Chapter 1438

Penulis: Marina Vittori
Greta's stubbornness was outrageous!

"Oh, we had some visitors!" At that moment, Bo walked in.

He strolled in casually and confidently. The female grandmaster, Elara, followed, her sharp eyes scanning the surroundings for potential threats.

"Bo, you're here?" Greta's expression softened upon seeing her younger brother.

"Greta, you haven't eaten yet, have you?" Bo said. "I've brought some food from Regal Court. You should try it out."

Bo took the container from Elara and placed various dishes on Greta's desk. It was a well-rounded meal, ranging from salads to steaks.

"Bo, you're a lifesaver. I've taught you well." Greta smiled, her previous concerns now brushed aside. She was genuinely thankful for her thoughtful brother.

"Greta, do these guests have any urgent business here?" Bo looked over at Ezra and Eleanor. He recognized them as fellow scions of well-off families, although they weren't exactly close friends.

"It's all business, but we haven't struck a deal yet," Greta expl

  • An Understated Dominance   Chapter 2703

    The area felt like a dead zone where the laws of reality itself had broken down. It was a place where even the natural order turned hostile.Cyprian, already weak and missing an arm, could no longer hold on. When the gravity suddenly doubled, his already weakened body could no longer maintain balance. Combined with the horrifying illusions constantly flashing through his mind, his foot slipped. He cried out as he fell toward the lake filled with spatial rifts."Cyprian!" Judith shouted, lunging to grab him, but a chaotic gust of warped air threw her back.Just as he was about to plunge into certain death, a figure in blue appeared beside him like a ghost.Dustin grabbed the back of Cyprian's collar with one hand. With the other, he formed a sword finger and traced several swift motions toward a seemingly calm area ahead that actually concealed densely packed spatial rifts.A low hum resonated as a strange ripple of energy spread outward. The twisted space seemed to flatten as if

    "Let's move. We shouldn't linger here," Dustin said. He took the lead, stepping onto the slippery and dilapidated path with steady strides.However, Grace could sense that the energy waves surrounding him had become even more restrained than before. It was as if he were accumulating strength to face whatever unknown challenges lay ahead.The group followed in silence, the atmosphere thick and suffocating. Rhydian and the other two guards gripped their weapons tightly. Their eyes scanned the churning crimson lake, alert for anything that might surge from the depths.Judith supported Cyprian, whose condition was worsening by the minute. The corrosive effects of the dragon blood malevolent energy were causing his remaining vital energy to drain away. His eyes were beginning to lose focus.As they ventured deeper, the surrounding scenery began to change in disturbing ways. The once clearly demarcated boundary between the deep blue lake waters and the corrupted crimson zone started to

    "You guys go first. Follow the stone path and don't stop," Dustin commanded in a low voice.Realizing that defense was no longer an option, he withdrew the disk of light and charged forward instead of retreating. His body shot ahead like a flash of cyan light toward the storm of light beams.His longsword sang as it left the sheath, a sharp, resonant note that cut through the roar. With a flick of his wrist, a torrent of sword light burst forth, forming a rippling cyan barrier in front of him.The beams struck the barrier in a deafening rhythm of metal and thunder, each impact exploding in blinding flashes.Most of the attacks shattered against the barrier, but a few slipped through. They slammed into the lake behind him, sending up columns of crimson water and cracking a section of the stone path underfoot.Rhydian and the others watched with their hearts in their throats, but none dared slow down. Bracing himself against the trembling ground, he shielded Grace, Judith, and Cypri

    The crimson lake, which had been stirring faintly, suddenly began to churn violently as if some colossal creature were awakening beneath the surface.In the next moment, monstrous tentacles, each as thick as a water barrel, emerged from the lake. They were formed from viscous blood and foul malevolent energy.With a sickening screech and a gale of coppery stench, the tendrils lashed out like a nest of giant serpents. They whipped and coiled from all directions, aiming to crush and entangle the group on the narrow path."Watch out!" Rhydian roared. He swung his blade at the crimson tentacle lunging for Grace. The blade collided with the tentacle, producing the sound of metal clashing against metal as sparks flew. The tentacle was incredibly resilient and contained powerful corrosive energy. The impact numbed his arm, and his blade was instantly covered with a layer of crimson filth, dimming its spiritual light.The two other guards also swung their blades to defend, but their at

    Dustin walked toward the altar, ignoring the intense dark energy emanating from it. He bent down to pick up the bronze waist token. His fingers traced the strange pattern etched into its surface, his eyes glinting with cold detachment."This wasn't done by a single group," he said. "Judging from the age of the bloodstains and the style of the items left behind, at least three different factions have performed blood rituals here over the past few decades."He then moved to a relatively intact corpse. After examining the bones, he noticed the man's sternum had turned an unnatural dark gold, covered in fine cracks."This individual's cultivation was not weak. He was at least in the Grandmaster realm when he was alive. But the cause of death… It seems like some force violently drained all his essence and soul. Even the spiritual essence in his bones was stripped away.""Were the blood rituals meant to communicate with the Void-Tyrant Dragon? Or to weaken it?" Grace asked with a frown.

    "Featheredge Deep…" Grace murmured, staring at the deceptively calm blue waters before her. Even light seemed faintly swallowed by its depths. She could sense the strange law-based power lurking within and frowned.The saying that feathers wouldn't float and birds couldn't fly was no exaggeration. Though her cultivation was strong, she doubted she could make a path on such uncanny waters for long.Dustin crouched at the edge. He gathered a strand of mystical pure energy at his fingertip and slowly dipped it into the water. His energy entered without stirring a single ripple. Instead, it sank into what felt like thick gel, each inch of progress growing harder. An invisible, erosive force rapidly ate away at that strand of energy."It does contain unique laws of sinking and dissolution," he said impassively, withdrawing his finger."Ordinary lightfoot techniques are useless here," he continued. "You'd need to form an isolation barrier with your own spiritual energy, or… Use a spe
