Ashley's expression kept shifting, gnashing her teeth furiously. This bastard! Why were so many willing to help him? He was useless trash. What right did he have?Gritting her teeth, she whimpered pitifully, "Young Master Reed, maybe...let's forget it?" Hearing this, Kenneth Reed's face turned purple with rage. He felt looked down on by a woman. Furious, he yelled, "Don't get complacent Ronald Butler! I refuse to believe you'll act against me for Jason's sake. The trash will suffer today no matter who comes!"Hearing this, icy killing intent flashed in Jason's eyes!But just then, a dignified, imposing voice scoffed coldly from beside them, "Oh? I'm curious to see which punk is so arrogant. What if it were me instead?"At these words, over a hundred people in the hall reacted, craning their necks to see who would dare speak so arrogantly. Could it be another heir?In all previous Youth Summits, there had never been such a fierce dispute involving four major family heirs over a worth
Kenneth Reed yelled furiously, kicking her aside as he hastily explained himself.But Gary Flores just slowly started smiling, a very happy smile that scared countless people witless. It was over, Mr. Flores was angry!In truth, Gary Flores really did want to laugh this time. Without exposing King's identity, he had no good reason to severely punish Kenneth Reed. He never expected such a perfect excuse to land in his lap. Heaven helps me!But then he suddenly turned to Jason and Susan, saying, "What punishment do you two want for them? Don't be afraid, speak up. I'll uphold justice for you."Of course he was asking for Jason's opinion. "No need, we're...we're fine." Susan didn't want to stir up trouble, also afraid of offending the Reed family.But Jason strongly stated, "One should be repaid in kind!" Hearing this, Gary Flores' eyes lit up. He furiously pointed at Kenneth Reed, "Break his legs! Slap his face swollen! Keep going until he apologizes to these two. The Reed family won
That night, Jason continued sleeping in the living room. Lawrence reported finding some clues and breakthroughs were imminent. Hearing this news, Jason breathed a sigh of relief. Finally there were some leads. Further waiting would have tried his patience. He would have had to send out those former subordinates of his. While capable, their methods tended to be heavy-handed.Like slaying a chicken with an ox cleaver.At the same time, there was news regarding Arthur Howard, the top martial artist in Central Area, the strongest fighter!With his top disciple dead, this master was naturally on the move. By now, he likely had received word, though his exact whereabouts remained unknown. But rumor had it he was headed for Emerald City already!And...in a thunderous rage!Steven Martin, Lawrence, and the others sensed an impending storm, oppressed and lost, with tightness in their chests, as if a terrifying, earth-shattering calamity could befall them any moment.It would be a lie to say
Although only seeing Jason fight a few times, when he was captured earlier, the mysterious figure behind him had struck with the force of thunder, instantly defeating his seven or eight skilled subordinates who took ages just to get back up.He felt if that man wanted to kill, it would take but an instant. All his men would have died.Even as an outsider with limited skills, he was deeply shaken witnessing that scene. Carl Cooper's Arhat's Formless Hand compared was far too lacking. No, there was no comparison at all, like a child versus a martial arts master.Too powerful, no one could match him!Not even ten Seans or Kyles, let alone Mr. Gray who, while strong, was surely no match for this man!But just as he finished speaking, a foot suddenly stomped down on his back, revealing the mysterious figure's true face - Central Area's top expert, Arthur Howard!"It's you, who defeated my disciple Carl Cooper and even secretly killed him." Arthur Howard looked down on all with indifference
Even if paying lip service, they could not truly believe it in their hearts!Because it was simply impossible!Amidst the absurdity, Arthur Howard's breathing grew ragged as he glared at the confident Jason, too angry to even laugh. "You bastard, you actually dare claim to defeat me in one punch? Do you know what you're saying? Do you know who you're talking to?""I am acknowledged as Central Area's top master, the strongest expert. Not just being my match, few even have the qualifications to challenge me. This old man has gone decades undefeated. Yet an arrogant whelp like you dares such insolence?""Good, very good. Today I will kill you and personally shatter every bone in your wretched body, making you suffer agonizingly with no...place to be buried!" Faced with such astonishing killing intent and blazing fury like crushing waves, everyone's breathing hitched.It was as if time itself had frozen in this moment!Yet Jason remained unyielding, facing the tremendous pressure with r
Yet Jason disdained wasting words with him. Directly stomping and smashing the bone in his arm, grinding his slender, delicate fingers. "My patience is limited. Don't make me repeat myself. Answer me, who exactly are you?""No...don't...argghhh!" Arthur Howard let out a miserable shriek, the pain excruciating. The tendons were connected to the heart. This agony was like having his heart ripped out. His entire life of martial arts lay in these hands. If crippled, he would be finished."I...I really don't know what you're saying?"Steven Martin wiped some blood and crawled over, anxiously saying, "Mr. Gray, could you have made a mistake? I've gathered intel on Arthur Howard, this is definitely him! And he knows Arhat's Formless Hand!"Amidst their shock and disbelief, Jason coldly snorted. "You can deceive others but not me. Years ago, Arthur Howard encountered mortal danger. I was the one who saved him." "From that experience, he gained insights and has been in closed-door seclusion
At his words, Steven Martin and the others quickly inspected, finding these subtle details were all accurate.He really was Benjamin Howard!Yet Benjamin himself was scared out of his wits, how could he know these things? Not only completely correct but with details even he was unaware of. He thought no one knew of his existence, yet now there were so many holes. Those closest might not notice but Jason found them so quickly.Besides Heavenly Net's Heavenly Eye, none other in the world!Benjamin was truly frightened. Just who was this man to command Heavenly Eye's actions?Too terrifying!Jason nodded at this time, finally confirming the man's identity. Retracting his foot, he raised a brow. "Tell me, who sent you here?"For Benjamin Howard to come to Emerald City, first capturing Steven Martin then the Krav Maga Gym, he must have received advance notice to be so accurate. Were he any weaker, he might have already fallen for a scheme. Under their scrutiny, Benjamin Howard did not d
Soon, Heavenly Eye sent back some news. There did seem to be some connection between Joseph Rogers and the Black Lotus Sect, tied to the turmoil from five years ago. Jason immediately thought of Lawrence, and that Evil Doctor, the shameless renegade of the traditional medicine community! He had wondered about this issue before. Joseph Rogers betrayed Lawrence, and the Sanchez family moved to destroy him. But where did this mysterious Evil Doctor come from? He was no ordinary man. But it made sense if he was from the Black Lotus Sect.Perhaps that Evil Doctor was one of them, helping establish Joseph Rogers' domination of Emerald City!Another piece of news surprised Jason somewhat. His eldest brother Justin Wesley had apparently found a bone marrow donor, a tightly guarded secret that had still been discovered. Preparations were underway for a transplant surgery.Still clinging to life? But even if the transplant succeeded, his strange illness could apparently not be completely cu
