“Yes, I am.”“Little Rocky has taken up too much burden over this. I… I’d like to help him.“Besides, I need to take responsibility for Myra’s condition too. I’m her sister, after all," Quinn said with determination.Bianca frowned and said, “I heard that Rochester is huge and quite a complicated place. How are you going to find Mr. Collins when you have no idea of his exact location?“Moreover, you’re a woman who will be there on her own. What if you get into danger?”Quinn nodded. “I know. That’s… That’s why I’d like to borrow that bracelet on your wrist. Don’t worry, I’ll give it back to you in one piece when I return," she pleaded.Bianca lowered her head to glance at the bracelet on her wrist. There were only three beads left on it. She hesitated.This was her birthday gift from Chase, and it was very precious to her. It had even saved her life.She was not willing to give it to anyone else.Quinn smiled helplessly when she noticed this. “It’s fine if you aren’t willing.”
The lecherous man took out his phone and made a call. He said a bunch of things to the person on the other side of the call.It was not long before a sexy-looking middle-aged woman came over with a cigarette in her mouth.The lecherous man whispered something in her ear and pointed at Quinn, who was some distance from them.They discussed a price, and Gail Fansworth accepted a thousand from him before crushing her cigarette and heading toward Quinn.Quinn was munching on her bun when someone suddenly patted her on the shoulder.She turned and saw Gail smiling widely at her. “Are you Fifi’s little girl, Sasha?”“I think you must be mistaken,” Quinn replied with a frown.“That’s impossible. I’ve met you before. Aren’t you Sasha Frink?” Gail asked in a whisper.“I’m really sorry. You really are mistaken. My surname isn’t Frink,” Quinn replied coldly.“Are you sure? I’ll only believe it if you let me see your identification,” Gail refused to relent.Quinn held her temper as she s
The next morning at around 9:30 am, Waylon's car stopped downstairs at Chase's hotel. When the passersby recognized Waylon, they were astonished. However, they were more curious as to why he was there. He looked as if he was waiting for someone. Soon, they saw a young man coming out of the hotel. Even though he was dressed casually, he had an extraordinary demeanor.“Master Collins!”Waylon and his group immediately lowered their heads in respect.“Let’s go.”Chase glanced at the astonished crowd and stepped into Waylon’s car. As they watched Waylon leave with Chase, the crowd erupted.“Gosh, I can’t believe Waylon was here to welcome that young man!”“Not only that, it seems like Mr. Hayes even respects him a lot.”“I can’t believe this…”The passersby kept discussing among themselves.…As the car drove on the road, many luxury vehicles would make way for Waylon upon seeing his exclusive number 10000 license plate. Inside the car, Waylon looked at Chase with reveren
Chase grunted a reply and did not say anything. The beef between the elite families in Rochester had nothing to do with him. He only cared about the Centennial Blood Root and Sky Spirit Flower.Waylon hesitated before speaking, “Master Collins, I heard that the Gilligans will also fight for the Centennial Blood Root. So, I think your journey might not go as smoothly.”He thought Chase might have some reaction after hearing this.However, Chase responded calmly, “It’s fine. I’ll just kill the Gilligans if they dare to go against me.”Chase’s tone was so calm as if it was something normal.Upon hearing this, Waylon shook his head.After all, the Gilligans were a prestigious ancient martial arts family, and it was rumored that they had a true master of martial arts watching over them. Master Collins’ words seemed a bit boastful.20 minutes later, they arrived at a large and ancient-looking estate. Waylon told him this was the headquarters of the Ancient Medicine Hall. The entranc
Chase looked in the direction of the sound and saw a man and a woman walking toward him with a look of surprise on their faces.It was Elena and Kevin. Their eyes were filled with disbelief as they looked at him. Chase had beat up Waylon’s son, Jordan, at the Dynasty Club last night.They thought Chase was done for, so they left early without even hesitating.However, they did not expect Chase to not only be unharmed but also show up at the Ancient Medicine Hall unscathed.“Chase, y-you’re fine!” Elena bit her lip in disbelief.She felt a little guilty. Her cousin asked her to take care of Chase, but she ran away with Kevin the night before, leaving Chase behind. “I’m fine. Don’t worry about me,” Chase replied indifferently. Elena could not help but ask, “Chase, can you tell me how you managed to get Jordan to spare you?”“No.” With that said, Chase walked away, showing no interest in continuing the conversation with them.Elena frowned, feeling somewhat displeased. Sh
Waylon ignored Jerry. After nodding to Chase, he turned and said to the old man on the main seat, “Mr. Gunther, this is Master Collins, the man I recommended to you just now.”The old man was sitting in a wheelchair, his face sickly pale. It seemed as if every breath was a challenge for him.He was Brad, the owner of the Ancient Medicine Hall and the Medicine King of Rochester. At the same time, he was also the auctioneer for this auction.Brad looked at Chase and frowned. “Are you sure this little boy can cure me?”Waylon was a little skeptical too, but he still braced himself and said, “Mr. Gunther, Master Collins knows medicine, so why not let him try?”He then looked at Chase and said, “I believe you know Mr. Gunther’s condition, right? Are you confident about this?”While Chase was about to say something, Jerry scoffed and said, “Mr. Gunther, he looks like he’s still in his diapers. How can he know medicine? Don’t be fooled.”“Mr. Jerry is right. There are a lot of people p
After Chase slapped him, Brad felt his brain buzz as if he had been struck by thunder.He was completely stunned.Everyone at the scene was also shocked by the slap.Damn, was he crazy? He was asked to cure Brad, but instead, he slapped him! They all had the same thought.Waylon came back to his senses before the others and shuddered. Immediately, his face turned white.Brad was the owner of the Ancient Medicine Hall and also the Medicine King of Rochester. A lot of big shots owed him favors, and even the Gilligans had to show him respect.Chase's farce had completely enraged him.Not only that, Waylon would also get dragged into this.Finally, Brad’s subordinate came back to his senses and yelled, “What do you think you’re doing?!”Chase lifted his hand again as if he did not hear the guy and slapped Brad on the head again.He hit Brad harder this time, the sound was loud and clear.Waylon thought, ‘Damn! He did it again!’He was about to cry.He started yelling interna
Jerry was the first to protest, “Mr. Gunther! The Centennial Blood Root belongs to the Gilligans! We'll do anything if you give it to us. Please reconsider.”“Mr. Gunther, I'm also after the Centennial Blood Root. I'm willing to buy it for one billion dollars.”“Mr. Gunther…”The others also clamored with their offers. They did not want to fall behind. Brad had to admit that he was tempted by their enticing proposals. However, when he met Chase's half-smile, he could only shake his head and say, “Everyone, I'm a man of my word. Since I’ve promised him, I must fulfill it.”At that moment, Woody came back with a sandalwood box. “It’s yours now, Doctor.” Brad handed the sandalwood box to Chase. Chase took it over and immediately opened the lid in front of everyone, revealing a blood-red herb root.When the crowd smelled the fragrance it emitted, they felt as if they had become ten years younger.Instantly, countless greedy eyes turned toward Chase.“Kid, you'll have a favor
Besides him, there were eight other people next to him. They were all martial monarchs who had strong and long-lasting auras. They were midway martial arts overlords.Such powerful people were considered top-notch fighters even in the Secret Sect. After all, only a handful of people in the martial domain had martial arts monarchs."I'll never surrender!" Quinn's pretty face was pale. She ran with all her might, and her skirt had turned bright red."If I'm right, that woman has something valuable on her.""Hahaha! Consider this my lucky day!"All of the martial artists shouted excitedly with lust in their eyes.It happened suddenly. Three flying daggers flew by and shot through the throats of three martial artists. They died horrible deaths instantly."Who is that?!""He's dead!"The rest of the martial artists were enraged.Chase was seen standing in the air at the next moment with a golden sword in his hand. Both his hands were behind his back as he stared coolly at the grou
He could not accept this! How could he?! The Secret Sect was supposed to be the official sect of Bactria! It was supposed to be a holy land for martial arts!"Tell me, where's the real location of the Secret Sect?" Chase crouched and stared calmly at Huck while asking.Huck clenched his teeth. "You're dead, you little bastard. How dare you offend the Secret Sect?! My father won't let you get away with this!""Oh?" Chase raised an eyebrow.He raised his hand and gave Huck a hard slap. The crisp sound of the slap echoed in the air, and Huck passed out right away. Chase would never be on the same side of the Secret Sect. He was not afraid of them either.His physique had long surpassed the standard of a martial monarch."Traveling millions of miles has not been a waste." Chase got up and turned to walk out of the restaurant."Hey, friend, wait a minute!" A middle-aged man blocked Chase's way."What do you want?" Chase frowned while asking."You've misunderstood me, young friend.
"How did they die if I didn't kill them?" Chase shook his head coolly. "These garbage are not worth a mention.""You… You're really cruel…" The plump woman shivered. There was fear in her pretty eyes. She had a different expectation of someone like Chase. Someone like him should be a gentleman. How could he be someone so cruel and vicious?"Who are you? Why did you kill the Secret Sect disciples?" someone roared. There was a coldness in the voice.A group of martial artists in black walked into the restaurant. A black-robed man was in the lead—Huck Brennan.Huck was standing outside the restaurant. He was surrounded by people, but none of them dared to get within three feet of him. There seemed to be an invisible wall around him that put a distance between him and the people. He intimidated the crowd.Behind Huck were several martial monarchs. Each of them was powerful in their respective abilities, especially the peak martial monarchs. They were very close to becoming extreme mar
"Unfortunately, you shouldn't have crossed me."Not long after he said this, he dealt a kick. He kicked one of the men at the waist with great strength. The man flew several yards away, his spine breaking from the kick.There was one last person left. He was extremely frightened and turned toward the deep alley to run."Huh?"Chase raised an eyebrow.That man was attempting to escape. Could he have sensed danger at that moment and enhanced his power based on a last-minute judgment, which helped him escape?"I've said before that none of you can leave!" Chase said coldly. He leaped up and moved with great agility. His legs strode in the air, and a kick whipped out at the head of a man who was trying to escape.The martial monarch flew off about a dozen feet from the impact. He crashed into a row of tables, and half of his face had caved in. All his teeth were crushed."What witchcraft is that?" The remaining person turned pale."You're not good enough to know anything!" Chase w
The dagger was pulled out, and blood splattered everywhere."You…" Vaughn was so shocked that his eyes widened."This guy… He has strong willpower…"The others took a sharp breath with a wary look in their eyes. That man had come to them of his own accord and allowed them to stab him in the shoulder with a dagger. If this were some other person, that person would be howling with pain.However, this man did not make a sound. He even used the pain from the stab to erupt with power."I'll kill you!" Vaughn roared as his muscles swelled up. Energy erupted all over him as he raised his hand to hit Chase viciously on the head.Chase raised his palm to block the attack. He used force with his wrist, and a crack was heard. Vaughn's arms were broken. After that, Chase crushed his throat and he lost the chance to even struggle from the grip.A human head rolled to the ground."That's vicious!" Shocked voices began discussing this.Everyone watched on.Chase wiped the remaining blood fr
Chase was more than a hundred miles away from the small town at the foot of the mountain. He moved at the speed of lightning to get there. When he finally arrived at the small town outside the valley, it was noontime.Many martial artists were gathered at the foot of the mountain. Corpses of the Secret Sect disciples were strewn all over the streets."Looks like many people barged into the valley to save others last night, but they ended up in a heated fight instead." Chase shook his head.Among the corpses were those who were wearing uniforms of Secret Sect disciples while others were in ordinary village clothes. Some had blood and dirt on them. They had clearly died not too long ago."Huh?"Chase's gaze fell onto the chest of a corpse. The height and body of the corpse were not usual. There was also a unique tattoo on its chest.Chase stared at it for a while, and he slowly frowned. "That's the tattoo of the Secret Sect!"He recognized the tattoo. It was the mark of the Secret
The man in black, who was the leader, grunted coldly. He pulled a saber from his waist and came attacking Chase."You're dead!"A murderous look shot out of Chase's eyes.Chase rushed forward with the speed of lightning. He was like a cheetah on the hunt and was soon fighting with the man in black. They had only just started fighting.An arm broke, and blood gushed out. The blood stained his chest, and he flew about three to four feet away.The man in black looked frightened. He could not believe it. He was a martial deity. How did he get defeated by garbage who was just a mere martial monarch?"How is this possible—"Before he could finish, Chase swept a vicious kick at him. He kicked the man right in the head. His brain exploded with blood and pieces of his brain matter splattering everywhere."Kill him!" The remaining people were angered. They came attacking Chase at the same time.Chase faced them coolly. He slaughtered them quickly as he moved around them like a phantom g
"Chase Collins?"Upon hearing his name, the expressions of the man and woman in green shifted dramatically."That's right, it's me," Chase replied coolly."How did you find us?" the man asked sharply.Chase scoffed without offering an explanation. It was clear they recognized him, so he saw no reason to waste his words."If you know me, then answer one question," Chase said, fixing his piercing gaze on the man. He spoke slowly, enunciating each word, "Where is she?"Quinn, Lyana, and his other sisters were his family. Their safety was paramount to him.The man's expression flickered between hesitation and uncertainty."I don't know what you're talking about," he finally said while shaking his head slowly."Heh, so you refuse to answer?" Chase's eyes narrowed sharply. "If that's the case, don't blame me for what happens next!"He raised his arm, and a brilliant silver light began to radiate from his palm.The man's face paled, and he quickly shouted, "Stop! I admit it! We k
Time slowly passed.Three hours later, a muffled sound resonated as the energy in Chase's body surged dramatically. His cultivation had advanced to the next stage of the martial monarch realm, and his vitality was brimming with unmatched strength."I've finally reached this stage of the martial monarch realm!"He exhaled deeply and stood up.After stabilizing his current progress, he resumed alchemy, intending to take advantage of his momentum to refine three more Spirit Gathering Pills.Half an hour later, the pills were complete.Chase swallowed one without hesitation. A surge of potent medicinal energy coursed through his body, refining his flesh and bones.A guttural growl escaped him as his pores opened, expelling impurities from his body like a coiling serpent. As time went on, the energy around Chase gradually stabilized, and his complexion regained its healthy glow."Phew... It's finally done," Chase murmured in relief. He then carefully stored the remaining two pills.
