Sherilyn grinned and said, "Mr. Haywood, your two apprentices really are extraordinary." Aidan let out a proud snort and replied with disdain, "I don't even need to step in. Keep watching-Tiana's defeat is only a matter of time. I told you already, that the Rhodes family is nothing more than a joke." Suddenly, a voice rang out from the crowd. "Attack low!" Tiana's heart jolted the second she heard it. Instead of retreating, she lunged forward, striking with both palms in a fierce assault. Following the mysterious tip, she immediately shifted her focus to Butch and Spike's lower stances.
In just seconds, their formation wobbled-only slightly, but enough. The crushing pressure on Tiana lifted, and she felt the change instantly.
Seizing the moment, she let out a sharp cry and shaped her fingers into claws, brutally gouging at their eyes. Two blood-curdling screams rang out in perfect sync.
Blood gushed from their eye sockets as both Butch and Spike went down, instantly blinded and completely incapacitated. Then, Tiana grabbed both by the legs and kicked them across the hall like trash.

Aidan's gaze darkened, his eyes sweeping the crowd like a hawk. Just now, someone seemed to have guided Tiana.
Who was it? Yet, even after scanning every face, he could not pinpoint the voice. A flicker of doubt crept in, and he wondered if he had imagined it.
Tiana, still catching her breath, backed up to Jameson's side.
"Are you alright, my love?" Jameson asked, scanning her up and down with concern.
Tiana gave a faint smile and shook her head. "I'm fine don't worry." She could not help but glance toward Andrew with a suspicious, almost impressed look.
That little punk's advice actually worked. How had he known the twin disciples' weak point was their lower stance? Though stunned, she did not dwell on it. In the end, she was still the one who stabilized the situation for the Rhodes family.
Butch and Spike crawled toward Aidan, trembling as they collapsed at his feet. "Sir, we've failed you..." Aidan's expression did not waver-not a shred of emotion on his face. He spat, "If you already know you're useless, then there's only one thing left to do—die." With that, he brought both hands down hard, smashing his palms onto the tops of their heads.
Aidan had mercilessly executed his own apprentices without hesitation, and the brutal display left the entire Rhodes family stunned and horrified.
Jameson shouted, voice burning with rage, "Mr. Haywood Senior, you're a monster! You just killed your own apprentices! You're not a man-you're a goddamn beast!" Aidan's face remained cold as he stated, "To a martial artist, the eyes are everything lose them, and your future is finished." Kenny quickly chimed in with flattery. "Mr. Haywood Senior, your ruthlessness is unmatched. No one else in the martial world could compare!" Aidan rolled his wrists, clearly warming up to make his own move. "Kenny, don't bother butteringup. My apprentices' death won't be in vain do you really think I'm footing the bill for this? I chere for your benefit, but all the damage I took? You and your daughter will pay for it." He did not attack just yet, though. Instead, he shot a meaningful glance at Kenny and Sherilyn, his expression dripping with amusement.

Kenny hurried to reply, "Mr. Haywood Senior, once I bechead of the Rhodes family, make sure every loss you suffered is repaid in full." Sherilyn chimed in, "And the Goldings will back you too. We won't short you a single cent, Mr. Haywood."
Aidan's gaze Snapped back to Tiana, his voice low and venomous. "Tiana, you worthless bitch. Now it's timed taught you a lesson. Don't worry won't kill you right away. I'll cripple you first. Then, in front of your entire family, I'll rape you before Lend your life!" Tiana's face twisted with shand fury. "You filthy mutt! Keep dreaming! You call yourself a martial arts master? You're nothing but scum!" Jameson growled, voice like ice. "If you want to touch my wife, you'll have to go throughfirst!" With a roar that shook the hall, Aidan launched himself forward, fists like iron boulders, crashing down on Tiana's chest.
Tiana clenched her teeth, already feeling breathless before the attack even landed.
The pressure was overwhelming the gap between them was a chasm. However, the Rhodes family was behind her.
There was no retreat.
She could only brace for impact and push forward.
At the stime, she shouted with m all her strength, "Andrew! If you've got even a shred of decency, if you still care about the Rhodes family, then get my daughter and my husband out of here-now!
