Quinn laughed at Bianca teasingly.Since having a heart-to-heart, they had become more comfortable with each other."Stop it, Quinn." Bianca reached out to grab Quinn's arm, and they left together, leaving Chase alone."She only has less than two years left, Chase."Chase had been in a daze. That was when a voice rang in his mind.It was Lucas. He was the previous sect master of the Esoteric Medical Sect, after all. It took only one look from Lucas to know what was wrong with Bianca."What do you mean, sir?" Chase asked in bewilderment."If you guessed it's because of her Dragon Song Physique, you're right. Even though she looks fine on the surface, the dragon energy within her is starting to awaken. It would be the perfect time to cultivate if she were a man. "However, a woman has light energy, which complicates the situation. She'll lose the ability to walk within a year and die within two years.""Is there anything we can do to help her now that you've pinpointed the probl
Chase quickly looked away when he heard the woman's unhappy tone."Miss Hannah, don't open the door every time you hear someone outside. There's always someone knocking on the door for no reason here. Several people show up like this every day.It's so annoying every time you open the door. "Before Chase could say anything, the voice spoke up next to the woman again. Chase followed the direction of the voice and soon saw a lively woman appear in front of him."Stop that, Lottie. He's still out here."Lottie stared at Chase. He looked to be in his 20s.There was a condescending look on her face."I don't care if he's still out here."Didn't I tell you, Miss Hannah? Look at him. He's one of those shameless men loitering around and knocking on people's door for no reason.""Quiet, Lottie!""Don't take in just anybody just because you have no customers, Miss Hannah. Look at him. Does he look like a patient to you?"Lottie was still talking back at Hannah.Chase felt slightly aw
An embarrassed look appeared on Hannah's beautiful face.Frowning, she contemplated this. She finally gave in to reality and said to Chase, "Mr. Collins, you can tell me about the situation.""There's someone I know who possesses the legendary Dragon Song Physique. I was looking for the miracle doctor to help her expel it from her. I wonder if you're able to get it done, Miss Jones?"Chase was straightforward about it when he found out Hannah was Skylar's disciple."The Dragon Song Physique? From what I understand, this physique is very rare even in the cultivating world. Why would you want to expel it, Mr. Collins?"Hannah was bewildered."Yes, I know that. This is a very rare physique in the cultivating world, but what if it was a woman who possesses it?""A woman? I see. I understand now. However, even my master hasn't met with such a situation before. I don't have full confidence in helping you with this. I'd need to see the patient first before deciding anything. "Where i
Chase appeared with Hannah at the front door of South Monarch Manor."Where is this?" Hannah asked warily."This is my home."Chase led Hannah straight inside.She was immediately met with glares from Quinn and Bianca.Chase had only been gone for a while, and he was already back with a beautiful woman.He quickly transmitted his voice to Quinn, "Quinn, this is the doctor I got to help treat Bianca's Dragon Song Physique."Chase had told her earlier about Bianca's Dragon Song Physique.Quinn looked slightly relieved when she heard Chase's explanation.Hannah frowned the moment she saw Bianca.As the only disciple of the miracle doctor, Skylar, Hannah recognized Bianca's physique with a single look. It was really the Dragon Song Physique."Is there any way of expelling it?"Chase whispered the question in Hannah's ear.Hannah remembered Chase telling her that this woman had no idea that the physique was threatening her life. So, she went along with her and whispered the ans
Chase knew nothing about this before Lucas informed him about it.All Hannah did was check Bianca's pulse and she was able to diagnose the situation. It was no wonder that she could be a disciple of the miracle doctor, Skylar."Is there anything you can do, Miss Jones?" Chase quickly asked."No, there isn't.""Is there nothing I can do but watch Bianca die?"Hannah did not reply to him but asked a question instead, "Mr. Collins, what's your relationship with Quinn and Miss Cooper?"How did she know Quinn's name? Chase was curious but did not think much of it."One is my fianceé, and the other is a very good friend."Chase did not hide anything and told her the truth."You're a lucky man, Mr. Collins, especially when both women are able to live together peacefully."Hannah started to sound sarcastic when she heard his answer.It was clear that Chase's answer had upset Hannah."Does this have anything to do with Bianca's condition?"Chase was not angered but tried asking mor
She was feeling angry about everything when she got home, just to see that others had barged into her house. This fueled her anger even more.Hannah entered her house furiously."You're back, Miss Jones."Douglas immediately leaped from his chair when he saw Hannah. He approached her and attempted to hold her hand."Please be respectful, Mr. Weber!"Hannah said coldly, evading him by moving to the side."Why are you hiding from me? You'll be my wife sooner or later, Hannah Jones." Douglas was not angered but smiled instead."What are you talking about?" Hannah asked angrily."I'm being serious. You know very well that my father had asked your master for your hand in marriage. He already agreed to it. You know about this," Douglas said casually."Hmph! I was very young back then, and my master didn't ask for my opinion about this. Now that he isn't around, it's all just empty words from you.""You should know what's good for you, Hannah Jones. You should be honored that I'm inte
Hannah took the cash and even smiled as she invited Chase to stay for a meal.Just as she expected, her invitation took effect.Douglas could no longer take it.He immediately asked, "Who are you?""Well, who are you?" Chase did not answer but returned the question with a bewildered look on his face.It was just a meal. What was this guy's problem?Chase had not even agreed to it."Douglas from the Webers!" he replied with pride.Most people would be flabbergasted to hear Douglas announce his name. Douglas expected this time to be the same.However, things did not work out as he expected.Chase did not think anything of his answer."Alright, I'll stay for the meal!""How dare you?!" Douglas shouted angrily. A few of his henchmen immediately surrounded Chase the moment Douglas spoke.That was when Chase realized that Douglas' henchmen were all marquises of martial arts. There was even one stage-two martial lord.Who exactly was Douglas? Douglas had such powerful men around
Chase watched Douglas walk away without stopping him.He had realized by now that Hannah was just making use of him. It was just that Chase had no idea what he had done for Hannah to change her attitude toward him.Even though Chase hated being made use of, he did not give Hannah too much trouble on account that she had made a visit to his house to diagnose Bianca.All he did was glance stoically at Hannah, who was watching everything unfold gleefully.He prepared to leave Herb Hall.Hannah must have felt guilty, or it could be something else. Before Chase left, she gave him a warning."Mr. Collins, I'd advise you to leave Capital City as soon as possible. The Webers are more powerful in Capital City than you think. Even if you're a powerhouse with high cultivation, it would be best to avoid them.""You don't need to trouble yourself over if I leave or stay. One last thing, I hope whatever you did just now would not happen a second time."Chase walked away without looking back.
A cynical smile appeared on Chase's face. He waved his hand, and two silver flashes shot out.Silver needles pierced into the men in black's hearts and through the middle of their eyes. They did not even make a sound as they died on the spot."What…"All the Webers watching took a sharp breath and stumbled back a few steps. There was wariness in their expressions as they were filled with fear. Those men were powerful martial artists, but they were killed without even being able to retaliate."Who is this man? How dare he slaughter the guards of the Secret Sect's headquarters?!"Everyone began whispering among themselves."My gosh! That man must be a god to be so powerful. He killed all the guards from the Secret Sect's headquarters! How many people have he killed?""I heard that a powerful man emerged in Capital City who destroyed the Starks. Could it be him?""Impossible! Your news is outdated. I heard that this man's name is Chase Collins. He was born in a village at the bord
Chase would rather exhaust his vital energy than use precious ingredients. After all, he aimed to be at the peak of martial arts.If he relied on precious ingredients to help achieve peak stage momentarily, it would easily leave unwanted side effects or even cause his power to spiral. His cultivation would be forever stalled if that happened.There was a reason why some things were too good to be true.The cultivator's path meant that the more powerful the skill, the more difficulties one had to endure. It was the same with saint-level skills."If I accumulate enough experience, I can still formulate a plan to scale to greater heights even if I'm unable to achieve a breakthrough within a short time."There was a glint deep inside Chase's eye.All the old and weak, women and children of the Webers were just ants to Chase. He could destroy them with just a flip of the hand. They were not worth mentioning at all.However, if they gathered, they would be able to produce great power
"Kill him!"These martial artists were all powerful fighters. Even the weakest among them was a peak eighth-tier semi-saint. They sensed with their consciousness that Halver had been defeated.All of the Webers' powerhouses were filled with hate and anger. They took out their weapons and lunged toward Chase in an attack.The look in Chase's eye became even colder when the Webers retaliated. "I'll destroy the Webers today and get those two medicinal herbs after."A huge sword shadow formed behind Chase. The sword flash swept in all directions, destroying all of the weapons in the attack against Chase.Chase took another step forward. The sword in hand dazzled so brightly that it hurt the eyes. The light covered every corner as if about to destroy everything.It took only a short time for the Webers' powerhouses to be slaughtered. They did not even have the chance to retaliate. They were as weak as sick chickens.Cletus was shocked, feeling his hair stand on end. It felt like deat
Everyone was delighted.Halver Weber, the master of the Weber Secret Sect, was a peak martial arts saint. He was the second most powerful man after the Supreme Elder of the Webers.Two old men in black stood next to him with powerful auras. One of them was the leader of the Webers' Enshrined, Dennis Cloy. The other man was Halver's brother, Cletus."Who are you? How dare you barge into the Weber residence?! Don't you know that the Webers are Capital City's top family?" Halver said with a cold look on his face."Top family?" Chase laughed condescendingly and said with indifference, "I heard that the Webers possess two thousand-year-old spiritual herbs. Bring them out here. Give me those herbs and the Webers will live. Otherwise…"Chase paused at this point. He swept a glance at all the Webers present. A cynical smile appeared on his face. "This isn't much. The Webers are nothing to me!"Halver was enraged and roared, "What arrogance! Don't blame us for retaliating with force now t
Meanwhile, Chase was glowing in gold light, looking like a God of War.He was dressed to hunt, and there was a cold look in his eye. He displayed no emotions, acting like all he had done was kill an ant.Chase pulled out his sword, where blood was dripping down the blade.He turned to leave and headed to look for the Webers. Now that he was done with the Starks, it was time to take care of the Webers.Chase thought about this as he walked there. The Starks were one of the most wealthy families in Capital City. It did not bother him to destroy the Starks, but he had to find a good reason to do so or it might make others suspicious."Forget about it. I'll destroy the Weber Secret Sect first before thinking about this."Not long after, Chase arrived at the door of the Weber Secret Sect. He pushed the door open and strode in.The guards of the Weber Secret Sect saw Chase barge in and shouted, "Who dares come into the Weber Secret Sect?!" Chase kept silent as he continued walking i
"Who exactly is that young man? Why haven't I heard of him? The Starks are finished for making such a powerful enemy."Chase was decisive and resolute. He was ruthless, which frightened many of the Starks' guards.He closed his eyes to rest. Thin, black smoke began wafting out of his body and it eventually covered everything around Chase. No one was able to get near him.This was a lonely mountain peak that was far away from the bustling city.After some time, a car came by and parked near the mountain."Bastard!"Someone roared in misery. Theo Stark jumped out of his car. He was furious and roared with great anger.He looked at the abandoned house in front of him. Sorrow, fear, and revenge consumed him. His roars echoed all around."Chase Collins! Where is my son, Tank?!"He ran toward the ruins crazily.Just as Theo was about to get inside, he suddenly sensed a great danger. The next thing he knew, the mountain began shaking. It felt like the sky was about to fall. Theo was
Something sped by in the air, and several powerful auras were coming in close."Who are you? How dare you slaughter the Starks?"The man in the lead grunted coldly. He had a spear in his hand and came speeding over in a flash to stab Chase in the back.Chase did not look back. He raised his left hand and flicked his finger. There was a loud bang, and the spear broke into pieces. Turning back, he waved his hand. The dagger shot out midair and stabbed right between the man's eyes."H-How is this possible…" The man's eyes widened as he looked at Chase in disbelief. His mouth moved as if trying to say something, but his body gradually turned cold and stiff. This happened in a flash.By the time the other powerful auras appeared, the man with the spear was dead."Who are you?!" The two men were shocked. They were looking at Chase in great astonishment."I should be the one asking who you are," Chase sneered, his eyes narrowing.The two old men stepped forward and said in a deep voic
Chase saw that the entire living room was covered in blood. The walls were filled with various frightening torture tools."Is this how the Starks treat their guests?" Chase's expression was cold. He said this slowly and carefully, making sure every word was heard.The Starks!They were crossing the line!"Who's there?!"An angry voice was heard from deep inside the house. It was followed by violent coughing.A young man with messy hair struggled to stand. He was covered in blood. An arm fell limply below his shoulders. The cut on it was clean, and it was a horrifying sight to see.His eyes were bloodshot as he stared at Chase. "You worthless ant, you—pfft!"He only managed a few words before his throat caught something and he coughed up blood."Who are you? The Starks have never crossed paths with you. Why do you want me dead?!" He was a member of the Starks, and he questioned Chase with clenched teeth.A name immediately appeared in Chase's mind at the sight of this Stark fa
The elder was furious with what the Gold Devouring Voodoo Bug did."Damn it! You destroyed everything I had!"He was filled with anger. His eyes were red as he yelled hysterically. His voice was shrill, and it sounded like the shrill of a banshee."Did you think you were the only one who knew how to use voodoo?" Chase grunted coldly."Impossible! How could you know restricted mystical techniques?" The elder was in disbelief. Only a direct descendent of the clan was qualified to cultivate the Gold Devouring Voodoo Bug."Nothing is impossible in this world," Chase said with conviction.He flicked his fingers after that, and a green talisman appeared. It exploded with a loud bang and formed into a burning ball of flame.Two balls of flame came flying over and sat on each side of Chase's shoulder. The flames burned furiously as they formed into fire armor that covered him. His defense increased."You must die…"The elder laughed crazily.He waved his hand, and two wooden puppets
