"Max, you finally showed up!" Mila threw herself into Max's arms, her face full of grievance. "The tavern owner and two drunks teamed up to beat me up. Max, I told them I'm your woman, but they still dared to hit me. You have to get revenge for me today!" "s**t! Don't worry. Now that I'm here, it's all going to be sorted out!" Max's expression was full of rage. "If I don't make him bow and beg for mercy, I'll change my name to Fool!" "You guys, smash everything, smash it all, then set this place on fire!" Max's gang members rushed into the tavern like a swarm, destroying almost everything inside. "Stop, please stop!" Ali's eyes instantly reddened. "Ali, have some coffee. There's no need to rush.." Talon poured a cup of coffee for Ali. "I see your tavern is a bit old anyway. Let them smash it, and then we can build you a new one. Isn't that better?" "Build a new one? If they don't burn down my house, I'll be grateful!" Ali shook his head, watching the mess on the floor with a pained look in his eyes. "Did you offend Mila?" A gang member with a club approached Ali. "Damn, who doesn't know Mila and Max in Philadelphia? How dare you hit her! Now, you're coming with me to see Max!" Hearing this, Ali's knees buckled, nearly collapsing to the ground. Fortunately, Talon caught him just in time. "Let Max come and see me." At this moment, Azureblade's eyes narrowed sharply. ""Ha, you want Max to see you? What are you playing at?" "Crack!" Before the gang member could finish speaking, Azureblade suddenly kicked him in the knee, causing two loud cracks as the bones broke. The man uncontrollably fell to his knees. "Ah... my leg, my leg..." The gang member's forehead broke into cold sweat as he rolled and howled in pain. Eventually, he couldn't bear it anymore and fainted. "What!" The remaining gang members and Ali all stared in shock. Breaking someone's knee in one move? Was there such cruelty? Ali, being a bit older, saw that Azureblade didn't make any extra moves and efficiently broke the gang member's legs. He muttered, "You... are you retired military?" Talon smiled without answering. "I'm telling you again, let Max come and see me." For Azureblade, breaking a gang member's legs wasn't something to brag about. He shrugged his shoulders and spoke to the remaining people. "Ma... Max, something's wrong, Sid's been beaten up badly!" A gang member rushed to find Max in alarm. Max, who was about to set the tavern on fire, frowned upon hearing this. "What? Sid is crippled?" Hearing that Sid was crippled, Max was furious. He threw down the torch and stormed towards Talon. "Damn it, how dare they cripple Sid? I'll make them pay with their lives!" The subordinates gathered in a noisy manner. There was no time to burn the house, as they arrived fiercely in front of the three. "Max, it's him who beat Sid!" The gang member pointed at Azureblade, gritting his teeth. Max looked in the direction pointed by the gang member and, with just one glance, felt a chill down his spine, his whole body trembling. "Oh my God, isn't that Azureblade?" Back then, Corey was tortured to the point of wishing for death. How could this person be here? "Max, the one who hit me is him!" Mila, not understanding why Max was stunned, arrogantly said. "Brat, Max is here now. Didn't you want him to collect the corpse for me? Well, come on then. I'll stand right here and see if Max can really collect the corpse for me!" "Shut up, you b***h!" Max, feeling his scalp tingle, slapped Mila in the face, stunning her. After a long time, she couldn't regain her senses. Then, Max roared, "Apologize to Lord Azureblade!" What the hell? Did she hear that right? Max actually called this big guy "Lord" and demanded Mila apologize? Ali was also stunned, staring blankly at Max and then at Azureblade. This Azureblade was clearly Talon's bodyguard. If Azureblade was referred to as "Lord" by Max, then Talon must be... even more terrifying? Ali shivered all over, trembling as he stood up. "Max, what are you doing!?" Mila, still dazed from Max's slap, yelled. "I got beaten, and you're telling me to apologize? Aren't you still Max from the brotherhood?" Max was almost going mad upon hearing this. He angrily kicked Mila's head and then used his huge hand to slap Mila's face hard. "Damn it, whether I'm Max or not is none of your business. How dare you offend Lord Azureblade! I told you to shut your mouth, shut your mouth!" Slap, slap, slap... The continuous slapping sound was crisp and clear. At first, Mila understood what was happening, but later she only felt her head buzzing. Though still conscious, she no longer felt pain. The group of subordinates were dumbfounded. Was this really Max? How could he beat Mila so mercilessly? After finishing, Max quickly walked up to Azureblade, not daring to lift his head, and respectfully said, "Lord Azureblade, this is definitely a misunderstanding. This woman is one of my subordinates. I had her collect protection fees, but I never expected she would offend you here. Whether you want to kill or dismember her, you can say it. Max will never plead for her!" Seeing this, all the subordinates shivered with fear. "Max, do you still recognize me?" At this moment, Talon suddenly spoke. Azureblade swiftly moved aside. Max then saw Talon, who was drinking coffee at the table, and was instantly terrified. Collapsing to the ground, he quickly begged. "Mr. Storm, I really didn't know it was you. I just came to check after hearing this woman was beaten. I really didn't know it was you!" Then, Max saw his subordinates staring at him blankly and angrily said, "Damn it, do you all want to die? Hurry up and apologize, or no one can save you!" The subordinates immediately reacted, bowing in a row and begging Talon for forgiveness. Ali gasped. "Oh God, who exactly is this young man?" Even the notorious Max from the north of city was asking for mercy. He seemed as if he didn't care at all, as if Max wasn't even worth a dog in his eyes.
