Book:A King Reborn in Shadows Published:2024-6-4

The scar-faced man trembled and shouted loudly to his subordinates, “What are you waiting for? Beat him to death with your clubs! Attack!”
His henchmen exchanged glances and rushed forward, wielding their machetes and short sticks.
“Fool!” Rose saw this and slowly closed her eyes with hatred, saying, “Kevin, you are a useless bastard. You caused your own problems but let others die in Niarak for it. You’re not worthy of being called human!”
She didn’t have a good impression of Kevin to begin with, and now she was even more disappointed in him.
At the same time, she was sweating for this “reckless” man.
A couple of days ago, Scar-face showed up at her doorstep, demanding that she hand over the Dragon Bone Pill formula. He threatened to cut off her limbs if she didn’t comply.
One of Kevin’s old followers brought people to help, but his arm was broken by Scarface and he risked his life escorting Rose away from the scene.
Today Scarface came over with anger, and this person in front of her was provoking without knowing life or death. The outcome will definitely be worse than that of that man!
“Less than an ant!”
Flynn snorted coldly and suddenly moved his body, rushing into the crowd like a phantom in mid-air.
He had the strength to move mountains with his fists and feet. Even if he used only 30% of his power, hitting someone would either kill or maim them.
As for the machetes and steel pipes, under his extraordinary speed, not even a single strand of hair can be touched.
In less than a minute, within a radius of over twenty meters, there lay moaning people on the ground.
They clutched their injured limbs, screaming in agony, turning the scene into a hellish battleground with blood pooling on the ground.
One person, under the impact of Flynn’s attack, hung from an iron cable about seven to eight meters above the ground, with his chest caved in.
Two others had their bones completely shattered, rendering them beyond saving even if they were rushed to the hospital.
“He, he actually came out unscathed!”
A mournful cry came from somewhere. Rose suddenly opened her eyes and stared at Flynn, who stood with his hands behind his back, looking proud. She looked as if she had seen a ghost.
This seemingly ordinary man, who Kevin had “tricked” into coming to Niarak, turned out to be a skilled fighter?
One person fought against more than ten big men armed with weapons, and still won in the end!
Not only was there no harm to the hair, even breathing was as normal and steady as usual!
Amidst the incredulous and fearful gazes of the crowd, Flynn confidently approached Scarface and stepped on his face, asking in a deep voice, “What did you just say? You want to kill my entire family?”
The whole scene fell silent!
The scar-faced man cast a sidelong glance at Flynn, his face full of horror.
“I am working for the Swanson family. If you kill me, it will cause trouble for them and they will definitely chase after you to the ends of the earth!”
“Oh?” Flynn raised his eyebrows slightly and said coldly.
“I really want to see how the Swanson family will chase me to the ends of the earth after I kill you!” Flynn declared.
As he spoke, he slowly lifted his right foot, ready to stomp down, ensuring that Scar-face’s brain matter would undoubtedly spill all over the ground!
“Stop!” Rose shouted to prevent it, “He is Milo Barrett’s man. The Swanson family acquired the Alpha Pharmaceutical under the Sharp’s Group.”
“Milo is the manager and can talk to the Swanson family head!”
“If you kill him, Milo will use the Swanson family’s connections to chase you to the ends of the earth!”
“You don’t have to go that far, I don’t want to owe you any favors.”
“Sure enough, it’s a little rascal!” Flynn was somewhat disappointed.
After all that effort, Scarface wasn’t even worthy of being called a hair from the Swanson family’s dog!
“Then I’ll kill this trash first and let Milo come find me, so I don’t have to go find him!”
Flynn said, and his right foot was about to stomp down fiercely.
“Release him, or else I’ll kill her!”
One of the injured thugs, whom Rose had wounded, suddenly grabbed her by the neck, pressing the blade of a knife against her heart.
“Haha! Well done!” Scarface’s expression brightened and he ordered, “Get Rose down from the railing. If this man makes a move, kill her immediately!”
The henchman with a limp grabbed Rose by the neck and attempted to jump over the railing. However, the thug was severely weakened from blood loss. As he tried to clear the railing, his foot slipped and he pulled Rose down into the river with him!
There was a loud splash as a huge wave erupted, and both of them disappeared from sight. Flynn leaped into action and jumped into the river without hesitation.
The Shipmeda River was over ten meters deep, murky in color, and had strong undercurrents that could easily kill someone who wasn’t used to swimming in it – especially someone like Rose.
Flynn dove deep beneath its surface with his eyes closed as he felt around for any sign of them. It didn’t take long before he found an arm floating up towards him; it belonged to the henchman who had fallen straight to the bottom of the riverbed.
Without wasting any time, Flynn dived back down again in search of Rose. He swam like a fish through its currents until suddenly his hand brushed against something soft – an arm! He grabbed hold tightly before pulling her up towards him at lightning speed.
Once they reached shore safely, Flynn removed her mask only to furrow his brow deeply upon seeing her face…
This woman had a slender figure, but all the right curves were in all the right places. She stood over 5’7″ with delicate hands and a smooth face. Her lips were like cherry blossoms and her eyebrows like ink paintings. In terms of both physique and facial features, she could easily outshine any celebrity or supermodel – truly a rare beauty.
She was worthy of the title “Niarak’s number one beauty.” However, there was one thing that marred her otherwise perfect appearance: a twisted scar that snaked from the corner of Rose’s mouth to just below her ears, like an unsightly blemish on white jade.
“Judging by the way it looks,” Flynn said with a chill in his voice, “it seems intentional. What kind of hatred would drive someone to do something so depraved?”
Women care deeply about their appearance, especially at Rose’s age when even having a pimple can be cause for concern. What the killer did was worse than killing her outright – it was torture.
Rose had already swallowed too much water and lost consciousness. Flynn didn’t have time to think about anything else except saving her life.
He placed his hands on her chest and began compressions but each time he pushed down with force he felt his strength being absorbed by those two round mounds in front of him…
