Chapter: don't be so confident"Am I seeing things?"The three fighters beside Vincent rubbed their eyes and looked at each other in disbelief.There was no parachute and no safety rope. How had he landed without injury?Everyone was completely stunned. It was truly beyond comprehension."Master Ethan, you're here!" Spencer said in shock. The moment he saw Ethan, his confidence surged and he stopped worrying about the fighters Vincent had brought.Although he had already seen Master Ethan dodge bullets before, watching him descend from the sky still left him speechless.The bearing Ethan carried today felt completely different to Spencer than before.If the previous Ethan had been calm like still water, the Ethan standing before him now was like a peerless sword drawn from its sheath."Master Ethan? Could that be Ethan? Is he your leader?" Vincent said with a stunned and doubtful expression. He found it difficult to believe.Vincent looked at Ethan and immediately felt a chill run down his spine when their eyes met

Chapter: who are youEast District, Clearwater River.This place was nothing like the abandoned Flying Fish Pier. It was an active dock, with boats coming and going, and factories and warehouses storing large quantities of goods.This was property of the Crawford Family in Clearwater City.The workers who usually filled the factories and docks were gone.Dozens of off-road vehicles were parked across the empty concrete yard. Strong men sat inside them. The motorcades from both sides faced off in tense silence.A tea table stood in the middle, with two men seated across from each other.Spencer wore a floral shirt, casually twirling a string of prayer beads. Across from him sat a young man with a cold aura, dressed in a brown jacket, his eyes sharp and sinister.On a nearby platform, a burly man wielding a machete was fighting a man in his thirties. Every strike was aimed at vital points, each move fierce and deadly.Suddenly—Crack!The machete shattered in the burly man’s hands, broken in two by his oppo

Chapter: The Hartley Family Is Under Control“I’ve been hearing something lately,” Robert said quietly. “A phrase making the rounds among the elite families in Imperial City — the Hartley Family is under control.”He let out a slow breath before continuing. “It means the Ashford Family has risen to the very top of Dragon Country, completely replacing the Hartley Family. Madam Ashford, the old master’s widow, has taken over everything—connections, businesses, influence… all of it.”His voice darkened. “There are fortune tellers all over Imperial City talking about it. Every reading points to the same thing—the Hartley Family’s luck has been cut off. Finished. Meanwhile, the Ashford Family has been building their rise for over a decade. According to them, this was inevitable… like fate itself decided it.”Ethan Ford stood still, his expression unreadable, though something cold flickered in his eyes.“What a load of nonsense,” Robert added bitterly. “The Ashford Family didn’t rise by fate—they wiped out the Hartley Family and took

Chapter: see youThe sun rose slowly over the horizon.Ethan left Snow Dragon Villa and headed toward the city center.Seated in the back of the car, his expression remained calm, his eyes cold and distant.Early that morning, he had received a text message:See you The message came from an unknown number, routed through an untraceable IP address.Ethan glanced into the rearview mirror at an inconspicuous black Audi trailing hundreds of meters behind. A faint, contemptuous smile crossed his lips.The taxi drove for a while before suddenly turning into an alley. Moments later, it circled back and stopped directly in front of the black Audi, near a small supermarket.Inside the Audi, two men in black lowered their military binoculars, staring at the taxi in disbelief.“How is this possible? How did Ethan spot us?” No.7 asked.“He made the taxi turn around… Is he planning to confront us?” No.6 said, uneasy.Following Victoria’s orders, their daily task had been to track Ethan and observe his movements.

Chapter: childish“Don’t go! Stop right there!” Victoria shouted, grinding her teeth in anger as she glared at Ethan’s retreating back.“You humiliated Nathan like that. That’s a blood feud! Without me protecting you, do you think you can survive in Clearwater City?” she snapped.“Childish.”Ethan didn’t even turn around.Victoria puffed her cheeks, taking a deep breath as she watched him walk away, her anger boiling over.“Childish? Me?” she muttered in disbelief. Then she turned to the men beside her. “No.6, No.7, don’t you think that guy is weird?”No.6 hesitated. He wanted to say that she was the one acting childish in front of Ethan, but he didn’t dare.“Miss Victoria, before you and No.7 arrived, I saw Ethan face more than ten gunmen without any fear,” No.6 said seriously. “It was like he was looking at a group of ants. That kind of presence can’t be faked.”Victoria frowned slightly. “How do you know he wasn’t just scared stiff?”“Miss Victoria, I’ve spent years overseas and witnessed many dange

Chapter: you're nothing but her dogA cold-looking man dressed in black appeared silently behind Nathan. He lifted a long black case shaped like a fishing bag and pressed it firmly against the back of Nathan’s head.Nathan froze. His face turned pale as he slowly raised his hands, sweat beading on his forehead.“Hey… don’t do anything stupid,” Nathan said nervously. “That gun could go off…”He could feel the cold barrel against his skull. A chill ran through his entire body.“Tell your bodyguards to drop their weapons. All of them—kneel down,” the man in black said coldly.“Do it! All of you, kneel!” Nathan barked in panic.Seven or eight suited bodyguards immediately threw their guns aside and crouched on the ground with their hands up.“Brother… can you lower the gun?” Nathan’s voice trembled. “Guns aren’t toys…”As he spoke, Nathan cautiously turned his head to glance behind him. The moment he saw the man, his expression changed drastically.“You’re No.6? You’re the one pointing a gun at me?” Nathan’s voice shook wit

Chapter: Carter's investigationThe van smelled of cigarettes and industrial cleaner, which was a specific combination that Kelvin filed away as information about the kind of operation he was walking into.He sat in the back with his four bodyguards arranged around him in the configuration of people who were supposed to be holding him and were actually protecting him, which required a specific quality of acting that all four of them were managing with professional competence.He kept his head down and thought.Carter had not acted alone. The dinner had been arranged too specifically, the coordination with the kidnapping attempt had been too clean. Someone had told Carter that Anna and Derek would be at that location. Someone had arranged Brother Long as a backup when the dinner plan failed.The question was the same one he had asked in the hospital room before Derek briefed him.Who knew.The van stopped.The Imperial Entertainment Club had the specific aesthetic of a place that had spent a significant amount of mon

Chapter: cultural relics group“The time has come for you two to step in. Yesterday, three new students from Ebinghao Business School—and the woman who brought me here. As for the two men, don’t kill them… but make them suffer as much as possible.”The moment he finished speaking, Ryan closed his eyes again, a blissful, almost euphoric expression spreading across his face, as if he were drifting off to heaven.Hearing those words, the tattooed man felt his heart pound. If Ryan hadn’t been paying him so well, he wouldn’t have bothered dealing with such filth. Over the years, he had already helped him abduct countless women—every single one of them beautiful.Seeing that Ryan had nothing more to say, the tattooed man quietly left the room.There was no way he could stomach that scene any longer. The moment he stepped out of the private room, he hurried off to his own quarters to vent his frustration.Of course, he didn’t forget the task Ryan had just assigned. After all, every time he handled such matters in the past

Chapter: Mr RyanBefore hanging up, Frank could hear someone beside him asking who was on the other end of the call.At that moment, Kelvin finally understood why his father could be so cold and ruthless toward ordinary people. It was because kindness meant nothing to those who didn’t value it.Less than ten seconds later, Kelvin’s phone rang again. It was the Carter Group representative.“This is the second time. I don’t want it happening again. You have one hour to gather all illegal evidence on the Civil and Martial Group. If you can’t find any, then make something happen. I’ll be waiting for you at Meridian Tower.”Kelvin didn’t believe for a second that Ryan’s company was clean. If there was dirt to uncover, that was the best place to start.Anna, who was driving, said nothing as she glanced at Kelvin. The sudden shift in him—cold, sharp, and distant—made him feel like a stranger.On the way, Kelvin drifted off again, still dizzy. When he woke up, the car had already been parked outside Meridian

Chapter: are you stupid?“Carter, do you really not want to leave any hope for yourself?”Kelvin, who needed to take care of Anna at the moment, couldn’t intervene in the fight between them. Seeing that Ryan was about to join in, Kelvin’s sharp words scared him into stopping in his tracks.When he saw that Carter, who Kelvin considered slightly more reasonable, had actually stopped, Ryan couldn’t understand why Carter would suddenly listen to Kelvin. He hesitated and stopped as well.“Carter, you…”“Get lost! You what? If you don’t want to die, then don’t f*cking meddle in this!”Ryan, already at a disadvantage, was instantly knocked to the ground by a whip kick from Derek without Carter or Ryan backing him up.“Don’t go too far! My second uncle is powerful!”Ryan, sprawled on the ground, shouted when he saw Derek’s expressionless face. Derek originally hadn’t planned to go further, but after hearing the threat, he strode forward, stepped hard on Ryan’s left arm, and crushed it without mercy.The sound of bon

Chapter: beat him to death"F*ck, you still want to resist? Brothers, beat him to death!"Seeing Kelvin Carter fight back, the hoodlums felt insulted and rushed at him even more aggressively.In just a few seconds, one of them had already charged straight at Kelvin. As fists and kicks came flying toward him, Derek quickly and carefully set Anna down before rushing to Kelvin’s side to help."Ah—!"Before Derek could even make his move, a scream like a pig being slaughtered echoed through the room. But it didn’t come from Kelvin—it came from the thug leading the charge.At that moment, Kelvin stood calmly with a retractable baton in his hand, his posture steady, eyes locked on the group in front of him.One thug lay on the ground clutching his thigh, wailing and trembling violently, as if trying to show just how much pain he was in.The rest of the hoodlums clearly lacked real fighting experience—or courage. Seeing the weapon in Kelvin’s hand, they hesitated, cursing loudly but not daring to step forward again.R

Chapter: cut to the chaseKelvin clearly saw Ryan, that little guy, slip into the restaurant the moment they got out of the car. He didn’t need to think twice—Ryan was obviously going in to leak information.As they stepped inside, they coincidentally ran into Carter, who was just walking out.A man like him always wore a smile, but there was no telling what was really on his mind.He never expected Anna to be there as well. A flicker of surprise crossed his eyes, but it quickly disappeared as he greeted the three of them with a warm smile and invited them inside.As Anna walked past him, he actually tried to touch her. Kelvin, quick as ever, pulled her aside before he could succeed.“My apologies, I may have been a bit rude earlier. Since we’re not properly acquainted, let me introduce myself. Carter Webb, vice president of Webb Corporation. Family business, nothing too impressive,” he said with a laugh.As soon as he finished speaking, he snapped his fingers. Ryan and Carter’s other lackey walked in from out
