"Mister Waind, are you trying to suffocate him?"Among the four retreating people, one asked, puzzled by Lester's actions. It was unrealistic to think they could keep such a powerful semi-Empyrean trapped for long."Hehe. Let's start the fireworks show!" Lester laughed eerily, producing a remote con
After an intense battle, Alexander struck the two men out of the secret chamber, injuring them. He did not spare them a glance and chased after Lester; he was his real target.Although the two men, who were semi-Empyreans, had sustained some injuries, they fought back desperately, using their ultima

"My lord, we've captured everyone. Not a single person escaped," reported White Tiger. After a moment of thought, he added, "But a woman is causing a lot of commotion. She claims to have valuable information and wants to atone for her crimes."This was a typical case of opportunists scattering when
As evening approached, many floors of the New Chesire Group headquarters darkened except for the brightly lit conference room. Inside the conference room, over a hundred people were seated, mostly senior executives of New Chesire Group, highlighting the importance of the meeting."Not happening. You
Alexander sharply turned his head and glared at Jeremiah's secretary. "Get out before I lose my temper!"His method of dealing with the situation was straightforward, a fitting counterattack.He had just heard a few words from Jeremiah and his secretary, who seemed to want to use power to oppress hi
Alexander's voice was loud enough that even though there was some distance, Trevor—on the other end of the call—could hear him clearly."Mister Kane, please calm down! My family was ignorant and caused you trouble. I will visit Ol' Mare to apologize in person tomorrow," said Trevor in a placating to
In the following days, Alexander assisted Amber in handling the contracts for the new energy project while also using his free time to recover from his injuries. Without any distractions, life was quite peaceful.However, today, an unusual message disrupted Alexander's tranquility."Who are you?"Th
"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

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
