This sudden exclamation silenced the originally heated atmosphere.At that moment, everyone went blank as they thought they had heard wrongly.Did that man just offer a dime for it?Who was so bold? How dare they stir trouble at the Quaid family’s auction!In an instant, countless eyes looked in the direction of the voice.Even Quinn was no exception.They saw a man wearing a bronze mask sitting not far away with his legs crossed. He was holding a cup of tea, gently swirling it in his hand as if he was not aware of the strange looks from everyone.“Where did you come from? How dare you go against the Quaid family?” Jacob immediately became furious.Tim narrowed his eyes and looked at the masked man with a gloomy expression. “Sir, do you dare repeat what you just said?”Instead of being angry, his heart was filled with infinite ecstasy.He thought to himself, ‘You finally couldn’t help but show up, orphan of Green Hills Orphanage!’“What's wrong? Is it too little?”Under the
“Go over there if you don’t want to die!” A young man in a suit pointed at the corner beside him, his face dark.For a moment, everyone was pushing and shoving each other as they crowded into the corner. They were scared that they would be implicated.Quinn stood still as people surrounded her. At the same time, she was staring at Chase, tears welling in her eyes.She wondered, ‘Rocky? Is that you?’She bit her lip tightly, wanting to step forward and remove the bronze mask from Chase’s face.“Miss Norris, let’s get out of here.” Elaine immediately dragged her to the corner when she saw that she was still motionless.Tim gave Chase a cold look and immediately gave an order, “Get him!”In a moment, a dozen burly men were seen attacking Chase without saying a word.They were all fighters the Quaid family had been training over the years. They were all desperadoes with blood on their hands.They were extremely fast and approached Chase in the blink of an eye.However, Chase just
“No!”When Tim felt the murderous intent from Chase’s eyes, he was so scared that he felt as if his soul was almost leaving his body. “Spare me! Please spare me! I had nothing to do with the fire back then.“Please, spare me. If you let me go, I'll be willing to testify against every bad thing my family has done.”Even though he was saying that, a small hint of rancor flashed across his eyes.He swore that if he could survive, he would tear Chase into pieces.“Nothing to do with you?” Chase chuckled, and he seemed to be poking fun at him. “Do you think I don’t know why you're hosting this auction? Do you think I don’t know you’re doing this to bait me?”“You…”Tim’s heart sank, and he was terrified. “You can’t kill me, or the Quaid family won’t spare you! My family is stronger than you imagine...”Before he could finish, he felt a cold sensation on his neck. In the next moment, he felt as if his entire world had turned upside down.He noticed his nephew, Jacob, was looking at
“Don’t worry, this is just the appetizer. Soon, I'll have the heads of all the Quaid family members neatly placed in front of your grave!”After saying this, he buried the heads and the emerald pendant in front of Gideon's grave. Once he was done, he also took off his bloody clothes and burned them in public before turning around and leaving.Not long after he left, a beautiful figure appeared in front of the tombstone. She was panting.As she looked at the empty cemetery, Quinn’s delicate body trembled and tears streamed down her face uncontrollably. “W-Where did he go? Isn’t he Rocky?”She fell heavily to the ground with her head pressed tightly against her legs. She felt very lonely.Suddenly, she smelled a faint smell of blood. When she looked up, she realized that the smell of blood was coming from the soil under her feet.Resisting the discomfort, she reached out her hands to claw at the dirt. Soon, a black bag appeared in her eyes.Quinn seemed to notice something and ope
“Miss Norris, don’t you know that the entirety of South River City is quaking in its boots right now?"Elaine continued with lingering fear, “After the Quaid family sent people to take away the bodies of Jacob and Tim, they immediately made a statement. They’re threatening to cut the murderer to pieces at all costs!“Now, both the underworld and law enforcers in South River City are looking for the man wearing the bronze mask.“I heard that many people who were still at the scene are now at the hands of the Quaid family. I think the family is hoping to get some clues from them. If I hadn’t escaped fast enough, I would probably be at their mercy now too…" “Is Chase among them?” Quinn asked, her expression slightly changing.“Let’s not talk about that good-for-nothing.”Elaine snorted coldly and said, “I saw him sneaking around just now on the way back. He probably sneaked away when the mysterious man wearing the bronze mask appeared.”Quinn secretly breathed a sigh of relief bef
Upon hearing this, Raymond, Anna, and the others immediately started licking his boots.“In that case, let’s go.” Henry waved his hand.They got into two cars and rushed toward the destination—Imperial Restaurant.Riley did not want to sit in the same car as Chase, so she got into Edward’s car.As a result, Chase had no choice but to sit in Henry’s car, but he seemed very indifferent to this.Inside Edward’s car, Raymond and Anna chose to sit in the back seat. They very wisely let Riley sit in the front passenger seat as she would then be the closest to Edward.“Edward, that country bumpkin is so annoying. We can’t go on like this,” Raymond blurted.“Yeah, Edward, that guy is so shameless. I feel sick when I see him.” Anna nodded immediately.The two of them did not shy from the topic even though Riley was in the car. After all, they knew that she did not like Chase.Edward was also very unhappy with Chase and immediately sneered. “Don’t worry, I'll let him know what it’s like
Soon, several burly men walked toward Edward and the others with unkind expressions.Everyone’s expressions changed.What was going on? Why did Mike seem to not recognize Edward’s Supreme Imperial Card?Edward was also frightened by the way things were going. “What are you doing? How dare you treat Supreme Imperial Card holders like this? I'll file a complaint against you with the Kingpin of South River City!”Bald Mike was about to kick the group out when he suddenly noticed Chase, who was standing behind Edward.At that moment, a violent shudder wracked his body. It was his card!Respect instantly flashed in Bald Mike’s eyes.After the incident with Daniel, Sam was worried that some of the people under his command would bump into Chase. Hence, he sent photos of Chase to the heads of all his industries and told them to treat Chase as if he were Sam himself. If anyone dared to go against Chase, Sam would kill whoever it was with no mercy.Recalling that, Bald Mike immediate
“Of course.”After that, Chase went into the restroom.After Mike watched him leave, he turned to tell the young man, “Tiger, take the most treasured wine of the restaurant to Mr. Collins’ private room.”The young man named Tiger was shocked. He asked with wide eyes, “Mr. Parson, that’s a Splendor Liquor from 1979. There are only 17 in the world, and each of them costs more than ten million!“You wasted so much effort to get this one bottle, and you’ve always treasured it. You wouldn't sell it to anyone no matter how much money they offered…”Bald Mike simply gave a slap across the face before saying, “Just do as you’re told. Stop blabbering.”As long as he could get on Mr. Collins’ good side, he was willing to give away wine that cost 100 million, let alone wine that cost ten million.The young man could only do as he was told while clutching his face.It did not take long for the waiters to serve countless sumptuous delicacies in a neat and orderly fashion. There was caviar
"Hmph! How dare third-rate garbage like you challenge the Martial Arts Alliance? You're asking for it!""To be honest, Quinn Norris is really pretty. She's as pretty as those socialites in Martial City!"A high-ranking group of the Martial Arts Alliance began discussing her openly."You're right. These women's flesh contains vast vitality. We'll be able to enhance the purity of our martial pathways if we get our hands on them.""Haha! Stop wasting time with them and let's get this done right now!" An old man in a black robe sniggered. He waved his arms around and suddenly swung dozens of punches in the air. These punches gathered into one strong gale of wind that gushed right at Quinn.Quinn was covered in blood. Her clothes were torn, and numerous wounds could be seen on her skin.Lyana's pretty face was pale. Blood dripped from her lips, but she clenched her teeth in determination as she refused to back down.Olivia was in slightly better condition than them. She had a thin sw
"I… I choose the latter!" Skrull's face turned pale. "You won't live to walk out of here if you kill me!"Chase shook his head. "You're not worth spending my time on. You should find someone better to tell all your secrets to."He flicked his fingers after that.A purple flame shot out and flew through Skrull's head. He was burned right on the spot. No traces of his body were left behind.This was a fight where the victor was apparent.Everyone was shocked into silence at the sight, and no one dared to make a sound. After all, anyone who could kill Skrull so easily was extremely powerful. Chase was too intimidating."You! Come here!" Chase suddenly grabbed someone.There was a rustle, and a martial artist hiding among the crowd was grabbed by the neck and dragged over."W-What do you want? I… I was wrong… Please have mercy!" The martial artist howled.Chase glanced at him. "I'm going to ask a few questions. Cooperate and I'll consider letting you live.""What do you want to k
"What's the problem with that?" Chase replied coldly."You…" The old man in gray clenched his teeth. He wanted to lunge forward at Chase for a fight to the death but realized both his legs had lost all feeling. He looked down.Chase had crushed his shoulder blade with one punch. It impacted all of his veins and caused his core to be destroyed. All his veins and bones were broken. He had become a maimed man."You're dead, you little bastard!" the man said viciously."Who are you?" Chase's eyes were cold."Hoho! I don't mind telling you. I'm the Enshrined of the Lacroix family, Skrull Lacroix!" Skrull was a mid-stage martial monarch and one of the martial monarchs belonging to the martial domain."The Lacroix family?" Chase frowned."They won't let you get away with this!" Skrull roared viciously. "The patriarch is a martial deity. His wrath will darken the skies and boil the seas! Give yourself up if you know what's good for you and we'll consider sparing your life. Otherwise, a
Chase slammed his palm down on the shoulder of the old man in the gray robe. The man's bone broke instantly. His arm exploded, and his flesh flew everywhere. His blood rained down.The old man screamed in pain with a look of fear on his face."My arm… Damn it! My arm!" the old man screamed."What are you waiting for? Get him! I want him dead!"Two remaining martial monarchs snapped out of it and went attacking Chase at the same time."Nothing but party tricks." Chase shook his head and kicked out at them.Both men did not manage to dodge in time. They flew backward from Chase's kick. Cracking sounds could be heard coming from them as their bones broke inch by inch. They bled from all orifices and fell limp to the ground, howling in pain."Yikes…"The surrounding spectators were shocked to see that.It took one meeting, and three martial monarchs were slaughtered without hesitation."Who is he?!""That man is too powerful!""Even martial monarchs can't take his attack. Could
"How dare a mere absolute martial monarch dare offend me?" Chase burst out with a laugh. He slapped the young man, and he fell rolling to the ground.After that, Chase punched him and destroyed his core."No!" the young man screamed."Chase Collins!" "How dare you?!"The remaining people exclaimed, and three of them immediately lunged forward to attack Chase. They were all late-stage martial monarchs.Powerhouses of such cultivation levels were not considered very powerful in the martial domain, but in the common world, they were considered superpowers. Normal martial arts organizations were not their match.The three men joined forces and surrounded Chase. If it were any other martial artist, this was a dangerous situation, but Chase was not afraid."Get lost!" Chase roared. He channeled true energy within him, which shot out in the form of a huge airwave. It shot out with great power.Deafening explosions followed, and the three martial monarchs' attacks were vanquished ins
Chase's combat skills were too sharp. He could sense the difference immediately and did not hesitate to initiate the attack. He made sure to go for the kill."Too bad." Chase shook his head and sighed. After that, he turned his gaze toward a forest not far away.He could sense a few hidden auras in that direction. Powerful figures seemed to be hiding in the dark, watching him.Chase's consciousness instantly sensed that group of people. He continued moving forward and headed straight to where they were.Seven figures immediately leaped out from the forest. All of them had weapons in their hands as they surrounded Chase."Did you kill Black Five?"All of them were in green shirts and had powerful auras. It was obvious that they came from the same organization. They were prepared to fight side-by-side and worked well together."Who's Black Five?" Chase wondered."Are you playing dumb?"One of them grunted coldly and said, "Are you trying to deny what you did after killing him in
Even the normal sword techniques Chase used were equivalent to a second or third-stage martial monarch's attack. There was no way a mere martial monarch could stop his attack.It did not matter if he was a martial monarch. This was considered an opportunity now that Chase was facing the situation.The look in his eyes burned with determination.A purplish-red flash glinted in his eye. He channeled the blood and energy in his body and tuned his true energy to peak performance. He moved both his palms and shot out hundreds of shadow fragments from them. The explosion was deafening to the ear.Every palm attack contained incredible power as they exploded in the air, causing the space to collapse. It swallowed the masked man in black.Thunderous explosions were heard everywhere.Chase's attack had the man cornered. Millions of incoming punches rendered him helpless to fight back, and nothing he did helped him.After a while, the punches stopped and vanished.Chase stood tall where
"A martial monarch can create huge waves with just a flip of a hand. They can do anything and are indestructible."Chase mumbled, "But… What does that have anything to do with me?" His voice was extremely cold. It was chilling.Chase had once looked forward to becoming an unbeatable powerhouse who took the world by storm, but reality was cold and cruel."Haha! Scared now, aren't you?" The masked man in the black robe began laughing tauntingly at him. "Get lost if you're scared or you'll end up losing your life.""You're wrong." Chase shook his head. "You're nothing but garbage to me. You're no better than an ant.""Still acting stubborn when you're about to die, huh?" The man was enraged.He vanished the next instant. His abilities were strange and unpredictable. Chase was unable to grasp his next move.It happened all of a sudden.The man attacked Chase from the back. He clawed at Chase from behind, his nails digging deep into Chase's skin. Blood gushed out from the wounds."
Not long after, Chase raised his hand to swing down his sword.Wyman could only watch as the sharp blade came down at him. His chest tightened. He could feel the threat of death.Just then, something happened to change this.A grayish-white figure suddenly lunged forward from a dark corner with a saber that clashed with the sword swinging down.Both weapons collided, and sparks flew with a loud clang.The old man in gray grunted as his arms tremored from the impact. His hand tore open, and blood splattered.Chase reacted while the old man was distracted. He moved his wrists and swung the sword around. It moved in a curved trajectory, slitting Wyman across the throat. Hot liquid gushed out from it.Wyman's eyes widened with disbelief. Everything happened too fast. He had been defeated in a blink of an eye. Wyman had been absolutely defeated.How did that happen?Chase was only a martial arts overlord. How did he burst out with such terrifying power?"You…" Wyman grabbed his ne
