How could this be? Why did this happen? Neal was so scared and confused at the moment! That was Prince Ryes! He was the true overlord of San Hanna, a man who dominated both the legal and illegal domains of the city! He was an existence whose prestige radiated over half of the Jardin province! Yet now, right in front of him, he actually… He was respectful toward Fred, who he did not look up to or take seriously.Was God playing a joke on him? Was this a dream?Even if it was a dream, this dream was a little too scary! "It seems that you can't come up with a reason for me not to kill you, right?" At that moment, Fred said indifferently with no expression.Those words also brought Neal back to reality at last. "Ah..."Neal still wanted to say something. He wanted to ask Prince Ryes what this was all about, but before he could say anything, an appalling pressure that seemed to want to crush all his bones into pieces burst out from Fred's body, causing Neal
"Of course, I mean it! More than its weight in silver and gold!" Neal hurriedly nodded desperately and said, "As long as… As long as you’re willing to let me live, I’ll give everything that the Chavez family owns with my own hands! There’ll be no second thoughts! We’ll never go against your word! From now on, the Chavez family are but dogs by your side!" Saying that, Neal was afraid that Fred would not believe him, so he hurriedly tried to imitate a dog barking. It was as realistic as ever! Seeing this, Fred sneered and asked, "How many days?" Days? What did he mean? Neal was a bit puzzled, but he soon realized that Fred was asking him how many days it would take for him to hand over all the businesses of the Chavez family to Fred.The first time he thought about this, Neal instantly hesitated.After all, he just said that just to save his life. How could Neal be willing to just hand over all his family's businesses? Looking at Fred's eyes that were gradually tur
Two pieces of good news and one piece of bad news? Which one should he listen to first? Listening to Stellar on the other end of the line, Fred leaned against the balcony railing. Exhaling lightly, he smiled. "Let's start with the good news!" "Yes!" Stellar immediately said, "The first piece of good news is that Isaiah's tomb has been found!" "Found?" Fred heard that and immediately responded faintly. A trace of relief appeared in his eyes.Although he executed Cyclops to avenge Isaiah, in the heat of his anger, he did not have time to ask about the location of Isaiah's grave. Peter himself was from San Hanna and did not follow Fred this time because of this very matter! Now that Isaiah's tomb has been found, it was a relief for Fred. On the other end of the phone, Stellar continued, "Great One, Peter and I have already cleaned his grave on your behalf this morning!" "Good!" Fred smiled faintly and sighed softly.The general was not allowed to visit a so
"Yes!"Stellar immediately added, "I thought he'd take action immediately after the three days we agreed upon were up, but the first thing he did after that was leave Sea City for a trip. After that, the province immediately sent their people to seize all of Fantastic Group's properties in Sea City!""The province?"Fred sneered coldly and commented, "It looks like he went to the province to cause all these problems since there was no one he could use in Sea City."Despite saying that, there was no sign of worry on his face at all. So what if the city sent someone over?So what if the province was the one planning to seize its property?No matter how much trouble Lucas was trying to bring them, it would all only be temporary.The identity Lucas was so proud of, along with his status that led others to think that he was a big shot, were all given to him by Fred, the revered Great One!A mere thought would be enough to destroy everything Lucas owned, as long as Fred was willing
“Get the chairman out!""That's right! Get him out here! ”"We require an explanation!""Give us justice!"That afternoon, a crowd had gathered at the entrance of the Fantastic Group’s headquarters in Sea City and the atmosphere was extremely lively!However, these people were not like the ones from before who had clamored to join the Fantastic Group. Instead, they were yelling agitatedly, each one louder than the last. Ripples of chaos flowed throughout the crowd as they stormed the doors of the headquarters building of Fantastic Group in an organized fashion.If it were not for the security guards at the door, pushing the mob back, it was likely that the inside of the building would have already succumbed to the chaos.At the french windows on the third floor of the building.Stellar, Shaun, as well as Herbert, Zachary, and the others, were watching the scene with tightly furrowed brows."I didn't expect Lucas to do something like this. It’s a pretty difficult situation to h
Shaun smiled slightly. "It's simple! While I don’t understand any of this business stuff, I can tell that the Cadmans are greedy... Extraordinarily greedy!"The Cadmans are greedy! Valerie is greedy! Her mother, Karen, is even more greedy!"Fantastic Group is a juicy bone they want to sink their teeth into. As such, Lucas will make sure not to damage Fantastic Group too much before securing it!" So now they were just putting pressure on us and raising tempers!"I believe it won't be long before he shows himself!”It would not be long?Stellar took in Shaun's words. When he saw the noisy crowd below again, they had already abruptly formed a path. Several men in suits then slowly made their way out of it."Everyone! Let me introduce you to Mr. Denver of South Sun Industry and Mr. Smith of Stygian Group. They are famous entrepreneurs in Jardin Province! ”Someone who had obviously been prepared for a long time immediately stood up and offered an introduction when these people appea
“He’s coming out! He’s coming out!” Seeing the closed doors of Fantastic Group finally opening slowly behind the guards, everyone suddenly quieted down and fixed their gazes upon it. Clatter! The sounds of neat footsteps from the five people—Stellar, and Shaun, followed by Herbert, Zachary, and Kelsey—sounded as they walked out and appeared before everyone. "What a pathetic wimp! Is he still planning to shrink his head like a tortoise?” Valerie abruptly scoffed when she saw the scene before her. She had no idea that Fred was currently not in Sea City. Looking at the five individuals and not a single trace of Fred’s silhouette, she was, of course, disdainful. "Everyone! Be quiet! ”Stellar naturally saw Valerie as well but did not pay any attention to her. Instead, he immediately boomed, "Fantastic Group has been at the top of the Somerland business community, both in terms of financial resources and connections, during the past five years! Please don't believe the
Their only chance of survival was to act!However, the moment they do, Lucas would mobilize with his people.That was the situation.“This ends now,” Valerie said with a cold sneer while wearing a haughty and disdainful expression.Vroom!At this crucial second, the roar of an engine sounded, stunning everyone.They watched as a Benz G-class drove up from not far away before coming to a gradual halt before the crowd.The eyes of Stellar and the rest of his crew lit up one after another—they knew Fred had returned!“Haha! How lively!”The door opened slowly, and the person inside stepped out slowly.Fred appeared before everyone.“Great One!”Stellar immediately went up to him and reported with shame, “I failed to handle matters here, my judgment was lacking. I will accept your punishment, Great One!”“Think nothing of it!”Fred waved his hand lightly before glancing at the crowd in front of him and saying, “Are you all here to welcome me?”Whoosh!With just a glance, th
Marciella walking away did not bode well with the giant snake. Marciella was its food! How could it accept that its food had escaped?Marciella had not moved far yet. She reluctantly looked back at Fred.She did not know how Fred would handle the River God. She could only hope Fred would be okay!When Fred saw that she had left, he geared up, rubbing his palms in glee. He had an eager look on his face, which confused the giant snake.It was the snake’s first time meeting a man like Fred!How strange indeed!At this time!Suddenly, Fred said with hostility etched on his face, "Hey, Big Snake, what are you going to do now?"The snake's attention was entirely focused on him, which seemed off to Fred."What I’m going to do?"The giant snake fixated its eyes on Fred. It felt that it could handle a human like Fred easily.“I’m going to kill you with one bite! How dare you look down on me like this!"The giant snake rushed toward Fred fiercely at a speed so fast that no one could
Fred was annoyed by the giant snake's arrogant tone. Fred squinted his eyes at the snake and asked in confusion, "Why are you making that face?"“Huh?"The giant snake was shocked. He thought that Fred would submit to him, but to his surprise, Fred was not shaken at all.The snake was about to lose his temper.“Dirty snake, haven't I made myself clear enough? I think you are probably sleep-talking if you want me to hand over my people to you..." Fred said impatiently.At this moment…Feeling that it was being ridiculed, the snake said suddenly, "You punk, this is the first time anyone spoke to me this way. What is your name?"“Me?"Fred was stunned subconsciously, not knowing what the snake wanted. Suddenly, he understood.“Did you want to know my name so you can remember me, bow down before me, and become my follower? Sure, I’ll give you that chance!"He was adding fuel to the fire. The giant snake almost spat out blood in anger!"What? You want me to follow an immature bei
Huh!?Putting aside Marciella, even Fred could not hide his shock as a giant snake appeared from under the water!A giant snake!How could it be!?Fred's eyes widened at the sheer size of the snake. "A Giant Snake… Is this the so-called River God?"Moreover, the size was humongous. The snake must be at least ten stories high!What a huge snake!Fred finally understood why he felt a powerful force under the water!There was a sharp glint in the giant snake’s eyes! That was the blinking light from time to time!"Who comes here? Are you from the village? Who do you plan to sacrifice to me this time?" As soon as the giant snake spoke, Fred realized that this was not the first time it had done this.The snake seemed familiar with the ritual process. Obviously, the villagers had witnessed this giant snake before. This was the meeting between the two sides! Fred felt uncomfortable at this. As for the giant snake, it felt bemused when it saw Fred. The snake had never seen Fred befo
Fred was going to risk it all to open this girl's eyes!The force from the punch was extraordinary! As soon as the tree was hit by the seismic fist, it fell immediately and the whole tree split neatly in two!Marciella was dumbfounded!Although she knew how powerful Fred was, to witness his power was a different thing entirely!"Master Fred, your power is insane!"Marciella could not help but applaud.Fred seemed indifferent, as though he had no feeling at all about this."Is it? Why do you think so?"He looked so indifferent.For Ancient Martial Arts, things did not get any simpler than this!"You’re so strong. Anyway, I don’t doubt you anymore..." Marciella sighed, suddenly feeling very sad. "This is the reward of being educated. If we were more knowledgeable, we wouldn’t be so clueless.”"Haha, if you can't solve your issues, your descendants can work harder," Fred said with a wink.Marciella said, "Mr. Fred, I needed to ask you something! What if our luck was changed ju
What Fred said aroused her curiosity."What does it look like when you offer a sacrifice?"Fred knew he could not speak of this matter. Sure enough, Marciella felt a little downcast after Fred said the words. She did not know why Fred would say such a thing. Suddenly, Fred felt bad about it.He coughed and said, "Don't think too much about it... I just want to find a clue. Maybe we could find a solution. Why does it never rain in your village?""Huh?"Marciella's eyes, which were still a little dejected, suddenly realized what was important and asked hurriedly, "Mr. Fred, are you saying that the reason why it never rains in our village is because someone is behind it?"Although Fred was unwilling to admit it, he could not help but nod. "Yes, this is exactly what you thought!""For real?!"Marciella felt hopeful again when she heard this. She said hastily, "The thing you asked about is pretty simple. You can just check out that place!""That place?"Fred turned around to see w
Marciella found herself nodding in agreement with Fred's harsh assessment. "You're spot on," she said. "That woman is nothing but vile!"Seeing Marciella's reaction, a rare smile crossed Fred's face as he nodded back. "Glad you see it my way," he said.What caught Fred off guard was the villagers' reaction. One by one, their faces turned ashen with despair.It seemed to them that nothing could be worse than the predicament they were facing. The absence of the witch spelled doom for the village—it was like their last shred of hope had vanished. They had all put their faith in her to charm the River God into blessing them with rain, which would have brought some peace to their troubled lives. However, now their chances seemed to have dried up just like their fields. Fred stood there, his face a mask of serenity amidst the chaos.In the moments that followed, the village chief was a picture of despair, his only option was to send everyone home while he racked his brain for a backup pl
"What?"Fred did not even have time to blink before the witch suddenly made a move.It was like a bomb went off.Kaboom!Then, she was dead!Fred dusted off his hands, even surprising himself with his lack of tolerance for the witch.Now, though, he had a real headache. He had planned to clear the air with the witch and lay out the past so everyone would know the full picture.He thought that might just turn things around.The situation changed when she vanished, and Fred's plans were completely derailed. Then again, changing the villagers' minds was not going to be a walk in the park anyway. They were pretty set in their ways, thanks to all the stuff they had been fed.As such, just talking it out might not cut it. Heck, it could even mess with history!With the witch out of the equation, Fred figured he might as well try a different tactic. Maybe if he took out the guy in the cloak and worked his own magic to bring some rain, it could save a lot of hassle. The more he thoug
"No way!"The witch bristled with defiance. She could not accept that she was no match for Fred.As she noticed Fred's focus was locked on her, a sly idea popped up in her mind.Before she could act on it, though, she found herself pinned against the wall by Fred in a flash...Her face contorted in disbelief. She was pinned so tightly that she could not even move!The witch was completely overpowered, her heart racing with panic.How could he be so much stronger than her?Fred, on the other hand, seemed unfazed."What's going through your head? You don't seriously think you can take me on, do you?" Fred asked, his voice laced with skepticism.The witch felt utterly trapped, as if at any second, Fred might just finish her off."Look, I messed up, okay? Can we not do this? I'm old, just a pile of brittle bones—I can't take this kind of rough treatment!" the witch pleaded with Fred, trying a new tactic to get through to him.Fred was not falling for it. He looked at her with a
"Heh, I caught on to you a while back, you know. You've been tailing me, and I'm pretty sure you're here for me. Plus, you don't have the look of someone from our village. That means you are an outsider, and I'm your target, right? Listen, man, we don't have any beef with each other, so why are you sticking your nose where it doesn't belong?"The witch had sensed the raw power rolling off Fred, and it was enough to send shivers down her spine!At that moment, she knew that challenging Fred was not going to be a walk in the park! If she had spotted him earlier in the forest, it would not have been good news for her. For starters, she had no clue how many tricks Fred had up his sleeve, and if he took her down, she and her buddy would be toast.However, the witch was not about to let Fred take her out without a fight! She racked her brain and finally settled on one strategy!She would try to sweet-talk him, hoping Fred would fall for her words just like everyone else, and fall into he
