Among the four generals, the strong and muscular one called Mad Bull, strode forward and said in a deep voice, "The head of the Griffins from the East has arrived. All of the Smiths, come forward to kneel and beg for mercy. For those who resist, your fates will be similar to these two stone statues.”
To demonstrate, Mad Bull raised his right fist and slammed it against the head of one of the stone statues among the ruins before the gates leading to the Smiths' residence.
Boom!
The stone head that was as big as a millstone was smashed into pieces by a single punch from Mad Bull.
Mad Bull didn't stop there. He swept out his leg in a sharp kick, destroying another stone statue in the head.
Boom!
The head of the other stone statue crumbled into pieces as well.
Everyone in the Smith family blanched in horror. Their eyes widened, utterly shocked that this man had used his bare hands and feet to smash the stone statues' heads into little pieces.
Is he even human? This is just too terrifying!
When Damon saw the Smiths' horrified looks and trembling bodies, a contemptuous look appeared on his face.
Denise had previously been humiliated in front of Nathan and Penny. Now, seeing the Smiths shaking in fear made her exceptionally smug.
Holding onto Damon's arm, she sneered at Penny and her family, saying, "Hah! Do you finally know fear and despair? Well, you should've known it sooner. Weren't you Smiths always full of yourselves? Where's all that arrogance now, huh?"
Sean fearfully guided his family forward to greet them. He put down his ego and walked towards Damon and Denise. "Mr. and Mrs. Griffin, we Smiths own up to our mistakes." He cautiously apologized.
"We know that we're at fault. Please spare us and give us a chance. We are willing to compensate you for the loss the Griffins suffered, in any way possible.”
Denise raised her hand and slapped Sean across his face.
Smack!
