Chapter 264

To other people, that word sounded like banal everyday speech.However, when the old man in the suit heard it, it shook him to his core.Bright red blood immediately oozed from his mouth and nose after an invisible wave of energy struck his eardrums.Before he recovered from his shock, another wave of energy hit him on the shoulder as if a mountain was pressing down on him.Despite his best efforts, he was unable to hold out for even a split second.Bang!A loud bang rang out.The elderly man in the suit slumped forward and knelt before Skylar.The old man had responded to Skylar’s command to kneel.Buzz!Everyone’s minds were racing.This elderly man appeared to have spent his entire life practicing martial arts. How could he have been so vulnerable in front of Skylar, unable to withstand even a single attack?He had wanted him to kneel, and he had made him kneel!Adam was extremely terrified, as were the men he had brought with him. They were both physically and mentally shaken.Others might not understand Stuart’s strength, but they were aware of it.Stuart’s family was said to have studied martial arts painstakingly for three generations, and the techniques passed down to him have reached their pinnacle.Regardless of his age, he took down dozens of brave and skilled mercenaries with his bare hands not long ago.Stuart was held in high regard, even by the wise patriarch of the Currey family.He was able to be with Adam at the Fox family’s house this time because he had been a guest at the Currey’s house and wished to repay the favor.A remarkable person of his stature, however, had been forced to kneel because Skylar demanded it.

I beg you to be merciful. Please forgive me this time!”“As long as you let him go, the Fox family will follow your lead from now on. We will do as you bid.”Malcolm believed that most people would be afraid to harm the Fox family because of his friendship with the Currey family patriarch.That was also why he had been spoiling Harper, allowing him to do evil outside.However, he never imagined that a boy who had appeared out of nowhere would be possessed by the power to level heaven and earth, overwhelming him and Adam to the point where they felt suffocated.Harper, out of survival instinct, knelt beside Malcolm and begged Skylar for mercy as he endured the severe pain in his arm. “Mr. Stone, I was wrong. I really know I was wrong!”“Please forgive me this time. Please forgive me this time…”“From now on, I will be your lapdog. I will do anything you ask of me!”
