Two hours later, a chilly sea breeze blew across the deserted docklands on the eastern edge of Oakdale.

Inside a massive, abandoned shipping warehouse near the pier, a single rusted bulb flickered overhead, casting long shadows across the concrete floor below.

Up on the second-floor steel walkway, Leon leaned lazily against the iron railing with his hands in his pockets, while Dark Knight stood respectfully by his side.

"How many of them were close enough to make it tonight?" Leon asked softly,

  • The Cup

    Upstairs in the main hall of the northern manor, Leon sat leaned back against the wide leather sofa after changing into a fresh set of dark clothes.A porcelain cup of hot green tea rested between his fingers, sending thin wisps of white steam curling into the air to replenish the energy he had spent pushing Dark Knight into the False Immortal Realm.Dark Knight stood quietly beside the sofa, his posture straight as a spear while he waited for his master to speak.For several minutes, nobody uttered a word in the hall.Leon stared down at the pale green tea swirling in his cup, his brows narrowing into a thin line as memories from five years ago began to surface in his mind.Five years ago, on the night of his eighteenth birthday and his official inheritance ceremony as the young master of the Sovereign Group, the entire ancestral estate had been bathed in blood.His father had been poisoned at the banquet table and slaughtered right in front of his eyes by the people they had once ca

  • Stepped

    Inside the Grand Imperial Hotel ballroom, the terrified socialites and businessmen scrambled backward toward the walls, knocking over chairs and tables in a mad rush to stay out of the fight.In the center of the red carpet, the twelve elite martial artists of the Sterling Family surrounded Leon and Dark Knight without leaving a single gap to escape.Leading the encirclement was Protector Scar, a ruthless Heavenly Realm expert that Patriarch Harold Sterling had spent ten million dollars a year to hire as the family's chief guardian."Brat, you should have stayed hidden in whatever rat hole you crawled out of!" Protector Scar sneered coldly, cracking his knuckles as surging Heavenly Realm Qi wrapped around his fists,"Take him down! Remember Young Master Victor's orders, break his limbs and leave him breathing!" He barked to the eleven Core Formation and Nascent Soul guards around him."Yes, Protector Scar!"Without hesitation, all twelve martial artists lunged forward at the exact sam

  • All Way

    Bright and early the next morning, the sun had barely risen over the treetops of Dark Knight's secluded estate.Allen strolled into the wide backyard training ground wearing a brand-new designer tracksuit and limited-edition running shoes, a towel draped casually around his neck.After a full night of rest and Leon's acupuncture, his bruises had completely faded, and his confidence had bounced right back up.In his head, even if that creepy guy called Shadow looked scary, martial arts training for a beginner couldn't be much harder than a high-end boxing class at a fitness club right?Well, that naive thought lasted right until he stepped onto the stone courtyard and stopped on his tracks.Under the shade of a wooden pavilion to the side, Leon was lounging comfortably in a wicker chair, sipping a cup of fragrant green tea.In the center of the training ground stood Number 5, holding a thick bamboo staff in one hand while four heavy iron vests, lead leg weights, and a steaming wooden b

  • Again

    At that moment, the door opened and Dark Knight walked into the Villa holding the herbs Leon requested."He has woken up?" Dark Knight frowned slightly, seeing Lallen hugging Leon."Yeah, but he's traumatized, we'll need to fix that and also treat his other illnesses," Leon responded, carrying Allen."Remember the herb I used on you when you were poisoned by one of your enemies?" Leon spoke as he walked towards one of the many rooms."Yes," Dark Knight nodded, wondering what Leon needed it for this time,"Go get it for me, I need to use it on this kid..." Leon spoke, opening the door of the nearest room."But...""It's not a rare herb in the sense you think it is," Leon chuckled, noticing Dark Knight's confusion."It might be a bit pricey, but it's not rare," He added and stepped into the room closing the door behind.Dark Knight sighed and went to get the herbs again.In no time, he was back. By the time he came back this time, Leon was already halfway through the treatment.As for A
