“So what?” Six Fingers smirked coldly. “Sam, you're indeed powerful in South River City. I might be scared of you out there, but don’t forget, you’re in my territory now.”After he said that, his bodyguards came forward simultaneously while brandishing their giant knives. They looked as if they were going to chop Sam and Chase into pieces.Sam quickly pulled Chase behind him.“Retreat!”With Chase's sudden order, Sam went behind him.After scanning the men, Chase looked back at Six Fingers calmly. “Six Fingers, will you believe me if I tell you you’re going to die soon?"“Are you threatening me, kid?” Six Fingers scoffed in anger.“Not at all.”Chase shook his head. “I’m not, but this is just a kind reminder. The evidence you have is like a ticking time bomb. You'll die because of that, regardless of whether you give it to me or not.”After he said that, Chase added with a half smile, “Do you want to guess who wants you dead?”Six Fingers fell silent after he said that.Of c
“An assassin!”“Oh no! Protect the boss!”When the thugs saw this, they quickly ran toward the man.However, they were still too slow as the man had already approached Six Fingers.The man reached out his hand and grabbed Six Fingers’ throat with his fingers, holding him in a tight grip.“Boss, watch out!”One of Six Fingers’ lackeys ran toward him without hesitation, shielding him. Immediately, the guy's throat was crushed and he died on the spot.Meanwhile, Six Fingers took this opportunity to roll to one side, but he fell flat on his face. “Save me!”Six Fingers was horrified.His thugs ran over to fight with the man.“Kill him! Kill him! Tear him to pieces!” Six Fingers roared.However, the man was not scared of the thugs. He was ruthless and could kill someone with every move he made.In just more than ten seconds, all of Six Fingers’ thugs died. He was the only one left.Six Fingers fell to the ground in horror as he questioned, “W-Who are you?”The man removed hi
Why did the man feel as if he had punched a wall? He could not move forward at all.How was this possible?One must know that his punch could normally dent a metal sheet.“You’re a martial artist who’s just discovered your hidden strength. How weak.”Chase shook his head like he was disappointed. However, his reply stunned the man.The man realized that Chase was a master!At that realization, goosebumps rose all over the man’s skin. Immediately, he stopped and tried to flee.“Do you think you can run away?”Chase’s eyes glimmered, and a stick appeared in his hand.After some swooshing sound, the man who was escaping stopped in his tracks.If one looked closely, one would notice a hole at the back of his head. Half of the stick was sticking out from it.The man’s body fell with a loud thud. His eyes were wide as if he had died in shock.He would never believe that he was killed by a stick.When Sam saw this scene, he looked at Chase with admiration.How amazing was he to
Six Fingers could feel goosebumps rising all over his body once he felt the murderous intent coming from Chase.Where did this guy come from? The Harrigans were doomed.Suddenly, Six Fingers widened his eyes and stammered, “Y-You’re the survivor who killed Arthur!”He finally understood.This person in front of him was the notorious bronze-masked man!First, he killed Jacob and Tim. After that, he caused a commotion at the Quaids’ birthday party and killed Arthur as well as the other family members.When Six Fingers thought of this, he felt lucky that he handed Chase the recording. If not, judging from Chase’s attitude, he would be killed mercilessly too.“You’re pretty smart.”Chase peered at Six Fingers before turning his head to Sam. “Make arrangements to send him abroad.”“Yes, sir.” Sam nodded before calling a number.Soon, Six Fingers was sent away by the people ordered by Sam. The group of them got onto a ship to Northern Mainland the very same night.Finally, Sam poi
John looked around and said, “Now that he’s targeting us, we’ll be doomed if we don’t do anything.”“John, what should we do? Tell us and we’ll definitely cooperate.” Atlas, John’s third brother, said.John scanned the room. When he saw that everyone was waiting for him to come up with something, he chuckled and said, “Supreme Elder has already sent over his youngest disciple, who's on his way right now. He’ll be here in three days.“No matter how powerful that brat is, he can’t do much with Supreme Elder’s disciple around.”Everyone’s spirits were lifted.Supreme Elder was like an emotional support for the family. Since he decided to help them, it meant that they could rest assured.John then changed the subject. “However, Supreme Elder is dissatisfied with us. How dare the Coopers look down on us, let alone the other families?“He says that from now on, there can only be one ruler of South River City. We should suppress anyone who dares to go against us.”After John said this
When Tyson, overwhelmed by desires, heard this voice, the smile on his face froze.He turned his head and saw a young man dressed in black. He had no idea when this young man entered his house.The young man was sitting at the table right now. At this moment, the young man was drinking tea as he looked at Tyson as if he were already a dead man.The young man was, of course, Chase.“Kid, who are you? H-How did you come in?” Tyson was shocked.He had more than ten bodyguards watching his villa. Moreover, each of them was equipped with a German Shepherd.However, he did not hear anything this entire time.“Who am I?”Chase slowly took a sip of the tea before answering, “Good question. I'm the Harrigans’ nightmare and also the devil from hell. I’m here to demand repayment from your family.“As for how I came in? It’s easy. I came in through the front door.”Tyson remembered something when he heard that. His pupils contracted as he screamed, “Y-You’re that kid! You’re the survivor
“What?” Quinn was surprised.Once Mandy caught her breath, she immediately told her about everything she found out tonight.Quinn was delightfully surprised to hear the news.She was surprised because she did not expect Little Rocky to kill another person, and it happened to be someone from the Harrigans.The Harrigans were the most elite family in South City. The Quaids could not compare to them, and the power they held was unimaginable.Quinn was delighted because not one day had passed since the Quaids' collapse that she did not think of Little Rocky. Unfortunately, she did not have news of him after that.It meant that Little Rocky was safe if he was able to kill someone from the Harrigans.“Quinn, your Little Rocky has stirred up big trouble.”Mandy took a deep breath and said, “The person he killed was the fourth son of the Harrigans, Tyson. The Harrigans are so enraged that they’ve gone crazy trying to find him. They're even offering a 500 million reward for his capture.
“Alright. I’ll come to the office right now.”Quinn hung up and immediately washed up before leaving. She did not even have time to change.When she walked through the first floor, Chase had breakfast in his hand. “Isn’t it Saturday today?”“There’s an emergency at the office that I need to deal with,” Quinn said before heading out.She did not tell him about Huey because she was worried Chase would act rashly like the last time.Quinn quickly arrived at Blizzard Group. When she got to the office door, she saw a young man in a suit sitting in her chair with a bouquet of roses in his hand.Who else could it be but Huey?Huey immediately approached her with the flowers when he saw Quinn. “You’re finally here, Quinn. I’ve been waiting for you for half an hour.“I got these flowers for you. Do you like them?”“What are you doing here, Huey?” Quinn said brusquely to him.A cold look flashed in his eyes, but there was a smile on his face as he said, “I don’t mean any harm, Quinn. Y
"What has this got anything to do with me?"Chase could not understand the woman in front of him. Why would she say all these in the arena?"Before that, allow me to share a secret with you. The male and female phoenixes were supposed to be one."Chase was about to say something when Yara interrupted him, "The Rising of the Phoenix is not only about enhancing power after rebirth; it's a process of a male turning into a female and vice versa."But since the Dragon and Phoenix Calamity, the Phoenix Deity is the only Phoenix Demon Saint left, and he lost his power from the Rising to switch genders. He's unable to recover to his original power as well."However, he predicted that someone would be able to break him out of his suffering while wading in the river of fate."Yara looked into Chase's eyes with a smile."Is that person… me?"Anyone could tell the answer at this point.Chase was aware of what Yara was trying to tell him, but he still found it unbelievable when he asked the
Chase was the only person qualified to judge if there was murderous intent as he was the opponent in the arena.When Yara played the flute, it sounded like a beautiful melody from above the Ninth Heaven at first. If one listened closely, one could identify the vague signs of murderous intent.Chase scoffed at this. He thought it to be childish for one to hide murderous intent that way.He did not know music at all, but even he could tell what Yara was doing. Yara was looking down on him by doing this.When Chase was about to make his move, he was suddenly pulled into an illusion by the opponent. Chase was on a floating cloud above the Ninth Heaven in the illusion. It was just as Carla had said.He was initially flustered. How was he going to defend himself against the next killing move with such a powerful technique?While he was gathering all the vital energy within him, a sweet, melodious voice was heard. "Please don't retaliate, Mr. Collins. I bear no ill will."A tall, slen
"History scrolls don't really help with my cultivation. They make me drowsy every time, so I don't read them," Ford continued explaining without holding back. It did not seem wrong to him.However, his words made an impression on those listening.Ford was able to pick up the dragon clan's mystical techniques after reading them once. He even claimed it was not necessary to read them a second time. Was he even human? Oh, wait. He was a dragon. Tiana stared at him, not knowing what to say next.The Saintess of Emerald Lake Holy Land had not only fought with her talents yesterday but also with her hard work.When Tiana first entered Emerald Lake Holy Land, her master told her that her talents were upper-middle at best. She was considered extremely lucky to be accepted to the sect.Emerald Lake Holy Land was one of the top five sects in this world. It was second only to Sky Dragon Holy Land among the Four Holy Lands. Every disciple was the cream of the crop.Tiana grabbed attention t
Yara placed his flute to his lips and warned Chase, "I'll be making my move, Mr. Collins.""Please go ahead." Chase waved his hand casually and indicated for Yara to go ahead.It was the third round, and everyone at this stage was not to be underestimated. A powerhouse with a musical instrument for a weapon was rare. Chase looked forward to exchanging hands with him.The melodious sound of the flute was soon heard. All of the spectators could feel the atmosphere become more relaxed."Why is this Musical Technique non-lethal?""This can't be right. How did Yara Fries get into the third round? There's nothing formidable about this piece of music.""Is there anyone here who can explain?""He used his flute as a weapon in the previous rounds and knocked out his opponents with a couple of moves. He didn't play any music then.""Is he giving leeway to the opponent?""Could he be hinting at the opponent with his music that they're soulmates? They might end up being taken with each oth
As Clive had gained quite a lot, he decided to let it be. He allowed himself to let go of things. However, that being's consciousness began to open up to Clive, and that was when Clive realized how powerful the being was.It was one against the 12 Primal Treasures, and the universe was its target. It had existed for millions of years. The result of allowing it to take over was Clive losing complete control of his body. It was a projected image that vanished after Chase defeated it.However, Clive's body had been modified by it, and Clive's mind and soul were unable to control his own body. This was what had caused Clive to look like he was in a daze right after the match.Rania then used a mystical technique to transmit her cultivation and combine the powers of both parties. It triggered a lost talent within Clive that merged all of the swordsmanship he cultivated to form an unknown sword form that had never been seen before.Clive felt like he had been revived.He looked at the Ni
Inside the halved corpse, faint outlines of Rania and the coachman's bodies could be seen. They were twisted and contorted.Foul-smelling digestive fluid bubbled and hissed, corroding their bodies.Rania appeared to retain a shred of consciousness. "Cli... Clive... Clive... Help me... Save..."Her voice was faint, tremulous, and laced with sorrow. It stirred pity in the heart.In truth, even before she had spoken, Clive had already detected her presence through his spiritual consciousness. He raised his sword. His face was tormented as if he wanted to put a swift end to things. Yet in the end, he let out a long sigh and released a surge of true essence, pulling both the coachman and Rania from River's corpse.The coachman's cultivation was far too low, and his clothes were made of ordinary fabric. They offered no resistance to the corrosive and toxic digestive acid inside River's body.Half of his body was already unrecognizable, with the bones and internal organs exposed. His b
"Pathetic."The Nine-Sea Giant Squid that River had transformed into spoke with a human voice, then opened its gaping maw and swallowed her whole.The coachman, who had leaped off the horse the moment River transformed, scrambled and sprinted away. He was already dozens of feet out.Just then, a dark blur flashed past, and one of River's tentacles shot forward at incredible speed, snatching him back and devouring him in a single gulp as well."Disgusting. That woman tasted better," he muttered while slithering toward the carriage on his tentacles.Suddenly, an explosion echoed from within his belly, and faint glimmers of light shone through the surface of his body."That woman's protective artifact is so weak. Looks like she wasn't treated well in the Norths, after all."River examined himself carefully and found that it was indeed Rania's protective talisman that had just detonated. Yet his body remained largely unharmed. With some minor healing over ten days to half a month, he
Outside Light Divine City, Rania sat inside a carriage with Clive."Clive, say something, will you? You staying silent like this is really worrying me," she said while wiping the sweat from Clive's forehead and letting out a sigh.As a collateral descendant of the Norths, Rania's life had never been particularly easy. She had thought she had finally snagged a golden opportunity with Clive, only for him to fall into a daze after just one match.What was she supposed to do now?Everyone had witnessed their behavior during the tournament. Though some might look down on them, they would undoubtedly see the two of them as a pair by now.If she abandoned Clive at this point, she would surely be labeled a heartless woman.Just then, the carriage came to a halt. They had only left the city less than an hour ago and were still far from Universal Holy Land. Was someone blocking the road? Rania frowned and lifted the curtain.Sure enough, there was someone standing in the way.She looked c
Even though the match had ended, Lisa still could not fully escape the lingering terror.The slimy, wriggling tentacles covered in suction cups and jagged teeth, stretching out toward her… Such images were seared into her mind. The impact had been too great.Though she was a direct descendant of the dragon clan—an authentic ancient lineage and one of the top races in the entire world—she had been completely overpowered then.Normally, her bloodline would exert natural suppression over most others. However, at the time, she was almost crushed by another.She could not even begin to imagine what kind of race could do that."It tried to eat you?" Walter exclaimed in shock.As a great beast himself, he understood just how powerful the dragon clan's pure bloodline was.Even though the incident with the Lightning Dragon kneeling to Chase had dulled some of the mystique around dragons, it remained undeniable that they were a superior bloodline."For a creature to make a dragon feel lik
