THE INSANE HUSBAND IS IRON WOLF COMMANDER CHAPTER 127
The air in the reception hall crackled with tension. Jack Sullivan’s fury was palpable, his eyes cold as they locked onto Victor Lawrence and his son Derek, who was still trying to steady himself after the humiliation. Jack’s fingers curled into a fist at his side, the anger burning beneath his calm exterior.“You think I’m done?” Jack’s voice was low, icy, and every word dripped with menace. “No, Victor. This ends now.”Victor’s jaw tightened, and he stood taller, attempting to retain his pride. “You’ve made your point, Mr. Sullivan. But my son is not some animal you can—”“I’m not done with you yet,” Jack interrupted, his gaze shifting to Derek. “Both of you need to kneel. Now. Apologize.”Derek’s face twisted in fury. “You think I’m going to kneel to you? You’ve got another thing coming!”Victor’s hand clenched at his side, his mind racing. He could feel the power shift in the room, and the realization hit him like a ton of bricks—this was Jack’s territory. This was Carson City. Th

As the music resumed at the wedding, the mood had shifted dramatically. Where once whispers of doubt surrounded Jack Sullivan, now every step he took was met with hushed reverence. The most feared man in Carson City had just made an example out of the Lawrences—and everyone was watching.“Mr. Sullivan, may I pour you another glass?” a trembling waiter asked, bowing so low his forehead nearly touched the table.“No need,” Jack said coolly. “I’ve already spilled enough tonight.”Laughter rippled across the room—nervous, forced, but there.Heather Reed, still dressed in her bridesmaid gown, made her way over to David Smith. Her smile was suddenly sweet, her eyes glistening with what she hoped looked like regret.“David…” she purred, placing a hand gently on his arm. “About earlier… I didn’t mean to say all those things. I—I was confused. But seeing you now, I realize I made a mistake.”David raised a brow. “Yeah, you did. A big one. The size of your ego, actually.”“Come on,” she said wi

Matthew groaned on the leather couch, a towel pressed against the hole in his ribs where Jack's finger had almost turned him into a human donut. Jack stood nearby, arms crossed, eyes gleaming with a mix of curiosity and warning.“You stink,” Jack said bluntly. “Like rotting lizard mixed with cheap poison.”Matthew winced. “That’s not my cologne.”Jack knelt beside him. “Don’t play games. That smell on you—what is it? Start talking before I turn the other side of you into Swiss cheese.”Matthew swallowed hard. “It’s from Scorpion Hollow… in Pine Ridge. I went there two weeks ago with Victor Lawrence. We were looking for some rare creatures.”Jack’s eyes narrowed. “Scorpion Hollow? You telling me you stepped into that death trap?”“Not willingly!” Matthew coughed. “Victor said we’d find something useful. There were mutated scorpions, the size of dogs—vicious. Nearly everyone got wiped out. I… I got bit.”Jack leaned in, now genuinely intrigued. Scorpion Hollow... that place was just a l

At an old teahouse in South Carson, Charlotte Shaw sipped jasmine tea, legs crossed, eyes fixed on the frail man seated across from her. Uncle Frank, once a martial arts legend, now leaned heavily on a cane, his left leg twitching involuntarily.“You’re going to Scorpion Hollow?” he asked, coughing. “Have you lost your damn mind, girl?”Charlotte sighed. “I don’t need a lecture, Uncle Frank. I need protection. Someone who can handle whatever’s in that cave.”He gave her a look. “Honey, I got arthritis, three broken ribs, and a spine that clicks when I sneeze. You think I’m hiking into poison cave central?”“Then give me someone. Recommend someone.”Frank scratched his grizzled chin. “There’s one. James Logan. Senior disciple of Master Wilson. Older martial brother of the guy Jack Sullivan turned into roadkill last month.”Charlotte blinked. “He’s alive?”Frank grinned. “Back in the States. Quiet. Waiting for his chance to kill Sullivan. He hates Jack more than your makeup artist hates

As Jack approached the stalled tourist bus, Ashley turned to her classmates with a bright smile.“That’s my brother-in-law,” she said proudly.Jack gave her a small nod. “Hope you’ve been behaving, Ash.”Brian, still rubbing his cheek from earlier, scoffed loudly. “Brother-in-law? That’s what we’re calling him now? Doesn’t look like family. Looks like the guy who sleeps behind gas stations.”Jack turned to him slowly. “Still talking? I thought we fixed that.”The students chuckled, and Brian’s ears turned red. His chest puffed up like a blowfish.“I don’t know who you think you are,” Brian snapped, “but this area ahead? It’s blocked. Government access only. No one goes through without permission.”Jack didn’t even blink. He turned and kept walking, motioning to Matthew. “Let’s go.”Matthew gave Brian a half-smile as he limped after Jack. “Thanks for the weather report.”Brian's face twisted in disbelief. “Hey! Did you not hear me? You’re trespassing!”Jack lifted a hand as he walked.

Jack Sullivan walked with steady steps, his hands in his coat pockets, as though he were headed to a casual brunch instead of a notorious death cave.Nie Mitchell trudged behind him, glancing nervously at the muddy footprints along the path. “Sir, uh… those tracks… someone’s already ahead of us. A lot of people. Probably armed. Maybe dangerous.”Jack didn’t break stride. “So?”“So… maybe we should slow down? I mean, this place has a reputation. Nine Scorpion Cave isn’t called that for the landscaping.”Jack smirked. “Relax. If we run into trouble, I’ll use you as bait.”Nie nearly tripped. “W-what?!”“Calm down,” Jack said lazily. “You’d die too fast to make good bait anyway.”Ashley, walking a few steps behind them, frowned. She hadn’t exactly planned on coming this far, but something about Jack’s calm, unbothered attitude made it hard to turn back.Better than staying with that discount peacock Brian and his giggling fan club, she thought. Besides… there’s something different about

Uncle Frank stepped forward, his cane digging into the rocky ground, voice gravelly but forceful.“Young man,” he said, narrowing his eyes at Jack. “This area is under the Shaw family’s authority. I suggest you leave before you offend someone you can’t afford to cross.”Jack didn’t even stop walking. He turned his head slightly, eyes calm. “Oh? The Shaw family? You mean the same Shaw family whose patriarch, Richard Shaw, toasts to my health every time we meet?”Charlotte froze.Uncle Frank blinked. “You—you know Mr. Richard personally?”Jack raised a brow. “I had dinner with him last month. He called me kiddo. So unless you’re secretly his long-lost twin with better knees, I’d suggest you stay in your lane, Frank.”Gasps rippled through the small crowd. Ashley tried not to laugh.Charlotte looked away, cheeks twitching. Damn it. I forgot he still has ties to my grandfather...Before Frank could respond, the sound of an engine roared in the distance.A custom black SUV screeched to a s

The atmosphere near Nine Scorpion Cave crackled with tension. A dozen powerful figures had gathered—Jack Sullivan, standing casually at the front; Harold Quinn, head of the influential Quinn family from Westlake City; and beside him, his son Brian Quinn, still nursing bruised ego from earlier. Towering beside them, silent but imposing, stood Ron Taylor, the elusive leader of Pine Ridge.The air was thick with authority… until Brian exploded.“You think you can keep embarrassing me?!” Brian suddenly shouted, red-faced. “I don’t care who you are, Jack! I’ll shut that smug mouth of yours myself!”Here we go again, Jack thought, barely stifling a sigh.Brian lunged.Ron Taylor’s brows lifted. “Oh?”Harold Quinn stepped forward quickly. “Apologies, Mr. Taylor. My son’s just... passionate. Reckless, but passionate.”Ron chuckled. “Let the boy swing. Young men need to learn somehow.”Jack didn’t even move as Brian charged. One second, Brian was mid-air. The next—CRACK!Jack’s leg shot forwa

Inside the Shaw family estate, the atmosphere was quieter than usual.Charlotte Shaw sat stiffly on the antique leather chair, fingers laced tightly in her lap. Across from her, Richard Shaw poured himself a cup of tea, moving with deliberate grace.“You’ll apologize,” he said calmly.Charlotte’s brows furrowed. “I already said I regret what happened.”Richard looked at her over the rim of his cup. “Regret is not apology.”“I just…” she hesitated, then admitted, “I don’t want you to be the one to do it.”He set the cup down with a soft clink. “Then you shouldn’t have needed me to.”The silence between them was heavy, but not cruel.“I will personally represent the Shaw family at the Harvest Festival in Eastridge City,” he continued. “Our presence is expected. Our humility is required.”Charlotte looked away. Her pride bruised, her voice small.“I never thought it would come to this.”Richard leaned back. “That’s because you never thought he was more than a shadow. Now you know better.
CHAPTER 142
“He’s the eldest son of the Eastern Sullivan family.”She blinked. “The who?”Richard closed the file slowly. “The Sullivan family. East-coast monarchs of power, both legitimate and underground. Their name is whispered in federal halls and boardrooms alike.”Charlotte scoffed. “The Eastern Sullivans? I’ve heard of them, but they don’t compare to the state capital families. They’re not even on the same ladder.”Richard’s jaw tightened. “That’s where you’re wrong. You think we’re playing a local game? Jack Sullivan is walking across a global board.”Charlotte frowned, but her grandfather continued, his tone deepening.“His third uncle, Nathan Sullivan, is the one who built the underground empire in Carson City—an empire that even federal agents avoid confronting directly. Do you know who handles most of the private security logistics in five states? The Sullivan family.”She swallowed, unease creeping in.“And his mother,” Richard added, “is Margaret Williamson.”Charlotte blinked. “Tha
CHAPTER 141
Inside the deepest chamber of the Nine Scorpion Cave, the air pulsed with heat and pressure. A faint green glow radiated from Jack Sullivan’s body as he sat cross-legged, bare-chested, surrounded by the crushed remains of venomous scorpion cores. His breathing was slow, deliberate, and deep.For the last three days, Jack hadn’t moved. Not even once.The Scorpion Essence, distilled from the Emperor Scorpion’s body and the most potent venom sacs, now coursed through his veins. It burned, reshaped, and empowered.His skin glistened with sweat, but under it, something more terrifying was forming.Scorpion strength…His fingers twitched, now strong enough to crack steel with a flick. His back was lined with corded muscle, but it wasn’t brute strength alone—it was a precision power, venomous and fast.If I’d had this power during the Robert fight, Jack thought, I could’ve shattered his defenses in one strike. He wouldn’t have walked away.His chest rose slowly.This changes everything.Outs
CHAPTER 140
On a remote island far from the chaos of cities and scorpion-infested caves, an old man bent low over a patch of rocky soil. With slow, deliberate motions, he pulled up weeds that didn’t belong. His tattered shirt clung to his wiry frame, but a small swallow emblem stitched on the chest shimmered faintly in the sun.Victor Yates—once feared across nations, now a humble farmer. Or so it appeared.A young man approached, hesitating as he stepped over the jagged path of coral and dirt.“Master Yates.”Victor didn’t look up. “You found more wild yam?”The young man’s throat tightened. “No, Master… it’s about James Leonard.”Victor’s hand paused mid-pull.“Well?” he said, not turning.“He’s… dead.”The silence that followed was heavier than the sea breeze.Victor continued weeding without a word. The soil trembled subtly under his fingers—a sign of internal energy shifting beneath the surface.“Who?” he finally asked.“Jack Sullivan.”Victor exhaled slowly. “That name again.”“He also kill
CHAPTER 139
James Leonard’s eyes narrowed, his body tense like a coiled spring.“You’ve made it this far, Sullivan,” he muttered, “but you won’t leave this mountain alive.”Jack rolled his shoulders, voice calm as ever. “Big words from a man who just fed his own ally to a scorpion.”With a roar, James lunged, his fists blurring with speed. The first punch hit Jack square in the chest—followed by three more in rapid succession.THUD. THUD. THUD.Jack didn’t even flinch.James froze mid-strike. “What…?”Jack looked down at his chest, brushed some dust from his coat. “You done?”James stepped back in disbelief. Those hits could crush concrete… but he didn’t even stagger.Is he human?Jack smirked. “Iron Body Technique. Guess your master didn’t teach you that.”James growled and went in again, this time throwing everything—knees, elbows, fists, spinning kicks. The ground cracked beneath him, and shockwaves rippled out.Still, Jack barely moved.Then came Jack’s turn.He stepped in, faster than lightn
CHAPTER 138
“I’m not here for The Ghost,” James Leonard said coldly. “Frankly, I didn’t like him much. Arrogant, sloppy… too obsessed with making a name.”Jack raised an eyebrow. “Then why come for me?”James cracked his neck. “Because he was still my master’s student. Victor Yates trained him. His death reflects on the Yates lineage.”He took another step closer, killing intent radiating off him like heat.“I’m not here to mourn a brother. I’m here to defend my master’s honor. And that means killing you, Jack Sullivan.”Ron Taylor’s throat bobbed. He really means to fight Jack… this is bad.Behind them, the Emperor Scorpion loomed, its stinger dripping, poised over Uncle Frank, who was barely holding on.“J-James…” Frank rasped, coughing blood. “Help… me…”James turned to him slowly, lips curling into something cruel.“You? Help you?” He chuckled, then raised his leg.Before anyone could react—BAM!James kicked Uncle Frank like trash, launching him straight toward the scorpion’s gaping pincers.
CHAPTER 137
A deep hiss echoed from the cave’s maw, darker and heavier than before.Then it appeared.An Emperor Scorpion.Jet-black, armored like obsidian, the monstrous creature scuttled out from the darkness. Its pincers were thick as tree trunks, and its tail arched high—dripping with venom that shimmered like green fire.Uncle Frank tried to rise.Too late.CRACK!The Emperor’s stinger struck him dead center in the chest."AAAAHHH!" Uncle Frank screamed—his first scream in decades.Charlotte’s face turned ghost-white. “Uncle Frank!”Blood spilled from his mouth as his body convulsed, thrown backward like a ragdoll. The entire battlefield froze—everyone had heard of the Emperor, but few had ever seen it. And no one expected that sound from a man like Frank.“Help… Master… James…” Uncle Frank rasped.That name rang like a thunderclap.From the group of supposed bodyguards, one man stepped forward.He was tall, sharp-eyed, and dressed plainly, blending in with the security team—until now.In a
CHAPTER 136
The air turned heavy.A low, grinding rumble echoed from deep inside Nine Scorpion Cave.BOOM.A sharp vibration ran through the ground. Pebbles trembled. The trees swayed unnaturally.Jack Sullivan turned his head slowly toward the cave entrance.“They’re awake,” he said simply.Nie Mitchell’s face drained of color. “T-That sound… I’ve heard it before.” He staggered back a step. “Oh no… the nest is disturbed. They’re coming!”Before anyone could react, Charlotte Shaw snapped her fingers.“Uncle Frank!” she barked. “Take the vanguard. Clear it before they spread!”Uncle Frank nodded. “Yes, Miss!”He gathered a dozen armored men and dashed forward, spear in hand, moving like a man half his age.Ashley stepped closer to Jack. “What’s inside that cave?”“Poison,” Jack said. “And stupidity.”She blinked. “What?”Jack exhaled. “You’ll see.”From the mouth of the cave came a horrifying sound—a clicking, hissing flood of chaos.And then they appeared.Over 300 venomous scorpions, each rangin

Ron Taylor’s sharp eyes narrowed as he turned toward Charlotte Shaw. The smile had faded from his face.“You knew who he was, didn’t you?” he asked quietly.Charlotte kept her expression cool. “I didn’t think it was relevant.”“Not relevant?” Ron’s voice was calm, but heavy. “You let your little drama nearly spark a war between Westlake and Carson… over ego?”Charlotte’s jaw clenched. Why is Jack always protected? Always walking out clean, no matter what he does?Meanwhile, Megan Young stood frozen in place, the blood draining from her face. She suddenly looked like she wanted to disappear into her designer boots. Her lips trembled as she approached Jack cautiously, head slightly bowed.“Mr. Sullivan… I… I’m so sorry for earlier,” she stammered. “I didn’t know who you were… I wasn’t trying to be disrespectful—”Jack looked at her like she was a speck of lint on his sleeve.“You weren’t trying to be disrespectful,” he repeated, expression unreadable. “But you were born that way?”Megan
