Chapter 1175
She didn't expect Liam, whom she used to make fun of for his lack of martial skill, would become so agile after a
mere year. He managed to dodge three attacks from Quinton, who nearly struck his vitals at one point.
As Quinton tried to punch him straight in the chin, Liam turned and dodged it with ease. He got down and did a
sweep kick in a fraction of a second.
Quinton had great reflexes and immediately leaped into the air, attempting to grab Liam by the shoulder with his
big hands.
Even so, Liam's core strength was strong, and the attack didn't move him in the slightest. He then unleashed his
next attack right after.
The entire fight was tense and intriguing through and through, as the two were at a stalemate. This attracted a lot

"Great fight! Great fight!” The guests applauded and cheered loudly as if watching a professional match.
Renee, too, was in absolute shock during the entire process. Her eyes widened. "I can't believe it. I really can’t... Did
Liam secretly whale on his stats? How did he go from a noob to such a great fighter in such a short period of
time?!"
"Tsk tsk tsk, looks like Liam wasn't bluffing at all. He did encounter a master. Good thing he didn't embarrass himself
today!" Leia was calm the entire time, but this managed to make her raise her chin. For the first time, she found
her brother rather cool and dashing.
"A master?" Renee turned to the woman, visibly curious.
"Yeah, he encountered these thugs in Cyndiago about eight months ago while traveling. They were an underground
organization that intended to kidnap him as their prized possession. Maybe it was fate or luck, but Liam managed to
destroy the organization and saved a bunch of young teens who had been kidnapped as well. So the leader of the
thugs intended to kill him after that..."
"Really? Why did he never mention any of this to me?"
"He didn't want you to worry, so he specifically told me not to tell you."
"What then?"
"I guess it's because good people get good karma. My brother saved that group of young teens, right? One of the
young girl's godfathers is very powerful and has been looking for his missing goddaughter for a while."
"After he learned that my brother was in a difficult situation, he protected him all the way to the borders and taught
him many skills. That's why he’s so strong now."
Hearing this, Renee couldn't help but fall silent, mixed emotions welling up in her chest. It seemed she realized that
she wasn't the only one suffering in this world. Not long ago, while Liam was in a distant country, he wasn't quite

living his best life either.
The man had only ever given her good news instead of bad ones, which made her assume that he was still the
immature little kid who had never suffered the cruelty of this world.
"Ah!"
Suddenly, shouts could be heard coming from the crowd.
Renee turned around, only to find that her brother landed a kick on Liam while his mask was also removed.
"Why is this man's face... so scary?"
"I heard that he's the Night Demon. He really does look scarier than the devil!"
The guests seemed frightened, though their gossip and pointing toward Quinton did not cease. Some even instantly
pulled their phones out to record this scene as well.
"Get lost! Get lost!" Quinton was basically crawling to get his mask back on, his fingers trembling from rage.
He was once worshipped in the village due to his good looks, yet everyone was disgusted by his terrifying
appearance now. His tall ego took a hard dent from that.
Every time he faced such scrutiny, he couldn't help but feel his resentment towards Stefan grow.
