"Allison, what's the meaning of this?" Elaine asked confused. She couldn't understand why Allison would plead the case of the two men.
"Young Mistress, you don't understand. I can't let them die. If you have to kill someone let it be me," Allison pleaded repeatedly. It also came as a surprise to Warren that Allison would want to trade her life for theirs."Allison, stop what you're doing right now! I will not allow it. Neither you nor Samuel is allowed to share in my punishment. I was the one who brought this all on me," Warren tried to reason with her.Watching this unfold before her eyes, Elaine became even more confused. "Allison, how do you know these two fools? I need a clear answer now or forgive me for not sparing your life!" Elaine warned Allison. Although she was regarded as the right-hand of Johnathan Parker, none of his children actually respected Alliso
"Allison, what happened to your arm?" Warren asked distressed. Allison brushed it off as if it was nothing and she didn't answer his question. However, Warren kept at it and demanded an answer. Soon Allison couldn't evade it anymore and then finally told Warren what happened after he and Samuel were allowed to leave."When you left, Young Mistress Elaine told me that letting you off so easily couldn't distinguish the fire she had in her heart. She was blinded with rage and she wanted to make someone pay. Since I was the only one there, she used some strange technique and used her hand to dislocated my shoulder. After that she simply ripped it off!" Allison explained. As she was explaining, tears were rolling down her cheeks. Warren could tell that Allison was in extreme pain and the psychological damage she received because of Elaine's attack was still fresh in her mind."Is that why you didn't contact me for the past two weeks? You were healing? Allison, why couldn't
Warren could feel that something was different as he cultivated. His body temperature rose again, but this time it was stable. It wasn't as if he was about to explode from heat, rather the steady increase in temperature felt comfortable to his abdomen. Warren cultivated for almost 24 hours, and when he finally opened his eyes, he realized that he finally made a breakthrough. Warren broke through to the B-Class rank and his sublevel was level 1. Although he raised only one rank, the jump in his Reiteki control was enormous. Warren felt that he had the power to do anything he set his mind to. He could even shoot Reiteki blasts from his palms.For the next 3 days, Warren cultivated relentlessly. It wasn't so much as to raise his cultivation level anymore, rather than to refine it. After the three-day period was over, Warren stepped out of the house. He went to the bridge again and to his surprise, that time, the old beggar was waiting for him.Warren approache
"What do you mean I will find out who killed my mother? What does she even have to do with The Fire Fangs?" Warren asked confused. Something didn't add up. It felt like Ford was using underhanded tricks in trying to lure him to assist with taking down his foes."You're currently at the B-Class rank. The scripture I gave to you back then contains secrets that you will only know once you have gathered enough power. You should know that with every raise in rank, you're blessed with new knowledge. Am I right?" Ford asked him. His explanation made a lot of sense, but Warren couldn't help but be skeptical."The Fire Fangs plan to make their move in a year's time. That gives us enough time for preparation. I need you to get stronger. If you could only harness a fraction of what you're capable of, I think you could stand a chance against the Ferocious Five. The weakest of the Five is at the A-Class, Level 7 rank of cultivation. I will need you to reach that level in 6 mo
For the next week, Warren went about his business as if nothing was going on. He attended his classes and he went out with Samuel to have fun. Samuel tried his best not to think about Warren's departure.One day after his class, Warren were going to the cafeteria as usual. He went to collect his lunch. Although he was rich and had more money than most people could even imagine, he still had a soft spot for the food from the campus cafeteria. He would only dine at the top restaurants when he had important business with other people.As Warren was enjoying his lunch, Claudia walked over to him. She was Lloyd Williams' girlfriend once upon a time, until he let her go for greener pastures. Ever since Claudia saw Warren beat up the men she hired to teach him a lesson, she fell for him. It wasn't only because she witnessed Warren's strength firsthand, it was also because she felt that Warren was deeper than he let on. He had one of the kindest souls and that's wh
30 minutes later, they arrived in front of the Heavenly Sky Diner. Claudia led Warren to the entrance and then requested for one of the restaurant's better seats. She had to prove to Warren that she could afford to dine at such a place. A waitress brought them to a table and then took their order.Since she was paying, Warren thought it would be fun to make Claudia sweat a little. He requested one of the more expensive dishes on the menu and a 15 year old bottle of wine which cost 2 thousand dollars. When Claudia saw which wine Warren ordered, she became worried immediately. He was blowing through her budget on purpose.Their food arrived and Warren enjoyed the meal thoroughly. He didn't have his fill it at the cafeteria since Claudia interrupted him, but now he could eat to his heart's content. Claudia didn't enjoy the meal, she was only worried about the bill. By her estimations, she calculated that it would cost roughly around 8 thousand dollars to settle the
Warren took a deep breath and began. He started his tale by telling Olivia about his breakup with Jennifer. As he was unloading, he felt lighter. He told her about the emotions he experienced and how lost he felt when he caught Jennifer with Charles. "I'm so sorry. I didn't know you went through something like that," Olivia responded. "Through that tragedy I got to meet Claudia, the girl who I had lunch with at noon," Warren said. He then explained the ridiculous circumstances in which he was caught red-handed by Claudia in her ex-boyfriend's room and mistook him for a peeping Tom. Olivia laughed at Warren's bad luck and told him to continue. Warren did just that and also told her about how he was beaten up. "I saw the video of someone getting beaten up so pitifully. Who would have thought that was you," Olivia said as she tried to hold her laughter. "You can laugh all you want now, but I literally saw my life flash before my eyes,"
Warren met up at the agreed time with Ford. He was waiting for him, and although Warren took his sweet time, Ford was glad to see that he honored his promise. "Are you ready to get stronger?" James Ford asked. Warren had a resolute expression on his face. There was no way he could pull out of it now. He had to grow stronger to confront the Parkers. Then there was also the added threat of the Fire Fangs. Ford made it sound as if they might also know something about the circumstances of Warren's mother's death. He couldn't let anything go without knowing if there might be any weight to Ford's words. "Have you decided where we're going? I suppose this terrain isn't suitable for my training, right?" Warren asked Ford. The elderly men, nodded and then he told Warren to get ready. After that, he sprinted ahead. Warren used all his energy to keep up, but he couldn't catch up. Luckily for him, Ford wasn't using all his speed, otherwise he would have surel
Although he asked Allison to return to Flemond, she still chose to stay for 2 extra days. She hadn't seen Warren in such a long time, so why would she leave him so abruptly. Allison also explained that during his absence, his businesses flourished nicely. The profit he made during his 12 month absence, exceeded 1 billion dollars. It came as a surprise that the Flemond Apothecary made almost 100 million dollars profit. As expected, the two companies which brought the most in was the Galaxy Tech Lane and the Heavenly Sky Diner. His hotel, the Stargaze Hotel, also didn't do too bad. Since he was away, Allison paid all the profits into Warren's personal account. With the interest it accumulated over that time period, Warren almost had 2 million dollars in his bank account. This amount included the 500 million dollars he received from Johnathan Parker and the 40 million dollars he stole from Christopher Chamberlain. After 48 hours, Warren kept on insis
