The Eight Heavenly Kings were left in a state of shock and disbelief as Charlie effortlessly defeated all seven of them with just a single palm strike!


    What kind of incredible power did he possess to demonstrate such overwhelming strength?


    Even the most skilled masters in the world could not hope to wield such formidable force!


    The Eight Heavenly Kings were not just any ordinary group. When theybined their powers, they created an extraordinary force together.


    Yet, despite theirbined might, they were no match for Charlie’s single punch and palm strike.<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">


    Duran, still reeling from the encounter, struggled to his feet and eximed, “Who are you? Where do youe from? Who is your master?”


    Charlie looked down at him with a smirk of disdain. “I am not beholden to anyone or anything; I am my own master. What? Are you doubting my strength?”


    Duran swallowed hard, anxiety creeping into his voice, “No, I believe! I fully recognize your power! Master Wade, you truly are the greatest martial artist in the world. As a fellow practitioner, you know how hard we’ve worked to achieve what we have. I hope you can find it in your heart to forgive us for our defeat. After all, admitting one’s mistakes is the first step towards redemption!”


    Charlie chuckled, clearly amused. “Why the rush for forgiveness? What’s the hurry?”


    Duran replied, “I realize I can’tpare to you, and I don’t want to make things worse. I’m simply asking for your mercy!”


    Charlie questioned, “Your only purpose here was to kill me. Now that you’ve failed, you plead for my mercy? Do you truly believe the world operates so easily? If I were to admit my inferiority and beg you for mercy, would you grant my request?”


    Duran’s face contorted with disdain. He understood that Charlie wouldn’t let him off the hook easily. Thus, he knelt down and pleaded, “Master Wade! If you show us mercy, I vow that we, The Eight Heavenly Kings, will be your loyal servants and obey your everymand!”


    With a smirk, Charlie locked eyes with him and replied, “Oh? So now you want to switch sides? How will you exin this to Lord Webb upon your return?”


    Duran spoke earnestly, “Only the finest bird perches upon the finest tree. Your unpredictable power is undeniable, so I am willing to abandon the darkness andmit myself to serve you faithfully!”


    Charlie regarded him with a neutral expression and made his way towards Duran and the others. No one could guess what was going through his mind.


    As he approached, Duran quickly urged hispanions, “Hurry! Kneel and pay homage to Master Wade!”


    At hismand, all members of The Eight Heavenly Kings turned, knelt, and bowed their heads before Charlie, even Hades, despite his crippled right arm.


    In that moment, Duran stealthily slipped his left hand into his sleeve and gripped a dagger tightly.


    The dagger was palm-sized and not particrly deadly, especially against someone as skillful as Charlie. However, it was special; it was coated with a potent poison and infused with a trace of radioactive powder.<fn37e5> ??? ????? ???????s ??? ?????s??? ?? fin?novel</fn37e5>


    This radioactive powder posed no threat when left untouched, but if it came into contact with a wound, it would cause inmmation and longsting erosion within the body.


    This was Duran’s most dangerous secret weapon, one he had kept hidden for decades.


    Aside from his brothers in The Eight Heavenly Kings, everyone who had witnessed this dagger was dead!


    Charlie had shattered Duran’s right arm, an affront that he could never forgive!


    Thus, kneeling before Charlie was out of the question!


    He had feigned submission, believing that at Charlie’s young age, he wouldn’t be wise enough to see through his act. Duran nned to deceive him and wait for the perfect moment to strike!


    He was just biding his time, looking for an opportunity to kill at first sight!
