Ch. 861..870
The Ex-Husband’s Revenge chapter 861
Iris was no longer a part of the Youngs, so he could pursue Iris without any worries. His chances of success were very high as well, so how could he just watch on as Jaocb used despicable means to take Iris away?!
“Mister Collins, she’s just a woman. It’s nothing that amazing! We’re both friends. Are you really going to turn against me for a woman?” Jacob said coldly.
“I should be the one asking you that!” Jacob, are you sure you want to make an enemy out of me and the Collins?!” Anson said coldly.
“You!”
Facing Anson’s threats, Jacob suddenly felt incredibly uncertain.
The Lowes might not be able to face the Collins, who were one of the four great families, head on, but his father already seized control of the Youngs.
With the Youngs‘ help, he would not be afraid of the Collins at all, nor would he be afraid of Anson!
However, thinking about his father’s grand plans, he hesitated.
Their greatest enemy at that moment was Leon. His father planned on dealing with Leon and the Shears next!
Of course, Leon and the Shears were not going to be easy to deal with. If Harold wanted to destroy Leon and the Shears, they would probably need the help of the Fields and the Collins!
If he made an enemy out of Anson, then it would definitely be bad for his father and the family!
“Mister Collins, you’re putting things too far! We’re both friends, how could I make an enemy out of you for the sake of a woman? Since you like Iris so much, then I’ll give her to you today. I hope you’ll be happy with
her!”
Jacob smiled in a carefree manner.
He was different from Anson. Anson truly liked Iris, and pursued Iris sincerely.
He was just lusting over Iris’s looks. To him, Iris was not that important.
There were plenty of beautiful women in the world. For the sake of the bigger picture, he would not offend Anson for Iris. It was better to give Iris to Anson to curry some favor.
“Alright, Mister Lowe, thank you for this.”
Anson looked much calmer since Jacob took a step back.
“Let’s go!”
With a wave, Jacob motioned for the two experts to let Iris go. After that, he led his men and left.
Looking at Jacob slowly go away, Iris, Gilbert and the others slowly regained their calm. They breathed a sigh
of relief.
“Anson, thank you for this.”
Gilbert did not forget to thank Anson.
“Mister Young, you’re too kind. Iris and I are friends, this isn’t worth mentioning!”
Anson let out a humble smile. He looked well–mannered and dignified, like an otherworldly prince.
It was just a pity that Gilbert and the others knew that he was a known playboy in Springfield City, so it tarnished his image quite a bit.
However, Iris was able to escape this difficult situation thanks to him. Even if Iris did not like how he was, she was still quite thankful.
“Anson, you wouldn’t have come here without any reason. Do you have something you need?” Gilbert asked curiously.
“Mister Young, I won’t hide it. I’ve always liked Iris a lot. This time, I heard that you and Iris were harmed and schemed against, being forced out of the Youngs. I was worried and came to see if I could help you.”
Anson spoke with a smile on his face. He would constantly glance at Iris’s stunning appearance, looking incredibly captivated.
The Ex-Husband’s Revenge chapter 862
He came to help them in such a dire moment. Right when Iris and Gilbert needed help the most, he planned on taking the chance to help Iris in hopes of winning her favor!
It happened precisely as he wanted to. He came in like a knight in shining armor to save Iris, and Iris’s impression of him improved a lot.
“You came to help us?”
Gilbert was surprised.
The Collins were one of the four great families. They had incredible power and wealth. If he could secure Anson and the family’s help, it would be much easier for him and Iris to get back to their family or even seize control of the family!
“That’s right! Mister Young, if you need my help in any way, I’ll definitely do my best for you!” Anson said.
“Good, that’s amazing! Anson, if you can help me and Iris return to the Youngs, the two of us will be endlessly grateful!” Gilbert could not help but laugh happily.
He knew that Anson was only willing to help because Anson was after Iris.
If it were before, he would never have considered someone with Anson’s reputation.
However, times were different. Iris and him were at a low point, and needed a lot of help.
Anson was also humble and polite as well. Anson was far better than Jacob. Anson was also sincere, unlike how Jacob tried to force things with despicable methods!
In the end, other than Anson’s reputation as a playboy, he was found in every other way!
Of course,
the most important thing was the fact that Anson truly loved his daughter, Iris. If Iris ended up together with Anson, Anson would definitely not mistreat Iris.
For the sake of his daughter’s happiness as well as his position with the Youngs, Gilbert was obviously very pleased with Anson.
“Mister Collins, thank you for your kind intentions. I’ll take it to heart. However, I’ll figure this out myself, there’s no need to trouble the Collins!” Iris frowned, politely rejecting Anson’s help.
Nothing came free in the world. She knew very well that she would need to accept Anson if she wanted Anson and the Collins‘ help!
In the end, Anson’s goal was not that different from Jacob’s. Both of them merely wanted her hand in marriage!
However, comparing the two, Anson was at least sincere toward her. Anson was willingly trying to help her as well, not trying to force her hand in marriage. It meant he was far more sincere than Jacob!
If Jacob was a sly and petty man, then Anson could at least be called a gentleman. At least, Anson was open with his intentions, and did not disgust her!
“Iris, what are you doing? Anson is doing this just to help you, why would you reject it?!” Gilbert said unhappily.
“Dad, I’ll be honest. Leon is the one I like! I won’t accept anyone other than him,” Iris said calmly.
“Iris, why would you do this to yourself? I can understand your feelings for Leon, but he’s about to get married to Cynthia. The two of you won’t get back together. There’s no point in continuing to dwell on it.”
Gilbert sighed.
He was still very supportive of Iris getting back together with Leon before that, but when he found out that Leon was about to get engaged to Cynthia, he dismissed the thought immediately.
“Whether I can get back together with Leon or not, I need to at least try!”
The Ex-Husband’s Revenge chapter 863
“Basically I’m going to explain everything to him right now. I might be able to get him back!” Iris said firmly.
As she said that, she turned around and walked out.
“No, you can’t go! Leon is already something of the past. You should keep looking forward. Anson is your best choice at the moment!” Gilbert pushed his wheelchair and hurriedly tried to stop IRIS.
In truth, he stopped Iris in one part because Leon was about to get engaged to Cynthia, but the other part
was because of Anson’s pursuit of Iris.
Even though Leon was incredibly capable, Leon was still an orphan in the end. Even if Leon was willing to get back together with Iris, Leon would not be able to help him return to the family that much.
However, Anson was different. If Iris could accept Anson, then with the power and wealth of the Collins, it would not be that difficult for him to regain control of the family!
“Dad, you kept on forcibly interfering with me and Leon for the sake of the family in the past, causing me to hurt Leon over and over again. Now, are you going to do the same thing for the sake of your own benefits?!” Iris said coldly, immediately seeing through Gilbert’s true goal.
Initially, she was too naive, constantly being influenced by her father and ending up misplacing the blame and hurting Leon.
Yet, at that moment, Leon gave her anything. She knew very well that her trust in Leon would not sway no matter how Gilbert tried to stop her!
“You!”
Gilbert’s expression soured, but there was nothing he could say.
He knew that Iris was right. If he did not interfere, then Iris and Leon never would have broken up in the first place, and things would not have ended up like this!
It was all his fault. He was the one who brought it on himself and dragged his daughter down with him!
“Mister Young, it’s fine. Since Iris wants to go look for Leon, then let her. When she realizes the truth, I think she’ll definitely change her mind!” Anson said in a placating manner. His expression was incredibly calm.
He knew of Leon’s situation. The fact that Leon managed to reach his heights was mostly thanks to the help and support of the Shears.
Leon was about to get engaged to Cynthia. If Leon went back on his words at that moment and got back together with Iris, it would definitely hurt Cynthia greatly and even tarnish the Shears‘ reputation. Then, both sides would become enemies, which would be fatal for Leon!
It was obvious that the price was too heavy to pay. As long as Leon was not an idiot, there was no way Leon would get back together with Iris!
So, Anson was not worried about the matter at all.
Gilbert had a sudden thought in mind when he saw how calm Anson was. He quickly understood what Anson meant.
Since there was no way Iris and Leon would get back together, there was no need for him to stop Iris. It was better for Gilbert to let Iris try. Once Iris saw that it was impossible, she would be able to completely give up on Leon!
“Fine, then go look for Leon!” Gilbert gave way, no longer stopping Iris.
“Iris, I’ll go with you to see Leon.”
“I’ll go too!”
Ariel and Louisa both walked over.
When they found out that Leon was getting engaged to Cynthia, both of them were a bit worried. They wanted to follow Iris to see if there was anything they could help with.
Iris nodded.
The situation was already different, and she lacked any confidence. She felt a bit more at ease with Louisa and Ariel with her.
Looking at Iris and the others leave, a pleased smile could be seen on Anson’s face.
The Ex-Husband’s Revenge chapter 864
Leon was his greatest love rival. As long as Leon and Iris failed to get back together this time, he could take the opportunity to fill Iris’s broken heart!
Just thinking about it made him happy!
At the Shear Mansion, one of Leon’s hands was wrapped in bandages as he recuperated on the bed.
Since he took a Dragon Pill when he was at the Youngs, he was in a period of weakness, and felt powerless.
By his side, Cynthia was taking care of Leon. She had some medicine meant for helping with replenishing blood in her hand, feeding Leon as she showed a happy smile on her face.
She waited for Leon for so long, and her hard work finally paid off. She was finally with Leon.
It was obvious how happy she was!
Her smile never left her face from the moment she got back.
At that moment, footsteps were heard. One of the guards quickly walked over from outside.
“Miss Shear, there’s a girl outside called Iris Young who says she wants to meet Mister Wolf for something,” The guard reported.
“Iris? Why is she here?!”
Cynthia was shocked. The smile on her face quickly vanished.
“She did not say!” The guard answered honestly.
“No! Tell her Leon is recuperating right now. He doesn’t have time to see her!” Cynthia said coldly.
Even though she did not know what Iris’s intentions were, she could easily guess that Iris coming to see Leon at this moment was definitely not a good thing!
“Yes,” The guard accepted his orders and prepared to leave when Leon stopped him.
“Wait!”
“Cynthia, she’s still a visitor. Let’s go see her,” Leon said weakly, struggling to get up from the bed.
“Leon, just look at how Iris treats you. She constantly hurt you, so what’s the point of seeing her?” Cynthia said unhappily.
“It’s possible she needs to see me about something important. I don’t mind meeting her for a bit,” Leon said. calmly.
Even though she already gave up on his feelings for Iris and even gave Iris a final farewell through Ariel, was not a cold blooded person.
Iris and him were just not meant to be, but it did not mean they were suddenly enemies.
he
With their old relationship in mind, he would consider helping Iris if she had anything important that she needed his help with.
It was separate from his feelings.
“But-”
Cynthia could understand what Leon meant, but she was still a bit worried. She was worried that Leon and Iris would rekindle their old feelings.
“Don’t worry, worry, since I’ve already agreed to get engaged to you, it means you’re my fiance. I’ll never betray you in this lifetime!” Leon could tell what Cynthia was worried about. He grabbed Cynthia’s hand and gave a serious promise.
“Yes, I believe in you,” Cynthia’s heart melted.
She was different from Iris. She always trusted Leon a great deal. With Leon’s promise, all her worries completely vanished.
Outside, Cynthia got the guards to get a wheelchair. After that, she pushed Leon out. They quickly saw Iris,
Ariel and Louisa.
“Leon, what happened to you?”
Iris and the others were shocked to see Leon sitting on a wheelchair, looking so powerless. They could not help but let out looks of concern.
The Ex-Husband’s Revenge chapter 865
“I’m fine, it’s just some minor injuries.”
Leon smiled calmly.
Even though things between him and Iris did not end that happily, he was still close to Ariel and Louisa. They were his two good friends.
He felt very warm in his heart at their concern.
“Leon, I’m sorry. I hurt you so much,” Iris said regretfully.
“It’s fine, I did it all willingly,” Leon smiled in a nonchalant manner.
Love was something where one did not expect anything in return anyway. He sacrificed so much for Iris willingly.He could not blame anyone else for it.
“Miss Young, did you need me for something?” Leon asked in a straightforward manner, even changing what he called Iris.
Since he decided to give up on his feelings for Iris and was about to get engaged to Cynthia, he needed to clearly draw the line with Iris and keep a distance. That was basic.
Iris felt a stab in her heart at the term of address.
However, she knew that it was all her own doing. If she did not constantly hurt Leon, then her relationship with Leon would not have ended up at this stage!
“Leon, it’s all my fault. Whether it’s when we broke up or even at the Young residence, I misunderstood you and wrongly blamed you. I came here to apologize to you.”
“W–will you forgive me?”
Iris bit her lips as she sincerely apologized to Leon.
Leon was taken aback, quickly understanding that Iris probably already found out the truth, and finally chose to believe in him.
“It’s all already in the past. There’s nothing to forgive anymore. As long as you believe that I’m innocent, then it’s enough.”
Leon sighed, feeling a pang in his heart, but there was a sense of relief as well.
The moment he was kicked out by the Youngs, he was constantly thinking about proving his innocence.
He finally managed to wash away the crimes that were wrongfully attributed to him through his hard work.
There was no longer anything for him to regret!
“Leon, I know I was wrong. I’ve actually always loved you. Let’s get back together, okay?” Iris summoned up her courage as she looked at Leon incredibly hopefully.
“What? You want to get back together with me?” Leon was shocked.
He thought that his relationship with Iris was already at an end. He never expected that Iris would actually
ask to get back together with him. It caused him to panic.
Of course, it was not just Leon, Cynthia was even more shocked.
She was about to get engaged to Leon, but Iris actually appeared at such a crucial moment to ask Leon to get back together. There was no way she could keep calm!
“Iris, are you shameless? You’ve constantly hurt Leon, how could you still bring yourself to ask him to get back together?” Iris berated.
Iris ignored Cynthia as she said anxiously, “Leon, I really do know the error of my ways now. I didn’t hurt you on purpose. Can you please give me another chance?”
“I-”
Leon opened his mouth, but his heart felt incredibly turbulent.
Even though he already decided to give up on his feelings for Iris, Iris was still the woman he loved the most. He just buried those feelings, but there was no way he could completely wipe them away so quickly.
Iris asking to get back together like that was like a massive stone being thrown into the lake in his heart, quickly causing massive waves to form.
The Ex-Husband’s Revenge chapter 866
“Leon, you can’t say yes!”
Cynthia paled as she looked at Leon with worry.
She knew of Leon’s feelings for Iris, and she could tell that Leon was starting to sway as well. If there were no surprises, Leon would probably leave her and return to Iris’s side.
Just thinking about that made her incredibly sad.
Seeing Cynthia so sad was like a wake up call for Leon.
If it was before, he would probably have agreed to get back together with Iris.
However, he already agreed to get engaged to Cynthia. It was just not too long ago that he made Cynthia a lifelong promise as well.
If he went back on his words, it would definitely hurt Cynthia immensely!
He would not do that to Cynthia.
When he just broke up with Iris, he felt the pain deeply. It was a kind of pain that pierced through his heart and seeped into his bones. He was almost completely drowned by the pain.
Since he did not want to withstand that pain himself, there was no way he would be willing to harm Cynthia!
Furthermore, Iris constantly distrusted and hurt him.
On the other hand, Cynthia was always by his side when he needed someone the most. She silently gave so much.
him
If he gave up on Cynthia and chose to get back together with Iris, he would never be able to forgive himself!
After a long time, Leonfinalyl made a decision.
“Miss Young, I’m sorry. I can’t get back together with you.”
Leon shook his head as he firmly rejected Iris’s request.
Boom!
The moment that was said, it was like a bomb that deeply shocked everyone there.
Cynthia in particular thought that Leon would definitely have accepted Iris’s request. Yet, she never expected that Leon actually rejected Iris for her sake!
At that moment, she was incredibly excited and happy!
“Great, this is great! Leon, I love you so much!”
Cynthia was ecstatic. She hugged Leon excitedly, and the happiness on her face was evident.
The exact opposite of Cynthia, Iris looked like she was struck by lightning as she froze.
“W–why?” Iris paled as her body started to sway.
Even before she came to see Leon, she already knew that Leon might not agree to get back together.
However, she was still struck deeply when she heard Leon rejecting her personally.
She could not accept the cruel truth!
“Miss Young, I’ll say this again. Things between the two of us are already in the past. Cynthia is my fiance now. I can’t hurt her!” Leon said calmly.
His thoughts were very simple, if it was before he accepted Cynthia, he would have considered accepting Iris.
However, he already had a new girlfriend, and Cynthia could even be considered his fiance. There was no way he would give up on Cynthia for Iris!
It was an immoral and irresponsible thing to do!
“Leon, you idiot! Don’t you know that Iris already looked for you to get back together a long time ago? It was just that she was tried by Cynthia.‘
Louisa could no longer stand it. She started to jump in frustration.
“What did you say? Iris looked for me to get back together? T–that’s impossible! How did I not know that?!“
The Ex-Husband’s Revenge chapter 867
Leon was shocked. He looked like he was in disbelief.
“Of course you wouldn’t know! Last time, Iris went to Cynthion Group to ask you to get back together, but she was tricked and lied to by Cynthia, and ended up thinking that you were already together with Cynthia. Cynthia is the cause of everything. If Cynthia didn’t interfere, Iris would never have been influenced and hurt you over and over.”
Louisa was incredibly frustrated as she explained everything.
When he heard all of that, Leon looked incredibly uncertain. After that, he turned to look at Cynthia, asking, ” Cynthia, is what Louisa said true?”
“I-”
Cynthia’s face started to redden. She opened her mouth but did not say anything.
After all, she really did do all of that. Louisa did not lie, and she did not know what to say.
“Why did you lie to me?” Leon’s expression sank.
It was not hard to tell from Cynthia’s expression that what Louisa said was true!
“Leon, I’m sorry, I didn’t lie to you on purpose. I just like you too much and didn’t want to lose you. That’s why I did that.”
Cynthia’s eyes reddened. She was about to cry from the panic.
“You!”
Leon looked incredibly frustrated at that moment.
However, he knew how Cynthia felt about him. It was perfectly logical that Cynthia would have pulled some tricks to be with him.
In the end, everything was caused by Iris’s distrust for him. If Iris actually trusted him, then Iris would not have been fooled by Cynthia’s little tricks.
At the very least, Iris should have given him a chance to explain, but Iris did not do that.
“Leon, I really can’t live without you. C–can you forgive me?”
Cynthia grabbed Leon’s hand as she looked at Leon tearfully, worried she would lose Leon because of this.
“It’s fine, it’s fine. We’re not saints. You’re my fiance. I won’t blame you. Just don’t do it again,” Leon patted Cynthia’s hand as he consoled her.
Even though Cynthia crossed the line a little, Cynthia still did everything for him. It was incredibly hard to find a girl who would love him as deeply as Cynthia, and he needed to properly appreciate her!
It was possibly because Iris did not appreciate his love, but he treasured Cynthia’s love for him even more!
“Really? That’s great!” Cynthia was very happy and emotional. She immediately smiled in relief.
Seeing that, Iris completely lost all hope.
She thought that Leon would leave Cynthia without any hesitation after learning about that, choosing to get back with her.
However, all her hopes were completely shattered!
“Leon, what are you doing?”
“Cynthia lied to you, but you’re going to forgive her just like that? Then, what is Iris going to do?” Louisa said angrily.
“That’s right! Leon, Iris always loved you. She truly wants to get back together with you! Are you not going to forgive her and give her another chance?” Ariel said.
“Louisa, Ariel, I’m very sorry. Some things just have to remain in the past. We can’t go back to how things were.”
“My heart is already exhausted. You should just go back!” Leon sighed and said.
It was not that he did not give Iris any chances. Ever since he was kicked out by the Youngs, he already gave Iris too many chances. However, the only thing he got in return was Iris constantly hurting him!
The Ex-Husband’s Revenge chapter 868
He was already riddled with wounds, and his heart was completely damaged. He even planned on giving up on his feelings for Iris and starting a new life.
How could he accept Iris’s feelings again?!
“Leon, are you really going to be so heartless to me?” Iris bit her lips as she looked at Leon sadly, forcing herself to hold her tears in.
“It’s not being heartless, things are just over between us! If you’re willing, we can still be friends in the future, but when it comes to love, we should just stop here!” Leon said calmly.
“Alright, you said this yourself. Don’t regret it!”
Iris was just too sad facing Leon’s cold demeanor. She no longer had the courage to stay there as she turned around and ran.
Only, as she was turning around, two tears dropped from her eyes.
“Leon, you idiot!”
Louisa was incredibly frustrated as she glared at Leon. After that, she hurriedly ran after Iris.
“Leon, take care of yourself!”
Ariel had a complicated expression on her face as she looked at Leon before following Louisa.
Looking at the three women leaving, Leon shut his eyes painfully.
Even though he acted very calmly in front of Iris, Iris was still the woman he loved deeply. He personally rejected Iris’s request to get back together, but he did not feel good about it.
However, there was no turning back in life. Since he already agreed to get engaged to Cynthia, then he could not betray and hurt Cynthia!
It was his duty and responsibility as a man!
“Leon, are you alright?” Cynthia could not help but ask with concern, feeling Leon’s sadness.
“I’m fine, let’s go back.”
Leon took a deep breath, pushing down his feelings for Iris before he motioned for Cynthia to push him back.
to rest.
Right at that moment, they heard the sound of engines. Two high–end luxury cars were driving over from
afar.
Right after that, the doors opened. Vincent and Snow walked out of the car with a few men.
“Mister Poole, Snow, why are you two here?” Leon greeted them.
“Oh, I heard you were injured by Harold, so I came to see how. How are youe injuries?” Vincent asked.
What happened with the Youngs was no secret for most of the major families in Springfield City. Whether it was Leon making a scene and getting injured by Harold, or Gilbert and Iris being forced out of the family,
Vincent already heard of it all.
“I’m fine, it’s just some minor injuries. It’s nothing bad,” Leon said with a smile.
“It’s good that you’re fine! Leon, I heard that Harold is already at the Overlord State. Is that true?” Vincent said.
He was bitter rivals with Harold. The two of them never got along. He had two reasons he looked for Leon this time. First was to see if Leon was fine, and second was to ask Leon if Harold really did make a breakthrough. That way, he would at least be prepared.
“Yes, he is.”
Leon nodded before telling Vincent everything briefly.
“I can’t believe Harold got to the Overlord State so quickly. How did he do it?!”
Vincent frowned, unable to stop the admiration and jealousy from showing on his face.
The Overlord State was the second big obstacle for martial artists. It was not easy to reach that level.
The Ex-Husband’s Revenge chapter 869
Harold was at the same level as him. Both of them were at the Semi Overlord State, and no one could trump the other.
However, Harold was already far above him at that moment. It would be very difficult for him to face Harold head on in the future!
He suddenly felt like he was in grave danger, but there was nothing he could do.
“It’s probably because Harold got lucky.”
Leon had a sudden thought in mind, and seemed to understand something.
When they were with the Youngs, he suspected that Harold managed to get to the Overlord State so easily in part thanks to him robbing Quinton. Otherwise, Harold would not have made an enemy of the Hunts for just three Pure Energy Pills!
Thinking about it, he suddenly realized that it was very possible that Harold used those three Pure Energy Pills to get to the Overlord state!
That was not the important point. The most important point was that he was the person who made the Pure Energy Pills. He understood the nature of the Pure Energy Pills more than anyone else. If Harold was able to use the Pure Energy Pills to produce an Overlord State expert, then he should be able to as well!
With that in mind, Leon suddenly had a bold thought. He looked right at Vincent and asked, “Mister Poole, do you want to get to the Overlord State as well?”
“Of course I do, it’s been my dream my whole life!” Vincent said without any hesitation.
The Overlord State was a level many martial artists could only dream of. Vincent was no exception. Getting to the Overlord State was his biggest dream all these years!
It was just a pity that getting to the Overlord State was incredibly difficult. From his situation at that moment, it would take him at least three to five years of hard work to get to the Overlord State.
“I might be able to help you break through to the Overlord state!” Leon said seriously.
Harold was his enemy. He could not just let Harold get whatever Harold wanted!
If he could replicate Harold’s methods and get Vincent to the Overlord State, he would not only be helping Vincent, but would also be able to use Vincent’s strength to restrict Harold in the future!
It was perfect!
“What? Can you help me get to the Overlord State? Don’t joke around!” Vincent was shocked and in disbelief.
The Semi Overlord State and the Overlord State had a massive gulf between them. Many of the older generation in Springfield City failed to get to the Overlord State even after bitterly trying their whole lives.
Yet, Leon actually claimed that he could help Vincent get to the Overlord State. There was no way Vincent could believe that!
“I’m not joking. I’m telling you the truth!” Leon said seriously.
The Pure Energy Pills could help martial artists who were not yet at the Overlord State improve their strength and increase their level. The Semi Overlord State was a part of that.
Even though it was incredibly unlikely for a Pure Energy Pill to help someone get to the Overlord State, three Pure Energy Pills would undoubtedly compound their effects and greatly increase the chances of breaking through.
However, normally speaking, a warrior could take one Pure Energy Pill at one time at most. Taking more would definitely harm them, and the body might not be able to withstand the pure energy and explode!
Leon did not know how Harold managed to absorb three Pure Energy Pills at the same time, but he could more or less guess it. There were many strange abilities in the world. It was possible that Harold had some secret method to stimulate one’s potential.
He guessed that Harold definitely used that secret method to absorb three Pure Energy Pills in one go, reaching the Overlord State!
Of course, it might be a problem for anyone else, but it would not be a problem for Leon!
The Ex-Husband’s Revenge chapter 870
His ancestors left him so much information. There were some secret methods meant to stimulate the
potential of the human body. All of those secret methods were related to medical skills, and they were compiled in great detail.
As for the Pure Energy Pills, he had a few with him that could be used at that moment.
He already had everything he needed, so it would not be hard for him to help Harold get to the Overlord State at all!
“Mister Poole, I’ll be honest with you. Even though I can’t guarantee you’ll get to the Overlord State, I can do my best to try. The chances for success should be very high,” Leon said earnestly.
“Try? How could you recklessly try with something like this. If anything happens, the results would be disastrous!” Vincent was even more shocked.
He finally understood that Leon was just trying to use him as a guinea pig.
If it was anything else, he could try his best to help Leon, but breaking through levels was incredibly important. If they were not careful, he might even end up becoming a cripple!
There was no way he could risk his own life like that!
“That’s right! Leon, the path of a martial artist is one built on hard work. There are no shortcuts! It’s impossible for you to help my father reach the Overlord State. You shouldn’t waste your efforts!” Snow hurriedly said.
The Overlord State was an incredibly hard and rare level to reach. She never heard about anyone helping another person get to the Overlord State before. She did not think Leon could do it unless there was a miracle!
“Leon, I feel like this might not be very reliable. I think you should just forget about it!” Cynthia shook her head and said.
Even Cynthia, who always had faith in Leon, felt like Leon’s idea was too crazy!
If Leon really managed to help Vincent reach the Overlord State, then would it not be absurd?
Leon would just need to casually bring up a few Overlord State martial artists in the future, and he would be unstoppable.
It did not sound realistic at all!
Leon was a bit frustrated at how all three of them seemed to reject and doubt his thoughts.
“Mister Poole, don’t worry. I have a lot of confidence in this experiment! Honestly, even if the experiment fails, I can guarantee you that you’ll be fine. I won’t let anything bad happen to you!” Leon consoled.
“No, it’s just too dangerous!” Vincent hesitated for a moment, but rejected Leon in the end.
“Mister Poole, I truly want to help you. Are you really not going to trust me? Think about it, this is your only chance to quickly get to the Overlord State. Whether it succeeds or not, there’s no harm in you trying! If you miss out on this chance, you won’t get any more chances in the future!” Leon said reluctantly.
He really wanted to help Vincent out of the kindness of his heart. It was an amazing opportunity, but Vincent rejected him.
It was obvious how he would feel!
“That-“Vincent was speechless.
Becoming an Overlord State expert was his greatest wish. It was incredibly tempting, so he was definitely moved by the idea.
He suddenly thought of Harolld.
The two of them were kings of the underworld. With Harold getting to the Overlord State, Harold firmly exceeded him. If there were no surprises, Harold would definitely target him in the future, taking over the whole underworld!
Nothing good would be waiting for Vincent if that happened!
