Adalee, that was the name engraved at the back of the pendant.

It seemed that she held a high position in the Storm Serpent Society. Adalee was the woman's code name.

In the Storm Serpent Society, only a person with a certain status would have a silver pendant with their code name engraved.

Liam kept the silver pendant and texted his subordinate. Then, he ignored Adalee's body and walked straight out the door.

Without any delay, he drove straight to Number 11 Grotto Lane.

However, as soon as he drove out of the intersection, he was caught in heavy traffic.

It was the morning rush hour at that moment, so the traffic on the way to Grotto Lane was at a complete standstill.

Liam's eyebrows furrowed tightly as he looked at the long lines of cars ahead of him.

He parked this car by the roadside, got out of the car, and rushed into an alley at the side.

Once he went through that alley, Grotto Lane was right across the street.

Liam moved at a fast pace and arrived at Number 11 Grotto

    The man started laughing lecherously upon hearing what his accomplice said."Adalee is very seductive. No man could ever resist her after they saw her."The other man laughed. He took out his phone and said, "Alright. I'll give her a call and tell her to get a move on."Jovie was so frightened that she hid in the corner. Her body was trembling, and her eyes were filled with tears of fear.Because the man threatened her earlier, she could only sob silently while covering her mouth, not daring to make a sound.Liam felt terrible as he saw how frightened Jovie was from the roof.He sneered in his mind when he heard the men mentioning Adalee. After he saw how Jovie was treated by them, he felt he went too easy on Adalee by letting her die so easily.At first, the man was still smiling. However, he gradually started to feel that something was off after he called Adale but nobody answered. The man who made the call frowned and said, "I feel something is a little off. Why didn't Adal

    Liam saw how roughly Jovie was being treated, and his gaze turned frosty. With an eerie sneer, he said. "Who I am isn't important. All you need to remember is that I'm here to take your life."Jovie was terrified. She wanted to cry and call out to her father. However, she remembered her father signaling for her to stay quiet when he entered. Even if she was terrified, she still held back her tears and did not struggle. She simply remained in the man's clutches obediently.Jovie knew that her father would surely rescue her.The leader was instantly infuriated. He glared at Liam murderously. "Dude, do you know who I am? This is the first time someone has ever dared to say he wanted to take my life to my face!"The other man was furious too. He stared daggers at Liam and snickered. "Hmph. You're the first person who dares to threaten the lives of the Twin Dragon bros."Liam raised an eyebrow condescendingly, fidgeting with the lighter in his hand. He said casually, "Well, try me and

    "Pfft, so this is the best the so-called Twin Dragon Bros can do?" Liam scoffed. Then, without missing a beat, he cocked his fist and struck the man squarely in the middle of his chest, sending his opponent flying through the air. A split second later, the man landed with a deafening thud on the ground, sending dust flying everywhere."Draco!" the other man let out a shriek. Draco, however, seemed fine despite the tough landing. He flipped over and got to his feet, his beady eyes glinting with malice as he glowered at Liam. "Ah, I have made the foolish mistake of underestimating you, you little twat! It's no wonder you had the guts to make such outrageous claims! It turns out you do have some tricks up your sleeve!" he said, sneering. He rubbed his chest, where it still throbbed from where Liam struck him, and said, "We'll see if you get lucky a second time, you twat!"With that, Draco channeled a powerful surge of energy—that of a two-star military king. He had learned his lesson

    Liam sneered. "That wasn't what you said just now, though. Come, tell me; how would you like to die?" Draco knew then that Liam had no intention of sparing him, so he stopped begging and kneeled there stiffly, awaiting his fate. He glowered at Liam, and finally, in a desperate but foolish act, he slowly reached for his dagger…"Take this, scum!" he screamed, withdrawing his dagger and lunging toward Liam. The next moment, Liam kicked him squarely in the middle of his chest, sending him crumpling to the ground. An excruciating pain shot through his chest, accompanied by a sickening crunch. It seemed that Liam had broken a couple of his ribs from that single kick."Ah!" Draco's screams of agony filled the open air. Liam strode over to him and stepped on his chest, leering down at him from his great height. "Now tell me, who put you up to this?"Blood was spilling out of Draco's mouth, and the weight of Liam's foot knocked the breath out of him. "In… in your dreams! You can tortu

    Liam fixated him with a look so cold that it sent shivers down Ladon's spine. Not even the sweltering heat of the fire could warm him. In fact, he had a sudden urge to turn around and dive right into the flaming inferno, just to escape Liam's wrath. "Sir, listen to me! My brother and I are both members of the Storm Serpent Society, and we were sent to kidnap this ras—I mean, this girl, as a part of our mission. The truth is, even we don't know who the real mastermind is…"Liam furrowed his brows at this. He slowly ambled toward Ladon, the blade of his dagger glinting maliciously in the sunlight.Fear crossed Ladon's face, and he backed away from Liam, despite the raging fire right behind him. He shrieked, "Sir, please don't kill me… I really don't know who the mastermind is… All we know about our mission was from our leader… I'm sure he must know who ordered this…"Ladon had never felt such fear before. The look on Liam's face was so menacing he felt as if he was staring into the

    "Yes, sir!" ten thousand soldiers chorused in unison, their echoes reverberating through the skies for miles afar.Although Liam was no longer their commander-in-chief, they were still devoted to him and had answered his call the moment he summoned them.Meanwhile…A handsome, sprawling manor was situated strategically in the thick mountains on the outskirts of Cascade City, a neighboring town of Drunham City. This was none other than the headquarters of the Storm Serpent Society. Cascade City was right next to Drunham City, about an hour between the two towns. It was the smallest city among the entirety of the district, but surprisingly, it was not the most poorly developed. Cascade City was blessed with sprawling mountains that yielded valuable minerals, most notably the priceless purple quartz. In fact, it was well-known for being one of the main exports of purple quartz, which was what led to its flourishment. Naturally, people liked to flock where there were abundant mine

    Everyone shook their heads at this. Jaden, who was the second-in-command of the Storm Serpent Society, looked just as perplexed as the next person. "Who is it from?"The subordinate shook his head and replied, "Sir, the messenger did not say. All he told me was that it is an expensive gift, and you will understand once you open it.""Very well then. Bring it in!" Milo commanded.Soon, the subordinate returned again, this time clutching a massive wooden chest. He set it down gingerly in the center of the room. The chest was extremely large and weighed easily over several hundred pounds. The chest was tightly sealed, and there was no indication of the contents inside.Milo scrutinized the chest for a few moments, trying to find any clue of what was contained within to no avail. Finally, he said, "Open it."Two subordinates cranked the lid open with some tools, and the moment the lid was removed, a nasty stench rose up and enveloped the entire room. A horrifying sight welcomed them—w

    "Sir, how should we handle this?" One of Jaden's subordinates asked. Jaden's expression was somber as he hissed, "Like how we always dispose of dead bodies! Do you need me to teach you something so simple?"The subordinate cowered at his sharp tone. "Yes, sir.""Also, try to find out who's behind this. Anyone who dares to challenge the Storm Serpent Society's honor shall pay!" Jaden snarled. Truth be told, Jaden did not pay much attention when Milo assigned this task to him. He thought it would be a simple task of kidnapping a little girl, and so had handed the assignment off to Adalee and the Twin Dragon Bros without much thought. He never once imagined Adalee and the brothers would not only fail the mission but return as mangled corpses in a wooden chest!Their opponent's act of returning the three corpses to him was a taint to his honor, and Jaden would not live this down!"Also, send someone to Drunham City to find out who that little girl's parents are.

    The new plan was a hit; every assassin in the room was on board.One of them, posing as a bellhop, stood at Liam's door, ready to knock.However, he never saw it coming. Before his knuckles could rap on the door, it burst open from the inside.Wham!The would-be knocker was sent flying, slamming into the corridor wall with a thunderous crash.The others barely had time to register what happened when Liam burst out, a quintuple-edged dagger in hand.He was a shadow among them, his blade a flash of silver that danced across their wrists, disarming them of their scimitars.In moments, the hallway was a cacophony of clattering blades and piercing screams that filled the hotel.The leader, clutching his bleeding wrist, stared at Liam in horror, leaning casually against the doorframe. Liam's dagger dripped crimson. He watched the fallen assassins with an unfeeling smirk."You think you can play assassins, skulking around in the dark?" Liam's voice dripped with scorn. With a casual f

    Noel was a name that turned heads in Rasford City, especially since the Noel family ran a successful pharmaceutical business. In any place, those in the medicine game hold sway, and Noel was no stranger to the city's shadowy bigwigs. After all, nobody was immune to getting sick!Noel was quickly taken to the hospital for emergency care. Meanwhile, the assassin he had hired had pinpointed the hotel where Liam and Sunniva were hiding out.Sunniva was still visibly shaken when they reached the hotel. Too frightened to be alone, she could only gaze at Liam with watery eyes, silently pleading to stay in his room.Liam, left with little choice, let Sunniva take his room while he made do with the couch in the living room.After the night's earlier ordeal, combined with the alcohol and the drug slipped into her drink, Sunniva washed up and promptly fell asleep in Liam's bed.Liam, however, remained on the living room sofa, poring over the mysterious Arcane Manuscript.Out of nowhere,

    "Thud!"Then, without missing a beat, Liam grabbed Noel by the throat and landed another punch on him. He struck him squarely on the chin, dislocating it and forcing a couple more of his teeth to fly out. "Ahhh!" Noel shrieked. His face was swelling up to twice its usual size, and he could not help letting out a cry of agony. Liam did not stop there, though. His fists rained down all over Noel without ceasing, his every punch striking where it hurt the most. "F*ck! You're going to pay for this!" Noel grunted. He would make this twat pay! What gave him the right to attack him? He was an heir of the great Noel bloodline, and he would make this cocky, self-righteous prat pay!Liam scoffed, then swung his fist and struck Noel squarely in his abdomen.Noel spat out a mouthful of blood, unable to utter another word from the sheer pain, but this did not stop Liam. The next moment, he grabbed Noel by the hair and bashed his head against the wall behind him.A sickening crunch alerted

    The words had barely left her mouth when Noel lost his patience, swung Sunniva around and slapped her hard across the cheek. "D*mn it, you f*cking sl*t! What the f*ck are you shouting for? Let me tell you this—no one will come to save you, not even if you cry yourself hoarse!"The slap came so abruptly that Sunniva was momentarily stunned. Her cheek soon swelled up, and a bright red mark in the shape of Noel's palm began to take shape. Noel had hit her so hard that the back of her head struck the wall behind her, and all she could feel was an intense, throbbing pain that reverberated through her skull. Blood seeped out of the cut on the back of her head, and she could feel the warm liquid trickle down her neck. She suddenly felt strangely faint and stopped resisting. Noel seized the opportunity to strip her naked, grinning. "Ms. Bristow, I suggest you stop wasting your energy. You're mine tonight, and there's no running now!"He had long since heard of Sunniva's beauty, and he was

    "Mr. Noel? What is the meaning of this?" Sunniva shrieked in alarm. Noel was wiping his face with a towel when she spoke, and upon hearing her voice, he slowly moved toward her. "Ms. Bristow, do I really need to spell this out for you? You're a gorgeous woman, and I admire you very much. There's nothing to be afraid of, darling. We're all adults here, so there's no need to be shy. I promise that I'll make this the most memorable night you've ever had. "Ms. Bristow, do you know how many women would die to be in your position? Women everywhere bend over backwards to keep me happy, and most of them are willing to please me just to get my business. If you still want this partnership, you better be a good girl and keep me satisfied. If not…"Noel trailed off, for at this point, he had already reached the bed and was just inches away from Sunniva. His flesh quivered with his every move, and he was so tall that he loomed over Sunniva's tiny body like a beast eyeing its prey. "You… you

    Noel was not used to being rejected so outwardly. Sunniva's indifference infuriated him greatly. He scoffed, then brought his hand up to his nose and took a deep breath as if trying to catch a whiff of any scent that Sunniva had left on his skin. He sneered. "Ms. Bristow, it seems you are intent on challenging me?"Sunniva replied curtly, "So what if I am?""Very well then! You like to do things the hard way, eh? Let me make this clear—the moment you step out the door, the partnership will be called off! I will no longer do business with Bristow Group!"The audacity!With a smug grin, Noel cast Sunniva one last look before returning to his seat. He watched her coolly and made no move to stop her from leaving again, for he knew he had her cornered. Sunniva stood rooted to the spot, her brows furrowed in deep concentration. Noel knew he had Sunniva caught in a dead-end situation. He smirked and raised his glass to his lips. "How about this, Ms. Bristow? Just one last drink with

    A glimmer of annoyance flashed through Noel's eyes, but he continued to reach toward Sunniva, grinning. "Ms. Bristow, I really, really admire you…"Sunniva froze. The next moment, she leaped to her feet, still holding her wine glass, and ducked out of Noel's reach. She replied, raising his glass in an attempt to disguise her nervousness, "Mr. Noel, I greatly admire your success as a businessman as well. Cheers to our partnership!"Noel's arm hovered in mid-air, looking awkward and forlorn as it dangled out of reach of its target. A strained silence fell over them. The tension lasted only a few minutes, though, because Noel soon regained his composure and drew his arm back. He clinked his glass against Sunniva's as though nothing out of the ordinary had happened. The two of them had been drinking for quite some time now, and Noel was growing more and more inebriated by the minute. He was a pale man, and so the alcohol gave him an unnatural flush that made him look as though he was

    "Thank you, Uncle Leonardo." With that, Liam and Cirocco left the manor. They returned to the hotel to meet up with Calum and Sunniva. Liam and Cirocco were waiting in the hotel's presidential suite, going over their plans for the upcoming days, when Calum burst in, looking flustered. Liam was the first to notice how strangely nervous Calum seemed. "What's wrong? Did something happen?"Calum explained hastily, "Sir, Ms. Bristow was just taken away by a group of locals. She claimed that they were the businessmen we were here to meet. Since you weren't back yet, she decided to go meet them herself. She wants me to inform you that they have gone to the Saint Louisiana Hotel and that you can meet them there."Liam furrowed his brows at this. Calum asked, "Sir, are you going to check on them?"Liam considered this a moment, then grabbed his phone and stood up. "I think I should. You and Cirocco should stay here and go over our plans. I'll pop by the Saint Louisiana Hotel. If Jeffre

    "Unfortunately, I cannot reveal to you the identities of the remaining five yet, but don't you worry—when the time comes, you will find out soon enough."Just remember, Liam, you are not alone! No matter what happens, the six of us will be here to help you the best we can!" Leonardo said, squeezing Liam's shoulder in reassurance. His expression was solemn, but there was a spark in his eyes. Liam was even more stunned to hear this. What was going on? Had his grandfather planned this for over twenty years ago? Did he somehow know that Liam would come searching for him?"Uncle Leonardo, what's going on here? Is Grandpa still alive?" Liam asked nervously.Leonardo's face fell, and he shook his head gravely. "Truth be told, I am just as confused as you are. I've been trying to track your grandfather down for years, but the last I heard, he was still being kept on Wraith Island. I haven't heard any news about him since, but I refuse to believe your grandfather would die on Wraith Island
