The noisy discussions in the audience instantly positioned Xena as a naive girl who was inexperienced in the world, and Irving as an unforgivable villain.Although Irving was a man with extraordinary skills and strong combat powers at this time, he was still only an eighteen-year-old boy after all. Even when he was in school, teachers didn't even give him a chance to get up and answer questions in class. He had never had a chance to speak loudly in front of an audience before. How could he calmly face this group of notable people in the audience?Irving suppressed his anxiety, narrowed his eyes, and clenched his fists subconsciously."Look at how poor his mental quality is. I am so angry right now. Hmph!!" Someone in the audience shouted, and everyone even laughed at Irving.Xena stood behind Irving and naturally noticed something strange about him. She also heard the words of the people in the audience that seemed to care about her, but in fact were mixed with many careless words.She
The old man called "Grand Uncle" by everyone was not very tall, with sparse white hair and a face full of age spots. Grand Uncle's eyes were very small, so even if he opens his eyes wide at this moment, he gave people a gloomy feeling as if he was squinting at them.Seeing that everyone's appetite had been whetted by him, the Grand Uncle smiled, stood up and waved his hand as a greeting to everyone. Then he stared at Bauer, who had a gloomy face, and said with an even stronger smile: "Baishu, I have watched you grow up, but you did not do the right thing this time. Although the Silverwood family is generally ruled by your direct lineage, you have tied so many collateral branches to this sinking ship, so I have to blame you. After all, they are more or less the descendants of our Silverwood ancestors."Bauer's face was so gloomy that water was about to drip out of it. It was not because of the sudden appearance of this old man and his alarmist words that misled people, but because he d
Irving's hand was instantly pinched. Naturally, he knew the only one who could pinch his hand was Xena. When he looked at Xena's face, he saw it was cold because of what the old man actually said. Wasn't that indirectly saying that Irving was walking in the shadows of death?Irving could feel Xena's anger. After all, her hand was intertwined with his own, and he could clearly feel Xena's emotions. He smiled and gently bumped Xena with his shoulder, and whispered, "Give me a chance. I promise, you won't regret it!"Xena showed a look of disapproval. After all, although she had not had much contact with this Grand Uncle, she knew from the stories her grandfather told her that this man was a scheming person. If he was not absolutely sure of himself, how could he come back so blatantly?Just looking at Irving's determined expression, Xena's heart was twisted like a dough stick. At this time, did she really want to undermine his confidence?Seeing Xena in such a dilemma, Irving's murderous
At this time, a young man who didn't look like an American, but more like a Southeast Asian, with a yellow complexion and a hint of dark tone, stood next to the Grand Uncle and said a lot of things. Irving didn't understand a word he said. What Irving didn't expect was that Xena, who was afraid that something would happen to him and had jumped off the stage with a sprained ankle, actually understood what he said. You know, this girl was the one who often encouraged him to skip classes and go out to play, but she actually understood Thai?Irving rolled his eyes, and Xena explained. "He said that he has many unique skills that cannot be seen by outsiders, and he has to fight in a closed room!"Seeing that Xena helped to explain, Grand Uncle did not repeat himself. He looked at Irving, waiting for a reply."Fuck, that's rare?" Irving blurted out. "Okay, let's go!"Xena forgot about the pain and all the people around her at this moment. She only felt that the back of the guy in front of
The incandescent lights in the room were unusually bright. Irving was in a guest room in this high-rise building with a good view of the surroundings. He looked down at the lights of thousands of homes and the bustling city. He curled up on the sofa, staring at the black card given to him by Bauer in his hand, lost in thought.It was unknown what material the card was made of. It was completely black and could not be broken or smashed. It was the size of a normal business card, and there was nothing else on the front except a number that was so dark red that it seemed to be bleeding.After staying in Silverwood's house for ten days, on the evening of the tenth day, after Bauer received a guest in the study, he carefully handed the black card to Irving and told Irving that the person who came to visit in the evening was the leader of this black list organization.Afterwards, of course, he said goodbye to Silverwoods, and then inexplicably followed this so-called guide to a pier, where h
The four cars sped along, and under the guidance of the female leader, they drove further and further in the opposite direction of the fireworks. Soon, the group of people came to the edge of the city, and under the guidance of the female leader, they abandoned the car and drove fast until they came to a dense jungle, and then they stopped to rest and catch their breath."Who are the reserve team members? Can't the five of us handle them? Why are we fleeing in such a hurry?" The short man who dealt with the security guard in the parking lot wiped the fine beads of sweat oozing from his forehead and asked the question that Irving wanted to ask with some indignation.At this time, the female leader seemed to have recovered her breath. She glanced at the short man and sneered. "Reserve members are those who are on the reserve Black List. They are strong enough but there are not enough vacancies to place them. One of the ways for them to be promoted to the Black List is to collect enough
The short man reacted very quickly. He suddenly pulled out a long dagger from his waist and rushed forward quickly. He chopped five times in a row with lightning speed. His behavior at this time had a kind of momentum to propel him forward. This short man appeared to be a very oppressive person. At this time, he was preparing to attack with all his strength, and he might have the intention of defeating the enemy in one move, so as to ensure his position as the leader of this team in the future.But the burly figure who was charging forward did not dodge or evade. Instead, he stretched out his hands and grabbed the wrist of the smaller man, causing his seemingly brilliant but actually useless sword skills to come to nothing.The burly figure just grabbed the little man's wrist, and with his other free hand he hit the little man's temple with his fist like a Warhammer. It was not difficult to tell from the powerful punch that he was intending to kill him.Sure enough, the sound of bone
Irving fled blindly, without any curiosity about the sudden movement behind him. He was in a panic and could not give a flying thought about the female leader who was five meters away from him.The two ran all the way. Irving seized an opportunity, turned his head and glared at the female leader, shouting. "Run separately. You have a better chance of escaping alone!"Looking at Irving's fake concerned look, the female leader chuckled and cursed, "Bullshit, don't even think about leaving me and running away. I'll follow you."In the female team leader's mind, Irving's ability to know in advance that the reserve team members were approaching was the best guarantee for escape at this time. Naturally, she could not abandon him and walk around alone in this dark jungle. If she accidentally ran into the reserve team members, she would be sorry for it. Moreover, if this kid got lost, where could she find him later?Seeing that the woman was indifferent and dared
Soon, the food came up.Seeing Shayne wolfing down the food, Irving sighed and said. "Didn't Scar leave some money for you? Why do you look like you've been hungry for several days?"Hearing Irving's question, Shayne's eyes instantly turned red, and he said with murderous intent: "Scar left me 20,000 dollar, part of which was for my mother's medical treatment. My mother's eyesight is not very good, and Scar was afraid that when he left, I would find no way out for the time being. So he gave me some money so that I could use to take care of my mother and open a small shop to maintain my life. But after he left, the group of local big brothers turned their focus on me, and sent people to block my path every other day. If the money for my mother's treatment had not been given to the hospital, I am afraid it would have been taken by them."Irving motioned Shayne to continue eating, then he glanced at Xena who was thinking with her chin in her hand and said. "E
Irving still remembered the young man who stopped him. Although he was a little different from Shayne, who was fearless and had the word "bad guy" carved on his head, his facial features had not changed much. But what happened to him that gave him the scar that looked like a knife injury across his nose?"Shayne?" Irving asked knowingly."Hey." Shayne responded respectfully, then looked around with a vigilant look on his face and said, "Irving, thank goodness I found. I think Scar is in trouble. I can't find him. This is not like him."This kind of thing was not a thunderbolt for Irving. After all, he was not familiar with Scar, and Scar's job was to fight on the streets as a thug, which was inherently risky. Who knew when he would run into a someone above him who would want to kill him? But since Shayne said that he had been looking for him for a long time, this matter should not be that simple.Irving held Xena's little hand, raised his chin slightly, and motioned Shayne to continue
After Thomas sat down, Nancy saw that there were three people on this side and only Thomas on the other side, so she stood up meaningfully and sat down next to him, while Xena and Irving buried their heads and ate voraciously, since it didn't cost any money anyway.After lunch, Irving began to admire the man named Thomas. Not only was he thick-skinned, but his vision and eloquence were beyond the reach of ordinary people.During this period, Nancy's subtle flirting made Irving associate Thomas with the Mr. Howard mentioned by the gossiping girls in the class that morning.In the afternoon, facing Ramona who looked like he was ready to eat anyone, Irving frankly explained that he fainted due to exhaustion because he was busy moving too many things. During this time, he was met by the enthusiastic classmate Xena, who sent him to the hospital.Ramona had already studied Irving's information during her free time at noon. She certainly did not believe the test
The school cafeteria had made a lot of money on the first day of school. Just looking at the huge crowds of people, one could tell that the food in the school today should not be bad. After all, no one was stupid to waste money on bad food. If one was stupid enough to buy some unpalatable food, health would suffer from it.Especially on a first day of school like this, after all, the cafeteria is open for the first day of the semester, so there is no way there will be leftovers. Students also knew this, so not many people go to the school gate to open a hot-dog stands.Xena dragged Irving along as they rushed along with a burning heart. The classmates who were bumped into on the road smiled kindly and said nothing after seeing that it was Xena.When he came to the entrance of the cafeteria, Irving looked at the densely packed heads, swallowed his saliva and said. "With this number of students, even if you queue up to buy food, there is no place to sit. How about I treat you to outside
Seeing that her appearance instantly attracted everyone, the woman nodded with satisfaction, and then said calmly. "Hello, students. I am your homeroom teacher this semester. Today is the first day we met, so it is proper to introduce ourselves. I also hope that we can get along well."The woman said something nice and introduced herself: "My name is Esther Robinson, but you can call me Miss Robinson. I am your homeroom teacher this semester, and I teach English Literature." After that, she smiled and pointed to a girl in the first row near the door and said: "Well, classmate, you should start by introducing yourself. Speak loudly so that I can get to know you better and to also increase your own confidence."Looking at Miss Robinson on the stage, who was pulling the strings with the students with applause, and the students below the stage who had no ambition at all and were shouting out their names, Irving smiled helplessly. It was his turn."Irving Smiths!" Irving stood up quickly.
Xena's reluctant farewell to Irving was naturally seen by many people. This was very disappointing to those who thought that Xena should be tired of Irving after one summer vacation and should have abandoned him, and they once again secretly sighed that Xena really had a good taste.Because the new semester had just started, Irving came to his original classroom. At this time, the doorplate outside the classroom had changed from grade 12 to grade 13, and the students who arrived early in the classroom seemed to have not really felt the learning atmosphere that grade 12 should have.After all, it's just the beginning of a new session. After all, they haven't seen each other for so long, so they always have to get familiar with each other again and brag to each other about the ups and downs of the past two months."You know what, when my dad and I were playing in Tokyo, Japan, the ground was shaking so much. If I hadn't been quick-witted, I might have been buried..." A boy with glasses
"What you lack is time. After all, she is also a successor, and she has obviously practiced for more time than you." Caden thought for a moment and said carefully, "But don't think that the successor is a symbol of invincibility, because all inheritances are passed down from others, so even if you practice to perfection, you would have only reached a level that others have already reached. Besides, those people might not be really as great as they thought, after all, they were all dead...""Don't talk about such things now. Why do you like talking about death so much? Anyway, please tell me, if Samantha and I really have a death fight, what are the chances of me winning?" Irving interrupted Caden. He didn't have time to care about the affairs of the predecessors, or about them dying. After all, Samantha had said that she would assassinate him anytime and anywhere."The vertical eye is something that ordinary inheritors cannot use. Although it is just a replica, it is also extremely po
In the early morning of the next day, Irving raised his hand to turn off the alarm as soon as it rang as usual, then he sat up with a somersault and practiced in silence.Just after two hours, Irving, who had been sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed, slowly opened his eyes. He did not go out to exercise as usual. Following the ventilation machine, he leaned back slightly, leaned against the wall, and directly called back Caden, who was pulled away by Xena to sleep with him:"There are some things I think I need to understand clearly."Caden raised her hand and yawned, holding back her complaints about Xena's poor sleeping posture. She pursed her lips, pulled out a toothpick from behind her, put it in her mouth and said unscrupulously, "Ask.""Am I strong enough for now?" Irving said in a serious tone.Caden blinked, and for a moment she seemed unable to acknowledge it. Then she became angry, raised her finger and pointed at Irving. "You disturbed me so early just to make me appr
In Caden's eyes, a beauty should not have to do housework. How could a beauty like her do the heavy work of cleaning the room? What if her hands get calluses and her skin becomes rough even if she was just a spirit guide?After Caden went in to appease Xena, Irving began to make plans.At the same time, Xena did not roll around on the floor with the door closed as Irving imagined. She sat quietly on the bed, talking to someone on the phone with a serious expression. "Well, the information is what I gave you. If you can't find out, you can stop doing this business... What does a long time mean? You have a very good reputation in the industry... Okay, I believe you, you have to find out for me no matter how long it takes. You don't have to worry about the money... Well, I'll wait for your feedback.""Hmm..mmm""How did you get in?" Xena hung up the phone and looked at Caden who came in directly through the door, clearing her throat."You two are in a
