The Legendary King Of War Returns 0236: Pay Your Debts
"Cyprus, you should know that back then, my parents had no one. They were all alone in a foreign city. The imperial Blackwood's family here wanted to annihilate them."At Kian's words, Cyprus' eyes shook slightly but the former didn't end there, "Besides the imperial Blackwood's family, there were other powerful families watching my parents closely from the dark. Back then, uncle Augustus hid his identity to help my parents. If they had contacted him, those people will definitely find out.""Cyprus," Kian took another step forward. "If those people find out, what would the consequences have been? Uncle Augustus risked all to protect my parents back then. Everything would have been in vain."Kian finally stopped talking. Cyprus lowered his head, lost in thoughts for a minute. However, after a few minutes, he raised his head and snorted coldly."All you just said doesn't change the fact that my master was severely injured and our sect is on the verge of becoming extinct.""Yes," Kian no
The Legendary King Of War Returns 0237: Just Admit Defeat
"The news didn't lie at all. You are just as arrogant and haughty as they say," Cyprus sneered as he dropped his gun and brought out a sword that had been hidden in his robe. "However, you are so ignorant."Kian didn't flinch. Instead he smiled calmly and fed Cyprus' ego. "Please, don't go easy on me."Cyprus' fingers closed around the sword handle tightly. His face darkened at Kian's words. Even at a time like this, he still dares to talk so arrogantly. Humph! How presumptuous!"Why don't you go over there and get yourself a sword or a spear? Anything... Just so people don't say I'm acting unfairly," Cyprus pointed at the weapon rack some meters away.There were dozens of polished spears and swords hanging in the rack, waiting to be used. Kian raised his head in the direction Cyprus was pointing at and arched his brows.He could easily defeat Cyprus with his bare hands but he didn't reject his advice. He simply walked over to the weapon rack obediently. Cyprus smiled smugly at his ac
The Legendary King Of War Returns 0238: Peak Level
Cyprus as well as others felt a terrifying force suddenly channel into the tip of the spear in Kian's hands. Augustus' eyes widened in surprise as he sat up straighter.Meanwhile, Cyprus' eyes shook in horror. How could Kian, who is supposed to be a weak amateur martial artist, suddenly make such a power move?From the moment the tips of their spears clashed, the terrifying force was channeled into Cyprus' spear. SWISH!It cut through Cyprus' spear, going as far as grazing his shoulder, leaving a gash. Blood oozed out and Cyprus' hand which was holding up the spear trembled. He almost dropped the weapon.THUD!THUD!THUD!He was caught off guard and frightened, retreating uncontrollably. Kian's calm voice drifted into his ears just then, "You will have to do better than that."There was no hint of sarcasm or mockery in Kian's voice. It was only serene as if he was just talking to someone ordinary and casually commenting about some advice they need to take.THUD!THUD!THUD!Cyprus ke
The Legendary King Of War Returns 0239: Leave No Room For Mistake
SWOOSH!The withered leaf which had laid on the ground lifelessly a few seconds ago suddenly took the form of a sharp, flying weapon like a small pointed arrow and pierced a spot on the ground which was just directly in front of Cyprus' foot.There was an uncomfortable silence in the courtyard. Augustus and Cyprus were staring at the withered leaf on the ground wide-eyed. They trembled slightly with shock.This was a withered leaf which could be easily crushed with one's palm. But Kian had so easily turned a dead leaf into a weapon! How is that possible?! What level exactly must one's strength be to do this?"Look," Kian pointed at the leaf still thrusted into the ground. "I didn't even use any of my internal energy. I only channeled my strength just like you did with that spear. This can also be considered a peak level in martial arts right?" Kian shrugged. "What do you think? Could it be compared?"Cyprus opened and closed his mouth severally. Even after a few minutes, he couldn't s
The Legendary King Of War Returns 0240: Since You Want To Die...
Cyprus shuddered at Kian's words and didn't attempt to move forward. He hesitated; one couldn't tell if it was because he was scared or because the confidence he portrayed earlier was gone. Either way, he knew clearly. Kian is too powerful and he is simply no match for him!Just the leaf which had missed his foot purposefully was enough to defeat him. "I... I... I... Don't..." He stuttered, unable to construct a complete sentence.Kian's lips curled up mockingly. "How did you get into this sect in the first place? You're such a coward! There is no difference between you and a waste! Daring to pick up a fight but quick to surrender! What right do you have to call yourself a disciple of elder Augustus Vane? You don't even dare to fight back, what kind of a warrior are you?!""Forget about being a warrior, you are not even worthy of being regarded as a man!"Kian hurled insults at him one after the other, his tone full of ridicule. Augustus and Wesley could easily see what he was trying
The Legendary King Of War Returns 0241: Mastered His Move
Cyprus' spear thrusted forward fiercely, constantly trying to penetrate from various sides, angles that were so tricky even an ordinary martial artist would have difficulty defending himself.CLANK!CLANK!CLANK!However, facing such vicious attacks, Kian remained on one spot calmly. He just simply continued to casually use his spear to defend himself against Cyprus' attacks. Although he did this nonchalantly, his spear accurately parried Cyprus' attack. This attitude of his... His nonchalant defensive moves, his calm expression and unflinching reaction left Cyprus stunned.At that moment, several people had gathered in the courtyard and were watching from a safe distance. They were all the other disciples of the Sacred Shadow sect who had heard the noise and come to see what was going on. Facing the combative scene in front of them, they were dumbfounded.The unfamiliar, young man standing at one center of the courtyard, looked very weak and at one glance, could be easily mistaken a
The Legendary King Of War Returns 0242: Confuse The Opponent
Cyprus' spear collided with Kian's spear again and sparks flew. Just then, he heard Kian say, "Remember, the real purpose of this move is not to attack but to force the other person to defend himself against you so you can discover other flaws."As soon as Kian finished speaking, he twirled his spear around. The weapon spun around and took advantage of Cyprus' defensive move to pierce from another angle. This was still the same spear technique Cyprus had used before but this time, more vicious."This one is the elimination strike."WHOOSH!Cyprus didn't have time to defend himself before the tip of the spear grazed his chest and tore his robe open. Kian didn't stop there. Taking advantage of Cyprus' distraction, he thrusted his spear towards his lower abdomen."And this is to confuse the other person."SLASH!Cyprus finally reacted this time and hurriedly tried to block the attack with his spear but the black tasseled tip of the other spear already cut through his robe once again, exp
The Legendary King Of War Returns 0243: Sexual Orientation
To think that from the beginning to that moment, Kian only used his physical strength. He didn't even use any internal energy. He has been suppressing his internal energy. He had suppressed his strength and internal energy, lowering himself to Cyprus' rank.However, even then, Cyprus still couldn't resist at all. He didn't even get the chance to touch a hair on Kian's head and was completely defeated.What kind of rank has Kian attained exactly? What was the true level of his strength? Cyprus dared not even imagine or think of it.Not only him, everyone else in the courtyard except Wesley were in a daze. They were reflecting and analyzing Kian's moves. They were also trying to comprehend his definition of the true nature of the spear techniques.Needless to say, even Augustus Vane who had been practicing martial arts for decades has learnt and benefited greatly from Kian's teaching."I, Cyprus of the Sacred Shadow sect, pay my respects to you!"Cyprus, now in a pitiful state, suddenly

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
