Scarlet nodded. "Seamus has plenty of adopted sons and daughters. Losing one or two won't bother him. I'll handle it personally. If they put up a fight, we're not afraid to go to war."She never accepted Anders to be called the God of War. If there were an opportunity, she'd be more than willing to have a showdown to prove who was truly stronger."And those two big-shot families, the Welch and Forrest families, acting all high and mighty. They really need a reality check," Dustin remarked casually."That's easy. Just dig up their family's dark history, expose them, and send them to prison. No need for elaborate plans," she replied.For the Spanner family, it was easy to take down the Welch and Forrest family. There was no need for intricate schemes. A simple command could make them pay for what they had done.This stark difference between the great families and ancient houses showcased the hierarchy. Even though the great families were incredibly wealthy, their riches and status

The sudden, furious outburst left Elena in shock. Holding the phone, she looked bewildered and asked, "Dad, what's happening? Is something wrong back home?"Her father's voice roared from the other end, "You got the nerve to ask? It's all because of the mess you've stirred up!"Just now, the authorities sent in a bunch of troops. They not only locked down all our assets but also arrested most of our key members! "Now, the entire Forrest family is on the edge. If this keeps up, I might even end up behind bars!""What? How could this happen? Our family business is thriving, and we have extensive connections. Who could seize our family assets?" Elena widened her eyes in disbelief. The Forrest family business had been thriving. With the extensive network connections, any issues could usually be resolved easily. It never escalated into such a dire situation."What the heck have you done? Do you have any idea what's going on? Someone is dead set on putting you behind bars. "You t

Eleanor had never imagined that the Welch family would be in such dire straits. With her parents desperately fleeing for their lives and the family teetering on the precipice of bankruptcy, the once-mighty great family had crumbled overnight.This sudden and shocking downfall marked the end of her life of luxury and the days of carefree extravagance."Eleanor, is your family possibly going through a similar ordeal?" Elena cautiously asked."Just like you, authorities raided our home," Eleanor replied, her expression grim, beads of sweat forming on her forehead."My family is in trouble, and your family is being raided, too. Is this really just a coincidence?" Elena furrowed her brow.Overnight, two prominent families were targeted simultaneously. It was clearly a sabotage. But who could wield such immense power? "Looks like someone from the four ancient houses is pulling the strings." Eleanor mused."Are you suggesting ... the Spanner family?" Elena quickly made the connectio

"A chance? How?" Elena perked up instantly. With disaster looming for both their families, who else could save them? "The Spanners may be powerful, but they don't have absolute control. Also, the Moseys are still the most powerful among the four ancient houses."Eleanor said seriously, "Don't forget that Dustin killed Scott. Even if the Spanners back him up, the Moseys won't just let him get away with it. "That is why we can work with the Moseys to turn the tables on Dustin. We won't only protect ourselves that way, but we can also exact revenge. It'll be a win-win situation!""You're right, that's a great idea!" Elena lit up. Why hadn't she thought of it earlier? Despite pressure from the Spanners, there might still be a chance for them with the Moseys' support. "Eleanor, I'll call Dahlia immediately and ask her to find a way to help us through this crisis." Elena picked up her phone and was about to make the call when Eleanor stopped her. "Wait! Calling Dahlia may not h

"Don't worry, I won't die for now. Considering the gravity of the situation, I won't be able to rest well anyway. If I visit while in a wheelchair, I'll also appear more sincere," Elena said. "Alright then, let's pay a visit to Jadeleaf Manor." Eleanor didn't delay and quickly had someone bring a wheelchair over. After helping Elena into it, they got in the car and headed straight for Jadeleaf Manor. … It was late at night. Anders was at Jadeleaf Manor. He was in his study, poring over some documents in his hands with a serious expression.Ever since Dustin created a scene at Jadeleaf Manor earlier in the day, he had mobilized all available resources to investigate him secretly.After several hours of effort, he finally got his hands on some information. It was revealed that Dustin was originally from Swinton and had a prior marriage with Dahlia. Initially, Dustin was just an ordinary individual with a basic knowledge of medicine. However, after his divorce, he transformed

"Logan Rhys?" The confidant's eyes widened in disbelief. "That's impossible. Wasn't he reported dead?""He just disappeared. That doesn't necessarily mean he's dead. At least we haven't found a complete body so far," Anders said solemnly. Ten years ago, the chaos happened suddenly and ended abruptly. After that night, Logan, who had all eyes on him, mysteriously disappeared. The only thing the authorities found was a charred body that they suspected to be him. However, the body was so badly burnt that it was impossible to identify. Due to the official announcement, many people came to believe that the body was indeed his. Only the sharp individuals were skeptical, as there were inconsistencies and uncertainties surrounding this issue. However, people gradually accepted this outcome as time passed without any news of Logan. It only came to his mind because he found a striking resemblance between Dustin and Logan. Not only were they both young and exceptionally talented,

"My Lord, they claim that they can help you deal with Scott's murderer and hope that you'll meet them," the guard said. "Oh, is that so?" Anders raised an eyebrow. After considering it briefly, he nodded. "Very well, let them in.""Understood." the guard acknowledged and promptly left.Soon, Eleanor and Elena were brought into the room. Eleanor appeared relatively fine, only her cheeks were slightly red. On the other hand, Elena appeared pale and disheveled. She struggled to move in her wheelchair and coughed occasionally. She looked especially weak. "Greetings, Sir Anders!" Eleanor bowed immediately upon seeing Anders. Elena struggled to get up from her wheelchair but was stopped by Anders. "All right, that's unnecessary. Please, both of you, straighten up.""Thank you, Sir Anders." Eleanor stood up straight and lowered her gaze, maintaining a respectful demeanor.Elena, on the other hand, couldn't help but steal glances at Anders from time to time, her heart racing. H

The night passed quickly.The next morning, Dustin suddenly received a phone call from Eleanor."Hello, Dustin. We'd like to talk with you. Can we meet?" Eleanor sounded gentle. "There's nothing for us to talk about. You can only blame yourselves for everything that happened," Dustin replied coldly."Dustin, I know I was wrong. I'm very regretful of my decisions. Please give me a chance to make amends." Eleanor pleaded. "Give you a chance? What about Lana? She didn't do anything wrong, but because of you, she's dead. Did you ever give her a chance?" Dustin remained unfazed."You've misunderstood the situation. Lana's death has nothing to do with us. I swear that I knew nothing about it at first," Eleanor spoke earnestly."Did you think I would believe you? You and Scott are birds of a feather," Dustin said coldly.Dustin had already experienced her cunning and selfish nature and how she never meant what she said. She would never have softened her stance if she hadn't been pu

"Since Madam Penelope has spoken, I’ll follow her lead," Alloy said with a smile. "What about Mr. Hadley and Sage Foyer?""I'm in if you want to make a bet," Cyrus replied coolly."It's not every day we get an opportunity like this. Let me stir things up a bit." Kaden nodded with a grin.Once the three had agreed, Penelope waved for Abigail to come over.Soon, Abigail approached them with a wide grin. "Esteemed guests, I hear you want to bet. The current odds are—bet on Dustin to win, and you'll get 1.6 times your stake. Bet on Glenn, and it's only 0.4."She continued, "And no worries—if you win, I'll exchange your winnings for celestial stones." Abigail smiled brightly, and the other parties' eyes gleamed with the unmistakable shine of greed.Many had already placed their bets with her. Though she couldn't control the match's outcome, she knew how to adjust the odds to her advantage. Over time, that could turn into a huge fortune."I'm betting on Glenn to win." Cyrus quickly

"We're ready for the ultimate showdown of this tournament. The winner will be crowned the Combat Tournament Champion. Now, let's welcome both contestants to the ring." Oron's voice thundered as he stepped onto the battle ring.There was thunderous applause and cheers from the audience.The long-awaited showdown was finally at hand. Today's outcome wasn't just about personal glory, but it would also decide the future of the martial world.If Glenn triumphed and claimed the crown, the Sword Union would rise as the undisputed guild. The Celestial Alliance and the Mystic Arts Order would have no choice but to bow to their supremacy.But if Dustin won, it would be even more sensational. A dark horse, without any guild affiliation, defeating the elite disciples of the major guild—such a story would send shockwaves through the martial world.Once that happened, every major guild would fight tooth and nail to claim him. It would spark a fierce battle for dominance."Dr. Rhys! Good luck!"

"H-Hold on! I-I surrender!" Abigail said urgently. With the sword inches away from her throat, she decisively raised both hands in a gesture of surrender.She didn't expect herself to win the match. Her goal was simply to take this opportunity to test Dustin's strength and also gauge her own progress. But now, it was clear that there was still a sizable gap between them."You've done well. In a few more years, I might not even be able to keep up with you." Dustin smiled and lowered his Celestial Blade. His words weren't flattery; he genuinely saw potential in Abigail.The dark Phoenix flames carried a corrosive power that even his mystical pure energy couldn't resist. In other words, Abigail's black flames were the bane of any martial artist.Her journey in the martial world was still short—barely two years. She hadn't unlocked the full potential of her Phoenix bloodline yet. But with more training and experience, the sky was the limit for her."Don't try to console me, Sir. I'm n

With a resounding bang, the golden light erupted with a burst of terrifying energy wave. In an instant, the earth trembled, and fierce winds whipped through the air.Dustin and his sword were sent flying several yards. After landing, he stumbled back several steps before finally steadying himself.He looked up and saw that Abigail's body was now covered in a layer of golden armor, though he couldn't tell when it had happened. The armor glowed brightly, and it made her look imposing and striking.It was clearly a divine artifact.The Mystic Arts Order had been around for centuries, with deep roots and countless treasures. As the Grand Sorceress, Abigail would obviously have several divine artifacts for protection.Dustin wasn't surprised, but the armor's counterforce caught him off guard. Not only did it protect her, but it also had offensive capabilities.When his sword struck the armor earlier, the blow didn't leave a scratch. Instead, the armor absorbed the hit and sent the for

Dustin raised his hand as the black feathers rained down on him. A white energy shield flared into existence to form a wall before him.The feathers slammed into the shield and sent ripples across its surface but failed to break through. However, the black flames on the feathers spread across the shield and burned through its energy at a visible pace. In the blink of an eye, the once impenetrable barrier cracked open and left a gaping hole.Dustin couldn't hide his surprise. His mystical pure energy was far stronger than the average grandmaster's internal energy in offense and defense. It was meant to be impenetrable. He hadn't anticipated it couldn't hold up against Abigail's phoenix flame.Seeing the raw strength of her bloodline, he knew he couldn't afford to take any chances. As the black flames spread, he swiftly waved his hand to summon a furious gust of wind that sent the feathers and flames flying."Glaring Wings!" Abigail wasn't done yet. She quickly formed hand seals and

Abigail moved with lightning speed, and her figure weaved in and out like a shadow. Her swift movements left a blur of afterimages that was hard for anyone watching to keep up.On the contrary, Dustin stood still without making any movement."Fallen Fist!"After closing in, she unleashed a flurry of strikes—dozens of black palm shadows slamming toward his body, and each one was like a bullet aimed at its target.Abigail practiced a unique martial art, and it was imbued with voodoo-like properties that could kill anyone who made contact with her. But Dustin's body was immune to all poisons, so it was a perfect counter to her deadly attack.As the shadow palms closed in, he remained unshaken and thrust his palm forward.A fierce gust of wind surged and ripped through the air with unrelenting force. It collided with the black palm shadows.Abigail's black palm shadows exploded on impact and disintegrated into thick clouds of dark mist that quickly spread. Within moments, the mist e

The whole arena suddenly fell dead silent. Everyone stared blankly, and not a soul dared to breathe. Alloy shot to his feet in the main spectator seats, and his face was tense with worry. Yet, he didn't dare make a sound. He feared it might startle Glenn into making a mistake that could cost Fenley's life.After all, Fenley represented the future of the Celestial Alliance. Alloy had invested all his effort into Fenley, and he provided him with endless resources. If Fenley were to die in the match, it would deal a devastating blow to the entire guild.While Alloy was gripped with worry, Cyrus and Penelope cheered silently. They secretly hoped Glenn's sword would strike Fenley. If that happened, the Celestial Alliance would take at least a decade to regain its former glory.Fenley's body stiffened as he stared at the Fang Master hovering inches from him. A shiver ran through his spine as goosebumps prickled his skin. Sweat trickled down his face, and each drop hit the ground with a

"Glenn had only seven swords in the past. I didn't expect that in just one year, two more divine swords would recognize him as their master. This punk is much better than I was back then," Cyrus remarked. He stroked his chin with a look of surprise and approval. He had always believed in Glenn's potential, but Glenn's performance had still exceeded his expectations.After all, the more swords Glenn wielded, the stronger he became. He had already topped the Legendary List with just seven swords. Now, with nine, his strength had grown even more overwhelming."He truly is the Chosen One." Even Kaden couldn't help but sigh.The nine divine swords recognized their master and responded with ease. Glenn's talent and cultivation were leagues ahead of his peers.Every generation brought forth new talent, and the old had no choice but to step aside for the new generation. Compared to their time, today's youth were on another level—monsters in their own right."Now, this is going to be int

Compared to the second green sword, Glenn's third sword was even more powerful. As it descended, accompanied by the fury of a fire dragon, it carried the destructive force of a world-shattering storm.Fenley, whose energy flow was disrupted earlier, watched the fiery red long sword streak toward like a falling meteor. His heart raced and was gripped by a sudden sense of impending doom.With a roar, he risked the backlash effect and unleashed a powerful surge of internal energy. The ethereal divine spirit behind him instantly transformed into a figure with three heads and six arms. This was the complete form of the Four Elements of God's Technique.At that instant, he threw everything he had into the fight. He controlled the spirit to slam its giant arms into the flaming sword. With a loud explosion, the sword tore through the spirit's palms and continued its unyielding path toward Fenley. But its speed had slowed slightly.Without hesitation, he controlled the spirit to strike ag
