0352: Wipe Out Your Aristocratic Family
The journey to the estate went smoothly and uninterrupted. After passing through the grand entrance of the estate and the alarming number of guards stationed there, the car drove around the estate for about thirty minutes before it came to a stop in front of an opulent house that looked similar to a château."Please, follow me," Roland Harrington smiled brightly as he led the two young men out of the car and into the house.As they walked through the entrance, dozens of curious eyes rested on Kian and Wesley. There were more than a dozen women and children dressed sophisticatedly.Kian casually glanced around, and his brows arched when he saw two familiar faces, but he couldn't remember where he had seen them before. "These are all the direct descendants of my Harrington's family," Roland Harrington introduced them with a warm smile.But when the old man turned to his family, his smile faded slightly. "Aren't you going to greet the young master and his companion, the new leader of th
0352: If iIt Wasn't For Your Support...
When Kian stepped out of the cemetery, he looked up at the sky. It was as if he just noticed that the skies had already darkened. He exhaled deeply as the gentle breeze tousled his hair and swept away the gloom that had lingered in his heart all day.The fierce, murderous aura that had surrounded him all day also dissipated. Hurried footsteps came from behind, catching his attention.He turned around to see Roland Harrington. A grateful smile graced his lips, although the old man couldn't see it, and he clasped his bruised palms together."Thank you for your help today, Roland."Roland Harrington was momentarily taken aback as he hadn’t expected Kian to suddenly thank him. But he regained his composure almost immediately and returned the gesture with a slightly stiff smile."It was nothing."Since the beginning of the ancient martial arts contest, which had taken a strange, interesting turn, Roland Harrington witnessed Kian's ruthless and indecisive nature for himself.Now, seeing hi
350: Hundreds Stepped Backwards
Kian inhaled deeply, snapping back to reality as he looked up at the crowd. At that moment, the expressions on the faces of the aristocratic Harrington's family members were serious. The others from the three minor families looked absolutely terrified! In quest for revenge, this derailed masked man has taken numerous reckless actions.Now that the coffin was empty and Garrett's body had mysteriously vanished, what would he do next? Would he completely burn down the entire district just to find the missing corpse?Everyone was filled with dread of what was to come. Charlotte Lane, Collins Faye, his son Franklin Faye, and Archer Hall felt a deeper sense of despair.As a matter of fact, the father and son duo began to wish the coffin had fallen back and crushed them to death in the grave pit. Then they wouldn't have to face the wrath of this masked man.The four of them were disheartened. They weren't involved in the disappearance of Garrett's body, but how would they explain it without
0349: The Missing Corpse
If not madness, then why would this masked man do this? However, just as they all looked at the shattered coffin, they froze in shock.This was because amidst the splintered and shattered insect infested woods, there was nothing. Just a pile of broken wood. Nobody. Not even a scrap of clothing!Garrett had been buried less than a month ago. Could a corpse completely decompose in such a short time? There wasn't even a single bone! No, that's impossible. Unless—Kian's pupils trembled. His suspicion had just been confirmed. The coffin had indeed been an empty coffin! Realization also dawned on everyone slowly.There was no way there would be a pile of shattered woods unless the coffin was an empty coffin. Charlotte Lane and Collins Faye both blanched in shock."Master... Sire... It wasn’t me! I didn’t do this!" Charlotte stammered, shaking her head before any accusation had even been made. "I saw him being buried with my own two eyes!""We had nothing to do with this..." Archer Hall add
0348: Drop The Coffin
"Hmm, lift it up," Kian nodded calmly. A flicker of hope appeared on their faces, and they heaved a sigh of relief. They quickly got up on their feet, although shakily. After catching their breath, they bent with great difficulty in order to lift the coffin. Even Collins Faye, whose legs were shaky and bloody, joined them.However, his son, Franklin, couldn't do anything useful either, as his legs were already completely useless. CREAK!The dark coffin squeaked loudly as if in protest as it was finally raised. The people lifting it gritted their teeth painfully and carefully moved it out of the grave pit. However, because they had knelt and dug for too long, some of them were already weary, particularly Collins Faye. Their other relatives watched in horror as the coffin began to sway from side to side!The weakest among them, Collins Simon, was knocked over In the process, he fell over his crippled son, who was still sitting on the ground. They cried out loud as they both tumbled
0347: "Sir... Can We... Stand Now?"
Kian stood in front of the desolate grave stone quietly, lost in thoughts. Behind him were Wesley, Roland Harrington, Charlotte Lane, and the people who were kneeling. They were all silent, not daring to speak and disturb his quiet time with the deceased. After a long time, when many knees had begun to grow weary, Kian took a deep breath and smiled, murmuring to himself,"This gravestone is too shabby. This spot is too desolate. It doesn't suit your personality. Am I wrong, Garrett?"No one answered only a never ending silence. But Kian didn't seem to care. If anything, his smile grew wilder. "Today, I will have some people move your grave..."Roland Harrington was quick to decipher the meaning of his words. He turned to Charlotte Lane, Collins Faye, and the other people on their knees abruptly. "What are you all still waiting for? Go on!"Charlotte nodded quickly and was the first person to crawl over. Collins Faye, Archer Hall, and a few other members who had directly orchestrated
0346: A Lonely And Desolate Gravestone
"Fine," Kian nodded at the brave, young men who had spoken. "Give me one reason why your entire family shouldn't be punished, and I promise I will let you all go."Silence washed over the crowd. The youths exchanged a look. Is this man messing with them? Could he actually have meant what he just said? Will he really let them go?But before any of them could speak, Kian shrugged, "Time's up. None of you could say a word. I gave you your chance but you already missed it.""But...""But...""But..."Kian's cold eyes silenced the youths who tried to speak again. His amused demeanor completely faded as he pointed at them."The perpetrator of the crime was the patriarch of your family. He was the leader of the entire family. You all knew he was in the wrong, but none of us did anything to stop it!"Kian took a step towards them, causing hundreds of bodies to tremble and retreat backward hastily."Because of that, none of you hypocrites have any right to negotiate with me!"Kian's tone was c
0345: I Refuse!
But Archer Hall also wore a sorrowful expression and his face was devoid of all colours. Behind him, the direct members of the Hall family followed suit. Their faces also reflected the weight of the moment.Next came the Smith's family. As the onlookers' eyes fell on the procession of this family, their hearts trembled violently and some gasped in shock. In the lead were five members of the Smith's family who were carrying a stretcher. This person lying on the stretcher was the patriarch of their family Simon Smith.To be precise, it was the lifeless body of the plump man. He looked drawn and colorless. There was a conspicuous, see-through hole in his forehead.It looked as if something had drilled past his skull! It was horrendous as blood continued to seep through the open wound, staining the cream colored robe on the deceased. This sight will forever haunt the onlookers.However, after their initial shock, curiosity washed over them. How did the mighty Simon Stone die?! Why was he
0344: The Man In The Mask
More discussions like that continued throughout the entire district. Everyone was confused and wanted to know what the aristocratic Harrington's family and the masked man were up to.But no one was brave enough to defy the orders and step out of their house. They could only continue to speculate in the walls of their home. Time continued to tick away.Finally, at that point, a tall figure stood at the end of the major street in the Blackwood's District. In an instant, thousands of eyes from the streets and buildings alike focused on him.Under the watchful gaze of the crowd, Kian, masked and dressed in a bloodstained all-black attire, walked down the empty streets slowly and steadily. His expression was calm, and he was flanked on both sides by two people.As the people peeking from the homes caught a clear view of the figure on his right side, a collective gasp echoed from several buildings.This was because the man was none other than the patriarch of the aristocratic Harrington's
