Amber, having wrapped up some pressing issues, breezed in fashionably late. "How did the talks go? What is Skyraze Group's angle for the partnership?"The new energy project was her baby, and she was all in. She was willing to play ball, provided Skyraze Group did not get too greedy."They're offeri
The following day, just past noon, Alexander and Amber finished their lunch and settled into an office chat."Amber, the weekend's almost here. Got any plans for a getaway?""How can I even think of fun with the new energy project up in the air? It's stressing me out. Thank goodness you're here to h
"Mister Kane, welcome!""Pleasure to see you, Mister Kane!""Good day, Mister Kane!"The socialites of Ol' Mare greeted Alexander with warm smiles and nods, their respect for him evident. They were not familiar with the ins and outs of the martial world, but Amber of Ol' Mare's standing as a busines
"So what if he's brave? Buried under all those bodies, what good does it do?" Quentin scoffed, sure he had won the day. He had planned that trap for Brody, but a last-minute switch put Alexander in the hot seat.Quentin patted himself on the back when everything went sideways.Boom! An explosion roc
"It was nothing, everyone!" Alexander responded.The situation was resolved in less than an hour, and Skyraze Group's Ol' Mare branch was no more.The business owners there were in awe of Alexander's formidable presence.It was not just his prowess that impressed them, but his generosity too. He did
Black Maple Master approached the heart of the hall, bowed deeply with hands clasped in front of him, and asked with a tone of utmost respect, "Brother, why did you call me here?"When he was relying on someone else's goodwill and resources, he had to play by their rules.Chaos Snake Master did not
The moon hung high, casting a silver veil over the entire Kane family estate, making it look like it was cloaked in a shimmering frost.The night was very still, and Alexander slept soundly. Suddenly, he was startled awake by a faint noise outside.Three figures, moving leisurely, had entered the Ka
Under the moonlight, two figures dressed in silver-white robes blended seamlessly with their surroundings as they hurriedly carried a person across the landscape."I didn't expect it to be this easy. They said Alexander would be difficult to deal with," one of them remarked."Didn't even notice when
"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
