*****

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.”

  • Chapter 1225 – Silas’s Fright II

    *****Silas had always prided himself on his control… his ability to act, hide, and deceive, but right now, he felt as though he were nothing more than a clown.“You… you know?” he blurted out, his voice stripped of all pretense, and his face drained of every trace of blood.Xavier, however, didn’t answer, but he didn’t need to.The look in his eyes… cold, sharp, and faintly disdainful was more than enough.Seeing it, Silas felt a wave of humiliation crash over him so violently that he almost wished the ground beneath his feet would split open and swallow him whole, burying him somewhere far away from this moment.He had thought he was careful enough, clever, and that he had hidden everything well enough that even if Xavier ended up being as he had feared, he wouldn’t notice, yet…“I…” he tried again, his lips moving before his mind could catch up, desperate to salvage something… anything from the wreckage, but…“Also,” Xavier spoke again, cutting him off as effortlessly as on

  • Chapter 1224 – Silas’s Fright

    *****Silas’s eyes widened so drastically that it was a great miracle they didn’t fall straight out of their sockets, his mouth parting as his jaw dropped inch by inch, until he stood there looking like a man whose soul had just been violently evicted from his body.Then…He froze, staring at Xavier as his disbelief gave way to shock, the shock twisting into dread, and the dread constricting into a suffocating panic that clamped tightly around his chest like a vice.For a brief, horrifying moment, it felt as though the air itself had thickened, refusing to enter his lungs.This… wasn’t how it was supposed to go.Silas had been certain that Xavier would accept him without hesitation.From every angle he had calculated, it was the perfect exchange… offering loyalty in return for protection and his influence for Xavier’s convenience.It was a clean, mutually beneficial arrangement.He had even begun to plan, already mapping out how he was going to leverage the prestige of being

  • Chapter 1223 – You Don’t Deserve Such An Opportunity

    *****In Silas’s mind, there was absolutely no way Xavier would refuse his suggestion.Not after everything he had just laid bare… exposing secrets that could have easily created unnecessary troubles for him, even if it couldn’t kill him, and showing him such blatant and almost reckless loyalty.And more importantly… his identity alone was enough for Xavier to accept him.He was a direct heir of a first-rank family.Yes, to an A-rank fighter, such a title might seem insignificant and something beneath notice.But at the same time… it still carried significance, influence, and utility.Having someone like him as a subordinate meant access to networks, information, and resources that could quietly shape outcomes without requiring effort.At least, that was what Silas believed.From his perspective, accepting him wasn’t just beneficial… it was convenient.With himself as his subordinate, Xavier wouldn’t need to lift a finger for most matters again. Silas could handle them clean

  • Chapter 1222 – Silas’s Request

    *****‘He is indeed an A-rank fighter.’Yes, Silas had already concluded this earlier, which had brought forth his change in reaction and sudden sincerity.After he had connected all the visible dots earlier… the master’s behavior, the Prime Minister’s subservient attitude to Xavier, the car Xavier was gifted, the timing, and everything else he could connect, he had arrived at that conclusion earlier.But even then, he had only been about ninety percent certain.To most people, such a level of certainty would have been more than enough.Ninety percent would have been a full confirmation, while the remaining ten percent would have been Irrelevant.In fact, other people would have even rounded it up to make their certainty one hundred percent, making the ten percent nonexistent.But not to Silas.To someone as calculating and meticulous as him, that lingering ten percent had been like a splinter lodged deep in his mind… small, but impossible to ignore.It had bothered him quie

  • Chapter 1221 – Silas’s Realization

    *****At this moment, Xavier… looking like someone who had absolutely no worries in the world, simply stared at Silas with a gaze so dull and unfocused that it almost seemed like he might fall asleep at any second.His eyelids hung low, his expression flat, his entire demeanor radiating a level of boredom that bordered on offensive.If anything, he looked less like a man who had just been handed explosive information and more like someone being forced to sit through a painfully dull show he had already watched a hundred times and feels boring each time.He showed tension, curiosity, or even the faintest flicker of interest… just that same lazy indifference, appearing as though nothing Silas had said held even the slightest significance.Silas had anticipated many things… shock, confusion, suspicion, or at the very least, a question.But after everything he had just revealed… after laying out schemes, dangers, and hidden enemies, he had never imagined that Xavier would not only r

  • Chapter 097 – The Divine Healer’s Identity

    *****Despite the waves of mockery, ridicule, and biting condescension thrown at him by both Patricia and Anita, Zach remained completely unmoved.He neither interrupted nor refuted them, and neither did he allow even the faintest flicker of emotion to surface on his face.It was as though their words simply failed to reach him… as though they were arrows loosed at a wall of steel, sharp in intent but utterly ineffective in impact.Yet the moment he finally spoke…A heavy, oppressive silence settled over the room, swallowing everything in a suffocating stillness.It pressed down on every breath and heartbeat, making even the air seem unwilling to move.All three stared at him with daze, confused, and suspicious gazes, appearing as though he had just uttered something incomprehensible.Their brows knit together, their gazes narrowing slightly as they tried to make sense of what they had just heard.For a brief moment, it was as if time itself had stalled, no one speaking or mo
