Chapter 155: The Power of a Fist

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The short and bizarre old man was called John Hans, a highly competent henchman hired by the Hales for a high price. Over the years, he had protected Bruce and the Hales’ direct descendants on several occasions.

Moreover, before the Hales became the first-tier family they currently were, they had plenty of business rivals and competitors. But these people would somehow get into mishaps, get kidnapped, or be assassinated.

Those who were close to them all knew that these incidents were the doing of this short and hideous old man.

It could be said that without the secret help and support that Hans had provided the family with by resorting to unscrupulous means to attack their rivals, the Hales would have never become one of the four major families in Orange County.

He was an intimidating figure who made countless people of the older generation terrified!

The most frightening things about Hans were his unpredictable moves, lightning-like speed, excellent reflexes, and assassination techniques, which were his forte!

1

Rumor had it that after Hans gained a stable foothold in the Hale family, he stopped being involved with those illegal and sordid businesses. Throughout the decades that the Hales had been providing for him, he had never once attacked anyone.

Thus, the people of the younger generation had never heard of him.

But now that Hans had suddenly appeared in the middle of the hall, he was obviously out to attack Lucas. Clearly, Lucas had provoked the authority of the Hales, which was a major threat to them.

Many were guessing that Lucas probably wouldn’t be able to leave the Hale residence alive!

“Mr. Hans, I’ll leave this punk to you to handle.”

After Bruce issued this command, the short old man immediately moved and got on all four limbs like an animal. Hans glared daggers at Lucas with a bloodthirsty killing intent in his eyes.

He was extremely short in the first place, and his limbs became even shorter after he curled up into a ball. But he was very nimble. As soon as he stomped his feet against the ground, he instantly leaped up high and appeared right above Lucas!

His thin palm was like a sharp blade that slashed at Lucas’s head!

If his palm hit Lucas hard on the head, it would definitely do severe damage to his head. Even if it didn’t kill him, he would likely become mentally retarded.

Hans’s strike was as fast as lightning, so much so that the people in the hall could only see a black shadow flash. Before they knew it, his palm had already appeared above Lucas’s head. Ordinary people wouldn’t be able to react in time at all, as they would simply get smacked hard by his palm.

Unfortunately, Lucas wasn’t an ordinary person!

With a cold gaze in his eyes, Lucas swung his fist to meet Hans’s menacing palm.

Bang! With an explosion, his fist and Hans’s palm collided. No one knew exactly how Lucas managed to do so within milliseconds!

A tremendous and unparalleled force coursed through Hans’s palm all the way to his wrist, followed by his elbow and arm. In an instant, half of Hans’s body turned numb, as though a massive electric current had struck him. He was also sent flying by the overwhelming force that was impossible to resist!

Boom!

Hans’s body slammed against a large marble pillar at the back of the hall. With a loud crack, his spine shattered as he spat out a mouthful of blood that sent the black mask on his face flying away.

Hans’s face was covered in blood, and his body turned limp as he slid down the marble pillar, fell to the ground, and stopped moving.

It was dead silent.

The silence made everyone’s heart jump.

For a whole minute, no one dared to make a sound.

With just one punch, Lucas blasted away the Hales’ top henchman and sent him crashing into a marble pillar. The impact rendered him motionless and unable to fight anymore.

It was simply too terrifying!

In particular, those who knew how terrifying Hans was, as well as the guests of the older generation in the hall, all looked horrified. They almost couldn’t believe their eyes.

If not for the fact that Hans’s chest was still moving up and down faintly, the crowd would have thought that Lucas’s punch had killed him…

With just one punch, Lucas crippled the esteemed and mighty John Hans!

Bruce’s face twitched violently a few times, and he couldn’t hide the astonishment in his eyes. The mighty Mr. Hans, who had always been unbeatable, actually got defeated by a single punch from Lucas Gray!

Is it because Mr. Hans has aged, or is Lucas Gray too formidable…

Bruce suppressed the shock and vague uneasiness in his heart and waved his hand at the side.

In an instant, several Hales immediately called for security guards to lift the motionless Hans up from the ground and move him to a separate small building behind the hall. They then called several doctors to come and save him.

Meanwhile, Connor, whom Lucas had kicked away earlier, was also helped up. He then limped over.

Bruce kept his eyes fixed on Lucas as his expression turned unreadable. After a long while, he asked, “Young man, why did you come to the Hale residence today to cause trouble? Has the Hale family offended you in some way?”

Lucas’s actions were all offensive to the Hales, and anyone who wasn’t blind could tell that he was here to get back at the Hales.

Lucas suddenly laughed and asked, “Is Logan Hale a member of your family?”

Bruce frowned slightly. Of course, he wouldn’t be that naive as to think that Lucas suddenly mentioned Logan because he wanted to show that he was acquainted with the Hales. In the current situation, it seemed that it was likely that Logan had offended Lucas.

Bruce Hale nodded. “Yes, Logan Hale is my grandson. What’s wrong? Has he offended you in some way?”

Despite saying this, his tone was actually nonchalant.

Logan had always been average in competency and playful since he was a child, so no one treated him as a future successor of the Hale family.

Thus, Logan often got into trouble outside. His elders were all aware of it, but most of the time, they chose to turn a blind eye to it. In any case, the Hale family already had an extraordinary status in Orange County. Even if he created a huge mess, the Hales were definitely capable of cleaning it up.

Lucas asked again, “In that case, do you know that he imprisoned an innocent girl outside?”

Hearing this, Bruce had a look of epiphany. Then he sneered with sarcasm. “Does that girl have anything to do with you? Is that why you’re here to confront him? It’s just a woman. She should feel lucky that Logan has taken a fancy to her!

“Now that you’re here, are you trying to save her or ask us for compensation? Tell me, how much money do you want?”
