Capital City was abuzz with the Webers going all out in action. Everyone was curious about the Webers' being so active until an insider revealed the reason.That was when everyone found out that they were doing this solely because of Chase."That Chase Collins is really daring to have barged into the Weber residence to murder. He should be severely punished.""Exactly. He has no respect for the influential families."Most of the influential families were on the Webers' side.Capital City was flipped upside down quickly, but even then, no one could find Chase. Even the woman with Chase had vanished."Looks like Chase Collins has escaped because he can't afford to offend the Webers.""That's right. I always thought Chase Collins was just a hothead. I didn't expect him to go into hiding when the Webers started searching for him."Someone gave their opinion.This went on for several days until it was confirmed that Chase was not in Capital City. It was only then that things starte
There was nothing Chase could do as Lilith had already left.He stood there in a daze before remembering something. He knew someone in Eastern Ocean—Aaron Payne!It was the true master of martial arts he had released from Basalt's headquarters.This was the time Chase needed him.Chase's consciousness spread out.He had placed a restrictive mechanism on Aaron, and now that he was on Eastern Ocean grounds, all he needed was to use some effort and it would be easy to locate Aaron.However, despite reaching out with his consciousness, Chase could not sense the restrictive mechanism.This was bad.Chase had no choice but to take Bianca to the hotel first.Their accommodation was not up to hotel standards at all.To be exact, it was more like a motel.Such motels were easy to find everywhere in Eastern Ocean.Chase found a few such accommodations every few steps.Even though Chase did not understand Eastern Oceanian, he found it strange that he could read most of the signboards
Customer was king, and this owner understood it."This meal comes to a total of a hundred thousand," the owner said casually."What? A hundred thousand for just a few dishes? This is daylight robbery."Bianca exclaimed in shock before Chase could say anything."It's the pricing for you. This meal usually costs only ten thousand, young lady. You might not be aware of this, but we don't encourage food wastage in Eastern Ocean. You didn't touch your food at all, which is why I'm charging you a hundred thousand. The 90,000 is considered your fine."The owner said to them coldly."You did this on purpose," Bianca said angrily."It's fine."Chase held back Bianca, who wanted to continue arguing. He put some Eastern Oceanian currency he had previously changed onto the bar.He pulled Bianca to leave the restaurant.That was when an Eastern Oceanian seated at the side thought Chase to be a weakling.He began to make fun of Chase."What dumb people they are. People from Bactria are s
Now, Chase did not stop there and swung his kick toward the Eastern Oceanian next.A loud sound was heard.The bones of the Eastern Oceanian broke loudly.Chase finally asked, "Do you know what a true master of martial arts is?""Damn it! Why would you bully ordinary people like us if you're a true master of martial arts?"The Eastern Oceanian lay on the floor with blood flowing down his mouth.Everyone in the restaurant did not dare stay any longer at this sight and ran out of there. The only person left was the Eastern Oceanian's friend, who stood at the side not knowing whether to stay or leave."Weren't you the one who taunted me?" Chase asked with a snigger."If you had told me you were a true master of martial arts, why would I taunt someone like you from Bactria?""It sounds like I'd deserve to be taunted if I weren't a true master."The Eastern Oceanian stayed silent.After a while, he continued babbling stubbornly, "Damn you. Don't think that you can throw your weig
The man did not dare object to Chase's request, but he was speechless when Chase wanted to be taken to East Capital."What's wrong?"Chase asked the question when he saw the man looking unwilling. "Honorable sir, the Yorels Organization has a rule. No one is allowed to go to East Capital without the permission of our leaders. We have many members, after all, and if we leave just like that, our motives can be easily misunderstood."The man explained the situation to Chase.Chase thought this sounded reasonable.After all, Eastern Ocean did not have a dense population."Then bring me to your branch instead."Since the man in front of him could not make any important decisions, Chase would find someone who could.The Eastern Oceanian did not dare to reject Chase's request. He led Chase and Bianca out of the restaurant to a hot spring hotel."What is this place, Shea?"Chase looked at the huge signboard at the entrance. It said Ozark Hot Spring Hotel.He found out the Eastern
There was one main path that led to every hot spring, and it was a long, winding path.Chase took a glance and saw that there were dozens of hot springs in front of him.It was close to night at the time. That might be why most of the hot springs were empty.Chase tested the spring water with his hand. It was nice and warm. They were really hot springs. There might be something unusual under all of these hot springs, though.Shea noticed what Chase was doing and could tell that Chase was interested in the hot springs.He spoke up right away, "Honorable sir, the hot spring where the branch leader is would be the best one here. If you're interested, you can try it out." "Oh, really?"Chase showed his interest when he heard this.He needed to see the branch leader anyway, and he decided to take the opportunity to find out what was special about the hot springs.It was not long before Shea led Chase to the end of the path.There was a hot spring that could fit four to five peopl
"Stop right there. Where do you think is? Do you think you can come and go as you please?" Jimmy gave a look to his men after saying this. The men in black went to each side of Chase to stop him."Shea is a small gang leader with Yorels Organization. Even if he were a normal member, you wouldn't be able to force him into anything with just one word. Tell me the price you're willing to pay for this."Jimmy said this with full confidence.He had expected this.This man from Bactria was already retreating the moment he saw Jimmy."I can pay him a tourist guide fee," Chase replied nonchalantly.He had requested Shea to take him to East Capital, which was similar to what a tourist guide would do. It was enough to make it up to Shea with the payment.If this were some other place, he would have already beaten these people up for offending him."Are you kidding me? Do you think we look like people who need money?" Jimmy was angered by Chase's reply."What do you want?" Chase asked.
"Hahah! You have guts! You're the first person who dares challenge Yorels Organization in Ozark. Men!"Jimmy shouted an order.A bunch of men in black appeared around them. It looked like there were at least a hundred of them at a glance.Each of them had a gun in their hand.Chase had heard before that loyalty and integrity were important values in Eastern Ocean, especially among triads. It looked like it was true.He was tightly surrounded in a blink of an eye."Now, do you still have the courage to say what you did? I'd be very impressed if you repeated your words now," Jimmy said.A hundred men opened up a path for Jimmy.He had a curved longsword in his hand as he got closer to Chase. Everyone thought that Chase did not dare to fight back."Mr. Fields, it wouldn't be great if he's killed. He's from Bactria, after all," Shea tried to talk Jimmy out of it as he followed behind Jimmy."It doesn't matter where he's from. Do you know how many people from Bactria have died in
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
