"Yes! I was just— ah, what are you doing?!" "Are you so dumb that you don't understand? Molestation and now assault. Do you know how many years this can get you in prison? Oh, I forgot... That place seems to be like home to you." "Is this all? I have to say, you made a big mistake... Birdbrained women like you are not my type." Margaret was dumbfounded when these voices suddenly resonated in the air. Kian was holding up a phone. She panicked and instantly forgot about covering herself. "Stop him!" But no one moved as the recording continued playing till the last bit of the conversation. Margaret didn't know where to hide her face. "Do you still want to call the police?" Kian looked at the stupefied men calmly. "I can prove my innocence. I'm afraid someone else will be getting into trouble instead." "I can't believe this," The manager was exasperated. Holding back his pain, he glared at Margaret angrily. So he suffered a broken wrist because this stupid woman wanted to use
The Legendary King Of War Returns 0054: He Meant... The Ultimate Boss
The customers began to point accusing fingers at Kian and also started murmuring. Nicholas' face darkened and his cold gaze rested on Margaret.He didn't know who this employee was as she was just a small employee who wouldn't have been privileged to even meet him if it wasn't because he had to rush over after receiving Wesley's call.He wanted to personally welcome Kian and appreciate him but he didn't expect to see such a scene as soon as he arrived. No wonder Margaret was still unknown, someone like her was bound to die from ignorance!CLAP!A loud sound resounded in the showroom as Nicholas slapped Margaret. Her face immediately swelled up like that of a pig and she stumbled, falling to the ground.The sales attendants were shocked and no one dared to speak. Even the customers who were gossiping loudly quietened."I have never met someone as stupid as you. Who hired you?" Margaret was dealt another heavy blow. This was the second time someone was calling her stupid today, not to
The Legendary King Of War Returns 0055: Don't Get Involved
"Give me that," Veronica snatched the phone from her son and read the bold words displayed on the phone screen, her eyes widening as she did this. Gasping slightly, she looked up, "Honey! It's true! Pinnacle Entertainment has indeed gone bankrupt."Douglas removed his reading glasses and remained silent. Julian ruffled his hair and spoke thoughtfully, "First, they didn't win the investment bid last night which was quite strange. And today, they have declared bankruptcy. Father, do you suspect foul play?"Douglas had the urge to shake his head at their curious gazes. Didn't they understand that all this is happening because someone from Pinnacle Entertainment must have offended a big shot at the investment bid last night?But who could the big shot be? There weren't many people in Valoria Prime city who could bring Langston down like this. And the only person that came to Douglas' mind was—Knock!Knock!The consecutive knocks on the door disrupted his thoughts. He looked up as his wif
The Legendary King Of War Returns 0056: What's The Big Occasion?
Even a raging storm couldn't be compared to the anger welling in Savannah's heart. These were people her father had dedicated his entire life to.Heck, she had even felt guilty all these years that she dragged the entire family into mud when her scandal broke out. These were the same people who ridiculed and mocked Kian the other day.Now their behaviors suddenly changed when they discovered he wasn't the useless son-in-law they thought he was. Their sudden familial affection was just a joke!A calm voice suddenly broke through her troubled thoughts. "We won't go if you don't want us to go."She looked up and the anger in her eyes faded when she saw Kian resting against the wall. She hadn't even heard him walk in. Why did he come after her?"How long have you been standing there?""Long enough to hear the invitation."Savannah sighed and suddenly felt ashamed of her grandfather's words. That old man was willing to bootlick his grandson in-law if it generated money."If you don't want
The Legendary King Of War Returns 0057: Accept Our Apologies
But just as this young man extended the car key to Kian, someone smacked his palm. He looked up with an aggrieved expression only to see his elder brother stepping forward with a fawning expression. "Cousin in-law, please forgive my little brother. Take my key instead. I just bought a Lexus LC 500 yesterday." Upon seeing what the two brothers were doing, other relatives also stepped out and stretched their keys, talking one after the other. "No, a Jaguar XJ is more suitable for a Lord like you." "How about the Audi RS Q8 I just ordered? Do you like that model instead?" "If you want, my darling nephew, uncle will sell the company under his name and get you a Maserati instead!" Within a minute, several key fobs of many powerful exotic cars were presented before Kian. He just had to reach out and choose one. To the Wilsons, it didn't matter if they had to sell their companies or properties to get him a car, it was nothing compared to gaining the favor of a multi billionaire
The Legendary King Of War Returns 0058: Just A Representative
"Grandfather, what is this?" Savannah looked skeptical as she collected the document and flipped the pages over."That is the ownership agreement of your art gallery. It's the same as you left it. I don't have anything else more valuable than this to give you."Savannah's fingers trembled as she stared hard at the document in her hands. Those years when she was kicked out, wasn't the gallery handed over to Jasmine? Now her grandfather was actually giving it back so easily."It was a mistake to take away this gallery from you but now, it will return to the rightful owner. Hurry up and sign the documents," Grandfather Wilson motioned with a smile.Jasmine sat by the side with a happy expression but she was actually clenching her fingers under the table in fury. How could her gallery be given to this bitch?Wasn't she always the favorite grand-daughter? Everything suddenly changed and now Savannah is everyone's favorite all because she managed to snag a wealthy tycoon.Jasmine looked at
The Legendary King Of War Returns 0059: Fooled Us All!
"Hahaha!" Edward burst into laughter and wiped off the tears from the rims of his eyes. "Nephew in-law, you are trying to test us, right? You are trying to see if we are reliable. That's a funny joke!" After hearing his words, the heartbeats of the other Wilson's family members returned to normal and they also laughed heartily. For a second, they almost had a heart attack. This son-in-law is really commendable. Is this how billionaires act? Meanwhile, Kian's eyes squinted; it seemed they didn't take him seriously. "Nephew in-law," Another relative called out. "Five hundred million is not a small investment. We assure you. If you help us, we will show you just how trustworthy we can be!" "Yes! We will be your most reliable ally!" Another affirmed and everyone voiced their agreement one after the other. "Please, forgive our previous behaviors. We are not usually like that." "We were blinded by our greed. From now on, you are one of us. We won't treat you in that manner ever
The Legendary King Of War Returns 0060: Completely Ruin His Reputation
The Wilson's family had spent a lot of money in order to please Kian and gain his favor. But turns out they had been bootlicking a fake all along! Furious eyes turned in Kian's directions, wishing they could kill him on the spot. Edward, who was still kneeling in front of Kian, had the ugliest expression. Just thinking of how he had swallowed his pride and lowered his head to a younger man made his blood boil with rage. "The heck!" He stood up furiously and pointed at Kian. "Why the fuck were you pretending to be him when you are just a fake?! Why were you even acting like an important person? You are not even worthy of being compared to an animal! How dare you?!"As he spoke, some saliva escaped from his mouth and splashed on Kian's cloth. The latter's lips curled up in disgust and his icy eyes rested on Edward."Watch how you speak to me.""What are you going to do huh?" Edward laughed angrily and cussed. "You fucking bastard!""I am the representative of the big tycoon. Can you r

"The sound of the horror you feel just before your death. That one you made just now—" Kian grinned like he had just saved the world. "—was my favourite sound. It's the sound I love to hear the most."Kian stepped closer and crouched till he could look the dying man directly in the eye. He patted his hair which appeared to be the only place that survived the metal shards."Ugh!" Axel groaned and convulsed painfully. But Kian's grin only widened as he informed him in a chilly tone, "Be rest assured. You are not alone. Brax and his fellow disciples will be waiting for you on the way to hell when you close your eyes. It's not good to keep them waiting as they have been waiting for a long time."Axel trembled all over after hearing this. Even at his time of death, he wondered, 'Who is this monster?'"Go on. Also, don't forget to extend my greetings to them," Kian's words felt like the last decree told to someone about to be executed.The moment he stopped talking, Axel's head tilted and
0267: Who Are You?!
Wesley and Kian exchanged a look. The former got weird vibes from Axel's sinister gaze. 'Huh, general, I think I need saving.'Axel didn't miss a step forward as he continued, "First, the soft moans of a woman, then the pleasurable groans of a man and lastly, the helpless cries of someone in despair.""Hahaha!" Axel's men threw their heads back and laughed. They all understood his words. Their boss seems to have found his new boy toy.Jackal's lips curled into a frown as he looked at the men laughing. Axel's words sounded weird for some reason. The pleasurable groans of a man?"Ah," He gasped softly when realization dawned on him. His eyes narrowed in disgust. He knew Axel had a reputation for being lustful but he never knew he had this dirty nature.But then Jackal shrugged. It doesn't matter as long as Axel keeps his own end of the deal. As long as he makes these two bastards pay for what they have done, it doesn't matter even if he imprisons Wesley to be his boy toy.Axel's eyes wr
0265: Sounds I Love To Hear
Jackal gulped in fear, feeling less convinced with his own words. Working with someone like Axel was like going into the lion's den.He knew that Axel will really do as he has just said and hang up his severed head at the town square if those people never show up. Although the Martial Arts Alliance had set some rules that prohibited martial artists from killing ordinary citizens, Axel doesn't seem to care about those rules.To a martial artist, accidentally killing someone or more people would only warrant at most a minor punishment. The lives of martial artists were more important to the Alliance than that of ordinary citizens."Axel, don't worry. I promise you they'll show up," Jackal's voice trembled slightly as he tried to assure Axel.The latter nodded and wanted to pass instructions to his men when two figures suddenly appeared at the entrance of the alley. Jackal's eyes widened with recognition. It was the men from the food street walking side by side! "Axel, look, it's them,
0265: Ruthless Slayer
When Kian and Wesley got out of the sect, the town was still bustling with activities although it was still very early in the morning. "We'll head to Garrett first. I remember he told me he runs a hotel. We could stay there first and then also ask him about the wedding date," Kian suggested as they walked into the town. Wesley nodded without objections and quickly followed his lead. Meanwhile, in a dimly lit alley, there were several men armed with weapons like knives, guns and even clubs. They were all huddled in one corner and all seemed to be asleep except a few of them.Among them, a man wrapped with thick gauze all over was assisted to the front by another man. The bandaged man was the thug, Jackal. The one Cyprus had beaten up, leaving him broken at the food street earlier that day.With all the bandages wrapped around him like a mummy, Jackal was barely recognizable and he looked ridiculous. His dark eyes watched straight out of the alley without blinking. They were filled wi
0264: He Beat Me Up... Again
"Cough! Cough!" Wesley choked and quickly grabbed a cup of water. When he regained his composure, he turned to Kian with eyes as wide as saucers.He couldn't believe there was actually someone that beat up the general. Well, that was when he was younger but still—"He probably didn't know about your identity, right?""No," Kian shook his head. "He only found out the next day after I cried to my parents to have his family thrown out of our rental home."Wesley laughed smugly and winked, "Then, he must have come to grovel at your feet and plead."The smug smirk on Wesley's face was wiped off by Kian's words, "No. He actually beat me up again."Wesley's jaws dropped. He turned off the stove because the soup was starting to burn and turned around abruptly. "What?"Kian laughed at the recollection of the past. "Yes, he beat me up again and then dared me to go running to my parents to kick his family out of Valoria Prime this time since we were so powerful."Now Wesley held his stomach and
0263: A Childhood Friend
[SAVANNAH]Kian's fingers hovered over the caller ID that was displaying on his phone's screen. He opened up the call record and realized there were two calls from his wife just some hours ago.The last call seemed to have gone on for some minutes. Kian's fingers flew to his lips and he facepalmed. "My goodness, what did you say?" He whispered to himself. He couldn't recall anything from his conversation with Savannah but he must have been very drunk when he answered her call.He was scared of what he might have said to her but he couldn't even remember what he said. Not only did he forget to give her a call when he arrived in the imperial capital city, he also spoke to her while he was a drunken mess."Kian, what did you do?" He slapped himself on the face. Just as he was pondering, the voice came again.'I hope you are assailed with loads of hangovers tomorrow!'He jolted up like he had been electrocuted. Realization dawned on him and his eyes widened. Now he knows why he felt that
0262: Drunken Mess ii
By the time Kian managed to bring out the phone, it had stopped chiming. He shook his head and sighed. But he was too drunk to think of where exactly to press on the screen so he gave up trying and wanted to return to the table when—RING!RING!RING!A frown etched on his face when the phone started chiming again. He answered the call without checking the caller ID, not like he would be able to read the words if he could."Kian," A strange yet familiar melodious voice came through the line. Kian paused, his heart suddenly filled with so much sweetness that was threatening to overtake the sadness in it. "Hello.""You promised to call... We waited all day," The melodious voice seemed to be nursing a grudge.Kian was confused. He sniffled and asked, "Call? When... When... did... I...""You..." The lady sounded exasperated. "Are you drunk?"Kian suddenly felt like he was a little boy about to be scolded. The urge to lie arose and he succumbed. "N...no... I'm... not... drunk... I... I...

"I must say Kian, you have really grown. I'm so proud of you," Augustus grinned as he patted Kian's back. "Back then, I used to fantasize with Doug on how we were going to treat you when you were born. I was looking forward to a particular moment. The time you would wet your bed and I would try to rescue you from your parents as a good godfather."Kian's jaws almost dropped at Augustus' words. Wesley on the other hand choked, trying to hold back his laughter."Cough! Cough!"He used to think the general was the most flawless person in the world but just thinking that the general might have also wet the bed when he was younger was hilarious."Ahem," Kian cleared his throat and stroked his nose, feeling embarrassed. "Uncle, what are you saying? I don't have any memories of wetting the bed or my pants.""Look at you," Augustus laughed. "How would you remember? You must have been so young then. Listen, Doug used to wet his pants when we were younger so I expect nothing less from you."Ki
0260: I Have Faith In You
"If that person indeed decides to mobilize supreme masters of martial arts, even if they are lacking in combat skills, they will still be formidable opponents." Augustus Vane’s expression turned grave as he spoke. "So we can't take any risks. At least until we find out the background of the other person, it's inadvisable to act rashly."Kian nodded, lowering his head in thought. He understood Augustus' concerns well. This was the exact reason he had come to the capital city—to uncover the truth behind what really transpired between his parents and the Blackwood family all those years ago.Otherwise, why would he go to such lengths to conceal his identity, choosing instead to travel as Wesley’s chauffeur and bodyguard? If it were merely about revenge, wouldn't it have been simpler to reveal himself as the legendary King of War and annihilate everyone involved?Augustus exhaled, relieved to see Kian's agreement. "It's good that you’re willing to listen to me. But what do you plan to do
