LOGIN"She's quite arrogant!" Molly paced back and forth on the floor, her steps loud. "If she doesn’t want to help, then fine, but she really thinks she's someone important! Pfft!"
The young lady furrowed her brows and tightened her grip on Molly's arm. "Auntie Ashford."
Molly seemed a bit scared, muttering, "I just think that girl is so ungrateful. In front of so many people, Miss apologized, and she still wouldn't accept it."
"The ungrateful one is you!" Edgar couldn&r
The night was so thick it could not be dissolved, with visibility of no more than half a meter. The surrounding tree shadows twisted and writhed, baring their fangs and claws like the man-eating malicious spirits of legend.Amelia was an ordinary person as well. When facing the unknown, she too felt fear, yet now, alone in these perilous deep mountains and forests, she showed not the slightest hesitation.Because she had to find Carl. She would not abandon him alone and had to bring him home.She walked very slowly, pouring all her strength into every step. Weakness and unrelenting exhaustion surged over her like a tide. Her vision darkened again and again, forcing her to stop, brace herself against a tree, and breathe lightly until the dizziness passed before she continued on.She did not know how long she had walked when the tight pain in her chest grew heavier and her breathing became rapid and disordered. Her throat was so dry it felt as if it were sm
His Energy Sea had collapsed completely time and again, dissolving into nothingness, only to be forcibly reshaped by sheer obsession and vitality. Though it was no longer as vast as before, it had gained a strand of resilience fused with the primordial source of life.The agony never ceased. From flesh to soul essence, from sinew to marrow, every inch of him was repeatedly tormented. He clenched down hard on gums long devoid of flesh; even if his jawbone shattered, he refused to let out a single groan. All the pain, all the suffering, all the despair were buried in the deepest recesses of his heart, leaving only his obsession with Amelia as the sole pillar that sustained his will to live.He could feel it—thousands of miles away—Amelia's concern, Amelia's worry, Amelia's bone-deep reliance and longing. That invisible tether, like the toughest strand of silk, bound his soul essence as it teetered on the verge of dispersal, allowing him to grit his teeth and
The lighting in the VIP ward had been adjusted to an extreme softness, warm yellow light spilling over the pristine white sheets, yet it failed to warm the worry-filled space in Amelia's chest.She no longer asked questions as she had moments ago, but the unease that had seeped into her bones grew wildly like creeping vines through her limbs and veins, tightening until she could hardly breathe.Her eyes had turned red, dry, and sore, each blink carrying a faint sting, yet she remained oblivious, all her focus and all her thoughts concentrated on the small phone in her hand.The cold metal frame pressed against her burning palm, forming a glaring contrast in temperature. The lit screen illuminated her pale, haggard face as she opened her contacts and found the name Carl.Amelia's fingers trembled so violently that she could barely steady the screen. Her nails turned pale from the force as she jabbed the call button again and again."Beep—beep&
Along the way, blood continuously dripped from the hem of his clothes, his fingertips, and his wounds. It fell onto the bluestone slabs, among the fallen leaves, and into the soil, leaving behind a long, glaring trail of blood, like a crimson road that stretched from the mountain gate all the way toward the depths of the secret realm in the mountains.Every drop of blood carried the agony of the Heaven's Punishment he endured, and every drop carried the devotion of his all-consuming protection of Amelia.The excruciating pain clung to him like a bone-burrowing curse, gnawing at his consciousness without pause. Several times, he nearly collapsed directly in the mountain forest, his awareness sinking so low it was on the verge of shutting down completely. Yet whenever he thought of Amelia's pale little face in the hospital, thought of the Cromwell family still waiting for her, thought of how she would be frightened if she woke up and could not see him, that consciousness
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
Miles paused his fingers when he heard it, then reached out and patted Jensen's head."Jensen, you didn't have to say sorry to Grandpa. Looks like you already understood some things. Following your cousin and learning for so many days wasn't a waste. I thought you wouldn't be able to stick with it,
The people around were all having afternoon tea, and when they heard this, they all looked over here."Waiter, where's the waiter?"These rich ladies were all regulars. How much membership fee did they pay every year, they shouted like that.No waiter came. The manager showed up with a big smile: "
The relevant materials were already put in front of everyone.As soon as Mr. Davis arrived, his eyes couldn't help looking at that document with the seal.He knew better than anyone what was inside, and his eyes never left it.The person next to him saw this and joked, "What's up with Ezekiel today
The female soldier called Noelle couldn't contain her excitement on her face after hearing Amelia's words."Hey buddy, are you telling the truth?" Noelle couldn't help but confirm again.Amelia nodded, "It's true, they arrived before me, and they should have told you about the future too.""Yeah, t
