Charmaine was speechless, wondering if Seth did not know what it meant.However, as she thought about it, something suddenly dawned on her.Seth was strong, but his origins were mysterious.Perhaps the person backing him could rival the Jacques family.The bigwigs' eyes twinkled.Everyone in the circle knew that Charmaine's fiercest pursuers were Kronk and the man before them.If any ordinary man got too close to Charmaine, they would end up being crippled, having their businesses fail, or going bankrupt.Despite Roman Jacque's gentle appearance, he was a ruthless person.By this time, someone had whispered in Roman's ear that Charmaine had helped Seth get food.Roman looked at Seth. "You don't look familiar. I wonder which hidden sect you're from."Elsewhere, Third-ranked or Fourth-ranked Warriors were respected and loved.However, it was a different story in Imperial City.Anyone here could cause major turmoil in every industry with a stomp of their foot.They also had m
Seth's slap practically triggered a huge earthquake.He slapped that man's face, but he also humiliated Roman at the same time.Roman looked at Charmaine and said calmly, "I can't let it be for your sake this time. That guy has to die."Considering his family's position, he had to kill Seth today, or it would be a stain on his family's name.They would become a laughingstock.Charmaine quickly stepped in front of Seth. "Can we just call it even? After all… you guys were the ones who started this."Roman's eyes flared up. "Are you going against me for his sake?"Nobody was perfect.Roman had many strengths, but he had one huge flaw.He was extremely jealous by nature.In his eyes, Charmaine's actions were equivalent to cheating on him.His anger burned in his chest, and his tone became even colder. "I'm sorry, I can't do it this time. Get out of the way!"He then turned to Seth. "If you're still a man, don't hide behind a woman!"Seth smiled and suddenly wrapped his arms ar
He was said to be undefeated by anyone below the level of Grandmaster.With someone like that as his opponent, Charmaine was not confident that Seth could win.Roman could not wait to kill Seth. He led his men straight to the arena.Charmaine shook her head and whispered into Seth's ear, "Don't worry. I won't let you die. I'll keep you alive no matter what."Seth laughed in spite of himself.She was overthinking things.Still, he did not explain further.Everyone arrived at the arena. Tiger went onto the stage first and took off his coat.His muscles were like the trunk of an old tree. They were well-defined and tightly, intertwined, exuding an aura of strength.In contrast, Seth looked very thin and weak, as if he could be knocked down with a single punch.A professional referee was invited onto the stage, where he gave a few simple explanations.The main thing was that the fighters were not allowed to use any weapons."The first match begins now!"With that, the referee
Bam!Their fists collided with a dull thud.Tiger froze.This was a little different from what he had expected!He thought he would have at least shattered Seth's bones with that punch.In the end, however, Seth was completely fine after that collision.In fact, his feet did not even budge from where he stood.Tiger snorted coldly. "I see, you're not completely useless. No wonder you're so arrogant. Take this, my Lightning Fist!"He swung his fists as fast as lightning.Everyone could only see the shadows of his fists.Roman took a sip of red wine and said confidently, "Tiger can kill an adult buffalo with a single punch. At his fastest speed, he can throw thirty punches in a second. That kid won't be able to block everything."Charmaine's stomach lurched with anxiety.Soon, though, she relaxed.Seth's feet seemed to be rooted in the ring, and he held one hand behind his back.He only used one hand to block Tiger's barrage of attacks!No matter how fast Tiger was, he cou
As everyone watched, Tiger's fist reached Seth.The powerful wind from his punch made Seth's clothes flutter.Tiger was confident he could maim Seth with this punch!"Kid, you can't even react in time!"Those were his last words.The next moment, a sharp pain exploded from his fist and instantly spread throughout his entire body.His vision turned black, and he lost consciousness completely.With a thud, Tiger fell to the ground.The thud he made as he hit the floor struck everyone's hearts like a heavy hammer."Impossible!"Roman was the first to react.He jumped up from his seat, the glass of red wine crashing to the ground.He placed his hands on the railing, his gaze fixed on Seth in the ring.The others also reacted one after another. The way they looked at Seth changed drastically."He's a Grandmaster!" someone muttered to himself.Although the voice was not loud, everyone in the venue could hear it.Charmaine felt her mouth go dry, and she licked her lips self-co
"I'll give you two hundred million. End of story!"Such was the world of the rich.He would rather pay two hundred million in place of a single apology!There were many wealthy people here, but not many were willing to spend that much money.Seth smiled. "I may not be as rich as you, but I don't need two hundred million. I won't rest until you apologize!"Just then, a group of men in black approached him.They all had their right hand in their pockets. There was a high chance that these men had firearms.They surrounded Seth, looking far from friendly.Roman said coldly, "You're not worth of my apology. If you insist, you might just get into an unfortunate accident someday!"Clack, clack, clack…Charmaine came over, her heels tapping against the floor as she stood shoulder-to-shoulder with Seth.She leaned close to Seth's ear and whispered, "He represents the Jacques family's reputation. He would rather fight to the death than apologize in public."I suggest asking for more
"Second Master Jacques!""What brings you here?""You seem as spry as ever, Second Master Jacques."…Charmaine's expression became very solemn.Beside her, Seth could clearly feel her body tensing. It was rare for her to seem so nervous.He asked, "Who is that old man?"Charmaine whispered back, "He's Second Master Jacques, the real second-in-command at Farland."He's very experienced and ruthless. Once he sets his sights on someone, they can't get away. He's much more capable than Roman."Seth nodded and said nothing more.When Roman saw the old man, he lowered his head, his previous arrogance nowhere to be seen. "Second Uncle, why are you here?"Second Master Jacques snorted. "As businessmen, the most important thing to us is our credibility."If you lost, admit it!"Roman could only nod reluctantly. "I understand, Second Uncle. Bring me the contract…"He signed the contract and transferred the shares to Charmaine on the spot.Charmaine read the contract carefully,
Of course, there was no way they could catch up to him.At the same time, Charmaine sat in the car, checking her messages.Everyone was talking about Seth!"That guy is amazing!"Charmaine let out a wistful sigh.Her female driver was also one of her trusted aides.The driver said curiously, "Boss, it's rare to hear you praise someone like that."Charmaine's eyes flashed with surprise. "That young man is someone special!"Not only is he a strong warrior, but he has plenty of assets too."Furthermore… He earned everything with his own two hands."Charmaine's admiration of Seth rose to an unprecedented level.The female driver teased her, "Boss, since he's so outstanding, why don't you work a little harder and make him yours?"Charmaine was not shy at all. Instead, she nodded seriously. "That's what I was thinking. He can't get away from me!"Charmaine's eyes sparkled.She had every confidence in her charm. She would definitely be able to win Seth over!As they chatted, th
