The Ex-Husband’s Revenge chapter 2421
"You can find out by taking one!" Leon smiled in response to Arhtur's suspicion.
"But, what if it fails? That would waste a Sun Pill!" Arthur said hesitantly.
He knew just how valuable and scarce the Sun Pills were, and if reserved for second-generation Thompsons like August,
he could easily reach the Almighty State from the Semi-Almighty State.
Considering August's age, he could likely ascend to the Intermediate, or even the Advanced Almighty State once he got
past the bottleneck of his training.
However, if one of the pills was wasted, the Thompsons might lose the opportunity to cultivate a member who could get to
the Intermediate or Advanced Almighty State.
Arthur was elderly and most of his bodily functions were deteriorating. If he took the Sun Pill and failed to reach the Peak
Almighty State, he might be so discouraged that it would become even harder for him to try again in the future.
Hence, he was hesitant to use the Sun Pill.
"It won't fail! I'm here, and there's at least an eighty percent chance that this will work!" Leon said confidently.
If Arthur took the pill alone, he might not have been able to get past the bottleneck of the training, but the
circumstances were different since Leon was around.
He helped others with their training using pills countless times before and considered himself experienced in this aspect.
Arthur was already close to reaching the Peak Almighty State, and with the aid of the Sun Pill, Leon was confident that he
could help Arthur get to the Peak Almighty State immediately.
"Well," Arthur, Angus, and the others were silent.
A breakthrough was never easy, especially when one was already at a high power level.
Considering Arthur's health and age, the possibility of him getting to the next power level was extremely low, so none of
them could understand why Leon felt this confident.
However, upon recalling what Leon accomplished so far, they shared hopeful looks.
Though Leon was young, he was resourceful and created miracles time and time again, so he might just be able to help
Arthur.
"Uncle Arthur, since Mister Wolf is confident about this, why don't you just take one Sun Pill?" Angus said.
"Well, alright then! Mister Wolf, I'll trust you one more time!" Arthur contemplated his choice and decided to gamble on his
chances.
He was growing old and his health was declining. Even if he was to train, he might never get to the Peak Almighty State.
If he was to succeed, it would require at least two years of hard work and if the Southern Boss appeared during this time
to rescue Rodney, Arthur knew he would not be able to do much to the Southern Boss, who was in the Advanced Almighty
State.
With that said, he should take his chances.
If Leon could indeed help him get to the Peak Almighty State, the Southern Boss would be doomed as soon as he showed
himself.
The Ex-Husband’s Revenge chapter 2422
"Uncle Arthur, take this Sun Pill." Angus took out a Sun Pill and handed it to Arthur once he agreed to Leon’s suggestion.
Arthur was about to take the pill when Leon stopped him.
"Hang on! Elder Thompson, to help you get to the next power level, I'll need to set the Light Convergence Circle up! You
should take the pill after that. That way, the pill's effect will be doubled," Leon said.
"Light Convergence Circle? Mister Wolf, is that the same circle you used to fix Roanne's Third Degree Block?" Angus felt
that he heard the name before and instantly recalled what it was.
"Yeah! Uncle Angus, do you still have the 36 jadeite tablets with you? I need them to set up a circle," Leon inquired.
"Sure. I kept them all in my study. Yuri, go and retrieve them, " Angus said to Yuri.
"Okay," Yuri said, before leaving the main hall.
Shortly after, he returned and handed the tablets to Leon.
Leon then told Arthur and the others to head to the yard outside the main hall.
In the spacious yard, he found an empty spot and arranged the tablets into a Light Convergence Circle according to the
Nine Palaces and Eight Trigrams.
The Light Convergence Circle could gather the light energy in the atmosphere and since it was noon, the circle's power
would be maximized, which could aid martial artists who practice light methods in their training.
Once everything was ready, Leon took off the jadeite he wore around his neck and placed it at the center of the circle to
activate it.
The clear jadeite he used for circles in the past was buried in the mountain behind his mansion, so he could only use the
one he wore around his neck as a replacement.
Master Haslewood once said that this piece of jadeite was of great quality, so he assumed that he could use it to activate
the circle.
"Elder Thompson, the circle's ready. Take the Sun Pill now and come inside the circle," Leon instructed.
"Alright!" Arthur did not know what the circle was for, he stepped into it as instructed and took the Sun Pill, before
circulating his energy.
The Sun Pill melted in his mouth and transformed into streams of energy that surged through his body. At the same time,
the Light Convergence Circle was activated and the light energy in the air gathered into visible streams of light and rushed
into Arthur's body.
"How powerful!" Arthur was stunned by the pure energy from the Sun Pill and the Light Convergence Circle.
Not daring to lose focus, he immediately began internalizing the energy.
The Ex-Husband’s Revenge chapter 2423
Sometime later, half an hour passed and Arthur slowly absorbed the energy
surging within him and his strength leveled up, reaching its peak.
"Good! Elder Thompson, you can try to get past the bottleneck of your training
now," Leon said decisively next to Arthur, seeing that the time came.
Upon receiving his instruction, Arthur immediately gathered his energy without
hesitation and focused on getting to the next power level.
Unfortunately, he was old and his bodily functions were deteriorating. Despite
his efforts, he was still one step away from getting to the next power level.
Still, he refused to give up and kept trying.
Determined, he tried dozens of times, before starting to turn pale and
exhausted. His forehead was covered in sweat, but he was still unable to get
past the bottleneck of his training.
"Oh no!"
"Is Uncle Arthur failing?"
The others outside the circle felt their hearts sink at the sight, their faces paling.
They were all skilled martial artists and could tell from Arthur's looks that he was
on the brink of collapsing.
It was almost certain that Arthur could not get to the next power level unless
there were a miracle.
Naturally, Arthur felt the same as well. He knew that he failed and was incapable
of getting past the bottleneck of his training.
"Mister Wolf, I've failed, after all," He opened his eyes and smiled bitterly in
disappointment.
Though he guessed that someone his age could not get to the Peak Almighty
State with a single attempt, he was desperate and encouraged by Leon, so he
decided to take his chance.
In the end, it appeared as though he failed.
This failure would become an obstacle for him, discouraging him from
attempting another breakthrough in the future.
Instantly, he regretted agreeing to what Leon proposed so recklessly, but it was
too late.
"You haven't failed yet! Elder Thompson, this is the most important part. Keep
your eyes closed and focus!" Leon shouted.
"Oh, alright!" Arthur snapped out of it and closed his eyes to focus once again,
but his heart remained heavy with despair.
He was running out of strength and his failure seemed inevitable, so he did not
think that he stood a chance of succeeding, nor did he think that Leon was
capable of changing what would happen.
However, before he could sink deeper into his despair, Leon leaped into action

Sometime later, half an hour passed and Arthur slowly absorbed the energy
surging within him and his strength leveled up, reaching its peak.
"Good! Elder Thompson, you can try to get past the bottleneck of your training
now," Leon said decisively next to Arthur, seeing that the time came.

However, before he could sink deeper into his despair, Leon leaped into action
The Ex-Husband’s Revenge chapter 2425
"Great! I did get to the next level!" Arthur stood and burst into laughter.
Like the others, he thought that he was set for failure and was devastated. Yet, Leon managed to turn the tides and helped him get to the Peak Almighty State
with ease.
It was unexpected and Arhtur was overjoyed.
"Congratulations, Elder Thompson," Leon said with a smile and picked his pendant up from the center of the circle.
"Mister Wolf, thank you so much for getting me past the bottleneck of my
training. I don't even know how I can repay this debt." Arthur snapped out of it and thanked Leon earnestly.
"Elder Thompson, you don't have to thank me. We're allies, so it's only normal
for us to help each other out," Leon said with a smile, before raising his arm to
withdraw the Spiritual Pearl.
"Mister Wolf, is this pearl the treasure Roanne talked about? The one that helps with martial artists' training?" Arthur glanced at the Spiritual Pearl in Leon's hand in realization.
When he and Angus demanded that Roanne move out of Leon's house, Roanne
claimed that Leon owned a treasure that could help with her training.
She also mentioned that she was reluctant to leave because
she wanted to keep training with Leon and the others.
Now that Leon used the Spiritual Pearl with Arhtur's training, Arthur finally realized that he underestimated the pearl's power.
If Roanne continued to train with Leon, it would only benefit her.
"That's right! This is called the Spiritual Pearl and I stumbled upon it in the past.”
Leon nodded.
"I see! Mister Wolf, how lucky of you to obtain such a powerful treasure," Arhtur said enviously.
He used to be baffled as to how a young man like Leon with no powerful family
background managed to reach the Almighty State. It was not until this moment
that he realized that it was because Leon was talented and had the help of the
Spiritual Pearl.
It seemed understandable that Leon surpassed others his age and Arthur was led to conclude that the Spiritual Pearl played an important role in his accomplishment.
Still, treasures were rare, especially for the ones that held tremendous power.
The fact that Leon managed to obtain the Spiritual Pearl was proof of his
capability as well, as it could not be accomplished by sheer luck.
Just as Arthur sank into his thoughts, Angus, Yuri, and the others hurried over.
"Mister Wolf, who would have known that you are not just talented, but also capable of helping others in the Almighty State with their training? Your abilities
never cease to amaze us!" Angus said sincerely.
The other elders and Yuri were all looking at Leon with respect as well.
After the battle with the Southern Boss, they all thought that they saw the full
extent of Leon's capability, only to realize that they underestimated Leon.
It was unheard of for someone to be capable of helping martial artists in the
Almighty State with their training, and their hearts were all filled with admiration
toward Leon at this moment.
The Ex-Husband’s Revenge chapter 2426
"Uncle Angus, you're too kind. I'm just lucky." Leon smiled modestly.
"How modest! As expected of a young, talented man! You'll achieve greatness in the future!" Arthur and the others nodded in approval.
For someone as young as Leon to create the Elegante Group and Cynthion
Group, and defeat the Southern Boss and the Spears, he was undoubtedly the most talented individual in the southern region. Even martial artists in the
previous generation would struggle to hold a candle to his accomplishments.
Still, despite what he achieved, Leon remained modest.
It was incredibly rare for one to possess such virtue and they all believed that
Leon would achieve greatness in the future.
"Uncle Angus, Elder Thompson, if this is all, I'll head home now." Seeing that it was getting late, Leon decided to leave since he achieved what he came for.
"Sure. Mister Wolf, about the underground community, let me know if you need
anything. The Thompsons will do our best to help," Angus said.
Though the Thompsons did not wish to be involved with the underground
community, they could help Leon with controlling it if Leon intended to send one of his
subordinates to replace the Southern Boss.
That way, the Thompsons could maintain their reputation and repay the debt
they owed Leon at the same time.
"Sure!" Leon said, before leaving.
Though the Thompsons did not help resolve the issue with the underground community, Arthur's suggestion gave Leon a new perspective, and he would
need to return home and make certain arrangements.
After Leon left, Arthur, Angus, and the others were left in the yard.
"Alright! Roanne, go pack your things and move out of Mister Wolf's place later!"
Angus changed the subject and recalled the decision he made earlier.
"Dad, I'm doing great living there. I don't want to move out," Roanne said bitterly.
Out of hope to see Leon every day, she refused to give up and attempted to
convince her family.
"That won't do," Angus said and was about to reprimand Roanne when he was interrupted by Arthur.
"Forget it! Angus, if Roanne doesn’t want to move back in with us, let her stay
with Mister Wolf!" Arthur said thoughtfully.
"What?" Angus was stunned.
It was Arthur who proposed for Roanne to move out of Leon's house, yet he
suddenly changed his mind and
intended to let Roanne stay with Leon instead.
This caught Angus by surprise and left him confused by how quickly Arthur changed his mind.
"Uncle, didn't you say that Roanne's an unmarried single woman and that her virtue and our reputation would be in question if she continues to stay with
Mister Wolf?" Angus asked worriedly.
The Ex-Husband’s Revenge chapter 2427-"I know that! But we aren't doing anything wrong. There are already a few
women staying with Mister Wolf, so what's the big deal with Roanne staying
there as well? Since Mister Wolf and those women don't care about the rumors,
the Thompsons shouldn't either," Arthur said.
"That might be true, but why?" Angus asked in confusion.
Though Arthur’s words made sense, he could not figure out what caused
Arthur’s view on the matter to change so drastically.
"Well, let me be frank with you! When Mister Wolf helped me with my training,
he succeeded mainly because of that Spiritual Pearl he owned. That pearl
contained bottomless energy and is a great aid for martial artists! Considering
how talented Roanne is, she could potentially ascend to the Semi -Saint, or
even the Saint State if she continues to train by Mister Wolf’s side!" Arthur said,
his eyes bright.
He never saw the Spiritual Pearl before, so he never truly believed what Roanne
said about wanting to train with Leon. However, upon experiencing the power of
the Spiritual Pearl himself, he finally realized that it was an incredibly powerful
tool.
Roanne was more talented than Yuri and if she continued to train with Leon, her
achievement would be unmeasurable.
This was a great opportunity for Roanne and others could only wish for a
chance like this.
If the Thompsons forced Roanne to move out of Leon's house out of concern for
their reputation, Roanne's talent would go to waste.
Hence, Arthur changed his mind.
"The Saint State!" Angus and the others were instantly moved.
They all knew that martial artists in the Saint State were legendary. Even for the
central region where the most powerful martial artists gathered, there were only
a few martial artists in the Semi-Saint State, and they all belonged to powerful
families.
No one ever heard of anyone who reached the Saint State.
If Roanne could truly become a martial artist in Saint State, Thompson's name
would be heard throughout the entire Sky County, thus strengthening the
foundation of their influence.
For as long as Roanne was alive, no one would dare to harm the Thompsons
and their family would remain strong for decades to follow. Furthermore, they
might reach yet another peak of their power.
Out of consideration for the greater good, the Thompsons must ensure that
Roanne remains by Leon's side at all costs, as she may eventually grow into a
martial artist in the Saint State.
Compared to that, scandals and reputations did not seem to matter.
The Ex-Husband’s Revenge chapter 2428-"Dad, Grandpa's right! Mister Wolf is extremely formidable and resourceful.
Anyone would kill for a chance to train by his side. If it wasn't for all the women
staying in his house, I would want to move into his place as well!" Yuri added.
He then paused and said, "Roanne's lucky that she gets to train by Mister Wolfs
side. We can't let this chance slip by out of concern for what others may say!"
"Well, you're right," Angus said, feeling at a loss for words.
He knew that Yuri was right.
A treasure like the Spiritual Pearl was hard to come by, and Leon would never
share it with just anyone.
Roanne was lucky that she was chosen by Leon and it was fair to say that
others could only wish to encounter an opportunity like that.
If he asked Roanne to give it up and move out of Leon's house, it would be
foolish of him.
"Roanne, I'll ask you this one last time. Do you not want to move out of Mister
Wolf’s place? This isn't a child's play and you need to consider your decision
carefully," Angus asked.
After hearing what Arthur and Yuri had to say, Angus's thoughts began to shift
and he decided that it was best for Roanne to train by Leon's side. However, as
Roanne's virtue may be questioned if she did so, he intended to seek her
opinion on the matter.
"Dad, I've considered it and I don't want to move back in." Roanne was
overjoyed and immediately voiced her stance.
"Alright, then! If you don't want to move back in, I won't make you. You'll
continue to remain by Mister Wolf’s side. Train well, as our future may depend
on you!" Angus said.
"Great! Don't worry, Dad. I'll work hard. I won't let you down!" Roanne promised.
"It's settled, then!" Angus decided.
Finally, Roanne could act according to her wishes and felt relieved about it.
Meanwhile, Leon left the Thompsons' mansion and went to the Westwoods'
shop to purchase a few high-class jadeites from Raphael, before returning to the
Heavenly Waters Estate.
By the time he arrived home, it was the evening and the women all returned
from work, followed by Henry, Mason, and the others.
They all ran into one another in the yard.
"Leon, what are you carrying in your hands?" Iris studied the black bags Leon
carried and asked.
"Just a few pieces of jadeites that I need," Leon said, before turning to Henry,
Mason, and the others, "Henry, Mason, the few of you will follow me. There's
something I need for you to do!"
"Yes, sir!" Henry, Mason, and the others said.
"Iris, you and the others have just gotten off work, so go inside and rest. I need
to get something done," Leon said to the four women, before heading toward
the mountain with Henry, Mason, and the others.
The Ex-Husband’s Revenge chapter 2429-In the mountain, Leon led his subordinates to an empty spot and stopped.
"Mister Wolf, what do you need us to do?”
Henry, Mason, and the others glanced around the thick woods and exchanged
confused looks.
"Well, I intend to get your power levels up," Leon explained.
These men, especially Mason, Spencer, and the others, followed him for a long
time and he could tell that they were loyal and trustworthy.
Except for Henry and Chandler, the others were too weak and to make up for
that, he intended to train Mason, Spencer, and the others to strengthen his
force.
"Get our power levels up?" The others perked up.
They all witnessed what Leon was capable of. Not only was he formidable, but
he was also resourceful beyond comprehension.
It was great news for them all that Leon wanted to help with their training.
Still, they thought back to what Leon did in the past and how he seemed to have
exhausted quite a few methods.
Instantly, they found themselves wondering what other tricks Leon was capable
of.
"Chandler, Leo, Austin, come over here! Neither of you has taken the Sun Pill
before. I've made a new batch, so each of you gets one," Leon said and took
out a white flask to retrieve three Sun Pills.
"Sun Pills? Really?" Leo and Austin were overjoyed.
Due to the insufficient stock of the Sun Pills, Leo and Austin were given two
Cleansing Pills in the past.
At the time, Spencer, Mason, and the others were all given the Sun Pills and
powered up because of that, as the Cleansing Pills were not suitable for their
conditions.
Leo and Austin knew just how rare and powerful the Sun Pills were and were
both excited that Leon did not forget about them.
"Mister Wolf, thank you," Leo and Austin fell on their knees before Leon after
accepting the pills.
Men fought for people who saw value in them.
Leon never looked down on them and did his best to help with their training.
Neither of them knew how to repay Leon's generosity and could only swear to
serve Leon at all costs.
"Alright, get up, the two of you! I hope you'll train well. Don't disappoint me!"
Leon smiled.
"Yes, sir! We won't fail you!" Leo and Austin said with determination, before
standing up.
"Mister Wolf, what is this Sun Pill?" Contrary to their reaction, Chandler, who
never saw the Sun Pills before, was confused about why Leo and Austin were
so thrilled over a pill.
The Ex-Husband’s Revenge chapter 2430
Before Leon could say anything, Henry explained, "Chandler, the Sun Pills can
help martial artists practice light methods and increase their power! Considering
how powerful you are already, you might get to the Intermediate Almighty State
with the Sun Pill's help."
Henry used the Sun Pill and reached the Almighty State from the Semi-Almighty
State in the past. Since Chandler was far more powerful than he was, and was
close to reaching the Intermediate Almighty State, he concluded that Chandler
would get to the Intermediate Almighty State in an instant.
"What? Henry, did you just say that I can get to the Intermediate Almighty State
after taking this pill? What kind of joke is that?!" Chandler was utterly stunned.
According to his experience, it was extremely difficult to have a breakthrough,
and it would become increasingly challenging the higher one's level was.
Apart from that, Chandler aged and his chance of ascending to the next power
level was slim.
Yet Henry claimed that a mere pill could help with that, so Chandler instantly
brushed it off as a joke.
"Henry's messing with you! Considering your current power level, the Sun Pill
can indeed get you to the Intermediate Almighty State!" Leon nodded in
agreement.
He already tested the effect of the new Sun Pills in the Thompsons' mansion,
and Arthur successfully ascended to the Peak Almighty State with the help of
the Sun Pill.
If the pill was effective for Arthur, who was far more powerful than the others, it
would also work on Chandler and get him to the Intermediate Almighty State.
Leon was confident that Chandler would succeed with him around.
"But, how's that possible?" Chandler gasped in disbelief, struggling to believe
that the Sun Pills contained such tremendous power.
"You just need to give it a try and find out!" Leon said and took out two clear
jadeite plates from the bag. He then threw the other plates to Mason, Leo, and
Austin. Mason, the three of you will bury these jadeite plates at the spots I point
to! I'll help Chandler first!"
"Yes, sir!" Mason and the other two said.
Under Leon's guidance, they planted thirty-six jadeite plants to form a Light
Convergence Circle that followed the Nine Palaces and Eight Trigrams.
The Light Convergence Circle could gather the light energy from the
atmosphere and aid Chander in his training.
Though the sun was setting and the Light Convergence Circle could not reach
its peak effect, it was better than nothing.
Leon then signaled Mason and the others to form an Energy Convergence
Circle using the remaining eighteen pieces of jadeite.
The Energy Convergence Circle gathered spiritual energy from the air and since
spiritual energy worked the same way as true energy, it had a positive impact on
martial artists, making their training more effective.
Since the Thompsons' mansion lacked spiritual energy, an Energy Convergence
Circle would not do much, so Leon did not waste his time building one.
However, the situation was different at the moment, as Leon specifically
gathered his subordinates near the mountain to plant an Energy Convergence
Circle.
Though the spiritual energy at the bottom of the mountain was not as pure as it
would be at the top of the mountain, the forest that surrounded them provided
enough energy for the Energy Convergence Circle to gather.
On top of that, the spiritual energy on top of the mountain was redirected to the
mansion by Leon, so it would not be effective for him to set up an Energy
Convergence Circle there. Hence, he decided to take his subordinates to the
bottom of the mountain instead.
With the help of both the Energy Convergence Circle and the Light
Convergence Circle, Chandler should be able to have a breakthrough.
