With the plane's touchdown, Alexander and his companions were back in Ol' Mare. Amber had been distant to Alexander the whole trip, treating him like he had actually cheated, while she seemed to hit it off with Nerine.Once they left the airport, the group dispersed, with Nerine catching a cab with

Rhett cast a glance at his weak son, his heart shattering into pieces. Trembling, he asked, "Son, are you okay?""Dad, it hurts!" his son replied, looking pitifully at his father, still under the effects of anesthesia.Having suffered a major injury, it was only natural for his son to make the most
"Hmph." Jeremy was perplexed, not knowing what was in the bottle, yet thinking he could exchange it for the Pure Spirit Ganoderma.After a moment of hesitation, driven by curiosity, he opened the porcelain bottle.Red powder?He then brought his nose closer, sniffing lightly, catching a faint medici
Humming a tune, Jeremy returned to the old mansion of the Iversen family, feeling quite pleased.At this moment, many high-ranking members of the Iversen family were waiting for him inside the old mansion, worried that something might have happened to him."Dad, how did the negotiations go?" Rhett a
On that day, Alexander returned to Ol' Mare and went to pick up his daughter from school with his wife. With the arrangement of the century-old Pure Spirit Ganoderma settled, Alexander's arm could soon receive treatment, which greatly pleased Amber.Since the whole family was together, Amber suggest
"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
