Chapter 551

Author: Shrimp in Trouble Waters
Chase's gaze flickered. He stepped forward and asked, "I wonder what else would the elderly gentleman like?"

"I see you have some fine things on you, lad," said the old man as he raised an eyebrow. His hand was already reaching toward Chase's chest.

If it had been a woman touching Chase, he might have been somewhat happy about it. However, it was an old man caressing him now, which made the gesture both bizarre and odd.

Chase quickly grasped the old man's wrist. The skin felt somewhat slack, with just bones beneath.

"May I know what you mean by this?" Chase pursed his lips and fixed his gaze on the old man.

The old man suddenly chuckled. "In our bar, if you seek something, you must give something in return. How about leaving this item with me?"

He pointed at a spot on Chase's chest, right where the fire crystal was nestled in his embrace.

"It seems you know what this is?"

Once he released his hand, Chase felt a chill in his palm. After all, he was not holding a beautiful woman,

    Kaden had pursued Enola before, but he lost interest after getting verbally thrashed by her. She was clearly in a bad mood, so why would he go over there to get snubbed by her again?"Well, if you're not going, then I will."Why on earth was he so fierce? The debauched man adjusted his clothing, sauntered over to Enola, and asked in a suave manner, "Pretty lady, may I invite you for a drink?"Enola raised her eyes to look at the person who had come over and squinted her eyes. Although Enola was drunk, she could still see the person in front of her. She spat out just a word, "Scram."As if he had not heard her, the debauched man simply took a seat next to her."Drinking alone is so boring. Isn't it better to have company?"After fumbling around on the table, Enola finally grabbed an empty bottle and raised it to smash it on the debauched man's head.However, her vision was blurry. It multiplied his image and made it impossible to pinpoint his exact location."Miss, have you had

    There was a hotel adjacent to the bar.Enola slowly woke up. Touching the hotel's white sheets, she wondered where she was. She rolled over and jumped out of bed.As she looked around, she noticed a bathroom in the room. Someone was showering as there were sounds of water splashing coming from the inside.She remembered being at the bar drinking just moments ago. How did she end up here?She checked herself, relieved to find her clothes intact and nothing amiss. Enola breathed a sigh of relief and was about to leave.Just as she reached the door, the bathroom door opened, revealing Kaden with just a towel wrapped around his lower half. He was drying his wet hair as he said, "Where do you think you're going?""Kaden? It’s you—don't come any closer!" Enola turned and tried to pull the door handle.However, she was too slow. The person behind her had already rushed up and grabbed her. Suddenly, the world turned upside down, and she was thrown onto the bed.Like an angered little b

    Chase was trampling on Kaden's dignity, and it was in front of the woman Kaden fancied too. He had planned to force himself on Enola. He believed that if he treated her well afterward, Enola might overlook it. Yet now, not only had his plan failed, but he had also been caught.He felt completely humiliated! No matter how much he struggled, he still couldn't free himself. Kaden breathed heavily through his nostrils, and his neck veins were bulging with rage."He almost took advantage of me just now." Enola spat on the ground. She still felt a little sick. She wanted nothing more than to leave and never see Kaden again, so she pulled Chase along. "Let's go.""Okay." Chase lifted his foot and walked away with Enola. They passed the back door of the bar again.This place was most definitely eerie, but Chase could not quite pinpoint why. The old bartender from earlier was now sitting on a broken stool with a wooden table in front of him."So, you found her?" the old man asked with co

    "There are so many customers inside the bar. There's no need for them to bear witness to a bloodbath. This alley is much better as it's very secluded. I can guarantee no one will notice the quiet disappearance of two people," the old man threatened."How dare you?! Do you know who I am?" Enola suddenly jumped out. She then not only revealed her identity as a celebrity but also mentioned her connection to the Langdon family."So you'd better be sensible and not offend someone you shouldn't," she added."Oh?" The old man chuckled as if he had heard a funny joke. "Young lady, do I look like someone who hasn't met a celebrity before? You can tell that my bar is rather secretive, can't you?""That's..." Enola was speechless for a moment. As panic became evident in her eyes, she started stepping back. "Don't worry. Since you're from the Langdon family, of course, we won't touch you. But..." The old man's gaze suddenly shifted to Chase, and he smiled ominously."If this young man keeps

    "So, did you call this old man here too?" Chase asked."Let him go now. It's not just between you two anymore; it's between you and the entire Chitara underworld!" Seeing that Chase had knocked down dozens of people, the old man also rose from his stool. He was ready to intervene."Old man, you should act your age and live out your years quietly. Getting involved in fighting and killing isn't advisable!" Seeing this, Chase kicked Dominic away from under his foot."Young man, just because you've learned a bit of fighting skills, you think you can act recklessly? Today, I'll show you your place in this world!"The old man leaped from where he stood. A dagger gleamed coldly in his hand, aiming straight for Chase.Clearly, the old man had the intention to kill.Seeing the old man's ruthless attack, Chase did not hold back, not even in front of Enola.He immediately shot out a sword aura from his fingertip."You're the one who should know your place!"With a blast of sword aura, Ch

    "Asher?"Chase called out, snapping Asher back to reality. Then, he asked, "What kind of magic is this?" Chase did not explain. Instead, they continued filming in the forest, executing various aerial maneuvers with the help of harnesses."Look, someone is flying in the sky!""Are you dumb? Don't you see the thick wires behind those people? It's obvious that a film crew is shooting here!"As the sun rose higher, more tourists arrived in the forest. Seeing the film crew, many stopped to watch. Gradually, people noticed that one handsome young man had no visible wires supporting him."That person doesn't seem to be wearing a harness.""Where, where?""There!"As the crowd pointed him out, many noticed Chase.Among the tree branches, Chase appeared to float effortlessly in mid-air. Soon, this became a hot topic online, accompanied by numerous high-definition videos."Breaking news! A film crew actually hired a real immortal being!""Breaking news! There are real immortal being

    As Enzo passed through the outer hall, he spotted several figures from Chitara that he had only seen in newspapers, including the city's mayor. The fact that they were seated outside suggested the caliber of those seated inside.Enzo was so nervous he dared not look around too much.In contrast to Enzo's tense demeanor, Chase sat down calmly, his gaze sweeping casually around the room. He seemed somewhat amused.Many in the hall saw the two of them but paid them no mind.After all, members of the four great ancient martial arts families were well-acquainted with each other. Seeing as these two were not familiar faces, they were easily disregarded."Madam Huntington has arrived!" the doorman announced in the inner hall.The next second, a beautiful woman made her entrance."Greetings to Madam Huntington!" many in the inner hall greeted in unison."Please be seated," the beautiful woman casually said as she headed toward the section where the Huntington family's disciples were se

    "I, Damian Powell, present a 300-year-old polygonum multiflorum root on behalf of the Powell family. We wish Master Chester good health and a long life!" he declared."My goodness, a 300-year-old polygonum multiflorum! Such a treasure is rare in this world, and the Powell family actually brought it out," remarked another attendee."It's said that polygonum multiflorum older than 300 years has life-extending properties. That’s a big move. They're beyond generous!"The crowd exclaimed in amazement. Their curiosity was piqued about whether the Powell family had more in stock, leading many to inquire."The Cook family is willing to pay for a 300-year-old polygonum multiflorum root!""The Powell family is also interested. Name your terms!"...No one in this world would complain about extending one's lifespan. The three family heads got up to speak to the young man."Alright, you two old folks. This matter isn’t urgent at this moment. Discuss it privately later," Chester intervened

    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

    "Pfft, what Saints or Saintesses? They're just titles. They don't have any real skills to speak of!""Exactly. These so-called Saints who suddenly emerged probably got their status through shady means. The moment they enter a duel, their real strength shows."Amid the chorus of cheers and congratulations, a few jarring voices remained, and one of them was Rania's. Although she was a social climber herself, hearing the crowd ridicule Clive after his defeat made her deeply uncomfortable."That's not true. Clive is not like that," she repeated again and again. Those were the only words she could manage.Several in the crowd recognized her as the one who accepted a gift from Clive earlier and began to mock her."She's the perfect example of a shallow woman. The moment she accepts a gift, she loses her sense of judgment. It's pathetic.""Right? The truth is right in front of her—Clive is just a big show-off with no real skills. And yet she keeps lying to herself.""Hmph. They really a

    Later, a certain senior of the sect discovered a secret technique of the Nefarious Spirits.It was to meditate on the image of a divine beast or an overwhelmingly powerful immortal being the embodiment of one's soul. As the level of visualization deepened, one's spiritual soul strength would grow accordingly.This method of cultivating Nefarious Spirits was a hybrid of corpse refining and body cultivation.However, while corpse and body cultivation focused on physical bodies, Nefarious Spirits cultivation trained the intangible—the spiritual consciousness and the mind and soul.After this discovery, they even improved the methods of refining corpses and bodies using it.When refining the body, practitioners would visualize fierce beasts like bears or wolves or celestial warriors, generals, and even gods. The subjects of their visualizations would match with their nature and temperament, making them their own Nefarious Spirits.Fallon's Nefarious Spirit was an ancient giant ape. It

    As for Fallon and Carla on the high platform, they clearly sensed that the ominous gaze from above had lessened significantly.Clive, who was facing Chase directly, also felt that his seemingly unstoppable sword strike had suddenly stalled in front of Chase. It could not push forward any further. This shocked him greatly.After all, even when sparring with his own master, he had never encountered this sensation. His master had even praised him for his good fortune after obtaining a peerless sword and for mastering a sword technique unparalleled in this generation. If not for the looming limit of his life span and the need to break through to gain more years, his master would have wanted to cultivate that technique himself.This sword strike, which Clive considered to be the culmination of all his understanding of the sword path, was the most perfect attack he had ever executed since beginning his cultivation journey.Even so, this nameless opponent had forced it back with a single
