Ch. 2591..2600

The Ex Husbands Revenge Chapter 2591-"Dad, what should we do now? The Southern Boss is one of the strongest martial artists in both the Western and southern regions. If he is responsible for all these, we won't be able to retaliate," Romeo said.

The Peaks were hardly the most powerful families and the strongest martial artist in the family stopped at the SemiAlmighty State, which was miles away Naturally, Roman and the elders agreed as well.

They all know that the Peaks could not rival the Southern Boss in strength and going after him for revenge would only cause the downfall of their own family.

Instantly, their hearts sank in despair.

"Elder Peaks, don't worry! Back in the southern region, the Southern Boss was found working with one of the eight criminals and because of that, he is already wanted by the Dragon Corps. Now that he has committed murder again in the western region, I'm sure that the Dragon Guards in both the southern and western regions would go after him," Leon consoled them.

"Mister Wolf is right. Elder Peaks, don't worry. The Southern Boss has taken innocent lives, so the Dragon Corps will bring him to justice!" Howard nodded.

"Sure! Thank you, Howard!"

The Peaks were relieved to hear this.

Though the Peaks had no power in seeking revenge against the Southern Boss, Almighty State.

The Southern Boss could not possibly rival them.

So long as the Dragon Guards hunt the Southern Boss down, the Peaks could consider the debt paid and the guards that sacrificed would be avenged.

"Alright, this matter concerning the Sotuehrn Boss is important so I have to report it to my captain. Mister Wolf, Elder Peaks, if this is all, we shall leave now," Howard said.

However, before he could leave, Fletcher stopped him.

"Hang on! Howard, I need to speak with Mister Wolf," Fletcher turned to look at Leon. "Mister Wolf, would you like to come with us to the western branch office?

It's a rare opportunity that you came so I have to host you!" he invited earnestly.

He was thankful that Leon saved his life before and wanted to invite Leon back with him so he could thank Leon properly.

"Fletcher, you," Howard frowned in displeasure.

The Dragon Corps was a special organization that governed martial artists, and ordinary people were not supposed to step foot into the office.

It was rather inappropriate for Fletcher to invite an outsider to the office, but Howard was close with Fletcher and did not want to embarrass him now that he already invited Leon.

Hesitantly, he swallowed his words.

The Ex Husbands Revenge Chapter 2592-"Um, sure!" Leon agreed.

He got to know Fletcher and a few other Dragon Guards from the western region. Since he ran into Fletcher, he did not mind visiting the Dragon Corps in the western region.

"Give me a minute, though. There's something I need to take care of," Leon added and hurried to Jaxon's side. "Mister Jaxon, your condition has stabilized, but you will still need time to recover. I'm going to recite a prescription for you.

Take this daily and you should be able to recover in a month. M "Sure." Jaxon straightened his back and focused, while the other Feaks followed.

Leon recited a prescription and since the Feaks were all experts in medicine, they instantly memorized it.

Mister Wolf, thank you for saving me. I'm sorry that the culprit took the Rainbow Flower. We can't trade anymore,” Jaxon thanked Leon after memorizing the prescription.

Also, he felt guilty that he could not fulfill his promise.

"It's fine. I guess it's just my luck and the Rainbow Flower isn't meant to be mine," Leon sighed.

Despite what he said, he felt devastated.

The Rainbow Flower was a rare heavenly herb. He was so close to obtaining it, only to lose it in the end. For a moment, he was disappointed.

On top of that, the Rainbow Flower could enhance the power of martial artists in the Almighty State and increase the chances of a breakthrough.

Now that the Southern Boss had taken the flower, Loen knew that he intended to use the flower to get to the next level. Once the Southern Boss got to the Peak Almighty State with the flower, taking him down would only be more challenging.

"Oh, yeah! Grandpa, we still have that thing, right? Why don't you give it to Mister Wolf?" While observing Leon's disappointed expression, Jaxon recalled something and turned to Roman.

"Well," Roman understood what he meant right away. He was hesitant and fell into silence.

"Dad, Jaxon is right! That thing may be rare, but Mister Wolf saved Jaxon's life.

Why don't you just give that to him to show our gratitude?" Romeo said after a brief moment of hesitation.

But," Roman was still hesitant.

The Ex Husbands Revenge Chapter 2593-"It's fine. Saving people is a doctor's duty. I just helped Mister Jaxon because I happened to be around. You don’t need to give me anything," Leon shook his head and rejected their offer.

He did not know what they were talking about, but Romeo mentioned that it was something precious. Leon could tell that Roman was struggling and he could not possibly ask them to give anything to him just because he helped.

In his current possible, he was not short of money and did not need them to offer him any gift.

"Alright! Elder Feaks, if that's all, I'll get going now," Leon said and turned to leave with Fletcher.

"Hang on! Mister Wolf, please wait!" Roman gritted his teeth with determination and called out to Leon.

"What's wrong? Is there something else you need, Elder Feaks?" Leon turned around in confusion.

"Mister Wolf, Romeo, and Jaxon are right. You saved Jaxon's life and even found us the culprit who did this. You have done so much for us. To thank you, I want to give you the fruit of the Rainbow Flower," Roman said seriously.

The Feaks did not just find the Rainbow Flower, but also its fruit.

It was such a rare specimen that no one in the Feaks recognized what they were.

Hence, Roman told Jaxon to show it to others during the bouquet to see if anyone could identify it. In the end, Leon recognized it.

Since the Feaks possessed both the Rainbow Flower and the Rainbow Fruit, they did not mind trading the Rainbow Flower for the Sun Pills so long as the pills were as effective as Leon claimed.

However, the situation took an unfortunate turn.

The Southern Boss stole the Rainbow Flower and the Feaks were left with the Rainbow Fruit. Hence, Roman was hesitant to give it away.

Still, because Leon saved Jaxon's life and how Roman and the others mistook Leon for the killer, Roman felt guilty toward Leon.

In the end, he decided to give it to Leon.

"What? The Rainbow Flower's fruit?" Leon was shocked.

Leon was stunned when he realized the Feaks were talking about the Rainbow Flower's fruit.

According to the records left by Leon's ancestors, the Rainbow Flower only bloomed every thirty years and bore fruits every fifty years.

Since the flower had to grow in the valley with tremendous natural spiritual energy, it needed to absorb energy from the earth and sky to bear fruits.

This indicated that the Rainbow Fruit was extremely rare and its value was even higher than the Rainbow Flower.

The conditions needed for the Rainbow Fruit to grow were extremely demanding, so Leon did not expect the Feaks to obtain both the Rainbow Flower and the Rainbow Fruit.

For a moment, he was utterly stunned.

The Ex Husbands Revenge Chapter 2594-"Yeah! The flower was taken by the Southern Boss, but we still have the Rainbow Fruit! However, that's in our family mansion and not with me. I'll go home to get it and have it delivered to you," Roman said.

"That's wonderful!" Leon was overjoyed and excited.

He was rather disappointed that the Rainbow Flower was taken away from the Southern Boss. To his bewilderment, the Feaks possessed something even better and were willing to give it to him.

His disappointment was instantly replaced by joy.

"Elder Feaks, the Rainbow Fruit is too precious and I can't just accept it for free!

How about I honor the same deal I set with Mister Jaxon and offer the Feaks three Sun Pills and some premium Energy Nurturing Pills." Leon snapped out of it and said.

"It's fine. Mister Wolf, we mistreated you, yet you saved Jaxon's life anyway. We can't thank you properly or pay you. Just consider the Rainbow Fruit our way of saying thank you. You don't need to offer us the alchemical pills," Roman shook his head.

He knew that Jaxon was severely injured and came close to dying.

Though he did not know how Leon revived Jaxon, he could guess that it took Leon a lot of effort. Hence, it seemed reasonable to give him the Rainbow Fruit as a gesture of gratitude.

In the end, he was right.

Leon used two expensive herbs and exhausted his spiritual energy to cure Jaxon. He would not have struggled to fend off a single attack from Howard when they found him.

"It's fine! That's not related to this! The Rainbow Fruit has nothing to do with me saving Mister Jaxon. Besides, the Sun Pills can help martial artists in the SemiAlmighty State to the Almighty State. They will be useful to you! Trading the Rainbow Fruit for the Sun Pills and some Premium Energy Nurturing Pills will benefit us both," Leon smiled.

Though he did pay quite a price to cure Jaxon, the Rainbow Fruit was simply too precious and he could not bring himself to accept it without giving something in return.

Hence, he intended to trade with alchemical pills so that they all benefit.

"Mister Wolf, forgive me for asking, but can the Sun Pills get martial artists in the Semi-Almighty State to the Almighty State?" Roman asked.

Since the Feaks were hardly the most influential family in the Western region, the most powerful martial artists in the family like Roman and the elders all stopped at the SemiAlmighty State.

If the Sun Pills could indeed get martial artists in the SemiAlmighty State to the Almighty State, they would be extremely useful to them.

However, the effect of the Sun Pills sounded like it would rival with supreme spiritual herb, so the Feaks remained doubtful.

It was precisely because of this that Jaxon did not make the trade the night before, and this ended up allowing the Southern Boss to rob them.

The Ex Husbands Revenge Chapter 2595-"It's true! I swear the Sun Pills work exactly that way!" Leon promised confidently.

"Well," Roman and the others fell into silence.

If they heard this the night before, they would never have believed Leon.

However, the situation was different.

They all fought Leon after mistaking him as the killer and sensed that Leon reached the Initial Almighty State.

If that were the case, Leon's promise would sound far more convincing.

Moreover, Roman was going to give the Rainbow Fruit to Leon and Leon was the one who offered to trade with the pills.

If he was lying about the effect, there would not be a point for him to do such a thing.

Instantly, the Feaks found themselves convinced.

"Mister Wolf, since you insist on trading, I will take you up on your offer!" Roman bowed slightly with a grateful expression.

Since the Feaks were a long lineage of doctors and after over a hundred years of effort, they accumulated tremendous wealth. Their only weakness was the fact that they were not that accomplished in martial arts compared to other families.

Initially, he did not want to hand the Rainbow Fruit to Leon because he wanted to use it to reach the Almighty State, thus enhancing his family's overall strength.

However, if Leon was indeed telling the truth about the Sun Pills, three pills would help produce three martial artists in the Almighty State. Once that was achieved, they could produce their method in the Ultimate Power Class and slowly rise to the ranks of influential families.

This was far better than keeping the Rainbow Fruit, so there was no reason for him to refuse Leon's offering.

"Alright, it's settled then!" Leon said with a smile.

"Romeo, you and the second elder will stay here to look after Jaxon. Send him back to the mansion to rest. Mister Wolf, you can come with us to get the Rainbow Fruit," Roman said.

"Sure. Let's go!” Leon nodded and suddenly recalled something. He turned and found Fletcher waiting and said," Mister Caldicot, I'm going with Elder Feaks to take the Rainbow Fruit and this may take time. Why don't you head back to the branch first? I'll come look for you after I'm done! If "Um, it's fine. Mister Wolf, I've never seen a heavenly herb before. If it's okay with you, I'll go to the Feaks' mansion with you," Fletcher said.

The Southern Boss murdered to steal the Rainbow Flower and Fletcher could tell that the Rainbow Fruit was a heavenly herb as well.

It was rare for Leon to appear in the western region and Fletcher was worried Leon may run into other trouble later on as soon as he left. That may change Leon's mind about going to the Dragon Corps' western region branch, and Fletcher would not know when he could see Leon again.

With that considered, he decided to go with Leon to the Feaks' mansion and have a look at the legendary heavenly herb.

The Ex Husbands Revenge Chapter 2596-"Fletcher, what's wrong with you? We need to go back and report to the captain.

You are wasting time!" Howard was annoyed.

Inviting an outsider to the Dragon Corps branch was already inappropriate. On top of that, Fletcher now wanted to go to the Feaks' mansion with Leon and delay reporting the situation to their superior.

Howard was displeased and he could not quite understand what Fletcher was thinking.

"Howard, I'm sorry, but Mister Wolf is special. If you are in a rush, you can go back and report to Mister Orpwood. Just leave me behind." Fletcher smiled sheepishly.

Leon worked alone to eliminate the Poisonwielder and ever since Mister Orpwood found out about it, he wanted to meet Leon in person, and now was his chance.

Mister Orpwood would likely not blame Fletcher if he returned to the branch slightly later if he managed to bring Leon with him.

Hence, Fletcher was not worried.

Naturally, Leon did not want his identity to be known and Fletcher felt that it would be inappropriate to tell Howard the truth without Leon's permission.

For the moment, he could only be vague with his words.

"You! Forget it! The Feaks' mansion is along the way anyway. I'll come with you,” Howard said with displeasure.

With that, Leon, Roman, and the others left.

Meanwhile, in the Morrisons' mansion.

This was the day of the family meeting.

Early in the morning, Caleb, the elders, and other important members all arrived in the main hall for the meeting to talk about ongoing family affairs and the recent development of the family businesses.

"Alright, let's start the meeting! Please feel free to give any advice or share challenges you face," Caleb said authoritatively.

Hugo was the first to stand up. "Grandfather, I would like to speak. Please make up your mind as soon as possible about the deal between US and Cynthion Group, or we might miss a great opportunity."

He knew that Cynthion Group held great potential and that working with it would only benefit the Morrisons.

Out of concern for the greater good, Hugo wanted Caleb to set aside his pride and accept the conditions Leon proposed. If they waited any longer, something else may happen.

"Hugo, this again? I thought we'd already reached a consensus yesterday!"

Caleb frowned.

The profit Leon offered was far too low and Caleb wanted to ignore Leon for a few things to make him cave. However, Hugo kept trying to convince Caleb to reconsider and even analyzed the benefits of working with Cynthion Group.

Ultimately, Caleb decided to send one of the elders to the southern region for a further investigation into the Cynthion Group.

However, the elder did not even return yet and Hugo was already pressing on the issue.

The Ex Husbands Revenge Chapter 2597-"Yeah! Hugo, what's the rush? Just wait for the third elder to come back!"

Jayden sneered.

Both he and Caleb continued to look down on Cynthion Group like they did the day before.

"But," Unwilling to give up, Hugo opened his mouth to argue but was interrupted by Jayden.

"There's no ‘but1! Cynthion Group is offering US too little profit. It's only normal for us to consider it carefully instead of allowing them to manipulate us!" Jayden scoffed.

"Yeah, he is right!" "A business deal requires multiple negotiations and compromises. It doesn't just happen overnight!: "Cynthion Group is only offering twenty percent of profit and they are trying to trick us! We need to do what's best for US and fight for more!"

The other elders agreed along with Jayden's point of view.

Seeing how the others supported him, Jayden felt smug.

"Hugo, I know that you are close with Mister Wolf. Why don't you represent us and talk to him? Ask him to increase the profit to forty percent. This is the best we can do!" Jayden smirked and hinted that Hugo was likely bribed by Leon.

That would explain why Hugo kept trying to convince Caleb to accept such unfavorable terms.

"Yeah, he is right! We can accept forty percent of the total profit. Instead of wasting your time with me, you might as well go to Mister Wolf and get him to accept it. Once he agrees to this term, the Morrisons will partner with Cynthion Group!" Caleb nodded in agreement.

Back when he negotiated with Leon the day before, he asked for an equal division of profit, but Leon turned him down.

He compromised and felt that he was being generous for demanding forty percent of the profit.

The one thing that was different for Caleb was that he did not think Leon bribed Hugo. He merely thought that Hugo was close with Leon and wanted Hugo to make good use of this connection to increase the share they could get.

That ought to satisfy everyone in the deal.

"What? That's not possible!" Hugo was shocked. "Grandfather, don't listen to Uncle Jayden. We only need to help supply herbs and with marketing, so there's no risk on our end if we work with Cynthion Group. It's already quite generous of them to offer US twenty percent of the total profit. He would never agree to give US forty percent."

He knew that Caleb and Jayden refused to seal the deal immediately because they wanted to obtain more. However, Cynthion Group was no ordinary pharmaceutical firm and did not have to rely on the Morrisons.

If they insisted on getting forty percent of the total profit, they would only embarrass themselves because Leon would never agree to such unreasonable terms.

The Ex Husbands Revenge Chapter 2598-"Why is it impossible? Cynthion Group is only responsible for producing the pills, whereas we provide herbs and make marketing arrangements. We will be putting in more work than them! All we are asking is forty percent of the total profit, so that's a good deal!” Jayden scoffed.

"Uncle Jayden, I don't agree with you! The alchemical pills are the core value of Cynthion Group. There isn't another company that can produce pills that aid martial artists' training in both the southern and western regions. The same can't be said about US. If we don't agree to Cynthion Group's terms, they can choose to work with another family! Once others witness the effect of the pills, they will all fight for a chance to work with Cynthion Group," Hugo argued.

There was a distance between the southern and western regions and it was normal that some of the families in the western region did not hear of Cynthion Group. However, the news would travel fast.

Leon came to the western region to expand Cynthion Group's market.

Soon, families in the western region would learn about Cynthion Group.

Hugo only worked this hard to convince Caleb to accept Leon's terms because he needed to close the deal with Cynthion Group before other families found out.

Once others learned about Cynthion Group and the great potential within it, they would all reach out to Cynthion Group to form partnerships. When that happened, it would be rather challenging for the Morrisons to work with Cynthion Group.

One must say that Hugo was very perceptive.

During the bouquet the night before, Leon already took the opportunity to spread the name of Cynthion Group.

After witnessing the effects of the pills, countless people fought for a chance to work with Cynthion Group.

At the moment, Hugo did not know about that and would only panic further if he did.

"No way! The alchemical pills may help martial artists with their training, but they are just slightly more effective than herbs! It's not that big a deal and other families won't be interested. Besides, the Cynthion Group isn't a company from around here and doesn't influence the area. If they want to find their place in the western region, they will have to rely on US or they won't be able to do much!"

Jayden sneered.

When Hugo returned from the southern region, he brought home some premium Energy Nurturing Pills and three Supreme Pure Energy Pills.

They witnessed the effect of the premium Energy Nurturing Pills and they could only enhance martial artists' power to a limited extent.

That was all.

The western region was known for having an abundant supply of rare herbs that could help martial artists with their training, so the alchemical pills produced by Cynthion Group were not all that unique.

Since the profit Leon offered was too low, Jayden did not think that any other influential family would want to work with Cynthion Group.

Hence, he kept looking down on Leon and Cynthion Group and did not take the alchemical pills seriously.

What he did not know was that the premium Energy Nurturing Pills could also increase the chances of a breakthrough. On top of that, there were also Supreme Pure Energy Pills and Sun Pills that worked more effectively.

He was simply too arrogant to see the actual value in the alchemical pills.

The Ex Husbands Revenge Chapter 2599-Well," Hugo froze and found himself rendered speechless because Jayden was right.

In terms of effect, the premium Energy Nurturing Pills worked similarly with rare herbs.

Though he knew that the Energy Nurturing Pills could also enhance chances for a breakthrough, it was not certain and he did not witness it before. Hence, he could not quite argue with Jayden.

On top of that, Caleb and the elders supported Jayden and were dead set on fighting for more profit. No matter how hard Hugo tried, he could not get Caleb to agree to the deal.

With Jayden's interference, things kept getting more complicated.

Feeling devastated, he did not know what to do.

Just as he fell into despair, something unexpected happened.

A melodious voice rose and Renee hurried inside. "You don't know the half of it!"

"Renee, why are you here?" Hugo was slightly shocked.

Renee was too young and held no power in the family business. Hence, Renee was never invited to the family meeting, nor did she want to be.

This was the very first time she showed up in the meeting and the fact that she barged in while the meeting was going on caught Hugo by surprise.

"Hugo, I came to report something important to Grandfather!" Renee said.

After attending Jaxon's bouquet the night before, plenty of people witnessed the effect of the alchemical pills and they all fought to work with Cynthion Group.

She knew about this and was smart enough to tell that this was not a good thing for the Morrisons.

She instantly realized that she had to report this to Caleb and get him to seal the deal with Cynthion Group before others did.

Unfortunately, after what happened with Felton the night before, she got home late and woke up later than usual, so she did not have the chance to tell Caleb what happened.

It was not until now that she hurried over to speak to Caleb.

"Grandfather, Hugo is right! We can't drag this on any further! If other families get ahead of US and partner with Cynthion Group, it'll be too late for us," Renee said hastily.

Just as she was about to explain what happened the night before, Jayden interrupted her. "Renee, what is wrong with you and Hugo? Are you two under Mister Wolfs spell or something? Why would you work together to make US accept such unfavorable terms? Are you trying to be traitors that sacrifice this family's gain for Cynthion Group?" Jayden said mockingly.

The Ex Husbands Revenge Chapter 2600-"Renee, enough with your nonsense! The deal with Cynthion Group is a business matter. You are still too young to know anything about this, so don't get involved!" Caleb said sternly to Renee.

He assumed that Renee was influenced by Hugo and did not take her seriously.

The other elders shared the same view.

Renee did not play an important role in the family business and she did not know doing business. If even Hugo failed to convince them to accept Leon's terms, Renee, who had no expertise in the matter, could not possibly succeed.

No one was going to compromise and cave to Leon's terms over a few words she said.

"Grandfather, I'm not messing around. I'm just telling the truth! You don't know this yet, but during Jaxon's bouquet last night, a lot of the guests tried to work with Cynthion, including influential families like the Dagleshs. If we keep dragging this on, I'm afraid that some other family may snatch the opportunity away," Renee said, before proceeding to explain what happened during the bouquet the night before.

"What?"

Caleb and the others could not believe what they were hearing.

They thought that the Cynthion Group had no connection in the western region and had to rely on the Morrisons to establish itself here.

To their bewilderment, Leon already made Cynthion Group's name known amongst the younger generation over a single night. On top of that, countless people fought for a chance to work with Cynthion Group.

This was so surreal that they were taken aback.

"Renee, are you sure? Were there really powerful families offering to work with Cynthion Group?" Caleb snapped out of it and asked.

He only delayed accepting Leon's offer because he wanted to fight for more profit, but he never meant to push Cynthion Group away to another family.

However, there were other families now fighting for this opportunity, including the Dagleshs.

Insignificant families would not be able to compete against the Morrisons, but the Dagleshs were comparable to the Morrisons in terms of influence and power, so they would be a threat.

Instantly, Caleb lost his composure.

"It's true!" Renee nodded seriously.

"Damn it! How can this happen?" Caleb and the others' expressions darkened as their hearts sank.

Upon learning that there were other competitors, their earlier confidence was now replaced by panic.
