The Legendary King Of War Returns 0200: Becoming Insolvent
When was the last time an elderly person nagged at him so tenderly like this? Kian's smile widened. Before this incident, Ida looked down on him. She wanted to kick him out of the house and their lives.Even though Nathaniel allowed him to marry Savannah, Kian always felt his father-in-law never truly accepted him. To them, he was more of an outsider than their son-in-law.But at that heartwarming moment, Kian didn't feel such discomfort anymore. Even though Ida was still nagging at him like always, he felt her resentment towards him had faded. It seemed as if the walls they had put up against him had completely broken down. "Remember all you just said next time," Nathaniel patted him with a smile.Kian nodded dutifully and looked at Ida, giving her doe-eyed expression. She scoffed and tried to hide her smile. But his expression was so persuasive that she gave in and patted him gently with a chuckle."Alright... Alright... Although you tend to not use your brain sometimes, you are qu
The Legendary King Of War Returns 0201: He'll Never Leave!
The Wilson's family were not the only ones fuming at the news report. In the imperial Blackwood's family house located in Cascadia, some people were also watching the news report with dark expressions."At the time of this report, it has been revealed that the two thugs that attacked Kian Blackwood are from Cascadia. Their pictures will be shown on the screen..."Immediately the news anchor gave his report, two pictures were displayed on the screen with a warning above, 'GRAPHIC IMAGE WARNING.'The pictures were blurry but everyone present in the hall immediately recognized the people on the screen. Their faces turned so ugly it was horrifying to look at.The people they deployed to assist Margaret were all highly trained members of their families. But before they could reach their destination, they suddenly lost all contact.Later, news got to them. Turns out every single member had been wiped out without a sound. It was a huge loss for the imperial families! But now, even Reginald V
The Legendary King Of War Returns 0202: A Trip
Every day, after handling the gallery's affairs, Savannah would visit the hospital and spend the rest of the day with Kian. Schools also went on holidays so Noah stuck to Kian all day.Ida and Nathaniel also occasionally came to the hospital for a visit. They had finally accepted Kian as their son-in-law.Ida was the most surprising. She was the one antagonizing Kian and Savannah's marriage in the first place but now, she would lecture Savannah every day.Telling her to take good care of Kian and not channel all her energy into the gallery. She even occasionally brought her signature soup to the hospital for Kian whenever she came for a visit.Thus, Kian could live peacefully during this period and enjoy what he lost in the past: having a family.Whenever the word 'family' crossed Kian's mind, he remembers his parents' death. Although he already eliminated the Gray's and Sinclair's families in Valoria Prime, they are only a smaller part of the bigger scheme.Aside from this, the imper
The Legendary King Of War Returns 0203: An Old Bachelor
The year was drawing closer to an end and the weather was getting colder. Although it was as early as nine am, the air was cold. In front of a villa, a family of three were standing beside a black sedan with a moist surface."Kian, Cascadia is different from Valoria Prime. There are more prominent and influential people there. Even if the tycoon behind you is wealthy and powerful, it's best to steer clear of trouble and stay safe."Savannah was straightening Kian's trench coat as she advised him in a soft tone. Perusing her beautiful face, Kian smiled and nodded."I understand ma'am. Don't wear yourself out with worry. I'll stay out of trouble.""Good," Savannah was satisfied with his response. She stood on her toes and brushed the strands of his hair that were out of play. "Remember, that man has helped us out a lot. Repay his kindness and do a perfect job for him. Don't give him any reasons to complain. When you arrive at Cascadia, also give us a call."Kian nodded dutifully. He ha
The Legendary King Of War Returns 0204: A Visit From The Province
"Anything the general says I'll do," Wesley nodded and bowed respectfully. Kian almost facepalmed again. He could tell Wesley wasn't going to change his ways at all.For so many years, he has always been obedient so he won't question Kian's instructions but still won't do things that aren't in alignment with his style."Forget it... Get in. I'll buy some suitable clothes for you first."It's useless to say anything else at this point. Wesley nodded respectfully and opened the door but before he could get in, he was almost paralyzed by a pair of cold eyes."General—""What did we discuss about?" Kian's eyes narrowed dangerously. Wesley immediately realized what he had done and stepped back quickly. He slammed the door shut and got into the back seat. To be honest, it felt awkward.He was usually the one behind the steering wheel while the general occupied the back seat. Now the general was being treated as his chauffeur. It was uncomfortable too.But there was nothing he could do. Thi
The Legendary King Of War Returns 0205: Business Association Of The Southern Region
The old man stroked his beard but didn't take offense to Magistrate Cody. He simply nodded and sat back calmly. Although he didn't react, some people were offended."Humph!" A young man dressed in a flashy designer outfit. "He is just a useless representative. He can only rely on others and serve them. What right does he have to make us wait for him like this?"As soon as he spoke, the facial expression of Magistrate Cody and other confidantes darkened. But the people on the left side of the mahogany table didn't notice the change in their expressions or they simply did not care.Another young man who had his feet crossed on the table casually chuckled, "Ay, brother Magnus. There's no need to get so worked up about such a useless person.""Yes, it's normal for lowly people from a small city like Valoria Prime to be bird brained and lack manners. Simply don't expect too much from them," Another person chimed in agreement. "You're right," Magnus dusted the nonexistent dust on his cloth
The Legendary King Of War Returns 0206: Their True Intention
"But we also know that Magistrate Cody and the rest of you have spent hefty prices to get a share of the assets and properties of the Gray's and Sinclair's families so we can understand the unwillingness to hand them over."Magistrate Cody exchanged a look with the remaining confidantes sitting at the table. No one said a word.So the muscular man sat up and took over, "The Business Association is not being unreasonable so how about this, Magistrate Cody? We don't necessarily need to meet or see Kian Blackwood."Magistrate Cody arched his brows. What are these crafty people up to now? He didn't have to think further because the muscular man immediately explained."You all are more familiar with that mysterious investor. The tycoon who had helped you all get a share. Introduce that tycoon to the Business Association of the Southern region instead. We will discuss with him and then, we don't have to pursue the assets or properties left behind by those families. What do you think?"Magis
The Legendary King Of War Returns 0207: Fake It Till You Make It
"Who are you?" Kian smiled at the old man calmly without any trace of annoyance."My name is Rupert. I'm from the second provincial family, Holloway," The old man snorted scornfully."My apologies for not recognizing such an important figure," Kian lowered his head and bowed slightly."You uncivilized people from these small cities don't know a single thing about hierarchy or respect," Magnus sneered and pointed at Greg Kennedy. "Especially that bald man.""You bastard..." Greg no longer had to restrain himself since the general was there. He stood and glared at Magnus, making a move to charge at him."See what I'm talking about? Barbarians!" Magnus snickered hatefully, making an expression at Greg that made him feel like a clown."Greg, don't be rude to our guests," Kian didn't make any move and simply met Magnus' eyes, calmly gesturing to Greg to sit.Greg Kennedy looked at Kian in shock. He was taken aback. These people from the provincial families are very arrogant and abusive. If

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
