The Understated Dragon Lord novel Chapter 174

Ryan didn't answer her question but counter-asked, “Are you Jessica?”

Of course, Jessica didn’t answer either, and instead continued to question, “Who exactly are you?”

Ryan shook the curved knife in his hand, confidently announcing himself, “Ryan!”

Jessica shook her head, “Never heard of you.”

Never heard of him? Ryan was taken aback by her response. He was Ryan, one of The 72 Martial Masters, recognized throughout the entire USA, ranking at thirty-eight!

This woman didn’t recognize him?

“The White Eyebrow Ryan!”

He repeated his title, emphasizing every word.

“Still doesn’t ring a bell,” she replied.

Jessica’s response left Ryan red-faced with anger. "I am The White Eyebrow Ryan, ranked thirty-eighth among the USA's The 72 Martial Masters!"

He had lived for years with respect from everyone he met, and now, this woman had snubbed him. Ryan couldn’t stand it. He felt the need to show Jessica just how well-known and powerful The White Eyebrow truly was.

Jessica, perplexed, turned to Daniel and asked, “These 72 Martial Masters, are they something to fuss over?”

"You..."

Jessica was fuming, and without realizing, her grip on his ear tightened further, causing him to yelp in pain.

"Sweetie, I was joking! Please, I made a mistake! That widow’s over fifty anyway. How about we visit my hometown someday, and I’ll introduce you?"

Hearing this, Jessica couldn’t help but chuckle, releasing him.

"If you dare to have designs on that widow, I'll twist those dog ears off for good!"
