The entire bar fell silent, with everyone staring blankly at the lean person holding a hand that was twice the size of his own. No one could react for a moment, but eventually, the eyes of the Lion King, whose hand Xavier was holding, darkened with wrath. “Brat! Weren’t you the one I warned earlier to mind your business?” He snapped, his voice brimming with unhidden killing intent. Xavier, however, wasn’t bothered. Instead, continued maintaining his composed demeanor. “This lady here does not want to follow you, why are you forcing her?” He inquired calmly making everyone instant exchange stunned gazes. “This—this fool!” The bartender, whose gaze hadn’t left Xavier since the beginning scoffed with frustration and then hurriedly left what she was doing to rush over. “Lion King, hahahah. Please don’t mind this friend of mine. He appears to be too drunk to know what he was doing,” she stated with a smile, tearing Xavier’s hand away from the lion king. The Lion King quickly cast a glance at the bartender and growled but then hesitated before snorting. “I will let him go on your account then,” he said unhappily before sparing Xavier a dangerous glare and then ignoring him, casting his unhidden hungry-filled gaze back at the terrified beauty. “You’ve caused enough scene here already, let’s get going now,” he said darkly and threateningly before looking at his brother. “Let’s pick her up,” he said and the first lion king nodded his head, scaring Grace to the core. Although she was completely drunk and her mind was no longer functioning properly, she instinctively shrank back when she realized what the two were planning, her heart pounding fiercely with fear. Grace had heard many times from news about something like this happening, but she had never expected to encounter it the first time she decided to run away from her comfort zone and drown in her sorrow. She looked around for help but saw none. Instead, a few people watched her with pity, while the majority laughed, cheered on the Lion King, and praised the spectacle as a display of beauty. Just as Grace thought she was doomed, however, the composed voice she had heard earlier, which she thought was that of a savior sounded again. “Did I tell you that you can go with her?” The entire bar became eerie silent again, but it was soon broken and before long hushed voices filled the entire bar. “Is this guy a fool or what?” “Instead of being grateful for the Lion King’s forgiveness, he still chose to push your luck?” “Given his weak physique, wasn't he even supposed to keep a low profile instead of provoking people who could end his with a single snap!” Everyone mumbled and even the bartender, who had earlier pleaded on behalf of Xavier was stunned for a while before she sighed helplessly. She looked back to the Lion King and wanted to beg them again, but before she could open her mouth, they had already addressed her. “I listened to you earlier because of my respect and appreciation, but please, don’t try your luck too much,” they said in unison, their voices laced with an unmistakable menace. The Bartender immediately sighed upon hearing them and then looked at Xavier helplessly. Eventually, she shook her head and glanced back at the Two Lion Kings. “Please, for my sake, don’t give him a life-threatening injury.” “That, we can do,” the two responded and looked back coldly at Xavier. “Since you hate minding your goddamned business so much, get your ass over here and move this b!tch to our room for us!” The second King, whose hand Xavier had earlier held growled and the bar became silent again with everyone staring at Xavier, wondering what he would do. Contrary to their thoughts, however, Xavier, who had been calm all along did nothing. He just continued standing and watching lazily, acting as though he didn't feel the alarming intent closing in on him. “Bastard! Are you deaf?!” The voice of the second Lion King boomed, sending the hearts of the hearers banging against their chests, but still, Xavier did not react. This finally infuriated the two Lion Kings to the extent that they felt like killing someone. “Please forgive me,” the second Lion King said coldly to the bartender, then not waiting for a response stormed toward Xavier. “What I hate the most is people interfering in my affairs, offending me, and disrespecting my order. For daring to do all those, I’m going to castrate you,” he said coldly, then not waiting for any reaction, delivered a powerful kick to Xavier’s crotch. As soon as everyone saw this, their hearts skipped a beat, following which, their entire body went cold. They sighed deeply, suddenly feeling strong pity for Xavier. “He could have minded your business but unfortunately chose not to..” “This made me recall the last person who offended the Two Lion Kings. Hadn't he become a past today, yet, another little guy will join.” “What a stupid hero. Wouldn’t he live the rest of your life in pain and regret now, knowing he could have easily refused to help the needy,” the crowd sighed one after the other. Even Grace couldn’t help but be scared to death, watching what was going to happen. She opened her mouth, wanting to plead for mercy for Xavier, knowing she would never forgive herself if Xavier ended up getting hurt because of her. “Plea-“ she began to cry out when without any warning, her jaw dropped and her eyes constricted sharply. It wasn’t only hers, but literally everyone in the bar. If Xavier was like a thin pole, the Lion King attacking him would be a small mountain—muscular and imposing. Yet, at this moment, Xavier was casually holding his leg in his hand. That’s right and just then, a calm and composed voice filled with disbelief sounded. “You will castrate me just because I don’t want you to commit a wicked deed?”Latest Chapter
Chapter 1191 – The Revercrest Patriarch and His Right-hand Man’s Disbelief
*****The Bounty Hunter turned around eagerly and began walking ahead, practically bouncing with enthusiasm as he led them toward the area where the black Escalade had previously been parked.Behind him, the Patriarch followed at a measured pace, though inside his chest his heart was beating like a war drum.‘Finally.’Anticipation surged through his veins.Meanwhile, the right-hand man walked behind them while issuing quiet commands to the corpse puppets.Instantly, the silent figures began moving, their steps synchronized and eerily mechanical as they followed like obedient puppets.Everything seemed to be proceeding perfectly, until…The bounty hunter suddenly stopped, his body freezing mid-step.The sudden halt was so abrupt that it made the Patriarch narrow his eyes.“What’s wrong?” the old man asked, his voice remaining as cold, dark, and unnerving as ever.Hearing it, the bounty hunter visibly trembled, then slowly, he turned around.The moment his face became visib
Chapter 1190 – The Delighted Bounty Hunter
*****The newcomer looked as though he had just encountered the most famous celebrity in the world face-to-face and still hadn’t fully processed the miracle.His eyes were wide with disbelief at this moment, his breathing uneven, and the excitement vibrating through his body was so obvious that it practically leaked from every pore.One might have thought he had just shaken hands with a legend instead of standing before two men whose reputations alone could make most people in Riverton city tremble.For a moment, the man simply stood there, staring.Meanwhile, the Revercrest Patriarch and his right-hand man exchanged a brief glance… one of those silent communications shared between people who had worked together long enough to understand each other without words.After that short look, both of them returned their attention to the newcomer.“Did you discover the target?” the Patriarch asked, his voice carrying that same chilling tone as before… cold, dark, and eerily calm, like
Chapter 1189 – The Right-hand Man’s Horror
*****‘Who would have thought the mission would be this easy?’ The Revercrest Patriarch thought, a dangerous smile tugging faintly at the corners of his lips.Without even realizing it, his fingers slowly tightened against the armrest of the seat, still finding it difficult to believe how ‘lucky’ he was.‘Didn’t I say it?’ His eyes gleamed sharply as he recalled something. ‘I told those two overly ambitious brats of mine that one does not compete with one's own father.’The thought made him chuckle quietly to himself, a dark, cunning, and pleased sound.‘Hehehe…’I was worried twenty-four hours might be too short to find him, and yet… fate has practically handed him to me.’The old man’s eyes sparkled with cold satisfaction, nearly unable to calm his thoughts again.‘It seems the heavens themselves want me to get the reward.’But just as his mind reveled in the moment and he nearly revealed his emotions…“Um… master…”A sudden hesitant voice broke into his thoughts like a c
Chapter 1188 – The Horrified Guard
*****The driver of the black van himself was also dressed entirely in black, from the polished boots on his feet to the dark coat draped across his broad shoulders.However, unlike the rows of puppet-like men who had emerged from the van just now, the man appeared unmistakably human, his eyes alive… cold, calculating, but alive nonetheless.At this moment, those very eyes were locked onto the trembling security guard, his gaze terrifying, icy, and murderous.It felt less like someone was looking at him and more like a blade had been placed against his throat.And seeing it, the guard’s body stiffened instantly.He tried to hold the man’s stare for even a moment longer, but it felt as though the air had suddenly vanished from the world.His lungs struggled to draw breath, his vision blurred, and the pounding in his chest grew so violent that he feared his heart might rupture on the spot.‘I… am I going to die?’That was the only thought that echoed in his mind.The oppressiv
Chapter 1187 – The Unlucky Guard
*****At this moment, the guard’s mind struggled desperately to process the overwhelming pressure crushing down on him, but before it could…The sliding doors of the van slowly opened, and the scene inside… it nearly caused the guard’s soul to leave his body.Row after row of men dressed entirely in black sat inside the vehicle, their uniforms resembling a terrifying mixture of military and mercenary attire.Each man sat upright with perfect posture, their expressions emotionless and their eyes staring forward without blinking.For a horrifying second, the guard genuinely wondered if they were even alive.They looked less like human beings and more like life-sized dolls carved from stone.But the aura emanating from them was undeniable.Every single one of those men radiated an intense, predatory energy… dark, ferocious, and terrifying.It felt as though the van was filled with monsters wearing human skin.And seeing this scene, the guard’s entire body began to tremble uncon
Chapter 1186 – The Furious Guard
*****VRUMMMM!!!The sudden, violent roar of an engine shattered the calm atmosphere of the hospital compound.And before anyone could even react, a large black van shot through the hospital gate at an aggressive speed, its tires screeching faintly against the pavement as it barreled forward like a charging beast.The vehicle was massive, its exterior matte-black and intimidating, with every single window heavily tinted, making it impossible to see inside.The abrupt arrival startled everyone nearby, and instantly, the patients waiting outside jumped in fright.A nurse pushing a trolley nearly lost her grip on it, while even the birds resting on a nearby tree burst into the air in alarm.“This…!”The security guard flinched like everyone else, instinctively stepping back as the van thundered past the entrance.For a brief second, fear flashed across his face.But then… that fear transformed into pure rage.His face twisted with fury.The man had already been in a terrible
