The nine Grandmasters...came at last.In the Saunders' living room, Blaine's body tensed, his eyes darting from the shattered gate to Roslyn's ghostly pale face. Despair washed over him.It was too late.The Saunders family had just caught wind of an impending attack by the three major families. Bef
He was there.Alexander!Roslyn's heart pounded at the crossroads of life and death, and her eyes flew open in disbelief.Barely two meters away, Alexander stood, his silhouette as unyielding as a mountain. With just two fingers, he effortlessly caught the descending blade, a veritable fortress that
No one knew Alexander's true strength.The enemy commander, slain by Alexander, remained oblivious. So did the dozen Lords of War who met their end at the hands of Alexander.Even the mighty Four Dukes of War of the Temple of War, renowned for their strength, remained clueless.All that was known wa
In the palm of Alexander's hand, the air compressed rapidly. Just over 10 meters ahead, the air around the nine Grandmasters mirrored that of Alexander's palm. It was as if nine air cages materialized out of thin air, tightly binding their bodies and forcefully suppressing the expanding momentum.Th
In the grand living room of the Redwine family, the air seemed to have frozen.Dallas' body swayed for a moment, almost collapsing on the spot. Wido, on the other hand, slumped to the ground, his lips trembling violently, unable to produce any sound. Gibson's vision darkened as he slowly tilted off
Frank's words echoed in Vince's ears and heart like a roaring thunder. The rise of the New Chesire Group, the death of Mister Hardy, and the demise of many forces—events in the past year in Ol' Mare unfolded like a rapidly spinning carousel.Hearing Frank's words, a glint quickly flashed before Vinc
Guided by two security guards, Frank stood at the doorway of the office on the top floor. He rubbed his knees that had gone sore from kneeling before cautiously pushing the door open.It felt like a nervous university graduate attending their first job interview."Mister Kane, Miss Chesire, I apolog
"There's something I haven't told you." Leaning against him, Alexander gazed into the distance, memories from the past resurfacing against his will. He said softly, "'The Girl Prodigy of the North'—have you heard of this title?"What?Amber's expression shifted in recognition and shock. Alexander wa
"Kill!" As Alexander stepped onto the Empyrean Slope, a monstrous wave of killing intent crashed into his mind."Hmph, you think you're the only one fierce?" he muttered coldly, unleashing his own killing intent to counter the assault.He was the Temple Lord Kane, a man who had tread through mountai
At Battleforge Summit, a place where peril lurked at every turn.As the group continued their ascent, they lost a few more members. The ancient battlefield was riddled with deadly traps and poisonous remnants. The pools along the way harbored creatures so aggressive, it was clear they were not of mo
"Ah…" Alexander yawned, waiting patiently. Without a proper map, he would probably take half a day searching for directions. Battleforge Summit, though seemingly small, had a complex terrain.Time was slipping away, and Maxwell and Crimson Wyrm Master finally reached an agreement. The two-meter-wide
Early in the next morning, Maxwell's group of 40—the weakest among them a Lord of War—gathered quietly by the lake at the back of a mountain, somewhere in Shielded Valley. They stood in silence, their expressions grave.Though many had never ventured to Battleforge Summit, they had all heard of its
"Enemy attack!"Brenda sprang to her feet, drawing her sharp blade. Tensions had been high lately, and everyone's nerves were on edge."Perfect timing! I've been waiting to kill him sooner or later!"Alexander's killing intent surged, and his battle spirit ignited.Crimson Wyrm Master was destined t
As soon as Alexander asked the question, a heavy silence fell over the chamber. The three Guardians exchanged uneasy glances, but no one uttered a word."Never mind if you don't want to say anything, I'm just curious," said Alexander, sitting down cross-legged and closing his eyes to heal his wounds
"As you wish!"Crimson Wyrm Master channeled a furious surge of power into his spear, standing firm as he built up his momentum. Having fought to this point, he knew he had to unleash his most devastating attack."Here it comes!"All eyes were locked on the impending clash, each person holding their
"You fool! Don't think you'll be the last one laughing!"The Second and Third Guardians charged forward, joining forces to deflect Crimson Wyrm's relentless assault. Even with their combined strength, they could barely withstand a few moves."Do you really think we're without reinforcements?" roared
"Heh. I wouldn't dare accept your gift!" Maxwell scoffed, his voice steady despite the looming battle. Politeness had no place in this confrontation."Oh, but I'm sure you'll appreciate it," sneered Crimson Wyrm Master, his eyes gleaming with malice as he pointed at Darko, who lay crumpled on the gr
