"W-What do you want?"

He got a loud slam on the table in response. A long table made out of redwood cracked, and wood chips flew everywhere. Hadley was not prepared for this and almost got hurt.

"Ow!"

Everyone took a sharp breath as they looked at Chase fearfully while backing off. They knew that Hadley was a goner.

Esther, the young heiress of the Coopers, was also trembling from fright. She tugged at Chase's sleeve, afraid he might do something overboard.

However, he next did something no one expected.

Chase grabbed Hadley by the neck and pulled him up from his seat. Chase said coldly, "You want to play? I'll play!"

"You!" Hadley panicked. He tried to struggle but was unable to exert any strength.

Chase elbowed him in the abdomen, causing Hadley to scream. He instantly sucked in his stomach as his face turned pale. Hadley's lips trembled. He broke out in a cold sweat from the pain and could hardly speak.

He fell onto the floor the next second. He was heaving and covered in s

    Hadley's face was pale as he tried to push himself up with both hands on the ground. He stumbled out of the hall.Chase looked around and said calmly, "Everyone, the charity event tonight will continue."The noise in the hall gradually died away after he declared this. Everyone looked at each other and kept silent. There was respect and fear for Chase in their eyes."Are you helping me?" Esther was stunned and asked the question.Chase took a gentle sip of red wine as a glint flashed in his eye.The Starks were a powerful family in Capital City. They had great influence, especially overseas, and they had immense power that could take down any government. They even had military power.If it were not for the Coopers, Chase would have gone ahead to destroy the Starks."Chase Collins…" Hadley soon walked out of the washroom with a dark look on his face.Chase turned to glance at him. "What do you want? Do you still want to fight me?""No, I don't!" Hadley could feel this chest tig

    The hall fell into silence, and everyone looked at Chase with shock.Chase was very young. They wondered about his background and how he managed to beat the young successor of the Starks into begging for mercy all on his own."Thank you, Chase…" Esther's pretty face flushed red as she said in a low voice.Chase glanced at her coolly and shook his head to say, "Don't forget what you promised me.""Yes… I won't go back on my promise…" Esther said in a small voice."I hope so." Chase smiled. "I have something to attend to. I'll be leaving first."Chase got up after that and strode toward the stairs."Wait… You…" Esther wanted to call out to Chase but decided against it when she saw the cold view of his back.Chase's attitude hurt her, but there was nothing she could do about it. After all, she could not grasp his temper at all."Hmph! He loves putting up a good act, doesn't he?!" Esther said with clenched teeth.She had to admit that Chase was handsome and full of charm.Howeve

    "Just leave this to me." Glenn waved Hadley off after that.Hadley felt relieved and said, "I'll leave this to you, Dad. I'll return to the party now."…It was a peaceful night.Chase left the hotel and drove back to the suburbs."Master." Black Panther lowered its head and asked, "Who's Hadley Stark? How dare he attack you?"Chase ignored it. He did not come to Capital City only to look for spiritual herbs. He had another reason. Chase needed a Breakthrough Pill.The Starks had one, and Chase decided to make a trip there."Where are we going, Master?" Black Panther continued asking.Chase kicked it and replied with indifference, "Get me information on the Coopers.""Huh?" Black Panther was puzzled. "Information on the Coopers?"Chase nodded. "I trust your capabilities.""Umm… Yes, Master!" Black Panther quickly nodded.It was not stupid. It knew how powerful Chase was. If it angered Chase, it might be turned into minced meat!Not long after, two sedans drove to a house

    Chase was astonished. "What's going on? Is this because of the Element-Gathering Herb?"Black Panther said in a low voice, "The Element-Gathering Herb has caused a strange occurrence that affected the flow of elements in heaven and earth. This has resulted in the vitality in the sky and earth to become chaotic to the point of this strange occurrence happening." "Are things really that serious?" Chase was shocked."Yes."Black Panther nodded grimly. "I remember reading past records of it. It's taboo for cultivating martial artists to be emotional. If their mental state gets damaged, they'll be unable to achieve a breakthrough if the backlash isn't serious. Serious cases would see the person explode in death." The look on Chase's face changed when he heard this.A damaged mental state would result in one being unable to achieve a breakthrough if the backlash was not serious. Serious cases would see the person explode in death?Chase suddenly realized something.The Starks had lur

    Hadley glared viciously at Chase and roared savagely, "You'll be dead when my father arrives!"Not long after Hadley declared this, a look of delight appeared on Hadley's face because he had already seen a Lincoln limousine slowly driving in.The car door opened.Glenn got out of the car and was followed by other core members of the Starks."Dad! Help me!" Hadley quickly shouted.Glenn frowned and looked over. His eyes widened at the sight in front of him.Outside the Starks' mansion was a young man of about 17 or 18. He was standing with one hand behind his back and had a cold look in his eye. He looked like he was waiting for Glenn."Is that the sole survivor of the Collinses?"There was a glint in Glenn's eyes. He observed Chase carefully as his heart beat with fear. It was hard to determine how powerful his cultivation was! "What did you do?!" Glenn looked at the pitiful state his son was in, and his expression darkened."Dad, I want that little bastard killed!"Hadley'

    "How insolent!""You're just a country bumpkin! How dare you make trouble at the Starks? You must be tired of living!"Dozens of figures suddenly appeared. They had a strong aura and looked like wolves going for the kill. They were not afraid of death.However, all of them fell and howled from pain the moment they got within a hundred yards of Chase. They coughed up blood and got seriously injured.It only took one palm attack from Chase to take down all his enemies."Huh…"Glenn took a sharp breath. He was terrified.He could tell from this slight release of aura that this young man was a semi-saint!Semi-saints were a rare existence. They were considered royalty in Capital City.Martial artists of such level had specialized missions within the Martial Arts Alliance and enjoyed generous income and benefits. A semi-saint rarely bothered about the common world, much less got involved with gaining profit.However, the young man in front of him was not only ready to murder, bu

    "It's too late!"Chase's expression was cold, and he was not about to spare Glenn. He waved his finger through the air and flung it down hard as a gale of wind whistled down along with it."No! Help me!"The Starks ended up in chaos. They were in fear and tried running away with all their might. They were not brave enough to stop Chase.Chase's attack came down heavily like a comet crashing toward the Earth. The destruction was immense, instantly suppressing everything.Glenn's eyes widened as he turned as pale as a sheet. He tried everything in his power to evade the destruction but was too slow.With that, blood splattered everywhere.Chase pointed at him and poked a hole through Glenn's body.Glenn was in shock as he howled painfully. The patriarch of the Starks, one of the wealthiest businessmen of his generation who had swept the world's feet and conquered all, had ended up beaten badly in the garden of his own mansion."Dad!""Grandpa!"A few Starks broke down crying.

    "Spare your lives?"Chase glanced at them with disdain. He then said with a cold grunt, "You want me to spare you? Have you thought about how you treated me just moments before?""I…"The Starks were rendered speechless.He was right. They had treated Chase like a slave and insulted him. That was not all, they even threatened to break his leg and feed him to the dogs!"You're nothing but an ignorant group of people." Chase shook his head. He was not bothered to say much to them.He stepped forward. Every step he took created cracks in the ground under his feet. His footprints dug deep into everyone's hearts which were already brimming with fear.He leaped into the air and moved as quickly as lightning. He leaped thousands of feet into the air and landed on a rooftop.Chase punched down hard, and the building collapsed. There was dust everywhere. The dust settled down very soon.Everyone turned to look and saw most of the high-ranking Starks had passed out. As for the pretty ma

    "How could it not be here?" Chase muttered, narrowing his eyes. He was certain the Hawkinses' treasured manuals should be stored in this library.Suddenly, his expression shifted as he sensed something unusual.A faint breeze seemed to manifest out of nowhere, followed by a soft green glow that gradually expanded, forming a hazy barrier.Chase focused his mental energy, triggering a subtle yet profound ripple from the depths of his consciousness."Break for me!"His spiritual force surged like thunder, tearing through the barrier in an instant."So, the library not only holds cultivation techniques but is also protected by a spiritual restriction formation! For an ordinary martial arts saint, even someone at the peak stage, breaking through this would be impossible!"With a cold snort, Chase strode confidently toward the center of the library.There, in the heart of the room, sat a skeleton cross-legged. Its surface glowed faintly with a greenish hue, and it radiated a powerful

    "Hmm? Someone's approaching," Chase muttered, his brows furrowing together.He sensed several figures drawing near, their presence becoming increasingly apparent."It seems some people aren't ready to give up. Fine. If they've come, they won't be leaving," Chase said, a glint of cold determination flashing in his eyes.Without warning, Chase leaped out of the window and slammed his foot into the ground.The courtyard erupted in a cloud of dust and debris."Chase, prepare to die!"Several figures in black emerged, their auras sharp and menacing. All of them were martial arts saints who were exuding lethal intent.Four blades streaked toward Chase, each gleaming with deadly precision."Child's play," Chase remarked with a sneer. With a casual wave of his hand, he deflected the incoming attacks.The sheer force of his strike was overwhelming, like the weight of a mountain crashing down.In an instant, two of the martial arts saints exploded into clouds of blood and gore, leaving

    "Fine! As long as you spare my life, I swear eternal loyalty to you. I'll serve as your slave or servant if that's what it takes!" Luis declared without hesitation. He knew too well that if he refused, death would be his only outcome.Luis was not afraid of dying—he simply could not accept defeat. A lifetime of prestige was ruined in an instant."I, Luis Hawkins, swear to the heavens that I'll submit to Chase Collins and never betray him. Should I break this oath, I vow to meet a terrible end!" Luis raised his hand and spoke in a firm, resolute tone.Chase scoffed, his expression tinged with disdain. He had no intention of believing Luis, and the mockery in his eyes was evident. "Luis, you think I don't see through your games? Do you think I'm unaware that you're merely stalling for time?""H-How do you know that?" Luis narrowed his eyes, a murderous glint flashing within them.Chase chuckled coldly. "Luis, I've dealt with countless schemers and liars. Your petty tricks? They don'

    "You can try," Chase said with a faint smile."You…" Luis was consumed with rage.Suddenly, a pitch-black spear shot out from the side. It was aimed directly at Chase.Chase's expression shifted. With a light tap of his toes on the ground, he leaped back several yards, creating distance between himself and the attacker."I see the Hawkinses really are cunning!" Chase's gaze turned icy. "But since you're so desperate to die, I'll gladly oblige."Sword energy erupted, sharp and unforgiving. A single flash pierced through the head of a guard."Y-You're breaking your word!" Luis roared, his face turning an ashen shade.He had planned to use the family members as leverage against Chase, but instead, Chase had struck preemptively."I won't lay a single finger on your family," Chase said coldly. "But as for the others... Don't blame me for what's about to happen."He stared at Luis, his expression devoid of emotion. "Do you really think I care about the Hawkinses' wealth? To me, your

    Luis was utterly stunned upon hearing Chase's words. He had never imagined Chase's appetite would be so insatiable. He wanted the entirety of the Hawkins family's assets!"Mr. Collins, pardon me for being frank, but if it's money you want, the Hawkinses are not lacking in that. I can offer you five times the amount you desire," Luis said, attempting to negotiate.Chase chuckled. "Mr. Luis, you've misunderstood. Money means nothing to me." He then added while shaking his head, "I'm after more than just your resources. What truly interests me is the Hawkinses' forging techniques. Surrender those, and I might spare your life.""The forging techniques?!" Luis's eyes widened with disbelief. "Impossible! Absolutely impossible! The Hawkinses' ancestral rules strictly forbid passing those techniques to outsiders. We can only offer you finished products!"The forging techniques were a legacy painstakingly developed by generations of the Hawkinses' forebears. They were the family's lifeblo

    "Young man—no, Mr. Collins—please, let's talk this through. There's no need for violence," Luis pleaded. His dignity as the head of the Hawkins family had all but vanished. The Hawkinses had been a cornerstone of Bactria, influencing its entire power structure. Now, however, Luis saw that everything could change with Chase. He needed to bring Chase to their side no matter what it took.After all, Chase's talent was extraordinary, and his potential for growth was limitless. If the Hawkinses could recruit him, they would gain a formidable martial arts saint. They could elevate their standing to unprecedented heights.Luis said, his face stretching into a fawning smile, "Mr. Collins, on behalf of the Hawkinses, I'm willing to compensate you with any resources you need. I can even offer you an entire mine to aid your refining pursuits.""You think I need your resources?" Chase scoffed, his tone dripping with mockery. "And from the Hawkinses? I doubt you can provide anything worthwhile

    "What… What's happening? Why are these swords flying on their own? Such powerful sword energy! Are these... black iron swords?!"Everyone was stunned, their eyes wide with shock. The event unfolded so abruptly that none of the Hawkinses' guards could react in time.In an instant, countless black iron swords tore through the air, forming a dense cloud that surged toward the guards like a tidal wave."This is bad!" Luis roared in fury. "Block them!"A massive surge of energy exploded from him, forming a white fist aura that smashed into the incoming sword energy."Hmph! A mere insect of a martial arts saint dares to intercept my black iron swords? You people are courting death!" Chase sneered.With a wave of his right hand, the swarm of black iron swords merged into a single massive blade that slashed down toward Luis.A terrifying sword light split the air. Luis hastily countered with a punch, but it was not enough to escape unscathed. A gruesome gash tore across his chest, blood

    "Reckless fools," Chase muttered coldly.He raised his hand and struck out, unleashing a golden palm strike that swept through the air like a tidal wave, enveloping a radius of dozens of feet. Everything in its path was utterly destroyed.The golden imprint descended, shattering every weapon it touched. Bones snapped, flesh tore, and blood splattered in all directions. The power of a single strike crushed everything in its wake."Run for your lives!""No…""Help me!"Agonized screams echoed through the air as bodies fell lifelessly to the ground.Luis' face turned ashen at the sight. He involuntarily stepped back while trembling. "You… Who are you?!"Chase did not bother to respond. Without sparing Luis another glance, he strode toward the Hawkinses' grand estate.It was a sprawling complex of magnificent architecture that exuded opulence and grandeur.Inside, the family members were already alerted to the attack. They had gathered in the main hall, and they whispered nervous

    Despite his exhaustion, Zion pressed on as he was convinced that Chase would eventually falter."Seventh Form!" he roared, unleashing a blade strike that seemed to split the heavens and earth.Yet even as the towering blade descended, Chase remained unmoved. With hands clasped behind his back, he stood still and made no effort to dodge or block the attack.An arm fell to the ground, blood splattering everywhere.Zion's eyes widened in utter disbelief as he stared at the scene. His most powerful strike had severed an arm, but it was not Chase's."T-This can't be… H-How is this possible?" he stammered. Zion looked lost, unable to accept the reality before him."It doesn't make sense! How could you withstand my blade? This defies logic!" he muttered, his voice tinged with confusion and despair."You're just too weak," Chase replied calmly while casting a cold glance at Zion.Flicking his finger, Chase sent a pill into his mouth. The pill dissolved instantly, replenishing his deple
