Almost instantly, Stellar gritted his teeth and was about to step forward again. At this moment, Fred finally stepped forward and said lightly, "It’s alright, you are no match for him. Don’t force yourself!""My Lord..."Stellar could only nod his head weakly and said, "I have disappointed you, my Lord.""Hard work can overcome the lack of strength!"Fred smiled at Stellar in a relaxed manner, then set his eyes on the man in black. "Do you know who I am?""You? You're nothing but a dead man!"With a faint sneer, the eyes of the man in black showed nothing but contempt. Obviously, he did not take Fred seriously.After sneering, he aimed a punch at Fred just like how he dealt with Stellar.The man in black prepared to send Fred flying into the air like Stellar!Upon hearing the commotion, Roberto stood up excitedly and laughed loudly. "Punch him! Punch him hard! This little b*stard's death is not enough to quell my anger! It would be best if you can make him vomit blood with one
"Th... This... This..."Roberto, the eldest son of the Carlisles, who was originally looking gleeful and vicious, was stunned by what was happening before his eyes.‘Wh...What is this?‘Didn't you say that no one could match Mr. Hansen?‘How…How could he be beaten so easily by Fred, with…just a finger?’On the side, Wyatt’s eyes opened wide and his expression was extremely ugly.Just now, he told the excited Roberto that the winner would soon be determined.The outcome was indeed determined but it was not the expected outcome at all. It was as if he had received a giant slap across his face, which greatly embarrassed him.Stellar, who stood behind Fred, had a different expression.He was not at all surprised that Fred could easily win. What really surprised Stellar was that the man in black who Wyatt called Mr. Hansen was not actually from the Hansens!After all, it would be impossible for a member of the Hansens not to know Fred, a living legend, the Great One!However, if
Fred took the room card and tossed it to Stellar. Stellar immediately walked away. Not long after, he returned and said, "My lord, she’s there!"Fred nodded at Stellar. Roberto breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this.However, just when he thought everything was over, he began sweating profusely because Fred's eyes had already fallen on him again."How do you wish to die?" Fred asked indifferently. His tone and demeanor was so casual it was as if he was asking if Roberto had eaten.Roberto instantly felt like he was falling into hell!If someone else asked that question, Roberto would definitely have a comeback, and would even challenge the person to walk the talk.However, he did not have the slightest doubt about Fred.After all, he had seen it with his own eyes. Fred attacked the Jonses in Sunrise Island and killed Matias Albin of the Jonses!Plop!Without hesitation, Roberto immediately knelt on the ground and begged as he trembled. "President Hoffman, I was wrong! I sh
"Daniel Hansen! Are you f*cking kidding me?!!!"Outside Transcendalia Greenbank Airport…Wyatt got out of a car in a panic, then went straight to the waiting hall ahead without stopping. All the while, he was barking into the phone in his hand.This time, Roberto thought that Wyatt lured out Fred and asked the man in black to deal with Fred on purpose. However, the one leading Wyatt on the other side of the phone, was the true instigator—the son of the third Hansens elder, Daniel Hansen!At this moment, Daniel smiled on the other end of the phone when he heard Wyatt's angry roar. "Oh? Mr. Fraley, why are you so angry? Could it be that the person I gave you was not handy enough?""Handy my ars*! That guy is dead, you know? That Hoffman just used one trick, and the person you gave me is gone in seconds!"While Wyatt was talking, he could not help but recall the scene where Fred killed the man in black with one finger in the banquet hall on the top floor of East End Restaurant.The
Daniel smiled slightly after hearing that. "Since the old man is the Nation’s Elder, obviously it wouldn’t be easy! Well, Mr. Terra, you know that the old man has devoted himself to Somerland these years. He has to do everything himself—it must be very exhausting! Most importantly, I heard that Mr. Lyons has been eating less and dozing off more recently. His sleep quality isn’t great at all!"The man in the suit immediately raised his brows and said, "You mean, Mr.Lyons is likely...""Don't say it! Don't say it!"Daniel stretched out his index finger and made a silencing gesture. Then, he smiled. "Since things are over at Wyatt's side, I believe the West Valley area will start too!""Are you talking about where his sister is?" The man in the suit suddenly asked with a smile."Of course! The Great One is strong, but his weakness is obvious too. He is too empathic! Otherwise, how are we still standing here today?"Smugness burst out from Daniel's eyes as he spoke with a sneer. "The
Fred was going to West Valley?Stellar frowned in confusion when he heard this. Ever since Fred found out from Valerie that a lot of what happened before was the Hansens’ doing, Fred had been wary of them. However, because the Hansens had fled Somerland after betraying their nation, Fred was unable to grasp any actual evidence or leads against them. Through Wyatt, Fred finally managed to grab ahold of a lead on the Hansens for the first time. According to Stellar’s understanding of Fred, the younger man should be heading toward Capital City immediately. After all, the Hansens were obviously plotting something in Captial City, and the Terras, another warlord gentry, were definitely in on the plot too. It did not make sense that Fred would let them off so easily. Yet, Fred had decided to head to West Valley instead.Was this not playing right into the Hansens’ hand?Immediately, Stellar tried to persuade Fred, “But Great One…” “If you had to compare the Hansens with an an
There were five special families living in West Valley. Specifically, five major military families.More accurately, these five families had stopped being related to the military more than a decade ago.However, because these five families once had chiefs in the military, their names still invoked reverence nowadays. Today was Jacque’s birthday. He was the head of the Chesterfields, one of the five major military families.However, because of the special identities of these five families, the Chesterfields did not make a big deal about this celebration and merely invited close friends to gather and celebrate. The banquet had yet to begin when Kaeden, Jacque’s oldest son, walked out of the hall. Then, he watched as a beautiful lady pulled on her clothes and walked away. Beside him stood his subordinate, who smiled flatteringly. “Mr. Kaeden, are you satisfied with what I’ve prepared for you?” “Haha! Not bad, not bad!” Kaeden pulled on his sleeping robe and leaned against t
“Who the f*ck are you?!”This man barged into his room to threaten him. As the first heir to the Chesterfields, Kaeden snorted at the blatant display of disrespect.Kaeden did not think much of it when he heard the hostility in Fred’s voice. For as one of the five major military families in West Valley, the Chesterfields were not only revered but also used to dominating over everyone else. Even though Fred had barged into his house to threaten him, Kaeden merely took it as Fred having a death wish.Beside Kaeden, his subordinate stared at Fred. After a long while, the subordinate suddenly exclaimed, “Mr. Kaeden, I-I think I know who he is!”“Oh? You do?” Kaeden asked curiously, “Who is he?” “I think… No, I’m certain! He’s the boss behind Major Entertainment Company, the chairman of Fantastic Group, Fred Hoffman!” the subordinate said with certainty. “Fred Hoffman? The chairman of Fantastic Group?”Kaeden smiled. “I see. I heard that the two beauties, Wanda and Opal, are cl
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
