Alec’s gunmen laid their fingers on the trigger, ready to pull it. Just then, Harvey’s gaze casually swept over them. They froze, devastated and frightened, so much that they were unable to move their fingers. At that moment, Rachel took the opportunity to dash forward as fast as she could. Her speed was blinding.In the world of martial arts, speed defines the winner.Her attack seemed to have spanned across the world in an instant, attracting everyone’s attention.Slap!Her hard slap landed crisply on Alec’s face.The impact sent Alec flying in the air. His body fell and smashed onto the Mount Tai Stone at the further end of the hall entrance.Crimson gushed out of his nose and mouth like a gory waterfall, and his neck was twisted in a horrible fashion. No one could determine whether he was alive or dead…Rachel marched forward and trampled Alec’s head with her foot unhesitatingly.Her expression was calm and relaxed, as if she was simply stepping on a dying ant rather t
Trisha ignored the hundreds of people in the crowd and walked closer to Jaden.With each step, the temperature in the hall dropped by a few degrees. When she was about less than ten yards away from Jaden, the hall was as cold as winter.Several guards of the Smith family instinctively wanted to stop her, but before they managed to get close, daggers flew out and pierced their throats. They clutched their throats, shocked and appalled, before crumpling to the ground. Harvey frowned. He could see that the current Trisha was much stronger than when she was at the pier.She must have concealed her true prowess deliberately then.She was ranked one of the top three on the killer list. Seeing her skills right now, that was indeed a well-deserved reputation.Harvey took out his phone to send a message. He stopped Rachel before she was about to march forward and battle Trisha. He said to Trisha in a nonchalant tone, “Madame Cloude certainly deserves the praise. With such skills, even
“Rubbish!”Trisha’s expression could freeze even the North Pole. She waved her hand once more, and a ray of silver light shone between her fingers. They were pieces made of silver sand, and their shine instantly blinded the ten masters.A strange scent spread out and filled the air. It was highly potent and corrosive, and the guests subconsciously backed away in an attempt to avoid it. The ten masters pounced on Trisha, but the next moment, they froze. Their bodies convulsed, and all of a sudden, blood gushed out of their every pore. Within seconds, all of them crumbled and lay unconscious on the ground. They were the great masters as well as the true direct descendants of the Smith family, but none of them stood a chance against Trisha’s overpowering skills. Terrifying!Trisha’s strength could only be summed up with one word: terrifying.Harvey took a few steps back, his movement so subtle that no one took notice. He shielded Yvonne behind him, and narrowed his eyes at Tris
“You didn’t eat any?!”Trisha was astonished, but quickly regained her composure.“That’s fine too. Since you’re not crippled, I’ll do the honor of chopping your hands and feet with my own hands. The effect will be the same regardless.”Jaden smiled lightly. “I’m afraid getting my hands and feet won’t be as easy as you think.”“Let’s see. Do you think the gunmen you’re relying so heavily on are as obedient as you think?”So saying, Jaden snapped his fingers. As the crisp sound of his snapping fingers rang, the gunmen initially under Alec’s employ, who had aimed their firearms at the crowd, turned to aim at Trisha. In just one move, Trisha’s escape routes were all blocked. She had no way out.Trisha was shocked, and her expression turned for the worst. A moment of contemplation later, she sneered icily, “Nice one, Jaden! Great work, Terry!”“I didn’t expect you to join forces with your son and deceive me.”Jaden smiled, unperturbed. “I did set you up. The same can’t be said abou
Terry’s face changed suddenly and he shouted, “Old man, you’re shameless!”Trisha’s complexion changed as well. Her face, which was initially bitingly cold, turned pale.A wiser person could sense something was wrong based on the reactions of these two people.Jaden laughed. “There’s no point in arguing with me.”“Trisha. Your so-called revenge this time is not because of your hatred from twenty years ago, right?”“You’re actually here for this young man, right?”Listening to Jaden’s trivial words, Harvey and the rest understood.From the beginning to end, Jaden Smith was in control of everything.Whether it was the catastrophe faced by the Smith family, their life or death, as well as all of Terry’s previous actions…Everything was under Jaden’s control.Harvey himself was beginning to genuinely fear Jaden.Indeed, this old man deserved being the head of the top ten families.Ordinary people wouldn’t be able to fathom this old scamp’s thoughts and scheming.Trisha’s expre
“Trisha!”“No!”Terry was overwhelmed with shock and horror. He rushed out of his captors’ grasp like a madman, pouncing on Trisha’s still warm corpse. Jaden was faster and took a step forward before Terry could reach Trisha. With a loud bang, Jaden kicked Terry and trampled Terry on the ground under his foot, preventing Terry from moving. Everyone gasped, stunned. They expected Trisha would kill Jaden, but none of them imagined the opposite would happen. As it turned out, Jaden ended up killing the master assassin Trisha Cloude. He even followed up his actions by trampling his own son, Terry, with his foot.He was certainly a dark horse!His actions weren’t anything ordinary people could do.Harvey looked amused. This is the level of God of War!The head of the Smith family, Jaden Smith, was truly a master of the level of God of War.It seemed that Harvey had truly underestimated these top families.Benjamin, Chief Leonard Bray, and everyone else were astonished.
The crowd was shocked and dumbfounded.However, Harvey nonchalantly returned to his seat and continued eating indifferently.When he faced Grandma York, Melissa Leo before, he knew first hand how terrifying the heads of top families can be. But at the end of the day, the Yorks were simply an ordinary top family.They cannot compare to the Smiths, who were one of the top ten families. If Jaden weren’t competent, the Smiths would’ve long been devoured by their opponents. Jaden didn’t put on airs even after he had settled the messy conflict moments ago. Instead, he simply returned to the seat that originally belonged to him.After a few drinks, the banquet came to an end. Harvey was about to leave, but Jaden requested him to stay.Everyone else could see that Jaden had something to say to Harvey, Thus, they all left one by one.Jaden made a “please” gesture before Harvey could speak, and invited Harvey to follow him outside of the hall.A beautiful garden greeted Harvey’s sight
“The eldest son is devoted to the government and wants to use the government’s influence to protect the Smith family.”“The second son, unfortunately, is completely useless.”“The current Smith family looks the same right now, but what about ten years later?”Jaden sighed.Harvey suggested with a smile, “I think Lady Smith is a good choice. It’s possible for her to succeed the Smith family.”Jaden replied indifferently, “Yes, she’s quite good. I also think highly of Yvonne.”“Unfortunately, my optimism for them isn’t shared by other members of the family. They might not think highly of them, as I do.” “If there isn’t a man to support our huge family business, I’m afraid I won’t be at ease even after I die.”“Thus, Harvey, just like what I told you in the banquet before…”“I hold you in high esteem. If you’re willing to be the Smiths’ son-in-law…”“I can guarantee that everything you see now will be yours in ten years.”“You’ll be one of the top big shots in the great Countr
