Chapter 401
“If we find out that the Energy Nurturing Pills you're selling don’t work, you’ll have no way but to end all this!”
Jacob sneered.
The Shears invited a crowd of powerful individuals and would be resented if their pills were not as effective as
they claimed. Should that happen, not only would Cynthion Group cto an end, the Shears’ reputation would
be on the ground as well.
“Whether the pills work or not is our business, and we don’t need you to worry about it!” Harvey said coldly. “Is
that so? Let's wait and see, then!” Jacob smirked viciously.
He did not believe that the pills could truly accelerate the progress of martial artists and since he decided that it

embarrass themselves.
Anson felt the sand was silently plotting to add fuel to the fire should the Shear siblings fail to fulfill the
guests’ expectations as revenge for what they did to him for Leon’s sake.
Harvey could not be bothered with Anson and Jacob and turned his attention to Iris and Leon. “Miss Young, Mister
Wolf, the opening ceremony will start soon. I'd like to invite you two to cut the ribbon. Will you do us the honor?”
“Um, sure.” Iris hesitated for a moment, before nodding.
The Elegante Group was partnered with the Shear Family and she saw no point in declining the honor of starting
the opening ceremony. What she was not aware of was that it was Leon whom Harvey wanted to invite on stage.
Iris and Leon followed Harvey and Cynthia onto the stage.
To test Cynthia’s capability, Benedict left all operational matters to Cynthia including details concerning the
opening ceremony, while he remained behind the scene without interfering. However, he arranged for Harvey
and a few other family members to assist Cynthia to avoid any troubles.
The ribbon-cutting ceremony proceeded smoothly on the stage, while a man below the stage glared ruthlessly at
Leon.
The man’s companion noticed the dark look on his face and asked, “Gordon, what's wrong?”
“Mister Fields, that’s the man who injuredin the ambush!” Gordon muttered resentfully.
“What? That's the brat that destroyed our plan?!” The other man gritted out.
The young man was none other but Theodore Fields, the eldest son of the Fields Family, one of the Four Major
Families.
The Fields Family and the Shear Family were competitors and Theodore sent his subordinate for an ambush to
capture Cynthia to strike a deal with the Shears, only for his plan to be destroyed by Leon.
Theodore was furious, to say the least.
“And here | thought I'd have to go through a lot of trouble to look for him! Mister Fields, we've finally found him.
We can’t just let him go!” Gordon gritted out.
He was too careless and regretted giving Leon the chance to injure him. If given the chance to fight Leon
again, he swore to tear Leon into pieces.
