Helen signaled to the man who held Tom's wife, indicating that he should take her away. A chair was brought for her, and she sat down. Bald Liu stood behind her, smoking a cigarette. With a smile on her face, she glanced at Tom and said, "I knew you wouldn't surrender completely. Unfortunately, you have a more intelligent subordinate. He pleaded with me not to kill your wife because of how well you've treated him in the past. However, he also recognized that none of you are more powerful than me and chose to surrender. Only a wise man would do that."Tom let out a sigh. Bald Liu's betrayal had deeply affected him. Despite being his subordinate, Tom considered Bald Liu to be like a brother, but Bald Liu had stabbed him in the back in pursuit of more power.Bald Liu spoke, "Tom, I understand that you might hate me, but I did this for us. We don't have enough power to challenge her. Furthermore, by aligning ourselves with her, we can dominate the underground world of Fairview. Why not fol
Alexander quickly deduced the true identity of the old man, prompting him to respectfully bow in his direction. On the other hand, Isabel felt a mixture of fear and concern, but she was willing to sacrifice her own life to protect Alexander if these individuals intended to harm him.With a stern expression, Alexander addressed Hasen directly, seeking to understand his intentions. "What do you want?" he inquired.Hasen's lips curled into a smile as he casually wiped his mouth. "As I mentioned before, I was hoping for a more formidable opponent in you, but it seems I may have overestimated your abilities. Nonetheless, I'll consider you a challenge simply due to your true identity."Alexander attempted to interject, but Hasen dismissed him with a wave of his hand.Observing Alexander being disrespected infuriated Isabel, and she was on the verge of taking action. However, a single glance from the old man exerted a tremendous amount of pressure on her, causing her to struggle against it.
As Isabel stepped down from the car, she smiled.The man smirked confidently, underestimating Isabel's abilities. "Ah, the little girl wants to play," he taunted, his voice dripping with arrogance. "I hope you're prepared to be defeated."Although he couldn't discern Isabel's realm, he didn't care much as he assumed she must be weaker. Just as Isabel was about to step forward, Alexander intervened, reminding her of the Hasen situation."You remember the Hasen situation, right?" Alexander asked.Isabel nodded, her recollection clear."I have to get stronger, and that means pushing myself to the limits and not giving up," Alexander continued.Isabel replied hesitantly, "But..."Alexander interrupted her, determined to make his point. "Do you want to see me lose to Hasen? This is one way to improve my capabilities."Without saying anything else, Alexander ran quickly towards his enemy, barely noticing his injuries from previous fights. The smell of adrenaline filled the air as he attacke
Helen, who was sitting in the car, experienced a surge of fear that filled her mind. In the past, she had harbored feelings of satisfaction at the mere thought of Alexander's demise, but now her emotions had taken an unexpected turn. She no longer wished for him to die, and this conflicting realization left her in a bewildered state.Amidst the chaos, Alexander gasped for breath, barely able to speak as he whispered, "Even if the physical body dies, as long as the mind endures, the Warrior never truly dies." These words carried a profound meaning.As Alexander's eyes began to close, a fleeting moment passed, and suddenly, a faint golden light started emanating from his battered form. The unexpected sight captured the attention of both his adversary and Isabel, their expressions filled with surprise and fascination."He's breaking through!" the man exclaimed, his face contorted with anger. "He's using me as a mere stepping stone in his pursuit of greater power!" Fueled by outrage, he l
The man before them let out a mocking laugh, his bitter amusement echoing in the air. It was evident to him that the Taylor family had abandoned him completely, leaving him to face the consequences alone."Young master, you've just had a grueling battle. Please allow me to handle this," Isabel interjected, her voice filled with determination and concern.Alexander hesitated, his weariness evident, especially with Helen present. He didn't want Helen to be aware of Isabel's immense power, yet he felt drained and exhausted. Ultimately, he reluctantly nodded and said, "Okay."Taking a step forward, Isabel unleashed her formidable aura, radiating power to the very edges of its reach. With lightning speed, she darted through the group of eight men, gracefully weaving in and out among them. By the time she came to a halt, all eight men lay on the ground, not merely injured but lifeless.Helen, who had been observing the scene from the safety of the car, stared at Isabel in disbelief, her mou
After completing his shower and changing into a fresh set of clothes, Alexander emerged as a picture-perfect gentleman. Sporting a charming smile, he gracefully stepped into the waiting taxi, which had been flagged down by Isabel."Isabel, there's really no need for you to constantly shadow me from now on," Alexander remarked with a gentle tone.Isabel, inquisitive as ever, questioned, "Young master, are you trying to push me away? Even though you possess great strength now, there are still formidable enemies lurking out there. I can always serve as your loyal protector."Alexander affectionately patted her head and responded with a smile, "Silly girl, I'm not trying to get rid of you. I understand that I'll always need you by my side. However, I believe it's crucial for you to become stronger now. You're right about my adversaries growing more powerful, and I couldn't bear the thought of something happening to you while safeguarding me. So, take this opportunity to focus on your own
This wasn't the first time Alexander had heard about his extended stay in his mother's womb for 15 months. In fact, people had once regarded him as a cursed child, believing that such an extraordinary duration of pregnancy was a sign of something sinister. The nurses who were aware of this peculiar circumstance even taunted him, comparing him to a demon from hell. Not many people knew about it though, however, this time, someone had described it as a blessing and recognized his uniqueness.The old man chuckled and said, "There's no need for you to delve deeper into this matter at the moment. It would only serve as a distraction. Anyway, as I mentioned earlier, you're likely to face misfortune, and I'm here to assist you."As he spoke, the old man reached into his pocket and pulled out a folded piece of paper. Within the paper was a black pill, which emitted an unpleasant odor.Both Isabel and Alexander wrinkled their noses in response.The old man continued, "This pill is the solution
