"Alright, you're the leader of the family. It's your decision." Natasha didn't voice much of her opinion. It was true that they shouldn't play their trump card, Michael Robinson, so easily. The best outcome would be to resolve the crisis and eliminate the Dark Lord of their own means so that not only will they still be in possession of their trump card, but it would also boost the entire family's morale."Mr. Harmon, I'm curious. What grudge the Dark Lord holds against the Harmon family?" Dustin suddenly questioned."Well …" Hector seemed to hesitate for a moment."Mr. Harmon, I asked because I'm curious. If you don't feel like telling me, don't stress about it." Dustin smiled. He knew better than to probe if it involved any of the family's secrets."Dad, there's no harm in spilling the truth. Dustin isn't an outsider," Natasha coaxed. She, too, didn't know much about the grievances between her family and the Dark Lord."Alright then, if you must know, I'll tell you." After some c

"The sole survivor?" Dustin and Natasha exchanged a look of surprise. It was truly astonishing to them that the Dark Lord was also a Harmon! And not only that, but one from the same ancestry! No wonder he knew so many of their secrets. "The three branches stemmed from the same ancestry, but due to the Dark Lord's selfishness, he went so far as to harm his kinsmen. How inhumane!" Natasha slammed her hand on the table out of frustration. She was even more irked after learning about the truth. She could have been more understanding if their current predicament had been caused by some deep grudge between both parties, but to think it was all because of a treasure map? The Dark Lord actually assassinated members of the Harmon family for so many years, all for a mere map? He was extremely deranged!"Men's greed is endless. The temptation of the treasure is immense, and the Dark Lord will never back off till he gets his hands on them," Hector said."One of the three branches has already d

As expected of the number one bombshell on the Beauty Ranking!"Maria Dunham, second disciple of the Invisible Guardians, at your service, Mr. Harmon!""Ivy Dennis, third disciple of the Invisible Guardians, at your service, Mr. Harmon!"The two girls in white also introduced themselves. "Alright, alright. You've all come at the right time. Come have some tea." Hector smiled gently, motioning for Jack to serve the tea and pastries."Mr. Harmon, we heard you're in trouble, so we're here on our master's orders to lend a hand. If you need anything, just let us know. We promise to help you handle it with ease!" Caleus said confidently. "The three of you must be exhausted from such a long journey. Please get some rest first. We can discuss this tomorrow. Oh, by the way, why haven't I seen your master?" Hector asked, changing the subject.Just three disciples from the Invincible Guardians were obviously not enough. It was best if a few elders or even the leader stepped in. "Don't

"Get lost!" Natasha's answer was simple and direct.The smile on Caelus' face froze. He had never thought she wouldn't even try to spare his feelings. After all, he was the senior disciple of the Invincible Guardians and a universally acknowledged martial arts genius. No matter where he went, people kissed the ground he walked on, and no one dared look down on him. But today, of all days, when he tried to ask for someone's hand in marriage, all he received in response was a simple "Get lost!" His reputation was going down the drain."Natasha, don't be rude!" Hector chastised. He then said regretfully, "Caelus, my daughter impulsively spoke out of turn. Please don't take it to heart."Caelus was the senior disciple of the Invincible Guardians, after all. He had to show him some form of respect. "Mr. Harmon, I consider myself a handsome and exceptionally talented man. I don't think it's a tall order to become your son-in-law. Now, I'm sincerely proposing to your daughter, and thi

"Please follow me." Jack bowed and escorted them out. "You got lucky today, punk. However, you won't be this lucky next time." Caelus shot Dustin a cold glare before leaving with the two young women. "Dad, why do I feel like you've invited wolves into our house?" Natasha said meaningfully."These are special circumstances. Let's put the interests of the whole above anything else. Now, we need the power of the Invincible Guardians, so let's not turn them against us," Hector reminded them."If he doesn't get on my nerves, there won't be a problem." Natasha arched an eyebrow."You …" Hector shook his head helplessly. "Enough. You two should head out. I still have things to attend to." The two nodded. They quickly said their goodbyes without saying much.After leaving the study, Natasha specially arranged a luxurious guest suite for Dustin, complete with a hot bath. To put it nicely, a private bodyguard would get special perks.Dustin wanted to turn it down at first, but he co

"A fight?" Upon hearing that, Hector got to his feet. "Is the Dark Lord here?""Perfect timing! Everyone, come with me to kill the enemy!" Dylan shouted with vigor."Kill!"The Harmon family members all slammed the table in front of them and hopped to their feet, aggression rolling off of them."You've got it wrong!" The Harmon family guard quickly explained, "It's not the Dark Lord; it's the martial artists we invited. They got into a conflict and are now fighting in the ballroom.""Huh?" When everyone heard that, they frowned. They had all thought that the great enemy had descended on them, but it turned out to be an internal fight amongst their own. All their excitement and vigor had been for nothing.What a waste of emotion."Come, let's go take a look!" Without another word, Hector led everyone out of the conference room. If internal conflicts were not handled properly, it could very likely end in greater disaster.At present, the Harmon family home's ballroom was filled

The muscular men at the back began to poke fun. All of them were behaving brazenly, leering at them."Ms. Natasha, why don't we leave for now? These people look difficult," Edmund advised quietly, shrinking into himself."Why are you panicking, Dad? This is the Harmons' home. What kind of trouble are they capable of kicking up here?" Abigail glared. She'd always looked down on her father's cowardly tendencies, always recoiling at the most minor things. Was he even a man?"You'd better get out of my sight while I'm not angry yet," Natasha said, her expression cold as ice. "Oh, you're pretty feisty! I like it." The bearded man rubbed his chin. "Unfortunately, beautiful, those two wusses next to you can't be your knights in shining armor." As he spoke, he glanced at Dustin and Edmund. One was a much younger man, and another was a wrinkled old geezer. They were nothing to fear. "Just me alone is enough to fight you!" Abigail said, slamming her palm into the table and jumping to her

"The White Stag Trio? Heh, you're nothing but clowns," the bearded man said disdainfully. He kicked the three of them and sent them flying. "Huh?" All the martial artists were shocked to see the three of them severely hurt and coughing up blood. Although they weren't exactly top dogs, they were still well-known in the martial world. Otherwise, the Harmons wouldn't have invited them.However, even with the three's combined forces, they couldn't withstand a few moves from the bearded man. It was far from anyone's expectation. This clearly proved how powerful he was."Just who are you?" The White Stag Trio were both surprised and afraid."Listen up, I am the Glenstead Hoodlum, Marlon Cobb!" the bearded man said arrogantly."Marlon the Hoodlum?!" Everyone was shocked to hear that, especially the White Stag Trio.Marlon was a divine-level martial artist. He was extremely well-reputed in Glenstead. Because of his strength and ruthlessness, he gained the nickname "Hoodlum." Peopl
