The Legendary King Of War Returns 0211: Countdown
Everyone was stunned at Kian's words. Dorian was the most shocked one. His face turned white than a white background as he stuttered, "What... do... you... ?mean... by that?!""I won't repeat myself," Kian's smile disappeared and was replaced by a serious demeanor. "Everyone present here today from the provincial families has to leave one arm behind. Then we can call it even."BOOM!Kian spoke so casually but the words descended like a thunder storm and caused uproar among the crowd. "Kian Blackwood, aren't you going too far?!" Rupert Holloway snarled furiously, glaring at Kian with a strong killing intent. "Daring to offend the provincial families blatantly like this? You are really asking for death!""Holloway's family right?" Kian arched his brows. "I suppose we are old acquaintances."As he was speaking, he was walking towards Rupert Holloway, one step at a time. His boots echoed on the tiled floors of the conference room.Rupert Holloway's wrinkled face turned uglier as he took
The Legendary King Of War Returns 0212: A Lasting Impression
To the ears of the people from the provincial families, the countdown was like a clock ticking, reminding them each second passing was one step closer to death!Wesley also chose that moment to casually rub the sharp dagger making a rustling sound that chilled their hearts. The pressure in the air was so heavy it pressed down on the hearts of everyone from the provincial families.Kian's condition was not difficult at all. All they had to choose was losing face and becoming a disabled person for the rest of their lives or keeping their dignity but losing their lives in return. It was just that no one wanted to die or lose face! "Three...""Two...""One...""I'll do it!" Dorian rushed forward anxiously just as Kian's countdown was ending. "I'll do as you have requested. An arm to call it even!"SWOOSH!Wesley casually threw out his dagger and it flew out. Immediately, it pierced through the table, the handle of the knife trembling as it stuck in a position.Dorian's eyes had already r
The Legendary King Of War Returns 0213: No Body No Crime
The skyscraper was overcrowded by seas of pedestrians. The crowd was growing so that one could only see the heads of people that trailed on and on. The reason for the growing crowd was quite evident. A small car was parked on the roadside with a large dent of a collapsed roof and shattered glasses.Rupert Holloway was lying on top of the car, twisted and mangled. It was this scene that attracted the onlookers. And because the crowd was so occupied with the unknown body on top of the car, no one noticed the pitiful appearance of Dorian and the rest of the people from the provincial families as they left.Some of the people from the provincial families managed to catch a glimpse of the gruesome scene across the crowd. The bloodstain that splattered everywhere was horrifying.If you ask them now if Valoria Prime is still a small city and if the citizens of the city are still uncivilized barbarians to them, they would shake their heads.They shuddered again, filled with fear as they reca
The Legendary King Of War Returns 0214: Just Kill!
As soon as the name Rupert Holloway was called in the video, an eerie silence descended in the loft. The fingers holding onto the phone shook violently. The face of the Holloway's patriarch turned deathly pale and his eyes widened with horror as the screen interface changed to display another video. This one was about the scene of the accident.In the overcrowded street, a body was lying quietly on a stretcher placed by the road side. Amidst the paramedics, the security officers and the onlookers, the Holloway's patriarch immediately recognized his son.Those clothes... He had personally given them to Rupert. He had similar apparel. Shocked at what he was seeing, he fell back to his chair. A lost and bewildered expression immediately graced his facial features."How could this be... Rupert... Why...""Father, give me the phone... Please stop scrolling down," The eldest son of the Holloway's family called out in a trembling voice.The patriarch heard him but his shuddering fingers wer
The Legendary King Of War Returns 0215: A Coup?
If the provincial families don't retaliate and take actions against Kian, when the news spreads, their centuries old reputation and prestige will collapse overnight! They could only imagine the headlines: [The five major provincial families of the Southern Valoria region were defeated by a small time son-in-law from an insignificant city, Valoria Prime]What a joke! To seek vengeance for their losses, there was only one solution. Kian Blackwood must die!Let's put the matter of the fear of the news getting out aside, Kian's actions showed that he didn't want to hide anything from the provincial families at all.He killed Rupert Holloway, Magnus Montclair and the heir apparent of Hawthorne's family openly. Wasn't he scared of karma?His attitude obviously showed that his intention was to provoke the provincial families and also trample on their faces. In the whole of the Valorian Southern region, no one dares to challenge the provincial families!Kian Blackwood must be exterminated an
The Legendary King Of War Returns 0216: Cease To Exist
All the people in the courtyard were stunned. The words the old patriarch wanted to say choked down his throat. His wrinkled face reddened with rage.At that moment, several eyes turned to the entrance of the courtyard. Who was daring enough to interrupt the old patriarch? All eyes widened in shock when they saw the tall figure that stepped in. The person was dressed in an army camouflage uniform.Huh? A soldier? This soldier happens to not even have a badge on his clothes. There was no indication as to who he was and his rank in the army."Who are you?!" The old patriarch bellowed furiously. "How dare you trespass on my property and disrupt my speech?! How daring of you!"After the old man's outburst, all members of Holloway's family and the two hundred people in the courtyard glared at the man stepping into the yard.Although the Holloway's family doesn't have a strong footing in the army, they have two people in the army who are at the commander rank.Looking at the domineering pe
The Legendary King Of War Returns 0217: Hurry And Stop Him!
The meaning of the officer's simple but harsh words was domineering and decisive. 'If you dare to take a step out of this courtyard... Out of this mansion, you and your people will cease to exist forever!'The hundreds of people gathered in the courtyard were horrified and frozen instantly. The facial features of the old patriarch changed colours.However, in the next moment, his cold voice rang out in the courtyard, "You fools! What are you still waiting for? Take him down!""Yes sir!" Six masked men cladded in black and holding different weapons rushed out of the crowd. They all rushed towards the officer.These people that rushed out were S-Class assassins personally bred and raised by the Holloway's family. Even if there was any weak assassin among them, he must have reached a high rank of martial arts while the strongest among them must have reached the highest level of ancient martial arts.That one could throw a punch that will directly not only knock someone out in the cold bu
The Legendary King Of War Returns 0218: Destroyed In A Minute
Right before everyone's eyes, the commander and the colonel rushed forward to stop the officer. The people in the courtyard heaved a sigh of relief. Now this arrogant officer will be put in his place!THUD!Everyone had only just begun to relax when the heavy, loud sound rang out as the two Holloway's commander and colonel who had just rushed to the officer suddenly knelt down on their knees.Shocked gasps echoed in the courtyard as the people gathered exchanged a look. What's going on? Are the commander and colonel not supposed to stop the goddamn officer? Why does it appear as if they are kneeling to him instead?! What the—"General sir!" The commander and the colonel called out in a chorus. "We are paying our respects to you sir. Please spare our lives!"The officer still didn't lift his head. The moment they finished speaking, one of his feet stretched out and kicked an assassin. He didn't stop there. He took a few more steps and stomped down viciously on the assassin's chest.CR

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
