Edward sniggered. “What else could the reason be? Do you think it’s because of you?”

Chase replied seriously, “Of course, it’s because of me. He’s my subordinate.”

Edward was taken aback to hear that. Even Henry and the others were astonished.

“What did you just say?” Edward thought he had heard wrong. He scratched his ear and asked, “Did you just say that the Kingpin is your subordinate?”

“Yes, I did.” Chase nodded.

“Pfft!”

Edward burst out laughing. “Oh no, I can’t take it anymore. Hahaha! This is too funny.”

“Uncle Henry, Riley, did you hear that? He actually claims that the Kingpin is his subordinate. I’ve seen people exaggerate, but this is the first time I’ve seen someone go to such an extent.”

Edward clutched his stomach and laughed until he was bent over. He might just die from laughing until he was out of breath.

Even Laura was laughing. “Ignorant thing. You really know how to blow your own horn. If the Kingpin was your subordinate, I'd be the godmother of the world's

    Chase immediately headed to the nearest shop to get some candles and flowers.It had been a full 12 years since the fire at the orphanage and the deaths of the orphanage director and other orphans.Half an hour later in the middle of the cemetery of General Hills Cemetery Zone B, there was only dead silence. It was a lonely atmosphere. A young woman was kneeling in front of a grave while sobbing. “Grandpa Gideon, it’s your death anniversary today. I’m here to see all of you again.”There were seven candles in front of her.“I’m sorry that I’m useless. I couldn’t find Little Rocky or my other six sisters. I couldn’t even avenge all of you.“I hate the Quaids. They destroyed everything and killed all of you. There was never a moment when I didn't think about revenge in the past 12 years, but I really have no idea how to do it.“Grandpa Gideon, the Quaids are auctioning the piece of emerald pendant you were helping Little Rocky safeguard. Don’t worry, I won’t allow the emerald penda

    Elaine was inside the car parked at the foot of General Hills Cemetery where the town was. She kept checking the time and looking out once in a while.Not long after, Quinn got into the car.“Are you alright, Miss Norris? Why are your eyes so red?” Elaine could not help asking.“I’m fine.”Quinn rubbed her eyes quickly and forced a smile. “I think sand might have gotten into my eyes.”She changed the topic. “By the way, when will the Quaids’ auction start?”“In less than half an hour,” Elaine quickly updated.“Let’s go.”Quinn instructed.Elaine was about to start the car when they saw someone coming from afar.It was Chase.Elaine was the first one to call out, “Chase Collins.”Quinn was slightly surprised and quickly rolled down the window to stare at him coldly.Chase, who had just come down from General Hills Cemetery, turned to look. There was a look of exasperation on his face as he said, “My dear Miss Norris, South River may just be a city, but it’s not that small.

    The sound rang clear, and there was a healthy bounce to her butt.Jacob was stunned, Quinn was stunned, and even Elaine, who was at the side, was stunned.Quinn felt like she had just been struck by lightning, and she began to tremble. Her neck turned red, and the color spread all the way to her ears.This jerk had… smacked her there in public!Shock, fury, humiliation, disbelief—all these emotions overwhelmed her at the same time.She held back the urge to tear Chase apart and forced a stiff smile on her face as she said, “That’s right. This is the reason you should give up on me, Jacob.”After that, she quietly reached out to pinch Chase on the arm. She twisted his flesh viciously in a 360-degree turn.Quinn used every ounce of strength she had, but Chase did not seem to be affected as he looked normal as usual.“No! I don’t believe this!”Jacob roared, and his face turned dark as he said, “Tell me, Quinn, how is this guy better than I am?”“Simple. I have huge junk, and I

    Jacob thought Chase was scared, and he got even more confident. “That’s right. I bet you’re scared right now. Just kneel in front of me and let me enjoy Quinn for a few days, and I promise to let you off. What do you think?”“You’re despicable!”Quinn trembled with anger. Even then, she felt helpless.The Quaids were a wealthy and influential family in South River City. Their power was on par with the Norrises.Unfortunately, her grandfather was currently unconscious because of his ALS, and the Norrises began to deteriorate while the Quaids took over their position in the hierarchy.This was because Quinn did not dare cross any lines and offend Jacob despite being constantly harassed. Chase suddenly raised his hand and slapped Jacob.Half of Jacob’s cheek swelled, and a few of his teeth were broken as blood and teeth flew out of his mouth.“You bastard. You… You…” Jacob covered his cheek with his hand and stared at Chase with his mouth full of blood. He initially looked shocke

    She was disappointed.“Miss Norris, we’d better leave right now,” Elaine insisted.Quinn looked at Chase and struggled with the decision. In the end, she decided, “No, I’m not leaving!”This started because of her, and she could not leave Chase behind so irresponsibly.Moreover, Chase was her fiancé in name.Ten minutes passed by very soon, and a deep voice could be heard coming from afar, “Who dares cross the Quaids?”An old man in a suit led dozens of bodyguards toward their direction ferociously. The old man looked distant and cold, but his eyes were as sharp as an eagle’s. It was scary to look him in the eye.He was the butler of the Quaids, Dean Quaid!There were dozens of bodyguards behind him. All of them had cold eyes and looked murderous.“Uncle Dean, this is the guy who hit me.” When Jacob saw someone coming to his rescue, he quickly pointed at Chase.“Hahaha, the Quaids are here, bastard. Let’s see how you’ll suffer now.“You’re pretty stupid to make me call and

    “Yes, Mr. Quaid!”Dozens of bodyguards came attacking in an instant. They did not say anything else and immediately surrounded Chase.These people had style but no substance.Chase looked at them with disdain and was about to fight them.It was at that moment when a dainty voice shouted, “Stop what you’re doing!”The next moment, a woman in uniform approached them with seven or eight men who were wearing the same uniform.The woman in uniform strode forward with long, slender legs. She said with a cold and sharp expression, “How dare all of you fight like this in broad daylight?!”“Mandy.” Quinn looked delighted.The woman nodded at her before turning to Chase. The sight of him angered her. “I remember your name is Chase Collins. What’s wrong with you? Nothing good happens every time I bump into you.“When you were caught the last time, you were lectured for half the day for possessing illegal weapons. This time, you’re fighting in public. Are you itching for me to arrest you?

    “Besides, the Quaids will be having an auction very soon, and I need to bring my men over to watch over the event. Once it’s over, we’ll find another opportunity to kill him.”Dean looked at Jacob like he was stupid. If not for the fact that Jacob was a son of the Quaids, he would have slapped him good.Jacob finally looked happy when he heard that. He laughed viciously. “Alright. I’ll make sure to torture him once the auction is over.”“There’s also that bitch, Quinn. I want her under me in bed. I’ll make sure to enjoy her until I’m completely done with her.” There was excitement in his eyes. He could not wait for it.Dean shook his head at this.What a stupid man. Jacob was limited to such thoughts, and it would be difficult for him to achieve anything big.…Sovereign Hotel was one of the top five-star hotels in South River City. Many powerful and respected people frequented this hotel because this was one of the Quaids' assets.Today, the Quaids were auctioning a piece of

    A middle-aged man wearing a suit was watching the surveillance and saw Chase eating. Then, he turned his head to ask Jacob, “Is that the guy who beat you up?”That was the third son of the Quaid family, Tim Quaid. He was also the person in charge of the auction.“Yes, Uncle Tim!” Jacob gritted his teeth as he spat out the words with hatred.“That kid is so bold. How dare he beat you up and pig out in our territory?”Tim laughed angrily.Dean quickly said, “Mr. Tim, I’ll get someone to teach that kid a lesson.”“No need.”Tim shook his head and continued, “The auction is important, so we need to keep an eye on things. You must pay close attention to anyone who looks suspicious.”“Uncle Tim, everyone knows we’re hosting the auction. Do you think anyone will dare to come cause a scene?” Jacob asked subconsciously.“You fool, what do you know?!” Tim scolded him before adding, “The auction is just a bait.”Bait?Both Jacob and Dean were stunned.As he looked into their eyes, Tim

    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.

    "The rarer the spiritual herb, the greater its potency. For refining a Spirit Gathering Pill, the primary ingredient is the Three-Striped Purple Sun Herb. In addition to that, six supplementary herbs are needed. If I gather them all, it should be enough," Chase mused before forming a plan."My body has been tempered to a considerable degree. Refining a batch of Spirit Gathering Pills shouldn't pose much of a problem," he said with a confident smile.'Alchemy is indeed effective, but the mental energy it consumes is enormous. At my current state, I can refine, at most, five pills a day. Still, even five Spirit Gathering Pills a day is an incredible fortune,' Chase thought with satisfaction.With that in mind, he sat cross-legged, retrieved his pill furnace and the required herbs, and followed the instructions in the Emperor's Alchemy Codex to begin refining.Everything went smoothly.In just a short while, a perfectly round and glistening Spirit Gathering Pill was produced."This

    Moments later, silence settled over the area.Chase rose from the ground and dusted himself off."Huh? Did I just break through?"He suddenly realized that his strength had increased yet again. The sensation was peculiar but unmistakable—his cultivation had advanced to another level.'No matter. I need to leave first,' he thought.Chase turned and began to walk away. Just as he was about to leave, he stopped abruptly."Hmm?" His brows furrowed together as he detected an unusual fluctuation in the surrounding energy. He paused, tilting his head and focusing his senses.After a moment, he opened his eyes and smirked coldly. Through his heightened perception, he had noticed someone—a small fry—spying on him."Haha, you little brat, I've finally caught you!"A sinister laugh echoed, and a man dressed in black battle attire emerged. His expression was twisted with rage.Meanwhile, his eyes locked onto Chase, and they were brimming with killing intent."You killed my senior, Kit L

    A sharp burst of sword energy tore through the air, instantly shattering the purple fire meteor and continuing its relentless trajectory toward the elder."Impossible!" The elder's face twisted in terror.Chase's strike had not only destroyed the fire meteor but also left the elder defenseless against its force. Did this mean he could not even withstand a single move from Chase?"Impressive. A late-stage martial monarch like you truly lives up to your reputation," Chase remarked while nodding slightly. However, this time felt different from his previous battles.During his clash with the Lacroix family, he had been forced to his limits, relying on forbidden techniques and risking his life to achieve victory.Yet now, as Chase unleashed his full power, he felt the energy within his core surging like an unstoppable river, faster and more refined than ever before.His core had evolved into an energy pool, and his body was tempered and strengthened. Every fiber of his being pulsed wi

    Suddenly, the void rippled as if disturbed by waves. Two large doors materialized and slowly opened. A hunched old man in gray robes stepped out from within, leaning on a cane. His presence exuded an air of ancient decay and twilight.Chase's gaze sharpened as he observed the elder."A stage-nine martial monarch," Chase murmured, his tone laced with surprise.The elder's appearance puzzled Chase. He had no recollection of this figure, only a faint impression of his withered and sunken face."Youth is a precious gift. To reach the early martial monarch stage at such a young age is extraordinary. If you're willing, join me, and I'll accept you as my disciple," the elder said as his gentle eyes rested on Chase.The elder's voice was calm and reassuring, as though he had long been acquainted with Chase."Apologies, but I'm not interested in joining any sect or faction," Chase replied flatly.Martial deity-level opponents did not concern him; he could fight them head-on. However, m

    Blood sprayed through the air, painting it red. The man let out a pained scream as he staggered backward.However, Chase gave him no chance to escape. With Phantom Nine Steps, Chase closed the gap instantly. Swinging his left hand, he released the Slay Immortal Blade, which arced gracefully through the air.Blood erupted as the blade sliced clean through the man's neck. His head flew into the air, spinning before crashing to the ground.Chase extended his tongue and licked his finger, his cold, indifferent gaze locked on the lifeless body."Did you really think I'd be easy to bully?" he muttered.Without sparing another glance, Chase stepped forward.Along his path, corpses littered the ground—each one belonging to Secret Sect elders or martial masters. They were all killed with a single, decisive strike.Chase moved with ruthless efficiency, and his strikes were swift and lethal. Before long, he reached the vicinity of the library.His piercing gaze seemed to cut through all o

    "Additionally, this Secret Sect Library contains numerous precious texts, including manuals on artifact refinement, alchemy, swordsmanship, and even divine martial arts techniques," the old woman explained slowly. "These are the very foundations that sustain a martial sect's existence."'So, that's it! No wonder the people of the Secret Sect are so eager to target me!' Chase realized.Martial techniques, divine abilities, cultivation methods, treasures—Secret Sect disciples who lacked talent could only choose techniques suited to their abilities, limiting their progress to higher levels of cultivation.Only through great fortune or direct inheritance could one hope to obtain advanced techniques and divine abilities. The Secret Sect was structured around this principle, fully aware of the limitations of their methods."You Secret Sect people are far too greedy, daring to set your sights on me!" Chase's anger surged.The sheer value of these cultivation texts was unimaginable. A sin
