This was because Hunter was currently employing his strongest move, ‘Divine Tiger Out the Mountain’, from his martial arts technique—Divine Tiger Fist.The reason why Hunter was called the White-Clothed Tiger King was because he practiced Divine Tiger Fist.The strongest and most powerful attack amongst the moves available in Divine Tiger Fist was the ‘Divine Tiger Out the Mountain’. The greatest feature of this move was its ability to quickly raise a person’s internal qi by at least fifty percent.However, this move was not something that could be used casually.This was because this kind of drastic overdraft would bring about strong repercussions to the user. In a light case, it would take the user’s body many days to slowly repair itself. During this reparation process, the user would only be able to exert half of his own strength.In a more severe case, it would cause a huge decline in the user’s cultivation base, and it might take a year or even two for the user to recove
Hunter felt ashamed and indignant when he heard Charlie’s mockery.When he saw the playful teasing expression in Charlie’s eyes, a strong sense of fear surged up deep in his heart once again. He subconsciously said, “This… This cannot be possible! Even an eight-star martial artist would not have been able to defuse my ‘Divine Tiger Out the Mountain’ so easily! How on earth did you manage to do that?!”Hunter’s words were also the heartfelt words that everyone in Ten Thousand Armies, including Porter, wanted to ask.Each and every one of them did not expect that Hunter’s full-force strike would remain so weak to the point that it was absolutely pathetic in front of Charlie. Their longstanding worldview of martial arts was completely subverted at this moment. They never would have dreamt that there would be such a powerful expert in this world.At this time, Porter also came to his senses. He realized that his revenge plan which he had been carefully preparing for twenty years mi
Every time he won, the defeated party would always beg bitterly and pitifully as he was doing now. He had never shown any mercy toward them before.Now, it seemed as though things had turned around, and it was finally Hunter’s turn to beg others to spare his life!And Charlie was obviously not ready to let him go!Charlie looked at Hunter, and the corners of his mouth suddenly curled up slightly, revealing a playful and cruel smile. Hunter’s heart instantly felt cold as if he had fallen into an ice cave when he saw the sudden strange smile on Charlie’s face.Although Hunter did not know what Charlie wanted to do to him, Hunter realized that he was done for!Just then, Charlie used his right hand to grab both of Hunter’s fists, and he suddenly turned his wrist!Immediately afterward, Hunter felt as if both of his arms were being pushed into a powerful meat grinder. Right after that, both his arms were twisted together like a braid!The severe pain started from his wrists and
Who would have thought that Charlie would destroy all of Hunter’s meridians at the same time when he was breaking his arms?Charlie was actually able to easily destroy Hunter’s meridians and destroy his entire cultivation base without making a sound. This was simply the crushing difference between a human and an ant.At this moment, everyone from Ten Thousand Armies was in despair. On the other hand, the people around Charlie could not wait to cheer out of joy.As for Cadfan, who was draped in mourning clothes, he felt as if his body was collapsing at this point, and his hands and feet were trembling involuntarily. He truly did not expect that there would be such a powerful existence in the Wade family. He had relied on Ten Thousand Armies, and he had thought that Ten Thousand Armies would absolutely be able to crush Charlie completely. Unexpectedly, Ten Thousand Armies was no match for Charlie at all!He suddenly thought of how both of his granddaughters as well as his eldes
Hunter’s heart was filled with shame and anger after getting the paper roll stuffed into his mouth. However, he could only obey and smoke the paper roll desperately. Still, the smoke produced by the burning of this joss paper could never be compared to the flavorful Cuban cigar. After taking the first puff, Hunter choked because of the smoke, and he was coughing as his tears and snot gushed out at the same time.Charlie glared at him and sneered, “Why have you lost the style and arrogance that you had when you were talking nonsense while smoking your cigar and blowing clouds at me yesterday?” Hunter thought of his arrogant appearance yesterday, and he could not help but shudder.When Charlie saw the frightened look on his face, he continued speaking, “Don’t forget that you also killed one of the Wade family’s bodyguards with a cigar! Even if it’s a life for a life, I will also have to kill you today!” After saying that, Charlie paused for a moment before he continued, “Don’t yo
Porter instantly had a shocked expression on his face when he heard Charlie’s words!Immediately afterward, Porter clenched his teeth and said coldly, “Charlie Wade! Who gave you so much courage?! You actually dare to disrespect the spirits of my parents in heaven?!”Charlie sneered and said, “I really did not expect that the infamous so-called lord from Ten Thousand Armies would be nothing more than a hypocritical b*stard with double standards!” After saying that, Charlie said, “You were the one who had been yelling and threatening to destroy my parents’ bones and ashes. You were disrespecting my parents’ spirits in heaven, but you’re actually refusing to allow anyone else to return the favor by doing the same as you did? Why? Could it be that you are stronger as compared to me? Or is it because you think that you’re doing better than me?”Porter suddenly had a guilty conscience, and he was at a loss as to how he should answer Charlie.He knew very well that he was the one who h
The Golden-Furred Lion King, who was also a six-star martial artist just like Hunter, was actually killed because a pebble that the other party had kicked had pierced through his brain!This made all of those soldiers from Ten Thousand Armies who had wanted to swarm forward and fight to the death against Charlie subconsciously take a few steps back. At the same time, the impulse that they had desperately felt to fight Charlie just now instantly died down because of Charlie’s move!These people were all terrified. They knew that since Charlie could kill the Golden-Furred Lion King with just one move, Charlie would definitely be able to kill any of them easily using the same method!Porter was also completely stunned!He finally realized the gap between Charlie and himself at this moment.Porter knew that if Charlie were to take action, he might not be able to survive even one blow in Charlie’s hand!At this moment, Charlie, who had just killed someone, looked at Hunter with a fr
After Charlie’s sentence came, the Black-Faced Panther King was scared out of his wits!He subconsciously retreated several steps backward. After that, he suddenly turned around and desperately tried to run down the mountain.He had seen Charlie’s ability just now when Charlie had killed the Golden-Furred Lion King.Charlie could kill a six-star martial artist with just a single pebble.If he did not run now, he was afraid that he would only be repeating the Golden-Furred Lion King’s mistake. However, as soon as he had just turned around and before he had even taken two steps, he felt an instantaneous pain at the back of his head, followed by the loss of all consciousness.The Black-Faced Panther King died a very quick death, and he was killed as fast as a flash of lightning, so he did not suffer much pain. Still, in the eyes of the other soldiers from Ten Thousand Armies, the death of the Black-Faced Leopard King was really too miserable!Charlie had used a mere pebble to pe
Jimmy was sweating profusely in fear, but he argued back before he knew it, "That's impossible! Everything you say is bullshit! Gaiman simply thought he had a fair chance of winning and didn't want to pay Ares that much, and I have no idea who he partnered with, and I'm certainly not involved. Don't you try to slander me!"Nate chuckled. "Come on, Jimmy. We're all adults here, so there are things we shouldn't have to be so direct about. Mills Gaiman and your old classmate met in private many times, not to mention the private conferences you three had in secret, discussing your overall strategy and decisive points. Just so you know, Gaiman recorded every conversation, and I have the tapes with me."Jimmy's heart was left pounding as he blurted, "B-Bullshit! That's impossible!""Grow up, Jimmy," Mr.Goodman chuckled. "Every partner in every law firm always strives to rise higher, so I'm going to need as much leverage as I can. Otherwise, I'm not about to let them advance any further, e
Although the ringtone and vibration frequency were the ones Jimmy always used, this call somehow felt more urgent, leaving him exceedingly uneasy.When it abruptly stopped and left a missed call on his log, Nate Ellis soon sent a text: [Answer your damn phone this instant!]Just seeing the text left Jimmy feeling like his throat had gone dry, and as he gulped, it felt like his throat was being ripped, leaving him hurting.Still, he couldn't care less as his boss called again.Having seen the text, Jimmy didn't hesitate this time and promptly answered, watching Julien's smug face as he started tentatively, "Y-Yes, boss...?"Nate immediately yelled at him hysterically, "What the hell did you do?! Why did the Rothschilds call to complain about you?! And the complaint was from their heir apparent, at that! I worked hard for them and always toed the line for years, and I still haven't gotten a chance to meet the man, so how the fuck did you upset him?!"Jimmy's heart sank to rock bott
Fuming, Jimmy snapped at Julien, "If you insist on playing it like that, I will call my boss, and you can talk to him yourself!"Julien chuckled. "That's unnecessary. I've never met him. He would never recognize my voice."Jimmy laughed and nodded despite himself. "Impressive—you can really come up with anything! You don't have his number because he's beneath you, you refuse to call him because he's beneath you, and when I say I'll call him for you, you say he won't recognize your voice. Well, how do you suppose we should sort this out? At least prove you're a Rothschild, or anyone could claim that they are—"Julien held up a hand to stop him. "Then, how about this? I'll ask my butler to talk to your boss."Jimmy laughed even more loudly as if it were the best joke ever. "Hahaha!!! Butler, you say?! You really know how to talk! Alright, I'll wait and see what your 'butler' can do… I mean, what you can do. We'll see whether my boss calls me!"Julien ignored him and whipped out his
Naturally, Jimmy couldn't care less about Julien's suggestion, even looking at him pointedly from head to toe while smirking in contempt, "What, do you think I'd just do what any nutjob tells me to do just because they're claiming to be the Rothschilds' heir apparent?"Julien nodded, still smiling. "Good point, but don't worry—it's the same whether you call him or he calls you."Jimmy laughed. "I was offering you a way out, but you want to keep pressing your luck? Since you don't care to back off, let's see how you're going to finish this fight."Then, he shrugged while pointing at Yolden. "Well, it's the perfect chance to measure Matilda's husband, I guess."Based on what he saw of Yolden, there was no way he would buy Julien's claims, and thus labeled him an impostor in his mind.An ordinary lecturer in Aurous Hill, being friends with the Rothschilds' heir apparent? Not to mention that there had been plenty of fraudulent cases outside the States where the Rothschild name was use
Jimmy was taken aback since he didn't recognize Julien at all, mainly because the Rothschilds had always kept out of the public eye.In fact, it was basically impossible to gather genuine information about the Rothschilds online, as it was a mix of press releases and gossip. Most online biographies would only be about the older generations or certain frivolous figures. Any information about key members like Steve would never be searchable online.Matilda was confused as well, not quite understanding who Julien was since he wasn't on the list of guests invited.Seeing that she was confused, Julien turned and smiled at Yolden, "So, Professor, shouldn't you introduce me to the bride?"Yolden finally remembered that and quickly nodded, "Sorry, it slipped my mind."Turning toward Matilda, he smiled, "Darling, this is Julien Rothschild… A friend of mine from the states…"Julien's full name left everyone within earshot gaping as the Rothschild name was way too famous across the globe.
Seeing that Jimmy was getting a little nervous, Charlie smiled and assured him, "Please, you have nothing to worry about. No one's going to do anything to you, but if you feel threatened in any way, you can call the cops. The Oskian emergency hotline is 110, by the way."Jimmy was slightly relieved as he could see that Charlie really wasn't trying to make things awkward for him, and he straightened his collar as he said, "Actually, I didn't mean to cause trouble—I'm pleased that Matilda has found true love once more, and if we can be friends, I can set aside my claim and stay for the rest of this wedding, offering the newlyweds our best wishes as a representative of my family."Still, his expression showed contempt as he turned toward Yolden. "Also, I'm really curious and looking forward to seeing what connections Professor Hart might have that you say could be better than Bill.""You'll see soon enough," Charlie smiled and nodded.Jimmy remained skeptical and scoffed, "I really do
If Charlie really did get Jimmy to stay, who knew what other rubbish Jimmy would spout.As for Jimmy, he was actually surprised Charlie was asking him to stay, and his instincts told him that Charlie definitely didn't mean well.Not only that, he was on foreign soil—wouldn't he be defenseless if Charlie called in his friends to beat him up?Hence, he shook his head without hesitation as he said, "I'm sorry, but my sister-in-law is quite keen for me to leave, so I have no reason to stay and add to her problems. And it is her big day. I can afford to let her save face instead of spilling the beans on her all at once.""Oh, but you were complaining about the lack of important people just now!" Charlie quickly interjected. "It just so happens that we have a big-shot on his way here, and he's a good friend of the groom. When I told him about you over the phone, he said to keep you here no matter what it took, since he would like to talk to you face to face."Jimmy frowned. "What, are y
And with those words, Jimmy turned to leave.Despite threatening Matilda, there was no such agreement, and he knew that Matilda was well aware of that.Regardless, the only strategy he had in mind when he came to Oskia was harassment. As such, he simply came up with a lie to make Matilda look bad in public. All it took from there was just for one person to relay what he had said—even if it were all lies, Matilda's character would still be called into question.He made himself very clear so that Matilda would understand that if she didn't give in, his family would keep hounding her to take their two pounds of flesh. Even if she wouldn't surrender the stateside estates and human resources of Smith Group Corporate Law, they would still claim a sizable chunk.But if that failed too, they would just have to destroy Matilda's reputation along with Smith Group Corporate Law.Either way, they were not letting her off easy!And reading that much from Jimmy's behavior, Matilda snapped co
Jimmy didn't expect Matilda to break down the share ownership of Smith Group Corporate Law to such detail, and he hollered as he was starting to feel embarrassed, "Now, you're just being irresponsible, Matilda. My father gave my brother a million to start the law firm in the first place, and they had agreed that the family would have a stake, albeit only at 49%, to not deny your decision-making as a startup. Or are you denying it?"Matilda immediately became furious and snapped, "Bullshit! That was just a loan of one million, and the agreed term was three years. However, your brother returned it in one! I even asked him to return the money with every single one of his siblings watching, since you might all get skeptical, yet suddenly, you're calling it an investment?""You said he's returned it? Well, what proof do you have?" Jimmy quickly shot back. "Our entire family can testify that the money hasn't come back to us!""So, this is how you're going to play it?" Matilda smirked. "Th
