The atmosphere in the room immediately became heavy as Leonard walked in.
Larson narrowed his eyes with a cold smile.
Larson had intended to pick a fight with Leonard, but he didnât expect Leonard to come to him.
âLeonard, your boldness surprises me. How dare you create trouble at the Cruz family banquet? Are you seeking death?â
With the backing of Larson, Wilder brimmed with selfâassurance as he aggressively threatened Leonard.
Despite Wilderâs threats, Leonard simply smiled and scanned the crowd of the Cruz family, calmly stating, âWilder, youâve got guts. I warned you last time that if you ever showed up in front of my sister again, Iâd break your legs. It seems you didnât take me seriously.â
When Leonard mentioned the past event, Wilder immediately remembered the inhumane actions that Leonard had taken at that time. A look of terror flickered across Wilderâs eyes.
However, Wilder quickly regained his poise and shouted, âLeonard, donât try to act tough. Do you really think Iâm the same person from a few days ago? My uncle is here with me.â
Wilder proudly continued, âLeonard, do you know who my uncle is? He comes from the Acosta family in Imperial City and is in charge of the family business.
âIâm sure youâve heard of the Acosta family, havenât you? Among the many powerful families in Imperial City, they are widely regarded as one of the most influential.
âWith the power of the Acosta family, killing you is as easy as killing an ant.
âEven the president of Newden Chamber of Commerce, Waylon Lambert, has a great deal of respect.
for my uncle.â
Hearing his nephew brag about him like that, Larson couldnât help but show some arrogance.
âYou are Leonard, right? My nephew mentioned youâre quite tough, daring to use guns to take lives.
However, your soâcalled skills are nothing but childâs play to me, and you are just someone that sees the world through a narrow lens. Frankly, itâs rather absurd.â
Leonard replied calmly. âThinking that you completely understand the world simply because you view it through a bigger lens, isnât that even more absurd?
âYour status as a lackey for the Acosta family means nothing. Even if the head of the Acosta family were here, they would just be a small fry in my eyes.â
âWhat the hell did you say? How dare you insult my uncle and call him a lackey! Iâll make you pay for your disrespect!â Wilder cursed angrily.
Leonard ignored him completely and stared at Larson with a steely gaze. âYou had the opportunity to live any disturbance from us. But instead, you chose to misuse your power to defend your nephew.
your life without âAfter all these years of hard work at the Acosta family, you have finally inade a name for yourself. Why do you have to throw it all away?â
Leonard lowered his eyes, sighing softly.
âLeonard, are you f ucking listening to me?â Wilder bellowed furiously.
Clutching a wine bottle, Wilder advanced towards Leonard with rage in his eyes. âWho do you think you are, showing such arrogance in front of my uncle? Iâll smash your head open!â he hurled.
But before the boule could come down, Leonard grabbed Wilderâs wrist.
With a snap. Wilderâs wrist was broken.
Wilder screamed in pain.
âAhâ¦
âHow dare you lay a hand on my son?â
Rowell scolded loudly upon seeing his son injured.
Larson also stood up, staring at Leonard with murderous intent. âYou have no idea what youâre getting yourself into.â Leonard sna tched the bottle and broke it over Wilderâs head. Blood flowed down Wilderâs face, and he stumbled backward, falling to the ground.
âWhat am I getting myself into? Would you like to discuss it further?â
Leonard casually threw the bottle on the ground and looked at Larson with ease as if what he had done was not a big deal.
11:53 âYou will die, Larson said coldly, picking up a chair and swinging it towards Leonard.
âBang!â
With a single punch, Leonard shattered the chair into pieces. Wood chips flew everywhere, and some were even embedded in the walls âItâs no surprise you came here alone. Your skills are quite impressive,â Larson said with a cold voice.
Larson was also surprised by Leonardâs abilities.
Earlier, Larson had launched a chair at Leonard with great power. However, Leonard easily destroyed it with one punch.
This level of strength could only be achieved at the Superior Level of the Power Realm.
However, Larson was not at all alarmed.
Larson was known as the King of Fighters in the martial world and had entered the Strength Realm three years ago.
In the next moment, Larson leaped up like a tiger and pounced on Leonard.
As he moved, an intense killing intent radiated from his body, creating a whirlwind that filled the entire room.
Larson was skilled in the Tiger Punch of the 12 Animal Forms.
Despite being around 10 feet away from Leonard, Larson closed the gap instantly with lightningâfast speed.
Moving with blinding speed. Larson struck Leonardâs head with a fist, delivered another crushing blow to his chin, and drove his knee forcefully into Leonardâs chest Larson fought like a tiger, striking with all limbs.
Leonard sneered as he deftly sidestepped Larsonâs attack. He then made a powerful punch that produced a thunderous boom as it traveled through the air âAfter hearing the sound of punches breaking through the air, Larsonâs expression suddenly changed.
âA punch breaking the sound barrier? How is this possible?â Larson thought But there was no time left for Larson to be shocked.
With the deafening sound of the fist, it hit Larsonâs chest like a cannonball.
âCr ackâ
The force of Leonardâs blow was like that of a sledgehammer, causing Larson to spit out a mouthful of blood as his body was. hurled through the air and smashed into the wall.
After landing, half of Larsonâs chest collapsed inwards.
Standing beside them. Rowell was momentarily stunned and forgot to be afraid as he watched in wonder.
Rowell was very clear about the strength of his younger brother With his powerful fists, Larson could kill a cow with one strike.
But now, Larson was vomiting blood from Leonardâs punch.
Wilder, who had been knocked down by Leonard, finally sta ggered to his feet.
When Wilder saw what happened, his body began to tremble in fear.
âI gave you a chance last time, but itâs a pity that you donât know how to cherish it and insist on courting death. If this is the case, I have no choice but to fulfill your wish and kill you all,â Leonard said coldly as he slowly clenched his fists.
