Rowan Thompson’s face darkened at Anthony’s words.

In front of so many people, this kid had the nerve to call him a quack? It was a slap to his dignity.

Furious, Rowan barked, "Kid, if you can bring this woman back to life, I'll kneel, kowtow, and call you Grandfather!"

Hearing such a resolute vow, Anthony sneered, "I don't want a grandson as old as you. How about this—if I bring her back, you strip naked and streak through the hospital?"

"What the hell? Does he really think he can raise the dead?"

"Yeah! She has no vital signs at all. Isn’t this just a joke?"

Though Rowan was seething, he nodded firmly. "Fine! But if you fail..."

"The same!" Anthony said without hesitation. "I'll strip and run around naked too."

Rowan smirked coldly. "Good. You all heard him, right?"

"We heard!" the crowd echoed.

Without further delay, Anthony strode forward, lifted the white sheet, and revealed the pale face of Phoebe and Layla Nelson’s mother.

Without hesitation, Anthony flipped his hand, and a han

    As the bodyguards backed away, Otto Isaacson turned to Hazel and said coldly, “Miss Osborne, I’ll give you one last chance. I won’t make my men move if you come willingly.I suggest you take it. Otherwise… I won’t be so polite.”Hazel snapped without hesitation, “Get lost. I’m not interested!”That one line completely set Otto off.“Fine. You asked for it!”He gave a furious wave of his hand. “Get them!”Two bodyguards immediately lunged from both sides, reaching for Hazel’s shoulders.“Ah!!”Hazel cried out and instinctively shrank closer to Anthony.Anthony narrowed his eyes. As the two men closed in, he lifted both hands and, with a sharp motion, caught their wrists mid-air—then flung them aside like rag dolls.The two burly men flew through the air like sandbags, crashing into the ground.The rest of the bodyguards roared in anger and charged forward.One of them swept his leg at Anthony and shouted, “Who the hell are you to lay hands on the Isaacson family?!”“Dead man walkin

    Just as Hazel was feeling disappointed, the man in the black suit returned once again.Seeing him, Hazel immediately snapped, “Go back and tell your young master I’m not interested. Stop bothering us!”The man, however, wore a confident smile and said, “Miss, are you interested in checks? My young master said… if you’re willing to join him for a drink, you can write any amount you like on this.”As he spoke, he pulled out a blank check.Hazel’s expression changed instantly—furious.“How annoying can you be? Can’t you understand human language? Can’t your master? I don’t need money, and I don’t want to drink with him. Now get lost!”She was sitting across from a true powerhouse—Anthony.Finally, she had a rare chance to be alone with him. And now this guy just had to ruin it?She knew opportunities like these were once in a lifetime.The man’s face darkened slightly from her words, but he pressed on, “Miss, please reconsider. If you offend our young master, then—”“Give me the check,”

    Anthony brought Audrey Chambers and the others to the Aurelia City Airport.Since the Northern King wouldn’t be appearing for the time being, there was no reason for him to continue staying in Aurelia City.Besides, with Asura—one of the Northern King's subordinates—now by his side, it would be easy for the Northern King to locate him if he wanted to.So staying here served no further purpose. All he could do now... was wait.They boarded the plane together.By dusk, they landed at the Silverhaven City Airport.Audrey Chambers wanted to invite Anthony.Maya Norris wanted to invite him too.As for Hazel—of course she wanted to invite him the most.But as they exited the airport, Anthony suddenly turned to Hazel and said, "I'll go with you to the Osborne family."Hazel was stunned for a moment, then a delighted smile bloomed on her face.At the same time, Audrey’s expression darkened.Maya pouted and muttered under her breath, “Shameless vixen.”Anthony couldn’t be bothered to respond

    Blair Clarke didn’t wait for Jasmine Kirk to ask—she spoke immediately.Hearing this, Jasmine slowly turned around to face her.At that very moment—even Blair Clarke, who spent every day by Jasmine’s side—was momentarily stunned.Though she was so familiar with her, Jasmine still took her breath away.She was the very image of a mature goddess.Not delicate, but not cold. Seductive, but not vulgar. Gentle, but never weak. Proud, but never arrogant.Ever since she regained the use of her legs, this had been Jasmine Kirk’s true self.At first glance, she was like the big sister next door.At second glance—an aura of authority radiated from her.It was the kind of presence only someone long accustomed to power could possess.As Jasmine stepped closer, Blair felt that invisible pressure bearing down on her.“You found him? It’s really him?”Blair nodded solemnly. “It’s him, sis!”Jasmine fell silent, her expression becoming calm and unreadable.After a moment, she handed the watering can

    “Call the Northern King. I’ll let you die a little less painfully,” Anthony said coldly, eyes fixed on him.“Never…”Even under such pressure, Asura refused to yield.He was one of the Northern King’s men—his loyalty absolute.Yes, Anthony was terrifyingly strong—so strong it defied reason—but that didn’t change Asura’s resolve.Anthony didn’t seem at all bothered by the refusal. He simply ignored it and asked another question:“Why was he in that strange place?”Asura was terrified of Anthony, but he refused to reveal anything about the Northern King.Even if he truly didn’t know.“I don’t know. Don’t ask me. Just… kill me.”Asura’s eyes held a rare flicker of defiance.Still, Anthony didn’t respond. Instead, he asked a third question:“I’m a son of the Jones family. Was it the Northern King who destroyed us?”Asura’s expression changed the moment he heard that.He hesitated—then nodded.“Yes. The Jones family was annihilated by the Northern King.”“For the jade pendant, right?”Asur

And that elephant… was Anthony.She was left with nothing but awe.This man—who was even younger than her—was leagues stronger than anyone she had ever known.Meanwhile, Finn Smith and Three Donovan stood frozen, their expressions stiff and lifeless, their hearts sinking into despair.This… this was not the outcome they had anticipated.Now, their last shred of hope rested on Wuming.If Wuming could defeat Anthony, they still had a chance.He was their final hope.And truthfully, everyone present felt the same.At that moment—High above the arena, a murderous air swirled, tightly coiling around Anthony, waiting to strike.Wuming was circling, watching for any possible opening.But Anthony stood there, completely motionless, unbothered, not a trace of concern on his face.Seeing the man flit around like a pesky fly, Anthony sighed. “If you don’t strike soon, I will.”Still, Wuming kept probing
