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
The Legendary King Of War Returns 0031: Do One Thing For Me
A hush fell upon the hall as every eye turned to Kian's direction once again. The silence was only for a second before someone laughed. "Pfft!" The entire hall erupted with laughter and they all looked at Kian like he had gone crazy. Savannah couldn't hold back her anger any longer and yelled at him. "Have you gone completely crazy? Why don't you just sit quietly and keep your mouth shut? Haven't you said enough?" "I'm telling the truth. If I don't attend the event, the investment won't even take place," Kian answered firmly. Everyone was surprised at how he managed to remain so calm while telling a blatant lie. How could someone this shameless exist? "Wait, has penury gotten to your brain? Who do you think you are huh?" One relative snorted at him. "They need to beg you to attend the bidding event huh? Who are you? Why do you attach great importance to yourself?" "No, brother... I think he's being delusional now. He must think of himself as the tycoon that organized t
The Legendary King Of War Returns 0032: Divorce My Daughter And Leave!
Wesley's eyes clashed with the interior rear view mirror again as his brows arched. The Wilsons? Isn't that the family of the general's wife? Did they offend the general again? The latter looked furious. No matter how curious Wesley was, he didn't dare to ask questions and simply nodded, "Understood sir. I'll pass your information to the security team." Kian nodded and retracted his gaze. "If they try to create a scene, have them dealt with severely." "Yes sir!" "Drop me at the nearest stop to the house." When Kian returned to the house, Ida was waiting for him with a murderous expression. As soon as he walked in, she unleashed her fury. "How do you still have the guts to return to this house? You useless prick! This was our chance to reunite and return to our family but you ruined that for us! Who do you think you are to run your mouth off like that?" Savannah was silent but her beautiful face was gloomy. She was utterly disappointed by Kian's performance back there. Sh

0307: A Fluke
It is important to note that Peter isn't just an ordinary leader of a second tier sect. Even among all the leaders of second tier sects, his combat strength was at least ranked among the top five!"No... It can't be!""Impossible!""This useless Peter must have let his guard down!""Yes, that's right. How could this have happened if he didn't?!"In the ring, the other leaders turned pale and staggered back in shock. Their faces were filled with disbelief. Their combat strength and abilities were on par with Peter's own.

0306: Horrifying!
"You little bastard! Come down here and die!" "Don't keep us waiting!""I won't let you go today!"The angry roars reverberated through the square once again. This time, Kian said nothing else. He simply collected a spear from Augustus Vane.Under the gaze of thousands spectators and several other online viewers as the site was already fixed, he held the spear upside down and descended down, heading into the ring!"Brother, what do you think of this man?"In the area originally designated for the Dark Legion sect which the members of the Harrington's family now occupy, Roland Harrington leaned in and asked an elderly man beside him as he watched Kian's tall figure."Arrogant, reckless and ignorant of his own limitations. In other words, incapable," The elderly man with hair full of white hair beside Roland snorted in an indifferent tone."What do you think the outcome of this battle will be then? How long will it last?" Roland Harrington reached forward to pluck a grape from the tray
0305: Is It Okay If Someone Dies...?
"Augustus, since you will rather save your face than that of your sect, I will gladly help you to care for that haughty punk beside—" The leader of the Iron Fist sect was growling arrogantly when Kian suddenly interrupted him."I have a question."He turned to Silas Nightingale and the other elders of the council when he said this, paying little or no attention to the man in the ring who in his own opinion was simply barking like a scared dog!"Go ahead," Silas Nightingale scowled at him coldly. "Let's have it."Kian's smirk disappeared and a serious expression masked his face. He looked almost innocent as he asked, "Is it okay if someone dies in this sect master battle?"PSST!A chorus of gasps filled the air as a wave of shock rippled through the spectators. This brat really has some nerves asking such a question!Silas Nightingale's face turned as dark as the bottom of a charcoal pot. His fingers itched by his side to slap Kian into silence! But after taking a deep breath and stru
0304: Absurd And Unacceptable!
In the ring, the facial expression of the leader of the Iron Fist sect darkened instantly. Not only him, several others too."Who are you?" Silas Nightingale of the number one top sect, Heavenly Flame questioned coldly with a grim look.Kian tilted his head up at him and casually told him, "The new leader of the Sacred Shadow sect, Kieran.""Haha!" The leader of the Iron Fist sect in the ring laughed maniacally. "This useless, old bastard Augustus has already given up and accepted defeat. You are just a—""When did I ever say I was giving up or admitting defeat?" Augustus' calm voice interrupted him before he could complete his words.A hush fell over the crowd as they processed Augustus' words. Then there was a collective gasp as realization dawned on them. Augustus had truly never said such a thing!He never accepted defeat or gave up. They simply assumed based on his cowardly action and he actually let them misunderstand... This man!"This battle is the second stage of the sect's c
0303: Seal All Exits!
To the elders of the alliance council, the duty of a martial artist is to defend the honor of their sect, no matter the circumstances. Even if the martial artist was severely injured... Even if he could barely move... Even if he had lost his strength to fight. Even if he was on death bed!As long as there was still life in them, they should fight to protect the honor of their sect with their very last breath! And a sect leader? He should be even more resolute!However, Augustus' cowardly attitude before the battle has severely contradicted their principles. To call him a disgrace to the martial community was even an exaggeration. He is condemnation to mankind! Among all the spectators present today, apart from the sects, there were at least tens of thousands of ordinary civilians. Not to mention the countless cameras and drones that were rolling and circulating, broadcasting the sect contest live!This contest must be watched by several hundreds or even thousands of viewers now.

0302: A Waste Of Existence
These opportunities were unimaginable. They have to give this contest their best. While they were thinking about the wealth ahead, the members of the aristocratic Harrington's family took their seats.They occupied the empty area that was initially designated for the Dark Legion sect. No one even cared about the absence of that sect. Just then, the result of the lot drawn between Calvin and the other qualified leaders of the second tier sects was announced.Unexpectedly, the first leader to challenge Augustus Vane was the leader of a second tier sect known as the Iron Fist sect. He was already at the peak level of a martial grandmaster. The sect master battle officially began since the lots were drawn."Let the contending sect master step into the arena," Silas Nightingale who was the host of the contest announced in his booming voice. The leader of the Iron Fist sect stomped his feet on the ground and within a few minutes, he was already in the arena which was the center of the squ
0301: An August Visitor
The central square gradually grew silent with chatter occasionally rising from different ends as people waited for Calvin and the other leaders to draw lots in order to choose the one that would challenge the leader of the Sacred Shadow sect, Augustus Vane.Just as they were impatiently waiting, a hearty, thunderous laughter resounded from the crowd around the entrance. "It looks like I'm just in time as the battle hasn't started yet!"Silence washed over the square as people looked in the direction of the loud voice. Crowd parted ways, revealing a vigorous man in an exquisite, golden coloured robe. He strode into the square confidently.Behind him was an entourage of dozens of men and women. They were all also dressed sophisticatedly, exuding a powerful aura of wealth and nobility."My goodness!" Gasps rose in the crowd like a symphony."That's... That's... That's..." This spectator choked, seemingly unable to complete her words."That's the patriarch of the aristocratic Harrington'
0300: Brutal And Spectacular!
When it was Augustus Vane's turn to speak, he opened his mouth. But just as he did this, Silas Nightingale interrupted him."Fine, since you all agree for the sect master's battle to begin early, the elder council have accepted your request!" His calm voice rang out, directly cutting Augustus off.Instantly, everyone exchanged a look with their neighbors. They all saw what Silas just did. They saw how he dismissed Augustus as unimportant and didn't even let him speak! Wow, the elders council seems to really be cutting Augustus off.The formerly revered leader of the Sacred Shadow sect was now a walking disaster! At that moment, many gleeful and mocking gazes turn in the direction of the Sacred Shadow's tent.But when they saw the reactions of the members of the sect, they were taken aback. The twenty or more disciples, with a few injured ones, looked so calm and surprisingly unfazed by Silas' words.Even Augustus who had just been publicly humiliated showed no signs of anger and was e
