Everywhere drops dead silent that even if a tiny pin is dropped to the floor, the sound would be clearly heard by all! Everyone is too shocked to react. Their mouths are drop-dead open that they can fit eggs in them, and their eyes are threatening to fall out of their sockets.

No one has ever had such an impact on Shadow. Who is this guy? He had been so fast that they didn't see him move!

They dart around for him and when their eyes settle on him, they pass their hands over their mouths in shock and subconsciously take steps backward.

"You?!"

"You?!"

"Punk!"

"Lucian!"

They exclaim one by one, rubbing their eyes to be sure they are seeing clearly.

"But he died," Shadow is the most taken aback. Do the dead come back to life now?

This is his attack. It is called the death-pill whack. Whenever he really has no interest to go toe-to-toe against an opponent, he uses it and kills the opponent off at a goal. It is one of his best skills and so far, no one has ever been able to survive it. How

    "Thankful?" Lucian scoffs derisively at him and rolls his eyes as he goes on to say, "Lying suits you so well, doesn't it? Well, to burst your bubbles, I don't entertain lies! Never will! Have you forgotten so soon what you said before you struck me? If you have, let me remind you!"You had told me to die now! Why would you say that if you had no intention to kill me? You, what do you take me for? A fool? "Do I look like one of your men? If you can willingly deceive them, do you think you can do the same to me? You had every intention to kill me! Quit trying to save your ego by saying you didn't intend to and were lenient! It sounds so ridiculous when you say it!""You can say whatever you want! I don't fucking care! Besides, we still have a score to settle! Since you've provoked me this time, I won't hesitate to kill you!""Make it snappy because I have my scores to settle with you as well! With all of you!" He glares coldly at every one of them and his eyes dim, a sharp killing fla

  • The Formidable Heir   SHADOW'S DEATH

    "Be careful, Lucian!" Not being able to hold back her emotions, she yells hysterically."You can die now, punk!" Seeing that his kick is almost reaching Lucian and yet he is not making any moves to dodge, Shadow smugly says and puffs out arrogantly."In your dreams! A man like you should know his place!" However, just as that kick is about to land on Lucian's rib, he dashingly drops his hand and clamps down on Shadow's leg, deterring the attack! Something that has never happened in the history of Aurora!"Now go to hell!" At the same time, he leaps into the air and kicks him right in the chest with the same almighty despicable kick!He had been so fast. Shadow didn't expect it at all! Before he can react...CRACK!BOOM!As the crisp sound of bones breaking fills the air, Shadow is hurled away and slammed against the wall before collapsing to the floor.He hastily tries to jerk back up but shouts out in terror and slumps back down."Pfft! Pfft!" He spits out two mouthfuls of blood, his

    "As if that wasn't enough, he declared that no company should hire you! Did you take any action? No! You did nothing! Absolutely nothing! You're nothing but a lowlife and a fucking damned riffraff! What can a lad like you possibly do? "Hah! Someone like you who couldn't do anything to Seth is claiming not to take the Youngs seriously, what do you take us for? Fools?"See punk, we are ready to forget all this ever happened and take Shadow's corpse away without seeking revenge for it. But for that to happen, you must kneel and apologize to us, then hand over Helen to us yourself!"Mickey's words have just struck a nerve in Lucian. His face turns gloomy. How dare they dig into his life? So offensive! He has been trying to forget about Laura, but he had to make him remember her and pour his miseries right in his face!He is so provoked that his body is shaking profusely. If he had not intended to kill Mickey before, he has every urge to do so now! He keeps crossing the line! And what doe

  • The Formidable Heir   DON'T EVEN DARE!

    The statement is shocking. But Lucian has never been one to be easily fooled by words. He should be shocked, but instead, he is eerily calm. He killed Shadow, regardless of whether the conflict was between him and Shadow alone; these are his men; why would they out of the blue, decide not to fight him after he killed their master? He feels they have something eerie up their sleeves! He can't easily be fooled by this. No, he can't.When the burly man notices the doubt on Lucian's face, he smiles bitterly and marries his gaze as he asks, "You don't believe us, Mr. Wood, do you?""I don't. Why should I? Shadow is your master and comrade. He trained you all and probably made you what you are now. I believe you must have devoted yourselves to serving him for the rest of your lives, so why would you spare me when I had just murdered him?" Lucian doesn't hide anything; he expresses himself clearly!"That's because you didn't just kill our master for no reason," one of the other three burly m

    "Are you threatening me, Spider?!" Dani sucks his teeth and his face turns glum. "I'm the Scion of the Youngs! Ain't you afraid of what my family can do to you?!""Why would I be afraid when I'm not alone? Together, we are powerful and invincible!""Hmph! Do you believe my family can't destroy you all? Ah! I can see you really don't take my family seriously! In that case, Spider, if you don't kneel and apologize to me right now, I'll clear your doubt!""Go sit your damn ass in a corner, Dani! No one is kneeling and apologizing to you! For the record, we are not afraid of you or your damn family in the least! We, not interfering with families and staying out of societal ranks doesn't mean we are inferior to any of them! "I thought you of all people should have known that! But since you don't as you are clearly a dummy, I'll state it loud and clear; Dani Young, we are not afraid of your family and will never be! Not now, not ever!"Like, if we are not afraid of the Howards, what makes

  • The Formidable Heir   DROPPED TO HIS KNEES!

    Dani takes a look at Lucian and nibbles on his lower lip as he says reluctantly, "Can you please let us off this time? I promise we will never bother you again!"How quick they are to switch! Chameleon is child's play when it comes to these two! "Well," he shrugs nonchalantly. "Since Helen's family's henchmen are on their way here, I've decided to let them handle everything. You two are far too insignificant for me to bother myself with. Begging me is useless! If you want to beg anyone, then beg her! But before then, I have a question: how did you two get out of jail?"Hearing that Helen's family henchmen will decide their fate, Dani and Mickey are beyond excited. It's just the Howards' dogs, what can they possibly do to them? They don't even need to plead with Helen! As it stands now, they have no reasons to be bothered!They puff out arrogantly as every anxiousness in them vanishes and stand from the floor, their heads held high. Lucian frowns.

    Mr. Howard is the Patriarch of the Howards, a family amongst the first rated with unimaginable power; how can he be kneeling to a young man in his teens who lives in a one-room apartment and appears to have no interesting background? They don't get it!Helen rubs her eyes to make sure she's seeing correctly and it turns out she is! This causes her jaw to drop drastically! She can't believe it! Her father she knows is a man who would never kneel or bow to anyone! He exudes such arrogance that it often feels as if he is the greatest in the world. Since she grew of age to know her father, she has never seen him kneel or bow to anyone, the reverse is always the case. But here is the same man kneeling and bowing to Lucian! The same Lucian she termed a nobody! To top it off, he also apologized to him just because he mistook him for one of the assholes! It's like something out of the movie! Feels like she has been struck by a thunderbolt! It's too unnerving.Mickey and Dani are almost pee

    "Mr. Howard, you seem to be calling for war! For years now, the first-rated families have been staying off each other's tails! I hope you know what your command is about to issue! Can your family bear it when ours retaliate?"As the patriarch of the Howards, shouldn't you think about this carefully? Are you ready for the war you are about to start?""You two started this war the moment you tried to rape my baby girl!" Harper snaps at Dani and glares menacingly at him."What war did we start? We only wanted to have a taste of your daughter! Shouldn't you be happy that prestigious figures like us have interests in your daughter?" Mickey scoffs."You two tried to rape me and you expect my mum to be happy just because you come from powerful families? You two are so shameless!" Helen curses. She stamps her foot and turns to Mr. Howard. "Dad, you must get revenge for me! We cannot, under any circumstances, let them get away with this! Please seek vengeance for me!"Mr. Howard looks at Lucian

  • The Formidable Heir   

    SO EAGER TO GRANT YOUR WISH!

    Perhaps he believes as far as he pushed down his ego and begged, he would undoubtedly be forgiven. After all, Lucian is a man who appears to be easily moved by apologies, regardless if they were genuine or not.But he had got it all wrong this time as Lucian merely scoffs as soon as he finishes putting up the forgive me drama and retorts,"Fancy you kneeling there and yelling I shouldn't do this when you brought it upon yourself. Hah! I've been patient enough with you, but I see you might be taking my benevolence for weakness and dismissing me as a pushover you can snap at and curse whenever you want. "As a result, I might pardon others as they didn't concur or refute you when you said what you said, but I would never pardon you! "Since you've finally succeeded to cross my bottom line, you might as well bear the consequences! Only after you've suffered that would you realize how ruthless I am as a person and know that I'm no pushover!"He sways his gaze to Chester. "Keep away from

    I'M SORRY!

    With each word Lucian says, Cole and his brothers feel a pang in their chests that by the time he is done talking, their chests can't help but begin aching. Simultaneously, their brows crinkle and their face contort in discomfort. This is indeed what they planned to do. They'd suffered so much just because of the useless little girl and her boyfriend.Obviously, there was no way they would have let that lying down. It was just as Lucian said, they'd silently planned in their hearts to seek revenge against him later because they had to verify his identity first but would go ahead to kill the little girl and her boyfriend immediately since they already know their statuses. Like, they had not been planning to let that revenge-seeking cross today.They've always loved serving their revenge hot. But what they never expected is that Lucian will easily figure out their untold plans. A plan they had not even discussed amongst themselves but harbored only in their respective hearts. They

  • The Formidable Heir   

    ISN'T THAT RIGHT?

    'My sister,' as those simple yet powerful words leave Lucian's lips and infiltrate the little girl's eardrums, an overwhelming sensation course through her veins, and her eyes well up with tears. She doesn't know why, but hearing Lucian refer to her as his sister makes her so aroused and emotional.Maybe because she never had a big brother, let alone one who would stand up for her so selflessly. What aggravates her emotions even more is the fact that Lucian knows nothing about her. Like, he has never met her before yet he is so willing to go to the ends of the world for her. The knowledge that she now has a stranger as a big brother and a powerful one at that is quite weird yet so overwhelming and soothing."Thank you, thank you so much," she can't help but express her heartfelt gratitude. "I'm really grateful!" Her eyes sparkle and she pouts, looking much like a pouting kitten.Lucian is instantly overwhelmed with the strong urge to laugh as the little girl is so amusing right now w

  • The Formidable Heir   

    DO I NEED TO TEACH YOU?!

    Callum's brows furrow and his face contort in displeasure. At this moment, he seemingly appears to be both perplexed and displeased. According to what the little girl said, she accepted his apologies. He is sure he heard that right, so why should he apologize to her again, or could it be that the girl was merely being sarcastic?But it doesn't seem that way. In that case, that can only mean she meant it and that Lucian is the one who is twisting her words for whatever reason. An acid taste creeps into his tongue and he clenches his fists.Since Lucian now calls the shots, he must be doing it on purpose to trample on his ego and shatter it if possible.His nose flares up in rage and he furiously turns, seemingly as if he wants to pick a fight with him, but as his gaze lands on Rome and Chester's murderous faces, a chill runs down his spine and he jerks twice as if he had been electrocuted."I-""You are twisting my words!" Before he can say anything, the little girl says helplessly an

  • The Formidable Heir   

    APPEARS YOU WANT TO DIE!

    The little girl is gaping at Callum as if she is seeing him for the first time and her heart is thumping so strongly, loudly, and quickly, a cloudburst of blood surging through her veins in tides upon tides. Who would have guessed that Callum, one of the burly figures who seemed so powerful and tyrannical to her would be reduced to this?She is so stunned at the sudden twist in events that her jaw is practically dropping to the floor, and she doesn't in the slightest know how to handle it. Regardless, she is just a pauper who has spent her entire life in the slums and is at the bottom of society. As a result, her self-esteem has taken a significant hit, plummeting to an all-time low. And this has had so many negative effects on her, one of which is the fact that she has, over the years, grown accustomed to being the one begging others, and with the exception of her boyfriend, who begs her occasionally when he offends her, no one else has ever begged her. One could imagine just how bi

    I'M SORRY!

    "That's very easy," Lucian grins darkly. "Don't they like to fuck anything in a skirt? We can as well have them try something new!" "Something like what, My Lord?" Rome doesn't even let a second pass as he quickly asks, his eyes gleaming with so much curiosity in them."Something like fucking the same gender!" Lucian sneers and passes his tongue over his lower lip, exuding a sinister aura."Wow!" Rome gasps and an ecstatic smile breaks out on his face. "You sure deserve to be My Lord!" He proclaims with so much reverence, admiration, and pride in his voice and bows 90°. Yes, this is the formidable Python Lord he has pledged to serve for the rest of his life! He sure lives up to his name!"I have no doubt that this is a nice blood-rising plan, My Lord, but there are no new guys here, so even if that was possible, who would they lay with?" Chester twists his brows disconcertingly as he implores, seemingly not that enthusiastic yet."How can you be so slow-witted?" Lucian frowns. "Do the

    BUT HOW DO WE ACHIEVE IT?

    "Such a bunch of cowards!" Rome hisses, glaring disdainfully at Cole and his brothers. "For experts with such murderous auras, I assumed you guys would be at least interesting and hard nuts to crack but turns out you three are so pathetic and a disgrace to your expertise! You don't deserve to be called experts at all as you are just a useless bunch of scared mice! "Gosh, you three might be the death of me if I don't take time because you infuriate me to no end!" Rome is so provoked that his babbling spirit suddenly takes over him and he loses rationality and begins babbling and babbling at the top of his lungs, his eyes bloodshot and his fists clenched so tightly that they now bright red and might start bleeding anytime soon if he doesn't control his rage and loosen up."Buddy," seeing this, Chester doesn't waste a second as he smacks him on the head, yelling, "Earth to me!"Rome shudders violently, almost dropping to the floor, but Chester is fast to catch him and steady him.

    WITHIN AN INCH OF THEIR LIVES

    "But I've already been struck before," before Carl and Callum can bring themselves to say anything, Cole, who had assumed he wouldn't be included in the beating since he has already been struck by Rome and suffered a vital blow, says in a barely audible whisper, his voice full of so much reverence and his face flustered.It's not that he respects Lucian, or fears him, nah, not at all. To him, Lucian is still a lad who doesn't deserve his respect. So what if he might be an heir to a top-tier family? Does he have what it takes to command respect from a man of his skills?Hmph! He's just a fragile heir who only has his family to rely on, and without them, he is nothing. He has never taken all these heirs seriously because the majority of them are utterly useless and incompetent. They can't even fight themselves out of danger and would always depend on their guards.Their very existence irritates him and as such his reverence towards Lucian just now is only because of Rome and Chester at h
