The Pinnacle of Life Chapter 123

Keith Yowell had two sons, Xavier and Liam. However, Xavier and his wife passed away when Michelle Yowell was only three. That meant Keith was left with only one son. Fortunately, Liam was romantically successful. In and out of wedlock, Liam had over ten female partners in total, and as a result, bore quite a large number of children. His legal wife gave birth to three sons and two daughters, while his other female companions also gave birth to many children. All in all, Michelle had numerous brothers and sisters. The only thing Keith felt wrong about was that Liam’s children had mediocre talents in martial arts. Sean Yowell was the only one of the family who managed to get to Intermediate Royal, in no thanks to the endless supplies of resources from his family. Meanwhile, Xavier’s son, Colin, was the most talented among all the kids. At the age of 28, he had already reached Advanced Royal, and there was a good chance he would advance even further this year. Hence, Keith placed a lot of hope on Colin. In fact, he was secretly planning to hand over the Yowell family’s leadership role to Colin. Colin was the eldest grandson, whom Keith trusted the most. After hearing that the most talented grandson in the Yowell family was now critical thanks to his severe injuries, Keith started to panic. He was even more afraid of this happening than his own death. Hurriedly, he ran out of the house with the two disciples. James Coney and Dr. Cheryl were left slightly speechless, wondering just who had the guts to hurt someone from the Yowell family. “Based on his current health condition, Mr. Yowell shouldn’t get into a fight with anyone right now. If he does, his arteries might implode. Even God won’t be able to save him if that happens. I must go after him,” James said. Out of curiosity, Dr. Cheryl also followed them out. Liam was in a very foul mood. His father was in critical condition, and now, someone had to come to their house to cause trouble. Did people really think that the Yowell family was that easy to mess with? Liam immediately scavenged the house for a long sword from one of the rooms before charging out the door angrily. “Who dares to hurt my family? I’ll kill you!” Liam was at a slightly higher rank than Colin in martial arts. He was at the peak of Royal, just shy of reaching Mystic-rank. Unfortunately, he still wasn’t Mystic-ranked despite how close he was to it. Don Yowell, one of Liam’s sons, immediately ran up to him. “Dad, my third brother, got injured.” Don was talking about Sean Yowell, one of the brighter kids among Liam’s children. “What?” Liam was shocked. He quickly looked for Sean among the crowd. Finally, he found Sean, but with blood stains near his mouth and his chest. Liam immediately became enraged as he pointed his long sword at Alex Rockefeller, standing alone with his hands behind his back. Alex seemed to be enjoying the view of his surroundings. “You brat! You’ve gone too far. Do you think the Yowell family can be bullied? Kneel and die!” Liam screeched in a fury. Alex kept a cold gaze in his eyes while he scanned Liam briefly. A thought suddenly occurred to Alex, ‘This man has heart disease too. There has to be something wrong with the way the Yowell family practices martial arts. There has to be a serious flaw in their methods. Otherwise, this wouldn’t have happened.’ Although Alex had these thoughts running through his mind, he didn’t say them aloud. “Put your sword down. You can’t beat me,” Alex said. “Hmph. You’re too proud!” screeched Liam before attempting to strike Alex with his sword. Dr. Cheryl happened to have witnessed what happened while she ran out. She felt as if her heart would soon leap out of her chest. Her entire body froze in place. “No!!!” She screamed in terror. But her cries couldn’t stop Liam in time. Liam’s sword swiftly descended upon Alex.
