand. He thought he was dreaming as he stared at Xavier casually holding his arm that was tightly bulging with his thick veins from exerting all his strength. “You—you—who… who are you?” He finally completed and Xavier, staring composedly at him sighed. “I didn’t want any trouble; I just wanted to prevent you from committing an immoral deed while enjoying my peace. Why did you and your brother have to push my hand?” he asked helplessly, leaving the Lion King and the bartender stunned. ‘You didn’t want trouble and yet you interfered in our business, even castrating my brother! What nonsense was that?!’ He yelled in his mind, almost sobbing, but dared not to speak out. “Plea—please forgive me, master. I—I was just too blind to see the elephant in the room! Please forgive me!” The bartender, “_” ‘Is this still the First of the two shameless and evil self-acclaimed Lion kings?’ She thought blankly before hurriedly glancing back at Xavier. Her heart began to pound frantically in her chest and she became filled with curiosity for him, meanwhile, Xavier, not realizing what he had caused to the bartender suddenly gazed seriously at the Lion King. Given how you and that fool behaved today and the things I learned, you two love getting ladies drunk so that you can have your ways with them, no?” “I—I… “ The Lion King became further terrified. If those who had run for their lives out of fear were to witness this scene, they would have been stunned to death, but since no one was there, they couldn’t have in their entire lives imagined what had transpired after they escaped. “I—tonight was our first time and I have never had the intention of forcing myself on anybody,” the lion king sobbed, regretting why he and his brother hadn't ignored or begged Xavier to mind his business earlier. “Please forgive me!” He pleaded desperately, wishing nothing but to escape right now. Xavier watched the horrified Lion King without reacting for a moment, while the two ladies stared at him, waiting to see what he would do. Eventually, he sighed deeply. “As I mentioned earlier, I only wanted to have some drink in peace.”Latest Chapter
Chapter 1101 – Your Son Is About to Wake Up
*****Having just one B-rank fighter was already enough to elevate their family into first-rank status.In fact, they would become the first family in Riverton’s history to ever leap from a lower rank straight into first-rank territory.It was unprecedented and historic, enough to reshape the city’s power structure.But A-rank?It was just a single rank difference from B, but that single rank… it was an entirely different realm, the difference of heaven and earth.In the entire city of Riverton, there was only one A-rank fighter… just one.And at this moment…They were kneeling before him, his strength so unprecedented that he could easily level the entire city if he so desired, and yet…They have a high possibility of owning an A-rank fighter of their own?The Myron family trembled violently, their hearts pounding, and their breath uneven.But…Not one of them withdrew their words.And why would they?Xavier had effortlessly defeated and killed an A-rank fighter just tw
Chapter 1100 – Sir, Please Accept Our Family As Your Servants!
*****Xavier had not anticipated something like this, so he stared at the kneeling patriarch, momentarily speechless when suddenly…Thud!Thud!!Thud!!!Three more bodies dropped to their knees.“Sir, please accept our family as your servants!”“Sir, please allow us to serve you wholeheartedly!”“Sir…!”Ellen, Malcolm, and Cassandra cried out, their voices loud, clear, and sincere.It contained not even the slightest tinge of hesitation, reluctance, or calculation. Only gratitude and conviction.Witnessing this, Xavier’s mouth further fell open.“This…” he repeated, genuinely having no idea how to respond or react.Then there was Lyria…Apart from Xavier, she was the only one still standing at this moment.She stared at her kneeling family… her grandfather, grandmother, uncle, and aunt, all of them kowtowing to Xavier, offering themselves as servants.It was so… unexpected.Before Lyria even processed what was happening, her heart had already begun to pound violently
Chapter 1099 – Sage Myron’s Decision
*****Malcolm instantly froze upon hearing Xavier, his entire spine suddenly going rigid.In the next second, a cold wave drenched his back.‘Exploded into a rain of blood?!!!!’He couldn’t help but vividly imagine it. Immediately, his earlier complaint about unfair bullshit luck evaporated away, as though it had never existed in the first place.His heart raced, turning back to Xavier, but then… Xavier was no longer looking at him.‘Did I imagine his earlier stare?’ he couldn’t help but think to himself, his brows furrowing in confusion.But he couldn’t tell again. Now, Xavier’s gaze was on his father, his face calm, casual, and even lazy.“However,” he continued calmly, “because the soul had resided within your son for decades… treating his body as its own, cultivating through him, and using him as its channel to grow in strength,”His voice grew steadier.“It is safe to say that the cultivation belongs to him just as much as it belonged to the soul.”Xavier paused for a
Chapter 1098 – Sage Myron’s Anxiety
*****At this moment, the nearly forty-year-old Malcolm looked less like a dignified adult and more like a teenager being bullied by his elder sister.He had always behaved like an overgrown youth more than his actual age… this much was true.But right now?He had fully regressed, his eyes red, sniffling, and clutching his assaulted ear like it had survived a war crime.If a passerby were to hear the commotion at this moment, without seeing the scene, they would assume Cassandra was bullying a sixteen-year-old, not a man approaching middle age.Even Sage Myron couldn’t help the faint twitch at the corner of his lips.Malcolm cried so dramatically that it eventually stopped being a performance, a real expression of pain surfacing on his face.His ear had indeed suffered.Fortunately for him, salvation arrived a minute from being too late“Do you intend to tear your brother’s ear off entirely?” their mother asked helplessly, stepping forward and prying Cassandra’s fingers away
Chapter 1097 – Sister, I Spoke Nonsense!
*****Everyone experienced the greatest shock of their life, but Xavier didn’t interrupt, knowing fully well that it would take time for them to digest the bomb, but…It came faster than he had expected.“But… but the pressure earlier was only that of a higher D-rank,” Sage Myron suddenly stammered, utterly confused.However, Xavier wasn’t offended. Instead, his lips only curved faintly, then…“That was because I sealed his strength during the treatment,” he explained casually. “He had been bedridden for most of his life, leaving him physically fragile. If I had allowed the full surge of accumulated energy to erupt at once…” He paused briefly.“…his body would not have withstood it.”The air felt heavier, tense, and suffocating.“He would have exploded and died on the spot.”Once again, a pin-drop, suffocating silence enveloped the room, but this time, it was different.It wasn’t confusion or disbelief but instead… sobering reality, everyone freezing in place.Soon, more th
Chapter 1096 – The Room’s Shock II
*****Xavier’s tone was so relaxed, so lazy, and almost careless that it was as though he were explaining why the sky was blue… not why a man who had been bedridden for twenty-five years was currently radiating enough power to vaporize bones.“His soul,” he continued, folding his hands behind his back, “has been housing and cultivating another soul for nearly thirty years, to the extent that the other soul had developed sentience.With this said, he paused deliberately, letting his words settle.Then his gaze swept across all faces. However, apart from Sage Myron, who gritted his teeth, and Cassandra, who clenched her fists tightly, the others looked utterly lost, clearly not understanding him.But Xavier wasn’t even the slightest bit bothered.“So,” he went on, unhurriedly shifting his gaze toward the fragile man, whose terrifying aura was now gradually stabilizing, the violent fluctuations now slowly smoothing into controlled currents, “when I shattered that parasitic soul…”
