The Ex-Husband’s Revenge chapter 2101

"Spencer, Stephen, Mason, here are three Sun Pills. I've saved them up specifically for the three of you," Leon said.

"Us, too?"

The three gaped at Leon in disbelief.

"Of course! The three of you work for me as well, so I can't possibly only prepare pills for these two, right?" Leon said with a smile.

"Oh,"

The three were instantly rendered speechless and were all overwhelmed by emotions.

After witnessing how Leon offered pills to the Scammells, they learned that the Sun Pills were even more powerful than the Cleansing Pills.

Since the Sun Pills were not sold on the sales drive, one could easily tell that they held more value than the Cleansing Pills, yet Leon offered them such precious pills.

The realization that Leon valued them greatly moved them and they all fell onto their knees without hesitation.

"Thank you, Mister Wolf."

"We don't even know how we can ever repay you."

Spencer and the other two said earnestly.

Not only did Leon teach them an Advanced Power method, but he was also extremely kind to them and never treated them like they were below him.

At this point, Leon's power surpassed theirs by miles and they were nothing useful to Leon. However, Leon did not abandon them and was willing to invest valuable resources in them to help them grow, which shook them to their core.

Instantly, all five of them decided to repay Leon's kindness at all costs.

"You don't have to act all formal with me! Just get up and take your pill!" Loen said, before handing them the Sun Pill.

He knew that Spencer and the others were of no use to him at their current power levels, but he was a loyal man and since they already became a part of the Wolfs, they would eventually become crucial members of the family as long as they stayed loyal and Leon saw no wrong in treating them with kindness.

Since Leon's overall strength reached the Intermediate Almighty State, martial artists under the Almighty State had no use to him and he did not care about his subordinates' power level.

He would rather cultivate the loyal followers that he already had than recruit others in the Emperor State as his priority was the recruit martial artists in the Almighty State.

"Alright. Let's clean up!" Leon ordered Spencer and the others to lead the staff to clean up, while he started looking over the finance reports with Cynthia.

With that, the second sales drive of Cynthion Group came to a successful end.

The Ex-Husband’s Revenge chapter 2102

Meanwhile, in the Thompsons Mansion.

Roanne followed Angus and Arthur home after staying with Leon and the others for the past two days.

"Roanne, you were only in the Advanced Overlord State a few days ago. How'd you get to the Semi-Emperor State all of a sudden?" Angus asked as he failed to understand how Roanne managed to achieve such rapid growth after staying in Leon's mansion as a guest for only two days.

With the help of the Cleansing Pill and the Supreme Pure Energy Pill, Roanne grew even further to reach the Intermediate Emperor State.

Within a matter of days, she easily caught up to Yuri, who was referred to as the brightest martial artist of his generation.

It all seemed so surreal that he could hardly believe what was happening.

"Oh! Leon helped me using the Motherwort Pills," Roanne explained.

"The Motherwort Pills? What's that? Why isn't that sold during the sales drive?" Angus was confused as he did not know what the Motherwort Pills were used for.

"I don't know, but I think that Motherwort Pills is likely far more valuable compared to the Cleansing Pills and that's probably why Leon didn't put it up for sell," Roanne said thoughtfully.

She was there when Leon produced the Motherwort Pills and Sun Pill and knew that Leon only managed to produce a few pills for each type, so she naturally came to conclude that the pills were worth too much for Leon to sell them.

"I see!" Angus said.

He thought that the Cleansing Pills were the most powerful pills Cynthion Group had to offer, and was shocked to learn that there were even better pills.

Stunned by the vast potential of alchemy, he felt moved.

"Roanne, will I be able to get to the Intermediate Emperor State as well with the Motherwort Pills?" Yonas asked excitedly.

He did not know much about the Motherwort Pills but saw how Roanne managed to rise to the Intermediate Emperor State from the Advanced Overlord State in a few days with the help of the Motherwort Pills and the Cleansing Pill.

Since Yonas was in the Peak Overlord State, he was more powerful than Roanne a few days ago and if he could obtain the Motherwort Pills, he might be able to achieve the same thing as Roanne along with the Cleansing Pill in his possession.

With that, he would be able to compete with Yuri for the position of heir. Instantly, his heart was filled with longing for the Motherwort Pills.

"No! The Motherwort Pills only works for martial artists who train with dark methods, so I'm afraid it won't be of much use to you," Roanne shook her head.

"I see,’ Yonas was disappointed to learn that the Motherwort Pills would not work for him, but what Roanne said next reignited his hope.

The Ex-Husband’s Revenge chapter 2103

"Yonas, Leon produced something else apart from the Frost Fire Pill, called the Sun Pill that can enhance the power of martial artists who study light methods," Roanne said hesitantly.

She was an innocent woman and could not tell that Yonas had an ulterior motive, so she simply explained everything she knew.

"What? Are you saying that the Sun Pill can help me?" Yonas' eyes lit up.

"I think so. I don't know for sure, but Grandpa John took one Sun Pill before, so you can ask him about it," she said.

She took the Frost Fire Pill instead of the Sun Pill, so she did not know the precise effect of the Sun Pill.

John, who took the Sun Pill, should have more insight on the matter.

Angus, Arthur, and the others instantly shifted their attention to John.

"As Miss Roanne said, the Sun Pill can indeed enhance martial artists' strength and power! Thanks to Mister Wolf's generosity, I took one Sun Pill and succeeded in reaching the Almighty State from the Semi-Almighty State," John nodded and nothing but praise for the Sun Pill.

"What?!"

"You're in the Almighty State?!"

"Really?!"

The others were all shocked.

The Almighty State was a challenging benchmark to hit on the path of all martial artists and most martial artists of the older generation stopped at the Semi-Almighty State, failing to reach the Almighty State.

Even for the Thompsons, there were only a dozen of martial artists in the family despite their status as the head of all families in the southern region.

John was old and his physique was deteriorating, so it would have been impossible for him to break past his current power level. However, with the Sun Pill Loen produced, he had reached the Almighty State miraculously and all the Thompsons were shocked.

"It's true!" John said and released his true energy.

Angus and Arthur instantly sensed that John indeed rose to the Almighty State.

"Wonderful! The Sun Pill works like magic!" Angus snapped out of it and was instantly thrilled.

He reached the Semi-Almighty State a few years ago but was not capable of moving forward. If he could obtain a Sun Pill, he would be able to reach the Almighty State, saving himself a few years of work.

He was in his prime years and the earlier he could get past the bottleneck of his training, the more accomplished he could potentially be in the future as it would be extremely hard for him to reach a breakthrough if he reached the age of John.

Since the Pure Energy Pills offered by Cynthion Group guarantee a breakthrough, all families saw the importance of obtaining the pills.

The Ex-Husband’s Revenge chapter 2104

"Sun Pill! The odds are in my favor!" Yonas was also excited and narrowed his eyes slyly, determined to obtain the Sun Pill to enhance his power.

With the control over the family being held by the second bloodline, he was confident that he could compete with Yuri as heir as long as he obtained the Sun Pill.

"Uncle, you guys are close with Leon, right? Just ask him for a few Sun Pills! Remember to save me one!" He said bitterly.

Leon rejected his request during the sales drive, yet turned around to hand Angus two Cleansing Pills for free. Since Leon seemed close with Angus and his family, Yonas decided to send Angus to ask for the Sun Pills and he would not have to do anything at all.

"Um, I'm afraid that won't work!" Angus said hesitantly.

though he wanted the Sun Pill as well, he knew that the fact that Loen did not sell the Sun Pill during the sales drive meant that the Sun Pill was scarce.

Even if Leon owned the Sun Pills, he might have other use for them. If he abused his alliance with Leon and simply ask Loen for the Sun Pills, he would be putting Leon in a difficult position.

"Why not? Uncle Angus, your family is close with Leon, and the Thompsons have helped him on multiple occasions! He should be grateful! Why's so wrong about asking for the Sun Pill after all that we have done for him?" Yonas said rudely.

He had a bad impression of Leon after Leon turned him down during the sales drive; on top of that, Leon had no allies or supporters in the southern region and needed the protection of the Thompsons, so he thought that it was Leon's honor to be associated with the Thompsons and it was only reasonable for him to show his gratitude by offering the Thompsons a few Sun Pills.

"Yonas, you're being absurd! Though the Thompsons have helped Mister Wolf a few times, he has saved Roanne twice as well," Angus deadpanned.

"So what? We've helped him so many times and even promoted his sales drive twice in a row. That ought to repay our debt to him! I think you just want to keep the Sun Pill to yourself!" Yonas said in annoyance.

"I-" Rendered speechless, Angus's expression darkened.

He was taken aback by Yonas's provoking tone and was at a loss for words.

"That's enough, Yonas! How dare to speak to your uncle with that tone?!" Infuriated by Yonas's tone, Arthur instantly intervened.

The Ex-Husband’s Revenge chapter 2105

"Grandpa, I'm just telling the truth!" Yonas said stubbornly.

"How dare you argue with me?! Didn’t you hear me when I said that it's enough?! Apologize to your uncle right now, or I shall punish you!" Arthur was instantly enraged by his rebellious attitude.

"But," Yonas shivered and swallowed his words when he realized that Arthur was angry.

"Apologize now!" Arthur roared.

"A- Alright, Uncle Angus, I'm sorry. I just really want the Sun Pill and lost control of my words. Please forgive me," Yonas said reluctantly with resignation.

"Forget it! You're still young and don't know any better. Just watch your mouth in the future!" Angus sighed.

He knew that Yonas was prideful and always wanted to compete with Yuri to become the heir.

Thankfully, Arthur always remained just and fair.

Yuri was talented and brilliant in every aspect, so Arthur trained him to be the future leader and was prepared to hand the control back to the first bloodline.

Hence, Angus did not mind whatever plot Yonas had.

"Angus, Yonas might have stepped out of line, but he is right about one thing. If the Sun Pill can indeed get people from the Semi-Almighty State to the Almighty State, it is something we have to get our hands on! If possible, see if you can buy a few Sun Pills from Mister Wolf. This only benefits the Thompsons," Arthur said thoughtfully.

Powerful families like the Thompsons took pride in the Almighty martial artists in their bloodlines as symbols of their strength.

If Angus could purchase a few Sun Pills from Leon, the Thompsons would be able to gain a few more martial artists in the Almighty State.

On the other hand, the Southern Boss's power extended in the past few years and was close to overpowering the Thompsons.

The addition of a few more Almighty martial artists would reinforce the Thompsons' position as the head of all families.

Though Arthur was asking for the same thing, he was doing so out of consideration for his family unlike Yonas, who did so for his gain.

"Yeah, I'll try my best." Angus nodded as he could understand Arthur's concern.

Though the Southern Boss was a second-generation martial artist, he was extremely talented and already reached the Advanced Almighty State, which was a level that most martial artists older than he struggled to reach.

Since there were conflicts of interest between the Southern Boss and the Thompsons, the Thompsons would need to reinforce their strength to keep the Southern Boss under control.

Since the Sun Pills could help to produce Almighty martial artists, they were crucial to increasing the Thompsons' strength.

However, since the Sun Pills were scarce and Leon showed no intention of selling them, Angus was unsure how he could ask for the Sun Pills.

"Alright. I'll leave this to you, then!" Arthur said, before leaving with Yonas and other members of the second bloodline.

The Ex-Husband’s Revenge chapter 2106

Once Arthur and Yonas were gone, Yuri asked hesitantly," Dad, are you going to ask Mister Wolf for the Sun Pill? Isn't that a little rude?"

Like Angus, Yuri figured out that Leon likely had other use for the Sun Pill if he did not put them up for sale.

"I know, but I have to try for the future of the Thompsons," Angus said with resignation, feeling troubled.

After all that Leon did for his family, he did not know how to begin to ask for such a thing.

"That's right! Roanne, you work in the Elegante Group and see Leon all the time! Why don't you ask him about the Sun Pill the next time you see him?" Angus's eyes lit up and he turned to look at Roanne hopefully.

If he asked for the Sun Pill and Leon turned him down, their relationship would become highly awkward. However, Roanne was a similar age as Leon and worked alongside Leon, so the two were far closer.

Even if Leon rejected Roanne's request in the end, it would not affect their friendship so it would be more appropriate for Roanne to ask for the Sun Pill.

"Okay," Roanne nodded innocently, before remembering something, "Dad, I can ask Leon about the Sun Pill, but I have a request."

"What is it?" Angus asked in confusion.

"I want to move in with Leon. Is that okay?" She asked in anticipation.

"What?!" Her request stunned Angus, "Roanne, what are you talking about? Mister Wolf is a man, so how can you move in with him? It's so inappropriate!" He rejected her in displeasure.

"Yeah! Roanne, Mister Wolf's living with Miss Young and it's inappropriate for you to disrupt their lives like that!" Yuri said.

Iris was Loen's girlfriend and Yuri knew that the two lived together, so he could not understand why Roanne would want to get in between them. It was an extremely inappropriate and rude move to make.

"Dad, Yuri, it's not what you think! Cynthia, Snow, and Ruth all live in Leon's mansion! It's not that big a deal for me to join them!" Roanne said stubbornly.

"I see!"

Yuri and Angus were less confused when they learned that there were others in Leon's mansion, and since they did not know about the relationship between Leon and Cynthia, they did not see anything wrong with the arrangement.

On top of that, it was Leon's private matter and they did not pay much mind to it.

The Ex-Husband’s Revenge chapter 2107

"Dad, I like Snow and the others and I'd be surrounded by friends if I move over. Isn't that a good thing? I feel quite lonely most of the time," Roanne added.

Due to her previous condition, she was not able to have friends, so Iris, Snow, and the others were her only friends.

She wished to move to spend more time with them, but also so that she could see Leon every day.

"No way! If you feel lonely, you can go see them during the weekends, you don't need to move in with them!" Angus shook his head, not wanting Roanne to disrupt Leon's life.

"Please, Dad, Leon has a tressure that helps martial artists with their training. It’s the pearl we saw before. If I move in with them, I'll be able to power up even faster," Roanne rocked her father's arm and said sweetly.

"What?!"

"That pearl is a tool to be used for training?!"

Yuri and Angus were both stunned.

They both saw the Spiritual Pearl back when Leon treated Roanne and finally come to the realization of why Leon managed to grow at such a rapid pace to that point that even Rodney was no match for him; according to what Roanne said, the Spiritual Pearl played an important role in Leon's growth.

Apart from feeling shocked, they were both impressed by Leon's luck in happening upon such an excellent tool.

Yuri himself was tempted to move to Leon's mansion to train with the Spiritual Pearl but gave up because it would be inappropriate for him to live in a house filled with women.

"Dad, will you agree to let me move there?" Roanne asked in anticipation.

"But, it's just worrying for you to live out there alone! Besides, Mister Wolf has a lot of enemies and it's not safe for you to live with him!" Angus said hesitantly.

He knew that Roanne was just as talented as Yuri and since she already reached the Intermediate Emperor State, she was close to catching up with Yuri.

If Roanne moved to live with Leon, she would be able to reach the Almighty State within a few years with Leon's help. If she managed to grow into a martial artist in the Almighty State or higher in her age, it would benefit the Thompsons greatly and they would have nothing to fear from the Southern Boss.

However, Leon's current situation worried Angus.

The Hiltons and the Southern Boss were determined to eliminate Leon and if Roanne moved over, there was a high chance that she might get dragged into trouble.

The Ex-Husband’s Revenge chapter 2108

"It's fine, Dad! I have Grandpa John here. He can follow me to Leon's place! With him protecting me, nothing's going to happen!" Roanne said, before turning to look at John with a sweet smile. "Right, Grandpa John?"

"Um, yeah," John said hesitantly.

Angus and Yuri were never in Leon's mansion before and did not know much about the detail, but John knew that Leon was surrounded by women of breath-taking beauty.

He had the intention of reporting it to Angus so that Angus could keep Roanne from being too close to Leon.

However, Leon offered a precious Sun Pill to John two days ago and helped him reach the Almighty State.

Since John was yet to come across the chance to repay the favor, he could not bring himself to say anything negative about Leon.

After observing Leon for the past two days, he noticed that Leon was a virtuous man who was not overly intimate with Cynthia, Snow, and Ruth, so John felt that it would be alright for Roanne to move in with them.

Instantly, he felt assured and swallowed his words.

"Um, alright, then. Move in with them!" Angus thought about it for a moment and agreed in the end.

He knew that Roanne had a point. Since John reached the

Almighty State, he was far more powerful than in the past and should be more than capable of protecting Roanne from harm.

Since the Thompsons were the head of all families in the southern region, the Southern Boss and the Hiltons would not dare to cross the Thompsons directly.

If Roanne moved in with Leon, the Southern Boss and the Hiltons would hesitate before scheming against Leon.

"Great! I'll pack now!" Overjoyed, Roanne ran off gleefully.

Meanwhile, in the chairman's office of Cynthion Group, Leon and the others finally went through all the finance reports.

Upon calculation, Cynthion Group made a profit of at least 780 million from the sales drive.

At the moment, the overall assets owned by all families in the southern region would make a profit not exceeding a billion annually, yet Cynthion Group made a combined profit of over a billion by hosting two sales drives.

This proved the potential Cynthion Group held and that was precisely the reason why the Southern Boss wanted it so badly.

Just as Leon and the others celebrated their success, Mason hurried into the office from outside.

"Mister Wolf, there's an old man who claims to be in the Semi-Almighty State waiting for you. He said he wants to work for Cynthion Group," Mason said respectfully.

The Ex-Husband’s Revenge chapter 2109

"What?" Leon stood abruptly from shock.

He announced that Cynthion Group was looking to recruit martial artists in the Semi-Almighty and Almighty States during the sales drive out of desperation, and did not have high hope that he could get any response.

To his pleasant surprise, a martial artist in the SemiAlmighty State responded to the recruitment shortly after the announcement.

"Mason, where's this old man? Take me to him right now!" Leon asked hastily.

"Mister Wolf, I've arranged for him to wait in the reception room," Mason said.

"Good. I'm going to meet him now!" Leon said and darted outside.

Iris, Cynthia, and the others stood and followed Leon out of the office.

In the reception room, Leon strode in with the others and spotted an old man alongside a young woman in her early twenties.

Despite her stunning looks, she was dressed casually and looked away sheepishly as though she was afraid of strangers.

"Hello, sir. I'm the chairman of Cynthion Group, Leon Wolf! How may I address you?" Leon greeted the old man politely.

"Mister Wolf, my name's Henry Yates and this is my granddaughter, Sherlyn Yates," the old man answered.

"It's a pleasure to meet you, Henry!" Leon smiled kindly.

After a brief exchange of pleasantry, they all took their seats.

"Henry, I heard from Mason that you're in the Semi-Almighty State and wish to join Cynthion Group. Is that true?" Leon cut to the chase.

"Yes. I'm old, though. I'm not sure if that is a concern for you, " Henry said and released his true energy.

Leon could instantly confirm that he was indeed in the SemiAlmighty State.

"We aren't concerned at all! As long as you're willing to join us, we'll welcome you with open arms! As far as benefits and payment go, we will offer you the best we can manage," Leon said with excitement.

He desperately needed martial artists in the Semi-Almighty and Almighty States and was overjoyed that Henry was willing to work for him.

Leon was always a man who treated his subordinates with kindness. He was more than willing to share precious training methods and alchemical pills that could help with their training and were never stingy with salary, so he was confident that Henry would be satisfied with his conditions.

"Thank you, Mister Wolf, but there's something I must warn you about," Henry said hesitantly.

"What is it?" Leon asked.

"I have a powerful enemy hunting me down throughout the years. I came to Cynthion Group looking for protection, actually," Henry sighed.

"Enemy? Who's your enemy?" Leon was slightly taken by surprise.

"My enemy is the Scarlet Thief, a vicious man who ranks at fourth place on the criminal list," Henry gritted out, his bloodshot eyes filled with hatred toward Scarlet Thief.

The Ex-Husband’s Revenge chapter 2110

"What?"

"The Scarlet Thief of the criminal list?!" Leon was shocked and stood abruptly.

He was confused as to why someone would respond to his recruitment so swiftly and came to realize that Henry came to Cynthion Group for protection after being hunted by the Scarlet Thief.

The plot twist shocked him, and the others felt the same.

Iris and the others lived in the southern region long enough at this point to know about the criminal list.

They knew that the eight criminals listed were all vicious killers, but since they were all extremely powerful and were great at hiding, it was challenging to eliminate them even for the Dragon Corps.

Since the Scarlet Thief ranked fourth on the list, one could only imagine the extent of his power.

"Mister Wolf, as far as I'm concerned, the Scarlet Thief has reached the Intermediate Almighty State and he's a ruthless man. I wonder if Cynthion Group is willing to take me in," Henry said sheepishly.

He wished for Leon to think everything through before recruiting him as he did not want to involve Leon and the Cynthion Group in trouble.

However, the Scarlet Thief was an extremely formidable enemy and there was not a soul who would dare to cross him.

Henry tried seeking refuge with a few families, but no one dared to take him in out of fear for the Scarlet Thief.

Since Cynthion Group was recruiting Semi-Almighty martial artists, Henry came to try his luck and did not get his hope up.

After all, Cynthion was a new-rising enterprise and not a powerful family, so it was normal for Leon to turn him away.

As he was absorbed in his thoughts, what Leon said next shook him to his core.

"There's nothing to fear from the Scarlet Thief! Don't worry, Henry! If you pledge your loyalty to Cynthion Group, I'm more than willing to take you in!" Leon said confidently.

"What?!"

Everyone in the room, including Henry, Iris, and the others, were all stunned by his words.

Henry knew just how terrifying the Scarlet Thief could be and even some of the most powerful families would steer clear of the Scarlet Thief s way.

To his bewilderment, Leon agreed to take him in and showed no fear toward the Scarlet Thief, who was on the criminal list.

He simply could not understand what gave Leon the confidence to take the Scarlet Thief so lightly and felt shaken.
