The Legendary King Of War Returns 0160: Human Heads
"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

"Alas," Vivienne sighed and placed a palm over her forehead dramatically. "My life is so pitiful. Everyone treats me like a tool. Even this man."Kian gaped at her and wondered why he even thought of asking her for help in the first place. But then, he needed her assistance so he gritted and folded his palms."Vivienne, I invited you to lunch not only to question you but because I missed you... Please, help me out.""You missed me?" Vivienne's face lit up and she rested her head on her hands. "It doesn't sound very sincere though."Kian hissed and grabbed a fork. "I'll poke your eyes out if you continue looking at me with that doe-eye expression. It's creepy."Vivienne rolled her eyes and grumbled, "He can't even handle a small joke. He needs my help but can't ask politely."Kian dropped the fork and facepalmed. He mumbled some incoherent words in frustration but when he raised his head, there was a mysterious expression on his face."Fine... I'll fulfill anything you want as long as

Margaret stood motionlessly as she watched the duo talking excitedly some distance away from her. She gnashed her teeth in anger and her fingers clenched around her phone as she looked down at the picture she had just taken.The moment she met Kian, her life had been cursed. She not only fell from grace to grass but was now subjected to a difficult living.She used to be a revered bank manager but now, she was reduced to the level of a lowly dishwasher!If it wasn't for Kian, she wouldn't have been fired from the car dealership store the same week she was hired. Since then, her life has never been the same.No other businesses wanted to hire her.

Savannah looked at the folder sent by a mysterious email address and her brows furrowed. The mouse cursor hovered over the folder as she hesitated for a minute. But then her furrowed brows eased and she clicked mouse. The cursor pressed into the folder and within a second, several pictures were displayed on the desktop's screen.Her eyes widened as she took in the explicit scene displayed on the desktop. She quickly recognized the two main characters of the pictures. Kian and a young woman were smiling beautifully at each other. She had seen him smile every now and then since they got closer. Each time, it always caught her attention. But the way he smiled at her was nowhere close to how he smiled at the woman in the pictures. He looked at ease with her. Savannah's facial expression turned cold and her fingers trembled slightly as she moved the mouse around, scrolling down. In every single picture, the smile never left Kian's face. There was a particular picture where their heads

[Very good... I'll contact you soon and give you more information. Don't forget what I told you. No matter how wild the matter spurns, don't release a statement or meddle in it]Savannah was now calmer than when she first got the first mail. But her eyes were red and had traces of tears. Her lips were also trembling but she breathed in deeply and looked down at the keyboard to type a response.[Understood. I'll wait for your instructions]In the restaurant backroom, Margaret's lips curled up when she saw Savannah's mail. She snickered as she went through their emails.This fool actually fell for her words. She didn't even suspect it was a trap. Margaret snorted at herself with a pleased expression."That bastard will pay for what he has done. I will make him pay. Let's see how he makes his way out of this one," Margaret pointed at the door and swore, "Kian, I will leave your reputation in shambles. Mark my words! It will be worse than the scandal that year. I will make sure that you

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
0313: Master Is The Strongest
The entire square was in utter silence. The whole elders council and the spectators were stunned speechless. At that moment, Silas Nightingale and other elders at the elders' council gathering felt more apprehensive towards Kian. A sense of fear slowly crept into their hearts. An overwhelming sense of fear. Martial arts training was just like studying. Its practitioners have their own advantages, disadvantages, specialities, strengths, and weaknesses. Some martial artists were excellent at attacking with fierce ferocity and strength, but their defenses always tend to be weak. Silas Nightingale, Ambrose Darkmore, and Grimm all belonged to that set of martial artists. On the other hand, some martial arts masters like several others in the elders' council were superb at defense, but their attacking abilities weren't so good. It was important to note that among the second tier leaders that Kian just killed, one of them was a sect leader who was revered for his defensive specialt
0312: Not Just A Prodigy!
THUD! THUD! THUD! The lifeless bodies of the first three second tier leaders that were used as sacrificial lambs were sent flying in different directions. The bodies hit the ground, and blood quickly pooled beneath them. At the same time, the remaining second tier leaders attacked. Punches, palm strikes, swords, and even a staff; all weapons channeled with powerful forces descended down on Kian. "So what if you are a martial arts prodigy?" Calvin laughed as he attacked. "Today, I'll bring you down on your knees and turn the tables—" Before he could even complete the word 'tables', the smile on his face froze. A horrifying realization dawned on him. Shouldn't Kian be bleeding from all the weapons and pleading for mercy now? How could the masked bastard still be looking at him tauntingly?! "Tsk! You foolish old man! You think you know it all," Kian clicked his tongue and spoke loud enough for only the second tier leaders to hear him. Calvin's eyes dilated at his words. His compan
0311: As Good As Dead!
The remaining second tier leaders didn't hesitate to charge forward. They unleashed their full strength as they stormed towards Kian. The ring was big and wide but for these furious martial arts masters, closing the distance between them and Kian was easy. They moved swiftly, reaching him in a blink of an eye. SWOOSH! The sharp slice sounds in the air echoed as they threw their strongest punch, others kicks and some their weapons. At that moment, Calvin's eyes shone with a fierce glint. Just as he was reaching Kian, he slowed down his punch, twisted his body, extended a leg and delivered a powerful kick. BANG! BANG! BANG! The loud thud sounds resounded three times as the three closest second tier leaders to Kian including the female leader who had protested earlier were caught off guard and struck hard in the back! "Argh!" "Ah!" "Ugh!" They groaned consecutively and stumbled forward, directly into the path of Kian's spear! "Calvin, you old bastard!" "What are you doing
