chapter 951-1000


    Chapter 951


    The old-aged doctor was startled at the amount. “Sir, how can I address you? I know you’re a good man,


    but 30 thousand is too much!”


    “Oh, not at all, not at all! I’ll need to trouble you to look after the store today! And my name is jackie


    White!”


    jackie chuckled and then looked at his lovely wife who was standing beside him. “I’ll leave with my wife


    first.” He then added.


    “Alright, Mr. White. I’m Terrance Chaffry, just call me Terry.”


    Terrance chortled warmly and sent the two off at the entrance.


    “ jackie, I know you’re trying to help, but you’re too generous, don’t you think so?”


    When they got out from the apothecary and on their way back home, Selena could not hold back but


    tease jackie. “You’re too generous that you scare the old doctor!”


    “It’s okay. Terry and his family don’t seem to be doing well. And it’s obviously not easy to survive in


    Swallow City. After all, to own a house in Swallow City is challenging for ordinary people and it’s indeed


    burdensome. Terry is a kind man; he works just to lessen the burden on his son’s shoulders.”


    The corners of jackie’s mouth faintly curled upward. “Sigh! Parents will always worry about their


    children!” jackie whispered with emotions.


    “You’re right. We’re notcking any money anyway, at the same time, we can help people! Besides, once


    we make a name for your medical skills here, I believe that all those rich people wille to us and by


    that time we’ll earn back all the losses!”


    Selena smiled at jackie. jackie could definitely be called a genius doctor with his outstanding medical


    skills. And with such skill, jackie could make as much money as he wanted, unless he had no desire to


    do so.


    The couple soon went back to their home. At this time, Caleb arrived at his home as well but with a


    severe nosebleed.


    Initially, Caleb thought that with the aid from Peace, getting Selena would be a piece of cake. However,


    little did he expect to get bruises on his face in the end; he did not even get to touch a single strand of


    Selena’s hair!


    Never mind the bruises, now that he finally gets to rest on his bed in a luxurious vi he bought for


    himself, he was worried sick about what would happen next.


    He knew his second uncle’s character very well. He was a three-star king of war. How could he ept


    the fact that he was beaten up badly and had his finger cut off; he certainly would not let that matter go.


    His second uncle—Hunter Moore—was someone with little fame. He was friends with several kings of


    war who were more powerful than he was. Thest time he met his uncle in the backyard, he was


    drinking with a five-star king of war!


    What if his second uncle brought a few elite fighters to where jackie and Selena live and killed the two


    beauties—Selena and Lana, then he would not be able to taste the two beauties anymore! Caleb was


    feeling unfair that he was beaten up twice but did not even have the chance to touch those women once.


    “No, no, no. I have to go find my second uncle tomorrow. But I’ll rest up a bit today!”


    Caleb mumbled to himself after thinking about the matter. Then he took a few painkillers to ease his pain


    so that he could rest up and heal faster.


    Perhaps, it was because he had failed twice in a row and he was uncontented.


    Moreover, he knew very well in his heart that based on Young Master Chaffman’s temperament, he


    would definitely not let the matter go. After all, the Chaffman family was a prominent family and has quite


    a few elite fighters.


    …


    At this time, Hunter and five other kings of war were drinking and chatting in a hotel bar.


    These five kings of war, in addition to the two kings of war that were with him that day, there were three


    other kings of war—two four-star kings of war and a five-star king of war!


    “Sir Moore, what happened to your hand?”


    One of the kings of war noticed Hunter’s missing finger and asked in surprise.


    “I met a female fighter, and I don’t know if she has five-star or four-starbat prowess. She is quite


    strong, and I could not defeat her!”


    Hunter bellowed angrily, with his fists and teeth both gritted tightly.


    Chapter 952


    “Are you f*cking kidding me? Sir Moore, you’re not her opponent?”


    A four-star king of war had a surprised look stered on his face. “There’re many elite fighters here in


    the Swallow City, but Sir Moore is not somemoner that anyone could just defeat! What’s more, the


    other party is a woman! How can it be?”


    Hunter bobbed his head in agreement. “I didn’t expect that the other party would be this powerful. The


    other day, they humiliated my nephew,pelling him to kneel under the hot sun for a long time. They


    beat him and his bodyguards up too! So I went over in hope to help my nephew out, but I seriously didn’t


    expect that woman to be this strong and to defeat me in the end!”


    After hearing this new piece of information, three kings of war exchanged nces to convey certain


    messages between them. They were not stupid at all; they knew and understood Hunter’s and his


    nephew’s characters inside out. Hence they naturally knew who was at fault.


    After analyzing the situation, the three assumed that the nephew was probably head over heels for the


    other party’s beauty and wanted to own her which lead to such an incident.


    Moreover, Hunter was very protective of his nephew. Everyone knew that. Just that the thought of Hunter


    getting defeated and have one finger chopped off did not cross their minds. Hunter had actually gone to


    them for help this time!


    “Sir Moore, you’re the only one who has fought with the other party, so you naturally know how good


    theirbat power is!”


    The five-star king of war chimed in with a rhetorical question. He gave a faint smile.


    “Hmmm, I guess the woman should be on par with a four-star king of war! But it doesn’t matter whether


    she isparable to a four-star or a five-star, if we all join forces and attack them together, it shouldn’t


    be any problem!”


    Hunter nodded and raised his arm with a ss of beer in his hand. “My dear brothers, as you know, I,


    Hunter Moore, rarely ask favors from others. But this time, it seriously affected my pride and ego as a


    king of war! So you guys must give me a hand!”


    “Don’t worry. We’re brothers and we have fought together on the battlefield. So we’ll definitely help you!”


    For the sake of reputation and image, the five-star king of war was somewhat forced to nod his head and


    agree to Hunter’s favor.


    Since a five-star king of war had promised to avenge Hunter, the other two four-star king of war naturally


    had their tongue-tied but proceeded to smile and nod to show agreement. After all, what Hunter said was


    true, he rarely asked for favors from others. For a prideful king of war to open his mouth and beg for


    help, it was not easy.

    The group soon bottomed up couples of beers.


    “Alright. I’ll treat everyone to a karaoke night! Also, I’ve sent my men to scout where the other party lives.


    Tomorrow at nine o’clock sharp, we’ll gather together at the Dragon Phoenix Skyscraper, then go over to


    their house and end them!”


    Hunter shot up from his chair and yelled his lungs out, with his fist clenched tightly.


    “Yes!”


    All kings of war stood up and echoed with Hunter. They possessed a strong aura that nobody else would


    be able to emit.


    The next morning, Caleb woke up and found that his soreness and wounds had recovered quite a bit. He


    then immediately brought a few bodyguards and drove to his second uncle’s house.


    Soon, he arrived at his second uncle’s vi.


    “Mr. Wace, is my uncle inside?”


    Caleb quickly approached Mr.Wace—who was the butler of Hunter’s residence—and inquired about


    his uncle’s whereabouts with a smile on his face.


    “Umm. He’s already gone out; I think about ten or twenty minutes ago!”


    “I think he went out with a few kings of war, to somewhere I’m not too sure. Oh right! Yesterday he met


    with the kings of war and had a few drinks together!” Mr. Wace added as he recalled.


    “Oh sh*t!”


    Caleb cursed and pped his thighs right after hearing the news. He woke up slightlyter than usual


    this morning, it must be due to his injuries.


    He did not expect his uncle to act so fast that he had sought help from other kings of war and went


    straight to find jackie and Selena.


    He initially thought that he could rest up a bit ande over this morning to inform Hunter that jackie


    had offended the Chaffman family, and perhaps they could wait patiently for the Chaffmans to make a


    move. When shepherds quarrel, the wolf has a winning game; they could be the wolf that benefits from


    the situation.


    At least, this way, he would have the chance to taste those two beauties.


    After all, he knew Young Master Chaffman’s character well. If Peace wanted to kill the women, he would


    have had fun nights with them before killing them!


    On the other hand, ording to his second uncle’s temperament, he would not care about fun nights nor


    fooling around. They would go straight for the other parties’ heads; after all, they were people who


    thought they were righteous and just. It was impossible for them to do such dirty deeds.


    Therefore, if the second uncle and the kings of war were to behead the other party, then he would lose


    the chance to…


    Chapter 953


    “Dammit! I was toote! Few minuteste!”


    Caleb let out a defeated sigh and he was rendered speechless.


    “Young Master Quinton, what do you mean by you’re toote?”


    Mr. Wace was confused at Caleb’s utterance, notprehending what Caleb meant by that.


    “It has nothing to do with you!” Caleb cast Mr. Wace a re and blurted.


    After thest syble of his word dropped, Caleb got into his car and was ready to drive to jackie’s


    residence to witness the other party’s fallen bodies.


    This time his second uncle was not alone; he brought several kings of war with him. Thesebined


    forces were nothing but splendidly formidable and frightening. Hence, Caleb was convinced that today


    would be the other party’sst day on this earth.


    A total of six kings of war gathered in front of jackie’s residence a few minutes ago.


    “Isn’t this area new? And these vis as well?”


    One of the kings of war furrowed while trying to peep into the enclosed vis.


    “That’s right. But I didn’t know that there is a person who is as strong as a four-star king of war living


    here!”


    Another king of war chimed in and gave his two cents.


    The group stood before the entrance of jackie’s residence, however, they were stopped by two


    bodyguards at the entrance.


    “Gentlemen, may I know your purpose here?”


    One of the bodyguards stepped forward and inquired about the group’s identities.


    These bodyguards followed King of War Skyler Celestino to the Swallow City. They were his disciples


    and each of them waspetent and has strongbat prowess.


    “We don’t want to kill innocent people! You can either move aside and let us in or hand over three of


    them to us! A woman wearing a mask, a man and another beautiful woman! The man is called jackie and


    the beautiful woman is called Selena!”


    King of War—Hunter Moore—raised his head slightly as hemanded in a cold and disdain voice.


    “Hand them over?”


    A few vertical lines formed between the bodyguard’s brows. It was obvious that this group of six was not


    here for a friendly matter. “May I know what’s the purpose of you meeting our master?” One of the


    bodyguards asked.


    “Humph! What’s the purpose? Of course, it’s to grant them their death wish!”


    Hunter snorted coldly and spitted his thoughts. “Hand them over to us now! All of us here are kings of


    war, you two are certainly not our opponents and we don’t want to kill weaklings! Their lives are what we


    came for!”


    The bodyguard who blocked their way into the residence had a confused look on. “Sir, if you want to kill


    the three of them, I’m afraid that it’s an impossible task. Or at least you should first defeat our captain of


    bodyguards!”


    “The captain of bodyguards? Get him here then! Then I’ll see if he can defeat all of us!”


    Hunter leered frostily.


    “Alright, I’ll get him over!”


    One of them quickly ran off into the area.


    At this time, Skyler was enjoying his tea leisurely in the courtyard. However, he was not used to rxing;


    he felt odd having so much free time recently, and eventually, he got bored.


    At that very moment, his disciple ran to him, articted huffingly. “Master, there’re a few people who


    called themselves kings of war, yelling to kill Master and Mistress White and Goddess of War!”


    “What a joke!”


    Skyler hollered, then he stood up from his chair, cracking his fingers. “Let’s go and meet them!”


    Chapter 954


    “Master, there’s six of them and I can recognize one of them, but the other five, I have no idea who they


    are! If you go out and fight them, wouldn’t this be a bad idea?”


    The bodyguard cast a wan smile and doubted Skyler’s decision.


    “You know one of them? Hmmm. Then do I know them?”


    Skyler listened attentively to his disciple and questioned with a frown.


    “Oh, you definitely know this person! He used to be your subordinate. But he certainly doesn’t know me!”


    The bodyguard then continued with a mixture of feelings. “It’s Sir Miles Stone, you do remember, don’t


    you? He was not only your subordinate, you’ve even saved his life before!”


    “Ah! It’s him!”


    As soon as Skyler heard of the name, he was excited and could not wait to meet this good old friend.


    However, after striding for a few steps, he stopped. He suddenly remembered that the other party was


    not here to hang out but to look for trouble. If he were to go out like this, the other party would be


    embarrassed in front of the other kings of war.


    After giving some thought to the matter, he asked his disciple again, “The one who yelled for jackie’s


    head was not him, right? Miles is a nice and kind-hearted guy, he’d never offend jackie, Selena, and


    Lana. It’s ridiculous!”


    “The one who yelled was not him; it’s a guy with a missing finger. Probably this person was beaten up by


    the Goddess of War before, and that’s why he went to Sir Stone for help!”


    The bodyguard breathed out a wan smile. He was certainly confused about the whole situation, after all,


    he and the other disciples were only here as bodyguards because they followed Master Skyler.


    Skyler was a dignified and honorable man with a high social position. He was a real eight-star king of war


    and hisbat prowess was said to be on par with some of the nine-star kings of war!


    No one would ever believe that such a strong person would be willing to follow jackie and serve as his


    bodyguard.


    The disciples knew that jackie was the personal doctor of the Nine Great Gods of War. However, since


    jackie was only a doctor; the bodyguard did not think that Master Skyler should behave submissively


    toward jackie.


    Only when they arrived and settled down in Swallow City that Master Skyler revealed the shocking news


    to them—that jackie was not at all the personal doctor of the Nine Great Gods of War, but he was the


    Supreme Warrior, who was also the master of Nine Great Gods of War!


    Besides, jackie’s attainments in medical skills and knowledge were way beyond Ethan Hays’; that Ethan


    would never be on par with jackie in the medical area.


    Nevertheless, Master Skyler had made them keep this a secret. Unless the Supreme Warrior revealed


    his identity himself, otherwise, nobody should say anything about his identity.


    Therefore, when the bodyguard watched the king of war screaming and yelling to kill jackie, he felt funny


    and at the same time, pathetic for the other party. To seek trouble with jackie, would not this be digging a


    grave for oneself?


    If they had pissed off the Supreme Warrior, with a single swing of jackie’s arm, all of them would be lying


    on the ground, lifeless.


    “Hmmm. If I were to go out and teach them a lesson, Miles would lose his image and reputation. He’d be


    embarrassed beyond measure. How about this, you bring him in.”


    Skyler leisurely plopped his butt onto the seat again after he analyzed the situation thoroughly and


    waited casually in the courtyard, enjoying good tea.


    “Where’s your so-called captain of bodyguards? Where is he?”


    Hunter cursed loudly after seeing that the bodyguard came out alone, without anyone next to him. Hunter


    felt a flicker of irritation.


    The bodyguard smiled and then only bowed before the group of kings of war. “Our Captain said that he


    wanted to meet Sir Stone in private, and he believed that after Sir Stone has met him, Sir Stone will


    change his mind!”


    “He’s only a captain of bodyguards, why would Sir Stone change his mind because of him! What a joke!”


    A one-star king of war—who was close to Hunter—sped his hand in front of his chest and sneered


    sarcastically.


    “That’s right, who does he think he is? Tell him to get out here himself. Don’t tell me he’s a pussy and is


    afraid of us, that’s why he is hiding inside like a scaredy-cat?


    Another four-star king of war echoed andughed. It was ridiculous at the same time funny in his point of


    view.


    Chapter 955


    For whoever who possessedbat powerparable to a king of war was certainly not going to


    volunteer to be a bodyguard. So the other party was obviously pretending to be a king of war, but in


    reality, he was probably afraid, at the same time, did not want to admit weakness due to his image. Thus,


    he had asked Miles Stone to go in, so that he could pay Miles off and Miles would let him off the hook.


    “I’m a five-star king of war, and you’re making me go in to meet him? Are you sure?”


    Miles snorted frostily, his face was releasing an aura of resentment.


    “Hurry up and ask your Captain toe out, or else I’ll end your life here!”


    Hunter got a little impatient. He stepped forward, choked the bodyguard, and lifted him up high in mid-air.


    Hunter thought that the bodyguard would wet his pants out of fear. Nheless, the other party did not


    even show a hint of fear, but rather he shot Hunter a deadly stare. “If you want to kill, then kill. Do you


    think I’m afraid of death? But I need to tell you that, if you kill me right here, all of you will regret itter,


    and all of you will have topensate me with your lives!”


    “Hunter, don’t kill him!”


    The boldness of the bodyguard suddenly woke Miles up, perhaps, it was not that simple.


    After ordering Hunter not to kill the bodyguard, Miles said to the bodyguard, “Lead me to your Captain. If


    he is just a useless prawn, I’ll kill him on the spot. I hate it when people lie to me!”


    Only then did Hunter put the bodyguard down.


    “Let’s go in!”


    The bodyguard cast another fierce re at Hunter, then only he brought Miles into the residential area.


    After a few minutes, Miles and the bodyguard arrived at the courtyard, under a big tree. They met with a


    man who was enjoying the breeze and drinking tea there. He was about 40 or 50 years old.


    When Hunter could finally see the other party clearly, he instantly recognized him. Miles sucked in a


    breath of shock and stumbled a few steps forward. He rubbed his eyes repeatedly to clear his vision as


    though the scene before him was blurry. “Oh my freaking God, Sir Celestino, is that you? It’s you, right?


    Why are you here?”


    Skyler looked at the other party andmanded with a strong aura, “Come, sit down and talk. Tell me,


    what brings you here? And why did you want to find fault with our Master?”


    “No way! Sir Celestino, you’re an eight-star king of war! Why are you here? Why have you be the


    captain of bodyguards? Am I seeing this correctly? Aren’t you supposed to be in Eastfield right now?”


    Miles sat down beside Skyler. Shock and confusion clouded his thoughts. Not only did Skyler be a


    bodyguard, but he called the person behind him, his Master. Did that mean the person behind him was


    even more powerful than Skyler? Or was he some sort of high-status person? Otherwise, how could it be


    possible for an eight-star king of war like Skyler to call this person Master?


    “you don’t have to squeeze your brain juice thinking about this. We arrived a few days ago, and we n


    to go around the city for some sightseeing and fun. Did I exin myself clearly?”


    Skylerughed out loud and then added, “So…what now? Do you still want to proceed with your n to


    kill my master? Our Master’s position and identity is not something you could ever imagine nor you could


    ever offend. If you want to take his life, first you’ll have to possess the ability to kill me first!”


    “Oh, no, no, no! Brother Skyler, how could I ever be stronger than you? Besides, I was your subordinate


    and you even saved my life before! How could I possibly have the guts to fight you? I wouldn’t darey a


    finger on you! You’re my savior, I could never fight you!”


    Miles was in aplete state of panic. He waved both his head and hand to strengthen his statements.


    “no more fighting or killing my Master then?”


    Skyler chortled at Miles’s gesture and asked.


    “No more fighting, no more killing your Master! I came here today because Hunter and I are pretty close,


    that’s why I thought of helping him out. In fact, that nephew of his is not a dignified man in the first ce.


    We all know that!”


    Miles waved his hands again and then added, “I’ll go out in a moment and ask them to leave.”


    “Good then. It looks like I don’t have to do anything!”


    Skyler gave a warm smile and stretched his back. “Actually, it’s been a long time since Ist fought. I’m


    really not used to it anymore. Look, my hands are shaking because I’ve not been fighting!”


    Chapter 956


    “Don’t, please don’t, Sir Celestino! Your hands must not shake, if they do, we’ll be in trouble!”


    Miles did not know whether to cry orugh at the situation. Then he was suddenly overwhelmed with


    emotion. “Sir, I really didn’t expect to see you here. Okay! It’s set now, I’lle here again tomorrow!”


    “You’reing here again tomorrow?”


    Skyler smiled faintly.


    Miles burst out inughter. “I’lle over to visit you tomorrow. Let’s have some drinks and talk. I


    couldn’t do it today, because there are a few people waiting for me outside!”


    “I see. But you can’t leave right now! I’ve poured you a cup of tea, you have to at least finish it before you


    leave!”


    Miles was one of his close subordinates. They have both experienced life and death moments on the


    battlefield. Hence, Skyler was in a good mood after meeting Miles.


    “Alright then!”


    Miles chatted with Skyler for a while, then bottomed up the tea in front of him, only then did he walk


    toward the gate by himself.


    “Why isn’t Sir Stone back yet?”


    Hunter and the others who were waiting outside were growing more and more impatient. Miles had been


    inside for almost ten minutes, which made the others feel strange.


    “It can’t be that something happened, right?”


    The four-star king of war guessed with his brows ceasing together.


    “This is bad! They know we’re here and the toughest opponent is Sir Stone. So, they’ve requested him to


    go inside alone to siege and assassinate him! They have the number; they might be able to kill him! In


    this case, our overall strength is weakened and we might be in trouble!” The other four-star king of war


    chimed in.


    Hunter’s face turned unsightly at the analysis. If Sir Stone was killed, their overallbat power would


    be weakened instantly.


    “Let’s go! Let’s go inside and help Sir Stone. We can’t let them weaken our force! Motherf*cker! They’re


    cunning foxes!”


    The one-star king of war waved his hand and yelled. But, inwardly he was frightened to death.


    At this time, a figure resembling Miles slowly appeared within their sight. The corners of Miles’s mouth


    curled upward as he walked toward the group.


    “He’s here! Sir Stone is here!”


    Everyone let out a huge sigh of relief when they learned that Miles was safe and sound. After all, he was


    the only five-star king of war here, and the only one who could possibly defeat the woman with the mask


    —who was said to have thebat power of a five-star king of war. Therefore, Miles yed a vital role


    in the group; if it were not for him, the remaining kings of war would note along today!


    “Sir Stone, what took you so long? Why did the so-called captain call you over? Don’t tell me he’s trying


    to pay you some money to cease fire?”


    Hunter was so impatient that he instantly went up to Miles and questioned him.


    “How is it possible? Sir Stone is not someone whocks money. How much would the other party pay Sir


    Stone in order to cease fire?”


    One of the four-star kings of war sneered sarcastically at Hunter’s guess.


    “Guys, leave the ce with me, now!” Miles looked at everyone and thenmanded.


    Miles then brought the rest to a corner outside the vi and said to them with a gloomy and dull tone. “Sir


    Moore, I think it’s better for us to let this matter go. Let’s stop here!”


    “Miles Stone, what do you mean by ‘stop here’? We all agreed to this n before, didn’t we? How could


    you change your mind after going in? Aren’t you a coward?”


    Hunter’s face darkened—he was extremely upset at Miles’s suggestion. He could not imagine why Miles


    refused to help him after seeing the so-called Captain.


    Chapter 957


    “Umm. The mysterious person inside is not someone we can afford to offend. If we go ording to the


    n, it’s equivalent to digging graves for ourselves!”


    Miles chuckled, loosening up the tensed atmosphere. “Do you know who the captain of bodyguards is?


    He’s an eight-star king of war, Skyer Celestino! My former boss on the battlefield, moreover he’d saved


    my life before! If we were to fight against him, we’d die within a few minutes!”


    “What the f*ck? An eight-star king of war?”


    One of the four-star kings of war was bewildered at the news. He was so frightened that he held his


    breath until he almost passed out. “Sir Stone, this is not a joke, right? The eight-star king of war, Skyler


    Celestino, is actually in there, serving as the captain of bodyguards?” The four-star king of war could


    barely squeeze out a few words.


    “Impossible! How is that possible?”


    Hunter had his face turned unsightly. If that was the case, his n for revenge had to be flushed down


    into the drain.


    Unless…unless he knew any nine-star king of war, or a God of…


    “Why would I lie to you guys?”


    Miles shot Hunter an impatient re then added, “Well, Sir Moore, let’s head back. Now you understand


    why we can’t afford to offend the people in there. Skyler is an eight-star king of war, and he is willing to


    serve this person behind as a bodyguard. This means that the identity of this person is not that simple,


    do you understand?”


    Hunter nodded his head. Although his heart was upset about losing his finger and his n was in vain,


    he was somewhat thankful for Miles.


    Fortunately, he and the others did not go ahead with the n and charged into the residence. Otherwise,


    they would not be able toe out alive.


    “My apologies for troubling you guys. Let’s find a nice ce and have a cup of tea. Then we’ll have lunch


    together at noon, couples of wines, and justze around!”


    Hunter poured out his thoughts and quickly left the residential area with the rest.


    Not long after Hunter and the group left the scene, an opulent sports car arrived and parked not too far


    away from jackie’s house.


    Caleb Quinton was inside the sportscar. He looked at the bodyguards at the gate from afar; he could not


    help but frown. If the vicious fight had started, it was impossible for these bodyguards to stay alive,


    standing there like nothing happened.


    “Strange, hmmm. Could it be that the second uncle and the others have yet to arrive?”


    Caleb’s brows knitted and his heart was filled with doubts and questions.


    He wandered around the entrance for a while, trying to peep into the residence. There were no signs of


    any intense and ferocious fighting. Caleb breathed out a huge sigh of relief; he could finally rest up a bit.


    It looked like his second uncle has yet toe over with the others to look for trouble. Perhaps tomorrow


    or the day after tomorrow.


    Suddenly, a loud ring came out from Caleb’s pocket—his cell phone was ringing.


    Caleb’s mood brightened once he saw the name on his phone, and he immediately answered the call. It


    was Peace Chaffman.


    “Damn, Young Master Quinton, where the heck does the man and the woman live? The bodyguards that


    I brought along yesterday were not strong at all. Besides, you’ve said that your second uncle is a three-


    star king of war and he can’t even defeat the woman with a mask, right?”


    The thick voice of Young Master Chaffman came out from the phone as soon as Caleb answered the


    call. “Humph! This time I’ve asked for two professional fighters; both are six-star kings of war! The man


    and the woman would not stand a chance against them, and this includes the woman in the mask! I’ll


    surely capture her alive!”


    “You’re not kidding, right? That’s amazing!”


    Such great news bloomed the hope inside Caleb. As long as his second uncle and the others had not


    gone to revenge, he still had a chance to taste the two beauties.


    The thought of spending wonderful nights with the beauties made Caleb’s adam’s apple jump. “Young


    Master Chaffman, you didn’t forget our deal, did you?”


    Chapter 958


    “don’t worry, Young Master Quinton. Of course, I remember our deal!”


    Over the phone, Peace’s voice rang out again, “But we can’t go along with our original n!”


    Caleb’s expression darkened when he heard that. Was that man going to change his mind so quickly?


    Still, he was well aware that he could not do anything even if Peace abruptly changed his ns. After all,


    the Chaffman family was too strong. He would not have gone to them in the first ce otherwise.


    “there was only one woman before, that’s why we agreed upon taking turns. But it’s different now—there


    are two women. I’ve thought about it already. Give me the beautifuldy from yesterday, and you can


    have that woman in the mask. How about that?”


    Peace quickly replied the next second, chuckling.


    When he heard this, Caleb’s heart leaped in delight. Peace had probably never seen the woman in the


    mask before, so he assumed that she would not match the demure beauty from yesterday in terms of


    looks.


    In reality, the woman in the mask was just as attractive as the woman from yesterday.


    “All right then. You’d better keep your word, Young Master Chaffman. No regrets!”


    Caleb immediately agrees to the proposition and instantly emphasized the point in fear that the other


    man would retract his statement.


    “Of course! Quickly send me the location. We won’t need many men this time. These two fighters should


    be enough!”


    Young Master Chaffman grinned confidently. After all, aside from a second-ss aristocratic family like


    the Chaffman family, not just anyone could hire two fighters who were as good as six or seven-star Kings


    of War.


    Soon enough, Caleb shared his location.


    Two cars quickly drove over and parked not too far away from him.


    Caleb got down from his car when he saw Peace arriving. Then he helped the rotund man open the car


    door in a fit of excitement.


    “So it’s here. Seems like these people aren’t too shabby. This vi is worth quite a sum!”


    Young Master Chaffman could not help but eximed as he studied the vi before him.


    “Let’s go. Clear the way!”


    Young Master Chaffman waved a hand and walked straight in with his men.


    Two hulking men nked his sides. They were the few of the stronger fighters among the Chaffman


    family’s bodyguards.


    Meanwhile, although the other bodyguards before them were not as skilled, they were good fighters


    nheless.


    “What are you doing?”


    The two bodyguards guarding the entrance stepped forward and asked as they saw a band of people


    approaching them.


    “Hmph. What are we doing? We’re here to see someone!”


    A few of the Chaffman family’s bodyguards attacked straightaway.


    The Chaffman family’s bodyguards were in a scuffle with the two bodyguards at the entrance. No one


    expected that therger group would be no match for the two, and they were all seriously injured.


    The two bodyguards also took a few blows, but they were not as gravely injured as their opponents.


    “F*ck. These bodyguards are pretty strong!”


    The man on Peace’s left took two steps forward after observing the situation. He clenched both fists and


    rushed toward the two men before him.


    The man was huge, but he moved at a blinding speed. Before the two bodyguards knew it, he was


    already before them.


    The two bodyguards were shocked when they saw this. They realized that the man before them was a


    far stronger fighter than the rabble from before.


    Chapter 959


    They clenched their teeth and threw all of their strength into fighting him.


    A loud noise resounded. The huge man stood rooted in his spot, unmoving, yet the two bodyguards have


    been sent flying backward.


    The two clinched their arms. The arms they had used to attack had broken bones now.


    “Not bad. But you unwittingly walked into a death trap by running into these two fighters of mine!”


    Peace gave a cold smile, radiating an arrogant aura.


    “Kill–kill them!”


    Caleb cried out from the side. He had been beaten twice, and now he could finally see retribution falling


    upon his enemy.


    “Die!”


    The huge man’s lips curled into a frosty smile. He pulled out a sword from behind his back.


    He swung the sword ferociously. A thin, pressurized air de suddenly flew straight toward the two


    bodyguards on the ground.


    Whoosh!


    Yet another air de sliced forward just as the two bodyguards were about to be killed, stopping the


    huge man’s air de.


    “Who?”


    The huge man, Caleb, and the others looked toward the original direction of the air de.


    “Who are you?”


    Skyler was absolutely livid. He had just managed to chase Miles and his men off just moments ago, and


    he never thought that another group of fighters woulde around less than half an hourter.


    Furthermore, these fighters were very skilled.


    Skyler immediately suspected that these people had been hired by Miles. After all, Miles did notsh out


    to save his reputation just now, and that was the only reason why he had managed to walk away alive.


    After he left, he probably hired people that no one would recognize.


    Still, he quickly shook his head and dismissed the notion.


    After all, the fighters here were far stronger than Miles. They were not as skilled as eight or nine-star


    Kings of War. If Miles had been behind this, he would be sending them to their graves.


    “What’s going on? Young Master Chaffman, there are more fighters in there. And it seems like this one is


    almost as strong as I am!”


    The huge man was taken aback at the sight of his attack being blocked so easily.


    Judging from the other man’s pressurized wind de, it seemed that it was more solid—more powerful


    than his own air de.


    “Young Master Quinton, why are there more fighters here? Didn’t you say that the masked woman was


    the strongest of them all?”


    Peace gulped, just as shocked as everyone was.


    “I–I didn’t know that there was a fighter like this here!”


    Caleb was speechless too. “But you have more men than him, Young Master Chaffman,” he said. “It


    shouldn’t be a problem!”


    “Young Master Quinton and Young Master Chaffman?”


    Skyler shed a cold smile as he heard their conversation. “Who cares what young masters you are?


    You dared to barge your way in here and injure my disciples. Both of you will die right here!”


    Chapter 960


    “What a mouth you have. Listen here, bud, I’m Peace Chaffman, a young master of a second-ss


    aristocratic family. Are you kidding me? You dare to offend the Chaffman family?”


    Peace immediately burst intoughter when he heard that. “Besides, I don’t believe that you have the


    ability to defeat the two fighters I have here!”


    “A second-ss aristocratic family?”


    Even Skyler was stunned by his words.


    After all, jackie and the others had just arrived here. Furthermore, jackie had dered that he had other


    matters to attend to. He did not wish to cause trouble here in Swallow city.


    If he truly killed this young master from a second-ss aristocratic family, he would be blowing the issue


    up. The master of the Chaffman family and their other fighters would definitely attempt to avenge their


    young master.


    He did not fear the Chaffman family, but they most certainly had plenty of men. If he destroyed the entire


    Chaffman family, jackie, Selena, and the others would soon be attracting the attention of other powerful


    families.


    When he thought about it, Skyler felt that he should refrain from killing Young Master Chaffman and


    Young Master Quinton for now. Besides, jackie and Lana were not here. What if they med him for


    being too hasty if he killed them?


    “Never mind. Don’t kill the two young masters, but get the rest. Let’s teach them a good lesson. We can’t


    let them walk off without letting them see some blood being shed!”


    Skyler quickly decided.


    When Peace had seen Skyler contemting, he had thought that the other man was truly afraid.


    He gave a cold smile. “What now? You’re scared because you know that I’m a young master of a


    second-ss aristocratic family, eh? Since you’re so scared, just bring the two beautiful women and


    jackie here. Otherwise, you’ll be meeting your end here!”


    Caleb seemed to have thought of something, and he said to Skyler, “It looks like you’re a pretty good


    fighter. Just step aside or bring your master out—you don’t have to fight for him any longer. I’ll pay you a


    billion dors per year and make you an elder in the Quinton family!”


    “Hmph. I don’t care for it!”


    Skyler could not be bothered to talk anymore. He immediately lunged forward and attacked the two


    strong men before him.


    “Whoosh!”


    Pressurized air des quickly shed, creating terrible shing noises.


    Fiona and the others heard it and rushed out of the vi.


    “What’s going on? Why is there a fight?”


    Fiona was shocked when she saw the scene unfolding before her from a distance, her face went white.


    She was anxious.


    “Hey! Why are they fighting? Don’t tell me jackie provoked someone again?”


    Andrew spoke in an exasperated tone, “What a reckless man. He’s so stubborn and he always causes


    trouble. I really suspect that he’s stirred up another storm. Why would peoplee looking for us


    otherwise? We haven’t even spent two days here!”


    “Don’t jump to conclusions. They’re not here now either. Perhaps it’s because of Selena’s beauty. Look


    at that fatty there—one nce tells me that he’s up to no good!”


    Old Man Taylor defended jackie.


    While they talked, the fight grew fiercer. The two bodyguards from the Chaffman family, who were almost


    as strong as six-star kings of war, were quickly downed, blood pooling over their bodies.


    “No–no way.”


    Peace and Caleb exchanged a nce when they saw the two fighters on the ground. Horror crept into


    their gazes.


    “I’m telling you, these are powerful fighters from the Chaffman family…”


    Peace immediately tried to threaten Skyler when it looked like thetter was about to kill them.


    Unfortunately, he did not get a chance to finish his sentence when Skyler raised his sword and brought it


    down. The two powerful fighters were killed just like that.


    With a few shes of Skyler’s hands, the rest of the bodyguards fell down one by one, each of them with


    terror froze onto their expressions.


    Chapter 961 “Don’t–don’t kill us!”


    Caleb’s legs immediately crumpled beneath him when he realized that only he and Peace were left; he


    dropped onto his knees.


    “Please, let me go this once. I’m a young master of a second-ss aristocratic family. I won’t dare to do


    something like this again!”


    Peace had never seen a scenario like this before. His feet went cold, and he was so terrified that he wet


    his pants. Just like Caleb, his knees turned into jelly and he plopped onto the ground.


    At that moment, Skyler was absolutely terrifying to them. He had killed without batting an eysh. They


    had never seen such a terrifying scene before.


    “You injured two of my disciples. I killed all these men as punishment, so we’ll call it even. Get out of my


    sight!”


    Skyler cast a cold re at the two men who were on the ground. “I won’t let you off so easily if you dare


    to show your face here again!”


    “Don’t worry. We’ll nevere here again!”


    Caleb wiped away the cold sweat filming over his forehead. Then he pushed himself to stand upright.


    “We’ll never do it again!”


    Peace tried to stand up, but stumbled, and almost fell onto the ground. Caleb managed to help him up,


    then the two ambled out of the gates.


    “Trash!”


    Skyler spoke in an unsympathetic tone as he watched the two fellows, who had been scared out of their


    wits.


    “Mr. Celestino, what happened? Why did these mene looking for us?”


    After Andrew stepped forward, he asked in a polite manner.


    “I’m not too sure myself. Seems like they wanted us to hand Master jackie, Miss Selena, and Lana over!”


    Skyler shed a bitter smile. “That fatty was a young master from a second-ss aristocratic family. I had


    hoped that he would not pursue the matter any further, since I didn’t know if I should kill him without


    jackie’s direct orders. I was afraid that the issue would blow out of proportion!”


    “A second-ss aristocratic family. That’s trouble!”


    Old Man Taylor could not help but sighed after he heard that.


    “What happened to the two of them? Their hands are swollen!”


    Fiona looked at the two bodyguards on the ground. She did not know what to do.


    “Don’t worry. I’ll give jackie a call. He has a miracle medicine with him right now. Their arms are broken,


    but they’ll be as good as new in two or three days once they take jackie’s medicine!”


    Skyler smiled at everyone. Then he turned toward the rest of the bodyguards. “Take whatever valuables


    you can find from their bodies, then get rid of them,” he said. “Just take them to the outskirts of the city


    and burn them!”


    At that moment, jackie, Selena, and Lana were in their newly opened pharmacy.


    They have changed the signboard of the pharmacy. It now reads ‘Amity Apothecary’.


    Besides, jackie had sought out two female Chinese medicine practitioners to assist the old Chinese


    doctor.


    The two were pretty skilled doctors. They would probably be able to treat regr diseases even if he was


    not around. Along with the old Chinese doctor, they could run the show perfectly fine.


    “Your monthly wages wille up to 20 thousand dors. I assume that amount isn’t a problem?”


    jackie said, looking at the two before him.


    “20 thousand!”


    The two exchanged a nce, shocked. They had thought that 10 thousand was a pretty good sry


    already. They never thought that they would be paid this much over here. Their boss was too generous.


    Chapter 962 “What’s wrong? Is it too little?”


    jackie’s lips curled into a bitter smile as he spoke to the two young women before him.


    “No, no. It’s more than enough. I never thought that we’d be paid so much!”


    The two quickly waved their hands and replied.


    At this moment, an old man was seen at the entrance. He was shabbily dressed, and he seemed like a


    beggar. He scanned the interior of the pharmacy, hesitation in his eyes.


    jackie looked at the old man, sensing that he was in a pickle. He stepped forward and asked, “Are you


    looking for something, sir?”


    The old man furrowed his brows. He remained silent for a few seconds before finally speaking, “Young


    man, Chi–chinese medicine is a lot cheaper than Western medicine, right?”


    jackie suddenly understood everything. The old man wanted treatment, but he was probably worried that


    he did not have enough money to foot the medical bills.


    He gave a wan smile. “That’s right. Chinese medicine is a lot cheaper than going to big hospitals. But not


    many people seek our treatment, simply because there aren’t many who believe in our treatment.”


    Here, jackie carefully studied the old man. “But you seem pretty healthy, sir. You’re not ill, are you?”


    The old man took out a stic bag from his pocket, his expression embarrassed. He slowly opened the


    bag, revealing a few dozen notes inside.


    After he looked at jackie, he dropped onto his knees. “I–I’m not sick, young man, but my granddaughter


    is. She’s in so much pain that she can’t walk now. I–I only have this much money. Can you please take


    all of this to cure my granddaughter? I’m begging you!”


    jackie’s chest tightened after he heard that. “Where is she now? What are her symptoms?”


    “She’s underneath a bridge that’s not too far away from here. She has some problems with her waist.


    She probably twisted a muscle. We were picking up trash a few days before, and it was too heavy. She


    insisted on carrying it all by herself…”


    The old man thought about it, then he told jackie, “I don’t know what to do anymore. We can’t go to a


    regr hospital!”


    jackie considered the situation before shing a smile. “It’s probably a dislocated bone in the thigh. It’s


    not a problem. Keep your money. I’lle along with you to see her!”


    “All right. I’ll bring you there. But you must keep this money. It’s only right to give you a consultation fee,


    at least.”


    The old man hauled himself onto his feet. With a relieved expression, he stubbornly shoved the money


    into jackie’s hand.


    jackie never expected the old man, a beggar who is so advanced in age, would still have such strong


    principles. He could not help but admire the old man.


    “no need. We just opened this pharmacy, sir. You’re our very first customer, so let’s call this an opening


    discount, eh? You don’t have to pay me. Let’s go. Take me to see her!”


    jackieughed.


    After he said that, he turned toward the old Chinese doctor, Terrence Chaffry. “All right, we’re going off


    first. Just keep watch here, Dr. Chaffry. Call me if you run into any uncertain or incurable diseases. If you


    meet any terminally ill patients who are rich, tell them that I can cure them. But their bill will probably


    come up to a few hundred million or a billion dors. Depending on their condition.”


    “All right. Got it!”


    Terrence nodded his head, smiling. He could tell that jackie was somewhat of a modern Robin Hood. He


    would treat the rich who came to see him, and if they were suffering from a serious disease, he would


    charge them exorbitant fees. Meanwhile, he would not charge the poor much, even if they were suffering


    from regr diseases. For example, he decided to help the old man today for free.


    Soon enough, the old man brought jackie, Selena, and Lana to a nearby bridge, where they stopped


    below an arch.


    “Ah!”


    A young woman could be seen lying below the bridge. She wanted to move, but pain suddenlynced


    throughout her body—so furious that it made her veins pop and raked an anguished cry from her mouth.


    The woman was about 20 years old. Dirt smudged across her cheeks, and her clothes were tattered, but


    she had fine features, and anyone could tell that she was a beauty from a single nce. She would


    probably be gorgeous if she dressed up.


    “Oh my, it’s a beauty!”


    Lana could not help but smile when she saw the other woman.


    Chapter 963 “Who–who are you?”


    The young woman was frightened by their appearance, worried that they were up to no good.


    “Don’t be scared, Brianna. I brought this Chinese medicine practitioner here to take a look at you!”


    The old beggar quickly exined to his granddaughter. The young woman managed a sigh of relief when


    she heard that.


    jackie walked over and crouched down, cing a hand on her shoulder. “Lay down first!”


    The young woman did as he said, enduring the pain. jackie began to gently massage the area around


    her waist.


    “You have a dislocated bone, miss. I have no choice, so don’t mind me!”


    jackie gave an embarrassed cough before moving his hand downward, stopping right above her


    buttocks.


    Brianna’s face reddened, and her pulse quickened. She could do nothing but clench her teeth in silence.


    She was well aware that the little money her grandfather had was not enough for any doctor to prescribe


    medicine for her.


    This doctor though was willing toe from afar just to see her. This was a rare opportunity plus he did


    not mind her grandfather and her dirty, scraggly appearances. He probably was not a bad person.


    However, the position of his hand naturally made a young woman like her extremely embarrassed. Her


    cheeks were as red as tomatoes.


    “Hold on for a little longer. It’ll be over soon!”


    jackie kneaded his wrist, then gave a light p.


    “Ah!”


    Brianna released a cry of pain. Her thigh bone and femoral head finally clicked back together, resulting in


    a clear crack that sliced through the air.


    The sound rang out clearly. However, it was easy to miss it too, if one was not paying attention.


    “All done!”


    jackie stood up, his lips curling into a reassuring smile.


    “It–it’s done?”


    Brianna was astonished. She moved her leg experimentally. She could truly move now, and it was not


    the least bit painful.


    “Th–thank you, sir. My leg is truly better!”


    Brianna immediately got up and bowed toward jackie.


    “No need to thank me!”


    jackie smiled. “Right. So how did you end up in this predicament?”


    The old man looked at jackie and released a long sigh. “Ah, it’s a long story, young man. We can’t help


    that we’ve been reduced to this state. Let’s not talk about it!”


    Selena observed the two beggars before turning toward her husband and saying, “We’re looking for


    some servants, right, dear? Why don’t we…”


    jackie instantly understood what she meant. He bobbed his head and spoke to the beggar and his


    granddaughter, “That’s right. We’re looking for some helpers around our house. Perhaps you’re


    interested? If you’re fine with it, sir, you can help to maintain the garden. And this youngdy can help


    with cleaning the house!”


    Chapter 964 “S–sir, we’re just beggars. You’ve already helped us so much. It won’t do for you to have


    beggars in your workce, no?”


    The old man was extremely touched, but he spoke with a tinge of embarrassment.


    “you won’t be beggars any longer if you work in my ce. More importantly, food and lodging will be


    covered, so you don’t have to worry about it!”


    jackie chuckled and replied.


    “Th–thank you, Doctor!”


    Tears welled up in Brianna’s eyes, threatening to spill out. She stepped forward and thanked him


    profusely.


    “Let’s go. First off, let’s get you two some new clothes. You can shower and get a good rest when we get


    back. You’ll start work tomorrow!


    “And I’ll pay you 10 thousand dors per month. How about that?”


    jackie spoke in a flippant tone, smiling.


    “Young man, this–this is too much, isn’t it? You don’t have to pay us that much. Just give us any amount.


    We’ll be eternally grateful so long as we have a ce to stay and food to eat!”


    The old beggar could not hold his tears in for much longer.


    “don’t say that. I treat everyone equally. All my subordinates receive the same amount of wages. It


    makes it easier for me to keep track of my funds too!”


    jackie burst intoughter.


    At this moment, his phone rang out.


    He could not help but frown when he saw that it was Skyler who called. The king of war rarely called him,


    so when he did, there was something going on.


    After the call ended, jackie shook his head slowly, a bitter smile creeping over his lips.


    “What’s wrong? Did something happen at home?”


    Selena furrowed her brows and asked jackie.


    He nodded his head in return. “Yes. Skyler told me that a few kings of war came to our ce looking for


    trouble, but they had to leave when they saw him so in the end they didn’t do anything.”


    Here, jackie paused before continuing, “But Young Master Chaffman and Young Master Quinton came by


    not long after with a few men in tow, looking for trouble. They injured two of our bodyguards, and their


    arms had been broken. Skyler was afraid of blowing the matter up, so he just killed the two fighters and


    their bodyguards, leaving those two b*stards alive!”


    “So that’s what happened. No wonder he called you!”


    Selena came to a realization. “Then we’d better head back first. The two injured bodyguards need your


    medical attention!”


    “Yup!”


    jackie bobbed his head. “We’ll quickly get two sets of clothes for them, then we’ll head back


    straightaway.”


    The old beggar and Brianna were moved after they heard the conversation.


    They wondered which family the young man before them belonged to. A few kings of war came to them,


    looking for trouble, but they were so scared that they left. Even Young Master Quinton and Young Master


    Chaffman ended up frightened to their wits after they had gone to them, looking for trouble. It seemed


    that the people before them were indeed very powerful.


    jackie quickly brought the two to buy clothes before heading back.


    He ordered a servant to bring the two to their amodation to take a rest. jackie also handed them two


    thousand dors each, ensuring that they had some pocket money. Only then did he attend to the two


    injured bodyguards.


    Chapter 965 “ jackie, I didn’t know what to do when you and Miss Selena weren’t around, honestly. I


    didn’t want to cause any trouble for us when we’ve just arrived in Swallow City. Besides, the two fighters


    from the Chaffman family were really strong—probably as strong as six-star or seven-star Kings of War. I


    killed them, just to teach them a lesson.”


    Skyler exined everything to jackie when he saw thetter’s arrival.


    jackie took out two pills and gave one each to the bodyguards. Then he looked at Skyler. “Good job. You


    really showed them that we can’t be bullied,” he said. “Even a second-ss aristocratic family would be


    frightened if you killed two of their fighters in a sh!”


    “Here I thought that you would me me for my actions!”


    Skyler could not help but smile, seeing that jackie was not mad at him—rather, his master was pleased


    with his decision.


    “Why would I? These two bodyguards are your disciples, and they’re such strong fighters. They killed so


    many heroes from the enemy’s side on the battlefield, and they were injured. Of course, you can’t just let


    them off!”


    jackie was relieved. After he said that, he looked at the two bodyguards. “Take a good rest,” he said.


    “You can start training again after you both have adequate rest and try to improve your skills. We’re in


    Swallow City—the City of Martial Arts. There are plenty of strong fighters here!”


    “I would have killed all of them if I wasn’t afraid of revealing our identity. F*ck. I really want to weed out


    the arrogant idiots who think they can throw their weight about and bully everyone!”


    Skyler shed a bright smile.


    “ jackie!”


    At this moment, a voice abruptly rang out. Fiona stalked over, huffing. “What’s going on? I heard that you


    brought two beggars in. Either I’m drunk, or you’re drunk. We’re not some no-name family now—we have


    a powerful social standing. How could you just bring beggars in?”


    Skyler, ine, and the others exchanged nces. Their features twisted into snide expressions.


    Only a mother-inw like Fiona would dare to order jackie about like that. He was the Supreme Warrior!


    However, they knew that there was no way about it. She was his mother-inw, and jackie insisted on


    concealing his identity. He could not yell, he could not fight back; he could only endure it all.


    Still, they only realized that jackie’s temper had gotten better with her. When they had been on the


    battlefield, nobody dared to provoke the man who could make dozens fall with a swoop of his arm. They


    all needed to mind their words around him.


    “I suggested it, Mom. They were in such sorry states, so I wanted jackie to help them!”


    Selena smiled and exined to Fiona.


    “But how can we just take in beggars? We’re not some refugee camp, nor are we a charity. Besides, it


    would be so embarrassing if anyone found out about this!”


    Fiona’s expressions softened slightly when she learned that it was Selena’s idea. Nevertheless, she had


    both arms folded over her chest, and she spoke in an exasperated tone.


    “Mom, they were beggars before. I’m not taking them in for free. They’re going to work here, and they’ll


    be our servants from now on. They’ll receive 10 thousand dors per month just like the other servants.


    They won’t be beggars then, right?”


    jackie tried to negotiate, smiling.


    “Hmph. I’ll forgive you this once. But don’t simply take in beggars next time!”


    Fiona harrumphed before leaving in a huff.


    The two beggars, Nathanael and Brianna Sullivan, quickly finish showering and changed into the clothes


    that jackie had bought for them.


    The two went to see jackie and thanked him and Selena.


    jackie’s eyes immediately brightened when he saw the two. He could tell that these two carried a strange


    dignity that could not be found in any regr person.


    Especially Brianna, who had a poised manner that was not unlike that of a youngdy of a significant


    household.


    Chapter 966 jackie did not pester them with any more questions no matter the consequences; they did


    not seem to want to resume their chat either. After all, everybody had their own secrets.


    “It’s noon now, and you guys must be hungry. Let me ask the kitchen staff to prepare some lunch for you!


    Rest well this afternoon since you’ve got some free time, and we’ll get ine to arrange some work for


    you tomorrow!” jackie, after sorting out his thoughts and ns, made some arrangements and asked


    them to leave.


    It was only after walking a good distance away that Brianna Sullivan spoke to Nathanael Sullivan,


    “Grandfather, why haven’t we heard about the White family before? It looks like Skyler Celestino is very


    good. He was able to kill two masters that were on par with six or seven-star Kings of War. He’s


    incredibly skilled!”


    Nathanael smiled and replied, “That’s right. jackie and Selena are rather wealthy as well—what with


    those twenty vis—but it seems like most of them are empty. This means that they’re not a strong


    power. Nheless… Why are they daring enough to offend a second-ss aristocratic family when


    they’re not strong? Aren’t they afraid that their enemies would get back at them as they killed the


    masters owned by the second-ss aristocratic family?”


    Brianna also nodded. “Think about it, Grandfather: What does it mean when such a strong master is


    willing to follow jackie and Selena around? This means that jackie is either a significantly important


    individual that Skyler Celestino willingly dedicated himself to jackie, or jackie’s that strong for the master


    to willingly follow him.” Brianna paused and gave a wry smile before adding, “There’s also the possibility


    that the pair has deep pockets to offer him a handsome sry, so much so that it moved the other


    person to agree to work as their bodyguard’s headmander!”


    Nathanael thought about it and nodded. “Yes, that makes sense.”


    Nathanael was still unsure of the situation and what to make of it when Brianna continued, “But if we’re


    talking about handsome pays, then it’d make no sense since a master like that could’ve joined first-ss


    aristocratic families or other more powerful ns, don’t you think? Their sry offer would surely be


    higher, and it’s stranger that I’ve never heard of this White family before!”


    Nathanael sighed. “Whatever it is, we’ve finally met someone nice. Let’s just stay here and work hard to


    repay their kindness.”


    Brianna frowned and reluctantly argued, “But Grandfather, you know what I want. I really want to get my


    revenge!”


    Nathanael gave her a bitter smile and shook his head at her words. “Revenge? Do you know how difficult


    that is? Apart from that, it’s really nice that they’re able to help us. On what grounds should we ask


    people to help us? Apart from that, we shouldn’t involve them as they’d be like mere ants to our enemies


    who, might I say, are powerful.”


    The dejected Brianna inwardly sighed and fell silent.


    …


    “Young Master Chaffman, I—I’ll be taking my leave now!” stammered Caleb, wiping the cold sweat on


    him after he helped Young Master Chaffman into the car.


    Too shook to evenprehend, Peace merely gave a short, “Alright, alright!”


    Upon arriving in his own home, Caleb smoked several cigarettes in his room to calm himself down.


    To the two, it felt like they had a narrow escape from death.


    It was in the afternoon that a thought urred to Caleb, and he immediately drove to his second uncle,


    Hunter.


    Hunter had just finished lunch and was back in his own vi. Sitting under arge tree in his yard, he


    sipped his tea as he peacefully listened to rxing music.


    “Uncle, thank goodness…! Thank goodness that you’re still here instead of picking on jackie. I’m telling


    you—don’t. Don’t do it. Even if your Kings of War friends went, they would’ve failed!”


    Chapter 967 Caleb approached Hunter and instantly advised against offending jackie.


    With a displeased expression, Hunter curiously asked, “How did you know that? Didn’t you want me to


    teach them a lesson not long ago? Isn’t this a trouble you caused?”


    The fact that Hunter lost one of his fingers all because of his nephew, Caleb, made him rather bitter.


    Apart from that, the other party gave him respect and asked him to go in alone because Miles Stone was


    Skyler Celestino’s old subordinate. If Miles was not there, or if Miles did not have a good rtionship with


    the eight-star King of War, all of them would have been dead.


    The thought of what happened on this day still shook him to the very core, and all would be Caleb’s fault


    if he died because of it.


    “Sigh… You don’t know anything. I was really angry when I thought about how you lost a finger. I thought


    about it and used the trick—get somebody to do my dirty work!”


    Caleb poured himself a cup of tea before he added, “You know how Young Master Chaffman likes


    women, right? Under my instigation, we brought an impressive number of bodyguards with us. Two of


    them were masters who hadbat powersparable to a six-star King of War, but they were all killed


    in a fight! The other party eventually spared us and let us go unharmed!”


    “Two six-stars Kings of War were killed?” Hunter inhaled sharply at that. Skyler truly was ruthless to have


    killed two masters mercilessly.


    “They’re not six-star Kings of War. They’re just masters from the Chaffman family who hadbat


    powersparable to six-star King of War, yet they perished in the end. I estimated that the White family


    master must be exceedingly strong where you and your friends might not stand up to his attacks.


    Surviving the ordeal, I rushed all the way here, afraid that you might’ve gone over with your people,”


    Caleb exined.


    Hunter nced at Caleb before making an indignant noise. “Hmph! I’ll take it that you still have your


    conscience and still think of me!”


    Hunter once again smiled bitterly at this point of the conversation and said, “However, we’ve gone to the


    White residence just now, and I’m lucky my friend, Miles, knows the master in the White family. I


    would’ve been a goner otherwise!”


    “What?! You guys have gone there?” Caleb had chills down his spine when he thought about it. “You’re


    saying that they let you go because Miles knew them and did it out of respect for him?”


    “Exactly. We’re incredibly lucky, now that I think about it.” Hunter smiled bitterly. “It’s best not to offend


    the White family. We’d die from it, and there’s no way of avenging ourselves then.”


    Caleb never thought he would see the day his powerful uncle would say something like that.


    He finally nodded. “Nevermind, nevermind… It’s good that we’re alive to see another day. Even though


    they’re afraid of the Chaffmans, our family wouldn’t be able to avenge me. After all, our Quinton family


    isn’t even a third-ss aristocratic family!”


    “Has that finally registered to that head of yours? Next time, keep a low profile. Don’te to me the


    next time you cause trouble—I won’t help you. Don’t always think that your uncle will clean up your


    mess,” fumed Hunter, a cold, condescending smirk on his face as he did.


    “I understand. Still… I believe that Young Master Chaffman won’t give up as he’s never suffered such a


    loss. The Chaffman family has never suffered something like this either,” theorized Caleb.


    Chapter 968 Hunter nodded at Caleb’s words, agreeing to him. “That’s possible. Anyways, it’s best if we


    don’t provoke them. Who knows who these people are to be able to get an eight-star King of War


    working as their bodyguard!”


    Hunter then added, “Truly, I don’t think Young Master Chaffman would give up. After all, he lost two


    masters who had powersparable to six-star Kings of War. He can’t hide this, and when the


    Chaffman family knows about it, they’ll surely start something.”


    Caleb nodded. “This is good for us. We don’t need to do anything and just let them fight among


    themselves!”


    Despite his positive opinion, Caleb was bitter at the fact that he would not have a chance with those


    women if they fought.


    Caleb left Hunter’s residence after he drank tea for some time.


    At that moment…


    Several members of the Taylor family were caught in a city not far away from Eastfield.


    The Taylors knelt on the ground, shivering as they anxiously eyed the people surrounding them.


    “Be honest! Tell us who killed my son and Freeman’s family master’s son. If you don’t tell us the truth, I’ll


    kill you all!” The Lambert family’s third elder, Tao Lambert, was extremely angry when he recalled the


    death of his son, Lucas. Unable to eat properly for the past few days and had waited for news every day,


    he unfalteringly searched for members of the Taylor family in nearby cities.


    Atst, they managed to snag a few of them.


    Despite having captured extended rtives of the Taylors, he was unsatisfied; Tao Lambert knew these


    damned Taylors were smart. Not only did they sneak away at night, but they even ran separately. It was


    extremely difficult to get all of the Taylor family members.


    It would still prove to be a difficult feat to find all the Taylors and kill them, even though he had many men


    working for him.


    One of the Taylors was an old man who quivered out of fear. “If… If we tell you everything we know, will


    you really let us go?” stammered the old man.


    “You’ll be released—you have my word,” Tao smirked. “Tell us, who killed those four young people and


    where they ran off to? I believe you guys must still be in contact with them, right?”


    “I… I’ll tell you!” A middle-aged man gritted his teeth, raised his hand, and forced out, “It… It was jackie.


    We saw him kill that young man with our own eyes.”


    “ jackie?” Tao frowned and looked at Louis next to him after he heard what the man said. “Master


    Freeman, he sounds rather familiar, no?”


    Louis thought about it and also frowned. “It does, indeed, but I just can’t put my finger on it right now.”


    The middle-aged man immediately spoke in order to keep his family alive, “ jackie is the man who


    married our family’s young miss, and the Nine Great Gods of War attended their wedding. He’s the


    exclusive doctor of the Nine Great Gods of War, so he’s in a rather genial rtionship with them!”


    Tao sharply inhaled at that. “It’s that guy. I remember it now! Years ago, one of the people from your


    family, Ivan Taylor, offended my son’s fiancee, who’s also Freeman’s family master’s daughter, Snow.


    However, my son didn’t n to kill Ivan. Instead, he assigned a quota for your Taylor family to join the


    war…”


    Chapter 969 “That’s right. However, our Taylor family’s old master came up with an idea. He asked Miss


    Selena and that young man, jackie to get into a fake marriage. Once they were wed, that son-inw who


    married into our family went to the battlefield as Young Master Ivan’s recement, but no one expected


    him to safely return!


    “ jackie was a low-profile person. If he hadn’t reorganized a wedding ceremony for Miss Selena, we


    wouldn’t have known that he was so good that the Nine Great Gods of War attended his wedding!” The


    middle-aged man from the Taylor family immediately exined to them.


    “How can someone be so strong after spending five years on the battlefield? You have to understand


    that the person who had killed my son and the rest had to be on par with some Kings of War—those with


    many stars. It seems like this young man named jackie is quite talented,” surmised Tao.


    “ jackie White! We can let the others go but jackie, his wife, and his family must’ve escaped together. We


    have to find him and kill them all. Only then would I have avenged my daughter! I don’t care if he’s


    friends with the Nine Great Gods of War. Those people attended his wedding ceremony as a sign of


    respect, but it’s possible that they won’t avenge a mere doctor like him!” The Freeman family master was


    extremely angry at that moment, wanting nothing more than to shred jackie into pieces.


    “Where are they? Where did they go? Tell us now, or we’ll kill you!” Tao aimed the tip of his sword at the


    middle-aged man’s neck and forced him to answer.


    “I—I don’t know! jackie was very cunning! They told us to go to him privately if we don’t want to leave


    with him. He’d give each family some money and asked us to find a hiding ce. How would I know


    where they run off to? For all I know, they’re probably somewhere far away!” The middle-aged man was


    so frightened that he stumbled in his words as cold sweat appeared on his forehead.


    A thought then urred to Louis as he ordered the middle-aged man, “Phone number! You guys must


    have his phone number. Call him and try to probe for the location they’re at right now, ask which city


    they’re hiding in, and make sure you don’t slip up about being captured when you make the call. Do you


    understand me?”


    “Yes! Act like it’s a normal call, got it?” said Tao firmly with a nod of his head.


    “Yes, w—we have their contact!” The middle-aged man took his phone out with trembling hands and


    made the call.


    It did not take long for them to realize the phone number was no longer in use.


    “It looks like they’ve canceled this number and gotten a new one.” The middle-aged man looked at the


    people in front of him with a frown on his face.


    Tao gritted his teeth. “These people are sneaky, but they seem to be quite afraid of us. They wouldn’t


    have acted so carefully otherwise.”


    “Nonsense. It’s natural for them to be afraid. How can they not be afraid when they’ve offended powerful


    families from Gin City?” Louis’s face darkened. Although they managed to capture several people, they


    failed to obtain any useful information. They only know that the opponent’s name was jackie and had a


    wife named Selena.


    Of course, they could easily get their hands on their photos from some propaganda or posters.


    Chapter 970 The middle-aged man from the Taylor family swallowed his saliva and fearfully stammered,


    “Guys, do… Do you still have questions to ask? If not, can…can we leave?”


    Tao thought about it before pulling Louis to the other side and spoke, “Master Freeman, why don’t we


    release these people? After all, we promised that we’ll release them once they tell us everything that


    they know.”


    “Release them?” Master Freeman smiled coldly. “Elder Lambert, you promised to release them, but I


    didn’t. However, you needn’t worry as I’ll be the one to kill them—you won’t even need to lift a finger.


    That way, you won’t be breaking your promise, right?”


    Tao thought about it and offered, “Killing these people means nothing as we won’t get our revenge. Why


    don’t we let them go and have them inform us when jackie and the others contact them? Since we’re


    letting them go, it’s likely that they’d be indebted to us and do just that! If you kill them, on the other hand,


    the other Taylors would hide from us when they know about this.” Tao paused before he added, “By then,


    it’d be even difficult for us to find this jackie.”


    “Fine” It did make sense to Louis after mulling it over. He then walked toward the captured Taylor family


    members and remarked, “I can let you guys go, but you must tell me if jackie contacts any of you. I’ll


    handsomely reward you at least a hundred million if there are any valid leads. I’ll even pay one billion if


    the lead proves to be useful to us!”


    “Yes, yes, we’ll surely contact you if there are any leads. After all, it’s all because of jackie that we’re in


    this situation today!” The middle-aged man nodded vehemently, inwardly relieved at the opportunity to


    leave.


    “Leave,” Louis waved his hand dismissively.


    The Taylor family members immediately ran away as though afraid they would change their minds and


    kill them instead.


    “ jackie and Selena? I don’t believe it. I’ll get you people, sooner orter!” Louis gritted his teeth, furious


    at the turn of events.


    “Master Freeman, we’ve at least received some intel, right? Now, we have a rough picture of what went


    down. Seems like jackie’s got quite the skills to have in the group of four—my son and three others.”


    Tao walked over to pat Louis by his shoulder and assessed the situation. “Apart from that, there’s


    something else that we’re sure of: That guy is really talented, and that means we need to find him soon


    and kill him. It’ll be difficult to kill him in several years after he grows!”


    “Yes, you’re right, but that guy is really cunning as well. He asked most of the Taylors to run away by


    themselves after they took the money. To be honest, he’s afraid that too many people would draw


    attention. Hence, it’d be difficult to find him. The Nine Provinces are so big, and it’d be very easy to hide


    several people.”


    Louis smiled bitterly. “It’s alright if they remain in the country, but it’ll be burdensome to look for them if


    they leave.”


    “Sigh… There’s nothing else we can do aside from looking for them. Search the nearby cities and


    townships. We also need to search further south!” Tao sighed. “At least we know that they’re hiding from


    us—they’re not that powerful though they’re good, it seems. Otherwise, they won’t be afraid of using


    to search for them.”


    Meanwhile…


    In a vi in Swallow City, Peace Chaffman felt rejuvenated atst after taking a bath and a nap, relieved


    after being terrified down to the core.


    Chapter 971 “How could they just kill the masters of my Chaffman family? Those useless bodyguards


    don’t matter much, but they dared kill the mastersparable to six-star Kings of War. How should I tell


    my family about this?” Peace growled to himself. “I have to tell my father and the others, even if it costs


    me to lose those two women. I have to get my revenge!”


    Peace made up his mind and drove to a huge vi with several bodyguards in tow.


    It was a residence where the Chaffmans stayed most of the time, and the vi where Peace lived in was


    where he would go to enjoy his personal space.


    It was also the ce he enjoyed his time with pretty women when he had nothing to do. He always went


    behind his father and elders’ back because they did not like how he did not engage in honest work.


    The Chaffmans normally choose to turn a blind eye, so long as Peace did nothing overboard.


    “Oh my, Young Master! Why are you back today?” One of the maids immediately came forward and


    greeted him after he got down from his parked car.


    Peace walked two steps forward and patted the maid’s buttocks upon recognizing her. “It’s been a long


    time, Jean, and your figure has gotten better! Let me admire your body someday when we’re free. How


    does that sound?”


    “Bad? Young Master, you’re getting better at joking. You aren’t short of prettydies, are you? When


    would you remember somebody like me?” The maid rolled her eyes at Young Master Chaffman


    flirtatiously, her words rather suggestive tinged with displeasure.


    Although Peace was frivolous with women, he was a generous person. Everybody knew that the money


    they would get for spending a night with him was enough for maids like them for the rest of their lives.


    Sometimes, he spent several millions in a go.


    That exined why some maids would not decline Peace’s advances; they even anticipated it.


    “I’m thinking about you right now, aren’t I, Jean?” Peace smirked and suggestively added, “Oh yes, clean


    up nicely and sneak into my room tonight. I’ll explore life with you, how does that sound?”


    “Young Master, that’s very bad of you. I won’t talk to you anymore!” Jean acted reserved and ran away


    blushing though she was giddy at the thought, happy at the prospect of spending time with him.


    Not long after that, Peace arrived at the living room of a big vi.


    At that moment, Master Chaffman and Old Master Chaffman were ying chess in the living room as


    several elders of the family observed them from behind.


    “Why have youe back? The sun must’vee up from the west side. I thought you’ve forgotten that


    you’re a member of the Chaffman family!” remarked Old Master Chaffman, followed by a chuckle at the


    sight of Peaceing in through the door. “Oh, right! I heard that you’ve asked two of our secret guards


    to go out with you. Were you in trouble or something?”


    Peace lowered his head and gritted his teeth before he muttered, “A very huge trouble. Grandfather, the


    secret guards… Both secret guards…have died.”


    Chapter 972 Not many people could be a Chaffmans’ family guard. Of course, all their secret


    guards were true masters.


    People with strengthparable to four or five-star Kings of War were qualified to be the Chaffman


    family’s secret guards.


    These guards wouldy low under normal circumstances, only taking action when the Chaffmans faced


    great trouble or threat.


    s, there were only a dozen of these family guards despite theirbat prowess.


    When Old Master Chaffman came back, he was secretly unhappy when he found out that Peace ordered


    two of the secret guards to go out with him.


    He decided to let it slide, however, as Peace was his grandson. Some women outside might have caught


    his eye.


    Never did Old Master Chaffman see iting, however, that Peace would tell them their two secret


    guards were dead.


    “Peace, are you telling the truth? You’re saying that those two secret guards are dead?” blurted the


    startled Master Chaffman as all eyes—the Chaffmans—turned to Peace.


    After all, the person who could kill the Chaffman family’s secret guards definitely had strongbat


    powers. The crucial point was that the opponent dared kill two secret guards when they knew the


    Chaffmans employed them. It seemed like his son had offended some powerful people.


    “It… It’s true!” Peace nodded, knowing well that he could never bury this incident. It would have meant


    nothing had it been a regr bodyguard or even the leader of their usual guards. After all, they were rich


    and could employ anyone, anytime.


    Moreover, people dying was a regr urrence in Swallow City. It was not called the City of Martial


    Arts for nothing, after all.


    However, the death of the secret guards was a great loss to the Chaffman family.


    Old Master Chaffman exhaled deeply before slowly standing up. He gazed at Peace with a sharp,


    intense gaze as he crisplymented, “I think we’ve spoiled you a little too much. We normally don’t


    control you when you bring bodyguards to show-off publicly, only asking you to not cross powerful


    people, but it seems you’ve done just that this time.”


    Old Master Chaffman paused here before asking, “Tell us: Which powerful people did you offend? Which


    family do they belong to?”


    “I’m not actually sure which power they’re from…” replied the unsure Peace, unable to search his


    thoughts.


    “What?!” The members of the Chaffman family gazed at each other in speechless dismay.


    “You caused two of our secret guards to die without even knowing which powerful family those people


    are from?” The bbergasted Master Chaffman almost passed out from anger. They suffered such a


    huge loss, yet his son had no idea of the assant’s background.


    “They’re not powerful people. I only know that there’s a guy among them called jackie and a woman


    called Selena. There’s also a woman who wears a face mask!”


    Chapter 973 Peace thought about it and remarked, “That man called jackie and the woman wearing a


    mask seemed to be skilled, though the other woman—Selena—seemed rather ordinary. They’re no


    match for our secret guards for sure, but… Many of our bodyguards and our secret guards were killed by


    a man seemingly in his forties or fifties, and he was the headmander of their bodyguards!”


    “Headmander of their bodyguards? That powerful?” Old Master Caffman frowned and asked again,


    “How strong were the two secret guards you brought with you?”


    “Theirbat abilities are on par with six-star Kings of War,” said Peace, a bitter smile on his face as he


    continued, “which was why it surprised me to no end how they were in so easily. My guess is that the


    old man is equal to a seven or even eight star King of War.”


    “You…” Old Master Chaffman felt white-hot anger coursing through him as he pointed sharply at Peace,


    saying, “Those secret guards that have died are very powerful. Oh my god, these people you offended


    must be from a second-ss aristocratic family at least!”


    “Grandfather, I didn’t ask for this. How would I know that they’d be so strong! Sigh… What should I do


    now? I suggest that we end them soon or we’d be shamed for it. Others willugh at us when they hear


    about this!” Peace could not help himself and tried to instigate Old Master Chaffman.


    “Do you think that they won’t have other masters helping them when a headmander of theirs can kill


    two of our masters? We’re strong, that’s correct, but our family is only a second-ss aristocratic family.


    If we continue investigating this issue, the other party might kill many of our people if they act in


    desperation, even if they only have a masterparable to a seven or eight-star King of War!”


    “By then, our power would be greatly weakened. I’m afraid that it’d be difficult for us to continue living in


    this Swallow City!” one of the Chaffman family’s elders spoke up after assessing the situation.


    “However, won’t othersugh at us if they heard about this?” another young man of the Chaffman family


    chimed in and voiced out his thoughts. “Apart from that, I’ve never heard about any strong jackie White in


    Swallow City!”


    He then turned to Peace and insisted, “Young Master, you should know how big the ce they live at,


    right?”


    “It’s not very big, about twenty vis next to one another. Seems like they’re not much of a threat, and I


    didn’t see many bodyguards,” replied Peace after recalling the information he had with him. “Of course,


    the woman with a face mask is rather skilled. The Quintons’ young master, Caleb Quinton offended the


    trio while his second uncle, King of War Hunter Moore wanted to help him get back at them. s, the


    woman with a face mask easily bested him.”


    “Hunter Moore?” Master Chaffman frowned. “He’s a three-star King of War. Looks like the woman you


    mentioned is a master withbat abilitiesparable to four or five-star Kings of War. I’m sure that


    this woman and the older man you’ve mentioned moments before are people that should never be


    crossed.”


    “We really can’t let something like this go, but I get that we can’t act rashly either since we don’t know


    much about them. If we don’t take action now, we might be the ones regretting itter!” Old Master


    Chaffman kept quiet for a while before he spoke, “Peace, don’t start anything with them, do you


    understand? I’ll send someone over for a background check on them. If they’re powerful people from


    other ces and are here for a trip, we might suffer the consequences of offending them.”


    “Grandfather is right. We should investigate their backgrounds and make our move after we know a little


    more about them.” Peace smiled embarrassingly. Although he wanted to bring people to pay jackie and


    the others a visit, he could not do anything apart from admitting his bad luck for the time being.


    Chapter 974 Selena was overwhelmed with worry that night, evident with the frown on her face as she


    laid down with jackie on the bed. “Honey, do you think the Chaffmans wille back and cause us


    trouble?”


    After all, the Chaffman family was much stronger than Caleb’s family. This was a second-ss


    aristocratic family, and a second-ss aristocratic family from Swallow City was far stronger than a


    second-ss aristocratic family of a small city like Eastfield.


    “That’ll depend on how smart they are. I can’t help it if they’re daring enough to cause us trouble when


    they know that we have such a strong master with us here! If they’re smart, they won’t act so rashly like


    that.


    “After all, we’ve just reached Swallow City, and I don’t think they know much about who we are or


    anything like that!” came jackie’s nonchnt reply, apanied by a chuckle of his own.


    “That’s true.” Selena smiled andid on jackie’s chest. She raised her head and asked again, “Hubby,


    when are you going to meet your father?”


    To that, jackie offered a wry smile. “Sometimeter. I’m still investigating something else here. Honey, a


    piece of dragon scale appeared in this city. I’m quite interested in it, so I n to investigate it thoroughly.”


    “Really? Are there really dragons in this world?” Selena frowned at jackie’s words. “You’re sure it’s a


    dragon scale and not the scale of some other animal?”


    “Honey, there’s more than dragons in this world, and I believe you’d have the chance to see them in the


    future!” assured jackie heartily.


    “Really? I fear that they’d scare the daylights out of me. That’s a mythical animal. I wonder if it really


    looks like that…and does it eat humans?” came Selena’s reply, though she paid not much mind into such


    an idea.


    “I’m a dragon, and I’ll eat you up!” With a hearty chuckle, jackie turned and pressed Selena under his


    body.


    “Dash, it’s sote and you still want to do it!” Blush seared Selena’s face as jackie kissed her deeply.


    At that moment, in the White family…


    The Ninth Patronum, Brenton White came toward Lily.


    “How did it go? What’s the progress on sending people to kill jackie? Now that we know where they live,


    it won’t take much time to go there and kill them, right?” Lily asked impatiently when she saw the Ninth


    Patronuming over.


    Brenton smiled bitterly before saying, “Madam, jackie and the others have left Eastfield.”


    “What? They’ve left?” Lily shot up from her seat at the news Brenton ryed. “Where did they go? Do


    you know?”


    “We don’t know yet. When our men came to the residence, they discovered that the house was empty


    and the people were gone, and they found out that jackie had crossed quite a handful of people. After


    our people were killed, powerful people from overseas came looking for him, but they were killed by


    jackie. Apart from that, he also offended a powerful family from Gin City—the Lambert family, and they


    silently left Eastfield as they offended such a powerful family.”


    Chapter 975 The Ninth Patronum smiled bitterly and reported his findings.


    “They secretly left Eastfield?” Lily’s expression shifted into one of distaste. “Is that guy thinking ofing


    to the White family after he offended powerful people from Gin City? He’s probably trying to seek shelter


    under the White family after angering such strong people and is left without much of a choice. He might


    seek protection from the family!”


    “We don’t know that. I heard that they sneaked out of the city in the middle of the night, and our men


    don’t know which direction they went to. I’m concerned that they’d go to the White family. If so, they


    might be reaching in another two days!” Ninth Patronum fretted at the possibility. After all, he had been


    taking the money meant for jackie and even received a lot of money from Lily.


    The Lagorio family was initially formidable while their eldest young master was extremely talented.


    Everybody was sure that he would be the White family’s master and, because of all this, he was


    daring enough to work for Lily, in the belief that jackie stood no chance of returning.


    Never did he think such sudden changes would happen, and that worried him.


    He thought of singling jackie out to kill jackie and Joan. It would be conducted secretly, burying


    everything else that had happened over the years effectively. s, he never expected his men would


    return empty-handed— jackie and the others had already left Eastfield.


    “We can’t let that guy reach the White family!” Lily was slightly worried. She thought about it and ordered,


    “Send more people and station them on the main roads to the White family. Kill jackie, Joan, and the


    others on sight!”


    “Alright. We can’t let theme to the White family alive, or there’ll be trouble!” The Ninth Patronum


    immediately nodded and was prepared to arrange his subordinates ordingly.


    However, Lily stopped him after he walked two steps away. “Ninth Patronum, remember that the men you


    dispatch have to obey you and keep everything confidential. Do you understand?”


    “Yes, Madam.” The Ninth Patronum made a gesture of respect before he headed out. He had to quickly


    make relevant arrangements or it would be difficult to kill jackie when he and hispany came.


    The next morning, Lana came looking for jackie.


    “Master, what happened to Senior is quite troublesome. We’ve been doing our investigation but found


    nothing useful. However, I know that he used to live at a hotel and made contact with powerful


    underground forces. Nobody knew what happened next.” The look in Lana’s expression and eyes bore


    seriousness and solemnity.


    “He made contact with the underground forces? Is it possible that the dragon scale is in the hands of


    some powerful people among the underground forces?” jackie thought about it and surmised, “The


    underground forces don’t do serious businesses. However, since your senior said that it’s a trap, I


    believe that they’ll definitely contact us or find a way to locate us.”


    Lana thought about it and said, “You’re saying that we don’t need to hurry?”


    “Yes. Just send some people and ask around. I believe that the other party will contact us the moment


    they can. Of course, our people would have to investigate the matter as well, or they might not find us.”


    jackie nodded and stretched his body. “I want to see who it is, trying to oppose me. I’m not afraid of


    anybody in this world apart from the really reclusive families!”


    Chapter 976 At that moment, a bodyguard ran over and said to jackie, “Master, two beautifuldies are


    looking for you outside. Oh, yes, they’re also looking for Miss Selena and Miss Lana.”


    “They’re looking for the three of us?” A small frown appeared on jackie’s face as he quickly walked


    outside with Selena.


    As they got to their entrance, they realized that it was the two gorgeous-looking celebrities that lived next


    door.


    “Greetings, fairdies. Can we help you with anything? Come in and take a seat,” offered jackie as he


    smiled toward ke and Tianna.


    “We won’t be going in. We’re grateful that you saved us not too long ago and helped us. The weather is


    good today, so we’d like to invite you out for a meal. May we have the honor?” ke smiled shyly and


    nced at jackie sheepishly.


    “Why, yes! How can we refuse the invitation from two beautiful women? Of course, it’s our honor to have


    lunch with two famous celebrities!” jackie nodded and agreed to it.


    Tianna stretched her limbs as she smilingly beamed, “Then let’s go. With you two, we don’t even need to


    bring our bodyguards. It’d be much morefortable like this!”


    “Do we need to drive?” asked Selena after thinking about their offer.


    “No need for that—there’s a nice restaurant not far ahead of us. Both me and ke like to go there for


    food when we’re free. The taste and other aspects of the restaurant are amazing!” Tianna smiled and led


    the way with Tianna.


    The quintet soon arrived at a nice restaurant.


    Many passersby secretly took photos of them with their cell-phones as they made their journey.


    They felt envy sizzling within them, especially toward jackie. After all, he was the only man among the


    group of five, and his four femalepanions were utterly stunning. How could others not be envious of


    such a scene?


    Even when jackie left the house with Selena and Lana, he would attract many envious looks. How could


    the others not be jealous of him as he walked with two A-ss celebrities?


    “F*ck! Who’s that man? He’s with ke and Tianna, no joke, and it’s hard enough to invite those two


    beautiful celebrities!” Many customers saw the five and murmured among themselves when the group of


    five sat down for food.


    “He must be some super rich young master. Only those young masters from aristocratic families who can


    afford to pay thousands or billions of money are qualified to invite such pretty celebrities. Otherwise,


    chances of asking them out would be t-out zero.”


    Another middle-aged man gushed, “Them ke and Tianna don’t involve themselves in scandals


    normally. Celebrities like these are rare in the current entertainment world!”


    Chapter 977 Of course, everyone else in the restaurant kept their voices low on purpose in a rather


    hushed manner.


    Still, jackie—who sat there—heard everything as clear as day, and his opinion about ke and Tianna


    rose by several points.


    After all, it was not easy for them to stay clean in such a circle.


    Unbeknownst to them, however, a few men who walked past them from the road outside the restaurant


    spotted the beautiful women with jackie.


    The eyes of one lit up. He ran to the other side and secretly made a call to a director. “Director Wagner, I


    saw ke and Tianna, and they’re having a meal with another man and two women. There are five of


    them in the restaurant, and no bodyguards in sight. This is a good chance!”


    The eyes of Director Wagner—on the other side of the phone—lit up as the corners of his mouth curled


    up in satisfaction. “Really? Splendid! Send me the address and I’ll send someone to get it done. I’m


    sending better men over this time, thest ones were downright useless. They can’t even bring in two


    women and even suffered a beating!”


    The man on the other side of the phone immediately sent the location to him.


    The man knew all too well that while Director Wagner was a director and majored in film-making, he was


    a far cry from being a good one and filmed several bad films.


    However, because he was a rich young master from a filthy rich family, a true third-ss aristocratic


    family at that, he had the money to fool around. That was why he was able to employ good celebrities to


    act in his films.


    The newbies would have a sexual rtionship with Director Wagner because they wanted to be the


    female main lead. That was what Director Wagner loved to do, and that was why he insisted on his


    dreams. He constantly made films so that he could meet such celebrities.


    He had his eyes set on ke and wanted her to film in his new movie so he could get his hands on her.


    Never did he expect, however, that she would turn him down despite offering her a handsome pay. That


    made Director Wagner displeased.


    “Once Director Wagner gets his hands on this woman, I’d be considered to have done a great service.


    It’d be nice if he gives me a good character!” The manughed as he ced his cell-phone back into his


    pocket before he left with his friends.


    “Please, order whatever you like, everyone. Don’t be courteous with us!” ke smiled as she stole


    nces of jackie in front of her with charming eyes.


    That man was not only utterly handsome to behold, but he also saved her twice. ke recalled how


    jackie took the tracker device from her button, and it made her heart jump furiously.


    jackie’s charms gradually caught her attention, and ke would catch herself thinking of him during her


    free time for the past two days. She had to admit that he was too outstanding, and she was immensely


    interested.


    “Then we won’t hold back.” jackie smiled. He ordered quite a number of dishes before passing the menu


    back to the waiter.


    After the dishes were served, the group of five started eating.


    Once they finished their meal, ke took the initiative and paid for their meal, and that induced jealousy


    from the people around jackie. They assumed that the man would be the one paying for the meal they


    shared with the beautiful celebrities, thus it shocked them when the celebrities were the ones treating the


    man to a meal. That was a distant dream for many.


    As the five stepped out of the restaurant, several cars drove over and surrounded them in a circle.


    Around 20 people came down from the cars and circled the five.


    “So many babes we got here!” one of the bald men said with a smile after eyeing them. “Why didn’t


    Director Wagner ask us to bring all the beauties away with us? All he asked for was ke. Won’t it be a


    waste to leave the other three?”


    Chapter 978 While the bald man had tattoos on his head, he seemed to be someone of importance and


    seemed to be the leader of this team.


    Another person with a sharp-shaped mouth and monkey-like features smiled as he spoke to the bald


    man, “Boss, there’s a simple solution for this: why don’t we just take ‘em all since we’re here and ready


    for action? In for a penny, in for a pound—let’s just capture them all! We’ll kill this man. As for the other


    fourdies… We’ll give ke to Director Wagner and keep the others.”


    “I like the sound of that! Why does it seem like these other two babes are somewhat better-looking than


    these two celebrities?” spoke the bald man, smirking as he wore a sleazy expression.


    “It seems like this so-called Director Wagner is quite powerful. Haven’t I given him punishment before?”


    jackie smiled coldly as he looked at the people in front of him.


    ke was rather worried at the sight of so many men. She estimated that these people had superior


    combat power than the previous ones.


    She looked at jackie and the others and, with a faintly worried expression, fretted, “I’m so sorry—seems


    like I’ve caused you people trouble again. It seems difficult to handle these…these people!”


    jackie smiled at her nonchntly. “Don’t worry—they’re just trash bags. This Director Wagner must have


    a death wish or something, wanting to try again after failing. It looks like I have to teach him a lesson!”


    “Director Wagner isn’t just a director. His family is very rich and is a third-ss aristocratic family! How


    else would he have that much money to fund his trashy films? He’s filmed several bad movies and not


    only did he fail to make any money, but he’s lost quite a lot. His parents, sadly, are so rich that they


    barely bat an eye at the fact, considering they could afford losing money.”


    Tianna smiled bitterly and said, “This guy loves filming movies because of the young people who have


    dreams of getting famous.”


    Everything clicked for jackie after he heard everything, and he nodded. “No wonder he acts so


    arrogantly: that casanova, so fixated on pretty women, came from a third-ss aristocratic family!”


    “You’re quite a womanizer, aren’t you, young man? I’m jealous that you get to go out with four enticing


    women!” The bald man smiled sinisterly and continued, “My apologies, however, that this will be yourst


    day on earth.”


    “‘Last day on earth’, huh? Are you sure?” jackie smiled coldly and focused his sight. He moved speedily


    and flickered right before them.


    “So fast!” The bald man lost focus as a flicker of light shed before him, and he was greeted with the


    abrupt face of jackie the moment he regained focus.


    Startled at his speed, the bald man clenched his fist and was prepared to punch jackie.


    Unlucky for him, jackie made the first move as his fist sharply jabbed against his chest.


    Thunk!


    With a slightly dull sound, the bald man flew outward andnded several meters away. Embedded to the


    ground, he lied motionless as blood spewed from the corners of his mouth.


    “What?!” Somebody took a look and was frightened till his face turned pale. That was a disy of


    immense power, no doubt.


    However, that person looked around him and was slightly more confident in himself. “F*ck, let’s attack


    together! This man is no simpleton! We’ll get him together and kill him!”


    jackie and Lana acted together, and all 20 people dropped like flies onto the floor.


    Chapter 979 Just like that, the bald man and hisrades were killed with only a few left alive; Lana and


    jackie let them off leniently.


    “That’s… That’s too strong, no?” ke and Tianna inhaled sharply, floored by jackie and Lana’sbat


    ability. It was seldom for them to meet such strong masters.


    “That’s nothing!” jackieughed and said to the people lying on the floor, “My name is jackie. Go back


    and tell Young Master Wagner to stop troubling Miss ke and Miss Tiana, you hear? They’re my best


    friends. If anything happens to them, he’ll be walking on eggshells the rest of his life.”


    Tianna and ke—who stood behind jackie—gazed in awe, conquered by his extremely domineering


    tonation. He was incredibly domineering and manly, threatening his enemies like that and vowed to


    protect them both.


    “Let’s go, time to head back.” jackie turned around and smiled before leaving with the others.


    It was only after they left that one of the men hastily called Director Wagner. “Young Master Wagner,


    we’ve met with some f*cking strong people this time. The woman wearing a mask and the man is too


    strong; we’re no match for them. Our people couldn’t even fight back, and half of our group was


    ughtered so easily. Only a few were spared, though still badly hurt!”


    “How’s that possible? Are they that powerful?” Young Master Wagner’s face darkened, his fists clenched


    tightly as it did. “Who’s this person? How dare he go against our Wagner family? Not only did it happen


    once—it happened twice now! F*ck! I’ll definitely kill this guy!”


    The bodyguard frowned at that and hesitantly stated, “Young Master Wagner, the guy called himself


    jackie, and he asked us to pass a message to you. He said that ke and Tianna are his friends and


    he’ll kill you if anything happens to them.”


    “He said that he’d kill me?” Young Master Wagner almost vomited blood in his fury. “That guy’s suicidal!


    F*ck! I don’t believe that jackie, a man I’ve never even heard before, dare stand up against us, a third-


    ss aristocratic family!”


    Young Master Wagner eventually ended the call and went back to the Wagner family mansion.


    He directly went to an elder and said to him, “Old man, don’t forget your promise before. You owe me a


    favor, and it’s time to go through that.”


    The elder with grey hair nodded. “I’ve long waited for this chance to pay back this favor of yours. I owe


    you nothing after this.”


    Young Master Wagner smirked and said to the elder, “Excellent. You said this yourself, and I’m sure you


    won’t disappoint me as you’re a seven-star King of War. I believe in you! I want you to kill a few people


    and capture a woman for me.”


    “It shall be done.” The elder nodded without any hesitation.


    “That’s great! Let’s go!” Young Master Wagner asked the elder to leave with him after that. He ordered a


    dozen of the Wagner family’s masters to follow him as they drove toward the direction where ke and


    Tianna lived.


    “There’s a group of four women and a man, eh?” As their cars arrived at the vi where jackie and the


    others stayed, Young Master Wagner’s eyesnded at the group of five who were slowly walking back


    home. His eyes lit up. “That other woman is a stunner herself!”


    Chapter 980 The elder from the Wagner family grimaced at Young Master Wagner’s words, and his eyes


    held faint disdain.


    He loathed those who oppressed others, but when he thought of the favor he owed Young Master


    Wagner and the Wagner family, the elder followed them out of the car.


    “Who’s this?” jackie frowned when he saw the other party from far away.


    “That’s Young Master Wagner, also known as Director Wagner! He got here so quickly!” ke took a


    look and her face slightly darkened. She fretted at the trouble she brought for jackie.


    “Well, it’s great that he’s here. Let’s teach him a lesson so he won’t hang onto these bad ideas every day.


    This time, I’ll turn him into a eunuch so he won’t constantly crave after women.” jackie smiled coldly as


    he eyed the men before him, rubbing his fists as he did.


    “You’ll be a goner today, young man. You’re rather gutless to even dare challenge me, Dn Wagner!”


    Dn arrived not far away from where jackie was and stopped. He smiled coldly as he scanned Selena


    and Lana from head to toe. “Young man, you’re doing quite good yourself. There seemed to be lots of


    beautiful women around you. Although a lot of my subordinates are sacrificed today, it seems like I’ve


    gained more than I’ve lost. Doesn’t seem fair if we only take home ke today.”


    “That’s right, Young Master. It’d be a waste if you don’t get the remaining three!” The other bodyguards


    also startedughing.


    The four beauties in front of them were extremely stunning.


    “Are you sure? You ordered twenty people toe after us before this, yet none of them could contend


    against me. You want to capture thedies with these trash bags?” jackie eyed the people in front of him,


    his eyes filled with disdain.


    “You’re a blind one, young man! This old man is a seven-star King of War, and he alone can kill you a


    hundred times over!” Dnughed out loudly. “How many heads do you think you have that we can cut


    off?”


    “Seven-star King of War? You’re a King of War?” jackie looked at the elder and frowned. “I never thought


    that a King of War would wallow in the mire with rubbish like these. You’re rather disappointing.”


    The corners of the old man’s mouth twitched and his facial expression immediately darkened. “You only


    have yourself to me, young man,” said the elder. “When I was on the battlefield, I didn’t have the time


    to care about my family. It was the Wagner family master who helped me bury my wife after she passed


    away. I owe their family a favor, and I’m here to return the favor.”


    The old man nced at Dn and continued, “While I don’t condone his actions, I need to fulfill my


    promises.”


    jackie smiled indifferently and said, “Alright. This means that your favor would be considered gone once


    you take action today, yes? Even if it means that you’d lose to me?”


    “I’m a seven-star King of War! How will I lose to a young man like you?” The elder startedughing after


    he heard what jackie said. “Young man, you really don’t have much respect for us Kings of War!”


    “You can try if you don’t believe me!” jackie made an indignant sound as he beckoned them to start.


    “Hmph!” The elder no longer wasted time in idle chat and stretched his hand out to hit jackie.


    A strong force of gust blew toward jackie as it carried an imposing momentum.


    “Your fighting ability is really good!” jackie was slightly surprised. Although this elder was a seven-star


    King of War, he already had thebat power equal to some eight-star Kings of War.


    jackie slightly moved to one side and simply evaded the old man’s attack when he saw the old man


    moving toward him.


    Chapter 981 “What?” The elder never expected jackie was faster than him and could evade his attack.


    By the time he regained his focus, jackie had kicked his abdomen.


    A dull sound was heard as the elder was sent backward several meters away. He stepped on the ground


    with his full strength to stabilize himself.


    However, as he managed to stabilize himself, he felt a sweet taste that surged from his throat. He


    vomited a mouthful of blood and his face turned pale.


    “Impossible! What sort of power is this?” Dn’s eyes widened in surprise when he saw the elder


    vomited blood. His mouth hung open so widely that it seemed as though his chin could touch the ground.


    “Goodness! Even the seven-star King of War is no match for him?!” The other masters from the Wagner


    family were baffled at the oue. That elder was their endgame, and he was the reason Dn dared


    to act so rampantly. After all, this elder owed them a favor, and he nned to utilize that in a critical


    moment.


    Dn never used that favor all the while, but he had to use it this time as many of his family bodyguards


    were in.


    He never thought things would turn out differently.


    “Ahh!” The elder gritted his teeth and flipped his palm. A sword appeared and he swung it toward jackie.


    “Are we seriously fighting?” jackie had noticed the ring on the elder’s hand since early on. He estimated


    that it held a sword as these rings were small storage units. Not many people owned such rings, and not


    many people could use them.


    jackie smiled coldly and flipped his wrist. His ck sword appeared right after, and he swung it toward


    the elder.


    Two powerful sword aura forces shed against one another, yet an even more daunting gust of wind


    was released.


    “Aah!” The strong wind caused many people to move backward. Selena could not stand straight and


    moved several steps backward from the scary impact.


    The wind blew ke’s dress up and showed her sexy long legs, to which she blushed embarrassingly.


    Both strong energies fought each other.


    Eventually, jackie’s sword aura gained the upper hand. The overwhelming power suppressed the


    opponent’s sword aura as the aura rushed through the elder.


    A scary wound appeared on the elder’s chest. The elder flew outward and the blood from his wound


    painted a perfect curve in the sky.


    The elderid on the floor and was unable to stand up as he gasped for air.


    jackie walked over and spoke with a cold smile on his face. “You can rest easy now, you’ve followed


    through your promise.”


    “Haha… “ The elder smiled bitterly as he awaited his death. “It feels much better…now that I’ve done my


    end of the bargain…”


    jackie ignored the elder. He swung his sword and the sword auras flew out toward the bodyguards, killing


    them in the process. Only Dn—who was so frightened that his legs had turned to jelly—was left


    standing in front of jackie.


    Chapter 982 “Young man, I…I’m the young master of a third-ss aristocratic family! You can’t kill me!”


    Dn’s legs turned into jelly in his bone-chilling fright. He wanted to escape but both his legs did not


    cooperate.


    jackie flipped his hand and the ck sword in his hand was nowhere to be seen. It had disappeared into


    thin air.


    “I won’t kill you,”mented the indifferent jackie with a tight smile.


    Dn rxed and smiled when he heard this. “And that’s a wise choice, my brother. It’s always better to


    have a friend than an enemy, right? From today onward, you are my brother, and we’ll be best friends.


    You should know that being friends with a third-ss aristocratic family’s young master would only


    benefit you!”


    Just as Dn finished, jackie lifted his heel and mmed it against Dn, breaking his balls.


    “Aaargh!” Dn immediately knelt in pain. The veins on his forehead popped due to the excruciating pain


    he was experiencing, and hisplexion was extremely pale.


    “I said that I won’t kill you, but I didn’t say that I won’t turn you into a eunuch!” jackie smiled coldly and


    loathingly added, “Now scram, you eunuch. You should stop fantasizing about women with this parting


    gift!”


    “Young man, you…you’re going to regret this! Do you t—think our family is j—just an ordinary one?” On


    the verge of fainting, Dn gritted his teeth as cold sweat kept appearing on his forehead. Though he


    struggled, he managed to get up, ordered a taxi, and left the scene.


    “And he still dared threaten me after all that?” jackieughed. He walked toward the elder and looked


    down at the other party.


    “Do whatever you want. If I, Walter Lamington, frown, I’ll give up my surname!” The elder’s name was


    Walter Lamington. Heid on the ground and had shallow breathing. However, the look in his eyes was


    extremely firm.


    The elder was surprised, however, when jackie took out a small pill instead and tossed it at him. “This is


    medication to cure your wound—your wound will heal speedily once you eat it. The favor you owed them


    has been paid. While you aided him in his despicable quest, you’re a person who values rtionships


    and promises. I’m not going to kill you.”


    “Thank… Thank you!” Walter gazed at jackie, rather astounded yet perplexed. He never held back when


    he attacked him. After all, he was a seven-star King of War and he thought that jackie would kill him to


    prevent any troubles in the future. He never anticipated a merciful jackie instead who handed him


    medication that could heal his wound instead of ending him.


    Walter took the pill after he spoke.


    “Thank you so much, jackie. We’ve troubled you so much this time!” ke walked over and smiled at


    jackie. She expressed her gratitude once again.


    Tianna, on the other hand, fretted at the oue and softly reminded, “ jackie, you might get into trouble


    for turning Dn Wagner into a eunuch.”


    “Oh? Is that so?”


    Chapter 983 Tianna’s warning, however, did not even perturb jackie. “I know,” said jackie. “Their family is


    a third-ss aristocratic family, right? I don’t really care much about these third-ss families. You saw it


    too, that I’m not afraid of a seven-star King of War. Why would I be afraid of a third-ss aristocratic


    family?”


    “No, I’m afraid that their family is more than what you think.”


    Unexpectedly, Tianna shook her head. “True, the Wagner family is indeed a third-ss aristocratic family,


    but Dn’s mother, Louisa Lowe belonged to a powerful family of the underground forces. This family is


    very powerful, but Louisa’s parents disliked Dn’s father and disapproved of them. Therefore, they


    didn’t pay much attention to Louisa. They have a bad rtionship and seldom keep in touch.”


    Tianna paused before she exined, “Regardless, Dn is still Louisa’s parents’ grandson. I believe


    they’d pay attention to what has happened and won’t ignore it, since it’s a rather serious incident.”


    jackie’s face turned slightly solemn hearing Tianna’s words. “Never expected that trash bag would have


    such rtionships. Still, I’ve always disliked underground forces. It doesn’t matter if they don’t cause us


    any trouble; I’ll teach them a lesson if they try anything funny.”


    Tianna, anxious at his demeanor, persistently added, ” jackie, I know that you’re very powerful, but you


    don’t know how big this underground force is. Not only do they have lots of people, but they have many


    masters with them as well. More importantly, they’re not powers from Swallow City—they’re daunting


    forces from Gin City!”


    “I didn’t think they’d be rted to Gin City!” Tianna assumed jackie was intimidated by the new


    information she offered, but he was only momentarily surprised before his expression watered down,


    completely calm and normal. “It’s okay. No matter what power they are, things will turn out the way they


    should be. I’ve hurt Dn, and I can’t back away from that. Apart from that, do you think that it’ll make a


    difference if I go over and apologize? They’d kill me for sure.”


    “That’s right!”


    Lana smiled bitterly and said, “Alright then. Youdies should head in first—no need to worry about this


    or me yourself about it. It’s jackie’s decision to make the other party a eunuch. It happened, so let it


    be.”


    “Alright… We’ll head home now.” ke looked at jackie before walking toward the gate that led to their


    vi with Tianna.


    jackie and the remaining duo nced at the old man on the ground before they left him there and


    entered their vi.


    It was not long until the old man sat up and was shocked at his wound.


    It was only a brief moment, yet his wound was almostpletely healed. His wound no longer oozed


    blood as well! The pill jackie gave him was indisputably miraculous.


    “Who is this man? Not only does he have such strong fighting power, but the healing pill he gave me is


    terrifyingly good as well. He’s even unfazed when he’s told that the Wagner family’s young master is


    rted to the Gin City forces. Who are they?” Walter frowned, his mind overwhelmed with thoughts.


    After sitting by the side for another hour, Walter was surprised to find that the wound on his body had


    completely healed.


    After thinking quietly for a short moment, he walked toward the entrance of jackie’s house.


    “I wish to see your master,” said Walter to one of the bodyguards solemnly.


    “We saw what happened just now. You can’t defeat our master, but it’s good enough that he spared you.


    Are you trying to cause trouble again?”


    One of the bodyguards gave a tight smile as he ushered, “You should go—”


    “No, I’m not here to cause trouble—the previous me is dead. I’m thankful to your master for sparing my


    life, and my life belongs to him from now on. I’m willing to serve your master,” dered the serious yet


    determined Walter.


    Chapter 984 Walter was brought in to meet jackie.


    “You really want to join our family?” questioned jackie as he took out a cigarette, leisurely lighting it up,


    and smoked. “Think of what you’re getting into. I’ve got bad blood with too many people, and Dn’s


    mother is rted to some underground forces from Gin City. They mighte looking for me soon. Are


    you still willing to work for me under such circumstances?”


    Unexpectedly, Walter nonchntly replied, “Since when am I, Walter Lamington, ever afraid of death?


    When I was fighting with you, I understood the difference between our strengths after I vomited blood as


    a result of your assault, but I never gave in and stood my ground till I nearly died. I’ve made up my mind


    before I came to fight you, knowing that either you or me has to go.”


    Walter paused before he added, “I just didn’t expect that you’d spare me, seeing that I went rather all-out


    on you. I see in you a good man, and it’ll be a pleasure working for you.”


    jackie chuckled, satisfied at his answer. Walter was a true man, no doubt. “Since you’ve said so, then I’ll


    agree to it. I’ll be upfront with you though, that the sry I offer is low. What do you think of twenty


    thousand a month?”


    “Money doesn’t matter; all I need is food. I’m notcking money, you see.” Walter arched his hand at


    jackie. “Thank you, Master, for taking in me regardless of what happened previously. I promise to do my


    best.”


    “This is great! We have another master in our ranks!” ine smiled, ted at the oue.


    “ine, bring him away and arrange amodation for him,” jackie waved his hands and asked ine


    to bring Walter away.


    …


    Dn went straight to the hospital by taxi. After the doctor did the diagnostics, they had no other choice


    but to undergo a resection operation. Dn, true enough, became a eunuch.


    Not long after the surgery waspleted, the Wagner family members took him back and prepared


    private doctors for him.


    Looking at Dn who was lying on a bed, the Wagner family master, Kane Wagner balled his fists tightly


    with a stormy expression.


    “How dare the bastard do this to my son?! Doesn’t he know that our family is not one to be trifled with?”


    Kane held his fists so tightly and gritted his teeth tightly.


    “A peculiar incident, it is. Although we’re a third-ss aristocratic family, those who know our situation


    won’t wish to provoke us; this applies to even second-ss aristocratic families. After all, everybody


    knows that Madames from a very strong family!” Another Wagner family’s elder thought about it and


    muttered in confusion.


    “That bastard’s got guts. I only have one son, and the Wagner family only has one son too. He dared


    abolish my son and made him into a eunuch! Does he want the Wagner family to end with Dn?”


    Louisa was also extremely afraid. The current master of the Wagner family, Kane was already old, and


    there was no way for them to bear another child.


    The Wagner family only had one lone seedling, yet something so unfortunate happened to him. It was


    impossible for the Wagners to not be furious.


    Chapter 985 “Mother, Father… A guy named jackie White did this to me. He stays at Elegant Vi Park


    and has upied about twenty vis there. jackie lives there with the others,” sobbed Dn to his


    parents,menting his fate. “Mother, Father, you have to avenge me. I… I can’t be a normal man for the


    rest of my life. I rather die than live like this!”


    “Son, you mustn’t have such suicidal thoughts. Don’t worry—we’ll definitely avenge you,” assured Kane.


    Louisa, meanwhile,mented, “Ask the seven-star King of War, Walter Lamington toe here.


    Doesn’t he owe us a favor? It’s time for him to return that favor. It’d be easy for a seven-star King of War


    to destroy a small power we’ve never heard of.”


    To that, Dn quickly responded, “Mother, don’t ask Walter toe over—that jackie guy is too much. I


    brought Walter with me when I went to him because that guy killed many of our masters. I never, ever


    thought Walter would fail to contend against jackie, and I think he’s dead from jackie’s sword attack!”


    “What?!” All the Wagner family members inhaled sharply, wondering if they heard wrongly. They never


    expected that Dn had already brought Walter to jackie yet failed to win against him.


    “If Walter can’t even beat that guy, none of the masters from our family can defeat him,” came the


    comment of one of the Wagners’ elders.


    “That’s right. Walter is a seven-star King of War and has extremely strongbat capabilities. If such a


    strong fighter can’t take him down, we’d fail no matter how many bodyguards we send over!” eximed


    another middle-aged man.


    Kane’s facial expression grew increasingly dark. He thought about it and looked at Louisa. “Honey, we’ve


    never asked your parents for help all these years, and our rtionship with them is rather good these


    days. Although they still look down on us, they allowed us to go back for meals during New Years’. So…”


    Louisa nodded. “I know what you’re trying to say. I didn’t want to rely on them or beg them previously


    with hopes that we can grow stronger, but for the sake of our son, I’ll call on them.”


    Kane stressed once again, “Our opponent this time is so powerful that even a seven-star King of War


    failed to eliminate him. I’m afraid that our opponent’sbat prowess isparable to an eight-star King


    of War, and it’ll be difficult to fight such a strong master!”


    “That’s immensely troublesome,” spoke the serious Louisa. “If that’s the case, we can only ask my father


    to send more people, and they gotta be extraordinarily strong too.”


    Both Kane and Louisa asked Dn to take a rest after they finished their discussion. Louisa exited the


    room and quickly called her parents.


    Louisa’s parents only had a daughter and a grandson.


    Louisa’s parents were extremely angry when they heard what happened. After they assessed the


    situation, they personally brought several hundred masters from the Lowe family to avenge their


    grandson.


    Kane was relieved when he knew both his parents-inw wereing over. jackie and hispany


    were guaranteed goners with so many mastersing over.


    They believed that they would be able to avenge their son.


    Afraid that jackie and the others would escape, the Wagner family sent many bodyguards to spy on


    them. The bodyguards were ready to report to Kane at any time.


    Chapter 986 “There’s trouble, Master. I realized that there’s someone monitoring our movements around


    the house!”


    Walter came before jackie the next day, reporting with a solemn expression.


    jackie, who was drinking tea in the garden, did not seem to care. He gave a wan smile. “Then who do


    you think it is?” he asked.


    “It must be from the Wagner family. They were afraid that we would take off. But they didn’t attack us


    because they don’t have proper fighters in their family. They are a third-ss aristocratic family after all.


    Aside from me, their best fighters are those who are the same level as a three-star King of War. That’s


    why they don’t dare to attack!


    “As for the fighter from the Lowe family, it’ll take him at least a day to rush over from Gin City. That’s why


    the Wagner family is keeping tabs on us, they’re afraid that we’ll run away!”


    After Walter said all that, he asked jackie, “What should we do now, Master?”


    jackie gestured for him to sit down. “Skyler had already told me about this,” he said slowly. “There’s


    nothing to be afraid of. We just won’t go out for these two days and wait for them toe. Don’t worry,


    we won’t have to run away. It’ll be fine so long as we stay put!”


    “All right!”


    Walter nodded his head. He felt as though the longer he knew jackie, the less he knew about the man.


    He only learned that Skyler was an eight-star King of War after he came in, yet a man of his status was


    willing to stay by jackie’s side—willing to fight for jackie. The b*stard was probably far stronger than a


    nine-star King of War or was at least as strong as one.


    Only, there was no way that there were no rumors about someone as frighteningly strong as him, and


    this made Walter confused. Someone like him would have a powerful presence in Gin City, what more a


    ce like Swallow City.


    At that moment, the Chaffman family quickly got the news.


    One of the men came before Master Chaffman. “Master, we heard that jackie and his family were not


    from our city,” he said. “They’re probably from another city, but we don’t know which one. Still, they must


    havee from outside. We also did some investigations. He provoked the Wagner family recently, and


    now their young master is rendered infertile!”


    “Really? Dn had been rendered infertile by jackie?”


    Master Chaffman was slightly taken aback after he heard that. “That punk is bold. Not only is he not


    afraid of us, he actually dared to do something like that to Young Master Wagner…”


    Peace, who was standing to the side, loosened a small breath of relief as he heard this. He had been


    fortunate; if jackie had been in a bad mood the other day and rendered him infertile as well in a fit of


    recklessness, he would never see the light of day again.


    However, Peace quickly thought of something, and his eyes brightened. “Eh, doesn’t the Wagner family


    have a seven-star King of War? Will they find trouble with jackie?”


    After he said that, his expression darkened. “Doesn’t seem probable though. There’s an eight-star King


    of War in that punk’s house. Even if the Wagner family send their King of War over, he still wouldn’t be a


    match!”


    “Master Wagner had sent that seven-star King of War over. I heard that he received a fatal stab wound.


    He’s most likely dead!”


    Chapter 987 The man who made the report could not help but twist his lips into a bitter smile. A fighter as


    strong as that would have a significant presence, and plenty of people would be pandering to him. Yet he


    had been killed by that punk.


    “Hold on. Was the seven-star King of War killed by the eight-star King of War from the White family, or


    someone else?”


    Peace quickly thought of something and asked hurriedly.


    “He was killed by jackie White!”


    The man replied.


    When they heard this, Peace exchanged a nce with his father. They both took a sharp intake of


    breath. jackie’s fighting prowess must be no joke. Luckily they had not acted rashly. His fighting ability as


    well as that King of War’s were terrifying enough, never mind the masked woman. The woman seemed


    like she was no pushover as well.


    “ jackie is not easy to deal with. Thank God we didn’t act rashly!”


    The old master of the Chaffman family considered the situation, then he spoke, “The Wagner family has


    only one son, and he’s infertile now—it’s a great loss to them. There has not been a child from the


    Wagner family for so many years, and now they probably won’t have a next-generation. That’s why the


    Wagner family will definitely avenge their son. We just need to stand by and watch!”


    “Mmhmm. Master Wagner’s wife is from the Lowe family, who happens to be a significant secret


    powerhouse in Gin City. They’ll definitely bring plenty of skilled fighters. We just don’t know if the White


    family will choose to run away if they find out that the Wagner family is out for them!”


    Master Chaffman added after a moment of silence.


    “If everything goes well, the people from the Lowe family will be arriving by tomorrow morning. We can


    go over tomorrow to survey the situation from afar in the pretense of going out shopping. I’m sure that


    jackie and his men are done for this time.”


    Old Master Chaffman’s lips curved into a cold smile. “After all, Old Master Lowe and his wife are as


    strong as nine-star Kings of War. And they have plenty of fighters aside from themselves. There are


    probably nearly a hundred people who have the strength of a King of War.”


    “Excellent. We won’t need to spare a single man like this, and we’ll get to witness jackie being brought to


    his knees. F*ck. I’ll definitely record the entire thing in secret tomorrow for posterity!”


    Peace’s heart leaped in delight after he heard all this. He could not kill jackie himself, but the idea that he


    would be able to see that man die, made him excited all the same.


    However, the only thing he would regret was the two beautiful women jackie had, whose looks were out


    of this world. He would never get the chance to bed them after this.


    Young Master Chaffman never gave up a woman he wanted. Usually, cash was enough to buy them over


    —so long as he gave enough, they would dly throw themselves into his arms.


    He never thought that he would fail so miserably this time. It was probably the worst failure he had ever


    experienced in his entire life.


    Chapter 988


    The next morning, the Chaffman family set out early to a street that was near to jackie and his family’s


    house. They quickly found themselves seats at a snack shop, watching the vi before them as they ate.


    Anticipation swelled within Peace. He kept staring at the vi’s entrance, now free of chaos. He was well


    aware that the peace was temporary—the calm before the storm.


    After the clock hit ten, a few men from the Wagner family came over, along with over 200 fighters from


    Gin City.


    “They’re here, they’re here. Quick! Inform the master!”


    The two bodyguards noticed the retinue from afar and immediately cried out, running.


    jackie made everyone else hide in the house. He took Lana, Skyler, Walter, Pendragon, Dennis, and a


    few dozen other men to the empty space before the vi’s gates, waiting for the enemy to arrive.


    “I never thought you’d be here waiting for us!”


    Master Wagner burst intoughter when he saw this.


    “Are you the b*stard who dared to do something like that to my grandson? Do you have a death wish?”


    There was an old man whose hair had gonepletely white. He pped a hand against the head of


    the stone lion at the entrance, which was at least half as tall as a man.


    A sharp crack rang out, and that frightening stone lion broke apart, shattering into little pieces.


    “What!”


    Walter could not help but eximed when he saw that. The old man looked like he was giving a light


    p, but there was so much strength in his hand. It seemed that he was an extremely formidable fighter.


    “How are you still alive, Walter?”


    Kane huffed after he noticed Walter’s presence, “Why are you standing on their side? Are you telling me


    that you wish to make an enemy out of the Wagner family?”


    “B*stard! You traitorous snake!”


    Louisa grew even more furious and snarled at Walter.


    Walter was angry as well after he heard that. “What are you talking about, Kane Wagner? Do you wish


    for me to die?” he snapped. “I owed the Wagner family debt, and now that I’ve cleared my debt, I don’t


    owe you anything anymore. I didn’t sell myself to you. It’s my choice to follow jackie White!”


    “Fine. You asked for it, Walter. You can’t me us for anything that happens since you have a death


    wish!”


    Louisa gave a cold smile. “It seems like you’re not aware of just how strong my family is. We have two


    fighters who are as strong as nine-star Kings of War, and there are nearly a hundred men who have the


    strength of Kings of War. How are you going to beat all of us?”


    “If that’s what you say, Walter, it seems like we’ll just have to get rid of you!”


    Kane also huffed at Walter.


    “Since I’ve already decided to follow Master jackie, I’ve set aside my fear of death long ago.”


    Walter lifted his chin, speaking without an ounce of care.


    “I’ll kill this traitor first!”


    The old man from the Lowe family clenched his fists. He stamped a foot against the ground and


    launched himself straight at Walter.


    “No way you’ll kill one of my men without me saying so!”


    jackie shed a mirthless smile and clenched his fist. He mmed a foot against the ground and rushed


    out.


    “Since you’re so eager to die, I’ll be happy to oblige!”


    The old man gave a wry smile. Bloodlust surged in his gaze as he saw jackie rushing forward. He threw


    a fist toward the younger man.


    “Back at you!”


    In the face of his opponent’s powerful strike, jackie threw out his own fist without hesitation, and their


    attacks shed.


    Chapter 989


    A powerful force erupted, and a frightening wave of energy rushed out from the fist, a result of a


    shockwave.


    “What!”


    The old man quickly sensed the terrifying amount of strength in jackie’s fist. Terror filled his eyes.


    He flew a few meters back before stopping. Blood spat out of his mouth.


    “Dad!”


    Louisa cried out when she saw that the old man was injured, not believing the sight before her.


    Her father was as strong as a nine-star King of War. Nearly everyone deferred to him in Gin City, yet he


    was injured by just that one blow from the punk.


    “I’ll forget everything that happened if all of you leave now. But if you don’t, and if you keep causing


    trouble, don’t me me for being ruthless!”


    jackieced his fingers behind his back, speaking in a lofty tone.


    “What should we do? This punk…”


    The old woman immediately stepped forward and asked the old man.


    “I’m fine. It’s just that he has a good arm!”


    The old man red at jackie and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth. “It shouldn’t be a problem


    for us to kill them, considering our numbers,” he said. “This punk just wants to scare us off!”


    The old woman nodded her head. “I think so too. And he’s even giving us a chance. He wouldn’t be


    saying anything of that sort if he truly had the ability. He’s afraid to get into a fight with us!”


    “That’s right. He must have thrown all of his strength into that one punch earlier, and Dad hadn’t


    expected him to be so strong, so he didn’t use his full strength! He only got injured because he


    underestimated that punk!”


    Louisa nodded her head as well, thinking that her parents’ deduction made sense.


    “Seems like you chose death!”


    jackie chuckled and spoke in a cold voice after he heard their discussion.


    “Did you really think I was frightened? Did you think you could scare us?”


    The old man chuckled. He flipped his palm, and a sword appeared in his grip. “You’re strong, but you


    might not necessarily know how to use sword aura!”


    The old woman flipped her palm as well, another sword appearing in her grip. “Don’t forget, you little


    brat, that both of us are as strong as nine-star Kings of War,” she said, a cold smile on her lips. “Can you


    beat the two of us alone? Besides, out of the 200 odd men we have here, almost a hundred are as


    strong as Kings of War. How can you hope to match us?”


    “That’s right. They can’t beat us with the few people they have now!”


    A young man stood up, a sword in his hand. He hollered with a ferocious bite to his tone.


    “Then why don’t you try us?”


    Lana chuckled and flipped her palm. A purple sword appeared in her grip.


    “That sword!”


    Walter took a sharp intake of breath when he saw the sword. Was that not the weapon of choice of Lana


    Zechs, the Goddess of War? And this masked woman was named Lana as well.


    He had not thought much about it before, thinking that they happened to share the same name. Now


    only did he realize that the masked woman was, in fact, Lana Zechs.


    He had heard long ago that she was a beauty as well. Why did he not put two and two together?


    He looked at jackie. Walter grew even more excited. There was only one man who could make the


    Goddess of War follow him—and that was the Supreme Warrior!


    Chapter 990


    Walter was extremely excited when the idea appeared in his head— jackie, the Supreme Warrior! No


    one had ever seen his face before, and even his name was not known. Yet he had the chance to meet


    the Supreme Warrior, to witness his skills and fight alongside him.


    He would have never dreamed of something like that, but now he was in such close proximity with the


    Supreme Warrior.


    If jackie was truly the Supreme Warrior, he would be able to take out all these people in front of him with


    ease. Plus, he would not need to even use his full strength—it would be as easy as breathing for him.


    However, he knew that the Supreme Warrior was someone who liked to keep a low profile. It was likely


    the reason why he had kept his identity a secret in the first ce. No one knew his name all this while,


    although he had contributed greatly to the nation.


    “Walter, why are you staring into space?”


    Skyler noticed that Walter was staring at jackie, and palpable excitement shed in the man’s eyes, so


    he chided the younger man.


    “Oh. I’m sorry!”


    Walter snapped back into his senses and quickly flipped his palm, taking out his own sword.


    “Go for the head first!”


    The old man attacked jackie first, shing his sword.


    He clearly had good technique. The sword aura was practically a solid object, emanating a sense of


    sheer ruthlessness. The attack was amplified tenfold from the technique alone.


    “Hmph!”


    In the face of this attack, jackie simply shed a wan smile. He flung his hand outward, and another shot


    of sword aura forth.


    The old woman was no slouch either. She shed an air de toward jackie, just as frightening as her


    husband’s.


    jackie threw out another air de toward her.


    He was fast, but the strength of the des was notpromised at all. They were just as sharp, just as


    fierce—and they reached a good few meters before they finally dissipated. It was a powerful attack.


    Soon enough, jackie’s air des shed with the couple’s. The resulting shockwave sent ripples that


    even shook the earth. A frightening crash rang out at the contact point, as though thunder were pping


    right before them.


    “They’re fighting. Fantastic!”


    In the distance, Peace and the others were extremely excited when they saw the fight breaking out.


    jackie would be done for this time.


    Unfortunately, he quickly noticed that the old couple’s attacks were quickly blocked by jackie’s


    counterattack. They even formed aftershocks, and the excessive energy bounced back toward the old


    couple.


    The old man and the old woman flew backward, their faces as pale as death.


    On Lana’s side, there were no men who were a match for her. She threw a few air des out, and plenty


    of her opponents fell onto the ground, dead.


    “No way!”


    The old man and woman were so shocked at the sight that all color leeched from their cheeks. There


    had been quite a few fighters who were as strong as five or six-star Kings of War, and they had all been


    killed by that masked woman. They did not even have the chance to fight back against someone as


    strong as that.


    “Die!”


    Skyler and Walter sprang into action after seeing so many fighters being killed. Adrenaline filling their


    veins, they sprang forth into the array.


    “No way. The four of them are so strong!”


    Chapter 991


    The old couple was even more frightened when they saw their men falling one by one around them. Now


    they finally understood that jackie had truly been giving them a chance to live.


    Still, it was toote for regrets.


    “Die!”


    In a sh, jackie appeared between the old couple, sweeping his sword in a circr motion. The action


    formed a frightening air de; it caught the light in a furious glint.


    The old couple and nearly ten of the Lowe family’s fighters were all caught within the attack’s radius.


    All of them flew backward andnded on the ground with heavy thumps, no longer breathing.


    “Dad! Mom!”


    Louisa released a shriek when she saw her parents killed so easily. Only now did she realize that it was


    a foolish decision to bring her parents along to exact revenge. Not only did she not get her revenge, but


    she also led them to their deaths.


    In a moment, nearly a hundred of their men had died; only half were left.


    “No–no way!”


    Some of the Lowe family’s fighters shook their heads vigorously. They were terrified at the sight of the


    corpses strewn all over the ground.


    “Run!”


    jackie shed another two air des, and over a dozen men fell to the ground. Someone could not take


    it anymore, and wheeled around and sprinted off.


    Lana and the others took a few steps forward and killed more fighters.


    Kane and Louisa were killed as well. Only about a dozen men were left at the end, escaping with every


    inch of their remaining strength. They were only able to live because jackie and the others did not go


    after them.


    On the other entrance, plenty of people from the housing estate had sneaked over to watch the


    commotion. The fight had caused a huge ruckus and attracted their attention.


    Among the crowd, ke Knight and Tiana Scott heaved sighs of relief when they saw that jackie had


    clenched victory.


    They had never thought that the Lowe family would find them so quickly—and they certainly had never


    expected that jackie and his fighters were so strong. They had killed so many fighters from the Lowe


    family in a sh.


    The Lowe family was powerful, and they had plenty of people. However, they had mustered all their


    troops for this, and so many of them had died. The Lowe family would be reduced into nothing now.


    Furthermore, the Lowe family’s enemies would definitely take the chance to take revenge once the news


    reached Gin City,pletely destroying the Lowe family.


    Of course, the Wagner family was done for as well. The head couple of the Wagner family, as well as a


    few of their elders, had all died here. The Wagner family would be no more.


    “No way. The Lowe family had so many fighters, and they were all killed? And only a few bodyguards


    from jackie’s side were injured, but none of them died. Is this how it’s all ending?”


    Peace wondered if this was all a dream as he watched everything from afar.


    He nced at his grandfather and father, who was sitting next to him. Their expressions were that of


    utter shock as well.


    “He–he’s too strong!”


    Old Man Chaffman wiped ayer of sweat filming at his forehead. “We can’t afford to provoke him,” he


    told his son. “Remember this, do not provoke them no matter what!”


    “With these few men, they don’t have to be afraid of even a first-ss aristocratic family in the City of


    Martial Arts,” Master Chaffman added, “what more a second-ss aristocratic family!”


    Chapter 992


    “Take care of the bodies!”


    jackie’s lips twisted into a bitter smile when he saw the bodies all over the ground. He had wanted to find


    the dragon scale without creating a ruckus, and he had never wanted to cause trouble in the first ce.


    He never thought that it would end up like this.


    The Wagner family was dead. Furthermore, plenty of fighters from Gin City had died there as well. It


    seemed that plenty of powerful families from Swallow City would have their eyes on him and his family


    now.


    However, now that he thought about it, it might not be a bad thing after all. At least the families who had


    set up a trap for him would be more cautious of him after this incident.


    “I was so scared with so many peopleing at once. Thank God all of you are strong. We would have


    died otherwise!”


    Fiona and the others emerged from the house as they saw that the bodyguards were cleaning up the


    bodies.


    Fiona patted her chest. It was evident that she was still recovering from the shock.


    “You were amazing, dad. I want to be as strong as you when I grow up!”


    Kylie ran over, staring at jackie with admiration, her eyesrge and round and beautiful.


    jackie was speechless for a moment at the sight. “Why did you allow Kylie toe?” he said to Fiona


    and the others. “We haven’t even finished cleaning up here. A child shouldn’t be seeing all this!”


    “What’s wrong with that? Didn’t you yourself say that this was the City of Martial Arts, where plenty of


    families are in a constant tussle of power, with some rising to eminence and others fading into obscurity?


    Plenty of people die every day. It’s normal. How can you expect her to face hardships in life if she’s never


    experienced it herself?”


    Surprisingly, Fiona replied, rolling her eyes at jackie.


    He was speechless and did not know whether tough or cry.


    “that does make sense. And she’s not the least bit afraid! Kylie is so young, but she’s so wise!”


    Skylerughed and could not help but yfully pinch Kylie’s cheek.


    Ever since jackie hade back, everyone was able to have full meals and wear nice clothes. Now,


    Kylie had put on some weight, her cheeks were pinchable than before. She had also turned fairer and


    was growing more adorable by the day, stealing the hearts of more and more people.


    “Hmph. Basically, I want to be as strong as you when I grow up!”


    Kylie harrumphed and folded her arms across her chest, puffing herself to make herself look bigger.


    Everyone could not help but smile at her antics.


    Soon enough, Caleb and the others from the Quinton family caught wind of what had happened.


    Hunter was shocked when he heard this. “My goodness. They had two fighters who were as strong as


    nine-star Kings of War, and they were all killed. How can they be so strong! Luckily we felt that


    something was off and did not go looking for trouble. We would all be killed otherwise!”


    “That’s right. They’re all so strong. Who knew that there were four skilled fighters among them—


    especially jackie. I heard that he had killed the two fighters who were as strong as nine-star Kings of War.


    Furthermore, he did not do so much as waste a single breath!”


    Although they knew of the situation for a few hours now, Caleb was still reeling from shock.


    The Wagner family was far stronger than the Quinton family. They were a true third-ss aristocratic


    family, and they were gone, just like that. The Lowe family, meanwhile, was a powerful underground


    family from Gin City, and they too were wiped out in a blink of an eye.


    Chapter 993


    Soon enough, this news spread to every corner of the City of Martial Arts—Swallow City.


    “Pa, Ma, Grandpa, Grandma, I—I’ll avenge you…”


    On the other hand, outside of Swallow City, Dn brought a few bodyguards with him, heading toward


    the direction of Gin City in a car.


    After three days, Lana came before jackie. Joy radiated through Lana that her face could hardly contain


    her happiness.


    “Master, I have great news! We finally have news about the Dragon scale!”


    Lana stared at jackie with her eyes filled with excitement and her tone cheerful. “There is a huge vi


    outside this City of Martial Arts, and I heard that a secret auction will be held in that huge vi tomorrow


    night. A filthy rich hidden figure, who has secretly contacted quite a few rich families in the city, intended


    to gather all the prominent families and businessmen to attend the auction they organized. There’s only


    one item to be auctioned and that is the Dragon Scale!”


    “Hmmm. Is that so? What do you think about this matter then?”


    jackie’s brows knitted as he queried.


    “In my opinion, as long as the problem can be solved with money, then it’s not a problem. Others


    probably think that the Dragon scale is something rare and worthy to be kept in their private museum for


    collection. They’re just curious!”


    Lana paused for a while and gave this matter a further thought, then she continued, “So, that means the


    Dragon scale doesn’t really mean much to them hence they won’t spend so much money bidding for it!”


    Lana halted again before continuing, “Therefore, I think we can spend some money and bid for it!”


    jackie bobbed his head as he was listening to Lana’s analysis. “Alright then. I’ll go with you tomorrow and


    have a look. But since it’s a secret auction and the other party invited others under the table, I don’t think


    it’d be easy for us to get in, right?”


    Lana nodded. “Yup, indeed. The other party scanned through the list and only invited those who are


    capable to participate. The public can’t join. You must have their invitation card to enter the secret


    auction. Otherwise, it’s impossible to get it!”


    “Hmmm… It looks like the only way to get into that auction is to get hold of somebody’s invitation card


    then!”


    After a moment of silence, jackie finally opened his mouth and suggested.


    “I have a n in mind. Also, I heard that an invitation card allows only two person to enter, and some


    families have more than one card; they have two or three invitation cards! Those families can have four


    to six members to go to this secret auction. My n is this, we can approach one of these families and


    buy an invitation card from them, what do you think?”


    Lana smiled gently. She had done her homework well before approaching jackie about this matter.


    “Sounds like a good n!”


    jackie chuckled.


    “It just so happens that I managed to find out that the Chaffman family has two such invitation cards.


    Let’s go to them and buy the card from them, how about that?”


    Lana suggested.


    “Buy? No way. Peace Chaffman tried to hit on you and Selena a couple of times. So, I’d not spend a


    single penny on his card. I’d just ask him to give us one!”


    jackie chortled then he looked at the time. “It’ste, let’s go now. We will first get the invitation card and


    then I’ll go to the vi tomorrow with others.”


    jackie and Lana immediately drove toward the direction of the huge vi where the Chaffmans lived.


    “Master, Master, it’s bad! That guy ising, That guy ising!”


    One of the bodyguards who was on duty at the gate ran into the house and reported loudly when the


    Chaffmans were having their dinner.


    Chapter 994


    “What guy? Which guy?”


    The head of the Chaffman family yelled at the bodyguard who rushed into the dining room. He was


    having a good time drinking with the family and was abruptly disturbed. He naturally felt a flicker of


    irritation and his forehead puckered.


    “The guy—the guy, jackie… Didn’t we witness them kill a lot of people from the Wagner family and the


    Lowe family the other day? The guy from that day came here with the woman in a mask!”


    The bodyguard’s voice trembled. He was once proud of being the bodyguard of the Chaffman family. He


    had a lot of confidence in the Chaffman because, inmon circumstances, nobody dared to offend


    such a prominent and powerful family which was why Young Master Chaffman was so arrogant and


    snobbish.


    However, the two people who came to the Chaffman’s residence today sent chills down his spine; he


    was weighed down by dread. This was because the two’sbat prowess was too terrifying. If he had


    not known all the names of the Nine Great Gods of War, he would have suspected jackie to be one of


    them!


    “What the heck? Why are those two here?”


    The head of Chaffman was startled at the news that he shot up from the chair. He was sober all of the


    sudden that he stopped feeling tipsy or drunk.


    “Dad, are they here to seek revenge? But, but, didn’t they already beat me upst time? Don’t tell me


    he’s here for his woman again!”


    Peace had been behaving welltely and had not been fooling around. But now after hearing that jackie


    hade to his house with Lana, his face went white in an instant and his hands turned cold and


    mmy.


    Old Master Chaffman uttered after thinking for a while, “It’s highly unlikely they came here for that matter,


    if so, he would havee here two days ago, why now? Besides, the Chaffman family is not an ordinary


    family, we have so many elite fighters, hence if they were here for trouble, why only the two of them?


    Why didn’t they gather the other four skilled fighters?


    The head of the Chaffman family, on the other hand, was worried beyond words. “Pa, what do you know?


    Only two of them came which means they know that they’re able to defeat us with just the two of them. If


    that’s the case, don’t you think it’s more petrifying?” The head of Chaffman gulped loudly and then


    continued, “Have you not seen with your own eyes that day? jackie possessed greaterbat prowess


    than the old man, and the old woman of Lowe family did! The old couple of the Lowe family is on par with


    a nine-star King of War! But what happened in the end? Both were killed by jackie! Now, you tell me, how


    terrifying jackie is?”


    The corner of the Old Master Chaffman’s mouth twitched uncontrobly at the information.


    However, in the end, he still shook his head to disagree. “No, if they’re looking for trouble, they would


    have juste in and killed all of us. Why are they waiting outside and allowing the bodyguard toe


    in and report?”


    Old Master Chaffman then wheeled his head and faced the bodyguard. “Go out and let the two in.


    Remember, you must be polite and respectful when you speak to them, understand?”


    “Yes, Sir!”


    The bodyguard bowed and went off. They were two strong people; how could he disrespect them? He


    would not even know how and when he died if he really did offend them. The bodyguard thought to


    himself.


    Soon, jackie and Lana were brought to the Chaffman family by the bodyguard.


    “Hey, my old friend, jackie! I truly apologize for my carelessness that I didn’te to greet you. I didn’t


    know you wereing, I’m truly sorry!”


    Master Chaffman studied the two and bowed before them while apologizing. Then he quickly turned to


    one of the servants andmanded, “Why are you still standing there? Go get new tes and bowls!


    They will join us for dinner and a couple of drinks! I’ll drink tonight with these strong and powerful


    people!”


    “Oh, Master Chaffman, stop it, you’re being too kind! We’re not strong nor powerful!”


    jackie chuckled and bowed to greet the other party as well.


    “No, my friend, you’re being too modest! The episode that day has spread all over the City of Martial


    Arts, or at least the families in this vicinity are all aware of it!”


    Chapter 995


    Old Master Chaffman chuckled with a wide grin on his face.


    jackie did not bother with all the formality and went straight into the topic. “Old Master Chaffman, I’m here


    for some matter. As for dinner and drinking, I don’t think it’s necessary. After all, I had some unpleasant


    moments with your grandson before. So I don’t think I can enjoy the dinner or drinking at all!”


    “It’s a misunderstanding! It’s all a misunderstanding!”


    Peace immediately chimed in with an awkward smile. “That incident was purely a misunderstanding. I


    was ignorant and rude, that’s why it happened. But I really have to say this, that the two Mrs. Whites are


    truly beauties. jackie, you’re blessed to have both of them as your wives. I’m envious!”


    jackie’s face immediately sank at hisments. He retorted with a cold but controlled voice, “Peace


    Chaffman, first of all, don’t call me jackie and don’t you dare look at my wife anymore. For trash like you,


    I don’t want to have any kind of rtionship with you!”


    jackie did not even spare the other party’s face at all, even when the other party was from a prominent


    second-ss family in Swallow City. Peace’s face turned red; he was embarrassed that he could not wait


    to find a crack in the ground and hide his head into it!


    Lana—who was standing beside jackie—listened to the exchange and her face was immediately kissed


    pink. She did not know that she would be mistaken as jackie’s wife. How blessed was this?


    “I’ll be straightforward. I’m here for something serious. I heard that tomorrow night, you’re going to attend


    an auction held by some anonymous organization, right?”


    jackie fixed his res at the Chaffmans.


    The head of the Chaffman family nodded in return. “Yes, you’re right. We only received the invitationst


    night, I didn’t expect you to know about it so soon. It seems that nothing can be hidden from you, Mr.


    White!”


    “I’m merely a nobody who just moved to Swallow City not long ago. How could Ipare myself with a


    second-ss family like yours?”


    jackie chortled then added, “My motive today is very simple. I know that you have two invitation cards for


    that auction, how about giving one of those to me? I don’t need two, one is enough. It shouldn’t be a


    problem, right?”


    “Wow, Mr. White is interested in the Dragon scale? I didn’t see thating. Well. No problem, we have


    two cards, and it’s fine to share one with you!”


    Master Chaffman flipped his palm and an invitation card suddenly appeared on his hand. He then


    handed it to jackie.


    “Master Chaffman, such a pronto! You indeed possessed the characteristics of the family head! I thank


    you for the card. Also, I hope that Master Chaffman and the others will keep this as a secret!”


    “Now, may we excuse ourselves!” jackie let out a warmugh, bowed, and thanked Master Chaffman


    before the two left the residence.


    “Wow, I didn’t expect them to give us the card so easily! It seems like Master Chaffman is not indecisive!”


    After leaving the Chaffman’s residence, on the way back, Lana praised Master Chaffman from the


    bottom of her heart.


    jackie, however, smiled dryly. “They’re not fools. That day during the battle with the Lowe and the


    Wagner family, I noticed their presence; they were watching the fight from afar, from the other side of the


    store. Although the Chaffman owned a lot of elite fighters, deep inside they know that even if they’ve


    gathered all these strong fighters, they wouldn’t stand a chance against us!”


    “What? They were watching us? I didn’t expect that!”


    Lana dazed.


    Chapter 996


    “Strange, jackie came here specifically to ask for the invitation card. This means that this guy is


    interested in the Dragon scale!”


    As soon as the two left, Master Chaffman could not help but mutter aloud, “Now we only have one card


    left, so only two of us are able to go to the auction tomorrow. We’re fortunate that jackie did not ask for


    both cards!”


    “But, how did jackie know about this? They’re not ordinary people, aren’t they?”


    Peace’s brows snapped together, with a puzzled look on his face. “The secret organization sent us the


    invitation cards. How did he find out about this? This means that the other party must have been


    searching and gathering information about the Dragon scale. Otherwise, how is it possible for jackie to


    know about the auction so quickly?”


    “This is so weird! Why would he be so interested in the Dragon scale? While we’re still specting


    whether this Dragon scale is a real thing or not, they’ve already investigated it thoroughly. They must


    have interest in it a long time ago!”


    Old Master Chaffman, too, felt that jackie’s interest in the Dragon scale was certainly not on a whim.


    Otherwise, he would not havee to them specifically for the invitation card!


    “Hmmm…they just moved here not too long ago. Oh, now I see it! Not too long ago, there was news


    about the Dragon Scale and then after there was no news about the Dragon Scale at all. Nobody knows


    anything about it. But jackie and the others moved here…hmm… they must have heard the news and


    came here for the Dragon scale!”


    Suddenly, Peace understood the situation as though some wise spirits possessed his body. “We’ve never


    heard about jackie and others before; they must havee here for the Dragon scale. And since they’re


    from the other cities and they came here for the Dragon scale, what does this mean? This means that


    this Dragon scale is real! Since it is real, there might really be a dragon in this world!”


    “What? Dragon is real?”


    Old Master Chaffman was startled at the information that his eyes widened. “This thing has always been


    a legend, none of us have seen it. I initially thought that this secret auction about the Dragon Scale is a


    fraud to lure us and cheat our money. But if our guesses are right, this means that the Dragon scale is


    real! There’s really such a thing in this world!”


    “Also, Pa, on the invitation card, it writes that this Dragon scale possesses a miraculous effect, if you


    were to soak it in tea and drink it every day, you can live longer! It’s not one or two years longer but


    decades! If the Dragon scale really exists, doesn’t that mean that the miraculous effect is real too?”


    Master Chaffman soon thought of something and excitement suddenly glowed brightly on his face.


    Old Master Chaffman’s eyes, too, revealed signs of excitement after hearing the miraculous effect of


    dragon scale. “If this is true, then we must try to bid for this item tomorrow! After all, auctions are all


    about money! It’s a wealthpetition!”


    Master Chaffman bobbed his head in agreement. “Yes, a lot of prominent families must be thinking that


    there is no such thing as dragon scale, not to mention its miraculous effect that was written on the card.


    They must be thinking that it’s fake and a fraud. And some of them merely want to get it as a collection.


    So, they certainly wouldn’t and cannot afford to spend so much on it. In that sense, our chances to get


    the Dragon scale is incredibly high!”


    “I’m afraid it’s not that easy!”


    To everyone’s surprise, Peace—who was drinking silently at the side—suddenly interrupted with a loud


    laugh. “If jackie and his men came here all the way from other cities solely for this Dragon scale, then


    they are determined to get it. Hence, jackie will definitelypete fiercely with us in the auction!”


    “Humph! This is an auction, the only thing that matters is money, and not fighting ability. So, what are you


    afraid of? As long as we have money and the other party doesn’t, then it’ll be our show!”


    Old Master Chaffman could not wait to get the dragon scale. It would be wonderful if he could live a few


    more decades!


    “What I fear is even if we bid for the Dragon scale and got it in the end, the other party wille and


    seize it. In that case, we’re no match for him!”


    Peace let out a dry smile. “The only families that are not afraid of him could only be some first-ss


    families in this city, I guess!”


    Old Master Chaffman was rendered speechless. What Peace said was true; if they were to get the


    dragon scale sessfully in the auction, and jackie came and asked for it, they would have no choice


    but hand it over to jackie.


    Chapter 997


    The next day, some of the families who were invited to this secret auction were not interested at all in the


    dragon scale, and some even thought that it was a fraud. Hence, quite a number of those prominent


    families did not go to the huge vi outside the city.


    But most of the invited families wanted to find out the truth of dragon scale; they brought a few


    bodyguards with them and went to the huge vi outside the city.


    More and more people were gathered outside the vi, however, the owner of the vi did not open the


    gates, instead, the owner made them wait outside the vi.


    “Who the heck organized this auction? How could the organizer make us all wait outside and not even


    give us a ce to sit! How arrogant!”


    An old man from the crowd huffed angrily.


    “Damn right! The organizer only gave us three invitation cards, how are my bodyguards going to get in?


    Only six of us can get in!”


    Another middle-aged man—who stood beside the old man—could not help but cursed out loud. He


    brought tons of bodyguards with him to here, only to find out the rules. This made him upset.


    “Hey, Young Master Norton, look over there! Can you see that beauty? I’ve never met her before, isn’t


    she attractive?”


    On the other side of the crowd, there were a few rich young masters gathered together, chilling and


    smoking cigarettes. One of them noticed Lana in the crowd and his eyes fixated on her, never turning


    away.


    Young Master Norton looked at the direction pointed by his friend; his eyes brightened up. “Holy f*ck!


    That chick’s body is so damn amazing! Look at the slender yet curvy thighs. I bet all men would be head


    over heels for her!”


    “Young Master Norton, you may not have met that woman and man yet but they’re not someone you


    should mess with. Have you heard of the news where all the members of the Lowe family and the


    Wagner family were murdered? You must’ve heard about it, right? They’re the ones who did it!”


    One of the young masters chortled bitterly as he uttered to the other young masters.


    “It looks like she’s a thorny rose—a beautiful woman who can’t be touched!”


    After hearing the news, Young Master Norton could not help but mock with a bitterugh. He was a


    young master of a first-ss aristocratic family, so naturally many pretty women would offer themselves


    to him as though he was a ma that attracted women effortlessly. However, since he had met so


    many pretty women,mon pretty women would not catch his eyes at all; his aesthetic taste toward


    women was naturally heightened.


    However, he never expected to meet such a beautiful woman like Lana tonight; that this woman had lit


    up the soul in his eyes. Well. It seemed that a trip to the outskirts tonight was not in vain at all!


    Soon enough, the crowd grew bigger and bigger, and several staff members of the auction came out to


    the entrance gate, and then stood still in two rows.


    One of the guys with thick eyebrows and sharp eyes uttered aloud, “Attention, please! We apologize for


    making everyone wait for a long time. Now we’ll open up the gates and let everyone in. Please line up


    here, and remember, one invitation only allows two people to go in, the remaining will have to wait


    outside!”


    The crowd lined up in pairs as requested by the staff, then handed the invitation card and entered the


    vi.


    “Let’s go!”


    jackie threw the cigarette butt on the ground, stomped it fiercely to put out the fire. Only then he strode


    toward the entrance with Lana.


    Chapter 998


    After jackie handed the card to the staff, he and Lana entered the vi and came into a nicely decorated


    hall.


    On the side of the hall, a stage was built temporarily for this auction and there were stools for the people


    to sit.


    The light was dim, and the atmosphere was eerie; the crowd could not help but frown.


    The hall was soon filled with people—nearly a hundred of them. Then an old man wearing a charcoal


    ck robe and a mask on his face walked up to the stage slowly.


    The old man’s blond and shiny hair caught Lana’s eyes; her face immediately dulled and sank. “Is this


    organizer from America?” Lana whispered to jackie.


    jackie’s brows snapped together at the scene before him. “Howe? How did the Dragon scale fall into


    the hands of the people of America?”


    At this moment, once jackie finished hisst sentence, hundreds of ck-clothed people came into the


    hall from the front doors and side doors, surrounding everyone in the center of the hall.


    “What the…”


    The situation of being surrounded by hundreds of bulky, ck-clothed men had the prominent families


    feeling worried.


    “Oh, everyone, please stay calm. They’re here today to maintain the order and help with the auction.


    Don’t have to worry!” The old man on the stage opened his mouth with a warmugh and his arms


    extended, signalling everyone not to panic.


    The old man then pped his hands, gesturing to the staff to bring out the item. A female usher walked


    up to the stage with a te in her hands. On top of the te, there was a golden scale.


    “That’s the legendary Dragon scale?”


    All gazes with sparkles in them were fixed on the dragon scale on the te.


    “I guess so? It looks like fish scales! I can’t tell if it’s real or fake but it’s really huge, almost as big as a


    palm!”


    Another man from the crowd muttered with overwhelming emotion in his voice.


    “ jackie…”


    Lana was bursting with joy that her eyes were full of excitement.


    “It’s the Dragon scale, make sure we get it!” jackie nodded to confirm its truthfulness.


    When he thought of it, his fists clenched tightly. Without this piece of dragon scale, he could not advance


    and further elevate his overallbat power; he could not take his strength to another level. This dragon


    scale seemed to have be a tangled knot in his heart.


    The current jackie was at a critical juncture of breaking through hisbat prowess. His heart had


    longed to retrieve this dragon scale.


    “Ladies and gentlemen, look, this is the legendary Dragon scale!”


    The old man chortled warmly then added, “I believe many of you are here just to experience something


    new, and most of you don’t even know how precious this Dragon scale is, and how useful it is! This is not


    ordinary treasure like rare gemstones; it is a real treasure!”


    “Old man, how can you prove that it’s a real treasure? Even if it’s a real dragon scale, how can you prove


    that it has the miraculous effect of prolonging human life in addition to being somewhat collectible? Didn’t


    you say that it has such an effect?”


    At this point of time, a young master of a family stood up and spilled out his question gently, with his


    hands behind his back.


    Chapter 999


    “He’s right! You have to prove it and tell us more if you wanna get money from us in this auction!”


    Another young master echoed with a sarcastic tone. “I came over here today merely to see something


    new. I’m a young master of a prominent family; I have other priorities, you know? And there’s just one


    item in today’s auction, that’s the Dragon scale. I came here for it, so you better don’t disappoint me!”


    “This young master is right! We’ll certainly not make your money go to waste! It’ll be worth it!”


    The old man of America who was on the stageughed out loud at the young master’sment. “I


    believe this is nothing new for everyone, that in this world, everyone is always seeking for improvement


    and enhancement in theirbative area; Everyone wishes to be a master of martial arts or even


    the ultimate grandmaster of martial arts of the era! The real strong fighter acquired the techniques of


    enhancement and only with the knowledge of those techniques, only then one can be the real


    ultimate strong fighter.”


    Everyone nodded their head after listening to the old man’s speech. As citizens of the City of Martial Arts,


    they understood this point clearly.


    The old man opened his mouth once again and spilled the words in a slow manner, “And only a real


    strong fighter is able to control the Chi in their body and release it and use it to attack. Such strong


    fighters are rare, and we see them as someone who has surpassed the level of the ultimate grandmaster


    of martial arts; such a person is basically considered a demi-god! Because they can fly in the air!”


    At this time, an old man from the crowd stood up from his chair and jeered, “Why are you telling us about


    that? Who doesn’t know about that! In general, thosemon elite fighters in our families are like the


    majors and the marshals from the military; and the elders are like the kings and queens of war; and the


    Nine Great Gods of War, heh, they’re the demigods! Am I right?”


    “Pretty much. They’re called Gods of War in Daxia, but in terms of theirbat prowess, they are pretty


    much at the demi-god level!”


    “There are some demi-god-like fighters in the City of Martial Arts, but they are rare. Fighters of the level


    of Kings of War are slightly more!”


    The old man on the stage bobbed his head in agreement. Then he faced the crowd and threw out


    another question, “Then do you know, what is the level above the demi-god level?”


    Puzzlement and confusion were stered on the crowd’s faces.


    “Well. Not sure about that!”


    Some shook their heads.


    “I did hear about it before!”


    The previous old man from the crowd once again uttered, “It’s said to be a true god. In fact, from the


    name of it, you can know how strong, powerful, and terrifying thebat prowess of the true god is. A


    level lower is demi-god, and the ultimate level is true god, naturally true god level is way more powerful


    than demi-god level!”


    “You’re so right, Mister!”


    The old man from America who was in charge of hosting the auction said, “We all know that after the war


    between America and Daxia, Nine Great Gods of War are born and there is another existence above


    these Nine Great Gods of War, that’s the Supreme Warrior!”


    A middle-aged man from the crowd suddenly stood on his feet and yelled excitedly, “Are you—are you


    saying that this Supreme Warrior’sbat prowess is at the true god level?”


    The old man on the stage chortled. “There are too few human beings who have reached the true god


    level. And I guess most of you don’t know that in this world, there are many hidden strong, and powerful


    families. They live in the deep mountains and away from the public. And most of the true god fighters are


    hidden in these families. But, these hidden families will not mingle with peasants like us nor intervene


    with themoners’ lives.”


    The old man paused for a moment before continuing, “If I’m guessing correctly, the Supreme Warrior of


    Daxia has not reached the true god-level either. He is already at the peak of the demi-god level and is


    about to break through to reach the true god level. This piece of Dragon’s scale is exactly what fell off of


    him!”


    The corners of jackie’s mouth twitched awkwardly at the old man’s speech, and his face turned unsightly.


    jackie’s eyes were stoic and gloomy at the same time. Who the heck was this old man? How could he


    know so much about him? He even guessed correctly about hisbat prowess level. jackie did try to


    break through the demi-god level several times recently, however, unfortunately, he was not able to


    reach the true god level.


    He thought this fallen piece of dragon scale was exactly the reason behind him not being able to


    breakthrough!


    Chapter 1000


    “Are you joking? This Dragon scale fell off of a person? Old man, we may not even fully believe it when


    you say this fish-scale-like thing is a Dragon scale, and now you’re telling me that this Dragon scale fell


    off of a person’s body?”


    Someone from the crowd could not help but mock uncontrobly, “You’re making up stories so that you


    could increase the value of this Dragon scale, aren’t you? But we’re no fool. Your story is too ridiculous,


    and we’ll not believe you. I’m afraid today you can’t sell this scale off for much money!”


    Another man stood up as well. “Old man, why are you telling us all these? Now I know there is one level


    higher than the semi-god level, which is the true god level. Person of true god-level should be already


    taking the top position of humanity, right? But what does this have to do with you auctioning this Dragon


    scale?”


    “Of course, there is a tight connection! The person who had this dragon scale had been desiring a


    breakthrough in hisbat prowess, and this dragon scale fell off of him, hence, it is naturally nourished


    by the spiritual energy of the person, as well as, absorbing the spiritual force of the earth and heaven.


    This Dragon scale is a real treasure!”


    The old man chuckled nonchntly. “But, if you guys really think that our motive today is to auction the


    Dragon scale off, then you are all idiots! Hahaha!” The old man jeered cunningly.


    “Oi, Old man, what do you mean? Are you fooling us? Since you’ve invited us all here, why don’t you


    auction it off? Making our trip here for nothing?”


    Another middle-aged man shot up from his seat and yelled angrily.


    “Motherf*cker! You’re ying us around, aren’t you? Well then. If you don’t auction it, I’ll grab it by force!”


    Another old man was even more furious that he basically jumped off from his seat and charged toward


    the stage. He was soon standing before the old-aged host and swung his arm, throwing a heavy punch


    toward the host.


    “Oh my… This force and this speed. This old man’s fighting skill isparable to an eighth-grade


    grandmaster, isn’t it?”


    Lana was shocked at the sight before her and she continued, “That means this old man is as strong as


    an eight-star King of War!”


    jackie bobbed his head at Lana’s guess. This old man was definitely something else.


    “But I think he’s not even his opponent! Sigh.”


    jackie breathed out a bitter smile as he replied to Lana.


    Sure enough, just as jackie’s words fell, the old-aged host on the stage—who was wearing a mask—


    balled his fist firmly and threw it toward the fist of another old man. One could visibly witness ayer of


    Chi energy surrounding the balled fist of the old-aged host.


    A loud sound pierced through the air and sent waves that shook the ce for a few seconds. The old


    man who challenged the host was knocked backward and smashed heavily into the crowd. A mouthful of


    blood was spurted out.


    An eighth-grade grandmaster was sted away just like that, and he was badly wounded!


    “Who—who the hell are you?”


    The old man on the ground stared deadly at the old man on the stage, his eyes full of shock and


    confusion. The injured old man was deemed as a strong fighter of a first-ss family; an eighth-grade


    grandmaster for god-sake! It was rare to see an eighth-grade grandmaster appear in public, but to


    everyone’s surprise, that even such a powerful person was not the opponent of the old man on the


    stage!


    The old man with the mask held the dragon scale in his grip, then he flipped his palm, and the dragon


    scale disappeared.


    Only then he sneered scornfully, “The main purpose of inviting all of you here today is to lure someone


    out, who I believe is already here and hidden within this crowd, am I right?”


    The old man paused for a few seconds before continuing, “This someone is no other than the owner of


    this Dragon scale, hahaha!”


    “Are you f*cking kidding me? The dragon scale really fell off a person?”


    The crowd was murmuring; some people still could not bring themselves to trust the old man’s words and


    feel that everything was too magical.


    “The owner of the Dragon scale, what’s wrong? Don’t dare toe out? Such a coward! The Dragon


    scale is with me right now,e and grab it if you have the guts!”


    The old manughed rampantly like a chimpanzee.


    “Hey, Old man, since you’re not auctioning this dragon scale, we’re allowed to leave, right?”


    A few people stood up and ready to leave the hall.


    “He’s right. Old man, we’re not the someone you’re looking for. So, see you never!”
