LOGINOn the screen, the young man’s youthful face froze for a moment, then he snorted arrogantly. Behind him was a large study, enough to show his family’s wealth.
**[User_8: Wow... he's so handsome and fair!]**
**[User_10: Young master, look at me!!]**
Amelia recognized the face in the camera and spoke calmly, “You’re the third son of the Hart family? Sam Hart?”
**[Happy Life: Doesn’t seem like the host is too
Carl's fingers curled slightly as a force locked directly onto the man's soul essence and slowly tore it out. "Hurt her by even a fraction, and I would make you suffer soul shattering, never to be reborn for all eternity."With a faint sound, the black-robed man's soul essence disintegrated inch by inch in midair, leaving behind not even the last trace of a wail.At this point, all the black-robed figures who had ambushed Amelia were completely tortured to death by Carl.Before the mountain gate of the Mistpeak Sect, nothing remained but a field of ruin, the heavy stench of blood, and Carl standing beneath the dying sun, cold aura radiating from his entire body.He slowly turned around, intending to walk toward Amelia and pull her back into his arms once more.But at that very moment, the sky abruptly changed.The blood-red horizon instantly filled with gathering dark clouds. Violent winds howled, thunder roared, and pitch-black clouds surge
The silver needle displayed almost divine mastery in Amelia's hand, even though she had already been utterly exhausted.The last Elder rolled and crawled his way to the entrance of the Main Hall. His legs gave out, and with a heavy thud, he dropped to his knees on the cold bluestone ground.His entire body trembled as his forehead struck the ground again and again. Blood mixed with dust smeared his face, and his voice came out hoarse and broken: "Please, spare my life! I swear, I will never come to Mistpeak Sect again for as long as I live!"Amelia walked forward step by step. Her clothes had long been soaked through with blood, dark red all over, and every step she took left a faint bloody footprint on the stone stairs.The setting sun fell upon her, resembling not an afterglow, but bloodstained armor.She looked down at him from above. There was no anger in her eyes, no ferocity, only a dead, icy stillness—the final calm before a great veng
Amelia leaned against Carl's chest. She lifted her head and looked at his sharply defined jawline. "I couldn't dodge it just now. Thank goodness you were there."Carl lowered his head, his gaze falling on the bloodstained smear on her cheek. His fingertips gently brushed away the trace of blood. His voice was low and tender, carrying a faint pain he did not easily reveal. "Be more careful."He had almost been too late. If anything had truly happened to Amelia, even sacrificing the entire Mistpeak Sect would not have been enough.A reverse scale was never just an empty saying.The rules of the heavens had already been broken the moment he reached out, yet he could not afford to care. Once that punch landed on Amelia, it would have meant death or grievous injury.His fiancée could not be allowed to come to harm."You... who exactly are you?" The Second Elder clutched his knee and asked in a trembling voice.Carl ignored him and s
Across both the American and London stock markets, massive short positions were taken with frenzied intensity against the shares of the Cromwell Group.An overwhelming wave of sell orders swept through the market like a flood. The Cromwell Group's stock price collapsed the moment trading opened, triggering circuit breakers ten times within a single hour. More than $60000000000 in market value evaporated, retail investors panicked and dumped their shares, capital forces smashed the price relentlessly, and the Cromwell Group's stock became as worthless as scrap paper, plunging nonstop with no strength left for any rebound.Inside the stock exchange, wails filled the air. The Cromwell Group's ticker symbol had already become a nightmare that every investor desperately avoided.The overseas banking alliance secretly controlled by Mystic Vale suddenly announced, without negotiation, the termination of all cooperation with the Cromwell Group, demanding immediate repay
"I would never lie to you. When the boss came back, I would bring you another Family Meal." Amelia smiled and nodded, then immediately placed a call, instructing the most reliable person in the Cromwell family to drive to the hospital.Within less than fifteen minutes, Bronson arrived at the ward, respectfully greeting Amelia and Carl before gently taking Elijah's small hand.Elijah turned back with every step, his tiny figure reaching the doorway of the ward, still remembering to wave at them. "Goodbye, boss! Remember to bring me fried chicken!"Amelia smiled faintly and said, "Alright, but do not forget what I told you to do.""Do not worry, boss, leave it to me!" Elijah revealed a bright smile.Only when that small figure disappeared at the end of the corridor, and the aroma of fried chicken in the ward gradually faded, leaving behind only the faint scent of disinfectant mixed with warm sunlight, did the gentle smile on Amelia's face slowly rece
She was even less certain by what defiant, heaven‑defying means Carl had dragged Elijah back from the brink of life and death, reshaped his soul essence, and suppressed the rampaging power within him. She never asked. She could read the faint ripples in Carl's eyes and understood that everyone carried secrets they were unwilling to bare, their own principles and forbearance. Since he chose to hide every storm himself, she tacitly chose not to probe, content to guard the quiet peace before her.Elijah quickly ran up to Amelia, his small body coming to a stop as he tilted up a fair, round little face. His eyes sparkled as he looked at her, his mouth splitting into a wide grin that revealed two tiny tiger teeth, adorably silly and endearing.His little hands unconsciously clenched the hem of his clothes as he bounced and swayed, unable to wait to speak to Amelia, brimming with reliance and closeness."Boss, I missed you so much." Elijah spoke brightly, his voice cr
From the special unit, everyone talked with their own style: "How did the review go?""The evidence was solid.""Then I took him away. Our boss said to let him go meet his master."Eduardo looked up suddenly when he heard that, his eyes were shaking.Impossible, there's no way they could've found t
When he heard those three words, Derek suddenly looked up: "You, you...""You were about to retire, but still wanted to control everything. My senior hadn't even arrived, and you were already thinking about setting him up. You refused to cooperate with the transfer. Derek, you not only forgot who g
It was Amelia.If she showed up now, no one would doubt her abilities like before.Everyone, in their eyes, had nothing but amazement and admiration.I didn't know she had those kinds of skills and connections before.Now everyone knew, it was her working with the action team that cracked the big c
"Something was off."Amelia glanced at him, "Auspice can ward off evil, you go."Teenager: ...First time hearing about this.Turns out, when the boy stood there, most of the dead atmosphere around really got pushed down.The girl saw it was Amelia, so she quickly pulled her hand back, but her soul
