Chapter 1 The Return Of The God Of War
In Erudia, a private jet landed at North Hampton Airport, where all international flights experienced an eight-hour delay because of it.

At the private passageway were five men in suits and leather shoes, standing as straight as a javelin.

Every now and then, they would raise their wrist to look at the time, for a big shot was coming to town.

The upper-class society of North Hampton had learned about his arrival, but no one had the capability to get an inch closer to the private passageway.

Even the richest man in North Hampton who came to pay homage was chased away.

Finally, there were movements coming from the passageway.

God of War!!! the mass cried out, their eyes filled with awe and veneration at the sight of the undefeatable legend of Erudia.

He, who was dubbed the God of War, was the one and only five-star war God in the history of Erudia.

Once, hed inflicted a crushing defeat on the strongest battalions in eighteen countries. He was an overbearing and formidable man.

He who overwhelmed the world with his unparalleled power had even created the Five Great Wars Regiment, Cavalry Regiment, and many more.

...

Setting foot on his homeland, Levi Garrison was overcome with emotions.

Once upon a time, he used to be an orphan who was abandoned on the streets of North Hampton and then adopted by the Garrison family.

However, the Garrison family had never been fond of him.

His adoptive parents, who had a tendency to beat and scold him, treated him like an outsider.

As for the outsiders, they treated him as a nobody.

But he didnt care a stiver. He had always been proud of his surname since he was a child, and he strived to bring glory to this family when he grew older.

At last, Levi had established Levi Group, the largest dark horse in North Hamptons business community.

With billions of assets, it ranked among the forefront of North Hampton, pushing the declining Garrison family to the top.

However, not only did the Garrison family showed no signs of appreciation, they even harbored dissatisfaction towards him. Jealous of his success, they regarded him as a thorn in their flesh and coveted Levi Group.

No matter his wealth and power, unless they were in control, he was just an outsider in the Garrison familys eyes.

Eventually, on Levis wedding night, the Garrison family plotted a frame-up against him by getting him drunk before tossing him onto his sister-in-laws bed. They wanted to create the illusion that he was doing something untoward to her and was caught in bed by his brother and adoptive parents.

That night, the Garrison family had brutally broken his limbs and left him on the road like a wild dog.

Not only was he handicapped, but he also had to take the flak for something he didnt commit.

From an upstart in the business world, he had become the target of disdain overnight.

And the next day, he had been punished for several crimes and sentenced to six years in prison.

He could never forget the ruthless and sinister faces of everyone in the Garrison family and the ridicule of his friends, classmates, and business partners.

More so, he could never forget the disappointment on his newly wedded wife, Zoeys face.

He had regarded the Garrison family as his home and devoted himself to the family.

Yet, they treated him like trash.

It felt as if a knife was being twisted in his heart every time he thought about this.

How he hated the Garrison family!

But who would have thought that Levi had been secretly transferred away from prison to join the military?

In a few years, he dominated the military world and became the one and only five-star God of War.

Now that he came back, the Garrison family ought to stay on their toes.

Hows it going, Azure Dragon? Levi asked.

Azure Dragon, the commander of the Five Great Wars Regiment, took a step forward and said respectfully, Sir, Im afraid your wife, Ms. Zoey Lopez will remarry at ten oclock tonight!

Ever since Zoeys husband was sent to prison on their wedding night, she had been living like a widow.

Only God knew how much pressure she was put under.

And right now, the person Levi couldnt wait to see the most was Zoey.

After a moment of hesitation, Azure Dragon continued, To add on, Sir, the Garrison family is holding a successful listing celebration banquet at the Crystal Palace Hotel tonight! Many people had invited the God of War just now, including the Garrison family, but I didnt accept nor refuse directly.

What time? Levi asked tersely.

Eight oclock, Sir.

Okay. Tell the Garrison family I will attend the banquet!

Since the time for the two events didnt clash, Levi gladly accepted the invitation.

The celebration banquet for the public listing of Garrison Group was held at North Hamptons Crystal Palace Hotel.

With the help of Levi Group, they had become a rich and powerful family in one fell swoop.

The hall was bustling with noise and excitement, and sounds of glasses clinking could be heard ringing in the air every now and then.

God bless the Garrison family, said Joseph, the head of the Garrison family. The younger generations are the stars among men. Garrison Group is now listed and has become an upstart in North Hampton!

Josephs three sons and daughter welcomed their guests with bright smiles on their faces.

The younger generation of the Garrison family was all the smugger and prouder because, after today, the Garrison family would become a powerful family, and they would become one of the top rich kids.

Most of the guests who attended todays banquet were from the top circle in North Hampton.

Garrison, do you know what happened today?! Your celebration party is nothing compared to that. They were gossiping about the major event that had happened today.

Yeah! I heard that a big shot has arrived in North Hampton!

The richest man in North Hampton wanted to meet him but was shooed away. Apparently, hes not qualified enough!

So? Jesse Nielsen had been waiting for five hours in advance at the airport!

Joseph nodded. Yes, I know about that too. I even sent someone to invite this big shot to the celebration party!

No way! Why would this big shot attend such a party?

No one believed it.

In fact, as an upstart, Joseph was just trying his luck.

Dad! shouted Jaycob, the second eldest son of the Garrison family could be seen running over. The big shot has accepted our invitation to attend our celebration banquet! Hes on the way!

Jesus! God has indeed blessed the Garrison family!

Everyone in the Garrison family could barely conceal their delight as this was their chance to reach the sky in a single bound.

The grandchildren of the Garrison family gathered together, sunshine flooding their souls.

Levis brother, Bryan, and sister-in-law, Victoria, smiled. Well, it all starts with Levis imprisonment that the Garrison family is at where we are today...

Right, speaking about Levi, do you guys know todays the day that kid gets out of prison?! somebody asked abruptly.

Really? Isnt that bad luck? Why did he have to be released on such a big day?!

Please, please, please dont come back! Hes the Garrison familys biggest disgrace!

Victorias lips tugged into a sneer. Speaking of which, Levi is the crowning glory of the Garrison familys status today.

Thats what hes supposed to do! Bryan said. He should contribute to the Garrison family for raising him, an orphan! His multi-billion Levi Group means nothing. To put it bluntly, hes just a dog raised by the Garrison family!

Someone gave a chortle. As a matter of fact, Ive been interested in Levis wife for a long time now. Shes still widowed, and Im so going to marry her!

The mans remark caused gales of laughter.

Everyone, stop what youre doing. I have an important announcement to make, Joseph said and went on to announce that the big shot was coming.

A thunderous applause was heard.

But when the applause had died down, there was still someone clapping.

The sound was loud and clear, approaching from afar.

On the red carpet, a man came clapping, looking bold and energetic.

His stride gave off a majestic and imposing aura, which made the mass hold their breaths.

Its Levi! Bryan and Victoria exclaimed.

Suddenly, all eyes were riveted on him.

I forgot this little brat got out of jail today! Levis adoptive parents spoke in unison.

Ignoring the astonished gazes darted at his way, Levi walked step by step towards Joseph.

A little bird told me that the company is now listed. How are you feeling, Joseph? Are you happy?

Levi flashed him a meaningful smile.

How dare you show up here, you insolent brat! And what did you just call me? Josephs fury sprang to life.

Who let him in? Didnt you know he just got out of prison? How inauspicious!

Bryan rose to his feet. What the hall are you doing here, Levi?

Levi sized him up. Why cant I be here?

Well, for starters, youre an orphan! The Garrison family has raised you, but you were ambitious and ungrateful. You had inordinate ambitions for your sister-in-law, and you wanted to take possession of the Garrison family! Youd even tried to kill your parents when things go south! Have you no conscience? Do you have any sense of morality left in your heart?

Youve lost your reputation in North Hampton, and everyone knows that. Have you no shame to have the brass neck to come round here?

Chapter 2 Sinner In The Family

Everyone knows why youre back. You want to leech off the Garrison family you want our money, isnt it?!

Youve long been expelled from the Garrison family, you ungrateful wretch! The Garrison family has nothing to do with you! Now, get lost!

Levis adoptive parents rose to their feet and pointed at his nose, hurling abusive remarks at him.

The Garrison familys brazenness of distorting the truth was mind-bending.

How disappointing!

He had thought they would feel somewhat apologetic after six years, but they were unexpectedly more aggravated.

They took everything from him, crippled him, and ruined his reputation, turning everything upside down and making everything his fault instead.

The Garrison family didnt have the slightest bit of compassion to speak of.

Bryan zipped towards Levi, assessing him condescendingly. Hmph! Dont you just want money now that youre back?

Flap!

Bryan threw a credit card to the ground and lifted his foot, shaking his leather shoe. My vamp is dirty. Lick it clean, and the one million in this card is yours!

His words elicited a fresh burst of laughter as the crowd looked at Levi as if they were looking at a dog.

Oh my! One million? Thats more than enough to cover his living expenses. I bet hell lick it!

Victoria gave a wry look.

On your knees! Bryan roared, seeing that Levi was glaring at him. Now, lick my shoe!

Levi stared at him coldly and held his peace.

Kneel!!!

Bryan rushed to Levi and pressed his shoulders, forcing him to kneel, but the latter didnt budge.

I said kneel!!!

Bryan struggled to rivet him to the spot.

Drop dead!

Levi suddenly slapped Bryan in the face, sending him flying almost eight meters away.

Silence engulfed the room one could even hear a pin drop!

Unbelievable!

Everyone in the Garrison family was stupefied.

What did Levi just do?

Did he just knock Bryan to the ground with a single slap?

Plod!

Bryan was about to get up when Levi stepped on him, crushed him, and crossed over him.

Looking at the approaching Levi, Joseph instinctively stepped back.

Levi went up the stage and adjusted the microphone stand.

Everyone looked at him, wondering what he was going to do next.

Listen up, everyone...

Im sure you remember what happened six years ago, yes? For the love and care I had received from the Garrison family during childhood, Im giving you one month to kneel before me for three days and three nights to repent your sins!

Remember, thats everyone from the Garrison family!

If I dont see any shadow within a month, the outcome is simpleI swear Ill wipe off every single one of you here today!

Levis voice was low and deep.

But as soon as he finished, the crowd was laughing like a drain.

Did prison life eat his brain or what? What conceited nonsense is he spouting?

The Garrison family right now is a juggernaut in North Hampton. Hes just a criminal. Isnt it a pipe dream to destroy the Garrison family?

Did he knock his brain loose or something?

...

Bear in mind that I have limited patience. You only have one month! Of course, you may gather your strengths and connections to fight against me! Ill be waiting.

Levi then took his leave straightaway, disregarding the mockeries of the crowd.

Stop right there, you basard! Did I tell you to leave?

Ben, Levis adoptive father, wanted to stop him.

Ben, let him go! Joseph said. Its a big day today. I dont want to see bloodshed!

He was afraid about the impact that would bring about if the big shot saw this.

Yeah! There are so much more opportunities to take care of him!

Hes in luck that the big shot is on his way!

With that, Levi left the place under the watchful eyes of hundreds of people.

After Levi had left, Joseph asked anxiously, Jaycob, wheres the big shot? Isnt he here yet?

Jaycob looked dazed. According to the time, he should have arrived long ago. Let me ask...

After making a phone call, Jaycob blanched. Dad, the big shot was here, but he left alread
y.

What? The big shot was here?

The big shot said that the Garrison family are a bunch of unworthy stupid pigs!

I get it. He must have left in a fit of rage after witnessing the ruckus that brat had created!

He must have thought that the Garrison family disrespected him!

Joseph trembled with rage. That brat will pay for this!

The multitude reacted accordingly.

Levi has ruined the Garrison familys glorious event!

He just pissed off the big shot!

Thats equivalent to cutting off the Garrison familys chance to reach the sky!

Levi Garrison is indeed the sinner of the Garrison family!

At that moment, the Garrison family wished to skin Levi alive.

His adoptive parents, brother, and sister-in-law especially hated him to the bone. Just you wait, Levi!

After leaving Crystal Palace Hotel, the next person that Levi was going to look for was his wife, Zoey Lopez.

In this life, he owed no debt to the Garrison family, nor his friends and classmates, but Zoey.

He had been imprisoned on the second day after the wedding, making Zoey lose her reputation. That even put her through six years of widowhood.

This woman has carried too much on her shoulders for six years.

But now that Im back, Ill hold your hand, and well conquer the world together!

After hesitating for a long time, Levi pressed the doorbell.

Thud!

The young woman dropped her mobile phone to the ground as the door opened.

Upon taking a closer look at Levis face, Zoey broke down in tears.

Zoey, quick, just get the parcel and come in. Its almost time for the family banquet! Your grandfather is going to settle your marriage at the family banquet tonight. You cant get away from this!

Yeah! Quickly get dressed! Your grandfather is going to set you up with someone else!

Zoeys parents voices sounded from the inside.

Zoey, Im back! Levi said excitedly, wanting to fling his arm around her, but Zoey slapped his hands away.

Why did you come back? Ive already forgotten about you...

Zoeys voice was choked with sobs.

Very soon after, Zoeys parents, Aaron and Caitlyn, came out, looking horrified.

How dare you have the nerve to come back? Do you know how much criticism my family has suffered because of you? Especially Zoey. Do you know how much she has suffered for the past six years? Zoeys father, Aaron, reproached.

Meanwhile, her mother, Caitlyn, pushed and shoved Levi. You should know that this relationship between you and Zoey is impossible in this life the moment you went to jail! Youre a criminal! Youre just a street rat in North Hampton! Youre only putting Zoey in harms way by coming to see her!

Naturally, Levi had known of Zoeys sufferings for the past six years, including her refusal to remarry because of him.

Levi put on a serious face. This time, Im back for good. I wont leave Zoey ever again. I will grant her a bright future and let her own the world!

Levis declaration had Aaron and Caitlyn hooting with laughter.

Youve spent six years in jail. How are you going to give Zoey a future? Aaron asked with a sneer.

Yeah! With your mouth? Caitlyn chimed in. Theres a limit to talking big!

Nonetheless, Levi smiled. Dont worry. Ill reclaim what I lost in those years! Ill destroy the Garrison family in a month!

Levi! This time, even Zoey couldnt bear to listen to his nonsense any longer. Can we be more realistic? It doesnt matter if you just get out of prison. Cant you just be down to earth and start anew? I believe that you will make a comeback one day, but you cant just indulge in tall talk. Do you know just how powerful the Garrison family is right now? And besides, todays era is a far cry from what it was six years ago!

Zoey, trust me, Levi said earnestly. I can make the Garrison family bow at my feet with just a word!

Chapter 3 Ten Billion To Sit At That Table
Preposterous!

Levis bravado nearly drove Zoey and her parents round the bend.

Having been caged up for six years, did he finally lose his mind?

Fine. If you say so, Zoey said, shoving her mobile phone to Levi directly. Then prove it! Id like to see how you make the Garrison family bow their heads with just one word!

I...

Levi was stunned.

It was true that he could exterminate the Garrison family with his words, but he had given them one month it would be too uneventful to destroy them now.

See, you cant do it, cant you? Then dont you ever talk big if you cant!

Zoey smashed the phone to the ground, marking her wrath.

Following that, her parents pushed Levi away. Go now. Youre not welcome here. Weve got a family banquet to attend!

No. Mom, Dad, let him in!

What do you mean, Zoey?

I wont remarry. My husband is back.

...

Aaron and Caitlyn couldnt talk her round, so they could only let him in.

After that, Zoey took Levi to her bedroom.

Since youre back, youre still my husband. I dont care about the gossips. Besides, I believe youre innocent, and anyone with discerning eyes can see that it was the Garrison family whod framed you!

Levi could feel the warmth in his heart.

She trusted him, and that was more than enough for him.

But you must promise me to start from zero and be down to earth. I believe you will achieve something great with your ability! Ill give you five years!

Thats unnecessary, Levi said. Just give me one month. In a month, Ill de

Shut up! I dont want to listen to your nonsensical and unrealistic talks! Why cant we just be realistic? Zoey shouted.

Even if you have nothing now, as long as you take one step at a time, I believe youll get back on your feet!

Levi shut up obediently.

I bought you these six years ago. Zoey took out a suit from the cupboard. Change into it at once and follow me to the family banquet!

Zoey, what is up with you?

Seeing Levi all dressed up, Aaron and Caitlyn were naturally dissatisfied.

Zoey clung onto Levis arm. Mom, Dad, Levi is my husband now! I will make myself clear to Grandpa tonight!

Aaron and Caitlyn looked daggers at Levi, sighing helplessly, For Heavens sake!

The Lopez family banquet was held at Golden Port Restaurant, where they contracted the entire restaurant.

Naturally, the Lopez family was not as powerful as the Garrison family, but they were considered above average in North Hampton.

When Zoey and her family arrived at the main hall, they were greeted with strange and jesting gazes.

In the past, when Zoey and Levi had gotten married, Aarons family status was the highest in the Lopez family.

But after Levis downfall, Aarons family had experienced a seismic shift in life, and their status in the Lopez family took a nosedive as they became the subject of ridicule, especially during family events.

Look! Is that Levi beside Zoey?

Yeah! Its really him! Hes released from prison already?

All eyes fell on Levi at once.

Harry, the head of the Lopez family, snorted and turned a blind eye to the four of them.

The old mans favorite now was Fabian, his eldest son, and his family.

Mainly because Fabians son-in-law, Samuel Robertson, was of mixed ethnicity who was born rich and had lived overseas.

This time, Harry was going to set up Zoey with Samuels younger brother, Chris, who had been casting covetous eyes on Zoey for some time now.

With no one paying attention to them, Aaron and his family could only find a place to sit first.

As they were about to take their seats, a voice was heard. No, Aaron. You guys cant sit here.

It was a reminder from Henry, the second eldest son of the Lopez family.

What?

There are sitting arrangements to the family banquet this time.

Aaron looked puzzled. How so?

There are four tables for the family banquet! And its decided according to the family contribution!

For example, the first table is given to the family who contributed over five million to the family in a year a million for the second table, a hundred thousand for the third table, and less than a hundred thousand for the last table, or should I say no contribution at all!

Henry smiled smugly. Our family has made good profits this year, and weve contributed just about five million to the family. So excuse me, but this table here is ours.

Of course, you can also sit at the first table without contributing. That is if your family has tens of millions of assets.

Unfortunately, we couldnt be any clearer about your familys situation, sneered Maddison, Henrys wife. Now that theres an ex-convict in your family, Im sorry that you guys can only sit at the last table!

Mom, Dad, as far as I know, Uncle Aaron and his family didnt contribute much to the family last year, said Shaun, Henrys son, walking over with a glass in his hand. Their company went bankrupt, and they even borrowed over two million from Grandpa. Clearly, its a negative contribution. Its unfair to the relatives sitting at the fourth table! I say we add a fifth table for negative contributors!

Yeah, I agree!

The rest of the Lopez family concurred.

Okay, well do as Shaun says! This shall motivate you people!

Harry gave his consent.

Hurry up and sit down. Dont just stand there and make a fool out of yourselves. Harry glared at Aaron.

With that, Aaron and his family walked over to the fifth table quietly.

Which table should a ten billion contributor sit at? asked Levi suddenly, pulling Zoeys arm.

Levi was the one and only five-star God of War, and wealth to him was just a number.

In fact, he didnt know exactly how much he had, but he could still fork out ten billion casually for the family contribution on behalf of Aarons family.

As soon as Levi said that, everyone was stunned at his query.

After a few moments of silence, the crowd blossomed into an enormous belly laugh.

Ten billion? You must be kidding me! Even the aristocratic Garrison family may not have that much money!

This kid must have a loose screw in the head to come here and embarrass himself!

Hey, Aaron. Did you know you have a son-in-law worth ten billion? Hahaha...

Sensing the jeering gazes and titter from the people around, Aaron and his family wished the ground could swallow them whole.

This is embarrassing!

Too embarrassing!

Zoeys temper sparked, and her eyes blazed with rage.

Levi Garrison, is it not enough for you to talk big at home that you have to come here and embarrass me? Do you think you havent done enough after all these years?

Zoey trembled as tears silently rolling down her cheeks.

But I do have ten billion! Levi said helplessly.

At this time, no one bothered to listen to Levis sheer bull because the star of the day, Fabians son-in-law, had arrived.

Everyone, including Harry, went out to the entrance to greet him.

Im sorry to keep everyone waiting. Samuel wore an apologetic expression.

Your flight was nearly ten hours late. Whats up with that? Harry asked in concern.

Samuel smiled. Grandpa, dont you know? A big shot has arrived in North Hampton, and North Hampton Airport was sealed off for eight hours.

What? Is there such a thing?

Whos this big shot to have the airport sealed off, Samuel? Harry asked smilingly.

Its not just that. Its said that a hundred planes escorted the private jet of that big shot, and there were a hundred thousand people guarding at the airport.

Damn!

What?

The crowd gasped in shock.

Hes the commander-in-chief of nine military regions, the God of War of Erudia. Haha, you may not believe it if I say this, but I met this great man when I was at a gathering abroad, and we even exchanged numbers. I didnt expect him to take up a post in North Hampton! Ill ask him out sometime in support of the Lopez family. That way, youll gain a foothold in North Hampton in no time, Samuel said loftily.

God! Thats incredible! How did you even get to know someone like him?

My brother-in-law is so cool!

The Lopez familys son-in-law is one of a kind! Of course, except for one!

Everyone looked at Samuel with veneration the old man was all the more impressed, Aaron and Caitlyn begrudged Fabians son-in-law, and Zoey was envious as well.

But she believed that in five years, Levi, too, could make her grandfather proud.

Yet, unbeknownst to them, Levi was actually barely stifling in his laughter.

This kid is quite something to know that Ive arrived.

But his ability to make up nonsense is even more impressive.

Youre saying you know the God of War? Levi asked.

Samuel raised his head. Yeah, we had a drink together. Is there a problem?

Levi chuckled. Then why dont I recognize you?
