No 1 Supreme Warrior novel Chapter 1

Emerdale Airport.

Leo got off the plane.

He looked tall in his black trench coat and his eyes were sharp and energetic. His only flaw was his abnormally pale complexion.

Out of nowhere, a black Rolls-Royce limousine stopped in front of him, with dozens of military trucks behind it.

"Fall in!"

Dozens of burly, grim-faced soldiers moved into two square-shaped formations, taking less than three seconds overall.

"Salute!"

Facing Leo, the soldiers shouted in unison, "Good day, Commander!"

Their loud and clear voices resonated throughout the vast airport.

Leo nodded calmly and saluted them in return.

At this time, the door of the Rolls-Royce opened and an alluring woman wearing tight black leather clothes and sunglasses stepped out.

She took off her sunglasses, revealing eyes so red that they seemed to be soaked in blood. Those eyes gave off a murderous feeling.

However, she was as docile as a sheep in front of Leo. This woman was called Nadine Moore. She was his shadow, his guard.

"Mr. Cohen, I've found her."

"Continue," Leo said, and waited quietly for her report.

"Her name is Lydia Henderson. She works at the International Trading Center Building. Her identity has been deliberately hidden, so this is all we have about her at the moment."

Nadine's expression turned grim as she carefully observed Leo's expression. Seeing no particular reaction from him, she felt relieved enough to continue her report.

"Phantom was in Emerdale a month ago but left the country and disappeared. Kate Lawson acquired the Fords' Vesper Corporation a week ago and became the new chairman of the board. End of report."

"Got it." Leo nodded, and then begun to cough.

He wiped his mouth and found some blood on his hand.

"Mr. Cohen, is it your old injury again?"

Nadine immediately pulled out a handkerchief, her beautiful eyes filled with concern.

Even though Leo managed to force his enemies into retreat in the battle on Elview Mountain, the ordeal left him with a persistent illness...

"It doesn't matter. Let's visit the Fords."

Leo waved his hand, clearly not as concerned as Nadine was, and walked toward the Rolls-Royce.

He did not speak anymore after getting in the car.

The scenery on both sides of the car swiftly fell back, and his mind drifted as well.

Five years ago, he agreed to marry Kate Lawson—the darling of Lawson family—and adopt her family name to repay his adoptive father, William Ford, and resolve the Fords' financial crisis.

Little did he know that it was all part of Kate's plot to steal the Fords' corporate secrets.

On his wedding day, he suffered inhumane abuse.

He was beaten, drugged, kidnapped, and finally thrown into the sea.

It was the sheer luck of fools that he didn't die that day. Not only did he escape death, but he even joined the mysterious special forces in Winbury, the Wyverns, later on.

Five years in the military had transformed him.

He became the God of War in the military, the Commander of the Wyverns, protecting Winbury and fending off enemies from all over the world.

He retired with honor, for it was time to settle the grudges of the past.

Furthermore, he could not forget the woman who he had once hurt so deeply.

Back then, he had been kidnapped to an abandoned warehouse at the pier. Beside him was also a woman who had suffered the same fate.

She was the one who had saved him. Unfortunately, he had been so delirious that he did not even know her name or appearance.

Nadine let out a quiet sigh when she saw the thoughtful and sorrowful look in Leo's eyes.

Compared to settling past grudges, he must be more concerned about the woman named Lydia Henderson.

"We're here, Mr. Cohen."

Nadine parked the car before a three-story antique villa by the street.

"Got it."

Leo nodded but did not exit the car immediately. Instead, he said to Nadine emotionlessly, "Keep investigating Miss Henderson. I want the results this evening."

"Yes."

Leo got off the car and stood outside the Fords' residence. He became lost in thought as he looked at the plants and trees in the yard.

Everything felt so familiar.

"I wonder how Caroline is doing..."

He seemed to see that young and vivacious girl in his memories in front of him, and a smile lit up his face.

Few could put such a pure smile on his face. Caroline was one of them.

Caroline was his adoptive father's daughter and they had grown up together. If not for Kate Lawson, they would probably be married by now.

He snapped out of his reverie and rang the doorbell.
