"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
The Legendary King Of War Returns 0026: Repeat Your Words
"Brother," Edward's face also appeared on the screen and he bowed. "I acted foolishly and unwise as an elder brother and no amount of apology can erase what I have done but I'm sincerely sorry." Nathaniel's face darkened and he didn't say a word. He appeared to try to say something but no words left his lips and he could only shake his head. "Alright... Alright... We won't disturb you any longer. Have a rest. We will come over to visit you and Edward will personally tender another apology to you," Grandfather Wilson broke the ice. "Father..." A frown appeared on Edward's lips as his face snapped up. He wanted to say something but the glare he received from his father shut him up. He watched as the phone was returned to Savannah and the call was disconnected. They had prepared such a grand feast solely because of Nathaniel and now, he wasn't even here. How will they ask him to drop the charges against him then? What was the use of putting up such a good show when his life was
The Legendary King Of War Returns 0027: Don't Interfere In Our Family's Affairs!
The terrifying expression on Kian's face subsided and he dropped the knife. Another table was arranged for him by the side and he sat down calmly. Everyone soon forgot about the argument and the feast started. They were surprisingly friendly to Ida and Savannah, making them feel at ease gradually. They even made small conversations and offered them the best of the delicacies laid out. Soon, a little smile appeared on Savannah's face. Although she held a grudge against them, she hasn't felt any familial affection for such a long time so she lowered her guard. Besides, her mother also seemed happy for a while. When the meal was drawing closer to the end, grandfather Wilson chose that moment to speak. "Ida, you and your family have suffered over the years. We all owe you an apology." The hall quietened when he spoke. "Yes, sister-in-law," Bridget gave her an apologetic smile. "My husband owes you and brother-in-law an apology. We are sorry." "I'm sorry," Edward stood and cho

Jasmine also felt proud. She linked her arm around Henry's arm and smiled shyly. "Grandfather, I'm sorry I couldn't visit you at the hospital. I was on a trip to Milan with Henry." The relatives turned envious at her words again. "Oh my God! Milan?" "He really spoils her." "Just look at how he dotes on her. How dreamy!" Some maids walked in just then, carrying different bags with designer logos. Everyone craned their necks to see what was in it as they laid them on the table. "Grandfather," Jasmine pointed at the bags. "Although I couldn't visit you at the hospital, Henry had these tonics and vitamin supplements flown from abroad for you. I heard they are very good for your health and will even make you feel younger." Grandfather Wilson's eyes curved as gasps rang out in the hall. He looked very pleased and proud of his grand-daughter. This is why she is his favorite. She is so thoughtful and intelligent unlike someone who chose to forgive and be with a jerk. "Not onl
The Legendary King Of War Returns 0029: The Gap Is Immeasurable
"Oh really," Jasmine's smile didn't fade and even widened. "Why have you been hiding it then? Show us what you have prepared." "Will it be as impressive as the one brother Henry brought?" One younger relative quipped. "Shut up. You think too highly of this wretched man. How can he present a gift more exquisite than the one Henry has brought?" Someone quickly cautioned him. Savannah frowned as she stared at Kian. She knew better than anyone that he didn't have money or the time to prepare a gift so how could he lie so confidently? Thinking of it, she remembered that she had seen a bag in his hands earlier but didn't pay any attention to it. She only remembered when he brought it out and placed it on the table. Seeing that he wasn't joking, all eyes focused on him as they were curious to see what the pauper had to offer. Right before everyone, Kian brought out an old, plain, undecorated box to the table. When he opened it, everyone could see the set of tea cups with cracked g
The Legendary King Of War Returns 0030: It's Just A Small Invite
Even though Kian sat down quietly as instructed, he still managed to draw attention to himself. Everyone laughed at him again and Ida felt tired. Maybe they should just save themselves some faces now and quietly leave. However, just as everyone was talking about the investment bid happily, Douglas raised a question. "Father, don't you think it's too strange that the mysterious tycoon chose Valoria Prime of all cities to begin his investment project? Valoria Prime is not a small city but it is only a second tier city. It is nothing compared to other Valorian cities" Voices quietened at his words and eyes were on him. "It is not a transportation center like the cities in Valoria east, a trade center like the cities in Valoria Central or an entertainment zone like the cities in Valoria West so why will a tycoon suddenly want to invest billions of dollars here?" "Are you insinuating that there might be a problem with the investment bid?" Grandfather Wilson's brows knitted. "Wha

0251: Fallen So Low
THUD!THUD!THUD!Each step Brax's disciple took forward made the ground tremble and the stones on the grass clattered against each other. It was almost like when a giant was walking.Not to mention that this disciple is very sturdy and heavily built, the sword on his shoulder must weigh more than a hundred pounds.He really gave off an oppressive aura that was certain to scare the enemy. After all, he was also a martial arts expert who was no less weaker than Theron.However after taking a few steps forward, he suddenly came to a stop. His brows furrowed in confusion as he looked at the people in front of him.Aren't these people of the Sacred Shadow sect supposed to be cowering in fear now? Isn't this weak, an old bastard supposed to be on his knees pleading for his life to be spared? Why does it seem like contrary to what was expected, these people seem not to have an ounce of fear at all?There was no expression of fear on their faces. If he didn't know better, he would say they w
0250: Are You Seeking Death?!
Although the faces of their assailants were hooded that unfortunate day, the disciple could remember there was something familiar about the leader of the hoodlums. Now he knows why. The leader of those hoodlums the other day was none other than Brax!"You old bastard, how dare you talk so arrogantly?!" The disciple couldn't hold himself back and directly yelled at Brax.There was no proof or evidence but he was very certain the leader of the assailants that day was this evil Brax!Brax turned to his direction when he heard his angry words. He arched a brow and sneered, "Theron, I heard you have some difficulty training and you are critically injured. Seeing you standing now, I assume your injuries are almost healed now?"The provocation in his words was obvious. Theron's face reddened with anger and he growled, "Brax, are you seeking death?!"CLING!Without waiting for a response, Theron grabbed a beautifully crafted steel spear from the weapons rack and fiercely thrusted the weapon t
0249: Rules Are Meant To Be Broken
Then if a low level sect which has previously won the first stage also goes ahead to win the second stage which is the battle of the sect masters, they will replace the high level sect that lost and even have the chance to take over the sect.This was a huge opportunity for the low level sects. Who didn't want to climb up the ladder and become prominent? Thus, the low level sects began preparations.Eyes fell on the Sacred Shadow sect which was already a topic of rumours. According to the rumours, it was the weakest and easiest target for the low level sects. But if any of the low level sect was to go against Augustus Vane, their sect must have first won the sect disciples battle. Because of this, days after the announcement of the Sects contest spread, the remaining twenty five disciples of the Sacred Shadow sect were ambushed and attacked.Only Cyprus, who was too occupied taking care of Augustus Vane and rarely stepped out of the sect, was spared. The remaining disciples of the s
0248: A Friendly Sects Contest
In the past, in a bid to cover up the truth about the sect's condition and his illness, Augustus had agreed with his disciples not to receive any guests into the sect.They simply refused all guests. So this unexpected and sudden visit from Brax was bad news. Usually, the disciples guarded the main entrance of the sect hall day and night to prevent intruders.Of course, people who might have been suspicious might have tried to break in but thinking about the fact that what if the sect's master Augustus Vane wasn't injured like the rumours say, it would cause huge trouble for them and their sect.It was because of the fear of bringing trouble upon themselves that Augustus' illness had managed to remain a secret for ages and only spread as little as the rumours could go without proof.But today, because of Kian's display and teaching, most of the disciples who were supposed to be guarding the sect were attracted and distracted. Therefore, there was no one guarding the sect as usual whic
0247: The Dark Legion Sect
Fine, he said he joined the military but at the least, he would have just achieved the rank of a Sergeant now. But reaching the apex of martial arts and achieving the war god level seemed very unbelievable?Augustus sighed as he thought of this. He might have been bedridden for more than a decade but he had once been at a peak level also. He is a grandmaster himself. He knows how hard it is to level up in the martial arts world.Augustus is not a genius and it took him more than forty years to become the grandmaster he is now. It will take a genius half of those years to achieve the same rank.What about the former leader of the Martial Arts Alliance that was killed? He was a supreme Heavenly Warrior. He looked like he was seventy and had so much vigor but he was already over eighty years old.Among the other well-known heavenly warriors also, the youngest one was at least forty years old. The Legendary King of War however was already at the war god level. This level is similar to the
0246: A Weak Scholar
To think that they would be able to see that supreme figure with their own eyes like this was shocking. The disciples of the Sacred Shadow sect were in disbelief as they looked at Kian in a daze. It felt surreal.Cyprus, who was standing beside Augustus Vane, couldn't control his emotions. He trembled in joy. He just had a duel with Kian and was even fortunate to receive guidance from him.If what Master Augustus just said is really true then the fight with Kian would be the greatest honor Cyprus has ever received in his life.There was silence in the yard as all the disciples watched Kian eagerly, impatiently waiting for a response. A confirmation... Anything...But Kian remained calm and gave no response. Their patience gradually wore out. They exchanged a look amongst themselves. What's going on?After a moment of contemplation, Kian turned to Wesley, "Do me a favor and run an errand for me."Since he was going to expose his identity, he needs to provide some convincing evidence so
0245: He Was Supreme
Although everyone had just witnessed the strength of Kian's combative power, they still found it hard to believe that he could have actually attained such rank at a young age."Haha! A heavenly warrior?" Wesley suddenly burst into laughter as if he had just heard the funniest joke of the century.Everyone exchanged a look amongst themselves wondering what was so funny. Wesley laughed until tears came out from the corner of his eyes. Finally, he stopped, holding his stomach that was beginning to hurt from laughing too much."My Lord, His Majesty has personally killed at least ten heavenly warriors!"AH!Gasps echoed in the courtyard. The disciples looked at Kian like he was a demon and they all shuddered. Wesley's sentence was as light as a gentle breeze but the force behind it was not one to be reckoned with.Normally, it is difficult to kill even someone who has achieved the peak rank of the Martial Battle Master level which was even a lower rank compared to Martial Battle Warrior, M
0244: Recite The Oath
"Master, please don't talk like that. I'll really feel bad!" Someone from the crowd shouted."Since the moment we enter this sect, we have pledged our allegiance to you.""Yes, who will recite the oath with me?"Kian looked up in surprise as the disciples stepped forward and placed their left palms on their chest. Their loud voices echoed in the courtyard as they recited their oath."We have become the disciples of the Sacred Shadow sect today! To live or die together! To advance or retreat together! To defeat or surrender together!"The disciples dropped their hands with a smile. Someone chose that moment to say, "Master is our teacher for a day but our father for a lifetime!""Yes!" Everyone behind him cheered.Kian was pleasantly surprised and relieved. It's good to know that all this time that Augustus has been suffering, he has never been alone. He's got loyal people around him to bear and carry the weight of his pain with them. All these years, these people supported and formed
0243: Sexual Orientation
To think that from the beginning to that moment, Kian only used his physical strength. He didn't even use any internal energy. He has been suppressing his internal energy. He had suppressed his strength and internal energy, lowering himself to Cyprus' rank.However, even then, Cyprus still couldn't resist at all. He didn't even get the chance to touch a hair on Kian's head and was completely defeated.What kind of rank has Kian attained exactly? What was the true level of his strength? Cyprus dared not even imagine or think of it.Not only him, everyone else in the courtyard except Wesley were in a daze. They were reflecting and analyzing Kian's moves. They were also trying to comprehend his definition of the true nature of the spear techniques.Needless to say, even Augustus Vane who had been practicing martial arts for decades has learnt and benefited greatly from Kian's teaching."I, Cyprus of the Sacred Shadow sect, pay my respects to you!"Cyprus, now in a pitiful state, suddenly
