Mortimer Blackwood struggled to keep up a composed front but his mind was racing. His expression turned gloomier as the courtyard fell silent. Everyone was waiting for his response.Each passing minute was like a step closer to doom. After a while, Mortimer finally spoke again in a cold tone."Very good... Since this is what you all want to do, instead of wasting resources and fighting against each other, why not join forces?"The four elderly patriarchs exchanged a look. They weren't scared that Mortimer had figured out the plan on their mind, rather, they were confused. What did he mean by join forces?"You... What are you talking about?" The Patriarch of Russell's family questioned with a snort.Mortimer Blackwood snickered and mused inwardly, 'Didn't you start this riot, old man? Why pretend to be puzzled now?'"I mean, let's join forces and get rid of that bastard once and for all!"Mortimer Blackwood patted his chest and announced, "My family will take the lead! Are you all sati

Grandfather Hathaway was startled. "Orion, are you certain of what you are—""Yes," Orion nodded frantically. "So please, let's not provoke him and incur his wrath.""What the heck!" Before the patriarch of Hathaway's family could speak, Grandfather Sinclair slapped the table furiously. Pointing at Orion, he fumed, "You... Are you looking down on my family?!"But Orion hurriedly bowed and apologized, "I'm sorry, grandfather Sinclair. That was not my intention. Please don't misunderstand me."Even though Orion lowered his head and was seemingly apologizing sincerely, he was mocking the old man inwardly.Foolish old man! That person is not someone even the imperial families of Cascadia could mess with. They simply couldn't afford to provoke him. But if they refuse to back out and still carry on with their plan, they would meet their end soon!If Orion mentions his real thoughts, it would sound absurd but he had an inkling his thoughts weren't exactly wrong. "How can our aristocratic fa

"But Cascadia is our territory. If he dares to come here, we won't let him off!" Grandfather Sinclair retorted hatefully. He could almost see Kian in front of him. If that bastard really comes here, he was done for!But the Patriarch of Russell's family was confused. "Didn't you all say we have lie low and not act rashly? Why—""You..." Mortimer Blackwood facepalmed helplessly. Has this old man always being this stupid? "That bastard didn't only offend us. So even if he comes to Cascadia, we might not have to take any action at all before he ends up dead!"Grandfather Russell frowned as his confusion deepened. But then, he suddenly thought of something and sat up, "The children did report that the bastard killed Master Theo. I was unwilling to believe it before... Are you talking about the people of the Underworld Emperors?""Finally, you get it," Mortimer sighed. "Kian killed the leader of the Underworld Emperors. Do you think they will let him go scot-free?""But..." The patriarch o

There was silence once again as the two other patriarchs exchanged a look. This only lasted for a minute before they turned back to Grandfather Windsor. The expressions on their faces clearly showed that they weren't convinced.Grandfather Windsor snorted and rolled his eyes before finally spilling the beans, "Okay... Okay... I'll tell you two old men since you are so eager. I got some news. That boy's identity is not as simple as it seems."The other two patriarchs exchanged a look again. "What did you hear? Why didn't you tell us before?""Well, I don't know for sure as the details are sketchy. So don't ask me," Grandfather Windsor waved dismissively "However, you two need to know that you shouldn't provoke that boy at all unless you want to end up like those five other imperial families!"The patriarchs of Harrington and Carrington were shocked. Their eyes widened in fear as they comprehended the underlying meaning of his words."Do you mean something will happen to those imperial
The Legendary King Of War Returns 0158: A Non-Existent Acquaintanceship
Many mass media companies who did not want to miss out on the news quickly sent out their reporters to investigate the houses of the two families, Sinclairs and Grays.Early that morning, crowds swarmed toward the buildings, eager and relentless. After clamoring outside for some time, some of the reporters managed to push their way inside. But once they did, they discovered something unexpected—the buildings were completely empty. There was not a single soul in the buildings.The members of the Gray's and Sinclair's seemed to have left overnight. This sparked another interesting speculation. Did the two families perhaps commit a huge crime that caused them to scurry away like thieves in the middle of the night? Every headline was carrying the same hashtag. [THE SUDDEN DISAPPEARANCE OF THE TWO MAJOR FAMILIES OF VALORIA PRIME]While this commotion was still going on, another piece of news broke out and it was related to the famous Radiance Gallery.[AFTER SOME DAYS OF CLOSURE, RADIAN
The Legendary King Of War Returns 0159: Getting All Worked Up
"Who was it? Was it someone from the gallery?" Savannah asked as soon as he returned. She noticed his dark expression and his frown. She was worried, thinking the call might be related to the gallery as everything had been going quite too well for the past days that she still felt surreal.But Kian smiled, his gloomy expression disappeared like it was just an illusion. "No... It was a personal call. I took care of it. Let's round off our grocery shopping and go home. It's getting late."As if on cue, Noah pouted and whined, "I'm hungry."Savannah laughed and nodded, quickly forgetting about her worries. "Fine. I'll just grab one or two vegetables and then we can go home."As Kian pushed the cart behind her with a smile, he made a mental note to send a message to Wesley later. He needed to find out why the Montgomery's family were spying on him.The next day, Kian dropped Noah off at school and headed to the gallery. Unlike the first few days when the gallery reopened, there were no l

"Tut-Tut!"The call was immediately answered just after the first ring and Wesley's emotionless but respectful voice came through the line, "General?""Come to the gallery," Kian paused and thought something before he quickly added, "Immediately."Wesley's ears perked up. Immediately? He has accompanied Kian for years and he can confidently say the word 'immediately' was rarely or never used by the general. What could be so urgent?Even when Valoria country's border was invaded by a large army of terrorists one time, Kian was as calm and composed as ever.But this time, he asked him to come to the gallery immediately. The urgency could be heard from his voice. It was strange. Something must be wrong!Thinking of this, Wesley squinted fiercely but before he could speak, Kian called out to him with a puzzled tone, "Wesley, are you there?""Yes sir. I heard you and we will be there in some minutes."Before Kian could ask what Wesley meant by 'we', a 'tut-tut' sound resounded from the pho
The Legendary King Of War Returns 0161: You Look Like A Hamster
"General," Wesley noticed something was wrong and called out. With arched brows, he asked, "Is the human head not enough? Should I have added something else?" Kian facepalmed helplessly. What was he thinking asking this cold-blooded machine for advice? Wesley might seem normal sometimes but he actually wasn't a sane person. When Kian began to make a name for himself in the Valorian army years back, Wesley was introduced to him by the old general. He had quite a pitiful background story. His ancestors ranked till his parents had all been soldiers. They breathed the air on battlefields all their lives and Wesley was just a baby when his parents were killed on the border. He had therefore been raised on the battlefield. Although he didn't choose to become a senior in the army even if he was capable of it, he ran menial jobs. He had killed so many people too. So Kian wanted to kick himself right now for thinking that a man who only knows killing and shedding blood might have som

His words 'Martial Arts Prodigy's weighed down on everyone heavily. Even ordinary civilians who have never practiced martial arts before in their entire life understood what this title means.He was a true master who was at the peak of martial arts and could even establish his own academy or alliance! In the history of martial arts, the only people able to achieve this level in the past were all respected elders of great virtue. But even the youngest and most talented one of those elders who achieved this level in history was in his mid thirties! Yet Ambrose Darkmore claims this masked man who looks like he is in his early and mid twenties was actually a martial arts prodigy?!It was simply astonishing and beyond comprehension!Apart from Ambrose Darkmore, the other elders including Silas Nightingale and Grimm were equally shocked. Their facial expressions turned stoic.Could they easily kill Peter and the other middle-aged man?Yes!But can they do it with a single strike like a ma
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. If this masked bastard could kill Peter with just one move, it means he could easily take them down as well but how is this possible?!Martial artists of the same martial arts level couldn't be killed so easily. Only a true martial arts prodigy could butcher them like chickens. But this masked man looked like he could be in his early or mid twenties. How could he possibly be a martial arts prodigy?As the spectators exchanged uncertain glances and murmured among them
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. Yet
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
