There was no fancy wind-up; the punch came roaring in.
Leo finally sensed an unusual threat, a deathly oppression he had never encountered before.
Just as he was about to make a defense, the fist had already descended.
"Bang!"
A muffled sound, like a watermelon exploding.
Leo's head instantly shattered into pieces, and his massive body collapsed with a thunderous crash.
An instant of silence.
Then, screams and sounds of vomiting followed incessantly.
Fernando hurriedly embraced Abigail, shielding her from witnessing such a bloody scene.
"Brian!" Fernando scolded with a hint of anger.
"You idiot, can't you stop blowing up people's heads every time? It makes everything messy." Victor also wore a displeased expression. This guy always liked using this move, leaving the air filled with a pungent smell of blood.
"Uh... sorry, I'm used to it. How about I try a different move next time? What about the Black Tiger Gouging Heart?" Brian suggested, demonstrating on Owen's chest.
Owen was terrified and fell from his wheelchair and begged repeatedly, "Big, big brother, don't kill me, don't kill me. I'll give you money, I'll give you money!"
Brian, not buying it, flew into a rage and kicked Owen in the chest. "Do you think I'm a Hatchet Man?"
Victor smirked. Being a Peacekeeper for the Western Territory Nation wasn't a bad idea. He just wondered if the other party could handle this fool.
Owen was kicked dozens of meters away, crashing into the wall before coming to a stop.
"Puff!"
A large spray of blood mist erupted, and with closed eyes and a tilted neck, he breathed his last.
"Huh? He died just like that?" Brian was genuinely surprised. He knew how much force he had used, and that kick shouldn't have taken his life.
Little did he know that Owen had been kicked by Victor a few days earlier.
"Such a shame, I haven't practiced my Black Tiger Gouging Heart yet." Brian regretfully demonstrated again.
Peter had peacefully closed his eyes at some point, a smile lingering on his lips.
Having avenged his son, he now had the chance to reunite with him.
After burying Old Master Su, Fernando supported a fainting Abigail.
All the members of the Su family were present behind them.
Fernando turned around and scanned the crowd, loudly declaring, "You manage the Su family business as usual. Abigail will take over after graduating from college. If anyone harbors ill intentions, your fate will be like Owen's!"
The Su family members nodded vigorously.
Leo had his head exploded by this person's subordinate with a single punch. That person must be terrifying; they were not someone they could offend.
After sending Abigail back to the Su family and settling everything, Fernando, Victor, and Brian returned home.
Before they could get close, laughter from a girl echoed from inside the house.
"Ah!! My little princess, your Uncle Brian is here!" Brian rushed into the house in a few brisk steps.
"Who are you!?"
"Yaa!!"
Instantly, the startled cries of the mother and daughter were heard, along with what seemed like another person's voice.
Fernando sighed bitterly, thinking about when Brian would behave.
Seeing Fernando coming in, Zoey cried with teary eyes, "Daddy, Daddy, there's a rogue, a rogue!!"
"What? A rogue? Where? Don't worry, little princess, Uncle Brian is here." Brian comforted Zoey, holding her and looking around.
"You! It's you! Sob..." Zoey's little hands kept patting Brian's body, tears streaming down.
Brian was dumbfounded.
Seeing his daughter, Fernando's slight sorrow dissipated.
He lightly laughed and said to Zoey, "Zoey, don't be afraid. This is your Uncle Brian, Daddy's... Daddy's good friend."
Upon hearing her dad's words, Zoey stopped crying. However, seeing Brian's appearance, she still couldn't be sure. "Daddy, is what you said true? This... this Uncle Brian looks scary, and his beard is so prickly it hurts Zoey."
Only then did Brian notice that his stubbly beard had reddened Zoey's face.
"Oh, I'm sorry. It's all my fault." Brian quickly put down Zoey, looking self-reproachful.
Fernando picked up Zoey, gently kissed her forehead, and tenderly said, "Daddy wouldn't lie to Zoey. This is your Uncle Victor. They are all Daddy's good friends. Besides them, three more uncles are also Daddy's good friends. I'll let you meet them another day."
Victor, behaving unusually, fidgeted and didn't know how to respond, just smiling awkwardly.
"Wow, Daddy is amazing. He has so many friends!" Zoey clapped her hands, gradually displaying a sense of disappointment. She whispered, "Zoey doesn't even have one friend."
Fernando felt a pang of heartache. Zoey, at the age of six, should have been going to school, but due to health reasons, she couldn't joyfully walk into school with a schoolbag like normal kids.
"It's okay, Zoey. Tomorrow, Daddy will take you to school. Once you're in school, you'll have many good friends." Fernando reassured her.
"Really? Yay! I can finally go to school!" Zoey instantly cheered with joy.
Being able to go to school like other kids had always been Zoey's wish. Whenever she asked her mom, her mom would always answer, "Soon, soon."
"Little princess, can I be your friend?" Brian rubbed his hands awkwardly, making Victor's stomach churn. He resisted the urge to gag.
"Me?" Zoey blinked her adorable big eyes.
"Yes, I'm your dad's good friend, so naturally, I'm your friend too. I'm your best friend. As your friend, tell me what you want, and I can fulfill your wishes." Brian patted his chest.
Before coming, he wanted to prepare a gift for Zoey, but after much thought, he couldn't figure out what to give. Over the years, others had given him many things, but he had never given anything to anyone.
"You're lying. I want an airplane. Can you give me one? You're just bragging." Zoey said and then made a funny face at Brian.
In Zoey's heart, an airplane was the thing she wanted most over the years.
When she was younger, she would ask her mom where her dad was. Her mom would reply, "In a very, very faraway place, where cars and trains can't reach, only airplanes can go after flying for a long, long time."
At that time, Zoey didn't understand what her mom was talking about, but she knew that only an airplane could take her to where her dad was.
She dreamed of having her airplane because, with an airplane, she could go find her dad.
"Want an airplane? No problem!" Brian said, taking out a satellite phone and walking outside.
"Hurry up and bring my Black Hawk Helicopter over. Full speed ahead with maximum horsepower!"
Brian's roar echoed outside.
At this moment, Ella walked up to Fernando, tugged at his sleeve, and whispered, "Fernando, my parents are also here."
