Chase immediately knew why Scott looked so messed up when he heard Scott's reply.It was no wonder Scott was reluctant to crush the wood token Chase had given him.However, Chase made no mention of it. He was curious why these people, who were supposed to go their separate ways, suddenly chose to move together as a group. Chase wondered about this and asked Scott about it."Why would they suddenly decide to work in groups?""It's because someone already achieved a breakthrough to become a martial lord of martial arts before I did! Damn it! If I had managed to get the Breakthrough Pill that day, I might have successfully achieved a breakthrough too!" Scott clenched his teeth. He was still feeling regret over the Breakthrough Pill at the auction."Who achieved the breakthrough?""There are three martial lord powerhouses in the sect faction now. Due to the pressure, those from Capital City's Eight Influential Families were forced to stand together. I heard they have two martial lo
Three of them led the sect faction to watch this at the side. None of them spoke, and they watched all of this unfold with amusement.There were a few familiar faces among them. Chase could see Bo, Immanuel, and Leia among them.It was clear that the sects were not intimidated by anyone, regardless if the person was a representative of Bactria or from one of Capital City's influential families."I'm guaranteeing that he's from Bactria with my name and status on the line!" Scott continued saying while trying to fight off Everett's power that was suppressing him."Hmph! He's nothing but a coward. You'd better tell us the truth and reveal his identity, Scott," Everett continued pushing."I've already given my guarantee with my reputation on the line, Everett! What else do you want?"Scott was angered. If this was Bactria, his status would be able to take him places.However, they were now in the secret realm, and Scott's status had been greatly discounted."I've already given you
Everett looked arrogant. He was now a martial lord, so there was no way he would allow a marquis of martial arts like Chase to get away from him.The best way to regain his dignity was by killing Chase in front of everyone present.However, Kingston's words might have taken effect.When Everett walked past Kingston, another figure blocked in front of him."You're going overboard, Everett!" A cold voice spoke up, and even Everett stopped when he heard the voice.He looked at the figure in front of him. Everett looked unhappy but still did not want to give up. He spoke up once more, "Even you're stopping me, Skate? Don't you have a grudge against him too? You should be happy to see me help you kill him. Why would you do this?""He's Skate Hawkins!""Who's Skate Hakwins?""He's an elite from Capital City's Hawkins family. I heard that he has been cultivating in the Hawkins' secret realm. Looks like he must be the other hidden martial lord powerhouse from Capital City's Eight Influ
"I was thinking of letting the rest of you handle the two martial lords while the three of us try to stall the pavilion master of Shadow Pavilion. We'll open a path for the rest of us to try and take over the formation." Apollo told them his plan.They contemplated it."That's risky. If all five of us martial lords end up being held back by those martial lords, the secret realm's formation might end up in one of these people's hands. We'll just be offering it up to them on a silver platter."Everett was the first to bring this up.The Coopers had come fully prepared for this trip to the secret realm. They had to get the ownership. He would never give it up to another person.While Everett objected to this, the others stayed silent.However, they continued discussing this by transmitting their voices.Chase sat in a far corner and was quite helpless in this situation."Can you hear what they're saying, sir?"Chase asked Lucas."It's not difficult to listen in to them," Lucas
Inside South Monarch Manor of Capital City, two pretty women were busy preparing all sorts of ingredients.They were Bianca and Quinn. Chase had been gone for more than ten days since entering the secret realm, and there was no news of him. Both of them were not worried as all the others who entered the realm with him had not returned either. They heard that they would be in the secret realm for 15 days.It was the last day tomorrow. They were staying at this house that Chase had bought before he entered the secret realm to quietly wait for his return. The days had been peaceful.They had not left the house for the past few days, and Quinn finally named the house after the property agent, Chet, came around to ask about it. Quinn took the word 'South' from South River City and finally named the house South Monarch Manor.A signboard was made for the manor with the name sprayed in gold and put up. After that, more people seemed to gather outside the door in the next few days.Quinn
"The owner of this manor is out. If you have anything to say, just wait until he returns."Bianca did not want to waste time with Pablo and turned to close the door.However, Pablo gave his bodyguards a look, and a few of them forced the door open.They attempted to barge into the manor."What are you doing? This is private property! I'll call the police to arrest all of you!" Bianca glared at them angrily. She was furious at what they were doing."Call the police? Well, you can only call them if you have a chance to do so."Pablo acted even more arrogantly when he found out the owner was not here."Even though the Lassiters aren't at the top of the list of influential families, we're still considered quite well-to-do. Bianca Cooper, is it? Be with me and I guarantee you fame and fortune.""Get out!" she shouted at Pablo."You forced me into this. Take her back with us," Pablo ordered. His bodyguards headed straight for Bianca.It was not the first time Pablo had done somethi
"Talk! Who told you to come here?"Quinn knew the man before her could not be the mastermind behind this. It was someone else, so she started to interrogate him."I'll talk, I'll talk! Don't kill me. The Hawkinses sent me here."Pablo did not dare to hide anything and revealed the mastermind behind this."Which Hawkins family are you talking about?" Quinn asked."It's the Hawkins family from Capital City's Eight Influential Families. Please don't kill me. I'm just a lapdog working for them. Have mercy," Pablo quickly begged for his life."Get out. Tell the Hawkinses that this property has been bought. I won't let them get away so easily if they continue causing trouble here!" Quinn gave a soft wave of her hand after that, and Pablo was thrown out the door along with his bodyguards.…Pablo knelt on the ground in the Hawkins residence while updating what had just happened."Did she really say she wouldn't let the Hawkinses get away with this so easily?" Carson looked upset whil
Outside the door of South Monarch Manor, another group of people appeared. This time, they were led by Emmett."Stand guard at all of the entrances. Make sure even a fly can't go in and out of there!" Emmett gave the order before flying into the manor.This was a family matter of the Coopers, and no one should be left alive if they witnessed this. That was why Emmett left his men behind while he entered South Monarch Manor on his own.It was an excellent piece of property.Emmett was impressed by its design.A figure appeared in white. She looked pure and out of this world.It was Quinn.She had sensed Emmett's aura and saw him walking around the manor like he owned the place. However, it was only now that she appeared before him."Who are you? Why did you barge into private property?!" Quinn stopped Emmett and questioned him coldly.Emmett was momentarily stunned to see such a great beauty before him. However, he snapped out of it when he heard her words."Who are you? Where
