Lahat ng Kabanata ng Hidden Monarch: The Silent Resurgence: Kabanata 1601 - Kabanata 1610

Lydia was startled as she watched her parents get kicked to the ground, hitting the floor heavily. She took a step forward instinctively to check on them. However, she immediately stopped herself.They were hurt, but not fatally; at least their lives did not seem to be in immediate danger. She feared they would only insult her if she showed her concern.'Who are these people? And what kind of grudge did they have against her?' Lydia thought."Who are you guys?" Lydia demanded angrily."Have the Millers already forgotten the mess they created?" Jewell asked.Since Lydia looked confused, he said, "Let me remind you, then. Do you remember Keith Murry?"Lydia froze. She could not remember who Keith was.However, Henry immediately recognized the name.When Keith died, he had sworn that the martial arts experts in Islehaven would come for revenge. At the time, Henry had anticipated that someone would come for him soon, but when no one showed up, he gradually put the matter behind him

Jennifer finally understood that if Angus won, they would likely be dragged into his wrath and killed. However, if Henry won, they would surely be safe. As for her earlier behavior, she could always find an excuse to smooth things. After all, she had Lydia wrapped around her finger.She began silently praying for Henry to defeat Angus.Henry chuckled when he heard Angus' words and casually said, "What a coincidence. I didn't even use my full strength or even ten percent.""Don't be ridiculous!" Angus shouted angrily."Do you even realize who you're up against? I'm a peak-stage Grandmaster, while you are barely mid-stage. You wouldn't be able to withstand a full-force strike from me even with your full strength!"Henry, however, snorted coldly. "I'm done wasting words on you. Leave Aurelia now, and I'll spare your life!"Jewell saw his chance and quickly shouted. "How dare you speak to Master Bentley like that!"You not only harmed his disciple but continued to act so arrogantly.

After dealing with Angus, Henry took out a vial of corpse-dissolving powder and expertly applied it to the two bodies. Within moments, the corpses dissolved into mere puddles of liquid.He then glanced at Lydia, who remained composed. She had been somewhat prepared for that sight. Even though there was a hint of unease in her eyes, Lydia stayed calm, her gaze toward Henry soft and relaxed.When Henry noticed Lydia was fine, he turned his attention to William and Jennifer. The two visibly paled as Henry's gaze fell upon them.Having just witnessed him kill two people without hesitation, they were torn between relief that the danger was over and terror at how easily Henry had disposed of the bodies, clearly indicating he had done that many times before. The realization that Henry was a ruthless killer filled them with dread, especially given that moments earlier, they had tried to shift all responsibility onto him.As Henry looked their way, they became so terrified that they almost

William heard Jennifer's words and let out a bitter laugh, choosing to stay silent. At that point, especially after what had happened last time when Jennifer was in trouble, he had run around to seek help, but no one had even bothered to listen—except for Henry, who had returned to assist them. At that moment, William realized he and his wife had been wrong.That was why his recent words to Lydia had been heartfelt, unlike Jennifer, who had only been trying to curry favors. However, Jennifer had domineered over him over the years; he never dared to contradict her.After finishing her rant, Jennifer's eyes suddenly flashed with ruthlessness. "Since they didn't want me to have a good life, they shouldn't expect one either! I'm going to report them to the police. I'll expose their killings to the public.""Enough!" William snapped, losing his temper for the first time.Jennifer was taken aback. "What—what are you doing? Are you yelling at me?""What's wrong with that? Do you even rea

The masked elder did not seem to care about Lydia leaving. He did not attempt to stop her and sneered, "You managed to block 30 percent of my energy with one strike—impressive."But someone like you, who hasn't even begun to comprehend the Principles of Heaven and Earth, isn't a match for me."When the man finished speaking, he waved his right hand and sent out another strike. That one appeared even more casual.Yet, Henry could feel the immense danger within it. His face paled as he tried to dodge. However, he quickly felt like a massive force suppressed him.'Damn it! What is that?' he thought.He gritted his teeth and roared, summoning an Infinity Sword. He held the sword tightly in both hands while gathering his vital energy. The sword began to glow with an immense and terrifying light.He charged forward to meet the strike.Boom!A thunderous explosion sent shockwaves rippling through the air.Henry's body was racked with pain. His organs were severely injured and even sh
