"Who told you I'm a stage-six marquis of martial arts?" Chase stared coldly at the figure in front of him as he asked with indifference.Just as the dark figure got cautious, Chase attacked him with another palm attack. He held the Dragon Abyss Sword in his hand and slashed at the throat of the dark figure with a backhand.A bloody gash appeared on the dark figure's throat.The dark figure grabbed his slit throat. He looked like he wanted to say something, but his windpipe had been slashed and he could not say a word.He stared at Chase and fell to the ground."Hmph! You're just a stage-seven marquis of martial arts, yet you're brazen enough to come after me. You deserve death!" Chase said with a cold look at the corpse.Even though the dark figure did not emanate any aura throughout, Chase had assumed that he was a martial lord powerhouse. It was only when the dark figure caught up to Chase that he realized the man was only a stage-seven marquis of martial arts assassin. That wa
He aimed his palm straight at Chase's face.Chase had to react quickly, and he met the attack with his palm as well.True energy flowed between them, and Chase flew backward from the impact of the attack. He crashed through several walls and smashed all the windows of the boxing gym.Another martial lord!Chase was shocked.No one but a martial lord could attack him with such a powerful impact.Chase watched as the entire boxing gym fell into ruins because of their palm attack. Fortunately, it was night and there was no one inside. Even though Fenton was hurt, he was still alive. Chase flew into the sky with a burst of energy."Where do you think you're going?!" Albus flew up as well as he went after Chase.They flew past a high-rise building and went up several miles into the air. That was when Albus sped up and stopped Chase."Don't worry. Bactria has a rule that says powerhouses like us aren't allowed to kill ordinary civilians. I know my boundaries even if you didn't fly u
" I heard that Chase Collins is suspected to be a descendant of the Collinses. Should we…?"A martial lord asked the question."Forget about it. It's just a rumor. Even if it were true, you would risk making an enemy out of the Martial Soul Hall."Another martial lord was cautious about this."You're right. It's the Martial Soul Hall, after all."…In a mysterious location in Capital City, a figure barged into an office."Bad news, sir!"Two old men were in deep discussion inside the office. The tea on their table was still hot. They looked at the man who barged in.One of the old men looked up and picked up the cup on the table. He took a sip of tea before saying, "How many times have I told you not to always act so anxiously, Scott? You have to be calmer."The figure who barged into the room was Scott.Scott regained his composure when he got scolded and said calmly, "Chase Collins is in Capital City, Mr. Cloves. He's fighting with someone in the air!""What? Who is he fi
Chase wondered how to explain this.That was when an aircraft came flying toward them. It got closer to them, and a loud frequency was heard."Fighting is not allowed within the borders of Bactria. Please leave immediately!"It was an unbelievable sight. There was a sea of cultivators standing in the sky while a battle aircraft was at the side trying to stop a fight.Chase was flabbergasted to see such a sight.Albus ignored the aircraft and formed into a shadow remnant once more as he sped toward Chase.Gareth was standing in front of an LCD monitor. It was screening the picture of Albus, Chase, and the cultivators surrounding them. When Albus ignored the warning, he said angrily, "Connect me to the loudspeaker.""Yes, sir!""Stop!"Gareth's elderly voice was heard coming from the aircraft.Albus paused when heard the voice, but he decided to continue his attack on Chase after that. He was the chief hall master of the Martial Soul Hall, and he was using all the true energy
In the CEO’s office of Blizzard Group in South River City, Quinn Norris’ eyes widened as she looked at the young man in front of her in disbelief. “What did you just say? You’re my fiancé?”“That’s right. Your grandfather promised your hand to me three years ago. This is the agreement. Read it for yourself.”The young man’s name was Chase Collins. He took out a marriage agreement and passed it to Quinn.Quinn wanted to die when she finished reading the agreement.She was sure that the agreement was real because it was the writing of her grandfather, Charles Norris. It was even stamped with his personal seal.Quinn took a deep breath. Her expression was cold as she asked, “Your name is Chase Collins?”“That’s right.Chase nodded. He could not help but stare at her.She had a beautiful face and nice, fair skin. Even though she looked tense all the time, she could still easily mesmerize men around her.Quinn was wearing business attire, which accentuated her voluptuous body, espe
Quinn stared straight at Chase. There was an arrogant look on her face.Her secretary, Elaine Parker, looked at Chase in disdain. How could a penniless man like him be good enough for their CEO?“Sure.”Chase replied nonchalantly, “Although, that won’t be up to you to decide. This marriage was decided by your grandfather. You can wait until I’ve cured your grandfather so he can dissolve this marriage personally. If he's willing to do so, I will honor his decision.”Quinn felt even more disdain for him when she saw him refusing to give up. “I’ll be in charge of my own marriage. Also, I’ll figure out my grandfather’s situation. There is no need for you to worry about it.”She quickly scribbled on a check. “Here's a check for five million. If you’re willing to dissolve the marriage between us, this money is yours.“Five million is nothing to me, but for those in the lower tier of society like you, it’s enough for you to survive your entire life. I believe you won’t reject my offer.”
Half an hour later, Chase found the Turners’ Residence according to the address given to him by the old man.Henry Turner, who was close to 50, smiled as he finished reading the letter given to him inside the living room. “It’s true. It’s the writing of that esteemed man.”“Now do you believe who I am, Uncle Henry?”Chase asked, “The old man told me that you asked for his help right before he died. He requested that I protect your family. Can you tell me what happened?”Henry sighed. “It’s like this, Chase. A business competitor wrote me a letter anonymously to tell me that he would kidnap my daughter.“I’ve hired five bodyguards for her, but she has been spoiled by me since young. All five of them have been chased off by her.“After giving this thorough consideration, I decided to ask for your master’s help.”Henry smiled at Chase. “Your master has given me the solution in the letter you brought me. You need to be my daughter’s fiancé. That will give you a good reason to protec
“If that’s what you think, you can go ahead and buy what you need on your own.” Riley left after saying this coldly to Chase.Chase shrugged and walked away to hail a taxi by the road. “Take me to Emgrand Group.”Riley entered a Starbucks and sat down. The more she thought about it, the angrier she was. She took out her phone and sent a message to her chat group: [This sucks! This really sucks!]There were only five people in the chat group, and they were all colleagues who got along with Riley.It was not long before a woman named Anna Clayton replied to her message: [What’s wrong, Riley? Who upset you this time?][My dad found some random country bumpkin and made him my fiancé.] Riley finally found someone she could vent to.[What?][Woah! Are you for real?]The group chat immediately became active.[Why would I lie to you?]Riley typed angrily: [The worst thing about this is that my dad is making me get him a job at our company. My dad claims that it would be easier for hi
