The Legendary King Of War Returns 0061: What Exactly Can You Do?
"Brother-in-law, please, you have to help me! I have no one else to turn to. Don't turn my family and me out during this trying period."In the Sinclair's family home, Langston was kowtowing in front of Thomas Sinclair. His wife, a similarly fat woman with undesirable facial features, was kneeling beside him.Langston looked nothing like his previously haughty self. He seemed to have lost weight overnight. Not to mention the rough stubble on his face and his modest appearance. For him to have lowered himself in front of his brother-in-law, the situation must be dire."Langston, you couldn't even handle a small family business. What do you want me to do?" Thomas frowned. Not many people know that Pinnacle Entertainment was a subsidiary company of the Sinclair's family business. It was given to Langston after he married Thomas' younger half-sister. "Brother-in-law," Langston reached forward to touch Thomas' feet. "I didn't do anything, I swear! The business was thriving well under my

"Mom—" "And you have to do as I have said tomorrow morning," Ida cut Savannah off. "I'm giving you two till tomorrow to get divorced and put an end to this sham—" "Mom!" Savannah shouted coldly, interrupting her mother's words. Her beautiful face had a dark expression as she spoke. "Just be quiet. He's my husband and that is never going to change. I won't divorce him so stop making so much noise. You'll frighten Noah." Ida was so furious she couldn't come up with words to say. When she did, she spurted, "You, fool! It's for your own good. Are you so blind you—" "Shut up!" Nathaniel finally intervened. "I don't want to hear another word from you." Ida stormed off angrily, grumbling as she left. She even slammed the door behind her loudly. Noah shook and burrowed into his mother's embrace. "Father—" "I'm tired. Please, take me to bed," Nathaniel didn't give Kian any face. It was clear he didn't want to speak to him. Savannah dropped Noah but still held him tightly as she wh
The Legendary King Of War Returns 0063: Memories Of The Past
The next morning, Kian took Noah to school because the little one kept clinging to him and refused to let him go, much to Savannah's displeasure. However, she didn't complain because it meant she could make it to the dance school earlier than usual. Kian never noticed he had garnered some female fans until he dropped Noah off. He was heading for the gate when a beautiful, young lady approached him."Hello. Good morning," She greeted politely. Kian looked down at her and then at the group of ladies standing some distance away. He nodded without speaking. Seeing his apathetic attitude, the lady smiled, "I'm Marie. I don't think I have seen you here. Is this your first time coming? Are you also dropping a nephew or niece like me?"Kian looked down at her outstretched hand and wide smile. He wasn't a fool to not notice she was hitting on him but he had somewhere important to go."I was dropping off my son and I don't think my wife will appreciate me entertaining conversations with stra
The Legendary King Of War Returns 0064: I'll Teach You A Lesson!
It was Margaret. She had come to cafe a while ago to seek a job. Although, there was a signboard at the door of the cafe, she was told that the cafe wasn't in need of more staff. This was the fourth place she would be given the same response. She was getting frustrated. At this rate, it was evident she was going to starve to death. But just as she was leaving, who knew she would see the one behind her problems? From the moment Kian stepped into the cafe, she had noticed him, unable to control the anger that welled up inside her. But then, a strange, beautiful woman approached him. Margaret swiped her fingers on her phone screen, looking through the pictures she had taken. There was one where Vivienne had hugged Kian. There was another where he was laughing heartily. There was also one where he was patting her hair with a smile. The pictures were taken at such great angles that it would be difficult for one not to mistake Kian and Vivienne as a couple. A sense of satisfactio
The Legendary King Of War Returns 0065: Shameless Pairs
Kian's expression hardened and his eyes dimmed with coldness as he reached out and countered Dorian's attack. Within a second, he caught Dorian's wrist and forced his palm on the table. SWISH! Dorian only heard the sound of the knife in the air before it settled in between his fingers. If Kian had miscalculated, the knife could have landed directly on his palm and perhaps even cut off a finger, rendering him useless. Dorian broke into cold sweat and trembled. He swallowed hard and his legs wobbled in fear. How could he feel so much pressure from this trash? No, it's unacceptable! Vivienne was still watching. How could he lose face so easily? No matter who this man is, Vivienne can only belong to him! Thinking of these, Dorian stopped trembling and summoned courage. Gritting his teeth, he snapped, "You bastard! Are you trying to disfigure me? Do you know who my uncle is? I won't let you off!" Kian's lips curled up and he moved his fingers. "It seems you are not frightened en
The Legendary King Of War Returns 0066: He Calls The Shots, Not You!
"Do you think you are one kind of big shot just because you are a famous director? Usually, people like you wouldn't even be able to breathe the same air I breathe!" A lop-sided smile tugged at Kian's lips. As expected of a general's daughter, Vivienne was showing off her sassy nature. Martin and his nephew were no match for her so Kian didn't feel any need to even meddle with these foolish pairs. Director Martin's face reddened with anger and veins bulge on his face. He felt so insulted he was trembling with anger. How could a lowly actress humiliate him in front of so many people? "Uncle, did you see that? This is the kind of habit Luminary Films artistes have! They won't show up on set early. Their acting skills are mediocre and they lack manners!" Dorian spat, aggravating the situation. "You..." Martin raised a trembling finger at Vivienne and swore, "If I don't show you just how big my ego is today, I'll retire from the movie industry!" Actresses and actors nearby who w
The Legendary King Of War Returns 0067: Bring His Head To Me
In Gray's family house:Alexander Gray sat on the bed, covered in cast. Some senior family members were standing around him. The atmosphere was extremely tense and no one spoke.Their family had encountered a series of misfortunes this month. First, Alexander was beaten up to a pulp on his own wedding day in front of so many guests. Then, Orlando was brutally murdered and their second son, Anthony Gray was rendered dumb. As if that wasn't enough, the one behind their misfortune also turned out to be the billionaire behind the investment bid they were eyeing. All of these were almost enough to drive the Gray's family crazy."Greetings, old master," A guard walked into the room and bowed to Jonathan Gray. "I have news."Jonathan raised his bloodshot eyes and gestured for him to speak. "As a result of the investigation, we discovered that Colonel Marcus commands several provinces in the Central Valoria region and leads over a million troops in the Valorian army."The expression on the
The Legendary King Of War Returns 0068: What If He Doesn't Comply?
Fifteen sleek Lamborghini Urus cars drove in a perfect line on the highway. They all had an identical emblem of a silver phoenix emblazoned on the hood, catching the light. This convoy turned heads with every mile, drawing curious stares from passing drivers who couldn't help but wonder what the big occasion was and who the fancy entourage was for. In the leading car, a young man sat at the backseat, draped in a richly embroidered cloak that had an eye-catching insignia: a stylized crest of a rising phoenix. His expression was calm but there was an undeniable air of authority about him. And as the convoy sped forward, he gazed out of the window, fully aware of the attention they were drawing, yet remained unbothered. "Uncle Benedict, what sort of man do you think my cousin has grown into?" A scorn appeared on the middle-aged man with a gray goatee behind the wheels. "A coward like his father." The young man stroked his chin at this response and raised another question. "Do

0322: Should Never Have Underestimated Him
At this time, Kian had already staggered to the edge of the ring when he was hit with another fierce strike from Ambrose Darkmore. The blade slashed through his back and tore through his robe, revealing a trail of bloody line."Ugh!" He spewed a mouthful of blood and breathed laboriously. He was already critically injured. Seeing him in this state, Silas Nightingale was overjoyed and charged forward. "Keep it up! He's already at the end of his wits!"Ambrose Darkmore and the other elders were also delighted. They prepared to strike again and give Kian the final blow. Feeling the terrifying gusts of wind swirling around him, Kian arched a bloodied eyebrow. After being attacked for the nth time, he was now utterly battered. This act has been on for too long, it's time to put an end to it.So this time, he stood firm on the spot and didn't dodge. Panting heavily, he waited for Silas Nightingale, Ambrose Darkmore and the other elders to close in on him. To the spectators, it appeared
0321: Could He Be Putting On An Act?
The central square was in a somber atmosphere. The crowd's emotions stirred because of Roland. But Wesley, who the show was for, simply looked at the middle-aged man speechlessly.He couldn't help but ponder, 'Did the general hire this old man to play this dramatic role and add more fuel to the fire? Why is he performing so enthusiastically?'In the ring, Kian, who was supposedly beaten to the brink of death, felt his face twitch severally. 'Who is this person that's acting so dramatic? I didn’t hire anyone...'Even the facial expressions of Silas Nightingale, Ambrose Darkmore, and the other elders in the ring changed. They threw Roland grim looks and scoffed,"Why are you shouting so dramatically? Are you really so sad?!"If one didn't know better, they would have mistook Kieran for Roland's first son with the way he was wailing.Everyone knows the presence of Harrington's family at the square today was to recruit powerful martial artists for their family, but even if Kieran dies at
0320: Crying Over Spilled Milk
BANG!BANG!BANG!Just as Kian was about to tumble out of the ring in a bloody mess, Silas Nightingale, Ambrose Darkmore, and the other elders struck him again. Two of them dragged him back to the center of the ring, leaving behind a large trail of blood, which made the hearts of the spectators bleed even more.They didn't stop there and immediately pounced on him. Within the few minutes that they began their assault, Kian was already drenched in blood. He looked motionless and utterly defeated.Meanwhile, at the area that had been designated for the Dark Legion sect, which was now occupied by the representatives of the aristocratic Harrington's family, Roland Harrington was seething furiouslyHe was on the edge and visibly frustrated. At any rate, the masked man will obviously not survive! How could he lose a gem when he just found it? His eyes instinctively trailed from the ring to the section in the tent of the Sacred Shadow sect where Wesley was sitting. At this point, he couldn
0319: Their Beloved Hero
Grimm and the other two elders who opposed the proposal had displeased and grim expressions on their faces. But Silas Nightingale paid them no attention. In his own opinion, the ten elders that chose to support his proposal and stand on his side were enough to completely defeat this masked man."Attack with no mercy!" Silas' eyes turned icy as he shouted fiercely. His words were a clear command to the other elders.Kill with no mercy!BOOM!Silas emanated a powerful murderous aura that was enough to make people tremble as he stormed towards Kian. He moved at such a lightning speed people could barely see his feet. Just then, something unexpected happened. Grimm had unsheathed his long sword and rushed down to the ring. The two other elders had also followed him down."Two of you, attack!" Grimm commanded in a low tone, brandishing his sword in the air.SWISH!The long blade surged forward and slashed at the throat of the nearest elder. The sound of slicing and piercing through fles
0318: The Votes Result
Ambrose Darkmore thought long and hard before speaking. Eventually, he raised his grim face and said, "I agree with Silas' proposal."As soon as he spoke, a member of the Divine Sword sect immediately countered his decision, "Master, this is not right. It is inappropriate to—"Ambrose Darkmore's face darkened, and he snapped back in an icy tone without even allowing the man to complete his words, "Shut up! You have no right to question my decision!"The man's face turned red and shrunk back into his seat. He dared not speak anymore. Just then, another elder raised his hand. "I agree with Silas' proposal. It is time to elect a new leader for the alliance."Another elder with a huge scar nodded and raised his head. The scar on his face widened as he looked down at the ring. "Kieran is powerful. His injuries are certainly not that serious. They shouldn't affect him much.""Silas, I agree.""I also agree.""..."Each of the elders spoke one after the other, and soon, the voting results w
0317: Underhanded Tactics
"Silas, why go to such lengths?" Roland Harrington suddenly stepped forward with a dark face. "The alliance does need a new leader but why the sudden rush?"His words filled the hearts of many of Kian's new supporters with joy. They didn't expect that someone from the aristocratic Harrington's family would suddenly speak up for Kian.Not just someone. The patriarch of the family himself. At least, the aristocratic family also saw the injustice unfolding. Meanwhile, in the tent allocated to the members of the Sacred Shadow sect, Wesley had a strange expression on his face as he looked straight ahead at the middle-aged man who had just spoken up.It was strange indeed. The aristocratic Harrington's family was actually pleading for the general?!If the old man from the aristocratic Harrington's family knew that the person he was trying to plead for and win over was Kian Blackwood, the same person most if not all the aristocratic families wanted to eliminate...Would he stand there tall
0316: Eager To Meet Their Ancestors
Slowly and gradually, voices rose in the square. Kian's previous performance had been so stunning. He had quickly captivated the hearts of many spectators. Now, there were a lot of people willing to support him and speak up for him. Even many disciples of the Heavenly Flame sect who were sitting behind Silas Nightingale had grim expressions, but no one spoke up.In the martial arts community, only strength is truly revered. Kian had already earned their respect through his actions. So, they were inadvertently dissatisfied with their leader's behavior. They looked at each other and began to whisper among themselves.Even if the elders see Kian as a threat and want to eliminate him, couldn't they have waited till Kian recovered, and then they could face him openly. "Silas, does it not seem a bit inappropriate to do this now?" Augustus Vane's facial expression had darkened as he questioned angrily. Even the members of the Sacred Shadow sect had all begun to glare at Silas. It wasn't
0315: If The Former Leader Was Alive...
While it may seem like the top aristocratic families of the Cascadia were equally powerful and reigning, only people at core positions like the patriarchs of the families including Roland knew the truth. The aristocratic Blackwood's family was not just the number one aristocratic family in Cascadia for nothing. They had long surpassed the other aristocratic families by a huge margin. Which was why even if some aristocratic families were offended with them regarding the attitude of that bastard from the Blackwood's family, they couldn't do anything much to harm the family. The patriarchs of all the aristocratic families also knew that it was only possible for the Blackwood's to be in this state because of the support of that mysterious force behind them. Roland Harrington had tried every means to extract information about those forces from the Blackwood's family. But that cunning old man, Mortimer Blackwood kept his mouth tightly short, refusing to reveal information about them
0314: The Real Top Tier Forces
Everyone could see Kian laughing carelessly and wiping the blood that was trickling down his mouth, but no one knew he was actually cursing inwardly. "Damn! If I knew acting was so exhausting, I would have asked Vivienne to give me some acting lessons," he mumbled to himself. With his physical strength alone, he could easily defeat Calvin and the other second tier leaders. Not only them, even if the elders of the council, including Silas Nightingale, Ambrose, and Grimm, decide to attack him simultaneously, he could still defeat them! After all, his martial arts level was that of a martial war god. A martial artist at the peak level of the war god was different from other levels and beyond human comprehension. But if this were to be revealed to the public, it would certainly cause uproar. Actually, Kian doesn't care if his identity is revealed to the elders of the Ancient Martial Arts Alliance Council or the aristocratic families of Cascadia. What he truly cares about is find
