*****

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 999 – Confirming The Truth

    *****Because of Roland’s earlier audacious questions, everyone’s initial certainty… everyone except the Blackwood patriarch, had begun to crack, and doubt had seeped in slowly.Aldric’s clenched jaw had slightly loosened, Darius’s tightly wound thoughts had started to spiral in alternate directions, and even Cassandra, who had been drowning in her own haze, had blinked, appearing as though a possibility she hadn’t dared entertain had suddenly surfaced.All four of them had thought maybe… just maybe their old man had been wrong.They had begun to reason, quietly at first, then with more urgency… all four wondering how the patriarch had confirmed Xavier’s identity, if he had truly verified it, or had merely leapt to the terrifying conclusion fueled by fear and coincidence.And more importantly…How could someone as young as Xavier possibly be an Erudite Grandmaster?That title wasn’t something you picked up on a whim like a street trophy. It was forged through decades of blood,

  • Chapter 998 – Father, You’ve Definitely Realized Wrong!

    *****Despite Cassandra’s arrogance, scorn, and always treating Xavier like it was a great privilege for him to be in her presence, he had never felt rage at her nor shown even the slightest expression of hurt.Only indifference at its absolute peak. Back then, Cassandra had always assumed Xavier was feigning it, believing he was being unnecessarily arrogant.But now that she had realized his true identity… she felt even more hurt than she had been in recent weeks.And just like that, time stretched unbearably slow for her and her family members, each second dragging like a lifetime, their thoughts spiraling into chaos.Until…“Hmph!”A sharp snort suddenly echoed through the air, the sound hitting like a gunshot.Upon hearing it, the entire Blackwood family jolted violently, their hearts leaping into their throats as they spun toward the source.And the source… it came from Roland.At this moment, he stood rigid, his jaw clenched so tightly that it looked like his teeth mig

  • Chapter 997 – The Blackwoods’ Anxiousness III

    *****Unlike Roland, Darius had known Xavier more.He had spoken with him, observed him, and watched him fight.However, despite considering himself intelligent… despite his sharp mind, analytical nature, and self-proclaimed high IQ, not once had he even suspected that Xavier was the Erudite Grandmaster in Riverton city.Not even once.In fact, Darius had gone out of his way to gather information about the mysterious Grandmaster. He had analyzed rumors, traced movements, and compared timelines.And yet… he had never connected the dots.Yes, he knew Xavier wasn’t ordinary. He had sensed it early on. The man’s composure, his knowledge, his strength, and terrifying calm… none of it belonged to a normal person.But an Erudite Grandmaster?No.Even now, Darius struggled to accept it fully.Those beings were borderline mythical… entities spoken of in hushed tones and whose names carried weight across nations.They weren’t just powerful cultivators; they were walking laws of natu

  • Chapter 996 – The Blackwoods’ Anxiousness II

    L*****Aldric stood a short distance away from the elderly patriarch, appearing completely unmoving.Unlike his father, he didn’t pace, didn’t fidget, and didn’t speak.Instead, he simply stood there, appearing rigid and hollow-eyed, his expression drenched in regret so deep it bordered on despair.If regret had layers, Aldric was buried beneath all of them at this moment.It had been his call and decision.At his instruction, they had planned Xavier’s death and had poisoned him.If it hadn’t been for that single, catastrophic choice, Xavier would still be their family’s acquaintance.If not for that mistake, the Blackwoods would be celebrating right now that they know his identity. They would be basking in glory and standing at the side of a Grandmaster instead of finding ways to beg for his mercy.The irony burned like acid.Aldric’s eyes stung, moisture threatening to spill over. He clenched his fists tightly, his nails digging into his palms.‘What kind of fool poisons

  • Chapter 995 – The Blackwoods' Anxiousness

    *****“This…” Xavier, hearing the sudden words, couldn’t help but halt mid-step, turning to look at the old man with clear confusion.‘Why does he look like escorting me out is more important than breathing?’ he couldn’t help but wonder, a faint crease forming between his brows.For a moment, he considered declining.But then he noticed the old man’s expression… genuine, respectful, and almost anxious to please.Refusing him now would feel… unnecessarily cruel.So, Xavier sighed inwardly and then slightly nodded his head.“Very well,” he said, and with that, he turned around again, walking away. His pace was calm and unhurried, every step steady and composed.The Prime Minister lingered behind for a moment, watching the exchange unfold. Ultimately, a playful glint flickered in his eyes as he glanced at the elderly patriarch.How could he not understand the man’s intentions?He understood them perfectly.But seeing such blatant eagerness from someone as notoriously rigid, bl
