“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
Even if a family of traditional medicine practitioners were willing to sell their formula to Quinn, she might not necessarily be able to compete with Huey Corporation.Huey noticed her reaction and smiled gleefully.Sighing, he said, “We shouldn’t be enemies, Quinn. We can be friends or even partners.“If you’re willing to divorce Collins and marry me instead, I can promise you that Blizzard Group will be the leading company for cosmetics in South River City. Huey Corporation will not compete with you.“I’ll even offer the cosmetics formula to you as a betrothal gift on the day I marry you. What do you think?”He said this with sincerity. Anyone who did not know him would be easily convinced.However, Quinn was not stupid. She knew very well that all Huey wanted was her body.Moreover, the Harrigans were involved in the fire at Green Hills Orphanage. They were Quinn’s enemies.There was no way she would work with the enemy.Quinn replied coldly at this thought, “I'll never mar
Tania once attended celebratory events held by other sects, only to encounter top-tier demonic beasts on the road. A brutal battle left her covered in wounds, and she missed the celebration entirely, offending the host.At that time, her master's resentment had already reached its peak.That thousand-year-old wolf demon became the last straw that broke the camel's back.Her master unleashed Emerald Lake Holy Land's most powerful technique—Radiance of Emerald, Eternal Slumber.Heaven and earth changed color the moment it was unleashed. The thousand-year wolf demon gathered all of its cultivation but still could not withstand the strike. It was reduced to ashes in an instant.Tania once thought that the gap between her and her master was not too wide and that she would rightfully inherit the mantle of leadership over Emerald Lake Holy Land within a century.Yet after witnessing that attack, she realized how wrong she had been. From then on, she started training harder and more dilig
Chase, who was standing directly in front of that sword strike, was equally stunned.Zacharias had been right!From that sword, he sensed the same divine intent as the one he had felt earlier in the clouds from that figure that resembled the Nine-Sea Giant Squid. It was evil, filled with pain and oppression, spreading boundlessly.Clive was indeed a projection—or a fragment—of Klondike!Chase's rage simmered down, replaced by a cold gleam in his eyes. This was the one who wanted to kill him?He was ready to strike back with full force. He summoned Greedy Wolf from the void, and his killing intent surged across the arena. The moment the blade appeared, it once again drew gasps from the audience.The overwhelming sword intent Clive had released earlier was instantly compressed and forced back by half as if it were afraid of Chase's blade. Then came the killing aura of Greedy Wolf. It was nearly tangible, sweeping across the hearts of every spectator.Earlier, Clive's sword aura had
Clive finally seemed to snap out of his daze."You brat, did you drug me?" he barked angrily, vaguely aware that something felt off. It was as if he had just taken a nap in the arena. His first thought was that Chase must have slipped him some kind of drug."If I had drugged you, would you still be standing there?" Chase scoffed at such a ridiculous accusation.That was true. If Chase truly had drugged him, Clive would probably already be lying unconscious in the rest area.Clive reluctantly accepted Chase's explanation for now."Let's settle this once and for all!" he shouted, raising his Heaven and Earth Sword as a boundless sword aura swept across the arena.Huh? His strength felt even greater than before. Clive grew smug with pride.Chase appeared completely unaware of his incoming strike.Rookie move, he thought. Chase must have been stunned by his sword intent and was now completely frozen.Clive was imagining it all in his head.Then, he shouted, "Boundless Heaven and E
As soon as Zacharias spoke of Klondike, Chase's sea of consciousness suddenly darkened.Chase was startled. He sensed a presence—some sort of power—watching him. He released his spiritual consciousness and swept the area but found nothing."That's Klondike's power. Just mentioning him will make you a target and draw his gaze," Zacharias warned. "I no longer have anything to lose, but you must be careful. If his true body takes notice, there's only one outcome—death.""It's too late. My master already has his eyes on you. Kid, did you not see what happened to Zacharias? I suggest you learn from it and—"Before Gideon could finish his sentence, an invisible chain shot out, binding his soul and sealing his mouth, leaving him completely unable to speak."You'd better behave. This is my sea of consciousness," Chase said coldly.The last time he struck Gideon with a bolt of lightning, it obliterated his soul, but Gideon had reformed using a portion of Zacharias' spirit. If Chase destroy
Chase had been wondering why it took Zacharias so long to wake up. Now that he was finally awake, why was he still so weak? More importantly, why did he immediately turn against his old acquaintance?What exactly had happened in between?"He's a fraud. The Nine-Sea Giant Squid and the Nine Sea Holy Sword are all projections or incarnations of that evil deity. All that nonsense about being fated with me was a setup—just a ploy to steal my divine foresight," Zacharias said as his spiritual form twisted like wisps of smoke, looking unstable and on the verge of dispersing completely."Evil deity? Projection? Are you talking about Klondike?" Chase asked, recalling the Nine-Sea Giant Squid he encountered on the fourth level among the Worthingtons as well as the so-called expert they summoned. He remembered they had mentioned someone named Klondike.Upon hearing Chase speak that name, Gideon visibly flinched in shock."So, you actually know?" he asked with a dark expression."My soul has
Fallon was a little speechless when he heard Ford's words.He had made up the whole "spiritual consciousness duel" thing on a whim, yet this kid delivered his commentary with such confidence and flair. It looked like he was a seasoned show-off too!Truly, the younger generation was not to be underestimated. Fallon could not help but let out a snort of laughter.Carla, standing beside him, transmitted a quiet message via spiritual consciousness, "Ford… isn't wrong.""What?" Fallon was stunned.In terms of soul and spiritual consciousness, Carla was undoubtedly one of the top experts in the nether realm. As someone who focused on physical cultivation, Fallon had always respected her spiritual skills.However, this so-called "spiritual consciousness duel" had just been something he made up.Even Carla had believed it was a lie earlier. Yet now, she was suddenly vouching for Ford, saying he was telling the truth?It really gave Fallon a scare."I made this up on the spot. Are you s
"Could they be rigging the match?""The reward for the Holy Path is at the martial god level. Would they fake a match for that?""It's exactly because it's a martial god-level reward that they'd rig the match, got it?""No way. I object. City Lord, these two are definitely up to something!"As Clive and Chase remained motionless for longer and longer, Fallon and Carla also noticed something was wrong.However, after scanning the arena with their spiritual consciousness, they did detect a clashing of energy between the two.After a brief moment of thought, Fallon spoke up. "Everyone, please calm down. These two prodigies are currently engaged in a rather novel type of battle—a spiritual consciousness duel. The fight between them is currently in a deadlock. A single misstep could mean complete annihilation of their souls."Only those whose spiritual consciousness is highly refined can perceive what's going on. So please, be patient and wait for the match to conclude."The crowd im
"Kid, if I hadn't deliberately transmitted my voice to you, do you think you could hear me?"Chase flinched. That voice had clearly echoed within his sea of consciousness. Could it be that Zacharias Crane had awakened?He quickly recalled the Seer of Whitepeak—the former elder of the Shadowless Sect whom he had subdued—and hurriedly searched within his sea of consciousness.Zacharias' soul still lay dormant."Heh, just as I thought. That old fellow is suffering too, hiding out inside you." The voice sounded pleased.Chase was completely stunned."Let me be honest with you. I'm the Nine Sea Holy Sword, Gideon. That Zacharias kid always bragged about being a peerless divine seer. But it turns out that even he couldn't escape his fate."As he spoke, a translucent figure materialized within Chase's sea of consciousness. He wore a gray robe and carried nine long swords on his back."Sir, and you are…"Chase was shocked. This man had entered his sea of consciousness silently. If he m
"That's no surprise. They're human too and have emotions. It's normal.""Aren't cultivators supposed to develop noble hearts as part of their cultivation? How can they allow such raw emotions to control them?""Well, not everything looks like it seems. The way they vent their emotions is different from us common folk."Chase looked exasperated while listening to the discussion below. He did not want to listen in on them. However, there was something about Clive.When Chase tried to sense Clive with his consciousness, he could sense an ordinary cultivator and an unfathomable cultivator who was as mysterious as a deep, black hole. It got him curious. Could this man have a split personality? Or was he possessed?Chase released his consciousness completely to be safe. This way, he could watch over every move Clive made.This move had also caused him to hear every unnecessary voice below the ring.Clive had no idea what Chase had done. All he knew was that a pair of mysterious eyes s
