It was late afternoon in Valoria Prime and the airport was usually busy at this hour. But surprisingly, it was quiet. Besides some airport staff moving around, there were no signs of passengers which was strange.

However, if one looked further, one would be able to see the reason. Outside the airport, a hundred heavily armed soldiers were positioned in two straight-line formations, creating an imposing barrier.

One could also see the armored cars parked nearby. The atmosphere was filled with a solemn tension. It seems like a very important person or rather people were visiting Valoria Prime today.

"Listen up!" a uniformed man barked, catching the attention of the other soldiers. "The heirs and representatives of the five greatest imperial families from Cascadia will arrive in eight minutes!"

The soldiers exchanged a look while waiting for the next instruction which came very quickly, "We have received orders from above to ensure their safety! Block the airport entrance and exit until

    "Long time no see Zeke Sterling.""Oh! Young master Christopher and Miss Charlotte are here too...""..."Orion greeted them with a warm smile. Some people responded while others like the Blackwoods gave him a cold shoulder. "Aiyo!" Orion clutched his chest playfully. "Why are you acting so cold? Aren't we all here to discuss investing in Radiance Gallery? Who knows? We might be partners in the future. Let's be more amiable."Some people scoffed. What investment? Hypocrite! They all knew what their goal in Valoria Prime was and contrary to what Orion is saying, they will be competitors not partners so it was better not to get friendly with the enemy!Seeing that the atmosphere had suddenly turned cold, Orion didn't continue speaking and kept quiet with a sly smile dancing on his lips.As the members of the Imperial families all descended and proceeded to leave, the commander suddenly glanced at Cody who was still standing still without making any attempt to welcome the imperial famil

    The armed uniformed men surrounded everyone. Their heavy guns were pointed at all their heads!CLICK!The soldiers acted quickly and also cocked their guns, aiming back and waiting for instructions to make a move. But they were completely outnumbered by the other uniformed men.The faces of all the imperial families changed and they looked horrified. At this moment, Cody's smile had completely disappeared and he no longer needed to put on an act."So what if you are an heir apparent of the central region aristocratic family?" He asked Thorne with an aloof facial expression. "This is Valoria Prime and I am the county magistrate. Here, my words are the rules!"THUD!Taking a step forward, Cody's eyes narrowed as he added, ''Even if you are the governor of the Valoria Central region, in this city, you'd better watch your behavior. Apologize now, or I'll personally see to it that they take you away!''"Magistrate Cody!" This time, Thorne's uncle, Vaughn, completely lost it. "Are you seeki

    Seeing that Thorne refused to take his hand, Cody retracted his outstretched palm and sighed, "I apologize, young master. I am just a small county magistrate whereas you are a mighty imperial heir apparent. I am not worthy of your handshake." What the heck! Everyone's faces twitched and they cursed at him inwardly. Does this man have a limit to his shamelessness? Cody on the other hand didn't give a damn about their thoughts. He deftly changed the topic and gestured, "Let's not waste anymore time. I have prepared my humble home for you all. Let's leave." Everyone exchanged a look but no one attempted to move. Cody arched a brow but acted oblivious to their reluctance. With a happy smile, he told them, "I know you have all come to Valoria Prime this time for the sole purpose of investing in Radiance gallery so I negotiated with the president of the gallery beforehand. I have booked the top floor of the Imperial restaurant so you can meet with the president of the gallery tonig

    "Hello young masters and mistresses. It's my pleasure to meet you all," Master Theo lifted his head and gave them a smile that seemed harmless but filled them with fear.No one responded to his greetings.

No wonder Charlotte had spoken so confidently earlier.With someone like master Theo behind them who was the leader of the underworld emperors and also managed to eliminate a mighty general in the past with just five strikes, the Blackwoods didn't have to fear facing Kian.Master Theo could easily take Kian down with just one move. He could also force Kian to reveal the true identity of the mysterious tycoon behind the Celestium mine.But then, the other imperial families exchanged looks. With master Theo assisting the Blackwoods, how would they compete with them for the Celestium mine later?The other imperial families sighed secretly. Their heads suddenly ached thinking of this.

    As the men pushed the heavy doors open, the delicious aroma of many delicacies wafted to the doorway. There was a huge banquet table in the middle of the room ladened with different appetizing meals and wines of every kind. There were many unfamiliar people sitting around the table. When Savannah, Kian and Oscar walked in, all eyes turned to them.THUD!The door slammed shut behind them and without noticing the sinister look exchanged, Savannah walked forward."Good evening everyone. I am Savannah, the president of Radiance gallery. I am honored to welcome you all to Valoria Prime."Savannah was very excited and even bowed to them severally. The first person to speak was Orion Hathaway. He stood up with a warm smile."One shouldn't really believe what rumors say. I see Miss Savannah is not only a business whiz but also an exceptional beauty. It's nice to finally meet you."He was about to make a move forward to give her a handshake when someone hissed loudly in the room, "Oh, shut up

    Charlotte Blackwood glared at him, knowing he was saying the truth. This bastard!"Kian..." Savannah's facial expression changed and she tried to speak but Kian looked down at her and shook his head."Just trust me, okay?" He patted her hand gently as he spoke. Savannah's troubled heart subconsciously eased after hearing his words. After some minutes of silence, she slowly nodded. "I'm quite impressed, bastard. You are actually loyal to her," Charlotte sniggered and then to Savannah, she waved her hands dismissively. "Get out right now!"The person they had all come for was Kian. It doesn't matter if his wife escapes now. Charlotte would pretend to agree with Kian for now but once they have gotten what they want, she will go after his bitch and kill her! Anyone who was related to Kian in Valoria Prime won't be let off!Savannah was quite reluctant to leave, feeling incredibly anxious for her husband but Kian leaned down and whispered some comforting words into her ears until she fin

    The wooden table split into two. Dishes and bowls shattered. Food splattered all over and expensive wine bottles were ruined!The imperial families stood up with a start and retreated in shock. Master Theo was lying on the broken table in a pitiful state. His palm had been twisted from the right angle and he was writhing in pain.He had also suffered some injuries from the crash and was starting to bleed. The imperial families watched him in horror.This was Theo, the leader of the Underworld Emperors who had once put an end to the life of a mighty general with just five moves. Unexpectedly, he had been defeated by a single move?!Master Theo however was in a daze as he stared at Kian with a small hint of fear. Grappled with excruciating pain, he struggled to sit up. But there was one question burning in his mind: 'Who the heck is this man?' Even the best martial artist in Valoria Prime couldn't counter his hand combat. It was a technique he had developed himself. But with just one

    Kian took in their faces which had gone completely white from fear. He shrugged nonchalantly, "I don't like it when someone threatens me." No one could refute his words. Not even Master Russell who was grieving his son and was filled with resentment had the courage to speak. Kian swept his gaze around the room until his eyes landed on one young master who was hiding away. "You called me a stray bastard earlier, didn't you?" "No!" The young man trembled and shook his head. He didn't hesitate to point fingers at Preston's corpse. "He was the one who said it, not me." "But you did call me a bastard, didn't you?" As Kian asked, he walked towards the young man. "I... No... I... Didn't..." The man stammered but before he could complete his words, SWISH! Another knife had already cut through the air and pierced his chest, stabbing his heart. He staggered backwards and hit the wall. As he slid slowly to the ground, he left a bloody trail on the wall. "You bastard, I'll kill

    "Go and prepare the other ammunition," Margaret turned to the salesman, obviously in a foul mood. "In an hour, we'll head out.""What about this guy..." The salesman pointed at the barely conscious Kian. "Let him be," Margaret waved her hands impatiently and sneered. "He's already in this state. It's impossible for him to run now."The salesman nodded helplessly then hurried to carry out her instructions. Together, they checked their ammunition, completely ignoring Kian.The latter laid on the ground with his eyes closed. From afar, one would think he was already dead considering the bloody pool he was in.But he was still breathing faintly. Although the bleeding has ceased now and he won't die in Margaret's hands, the same can't be said for later.The imperial families of Cascadia suddenly contacted Margaret. Their intentions were obvious. He definitely won't be able to escape death later. Those imperial families won't let him go.As Kian laid still, many ways of how those imperial

    The knife aimed at Kian's forehead halted midway as the phone's chimes filled the serene environment. Margaret hissed and dropped the knife as she reached into her pocket to retrieve the phone that was ringing.It was a disposable phone that she had gotten on a whim. It has never rang since the whole trouble started so Margaret was confused about who would be calling her and how they got her private number.Various thoughts flashed through Margaret's mind as she looked at the unknown number displaying on the phone screen. But just when the call was about to end, Margaret held her breath and answered the call."Margaret, do you want to escape a death sentence?"

She doesn't know the other party but they know her and from the looks of things, they have been searching for her.However, she remained cautious and didn't speak. Only her steady breathing could be heard by the othe

    On a small ship not far away from Jeju island, Ian Sinclair laid comfortably on a chaise longue. He seemed to be in a merry mood, sipping wine and enjoying a massage from two sexy, scantily dressed women.He was watching everything that was playing out at Jeju island on a big tablet in his hand. When he saw Kian dragged into the island with life threatening injuries, he smoked a pipe happily.Kian was so badly injured it was evident he wouldn't survive! Haha! Until those criminals decide to take his life, he is currently useless and is like a chicken waiting to be slaughtered!Ian smiled smugly.

    At the cave, Margaret was acting all gleeful. She knew waiting to see what happened would be worth it! That bastard couldn't hold on any longer and finally compromised. Very good!She casually tossed the gun in her hand and looked at Savannah whose face was ugly. Resentment flickered in her eyes as they darted to the three people sitting helplessly.Killing these three and then taking Kian's life would be the perfect revenge. But to think of it, will Kian really not retaliate like he promised? She doesn't believe that! However, he already promised. Seeing that, she couldn't touch his bottom line. Since her initial goal was Kian, what did it matter if she let Savannah and the others go?If she is able to kill Kian, it doesn't matter at all. Thinking of this, Margaret no longer hesitated and directly waved at the last salesman that had remained with her."Take them out but don't release them until you have captured that bastard!"The salesman's face visibly stiffened and he cursed inwa

He doesn't want to see any of them ever get hurt.But now, Margaret was holding them captive and their lives were in danger. What if Margaret or her accomplices couldn't resist and hurt one of them? What if he really underestimated Margaret and after the four hours ultimatum he has given her, she doesn't release them? Kian's face was as calm as the sea but his heart was in turmoil. More thoughts flooded his mind, adding to his anxiety.Time passed by slowly and within a blink of an eye, three hours had passed. By now, several heavy machinery ships had already begun to circle around Jeju island. Everyone had been evacuated from the island and it was empty. The heavy machinery ships circled around like sharks surrounding their prey. Just one word from Kian, the island will be erased from existence!However, after so long, there was no response

    "Sister-in-law, five years ago, you remember what became of the Blackwood's family. Kian was set up and falsely accused. He had to go to jail and even forcefully sign a divorce that gave away all his assets to Sinclair's family. My aunty and uncle couldn't handle what had become of their son so they committed suicide," Vivienne began to speak; her eyes tearing up.Savannah was silent. She hadn't known much about the Sinclair's family years ago because she had been embroiled in troubles of her own. As a matter of fact, Kian had been the cause of her woes. But hearing Vivienne's words caught her off guard. How did she never know about all this? Perhaps, she had been so filled with hatred for Kian that she didn't pay attention to any news concerning him."Even Kian was sentenced to death. That day, my father had rescued him from the death gallows and brought him home. I have never seen anyone as battered and broken as him. Sister-in-law, his legs had been broken almost rendering him cri

The back of his clothes quickly turned red with blood.His eyes widened in despair and he tried to take another step in an attempt to escape but—BANG!"Ah!" Savannah shrieked as the manager dropped to the ground weakly and limp. The other salesmen who saw what happened were shocked and frightened!"Margaret, how dare you?!""You crazy bitch! We won't spare you!""We won't spare you!"THWIP!Margaret's eyes were cold and fierce as she pulled the trigger again without any hesitation. THWIP!THWIP!Low gunshots rang out and the salesmen fell to the ground. The last salesman beside Margaret silently took out a knife from his pocket. Walking over briskly, he gritted his teeth and raised his hand repeatedly, fiercely stabbing his colleagues with a crazed look.SPLAT!Blood splattered everywhere and the figures on the ground trembled violently until there was no life in them anymore.
