The Legendary King Of War Returns 0140: If He Takes One More Step...
The remaining five guards were stupefied watching blood taint the rain water splatting on the ground and the head of their colleague rolling down the road.SLASH!Before they could recover from their shock, Kian already raised his blade and beheaded them all in a swift strike. They didn't even have to cry in pain or fight back as they succumbed to a silent death.Without flinching, Kian stepped on one corpse and another, heading into the hall through the gates which the guards had refused to grant him entry to before.Back in the hall, Jonathan Gray was already getting impatient. The guards haven't announced Kian's arrival yet and there was no sign of the little bastard either. Was that bastard such a coward he wasn't willing to show up even after knowing what is at stake? Will all their efforts today just be in vain?"Call the guards. Is that bastard still not here yet? Will he not show up today...""Uncle, don't get so worked up," Olivia smiled, walking up to him to pat his arm gen
The Legendary King Of War Returns 0141: A Blood Bath!
When the laughter ceased, Kian swatted away the wet hair strands that had clung to his forehead so he could fix his cold gaze on the members of Gray's and Sinclair's families. "I underestimated your courage. You people are very brave. Even after death, you still aren't willing to let my parents rest." Kian's appearance was as calm as his voice. He didn't look as repentant and scared as the Grays and Sinclairs expected. This irked them. "Shut your mouth!" Olivia Sinclair sneered at him coldly. "Any sane man would attempt to plead when they are about to be killed but you... You are about to die yet still know how to run your mouth. As expected, you didn't disappoint me, Kian." Olivia's face displayed the deep seated hatred she felt towards him. She would never forget that the first thing this bastard had done after his return was to crash her wedding banquet ceremony and even cripple her groom! Then he had uttered words that added to her humiliation. There were so many of her s
The Legendary King Of War Returns 0142: I Don't Know Him
At that moment, Thomas had completely forgotten how Thorne acted towards him on the phone before. After reporting the Celestium mine to the imperial families, they must have earned their trust!Yes... This was the only explanation. Thomas' smile bloomed even more and he views again."Don't worry, young masters and mistresses. We will deal with this small matter quickly and not keep you waiting."'You fools!'The imperial families trembled all over and looked at Thomas like he was a fool. Of course, he didn't notice. The imperial families turned white like they had seen a ghost and they all cursed inwardly.'You godforsaken geezers! Who asked you to bow to us? Stop acting like we are closely acquainted. Don't get us killed!'The imperial families snuck a glance at Kian and almost wanted to cry on the spot. The young man remained calm in the same spot but the look in his eyes... The strong murderous intent couldn't be hidden!The imperial families cursed at Jonathan and Thomas once more
The Legendary King Of War Returns 0143: Even Hell Won't Accept Rotten Souls!
"You really don't know him?" Kian squinted at Thorne, making him sweat profusely. The latter was terrified, knowing that Kian was setting a trap for him with his words.He wasn't foolish enough to walk right into the trap. An unimportant small family branch isn't worth risking his life for so he shook his head once again, "I swear, the Sinclair's family of Valoria Prime has nothing to do with our imperial Sinclair's family. Their ancestors alienated from our family long ago and have been regarded as outsiders since then."Thomas gasped, collapsing to the ground. His chest tightened as if a vise had clamped down, and each breath seemed to be torn from his lungs with terrifying force.He looked at Thorne in a shocked silence. What the heck?! He had dared to act so arrogant and recklessly today because he thought he had the support of the main Sinclair's family?But now, the people he was relying on had so ruthlessly cut him off and denied him at the last minute. Only one word could be
The Legendary King Of War Returns 0144: Don't You Want To Live?
Pineview hall was completely silent. The heavy rain had ceased and was only drizzling now. Bloody water marred the soil, evoking a strong nauseous feeling.Two people were kowtowing and wailing loudly. Kian lowered his head and looked down at the two patriarchs pleading for mercy at his feet. They were in a miserable state.Despite how pitiful they were, Kian's heart only turned colder. Throughout his years on the battlefields, he had discovered different types of people.But the people he hated the most were the cowards. They would rather lower their heads in front of their enemies to plead for mercy than die.Begging for mercy from the enemy at the point of death was the most useless thing to do. Wasn't everyone supposed to step on the battlefield with the mindset of winning or dying?Now these two patriarchs of Gray and Sinclair's families were doing the same. These people had destroyed his family when they were helpless and hopeless.They had locked him up in the prison, beaten hi
The Legendary King Of War Returns 0145: Innocent People
Revenge was a must but before that, Kian walked silently to two tombstones. With a low thud, he knelt down in front of the tombstone. Just like the first time when he had come for a visit, he gently dusted off the sand particles on the tombstones."Dad... Mom," He called out lowly. "Your unfilial son has once again come for a visit. How have you been doing since the last time? Mom, did dad bully you again?"His shoulders as he laughed, "What am I saying? Mom... Don't bully dad, okay? You promised... Look at me. I have been doing well these past few years. So you two don't worry about me.""..."Kian would reach out to touch the tombstones as he continued murmuring to himself for a long time. Everyone was silent as no one dared disturb him.Finally, he said, "Today is your death anniversary. Mom, dad, do you remember the promise I made to you two the last time? Today... I will make the Grays and Sinclairs repent of their sins in front of you."There was a grave silence. Kian didn't no
The Legendary King Of War Returns 0146: Appease My Parents
"Innocent people?" Kian scoffed with an incredulous look. He laughed coldly and pointed at them, "Was my family not also innocent? What wrong did my parents do to you people?!"The woman and her son kept quiet, unable to refute his words. Kian ruffled his hair, giving them an icy glare. "You stand there and talk about innocent people to me. Do you think you are qualified to say that?" Kian laughed again. The sound sent chills down everyone's spine."The only mistake my family made was climbing up the ranks quickly. The only sin my parents committed was wanting to settle down in Valoria Prime city peacefully. But before you people were intimidated by our success and prosperity, you exterminated my family. How dare you stand in front of me and talk trash?!"The woman exchanged a look with her son and the latter scoffed, "Do you think your parents are so innocent? Everyone has a skeleton in their cupboard!"Magistrate Cody facepalmed. Will someone shut this stupid lad? Does he think he
The Legendary King Of War Returns 0147: It's Over
Just as everyone was wondering and trembling, Kian picked up his blade and walked towards the remaining people. Those who were killed by the arrows weren't worth his strength.The main family members were the people he was after and the first person he encountered on the way was the mute Anthony."Mmph!" Anthony retreated in fear and instinctively tried to speak but the only words that he could utter were incoherent. Kian didn't even spare him a glance as he raised his blade and swung it. Anthony's head immediately flew off and his body went still instantly. SPLAT!Blood splattered and the people behind screamed in horror again, "Ah!" Kian then continued walking forward without stopping.Alexander who was sitting on his wheelchair in a daze suddenly came to his senses. He trembled and screamed pleadingly, "No... Don't kill me! Don't kill me!"With a vicious expression, he pointed to the side, "I wouldn't have dared to touch Olivia. She came to me. She seduced me. She was also the o

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
