The Legendary King Of War Returns 0018: You're Under Arrest
"Why did those people help you?" After much contemplation, Savannah arrived at a decision and asked Kian as soon as he got to her.Although she couldn't hear their conversation from where she stood, she had noticed their respectful and submissive demeanor towards Kian.Why did Magistrate Cody, a powerful figure, suddenly appear at the Opening Night Gala and assist Kian in exposing her uncle? What could he gain from helping a fallen heir? Could it have been a coincidence? The more she thought of it, the stranger it felt."They were good friends with my father," Kian answered curtly without batting an eye.It was indeed true. His father had been business acquaintances with some of them, although their relationships were strictly professional. Until Savannah completely forgives him, he can't reveal his real identity to her."I see," Savannah frowned slightly, her confusion easing.It made sense now. Back then, Blackwood's family was at their prime and at the top. Their influence was powe

Meanwhile, at the same time, Kian and Savannah had just arrived at another VIP ward in the hospital. When Savannah pushed the door open, she gasped at the haggard figure on the bed."Father!"She dropped her handbag and ran to the bedside, tears cascading down her face.For five years, her father had suffered so much that he now looked like a shell of his former self. He was almost unrecognizable. At that moment, she was filled with so much guilt."I almost didn't believe it when I got the call," her mother cried, also present in the ward. "Look at what they have reduced your father to."Nathaniel felt disheartened by their tears. His lips parted like he wanted to say something, but he was unable to speak."Mommy," Savannah looked down at Noah when he patted her leg. He had a frown on his face and looked like he was going to cry too.She bent and carried him. "Do you see him, Noah? That's your grandfather. Call him grandpa."She had given birth to Noah after her father was imprisoned,

"Yes," Kian nodded firmly. "Give me your permission to marry your daughter." Nathaniel was silent for a few minutes before he finally sighed, "Fine. You two should get your marriage registered tomorrow morning." Kian's tensed brows eased, but this relief was short-lived as Nathaniel looked at him coldly and snorted. "I am not going to forgive you so easily. I’m only doing this because my daughter's reputation has been ruined thanks to you. You have to bear the consequences of your actions. My daughter shouldn’t have to suffer anymore for your mistakes." Kian's face hardened as he solemnly swore, as if taking an oath on the military grounds. "I'm making a promise to you now that I'll protect your daughter with my life." Nathaniel's expression remained unchanged, but he pointed an unsteady finger at Kian. "I may not be as powerful as you are, but if you ever try to hurt my daughter in any way, I won’t let you off, even if it’s the last thing I have to do!" "There won't be

"Wesley," Kian frowned and looked up when he received no response. He held up the marriage certificate and questioned again, "Tell me, does the camera angle look weird?""Ah... No, sir," Wesley shook his head and lowered the certificate while looking around quickly. People were entering and exiting. Even if they didn't know Kian's real identity, he still felt cautious."Are you—" Kian was still not convinced and wanted to speak but Wesley sighed inwardly, 'What's the use of saying anything now? You already got the certificate and of course you look great but sir, I think it would be shocking if the news got out!'"Sir," He pulled out his phone. "You should see this."This momentarily distracted Kian and he put the certificate away before collecting the phone."Just like you instructed, every media channel has spread the news and it has entered the top ranking of hottest news category. The public tender will be available in two days.""Good," Kian's soft expression disappeared and his

"You think so too? It's simply too strange," Thomas stroked his gray beard with a thoughtful look. "But don't worry. I've sent some of my people to investigate the matter. If the investment bid is genuine, then we will consider joining. It's a rare opportunity."Jonathan's tense expression eased and he smiled, "Great. Then we'll just wait and see what happens for the next few days."Thomas picked up the bowl of fruits and stretched it towards Jonathan with an amicable smile. "As for the invitation cards, It's no problem... We can get those easily. Let's just confirm the news first."They were not concerned about the investment bid itself. In this city, no one could compete with their families for investment. They just needed to verify the authenticity of the news before making any moves."It's been a while since we played chess together. Have you improved since that time? Remember, I completely floored you," Thomas chuckled, changing the topic."Do you think you can win against me ag
The Legendary King Of War Returns 0023: My Second Best Friend
"Don't come any closer," Grandfather Wilson quickly warned him. "Turn on the TV for me." "Yes father," He nodded obediently and turned around only to see the cold look on Douglas' and Veronica's faces. He snorted smugly and walked past them to pick up the remote thinking, 'It doesn't matter if you are a son of this family. In the end, you can only be a messenger and even run around to secure my bail as father requested. You will always remain under me where you belong.' "Good day to the people of Valoria Prime," A newscaster with a bright smile came up on the television as soon as it was turned on. "I'm sure the business world already knows what the buzz in the city is all about. If you don't already know which is unlikely, well, we have great news for you!" Edward stood back and focused on the television attentively. What news was causing a buzz in the business world? What did he miss while he was locked up? "In just two days, Valoria Prime City will host a major event as a
The Legendary King Of War Returns 0024: Accommodate A Freeloader
Savannah walked into the room and emerged with an old blanket and a pillow. "You can sleep here," She told Kian as she dropped them on the floor. Just then, Ida walked out. Her eyes flashed with hatred when she saw Kian and she hissed. "The house is already so cramped and now we have to accommodate a freeloader. Is it me or does the sitting room seem even smaller now?" Kian rubbed his nose awkwardly, knowing she was referring to him as the 'freeloader'. "Mom," Savannah called out in a warning tone. Ida rolled her eyes, feeling more pissed with the entire situation the more she thought of it but her husband already decided. He was quite stubborn; once he decided on something, nothing or no one could change his mind. Her husband and her daughter may have accepted this dirtbag but she will never accept him. So she treated Kian like he was invisible and went directly to Savannah, "Your uncle, Douglas, just called." A frown appeared on Savannah's face. "What did he say?" "He a
The Legendary King Of War Returns 0025: Took Valoria Prime By Storm
The next morning, Valoria Prime was once again thrown into a state of frenzy. News spread out very quickly again that the mysterious business tycoon had added another two hundred billion to the investment and there were even rumors that it was promised that as long as one could attend the bidding event, one would be given a share of the pie regardless of whether you win a bid or not. Some people who had not planned to participate were now exhausting all the connections they had to try and get an invitation card. Some who had already given up due to their inability to get the invitation cards were reinvigorated and changed their minds. Even if they had to grovel at people's feet, they were determined to get the invitation cards now. As Kian went through the news on his phone, his eyes darkened thoughtfully. Now, the Grays and Sinclairs should be at least tempted, right? Four hundred billion investment wasn't a small thing to even the upper class but it was a drop in the bucket

0334: Pay Them A Visit Together
When Roland Harrington finally stopped, he was panting heavily while Tristan lay on the ground like a dog. His face was bruised and battered. His expensive tuxedo was also covered in different footprints. He was in a sorry state. "You worthless piece of trash!" Roland Harrington before wiping off the sweat on his forehead and turning to Kian.In an instant, the furious expression on his face changed as he turned around. What replaced it was a sweet, sickly smile. "Master... No, leader... I sincerely apologize for my grandson's ignorance," he apologized in a low and submissive tone. "He doesn't understand the rules, but I have already taught him a lesson. Please don't hold him to it."Master?Leader?Tristan was taken aback while Charlotte Lane was terrified. They were at the venue of the contests of the ancient martial arts alliance sects, so they understood perfectly what these titles mean.Is this some sort of joke?! Tristan stared at his grandfather baffled. This masked bastar
0332: Let's Catch Up
The spectators exchanged strange looks amongst themselves, with some holding back their laughter. The situation was hilarious. The famous, arrogant heir apparent of the aristocratic Harrington's family was on his knees. What a sight!Even Kian smiled behind his mask. Although people couldn't see his smile, they heard it in his voice as he spoke, "Isn’t it a bit inappropriate to greet me with such a grand gesture on our first meeting or what do you think, Tristan?"His sarcastic and mocking tone snapped Tristan out of his daze immediately. Who the hell does this bastard think he is? How dare he assume a whole heir like him would bow to a lowly bastard?!Tristan flared up immediately, his face turning a deep shade of red. "You bastard! Do you want to be taught a lesson?!"As he shouted, he forced himself to get back on his feet and throw a punch in Kian's direction. But just as he made a move again, a big palm clouded his vision.SMACK!Roland Harrington's wild swing sent Tristan stum
0331: Chose Tristan Over That Man...
Charlotte was still Tristan's girlfriend, and seeing her hurt like this was a huge slap on his face. So even if everyone present, including Charlotte, mistakes his anger for concern and his love for her, to Roland, his grandson's anger was justifiable."Just send someone to handle it. Do you really need to create such a scene here and ask me?'' Roland Harrington scoffed in exasperation."That guy has a strong background!" Charlotte, who had been silent, chose that moment to speak. Her voice was filled with grievance and anger. "Not only did he hurt me, he also nearly crippled the young master of the Faye's family!"The crowd gasped in surprise. What? There was someone that would actually dare to commit these atrocities without any fear for his life?!"Not only that," Charlotte hadn't finished speaking. "He also threatened to publicly humiliate the Faye's family, Smith's family and Hall's family in three days—"WHACK!"Shut up!" Tristan's facial features had hardened as he slapped her
0330: No Big Deal
The spectators immediately stepped back, distancing themselves from the young man who was saying awful things about Charlotte Lane's amputated hands earlier."I asked you to repeat what you said," the iciness in Tristan's eyes and voice deepened as he fixed his gaze on the young man."I... I... I..." The young man looked terrified out of his wits and stuttered, unable to utter a complete sentence.BANG!Footsteps echoed as the five muscular bodyguards in black surrounded him, giving him no room for escape!THUD!The young man trembled and collapsed to the ground on his knees with a loud thud. He bowed severally as he pleaded pitifully, "Tristan, I'm sorry. Please forgive me. I spoke without thinking. Please...."His voice shook as he apologized, and his face had turned pale. But before he could complete his words, Tristand extended a leg with a vicious expression and kicked him!BANG!"Argh!" The young man clutched his stomach, howling in pain as he fell down flat. It didn't stop her
0329: The Favored Heir Apparent
But then Kian thought about it. Now that he is in the imperial capital, his ultimate goal is to uproot those forces behind the aristocratic Blackwood's family that are hiding in the dark.To make headway, he would need a weighty position in the capital. The position of the ancient martial arts alliance leader fits that perfectly. And if things get too complicated, he could just hand over the affairs of the alliance to Augustus Vane. With this thought in mind, Kian's lips curved beneath his mask delightfully. He no longer hesitated. His pale face gained some colors as he clasped his hands in gratitude to the crowd's cheers and bowed.His humble acceptance made the crowd go wild and cheered even louder. He raised his head and stumbled off the ring.As soon as he got out, Rolad Harrington rushed over with a group of some other members and quickly surrounded him."Congratulations, alliance leader!" Roland Harrington was beaming with a smile as he clasped his hands once again. "Thank yo
0328: The New Alliance Leader
Upon hearing the spectators' jeers and mockery, the faces of the remaining elders in the ring turned darker than a gloomy cloud. They all had the same thoughts in their minds. This is all because of this old rascal Grimm. Why did he suddenly withdraw from the contest without a reason?! The position of the ancient martial arts alliance leader was something they all wanted to vie for, although not through unscrupulous methods like Silas Nightingale and his allies. But now, with the public's current opinion, how could they possibly fight for it? If someone were to truly defeat all of them and become the leader, then they would have to endure the disdain of the public's disdain for the rest of their lives! "I also withdraw from the contest!" Another female elder who had been in alliance with Grimm and was fighting back Silas Nightingale's allies earlier raised her voice just before jumping out of the ring. "I won't compete either!" Another elder declared in agreement to her words
0327: Shortsighted
Ambrose Darkmore trembled all over. He raised his head with the last strength he could muster and locked eyes with the person who spoke. His eyes shook when he saw who it was—Roland Harrington. The latter scoffed and shrugged calmly, "Don't give me that look. I'm just making a reasonable expression."'Damn it!' Ambrose Darkmore was so furious his chest was about to burst open. His frustration surged so that his heart ached more. He spat out a mouthful of blood helplessly before—THUD!His lifeless body collapsed on the ground with a dull thump. The sword held up his motionless body in a gory sight.The martial arts prodigy that had made a name as the 'Sword Maniac' in the martial arts community of the imperial capital was literally driven to death not by his sword but rage!The masked figure raised his head in the direction where the members of the aristocratic Harrington's family were occupying and arched his eyebrows at Roland Harrington. What a great assistance!This patriarch of
0326: First In History!
At the ring, Ambrose Darkmore stared blankly at the chaos happening above. What's going on? How could this be happening? He hasn't done anything wrong, so why was he being shunned and labeled as a disgrace?!"It wasn't me! I didn’t do anything! I didn’t—" He roared, desperate to make one last attempt at fixing his ruined reputation.SWOOSH!SWISH!WHOOSH!...All he received in response was a barrage of shoes, water bottles, drink bottles, snacks, and other objects raining down on him."Boo!!!!" Some spectators even ridiculed him. They all witnessed the truth of what happened, didn’t they? There was such undeniable evidence against him, yet he was still trying to prove his innocence! He is truly shameless to the core!In the ring, Ambrose Darkmore's face turned ashen once more. He froze in a spot, not even trying to dodge. He just let the objects hit him.At that moment, he was filled with an overwhelming sense of despair. The reputation of his sect was already in tatters as everyon
0325: Renounce
"Aren't you afraid that this old man will suddenly turn on you all also?!" Kian shouted in desperation.The faces of the three elders contorted into a cruel grin, and one of them retorted, "We are more concerned about seeing you dead first!"Then, the four elders ignored him completely and launched their attacks relentlessly! SWISH! Ambrose Darkmore thrusted his sword forward. His attack was so fierce that his blade pierced right through Kian's left shoulder!But at that same time, another elder was attacking Kian from behind. Kian's eyes curved in a mysterious manner as he reached out and—A strange force seemed to erupt from the masked figure, gripping Ambrose Darkmore's wrist so tightly that he couldn't move!His sharp blade glinted in the light, almost blinding one's eyes. Suddenly, the hair of the elder attacking from behind stood on the end as he screamed in horror, "No!"But before his voice could fade, the sword that had seemingly pierced Kian's left shoulder drove into his
