“We need to run! Quickly!” The other members of the Hunt family started to fly away and attempted to escape when they saw that Second Young Master Hunt was no longer able to stand his ground against the attack.Thoom!Tyrell could not bear it anymore after the explosion occurred. All his leaves had been destroyed and he vomited a mouthful of blood. Already heavily wounded before, his face turned extremely pale after he was gravely injured again.About half of the power from Fane’s attack came toward him.“No!” shrieked Tyrell. When he realized he no longer had the time to escape, he gritted his teeth and quickly formed a small Chi protective layer around his being to surround himself.Fane’s remaining attack pummeled against the protective Chi layer the moment it was formed.Crack!Second Young Master Hunt had hoped that the protective Chi layer could tank at least half of the attack for him, but unexpectedly, the protective layer burst into pieces and fell apart in less than a
“Now, the connection between me and my son, Tyrell…is severed! My son!” Quentin seemed to have grown a couple of years older within mere moments as he plunged into despair.“I’d like to know which family this prodigy who killed the Second Young Master Hunt came from!” came the hushed murmurs among some of them. “That’s right, this person is really daring. I think only the top geniuses from the Eight Reclusive Families are able to do this!” said a family master from the second-class aristocratic family after carefully thinking over it. “It’s considered remarkable for prodigies from aristocratic families like ours to be in the initial or intermediate stage of the true-god level. They don’t have the strength to kill the Second Young Master Hunt!”“My… My son had already broken through to the true-god level’s final stage before he entered the forest, and he also has a middle-grade spiritual tool with him! Who’d be strong enough to kill him? I want to know, now!” The furious Quentin tig
Trenton then continued, as if he saw the fight with his own eyes, “No doubt, Second Young Master Hunt hates your son for that. It’s highly likely that they had a fight to the death if they happened to meet during the competition. Your son is highly suspicious in this case!”“Nonsense!” Nash was so angry that his face turned green as he resentfully snapped, “My son is quite strong, but he’s just broken through and achieved the true-god level intermediate stage recently, around one month ago. Even if Second Young Master Hunt hadn’t broken through, my son wouldn’t have bested him. Moreover, Second Young Master Hunt had already broken through and achieved the final stage of the true god level. How could my son stand up against him?”Agitated to the extreme, Nash could not allow Trenton to blame Tyrell’s death on members of the Woods family.The Hunt family’s old master was also infuriated and stood there in silence. He spoke up when he saw how agitated Nash was, “That’s enough. I don’t
“What sort of nonsense is that?!” Alejandro aimed his glare at Trenton. “Master Lagorio, don’t you think I'd kill you if you continue speaking such nonsense? On what grounds are you saying that my daughter is the killer when you don’t have any evidence? Show us the evidence if you’re so capable!”“That’s right. It’s in your best interest to not wrong others without any evidence!” The Woods family and Cabello family had bad blood between them for a long while, and that placed them both at odds with each other.However, this was the first time Nash sided with Alejandro.“That’s right. Fane had just broken through and achieved the true-god level intermediate stage, so his combat power isn’t strong. Also, while it’s true that my daughter is powerful in her own rights, it wouldn’t have been so easy if they wanted to kill the Second Young Master Hunt. I don’t think they’d both be able to kill him, even when they worked together!” refuted Alejandro angrily.“Haha… That’s hard to say. What
The corners of Quentin’s mouth slightly twitched when he heard this.The Hunt family’s first elder stepped forward and glared at Shelby angrily while he spoke, “Shelby, what’s the meaning of this? How can this be the same? That is our Hunt family master’s son, and the second young master is the proudest son of our family master. Second young master is not only talented, but he’s also a second-grade elementary alchemist. How can you compare such a genius with yours?”“Haha…! It looks like you people never planned to treat all of them equally!” Shelby smiled coldly. “If that’s the case, you guys should’ve never allowed your family master’s son to join the battle!”“That’s right! Are you implying that our sons aren’t human beings?”“You’ve gone too far this time. How could our sons die but yours can’t? Why did you people set such a rule for this competition then?” One by one, some of the elders and family masters from the third-class aristocratic families stood forward and started to
“Haha… Don’t worry, the Hunt family can still afford to lose. Apart from that, how can we not follow the rules we set?” Old Master Hunt laughed and seemed to have forgotten that the person who died was his grandson.However, everybody knew the old man would never ignore his grandson’s death entirely. If he knew who did this, he would do his worst and wreak havoc to that person’s life. He would also kill that person if the opportunity surfaced.“That’s right, let’s all wait and see. Have a look: Several dots of light disappeared from that area, and that meant several people died. I wonder which family they’re from!” spoke Quentin, chuckling as he purposely diverted the conversation while pointing at some area on the screen.Many people from the families sighed when they heard this. They had made their assumptions when they saw the dots of light disappearing from the screen during this competition. As Quentin reminded them of it, they inwardly prayed and hoped that more geniuses from
Venus offered the ring to Fane after careful consideration.Everybody knew that since members of the Hunt family roamed with Second Young Master Hunt, putting the other things apart, they must have handed all the tokens they got to him. That meant Second Young Master Hunt’s martial ring stashed various valuable items in it.“Alright, I’ll thankfully accept it.” Fane did not act hypocritically. He flipped his hand and took out the first-grade premium pill he cultivated previously before handing it to Venus. “I didn’t disappoint you, and I’ve succeeded in cultivating the pill this time. This is a gift to you, as promised.”“Oh, my! What did you give her? Let me see it!” Fane and the others did not expect Helena to fly toward them with over 20 people at that moment.“A first-grade premium pill!” Helena inhaled deeply when she saw the pill in her second sister’s hand and gushed, “Impressive, Fane, you have such a high-grade pill! But why did you give this to my second sister?”Fane im
“You killed him? Do… Do you have such strong combat power?” Helena, who Second Young Master Hunt nearly killed before, was shocked to the core when she learned that Fane was the one who killed him.Fane smiled helplessly. “I can’t deny it when so many people saw it.”“It’s really you!” Helena was in a daze, seemingly unable to comprehend the revelation within such a short moment. She had no idea that Fane was so strong.She considered it and walked to glance at Fane before she spoke skeptically, “Could it be that you’ve broken through? Have you broken through into the final stage of the true-god level? It’d be difficult for you to kill him if you haven’t broken through, right? I remembered that you brought me to escape before.”Fane smiled bitterly before he explained to Helena, “Didn’t I tell you previously that there were people eyeing us fighting from the dark? If I killed him back then, members of the Hunt family would easily know about it, and I was worried about the trouble t
There was a heavy rumbling as the door slowly opened. A boundless sense of energy seemed to come from it.A few of them looked inside. Other than the green light, they could see nothing. The light completely obscured their sight. If they wanted to look inside, they would have to step in themselves.On the way there, Fane had already talked to Lourain about it. Lourain wanted to see what the legendary Valley of Enlightenment was like. That was why Fane asked for two spots.The three of them exchanged looks with each other, and they did not hesitate to step forward together, entering the door.The power of distorting space suddenly pulled the three of them in. The space around them started to spin rapidly. They did not know how much time passed, but it felt like a whole century before the space slowed down in front of them. Then, the sense of weightlessness disappeared as their feet landed on solid ground.The three of them had not been sent to different locations and arrived at the
Zayne scoffed, "Alright then, how do you want to work together?"He wanted to see what Fane was trying to do.Fane did not waste any time, "Both of us have all three keys, and we can open the door. Ten people can enter the door anyway. I just need two of those spots.Zayne looked at Fane meaningfully, "You sure know quite a bit."Fane even knew that only ten people would be allowed through. He seemed to have done his homework.Zayne took out his purple key from his storage ring. At that moment, all three keys were there. As long as all the keys were placed together, the gateway to the Valley of Enlightenment would open."If you only need two spots, then I don't mind working with you," Zayne looked at Fane meaningfully, but he quickly added, "However, make sure you don't cause any trouble during the important moments."Fane smiled before he said, "I've always been someone who keeps to my word. I'm more worried that you'll cause me trouble instead. There are many geniuses in the V
The two of them knew what that meant. Their eyes met, and worry was evident in their eyes."Is it Fane again?" Zayne said with a frown. At that moment, the first name that popped up in his head was Fane.Only Fane would truly be a big problem for them. Seymour's expression turned sour. He suddenly felt like Fane seemed to be his Achilles heel. Fane could pop out at any time and put him in a difficult spot."That's right! It's me!" At that moment, a voice was heard from afar. The two of them looked in the direction of the voice and saw five figures appearing in the air.This time, Fane did not have a disguise on. He was facing everyone with his real face."It really is you!" Zayne's face completely soured at that moment. Even if they were meeting for the first time, he was already incredibly sensitive to Fane's name.Nothing good ever happened when Fane was mentioned and Fane had actually appeared in front of him."How dare you!" Seymour shouted angrily!He walked forward to sta
When Shin and the others saw that, they were speechless. That person who had looked down on them was completely bound and on the ground at that moment. He looked pathetic.Fane quickly walked toward Warren, reaching out to pull off the mask to reveal his face.Fane controlled his energy, reducing the destructive power in Warren's soul. After the pain diminished, Warren slowly woke up.He looked up and saw the one person he never wanted to see in his life. He lost his voice as he said, "Fane?! It's you!" He almost bit his tongue as he spoke.Fane smiled and nodded slightly, "Yes. It’s me.""No wonder, so it's you! Where's Presti then?" Warren looked up and said.Fane raised an eyebrow and shot an incredulous look at Warren. Warren immediately understood what happened, and his whole face turned pale, "He's dead!"Fane nodded. There was nothing much to hide. Warren gulped, suddenly feeling like his thoughts from earlier were an absolute joke at that moment. He had even been think
After seeing that, there was a surprised look on Warren's face. However, he quickly pushed back that surprise. Even if that man was skilled, he would just be an above-average warrior. Above-average warriors were like paper to him!"Brat, it looks like you have some skill. However, that means nothing in front of me. I'll show you right now what a warrior at the peak is!"Right after he said that, he circulated his true energy around his feet. Red energy started to frantically blow away the dust on the ground. He lunged into the air incredibly fast.Fane raised an eyebrow before he started to form seals with his hands. Countless seals danced around in the air, and a chain appeared.That chain looked like a black dragon as it danced in the air.Warren scoffed in disdain. It was just a petty trick from an above-average warrior in his eyes. That chain would shatter in just one blow.He did not even bother thinking about it as he raised the sword in his hand. A silver ray of light quic
He leaped forward and landed in front of those four. Fane had already noticed Warren a while ago, but Fane relaxed when he saw Warren was alone. If it was just one person, then there was nothing to worry about!"Presti really is a piece of trash. He couldn't even get you!" Warren said with a sneer.Shin clutched his chest and turned to look at Cavill next to him. Cavill nodded slightly and did not say anything. The two of them shut their mouths at the same time as they looked in Fane's direction.Warren immediately felt something was wrong. He turned to look at Fane and saw that Fane was still completely calm as if nothing had happened."Brat, it looks like you're no ordinary person!" Warren said with a sneer.Fane turned to look at him before saying calmly, "Are you here to kill us?"Warren laughed out loud, and his eyes were full of mockery, "What do you think I'm doing here? Do I look like I'm here to chat?"Fane laughed. He could not believe another one turned up so soon aft
When Warren heard that, he felt incredibly exasperated. He mumbled, "It's just Shin, how could there be any trouble? Even if he has some fellow disciples with him, Presti is more than enough. They're all trash anyway."Zayne frowned, and he unleashed an incredibly strong aura that forced Warren to take a step back, "Shut up! Do you think we can afford to be careless right now? We're at the cusp of accomplishing everything right now. We have to be extremely careful. What kind of attitude is this?"Warren immediately shut up and did not dare to say anything. Zayne coldly looked at Warren, and deeply felt like Warren was not someone who could accomplish much. If it was not for the fact that he was useful, Zayne would not even bother bringing Warren through the door with him.Seymour turned to look into the distance. Gray mist filled up the skies, and no one could see the end of the horizon.There was nothing in the skies, and Seymour suddenly started to feel some worry. He was not clo
In front of an ancient stone door, two men were standing there, while another was sitting down and resting.The men who were standing had very stiff expressions on their faces. The two of them looked at each other with animosity in their eyes. It was obvious they were not friendly with each other. The man who was sitting down had his eyes shut and completely ignored the other two."Seymour! You're just the same as Desmond. You can't even get something so simple done. Desmond lost his life. I think you're about to follow suit!" Warren sneered as he mocked.Seymour's expression was dark, and he shot right back, "Warren, stop with those disgusting words of yours! Don't think I don't know what you're trying to do. You're just trying to push me down and take all the credit for yourself!"Stop joking around! You aren't smart enough to steal my credit! Even though Desmond is already dead, he still did the best he could. He was just tricked by Fane. If it was you, you wouldn't even have
Fane frowned. After he reached out to grab Presti's neck, Presti's life ended with a crack.Shin's eyes widened as he looked at Fane with fear. His savior could very well kill him!Cavill started to panic as well. He looked at Fane with alarm. Even though he was thankful that Fane saved the two of them just now, he had no way to tell what Fane would do after this. Fane slowly walked in front of them, and he did not show much emotion on his face.Cavill said in a dry voice, "Fane, you…?"Fane shook his head, "Don't panic. I won't kill you. Let's work together. It's not like only one person will be able to enter after the door opens."Shin looked at Fane with an incredibly inquisitive look. He thought about it before he said, "I… I don't want to work together. I'll give you the key as thanks for saving me. That Valley of Enlightenment doesn't sound like a good place at all. If I enter, I don't even know if I'll be able to survive."As he spoke, Shin had a bitter look on his face.
