*****

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?”

    *****At this point, the old man wasn’t treating Xavier like a grandmaster anymore, no.He was now treating him like a walking deity that just happened to be riding in the passenger seat of his car.As for the Prime Minister… he only allowed himself a tiny, trembling sigh of relief after confirming that Xavier wasn’t upset. Then he forced himself to face the road again.But his mind… it looked nothing like calm.Right now, his insides were in turmoil and pure chaos... his frantic thoughts crashing into each other and shouting like they were all scrambling to survive.And the more he tried to calm himself, the stronger the mental commotion grew.Was it Xavier’s strength? Absolutely yes.In fact, that alone was enough to turn any sane person into a paralyzed mess.He kept replaying Xavier’s casual statements in his head… how the young man had trivialized a battle that had practically traumatized the entire city.Riverton’s citizens were still whispering about it in fear, proba

  • Chapter 976 – The Prime Minister’s Envy

    *****The moment the Prime Minister heard and processed Xavier’s words, his brain detonated into metaphorical confetti, his body stiffened, and his eyes constricted so sharply that they almost disappeared.“Un…” the old man croaked. “Under your… your protection?”In response, Xavier only gave a small, simple nod of his head.But… that nearly made the old man faint right there in the car.Being under the protection of someone like Xavier wasn’t just an advantage… it was practically divine shielding.It was like being handed a cheat code to life, immortality, and political supremacy all at once.His heart leaped again as a thought slammed into him with a crazed intensity.'The mere second-rank Myron family… has instantly become the family in the city.'He didn’t know whether to cackle or wail.On one hand, he felt a soul-deep envy twist his insides.Why wouldn’t he?Anyone under the Erudite Grandmaster’s protection wasn’t merely untouchable… they were practically mythic.Th

  • Chapter 975 – The Family is Under My Protection

    *****The elderly Prime Minister slowly turned to Xavier with stiff joints and a trembling jaw. “I… I didn’t mean to scold you, grandmaster,” he blurted out, his voice cracking as he turned pale.He wanted to cry deeply, recalling how confidently and how stupidly he had complained to Xavier about the two A-rank fighters.He had reported them like a diligent employee running to HR to tattle, completely oblivious to the fact that Xavier himself was one of those apocalyptic beings.At this point, he wanted to roll down the window and bash his forehead on the highway railings.Fortunately, Xavier only rolled his eyes.“You didn’t scold me,” he said lazily, stretching with the kind of casual ease only a walking natural disaster could have. “And honestly, if you had, I would’ve deserved it.”“This…”The old man nearly combusted on the spot. ‘Deserve it?’‘DESERVE IT?!’What sane human would dare to chastise someone who could turn them into a fine mist? Certainly not him… and certa

  • Chapter 974 – Fake Ranks and Genuine Ranks II

    *****As the second drawback of practicing the Genuine Branch of cultivation…Even if you had the perfect physique, could endure the pain, and managed to cultivate properly… stepping into the next rank was a nightmare.A genuine ranker might spend their entire lifetime trapped at one rank… unable to advance but still strong enough to wipe out the next two fake ranks above them.And to find a genuine A-rank fighter… it was insane, rare, and incredibly monstrous.And that… was why the Prime Minister had never considered Xavier an A-rank fighter, because if he, a genuine ranker, truly reached A-rank…Wouldn’t that make him a one-man extinction-level event, a walking catastrophe, and a force of nature that had no opponent on the planet?Even among fake cultivators, reaching A-rank was nearly impossible. Only one in ten thousand fighters ever achieved it.But a genuine A-rank? It was very rare, legendary, and the kind of thing ancient sects recorded in trembling handwriting because

  • Chapter 973 – Fake Ranks and Genuine Ranks

    *****Actually, the Prime Minister already knew that Xavier was powerful… terrifyingly powerful, in fact. After all, reaching the realm of an erudite grandmaster wasn’t something one achieved by merely reading books until dawn, having oceans of knowledge about the world, or sipping tea with condescending elegance.No. To become an erudite grandmaster, one needed the kind of strength that could send mountains into therapy.But the problem was… he had never truly considered Xavier’s level.Not once had the thought crossed his mind that the Grandmaster he treated with such great reverence and respect could possibly have anything to do with the two A-rank fighters who nearly tore the heavens apart three days ago.If he had even suspected such a thing, he wouldn’t have been merely “concerned.” No, he would have been hysterically polishing Xavier’s shoes, offering up his political enemies as tribute, and possibly naming a holiday, places, and buildings after him.And now… with Xavier’

  • Chapter 972 – A Shocking Realization

    *****“Sir…” the Prime Minister began, his voice trembling nervously, “Sir Grandmaster…”Seeing him like this, Xavier’s entire demeanor sharpened, suddenly alert. 'What happened? Did something serious occur?'But then…“In case you were in the city three days ago, I would like to apologize,” the Prime Minister blurted out, his tone full of shame. “For failing to keep the city thoroughly protected… and allowing two A-rank fighters to turn everything upside down.”Xavier, “_”He blinked, momentarily taken aback.“What,” he asked slowly, staring at the man as though he had just confessed to burning down the continent, “are you talking about?”The old man hesitated again… apparently, his new hobby, and scratched his head awkwardly. “I mean the night three days ago… when it felt like the world was ending.”He sighed heavily, as though reliving the trauma.“Actually, the rest of the city thought a natural disaster had tried to occur that night. But…” He lowered his voice dramatica
