Ch. 1381..1390
Chapter 1381Everybody’s eyes gleamed fiercely upon hearing Robert’s offer.That is an amazing offer! It is perfect against Levi.“That’s right! We can get Cora to lift the restraining order and allow you to be together with your family again. You can all live under the same roof once more.”“That is definitely something we can promise.”“Think long and hard about it. This medicine won’t be of much use to you in your current state, and if you refuse to hand it over, you will never see Zoey and Evie again!”Everyone spoke endlessly.Everyone thought that their conditions were unbeatable and that Levi would never reject them.That was understandable since they thought that he didn’t have what it takes to reunite with his family.To their surprise, Levi rejected their offer right away and said, “There is no need for that. I will go pick them up in three months, and I am not in a hurry.”Levi wanted the Great Family of Westford to protect his wife and daughter for now, so there was he would take them home now when things might get dangerous.Besides, he could take them home whenever he wanted. As such, it doesn’t make sense for him to forgo something so precious just to get what he already had.Those were something that Meredith and the others never anticipated.“Huh?”Everyone was stunned to hear what Levi said.“You’ll pick them up in three months? It’s not as simple as you think, you know? You can’t exactly lie to bring them back.”“Did you not hear the rules earlier, Levi? You need to be powerful enough before you can see them.”“Exactly! You will have to be the God of War again to qualify for it.”Everyone was quick to remind Levi of the conditions that were laid out.“You don’t need to know about the details. All you need to know is that in three months, all of you, including the Great Family of Westford, will stand idly by and shut up as I take Zoey and Evie home,” announced Levi confidently.“Are you insane? What difference could three months make?”No one understood why Levi was that confident or why he said something like that aloud.He can barely take care of himself as it is. How is he going to gain the approval of the Great Family of Westford? That is impossible!“So you’re determined to keep the medicine to yourself. Is that it?”Everyone glared at Levi.Levi nodded and replied, “That’s right. The medicine belongs to me, and it has no f*cking business with you! I can feed it to the dog, and you still can’t complain about it!”Boom!Levi’s words infuriated everyone.How dare he say that we are worth less than a mutt?“Levi Garrison, don’t you care about your wife and kid? If we…”Jennie got restless and went as far as trying to use Zoey and Forlevia to threaten Levi.“Do you have the guts to do so?” challenged Levi as he glared icily at her.Even if Levi didn’t attack, Cora would punish anyone who tried to harm Zoey and Forlevia. Cora loved the two of them dearly, after all, so no one could bully them.“What the hell are you talking about? Watch what you say, woman! If Cora hears about it, you will be punished mercilessly,” reminded Meredith quickly.Zoey was extremely important, after all.Jennie realized that she had made a mistake, so she quickly shut up.“What about this Levi, why don’t you ask something of us? We will do anything as long as you give us the medicine,” said Robert.The medicine was too important to them. After all, it could elevate them to a whole new level…“I don’t have anything to ask of you because I have everything I want,” replied Levi directly.Everyone was stunned as they looked at Levi.This assh*le won’t budge for anything!They tried being nice, and they tried being mean, but nothing worked.Unfortunately, they didn’t dare to threaten Zoey and Forlevia, so they truly had nothing on Levi.“Please leave now. Mr. Garrison needs to rest,” requested Minka as she gestured for everyone to leave.Everyone was displeased when they left.“I have an idea…” said Logan.“What is it? Tell us!”Everyone inched closer.Chapter 1382“Since we can’t do anything to Zoey and Evie, the only thing we can do is target Levi’s mother!” shared Logan as an evil look flashed past his eyes. “All we need is to have his mother under our control. He will definitely hand the medicine over once we do that.”Jennie was quick to agree and said, “You’re right! If he doesn’t hand it over, I will kill his mother!”Harry, Meredith, and the others turned to each other.They were a little hesitant about it.That was understandable since they knew Emma well, and they weren’t really okay with hurting her.“We have to do this to secure the future of both the Lopez and Black families!”Harry and Meredith turned and looked into each other’s eyes before they decided to go along with it.“Okay, let’s go all out! Everything will be fine as long as Levi hands the medicine over, anyway,” said Robert to make himself feel better.Cora went over excitedly and asked about their trip when she saw them returning.She instantly learned what had happened after seeing everyone’s expression.“What’s going on? You lot can’t even accomplish something so simple?” growled Cora angrily.“Please rest assured, Cora. We will definitely solve the issue beautifully, and we won’t let you down,” promised Meredith and the others.“Good!” said Cora as her expression softened.Members of the Great Family of Westford hadn’t been idle either.They tapped into all of their resources and connection to locate Levi.Judy even led a team in-person to sweep the area and was searching every corner of North Hampton. She was determined to find Levi.“Grandpa, guess what I discovered,” shared Judy excitedly when she returned.“What is it?” asked Thierry sweetly when he saw Judy signaling him.He cleared his throat and got everyone else to vacate the room.“Today, I accidentally learn that the Great Family of Frostford is here in North Hampton! They have been keeping a low profile, and it seems they are going after someone.”Judy happened to see fighters of the Great Family of Frostford lurking around Levi’s place of residence.“What is going on? The Great Family of Frostford is behaving weirdly. They were the ones who asked to destroy the previously signed agreement and claimed that they will be fine even if the contract was voided. I can’t believe it actually played out the way they said it would!” murmured Thierry as he stroked his beard.“Have you learned who they are after?” asked Thierry.“Not yet, but their fighters are surrounding a manor, and I’m guessing that the person they are after is living there. I have already sent my men to investigate the matter and I’ll go over tonight,” reported Judy.“Then, have you learned anything about the mysterious man?” asked Thierry. That was what he was most concerned about.“Not yet, but I have searched almost every inch of North Hampton over the past month. We only have a few more places left to check.”When the night rolled by, the spies of the Great Family of Westford returned to report, “Ms. Langston, we have more or less surrounded the manor where the fighters from the Great Family of Frostford were discovered. “Hearing those words prompted Judy’s eyes to gleam instantly.“Let’s go. I want to see just who the Great Family of Frostford is going after.”It didn’t take long before Judy and her men arrived at the manor.They snuck past the guards of the Great Family of Frostford and entered Levi’s manor.“Stay here and wait for my signal. I’m going in,” instructed Judy.Everyone was okay with that because Judy was a strong fighter.Soon, Judy slipped past Minka’s men and entered the manor.She scanned around and noted that no one was there.“All that’s left is the bedroom.”Judy tiptoed over.“Leave now, or you’re gonna lose your life!” said someone suddenly.Chapter 1383Startled by the sound, Judy hurriedly backed away and stared at the bedroom door.“Come out if you dare!” she yelled.Boom!A sudden blast of cold wind hit Judy from behind and sent chills running down her spine.As she turned around, a large hand swiftly grabbed her by the neck and hoisted her up.Left dangling in mid-air, Judy found herself unable to retaliate.With every passing second, she could feel her life slipping away as the grip around her neck tightened.Flushed and gasping for breath, Judy was starting to lose consciousness when a voice suddenly rang out. “It’s you?”The grip around Judy’s neck finally loosened, and she crumpled into a heap on the floor, gulping for air.As she slowly raised her head to meet the gaze of her attacker, Judy got the shock of her life.Isn’t this the man I’ve been searching for all this time?“It’s you! If I had known it was you, I wouldn’t have barged in!” Judy exclaimed before explaining that she was there because of the Great Family of Frostford.“Oh, I see!” Levi replied.Mustering up her courage, Judy added, “What does the Great Family of Frostford want with you, might I ask?”“They want to kill me.”“What? Kill you? Are they crazy?” Judy asked incredulously.“Leave now while you still can. You may not be as lucky the next time!” Levi ordered.If he hadn’t taken a better look at Judy, he would have thought she was an assassin and killed her without hesitation.“Understood!” Judy replied before leaving with a look of excitement on her face.Now that she knew where Levi lived, she could take things one step at a time.What a fruitful trip!Not only did I find out what the Great Family of Frostford is up to, but I’ve also found the mysterious man’s place of residence!Unable to contain her excitement, Judy ran all the way home to share her information with Thierry.“What? You’ve found the guy?” Thierry shouted, clearly more excited than anyone else.“Yes, that’s right! I know where he lives! His attitude toward me was also a lot better than last time!” Judy answered bashfully.“That’s great!”Even though Thierry was bubbling with excitement, Cora, Meredith, and Zoey didn’t quite share the same sentiments as him.They were shocked that the man that had earned the respect of Theirry was about to step out into the limelight.When did such a powerful presence decide to grace North Hampton, and why had none of us heard about it?“Oh, there’s one more thing, Grandpa. The Great Family of Frostford is panning on killing him!” Judy whispered.“Is that so? There’s a grudge between them, then? As powerful as the Great Family of Frostford may be, it’s going to be difficult for them to take down such a guy!”“But, he’s still facing a death threat! No matter how strong he is, it’d still be easy for them to kill him!”After giving it some thought, Thierry replied, “In that case, help me contact the council members of the Great Family of Frostford. I’ll get them to do me a favor and stop pursuing this matter!”“No problem, Grandpa!”“Once we’ve settled the matter with the Great Family of Frostford, we’ll take it as a token of my sincerity and invite our mystery guy to join our Great Family of Westford! Do you think he’ll reject us?”Thierry already had his plans all laid out. He’d help the mystery guy to fend off the death threat from the Great Family of Frostford before extending the invitation to him. By then, the guy would be so indebted that he would have no reason to reject Thierry.“You’d be doing him a big favor if you settled this matter for him, Grandpa. He should be so grateful toward you, so why would he turn down your invitation?”“Good! I’ll see to this immediately and find him tomorrow!”Chapter 1384Without a moment’s hesitation, Thierry contacted the council members of the Great Family of Frostford.With Thierry personally vouching for Levi, the Great Family of Frostford had no choice but to give in to his request.After all, they couldn’t afford to offend the head of the Great Family of Westford.Besides, the deaths of Sampson and a few others were inconsequential and not worth pursuing if it meant incurring the wrath of Thierry Langston.With the matter settled, Thierry got off the phone feeling smug. “No matter how big the problems are, all it takes is one word from me to get them resolved!”What he said was true.If one were to have the Great Family of Frostford hot on their heels, there was no way they would be able to dodge the bullet.Yet all Thierry had to do was say the word.In his eyes, there was no doubt that the rare genius he had met was strong and worthy of becoming the successor to the Five Dragons of Erudia. However, until he had fully grown into his powers, the Great Family of Frostford could still easily obliterate him.The guy was actually just like any other ordinary man, except he had made the Great Family of Frostford pay a heavy price with his actions.As such, it was only logical that they would be out for his blood.Now that Thierry had resolved the matter, he knew that the genius would be greatly indebted to him.More than anything else, Thierry wanted to show him the power and value that the Great Family of Westford had.The next day, Thierry excitedly prepared for his meeting with the genius.However, when Cora and the others asked to follow along, Thierry turned them all down.“Having you all around will only complicate things! Besides, he will soon be joining our great family. You’ll get to see him then!”Before long, Judy had arrived at Levi’s manor with Thierry in tow.“Mister, I’m Thierry Langston of the Great Family of Westford! My granddaughter and I would like to request an audience with you!” Thierry shouted.Upon hearing the familiar voice, Levi opened the door, a frown on his face.“What do you want?”These people are so persistent. Why can’t they just leave me alone?“Mister, I have good news for you!”“Oh? What is it?” Levi asked, looking at Thierry quizzically.“I heard about your problem with the Great Family of Frostford, so I’ve personally settled the matter for you!” Thierry proudly exclaimed.“No matter what grudges you’ve had with Frostford, they have promised me that they’ll stop pursuing them. You no longer have to worry about your life!”Levi finally understood why the ambush that was sent by the Great Family of Frostford had retreated. It was all because Thierry had interceded on his behalf.Was that necessary, though?The Great Family of Frostford is nothing but a small fry to me!If I had bothered to, I’d have taken out their thugs in ambush a long time ago.“Okay,” Levi replied coldly.Levi’s unimpressed response stunned both Thierry and Judy.Logically speaking, Levi should be thanking them for having helped him out with such a serious matter.So why is he being so nonchalant about it?Did he think he could single-handedly take on the entire Great Family of Frostford?Is he that full of himself?“Mister, you do know that the Great Family of Frostford was after you, yes?” Thierry asked.“Of course, I know that. It’s hardly recent news!”“That’s good to hear! I’ve helped you settle this insurmountable problem, but you don’t have to thank me. All I wish for in return is to have you join our Great Family of Westford!”Thierry beamed and added, “My conditions are still the same from before! Once you join us, you’ll be our future leader!”With Thierry having made himself clear, Judy gave Levi a curious look.There’s no way he’ll reject Grandpa’s offer!“Why should I thank you? Did I ask you to help? Besides, I don’t give a d*mn about the Great Family of Frostford!”Chapter 1385Everything that Levi had said was nothing but the truth.The Great Family of Frostford wouldn’t have dared to make a move even if they were only up against North Sky Lord, let alone Levi himself.Why else have they been lying in ambush for so long?Thierry was utterly taken aback by Levi’s words and his arrogance.This is absurd!We admit that you’re strong, but not to the extent of keeping the entire Great Family of Frostford at bay!You may have the potential of becoming one of the Five Dragons of Erudia, but your abilities are still far beneath theirs.If the Great Family of Frostford wants to kill you, it’d still be as easy as pie!Thierry held firm to the belief that all prodigies merely had an underlying potential. Anything could still happen to them before they fully uncover their potential. Levi was no exception.“Mister, you don’t seem to have realized your place, have you? Yes, you’re strong, but growth takes time. And there’s still a lot for you to grow before you can take on the Great Family of Frostford fearlessly!”When Levi didn’t reply, Thierry added, “If you join us, I will dedicate all of Westford’s resources to train and protect you till you’ve reached your full potential!”Thierry thought he had sufficiently proven his sincerity, but alas, what he failed to realize was that Levi was a lot more powerful than he had imagined.Levi burst into laughter and replied, “I can join your great family, but on one condition…”“What is it? Please let me know!”“The Great Family of Westford will have to be at my beck and call. I want to be the boss!”As soon as the words left Levi’s mouth, the crowd fell silent, astonishment on every face.No one had thought Levi would be that ambitious to take over the entire Great Family of Westford.Judy and Thierry were both rendered speechless as they stared at Levi in disbelief.Thierry’s subordinates, on the other hand, could no longer take it lying down. “Don’t you dare go overboard!”Soon, everyone else chimed in.“Do you think we don’t have anyone to fight you? Our Great Family of Westford is full of skilled fighters who can easily take you on!”“You only have the potential to be the Five Dragons of Erudia’s successor, but your abilities are nowhere near theirs!”Levi chuckled, still unfazed by the people screaming at him. “Anyway, that’s the only condition I have. If you can grant me that, I’ll join you. If you can’t, then leave right now!”Thierry felt his breath quicken as rage pulsed through his veins.Eventually, he still chose to leave.After all, it would be outrageous for him to relinquish his position in the Great Family of Westford. There was no way he would ever give it up.Even though Levi was a rare talent, he was far too arrogant.After leaving Levi’s manor, everyone was livid with rage.“Who does the guy think he is? Does he not have respect for anyone? To think he even asked to lead our great family? Such impudence!”As the others raged on, Judy turned to Thierry and asked, “Grandpa, what do you suggest we do next? Are we going to give up?”After a pause, she added, “I believe other forces would find out about him soon. When that happens, it’d be even harder to get him on our side!”Thierry stroked his beard as he pondered his granddaughter’s words. “What do you suggest?”“The problem with him is that he’s too arrogant! He doesn’t even think the Four Great Families are his match! As long as we can prove that we have fighters stronger than him, he’ll know his place and join us.”Thierry’s eyes lit up immediately as he exclaimed, “Good! I think that can work! If we let him know we have people stronger than him, he’d want to join us! Pass my orders on! I want George back in North Hampton immediately!”“Yes, Grandpa!”George Langston was none other than the top fighter in the entire Great Family of Westford.He was also the only one whose abilities were closest to that of the Five Dragons of Erudia.If he were to make his move, Levi would undoubtedly lose.Chapter 1386What Thierry had in mind was to convince Levi once and for all.He wanted Levi to be so in awe of the Great Family of Westford that he would join them without hesitation.That was why Thierry had to bring out his best fighter, George.Having mastered all of Westford’s fighting techniques, George was hands down the strongest Ultimate class warrior in the family for centuries.Given his abilities, it wouldn’t be surprising if he could even surpass the Ultimate class warrior.To put it simply, George was powerful.He alone could annihilate armies and destroy nations.Even if the whole of Erudia came together, they still might not be able to win him. That was the power of an Ultimate class warrior!Born in a time of war, George had once unleashed so much power that he almost took out an entire country.No matter how much time had passed since then, no one in the Great Family of Westford would forget his power and contributions.George was also the reason the Great Family of Westford had so much confidence and bargaining power.Because of him lending his power, Westford never needed to worry about others climbing over their heads.Why else did the Dragonites sign the agreement with us? It’s all because they felt threatened by George’s presence!Thierry broke into a smile and mused, “Seems like violence is still the best way to get things done!”“That’s right. If only we had known earlier, we wouldn’t have had to waste this much energy,” Judy replied with a nod.The Great Family of Westford could finally heave a sigh of relief.To them, Levi joining their family was already a certainty.As long as they had George on their side, there was no way Levi would decline their invitation.After returning to the Lopez family, Cora and the others immediately greeted them.“Thierry, have you met the mystery man?”Nodding, Thierry replied, “Yes, I have. It wouldn’t be long before he joined us.”Henry and Fabian, on the other hand, looked on in disbelief. “Mr. Langston, can there truly be such a powerful person here in North Hampton?”Zoey was equally fascinated by the thought of that.They had been living in North Hampton their whole lives but never had they heard of someone who could attract so much attention from the Great Family of Westford.“He does exist! I’ve met him, and he lives right here in North Hampton!”At that instant, everyone gasped.A big shot had been living right under their noses all that time, yet no one knew any better.Henry and the others were about to ask for the mystery man’s address when a small voice interrupted, “Daddy is the big shot! It’s Daddy!”At Forlevia’s exclamation, everyone instantly turned to look at her.“Evie, how’s your father a big shot? He’s not even the God of War anymore!” Judy asked.Forlevia harrumphed and replied, “Daddy’s even more powerful than the God of War now! He’s the Crown King!”Zoey hurriedly made her way toward Forlevia and picked her up, not wanting her to say anymore.“Mr. Langston, you know how nonsensical children are. Please don’t take her words to heart!” Meredith nervously explained.“It’s all Levi’s fault for shamelessly calling himself the Crown King!”“That’s right! Mr. Langston, don’t mind the child’s words!”After Meredith, everyone else chimed in, afraid that Thierry might get riled up by Forlevia’s words.To their surprise, Thierry had a cold smile on his face. “Of course I wouldn’t mind! I know what it takes to become the Crown King! To put it simply, I can tell you right now that not even the Four Great Families can cultivate such an individual! And Levi Garrison dares call himself one? Ha! Impossible!”Thankful that Thierry didn’t blow his top, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.“Evie, no more of this nonsense in the future!” Zoey chided, only to have Forlevia pout and hum in response.The next day, the Great Family of Westford had gathered many of their skilled fighters in North Hampton, one of them being George Langston.With such an impressive lineup, Thierry couldn’t help but laugh. “Let’s see if you’ll admit defeat this time, Mister.”Chapter 1387George’s return was something that nobody had expected.What was even more unexpected was the showing up of the other three great families and the Dragonites.Everyone soon started talking amongst themselves in hushed tones, “What’s going on?”“It’s their first move, and they’re already using their trump card?”“They’ve even brought out their top fighter…”“What do they plan on doing?”“George is too strong. One attack from him, and everything might change overnight!”It wasn’t an exaggeration to say that there were at least a dozen foreign countries who would die to have George as their advisor.With his immense power, George’s resurgence only attracted more attention from the outside world.All of Erudia’s eyes were now on North Hampton, eagerly awaiting the events to follow.Naturally, Thierry was well aware of the attention he had garnered with gathering all his top fighters.If he were to drag the matter on any longer, he feared more people would find out about the genius’ presence.No, we have to settle this as soon as possible.As soon as George arrived in North Hampton, Thierry immediately brought him along to confront Levi at his manor.Unbeknownst to them, Levi had already known about Thierry’s plan with George.After all, it had attracted the attention of the Dragonites, who in turn informed Levi of it.As soon as he arrived, Thierry began reciting all of George’s achievements, “Here is George Langston, the top fighter in the Great Family of Westford! During the war that happened a century ago, he was the strongest warrior of them all! He alone could take on an entire country!”Thierry continued, “In Erudia’s list of dangerous people, George belongs to the SSSSS level. His power is so great he can annihilate countries at will! Once he returns, the Dragonites have to keep their eyes on him at all times. If there’s a chance of him unleashing his power, they will have to do whatever it takes to kill him or capture him alive!”“An SSSSS level of danger! Can you imagine? In the last century, the highest level has only ever been SSSS!” Thierry exclaimed after a pause.Levi rubbed his chin and chuckled out loud.Yes. I’m the one with the SSSS level!No matter how powerful the other fighters were, they were always a rank below Levi.However, with George, the world had finally gotten its first SSSSS level fighter.It was no wonder that Erudia was in an uproar as soon as news of his return got out and spread like wildfire.“The Four Great Families are truly not to be trifled with!” Levi muttered to himself. “Perhaps the other three families have even more powerful fighters!”Just then, Levi and North Sky Lord raised their heads, both looking in the same direction with a deadly, cold gaze.They sensed that someone powerful had arrived…True enough, Thierry’s voice rang out. “Mister, I’m here again! This time, I’ll prove to you just how powerful the Great Family of Westford is! I’m sure you’d change your mind and join us immediately!”Levi shook his head in annoyance. “D*mn, these people just won’t leave me alone!”Outside the manor, dozens of people from the Great Family of Westford had gathered together.They were all skilled fighters, capable of taking down countless enemies at one go. But the most fearsome of them was the one standing right at the back.Dressed in a green robe, he looked gentle and easy-going with fair, delicate skin.He looked no older than forty, yet he was already more than a hundred years old.There had even been rumors saying that he was almost two hundred years old, but there was nary a mark on his face to give that away.Such was the power of the Ultimate class warrior.Those well-versed in martial arts had boundless energy coursing through their bodies. Not only could that help to delay aging, but it could also extend their lifespans.As such, it wouldn’t be a surprise if the top Ultimate class warrior had truly lived to be almost two hundred years old.George Langston calmly made his way to the front and gazed at Levi. “Is that him?”As he watched George’s mannerisms, Levi started to believe those rumors even more.I’m sure this old guy here is almost two hundred.Thierry nodded his head excitedly. “That’s right! He’s the one!”Chapter 1388The air was thick with tension as Levi and George locked eyes with each other.“Mister, since you said you aren’t afraid of the Four Great Families, we’ll just have to give you a taste of our power!” Thierry bellowed.“This fight will prove to you that you can never win the Great Family of Westford! And you’ll also realize you aren’t as powerful as you claim to be! I’m sure you’ll want to join our family after this!”Thierry then turned to George and said, “I’ll leave it to you, Master!”George sized Levi up and mused, “A rare prodigy indeed! I can tell you’re worthy of succeeding the Five Dragons of Erudia! Listen here, kid. Become my disciple, and I’ll groom you to become as powerful as the Five Dragons!”What? Taking Levi in as a disciple?This sudden turn in events was not something Thierry and the others had expected.Despite that, Thierry still tossed Judy a smug look.It was as if he wanted to tell her how right he had been all along, that Levi was such a hot commodity that everyone wanted a piece of him.Judy and the rest remained in shock as they stared at George and Levi.In his almost two hundred years of life, George had never had a disciple before.Many people from the Great Family of Westford, including Thierry, had begged George to take them in before. Alas, he rejected every single one of them.Now, not only did George want to take in a disciple, but he was also the one extending the offer to Levi.If the rest of the Great Family of Westford got wind of it, chaos would undoubtedly ensue.All that aside, the most important point was how much potential Levi had, to the extent that even George wanted him under his wing.Yet, Levi smiled and replied flatly, “You’re not worthy enough to have me as your disciple!”“Such insolence! What are you talking about?”“Do you have any idea who this man is? The audacity that you have!”“Master Langston is the top Ultimate class warrior and also the top fighter in the entire Great Family of Westford! It’s your fortune that he wants you as his disciple!”It went without saying that everyone was astounded by Levi’s statement as they admonished him.George’s expression had also changed for the worse.In all his years, he had never encountered such an impudent fool before.George was undoubtedly the most powerful and most worthy person in the world to have as a teacher.So who else could Levi possibly want?Thierry and Judy were both on the verge of losing their minds.It was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, yet Levi was throwing it away like it was nothing.Is he mad?Of all the people to taunt, he had to taunt George?Does he have a death wish?Levi shook his head helplessly and sighed. “Is it a fight that you want? If so, let’s cut the crap and fight already! You may be free, but I’m not!”Arrogant!He’s too arrogant!Everyone was seething with rage as they glared at Levi.George, too, shook his head and said, “Young man, there’s a price to pay for being so arrogant!”I suppose this young man has yet to experience any setbacks in life. Guess I’ll have to teach him a lesson!“Watch out now, young man!”As soon as George finished speaking, he made his first move.Taking only one small step, George reappeared behind Levi in the blink of an eye.Everyone looked on in awe and utter disbelief, unable to fathom how George had managed to do that.His techniques were so polished that they were beyond comprehension.Even North Sky Lord was taken aback by George’s mastery of speed.Levi, however, froze in his place, seemingly too dumbfounded to react in any way.Boom! Boom! Boom!George, still standing behind Levi, had made his second move.He dished out punches at lightning speed, leaving nothing but a blur to everyone who was watching.In less than two seconds, George had already landed over a hundred punches on Levi, and the sound from it was deafening.The crowd watched on with bated breath, knowing that getting pummeled so viciously would reduce anyone to an unrecognizable heap of minced meat.Terrifying!That was absolutely terrifying!As scary as it was, smiles gradually crept onto everyone’s faces.From what they could tell, Levi had lost, and it was time for him to eat humble pie. Chapter 1389Even though they didn’t look like it, every punch that George had landed on Levi had a force of almost a hundred tons.A single punch was all it took to split mountains and bring down skyscrapers.What made it even scarier was that George had punched Levi over a thousand times in just a short amount of time.It was evident that the stronger the fighters were, the more they favored using simple techniques to deal with their enemies.Just like how there was nothing fancy about George’s punches, yet they were also the ones that packed the most power.After all, he was the top Ultimate class warrior and Great Family of Westford’s top fighter.The crowd continued to gasp in amazement at how terrifyingly powerful George was.Even the strongest fighters would feel like lambs to the slaughter when up against him.George was also confident that Levi wouldn’t be able to handle his chain of punches. It was only a matter of time before the latter admitted his defeat.I’m sure he’d even beg me to take him in as my disciple.All of sudden, a voice rang out.“Have you had enough? It’s my turn then!”Everyone, including George, was stunned when they heard that familiar voice.When the realization hit him, George’s eyes almost popped out of his head.Levi had spun around at a speed that was even faster than his.The next second, Levi had thrown out a fist at George. Boom!The force behind that punch was akin to a thunderbolt from heaven and sent everyone trembling in fear.Not only was it lightning-fast, but it had also landed squarely on George’s face, sending him flying through the air.Crack!Before anyone could react, George had slammed into the wall and gotten embedded in it.The sheer force had caused long, branching cracks to appear on the wall like a spider web.What followed was utter silence as everyone stared in shocked disbelief.No one could believe that all it took was one punch from Levi to send George flying into a wall.What made it even more terrifying was that George had already used all his power to deflect the force from Levi’s punch. Otherwise, he’d have been dead by now.George’s eyes shone with shock and fear. Even he couldn’t fathom what Levi had just accomplished. One thing was for sure, Levi was way too powerful.After having lived and fought for so many years, other than the Five Dragons of Erudia and a few elusive fighters from the other great families, no one else had been George’s match.And to think it was a young man who had risen to the occasion!Everyone else was slowly losing their minds over the incredulity of it all.“What? The top fighter of the Great Family of Westford flew after getting just one punch?”“How is that possible?”Amidst the nervous murmurs, only North Sky Lord had a smile on his face.Levi shook his head and scoffed at George. “Is that all?”Levi’s display of arrogance was still infuriating for all, but now they know he had a reason for being so smug.Firstly, even after George’s thousands of punches, Levi remained unscathed.George’s fists were strong enough to destroy buildings, yet the punches he threw at Levi didn’t even leave a scratch. Just that alone was enough to make people shudder.Secondly, Levi even managed to retaliate.And all it took was one punch to hurt George.It was incredible that Levi could withstand countless punches from George, yet George couldn’t even bear the brunt of one from Levi.Despite the short reply, Levi’s words had sent a wave of fury crashing through George.Boom!George exuded hostility as he glared at Levi and blasted the wall around him into smithereens.“You’re an interesting young man! But I’ll show you what real power is!”With George channeling his fury and energy, the atmosphere around them started to change drastically.There were strong winds all around, and the temperature dipped instantly, sending chills down the spine of every onlooker.With air currents swirling around him, George slowly made his way toward Levi.The menacing aura that he gave off was so overwhelming that everyone felt suffocated by it. Deep down, they all knew that things were about to get even more terrifying.“Count yourself lucky, young man! You’re about to witness the most powerful technique from the Great Family of Westford!” George said coldly.Chapter 1390It had been almost a century since George last used the most powerful technique from the Great Family of Westford.That was because he had had no chance or reason to use it until Levi came along.As he slowly raised his right hand, countless cyclones started circling on top of his palm.George had gotten so powerful that he could easily manipulate the elements.Whether it was wind, fire, water, or electricity, he could control them and turn them into means of attack.What was even more frightening was how these cyclones slowly morphed into various small secret weapons.In the blink of an eye, George had filled the entire space with them.The weapons were so densely packed they surrounded Levi from every angle and every direction. From the looks of it, there was absolutely no room for escape.The Tang Sect was part of the Great Family of Westford, and their strongest suit was in secret weapons and traps.With someone as powerful as George, he had long since combined his martial arts with his knowledge of secret weapons.Secret weapons made from air currents were far deadlier than those made from metal or even bullets.As such, it wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say that with just this technique alone, George could kill over a hundred thousand people on any battlefield.It was precisely because of this that George was said to be able to take down entire countries in one fell swoop.With such raw strength, it was no wonder it was said to be the most powerful technique in the Great Family of Westford.“Time for you to lose!” George yelled.Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!In an instant, all the secret weapons flew toward Levi like rain pelting down on him.As a rough estimate, there were at least tens of thousands of secret weapons fired at Levi. The thought of it alone was enough to turn anyone’s legs to jelly.Boom! Boom! Boom!Before long, the area where Levi stood on had gotten razed to the ground.Every firing of a secret weapon resulted in an explosion upon contact. As such, it didn’t take long to sink the foundation in the front of the manor.If George hadn’t held himself back, he would have easily destroyed the entire compound.Despite the countless secret weapons fired at him, Levi calmly blocked them with his arms and slowly strode toward George.Levi had activated a layer of shield around him, making him invulnerable to attacks.No matter how powerful those secret weapons were, they were useless against him.George had used his techniques, and Levi had countered with his own.It was a technique that Levi had learned while in prison, and its defensive strength was shockingly impressive.“What? What is this?” George muttered in disbelief.Has Levi gone mad? Does he not care about the weapons?Upon closer scrutiny, George realized that the weapons were completely ineffective against Levi.How is that possible?Before George could regain his composure, Levi had appeared in front of him.Boom!With Levi delivering yet another powerful punch, George spat out blood as he flew over a distance.Thump!George fell to the floor, unable to get up.The first punch had been bad enough, but the second was even worse, and George had reached his limit.His gaze was filled with fear and shock as he stared at Levi.This young man is too terrifying!George turned to Thierry and yelled, “Thierry, your information’s all wrong. This man isn’t the successor to the Five Dragons of Erudia. He’s even more powerful than them!”“What?” Thierry mumbled before blacking out from the overwhelming shock.“One punch wasn’t enough, but I suppose two should do it!” Levi said with a grin.“Nonetheless, I have to admit you were pretty good! Why don’t you work for me?”George froze and looked at Levi quizzically, not knowing what he had meant by that request.Levi pondered for a while before adding with a chuckle, “How about this then. I’ll take over the Great Family of Westford. Does anyone have any objections?”Seeing his gaze fall on them, Judy and the rest dared not make a peep.Even Thierry, who had just come round, was uncharacteristically silent.As much as George didn’t like the idea, he had no choice but to agree.After all, he had lost to Levi.
