Her emotions were even more heightened than the previous night.“Truly a wild spirit!”Seth snorted coldly. He moved quickly and repeatedly slapped her in the same spot five or six times.“Miss!”The bodyguards outside heard the commotion and rushed in.What they saw left them stunned.In their eyes, the pure and untouched Charmaine was now roughly pinned to a table by a man. “Let her go!”“You’re courting death!”…The bodyguards were visibly enraged, their voices full of fury as they advanced.“Back off!”Seth bellowed, using the renowned Lion’s Roar technique.Visible sound waves radiated in all directions.The bodyguards felt like their heads were spinning, and before they could get close, they collapsed while foaming at the mouth.Seth continued his assault The sharp and clear sound of his actions echoed in the room.Shame!Anger!Helplessness!Despair! A myriad of emotions surged within Charmaine.Her lip was nearly bleeding from her biting down on it.W
“That guy was quite bold last night!”Jade only heard about Seth’s doing in the morning.Her secretary, Yulia, was reporting next to her. She replied, “Yes, he even had the guts to confront Roman and kill his most trusted subordinate. Now, he’s probably being hunted down throughout the city.”Resting her cheek in her hand, Jade visualized Seth’s handsome face and turned pale. “Crap. What will I do if he’s killed?”“Don’t worry, I won’t die.”An abrupt voice echoed in the room, startling both women.Seth had appeared as if out of thin air. Both women stared in shock.Jade looked as if she had seen a ghost. “You’re still alive?!”Seth smiled, asking, “Is that so surprising?”After taking a few deep breaths to calm herself, Jade responded, “It is impressive. You actually managed to escape from the Jacques family.”Seth pulled off the mask from his face, crushed it, and threw it in the trash. Standing up, he said, “Come on, I’ll perform dry needling on you.”Jade got up and
As he passed by Jade’s room, the door happened to be open.Then, he saw Jade and her secretary walking out, one behind the other.Oddly enough, both of their faces were flushed.Seth asked, “What happened to you two?”Jade looked as flustered as a thief caught red-handed.The secretary appeared more composed. She coughed and said, “It’s nothing, just girl stuff. You shouldn’t pry.”Not dwelling on it, Seth informed Jade, “I need to go out for a bit.”After saying that, he put on a new mask.This time, it resembled a middle-aged man.He also had one prepared for Lucy.“Go, go, go, hurry up.”Jade said, waving her hand. After having done something unspeakable and then accidentally running into Seth, she felt very flustered.Seth continued, “I’m bringing Lucy, Alaska’s mother, to stay over. Is that alright?”“It’s fine.”Before leaving, Seth gave her a curious glance.Once he had left, Jade heaved a sigh of relief. She then shot her secretary a look. “You can’t do that agai
When the burly man saw Seth, who was seemingly unimpressive and slender, interfering in his business, he became furious. “Trash, is this any of your business?”With a cold expression, Seth replied, “I’ll say it one more time, get lost!”The burly man immediately swung his massive fist toward Seth’s face.“I’ll finish you up, trash!”“No, stop!”A scream came from the young girl behind Seth.People on the bus averted their gaze, not bearing to watch.In their eyes, the relatively slender Seth stood no chance against the burly man.A scream rang out, but it was not from Seth. It came from the burly man.Everyone looked up in surprise.Before them, Seth had the burly man pinned underfoot. He was screaming in pain.Whispers of shock spread throughout the bus, and the young girl’s eyes shone with astonishment.Seth glared at the man. “You’re a disgrace to men. Have you realized your mistake?”The burly man’s face turned beet red as he roared. “Who do you think you are? Do you e
Inside a dormitory at Imperial City’s university, Shirley Shrill opened the door to find that all her roommates had gone to eat, leaving her alone.She placed her belongings on her bed and turned on her second-hand computer that she had bought for 50 dollars.She adeptly logged into a stock trading software.On it, several stocks were highlighted in green.She had been following these stocks for years but never had the money to invest.Shirley clicked on the top stock and began typing rapidly.To outsiders, she might appear clueless, but at that moment, her eyes sparkled with determination. It completely transformed her demeanor.If she changed her attire, she would have looked every bit the powerful businesswoman.After a series of operations, she muttered to herself, “This stock is at its lowest point now. If I invest now, its value could increase tenfold within a week!”Without hesitation, she invested the two grand that Seth had transferred to her....Seth pushed open t
A month later, he intended to bankrupt the Yates family.If one wanted to rise to power, nothing could be faster than stepping over the bodies of a prominent family.After comforting Rosemary for a bit and advising her to stay safe, Seth ended the call.About 20 minutes later, the car reached its destination.Seth stepped out, bags in hand.Both Seth and Alaska looked ordinary, so no one paid them any attention.After walking a few kilometers, Seth’s eyes sharpened.He saw some ‘familiar faces’ up ahead!They were four women dressed alike, tall with athletic builds. However, their outfits could not hide their stunning figures.They were quadruplets and had once been Zephyr’s bodyguards!Seth had been interested in recruiting them at one point but had forgotten due to other matters. The fact that the quadruplets were in Imperial City was unexpected.Could Zephyr have come too?Seth recalled incapacitating him. Perhaps he came to Imperial City for treatment…Indeed, that w
Jade had sent over eight or nine photos.Each one was sultry and provocative, capable of immediately stirring a man’s desires.Of course, these were not pictures of her but of her secretary!Accompanying the images was a text message:[How about it? My secretary has a great figure, doesn’t she?]After viewing them, Seth was momentarily speechless. He shook his head and deleted all the photos.Inside the room, after the mother and daughter had their emotional reunion, they began to whisper between themselves.Lucy asked, “How far have you gone with him? Have you...?”Blushing, Alaska responded, “No, we have a very pure relationship.”For some reason, Lucy felt relieved hearing this.Then, she continued, “Tell me more about him. How powerful is he to have rescued you from Kronk Yates?”At that moment, she was incredibly curious about Seth.Alaska hesitated, sharing what she knew and could reveal about Seth.Although she did not say much, Lucy was profoundly shocked after hea
“You’re all already Peak Third-ranked Warriors. I’ll help you break through right now."Once they heard him say this, the quadruplets were both elated and doubtful.Traditionally, martial arts progression depended on one’s own efforts. Could he really assist them?Their doubts were soon addressed.The quadruplets’ surname was Merian, and they were named after seasons—Spring, Summer, Autumn, and Winter.Seth called Spring over first.He instructed her to sit cross-legged with her back to him.Placing his hands on her back, he released a powerful inner energy.Spring trembled as she felt two streams of energy flow from her back throughout her body, clearing blocked channels.In just ten minutes, she broke through.She had already been on the cusp of this breakthrough, but without Seth’s help, it would have taken her much longer.Few in the world possessed such potent inner energy as Seth.“I’ve truly broken through!” Spring exclaimed excitedly, and her sisters shared her exci
