Chapter 167 Bar Encounter
Seeing Susan’s stubborn expression, Leones smiled helplessly.
Nowadays, he carried too much on his shoulders.
With more than a hundred masters, he also bore over a hundred grudges and favors.
Today, he could suppress the Soler family of Fatuma with the skills and reputation of his twenty–ninth master.
Then tomorrow, perhaps the enemies of his twenty–ninth master would come knocking at his door.
The world was dangerous, and people’s hearts were unpredictable.
Since things had started to involve those close to him, Leones regretted having acknowledged them and silently guarding them from behind.
“Let’s
- go. I’ll take you back first…”
Leones sent Susan back home safely.
Immediately afterward, Leones received another call from Darius.
Regarding the matter of the Martial Alliance in Sherland, he had already handled everything properly.
“We’ve taken down all five bases of the Martial Alliance, big and small, in Sherland.”
“Additionally, our Sherland Government has issued a statement indefinitely prohibiting the Martial Alliance worldwide from opening martial arts schools in Sherland.”
Since Leones accepted himself as a disciple, Darius was very concerned about this matter.
Due to Leones’s demands, there would no longer be an organization like the Martial Alliance in Sherland.
“Well, thank you for your hard work.” Leones nodded with satisfaction.
“It’s not hard work. It’s my honor to work for you, Master!” Darius said with gratitude.
Afterward, the two chatted for a while.
Darius continued to invite. “Master, are you free now? Would you like to come out and sit down? “I haven’t toasted you formally since you took me as your disciple. I’ve partnered with a friend to open a bar. If you’re free now, I can pick you up, and we can have a drink together. What do you say?”
“Okay.” Leones agreed.
Since the bar was nearby, Leones didn’t ask Darius to pick him up and went directly.
Blue Ocean Bar.
This bar was co–owned by Darius and some playboys in Sherland. It had gradually become a -gathering place for their circle. As it catered to top–tier playboys who spared no expense, the
business was exceptionally brisk.

As it catered to top–tier playboys who spared no expense, the business was exceptionally brisk. Leones stepped forward and walked in.
He glanced at the lively scene, but did not see Darius’s figure.
It seemed he was on his way.
Leones casually found a quiet place to sit down, and then ordered a glass of wine.
Just as his drink arrived, he heard a surprised but familiar voice behind him.
“Leones?
“How come you’re here!?”
Leones didn’t need to turn around to know that the person behind him was his half–brother, Timothy Bloom!
Simultaneously, Leones wondered the same. How come he ran into Timothy here?
It seemed that Timothy had also entered this circle.
“It’s really you!?”
At this time, Timothy walked up to him and took a closer look. Sure enough, he saw Leones holding a wine glass and looking calm and relaxed.
Recalling the unpleasant incident during their last encounter, where Leones dared to hit him and even attacked his mother, he couldn’t ignore the fact that Leones seemed to have killed his Uncle Lenny and Lenny’s men who had been protecting him.
Fresh grievances mixed with old grudges, Timothy’s face gradually became furious and fierce. “Why are you here!?” Timothy asked angrily again.
“Why can’t I be here?” Leones was too lazy to answer him, but Timothy kept asking, so he calmly replied, “You run this bar?”
“You!?” One sentence left Timothy speechless.
Did he even have the qualifications to own such a bar? Most of the patrons here were top–tier playboys in Yanjing, and over time, ordinary people realized that they couldn’t fit in, so they didn’t dare to come.
At this moment, Timothy’s entourage, who followed him, couldn’t help but ask with curiosity, “Mr. Bloom, who is this guy? Did you just call him ‘Timothy‘? Am I hearing it right?”
“Hmph!” Timothy snorted disdainfully, “He is the one I told you about, my brother who killed someone with his car and was imprisoned! He was just released last week!”
“Oh!” When these young men heard this, they all suddenly realized, “It turns out it’s him!” Immediately, the eyes of everyone looking at Leones began to become unkind, even full of contempt as Timothy had often spoken ill of his half–brother in their presence. Influenced by his words, his friends naturally didn’t regard Leones with any respect.
Moreover, according to Timothy, this half–brother of his was a disgrace to the family, kicked out of the family as soon as he was released from prison, and was stripped of everything.
He was nothing more than a former convict who had spent five years behind bars, then cast out of the family like a stray dog.
Everyone despised Leones even more.
“This bar is where the cream of the crop in Sherland often gathers,” one of the onlookers
remarked, “Does he really think he’s still the young master of the Bloom family? How dare he come to a place like this?
“He’s completely overestimating himself!”
Everyone jeered one after another, their words full of exclusion and ridicule.
Timothy also said coldly to Leones, “You have no qualifications to come to a place like this!”
Although this bar was open to the public, its regular clientele consisted mostly of elite heirs, and as time went by, ordinary folks gradually realized they couldn’t fit in and, as a result, didn’t dare to patronize the place.
Even Timothy himself, despite getting to know one of the bar’s investors, a top–tier figure in
feat. Sherland, only managed to mingle here in recent years, and it wasn’t an easy
But today, seeing Leones calmly and audaciously appearing here, Timothy felt a mix of anger and
amusement.
“Why don’t you take a look at your own reflection first?” he taunted. “What qualifications do you have to sit here?
“You lost dog!”
As Timothy began to confront Leones, more people gathered around, curious about the unfolding
situation.
After all, this was an established circle where people were highly prominent, and conflicts rarely occurred amongst them.
Upon hearing that the person seated there was a hit–and–run convict, the patrons‘ expressions toward Leones grew increasingly hostile. Some even started to demand that he be thrown out of there.
For a while, Leones became the target of public criticism.
Timothy gradually became proud and arrogant.
It seemed that his plan to humiliate Leones had worked perfectly.
He had expected Leones to leave in embarrassment.
However, to his surprise, Leones remained composed, as though the rumors and insults were directed at someone else entirely.
“You!?” Timothy was angry but helpless.
“Is that all?” Leones coldly retorted.
“Hmm?” Timothy hesitated for a moment, then smirked. “Considering you’re my half–brother, I’ve already shown you some respect. Aren’t you going to leave yet?”
“The one who should leave is you!” Without waiting for a response, Leones emptied the contents of his glass onto Timothy’s face, his voice cold. “Get lost!”
