Chapter 1550
As Eric charged forward, the three men immediately broke formation. Though Eric was alone while they were three, it was commonly said that "two fists are no match for four hands," and they had six hands. But how would they fight?They underestimated Eric's speed. Edward was a tad slower, and Eric's fist struck his chest.With a loud "bang!" accompanied by a scream, Edward was sent flying, spitting out a mouthful of blood. One punch was all it took to incapacitate him."Edward!" Steven panicked at the sight of his brother coughing up blood.Pablo was equally shocked. Eric wasn't bluffing—his strength was undeniable. A single punch from him made a legend cough up blood. He was incredibly powerful!"Kill him!" Pablo shouted.Steven nodded, and the two of them attacked Eric from both sides, leaving no blind spots.Unwilling to clash head-on, Eric threw punches to either side, creating distance.Seeing this, Pablo laughed heartily. "Steven! He's nothing! He's just bluffing. If he we

Eric walked over to the chair and sat down, looking at Steven, "How strong are you? Tell me, how strong?"You Vanderbilts have three legends: you, Edward, and Alan. All of you have fallen at my hands. So, tell me, how strong is your family?"Steven remained silent. The reason powerful families were strong was that they had many legends, wasn't it? Below the legends, there were numerous masters. In terms of martial prowess, these families were maxed out. But now, in front of Eric, this so-called martial prowess was utterly useless!Two aristocratic families with six legends were subdued by Eric.Glancing at the few people around him, Eric said calmly, "I once went to Haevon and interacted with people from the Luminous. I thought there were no Luminous people in the country until I encountered the Pentra family in Westlake City."Larry, the legend of the Pentra family, was taken down by me, and the Pentra family was also wiped out because Larry was a member of the Luminous."Are
Chapter 1552
Martin initially thought that Eric would arrive alone and might need his help to escape from the Hernandez family. However, he didn't expect that with the Vanderbilt family present, there wouldn't be much of a commotion.Pablo and the two Vanderbilt legends were taken away, leaving many Hernandezes trembling in fear. These individuals were considered invincible, and their sudden capture was utterly shocking.As Pablo was taken away, several elderly figures with gray hair stepped forward. These elders held significant authority within the Hernandez family.They turned to Sylvia and said, "The Hernandez family cannot go a day without a family head. As our esteemed Nana, we ask you to appoint the next family head."These old men were quite stubborn. Some had supported Pablo, but now that he was gone and the Nana had reappeared, they naturally deferred to her.Sylvia was frightened by this request. She knew there were both good and bad people in the Hernandez family, as there were two

Martin knew Sylvia was likely going to distribute money.Sylvia indeed had that intention. Seeing the Hernandezes' sincerity and having brought nothing else, she decided that giving money was the best option.For many, receiving money was better than gifts because it allowed them to buy what they liked.Martin quickly reported the number of people to Sylvia.The Hernandez family had been around for a long time, and apart from the branch that had moved to King City, there were still five branches with over 300 people. For an established family, this population size was considerable, and it wasn't easy to sustain so many people.The reason was simple: if a branch had no male heirs, that branch would essentially disappear. When daughters married out, they became part of another family, and even their tombstones would bear the surname of their husband's family.For instance, when Sylvia passed away, her tombstone would start with "Sylvia Johnson" rather than "Sylvia Willaims".After

After an intense night, Sylvia leaned against Eric's chest. "Eric, why don't we go see him tomorrow? After all, he is your biological father, right?"We can't let people say that you don't even acknowledge your own father. Although there are reasons, we should still shut their mouths."Eric couldn't ignore his wife's suggestion and nodded. "Alright, we'll go see him tomorrow. After that, we should head back to Salt City."Eric never felt comfortable anywhere else. To him, only Salt City felt like home.-The following morning, Sylvia and Eric got up early, bought some simple gifts, and headed to the Hernandez residence.Seeing Eric and Sylvia arrive, Nera was surprised and delighted, yet somewhat at a loss. "Julius, h-he..." she stammered. "He’s already at work. I'll... I'll call him right away!"She knew exactly what Julius was thinking. Eric and Sylvia's sudden visit couldn't be without reason."Thank you." Sylvia smiled warmly, while Eric remained silent.Nera, equally exci

Just as Eric was about to get into the car, he suddenly stopped and said to Julius, "Can you act like a human being for once? The past is in the past and can't be changed. Why waste Ms. Calles' good years?"After saying that, Eric got into the car, leaving Sylvia utterly confused.Once they had driven some distance, Sylvia finally asked, "Why did you say those things?"Eric snorted coldly. "He's a bastard!"Sylvia was startled. "He's your biological father. How can you speak of him that way?""Biological father?" Eric retorted. "So what if he's my biological father? She's been married to him for years, and he's never even touched her. He's made her live like a widow all this time. Can you even call him a being human?"Sylvia fell silent. Indeed, making someone live like a widow for so many years was simply wrong.-At the gates of the Hernandez residence.Julius' face was livid with rage. Eric had the audacity to reprimand him? He dared to tell him to act like a human being?
Chapter 1556
Pierce marveled at the increasing number of legends being imprisoned in the Combat Department's facility. He had even undertaken significant renovations to prevent these legendary figures from escaping.Those suspected of being legends were temporarily classified as high-security prisoners, confined under the strictest conditions. The entire gate was made of cast iron, and surveillance cameras provided 24-hour coverage.If any legend attempted to escape or cause destruction, the system would immediately alert the authorities.For a legend, escaping from the Combat Department's prison was as difficult as reaching outer space.From Westlake City's Bryce to Pablo, Pedro, Steven, Alan, and Edward—this prison housed legends from three aristocratic families.It was a remarkable sight.Pierce felt that most of the domestic legends had been captured. Even if some remained, their number was unlikely to exceed ten.During this period, several legends had died, including Larry and a transc

Upon seeing the emblem on Pierce's wrist, Pablo was stunned and stared intently at Pierce. "Y-You too..."Pierce chuckled. "Shh, keep it down! We're all on the same side!"Pablo suddenly understood. No wonder Pierce said Pedro and the others were doing well here—it was because they were all allies!'Oh, Eric! You never saw this coming, did you?'Pablo felt an urge to laugh out loud but knew it would be inappropriate. If he accidentally exposed Pierce, it would be game over for everyone. However, this realization did bring him a sense of relief.Still, he was puzzled. "Since you're part of the Luminous, why ask me what I know? You should already know everything I know!""Not exactly." Pierce shook his head. "Members of the Luminous often don't interact with each other. For instance, I didn't know Pedro and Alan were fellow members until they arrived here. Only then did I learn that your two families and the Pentras are all part of the Luminous!"Pablo nodded repeatedly. That made
