"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

    Wesley had returned to the yacht and was watching the situation with a grim expression when his phone suddenly chimed.It was a cryptic message from an unknown sender which he quickly managed to decipher. [The imperial families of Cascadia want to intervene in the situation. Assign people to patrol the sea. Once the people from the imperial families are found, they must be killed immediately!]Wesley lifted his head and looked around quickly. Everyone was focused on the island. Who could have sent this message?It definitely isn't from the general as he is currently in the hands of those criminals and has no access to communication. So who could have—"Ay, Wesley, that's not the most important thing right now," Wesley facepalmed at his thoughts. Does it matter who sent the message? The utmost concern now was that the general was in greater danger. If the imperial families are coming to intervene, the general will never escape.Perhaps those sly people were the ones that orchestrated

    Four small yachts floated on the sea some kilometers away from Jeju island. It was evening and coupled with the facts that all their lights had been turned off, the yachts were shrouded with darkness.The yachts swayed slightly with the waves. The bright clouds gave way for the gruesome sight of the dark sea waters. Beneath the yachts, the sea waters had turned bloody red. It was a tragic scene! Not far away from the spot, several shark fins had begun wading in the water, having been alerted by the strong smell of blood.The sharks soon began to tear and fight for food. The waves surged, carrying severed arms and limbs!"You... Who are you?! You can't kill me!" A terrified scream suddenly rang out from one of the yachts. In the yacht, a man was kneeling on the deck. His two arms had been cut off cruelly and there was blood everywhere.Several armed and masked men surrounded him, standing silently. Like ghosts, they just stared at him without saying a word.Their silence was even mor

Are these officers not from the imperial families? Are they not on their sides?THUD!Thunderous footsteps resounded as the officers walked forward and immediately surrounded them. "Drop your weapons and put your hands on your heads!""If any of you attempt to move again, you will be shot to death on the spot!"Faced by several gun barrels, Margaret and her accomplice froze, completely paralyzed with fear. Their faces turned ashen as realization dawned on them.These officers are really here to capture them. They are really not from the imperial families!

    Savannah's eyes widened at Kian's words and the red tinge in her cheeks deepened. She lowered her head shyly but after a minute of hesitation, she nodded. Under Kian's dazed look, she leaned in, closed her eyes and pressed her soft, pink lips against his bruised ones.This time, it was different from the last time that their lips simply brushed each other. Kian quickly regained his composure and kissed her passionately.The ward which had a medicinal air earlier seemed to be giving off romantic vibes. Kian only let Savannah go when she had almost run out of breath.She pulled back and panted softly: her face as red as tomato. However, she didn't take her eyes off Kian. Thus, he was able to notice how her eyes filled up with tears again. "Hubby, I'm sorry... I completely misunderstood you and even got you into so much trouble..." Her face was filled with guilt and remorse.However, Kian was taken aback. "You... What did you just call me?"Savannah was speechless and flushed furiously

    Although the doctor's hands were covered with thin gloves, he could clearly feel that the doctor's palm was too rough. It was a norm that doctors who often need to hold surgical knives prioritize their hands the most.Some doctors even had expensive insurance specifically for their hands. This is because their hands are too rough, the control and flexibility will be affected which is forbidden for doctors.Kian laid still and focused on the feel of the doctor's hands. It seems to him as if the roughness of the hands was not due to lack of care. Rather, he would have said these rough hands were results of years of martial arts training!And just now, his colleagues were showing concern. At least, one would have thanked them. But the doctor was not only reluctant to speak and even insisted he was fine. Kian instantly became alert. This kind of person is suspicious... There is something wrong somewhere. SKIP!While Kian was dwelling on those thoughts, the tires of the ambulance suddenl

    CLANG!A shrill sound rang out as metal clashed. The fake doctor's face changed drastically! Right before his horrified gaze, his right arm along the half broken piece of the surgical knife was cut off easily!It was as if Kian was handling meat. The fake doctor's face filled with fear and pain instantly! "You... How..."The metal pieces of the surgical knife were made from the same material so how could Kian do this easily? While the fake doctor was still dazed, he was suddenly overwhelmed by a severe pain in his throat. "Argh!" His eyes widened as his remaining fingers flew up to cover his throat while staggering right out of the ambulance. Looking at Kian, the disbelief, terror and hatred were evident in his eyes as blood spilled in between his fingers. THUD!He fell to the ground with a loud bang and convulsed all over but life immediately snuff out of him. Then his body laid still and stiff on the ground."Tommy!" The old man who had disguised as the driver howled in pain and

    SLAP!Kian's palm collided with the old man's palm, slapping it away horizontally. His palm hit the old man's fist and a terrifying force pressed down on the latter.Reginald's body trembled and he went still for a minute. He didn't get to retreat like before. His eyes widened as a shock rippled through his body. THUD!A wheezing gasp escaped his lips before he crumpled to the ground, clutching his chest as blood trickled from his mouth. This man... How could he simply be a powerful military martial artist? The power and force in just his strike was stronger than fifteen military martial artists combined together!The strike just one... Only a top tier ranked martial artist could perform it. The level at the peak of all martial arts was the War God level. And there was only one person ranked at the War God level in the entire Valoria country! That person was—Face contorted with pain, Reginald stuttered painfully, "You are... the... legendary king of war?!"In Valoria country, ther

    Hours passed quickly and it was late in the night when the doors of the emergency room flew open. Kian was wheeled out by some doctors and taken to another VIP ward.In the ward, people like Savannah, Wesley, Magistrate Cody and others were already waiting for his arrival. Seeing that Kian was safe, everyone was filled with relief and joy.Savannah's eyes even began to tear up again. "Don't cry," Kian gave her a reassuring smile, seeing her tears. "They didn't manage... to get to... me thanks to that person.""Yes madam and we have conducted another test. He doesn't have any internal bleeding like was earlier suspected. We apologize for our incompetence," One of the doctors chimed in with a bow.However, thinking of the fact that Kian was almost abducted after how he suffered earlier made Savannah's nose sore and tears streamed down her face. She should have insisted on following the ambulance earlier. What would she have done if something really happened to Kian and he wasn't fortun

    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

    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

    "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

    "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

    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

    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.

    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

    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'

    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
