Chapter 1 The Wolf King Returns, Investigating the Truth

"Boss, the Fred family on the South Coast has also chosen to submit. Now the entire American underground world is under our control!"

In an extremely luxuriously decorated villa, a strong-built young man with a fierce appearance was standing carefully in front of a white man with a gentle face, reporting respectfully.

After hearing the report, the white man nodded.

"Matthews, any results on that other matter I asked you to investigate?"

"Boss, we have results. You have no blood relation to the Reed family. Back then, you were sent to the Reed family by someone, but we haven't found out yet who sent you or why."

No relation at all?

After hearing Matthews' report, a look of "just as I thought" appeared on the white man's handsome face.

The man's name was Blake Reed, a member of the Reed family.

But from childhood to adulthood, Blake had never felt any warmth in the family. Instead, he had always been the target of everyone's hostility and mockery.

Even his parents, Carl Reed and Marina, had never treated him as real family.

Their attitudes toward him and his brother Brian Reed were completely different.

Five years ago, even though it was Brian who made the mistake, Blake's parents didn't hesitate to make him take responsibility.

At that time, Blake, thinking of his parents and brotherhood, didn't refuse.

He resolutely went to the underwater prison to take Brian's place and endure inhuman punishment.

When Blake first entered the prison, he still hoped his parents and family would visit, but as time passed, he gradually saw the truth.

In the Reed family, he had always been dispensable.

Whether he lived or died, nobody cared.

Completely disheartened, he felt life had no hope and prepared to end his life in prison.

It was then that Blake met his greatest benefactor—Williams Occam.

Occam was extremely displeased with Blake's suicidal intentions and stated that a real man should die charging forward, not waste away miserably in prison.

Blake scoffed at this and even physically attacked Occam.

But despite being young and strong, he was no match for even one of Occam's moves.

After this, Blake realized Occam's identity was unusual and became curious about him.

Occam didn't hide anything and honestly revealed his identity.

He was the head of America's largest criminal organization, the Mafia. He came to the underwater prison simply because he was tired of conflicts, wanted to clear his mind, and was looking for a suitable successor.

From the moment Blake entered, he had been observing him.

And he sensed an amazing Wolf King bloodline in Blake!

This bloodline was extremely rare in the world. Once the Wolf King bloodline was triggered, one could enter the Wolf King state, with strength surging dramatically, becoming unstoppable!

Wolves by nature are cold-blooded animals, needing constant battle and killing to awaken the bloodline within.

If Blake didn't want to die so miserably, he could take Occam's place in the Mafia, tempering his will through constant fighting and awakening his Wolf King bloodline!

Blake, who had felt life was hopeless, suddenly became full of hope for the future.

Especially learning he carried the Wolf King bloodline made Blake suspect there might be more to his identity.

Already prepared to die, he agreed without hesitation.

Occam then used his connections to get Blake out and had him start as a small boss in the Mafia.

At the same time, Occam told Blake a secret.

Once the Wolf King bloodline was triggered, it would become extremely bloodthirsty.

Sometimes, he might even lose his mind, not recognize his own family, and go on a killing spree!

To suppress this bloodline, he had to find a woman carrying another special bloodline and achieve balance through their union.

Or find out his true identity and use special family methods to suppress it!

Either of these methods would not only suppress the Wolf King bloodline but also make it purer.

The combat power it unleashed afterward would become even stronger!

After getting out, Blake quickly established himself within the Mafia through his crazy style of doing things.

Then he rose rapidly.

Not only did his bloodline fully awaken, making him the Mafia's top fighter.

He also completely inherited Occam's position, becoming the new head of the American Mafia.

Under his leadership, the Mafia rose all the way.

Now the entire American underground world was under his control.

Having achieved great success, Blake discovered his Wolf King bloodline was becoming more bloodthirsty.

He could still suppress it for a short time.

But in the long run, it might suddenly explode at any moment.

Over these years, he had never stopped searching for women with special bloodlines.

Unfortunately, such bloodlines were as rare as the Wolf King bloodline.

Even with his resources, he hadn't found a suitable candidate.

With no choice, Blake settled for second best and turned his attention to the mystery of his origins.

The information Matthews reported confirmed Blake's previous suspicions. It seemed there really was more to his identity.

Now it was exactly 5 years, the day Blake was officially released from prison.

Perhaps he could return to the Reed family now to explore the mystery of his origins and try to find a way to suppress his Wolf King bloodline as soon as possible.

...

At the same time, in Carl Reed's room at the European Reed family estate.

Carl and Marina both looked extremely upset.

"Brian, why can't you ever give us peace of mind?"

"Do you know who you've offended? That's the Gould family! They could crush our family like an ant with just a flick of their finger!"

Across from them, Brian hung his head, his expression full of fear.

"Dad, Mom, save me, I really know I was wrong!"

"I'm still young, I don't want to die! Please, you have to find a way to save me!"

Seeing Brian's panicked and helpless appearance, Carl and Marina's hearts ached!

They only had this one biological son, so they couldn't possibly watch him perish.

But the Gould family's attitude was very clear—their family had to send someone to apologize, or the entire Reed family would be destroyed.

However, this time, though they called it an apology, once someone went, it would certainly be a death sentence.

"Carl, do you remember Blake? He should be getting out of prison in the next couple of days!"

Suddenly, Marina's eyes lit up, and she said to Carl with delight.

Blake?

Carl thought for a moment, then his expression became much more excited.

"Right! We can have Blake go apologize!"

"Come on, let's go to the prison to pick up Blake!"

Just as the three were about to get up, an unexpected figure appeared in the room.

Seeing who it was, all three became even more excited.

Talk about perfect timing!

Blake, whom they wanted to take the blame, had come back on his own!
