[Dragon Lord Imperial Residence, Darius Residence]Darius was naturally unaware of the impending danger to his life and went about his daily activities as usual.He performed the meditation techniques in the tattered book his grandfather gave him before practicing his martial arts.As he practiced his martial arts daily, Darius found out that he was getting increasingly stronger after every practice session.It was certainly strange, as Darius didn’t know the reason why he made such rapid improvements.Moreover, he also noticed that his progress was now stalling.When he first began practicing martial arts after the assassination attempt, his martial arts skills improved by leaps and bounds. However, his progress stalled nearly two months after the assassination attempt. It was as if he was at a bottleneck and needed something extra to break through.Of course, the reason why Darius’ martial arts skills improved greatly was because of the golden liquid his grandfather gave him when he
Darius couldn’t see the masked figure’s movement clearly, but he could feel a huge sense of crisis when the masked figure disappeared suddenly.When the masked figure reappeared in front of him, the sense of crisis he felt multiplied by tenfold.His instinct flared up at that moment, and he raised his hands to block the attack from the masked figureBoom!A loud sound instantly echoed in the room.Darius flew back greatly from the force of the hit and landed against the wall in the room. His hands were completely numb after the blocking the hit, and he could barely feel them.‘So strong!’ Darius thought inwardly.The attack from earlier was very strong and could have clearly rendered him incapacitated or worse if he didn’t manage to block it on time.Meanwhile, the masked figure was in complete shock.Prior to this attack, he had monitored Darius greatly and discovered that he had not yet awakened his Qi, so he wasn’t much of a threat to him.However what was this situation?Even thou
The two exchanged blows for a few more seconds before separating from each other. As they stood apart from each other, the aftermath of the blows was evident on their bodies.The masked figure black outfit was now torn in many places, and his body was riddled with injuries. The mask he wore hid his facial features from Darius completely, but there was blood on the corner of his lips.Darius himself wasn’t faring too well. Since he was alone at home, he had dressed in a single pair of shorts, and a casual shirt; therefore during the course of the fight, his clothing was unable to withstand the powerful blows, so they were just as ragged as the masked figure’s outfit.The masked figure looked at Darius warily. This current turn of events was far from what he expected, and it seemed like his original mission was now impossible to complete.His eyes gradually turned cold.Darius Reid had a lot of talent, so much that it was mind-blowing, and this was evident from the fact that he could go
Darius turned to face the motionless masked attacker on the floor. He felt a strong sense of power in his body. It was like a volcano on the verge of erupting.Darius had no idea that he had now taken that extra step and become a martial artist. He only knew he felt much stronger than he did during the fight with the masked figure.The entire world seemed clearer than before. It was as if he had previously viewed the world through filters, and even his concept of time had changed. Everything seemed to have slowed significantly.The masked figure, whose face was now exposed, glared at Darius with hatred in his eyes. Unfortunately, there was nothing he could do than to stay still.He had no idea that Darius would breakthrough during their fight, otherwise he would never have held back from the start.Moreover, Darius actually self healed several times during their fight. It was completely ridiculous!He sighed. There was no use thinking about it now. He lost, and Darius won. He was comp
Darius was both devastated and frustrated by the deaths of the police officers. He blamed himself for his slow response. He had no idea the assailant would be so insane as to try to kill everyone in the room as a last ditch effort. If he had, he would have done everything he could to save the police officers.Many people who were present when the explosion occurred rushed over to Darius' apartment seconds later. The explosion was too serious of an issue to ignore.They soon arrived at Darius' apartment. Meanwhile, several phone calls had already been made to the police department before they rushed over.When the police officers checked their records and saw that they had already dispatched two police officers to the specified location, they dispatched a large number of officers to his apartment this time.When the staff and visitors at Dragon Imperial Lord Residence arrived and saw Darius' room in such a sorry state, they all sucked in a cold breath.It was as if a battle had taken p
Meanwhile, while the mysterious persona was contemplating about what to do with Darius, Darius was in the police station.Darius was asked to repeat the details of the attack from the beginning by the police officers in charge of the investigation. Darius was understandably furious upon hearing that, and with good reason. After all, he was being asked to recount the details of the attack for the umpteenth time.Darius was frustrated, but he had no choice than to do so. If he didn’t follow the instructions of the police officers, they would never allow him to leave. S country was a nation that placed a high value on the rule of law and would always uphold it strictly.After Darius finished recounting the events, they requested specific personnel to conduct a quick scan of the deceased attacker's face. It took some time for the results to show, but when they did, it was just as Darius guessed.The attacker was definitely not a citizen of S country because none of his information was rec
The ride back to the Reid mansion was smooth and uneventful. Both Bruce and Darius remained silent for the entirety of the journey. The reason was because he had nothing to say to Darius, and moreover, he could see that Darius didn’t want to be disturbed at all; therefore he chose to remain quiet.Darius didn’t notice Bruce stealing occasional glances at him. He was far too deep in his thoughts at the moment.The assailant that attacked him was not a citizen of S country; so did this mean that his enemy was a foreigner? And if the enemy was actually a foreigner, how then was he able to spread his roots in S country?Furthermore, the motive behind the attack was still unknown by Darius. His grandfather had only warned him about his safety prior to the attack, but didn’t mention anything about the motive behind their attack.He found it hard to believe that anyone would go ahead and try to hurt him brazenly despite his identity as the heir and current head of the Reid consortium, but hi
The following morning, Darius awoke later than usual. This was anticipated because of his extreme exhaustion from the previous day's events. He noticed that it was already 11 am when he looked at the time.He got out of bed and drank a bottle of water before going about his morning routine. Darius had no idea he had become a martial artist, so he meditated before practicing his usual martial arts moves, as instructed in the tattered book.Unbeknownst to him, those martial arts moves were no longer appropriate for him. They were only useful when he wasn't a fully developed martial artist. He needed to alter his martial arts techniques now that he was a fully awakened martial artist because otherwise, he would make little to no progress at all.He finished his morning routine a few minutes later. He stripped naked; exposing his ridiculously toned body, and went into the bathroom for a quick shower. After he finished showering, he changed into some casual clothing before leaving his room
