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 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

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.

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 0001: The King Of War Is Back
Abandoned Pineview Hall in Valoria Prime City:A tall figure with a chiseled face which had such a cold expression like ice stood in front of an unkempt, nameless tombstone. His black trench coat was being ruffled by the wind.His eyes were hard and dark as he crouched and gently dusted off the sand particles on the tombstone."A criminal like him doesn't deserve to live!""Kill him!""Break his legs!"The hollow voices of his ex-wife's family echoed in his mind. Five years ago, Kian Blackwood was an important figure in the entire Valoria country.At the age of twenty, he already had a net worth of several billions. Everyone wanted to curry favor with him. He was also set to marry the top socialite, Olivia Sinclair.She was the heiress of Sinclair's family, a rich, century-old family.

The Legendary King Of War Returns 0002: Promises Of Death
The magnificent building of a glamorous five-star hotel stood tall amongst the city skylines proudly. Tonight, it seems to be bustling with activities as people are entering and leaving every minute.There was also a spectacular lineup of different brands of expensive cars outside the hotel. Sinclair's family has reserved the entire hotel for a special occasion tonight.They have also invited guests from all over as their eldest and most beloved daughter, Olivia Sinclair was getting married again.There were different airships hovering over the building carrying a banner that could be seen from miles away: "Wishing Miss Olivia Sinclair and Mr Alexander Gray a lifetime of love and happiness."Socialites and celebrities were gathered around the lobby of the hotel talking, toasting and laughing happily. The atmosphere was quite lively and lovely."Now that the Sinclair's family and Gray's family are going to merge as one. They will be unstoppable and completely rule over our Valoria Prim
The Legendary King Of War Returns 0003: The Revelation
In Valoria Prime city, Gray's family was one of the top two leading families. Over the years, their connections and wealth had accrued so immensely they now had a nearly unshakable influence.So even if anything happens to Kian now, no one will hold them to it. And since Kian dared to cause trouble at Alexander's wedding, he definitely won't let him off."Your family has created such a grand scene today," Kian effortlessly waved his fingers at the well decorated hall. "But unfortunately, you are still not worthy enough to be by Olivia's side.""Tsk," Alex shook his head and looked at him like he was looking at the greatest fool in the world. He turned around and walked back to the stage proudly."You are so ignorant that you don't know during your absence, my family has gradually grown more powerful in Valoria Prime. We are akin to a god now and you..."He turned to Kian and pointed at him arrogantly, "—you are just a lowlife! A wretched criminal! It is only right that you bow to me!"
The Legendary King Of War Returns 0004: Shocking Discovery
Kian took long strides towards the Bentley Continental GT that was parked outside the hotel. In a profound voice, he asked, "What happened?" "Sir, my men have found the whereabouts of that lady," Wesley began to report to him carefully. "Her name is Savannah Wilson. She is the daughter of a third-class family in Valoria Prime." 'Savannah?' Kian repeated inwardly. He couldn't remember much about the lady from that night as he had never met her before until that unfortunate day. "After that incident," Wesley continued. "The Wilson's family were afraid of being implicated so they disowned Savannah's family and removed them from the family lineage." "Not long after, her father was accused of a misfortune that happened at the family's company and claimed the lives of some employees. He is in prison now and her mother could only make ends meet by selling groceries at the local market." "Miss Savannah herself is now a music teacher at a local school. But just now, her son was abdu

The next second, Kian walked in and his aura was so overwhelming, the middle-aged man suddenly felt a sense of fear and he took a few steps back."W—who are you?" He stuttered but no one responded.Kian's eyes fell on the little boy in the cage who was still stunned and frightened.His heart trembled again. The eyes... The hair... The face... The boy looked as if they had been made from the same mold. He looked just like his younger self!Kian didn't need a soothsayer to tell him the boy was his. But when his eyes trailed to the fingerprints on the red spot on his cheek, his eyes shook coldly.He quickly went to the edge of the dog cage, fiddled with the lock and opened it. Then he stretched a palm and spoke in a soft tone he has never used before,"Come... No one will hurt you. I'm here now."Maybe because Noah felt that although this man had a hard facial expression, he didn't look as cruel as that old geezer over there, so he took the palm and let Kian lead him out.Wesley, who was

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
0210: Not Enough
Calista, Dorian, Rupert Holloway were all shocked. They all trembled in fear. Even Magistrate Cody, Greg Kennedy and others who witnessed this brutal scene couldn't help but twitch slightly.As expected of someone who has been associated with the general for a while, Wesley was simply too ruthless. Just imagining the force that might have been in his knee stroke made people's hearts hammer against their rib cages.DRIP!DRIP!DRIP!Blood continued to drip from the young man's crotch. He was in excruciating pain and couldn't make a sound. His entire body was convulsing and curling from the pain.Wesley threw him off and wiped his fingers with a box of tissues that he grabbed from the table, a disgusted look on his face."Killing someone is something but you guys are going too far. My Montclair's family won't let you go after this!" Calista finally found her voice and managed to speak. But her face was deathly pale and her voice trembled as she spoke.Kian raised his teacup and slipped
0209: Mannerless Barbarians
Wesley's eyes turned cold and he sidestepped the middle-aged man's advance. Without hesitating, he stretched out his hand and swung the dagger forward.SQUELCH!"Ah!" Calista shrieked in shock as blood spouted out immediately. Her uncle clutched his bloodstained neck, staggering back in shock. His eyes filled with pain and fear."You bastard... What did you—" He tried to speak but ended up collapsing to the ground with a loud thud leaving a bloody trail beneath him. He convulsed for some seconds before giving up a ghost.From the moment Wesley made a move to killing the middle-aged man, he only used about five minutes. The entire room was in shock."Ah!!!!""Argh!!!!"After some seconds, the people from the provincial families came to their senses and began to scream. Blood had splashed on some of the younger members of the Montclair's family so they were extremely terrified and shuddered uncontrollably.They had thought Wesley was simply threatening their uncle. They thought it was a
0208: Kill Him If You Want
Before everyone, Kian casually flicked his fingers but only Wesley noticed the warning. He unclenched his fists and lowered his head, the killing intent immediately disappeared. However, a chilling expression appeared on his face."Please help yourself to some tea," Kian beckoned with his fingers, smiling gently. "Let's not waste any more time," Rupert Holloway sneered with a frown, obviously not moved by Kian's hospitality. "Hurry up and tell us how to contact that wealthy tycoon!""Yes, don't waste our time and don't try to beat around the bush. Whatever needs to be known will be discovered eventually," Dorian met Kian's eyes as he spoke. "Just tell us what we need to know and make everyone happy.""No, that's not right," Kian shook his head slightly, ignoring how they all exchanged a look. "Everyone has some tea first."Dorian and the other provincial family members exchanged an amused look. Fine, they will have some tea. Let's see how long Kian can continue to make up excuses to
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
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
