"How childish!" Black Maple Master saw through his intentions. After dodging Brody's attack, he swiftly struck out at Jordan. Then, he flickered away, leaping out of the window.In times of crisis, everyone would naturally fend for themselves."Aahh!" Jordan, used as a shield, roared in anger, but i
After seeing his daughter off to school that early morning, Alexander received a call from Amber."Alexander, there's an old lady at the company looking for you, claiming to be our relative.""Relative? I see. I'll be right over." Alexander supposed it was someone from the Quantz family.After all,
Amber lowered her head, lightly biting her lip, and spoke softly, "Um, you won't blame me for eavesdropping, will you?"Everyone was entitled to privacy, even between spouses. Eavesdropping was not the best.Alexander smiled, stepping forward, hands resting on his wife's shoulders. "Silly, this is a
"The Celestial Sword Formation," Alexander remarked, discerning the opponent's identity.Comprising 10 individuals, the Celestial Sword Formation united 10 strengths into one, balancing offense and defense, unleashing power far greater than the sum of its parts.Recorded in the Flowering Strike Swor
"Retreat!"10 figures swiftly backed away, escaping the range of the attack. The formation underwent another transformation."Ten Swords as One!" another command echoed, and nine individuals sheathed their swords, aligning themselves in a row, their hands pressing against the back of the person in f
The scene before them was far from what they anticipated.They had pictured the family residing in a modest thatched cottage, tending to fields, and caring for grazing sheep, much like the idyllic image of a hermit's lifestyle.Instead, they were met with towering skyscrapers, bustling traffic, and
"Charge!" A voice from the crowd roared, yet none dared to make the first move. The recent battle had proven that even those in the Lord of War realm would fall quickly. Facing someone as formidable as Alexander, fear gnawed at their hearts."Enough dilly-dallying, attack!" Hoyt's angry command fell
"Go to bed early, rise early, and devote more time to martial arts cultivation—that's how I managed to keep up," Alexander suggested after a moment of contemplation. He discovered martial arts texts within the jade pendant left behind by his mother and diligently followed a regimen of martial arts c
"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
