Semua Bab The Ex-Husband's Revenge: Bab 2071 - Bab 2080

"Well, yes! Cynthion Group indeed came up with an even better alchemical pill!" after a moment's contemplation, Leon finally nodded in response to their questioning. "Really? That's splendid news!" "President Wolf, where are these pills right now? please do show us!" everyone was overjoyed to hear this and immediately perked up, excited to see just what this pill was capable of. Hugo was no exception; he was doubtful of Cynthion Group at the beginning, but now, all his attention was drawn by the promise of this new and revolutionary pill! Even the Southern Boss and Devon were both staring intently at Leon, their expressions unclear. "Well, this new pill that's even more powerful than the Supreme Pure Energy Pill is called the Cleansing Pill! Behold—" Leon declared as he gestured to the hostess, who immediately sauntered over with a white porcelain jug, which contained none other than five of those Cleansing Pills! Leon produced these Cleansing Pills from the Angel's Fruit

"Thud!" All of a sudden, Roanne's entire body shuddered, her energy concentrating into bursts of fiery power as she ascended from the Initial Emperor State to the Intermediate Emperor State! Finally, her energy dissipated, and she got up from the ground, light as a feather. "I never thought the Cleansing Pills would help me attain the Intermediate Emperor State so quickly, Leon! This is incredible!" she exclaimed with a grin, feeling as though she woke up from a good dream. Just a few days ago, she was still at the Advanced Overlord State, but now, with Leon's help, she finally advanced to the Intermediate Emperor State, which made her almost on par with her brother Yuri! She ascended so fast that now, she became one of the best martial artists in the entire Southern region, region to only her brother! "Miss Thompson attained a new power level! This is unbelievable!" everyone was utterly stunned by this sight and erupted into a flurry of excitement. None of them thought

"Rats! That Southern Boss sure is a sly fellow!" the color drained from Angus' face when he heard Rodney's dare. Now, after the Southern Boss' daring statement, the Thompsons successfully become a pawn of Leon's plan in the public's eye. If Roanne were to turn down Rodney's challenge to a duel, this would prove the Southern Boss' point that Leon and they were in on this together! This was no doubt a smart, albeit deceitful, trick! "Roanne, are you going to accept my duel or not? Say something! What's wrong? Are you afraid that I'll expose you and Leon for who you are? Why not hear me out? I'll give you one last chance; you don't need to defeat me, all you have to do is take three of my attacks in stride, and so long as you put up a good fight, I'll consider myself defeated!" Rodney said contemptuously, his attitude turning even cockier as he tried to provoke Roanne into accepting his challenge to a duel. "You!" Angus, Yuri, and the rest of the Thompsons were outraged by this.

"What happened, Roanne? Why did you lose to Rodney so easily?" Angus asked in a low voice. "I don't know," Roanne replied rather sheepishly, looking a little remorseful. Since she was never in a real fight before, much less a duel, she still did not know how she managed to lose to Rodney within minutes! "Um," Seeing that not even Roanne could provide an answer, Angus and Yuri exchanged nervous glances. They all watched from beneath the stage and thus did not manage to witness the fight. All they saw was that Rodney unleashed just one attack, which took down Roanne as easily as ABC. However, none of them knew that Rodney secretly ambushed Roanne with a second attack disguised within the first one! However, the same could not be said for Leon! He and Cynthia were onstage when it happened, which meant they were in closer proximity to Rodney and Roanne. Not only that, but Leon was so worried about Roanne that he was watching Rodney carefully throughout. When Rodney first

The Southern Boss's heart sank when he saw that Leon saw right through Rodney's trick. Rodney's defeat of Roanne worked in their favor so much that he already decided to use this opportunity to sabotage the sales drive and bring the Thompsons down together! However, he never once imagined that Leon would be so sharp as to realize what Rodney did and even see right through him! This not only foiled their plans but even rendered all their efforts utterly futile! "Hey, Leon, don't be a sore loser! Roanne has already lost, and we all saw it with our own two eyes, so don't keep trying to find excuses for her failure!" the Southenr Boss said coldly as he stepped forward, trying desperately to turn the situation around. "I'm not trying to find excuses. I'm just spouting facts!" Leon replied indignantly. "Facts? What nonsense! The fact is that Roanne's advancement in power level is just a hoax and that you and the Thompsons staged this act and treated all of us like monkeys to ta
