Chapter 107 The News Spreads

Author: Lil Thorny Flower
The TV was showing Riverton's news. The announcer was in a hotel, holding a microphone in their hand. "Latest news. A murder took place at Royal Hotel at ten last night. The victims are Silas Joshton, heir to the Centersea Corporation, as well as four thugs."

George's cutlery fell out of his hands. "What? Silas is dead?"

Queenie's eyes went wide, and they were glued to the screen. "Silas got murdered?"

The announcer went on with the news. The screen showed the bodies of Silas and the thugs, but all of them were covered in white cloths, though the blood in the room still oozed.

Queenie's heart sank. 'Silas is dead? Who did it? The thugs kidnapped me last night, and Nono saved me. Did he kill—' She cut off that thought, and panic settled in.

Queenie charged off, and her parents watched in confusion.

"Nono! Nono!" Queenie ran up to Nox's room.

Hearing the shout, Nox opened his door. "Queenie? What's wrong?"

Queenie screeched to a halt and grabbed Nox's hand. "Tell me, did you kill

    Gold consoled his grieving wife, "Calm down, honey. I'll find out who the killer is, and I'll make them pay tenfold! Take the lady to her room. She needs to rest."A servant took Sarah to her room quickly, and then footsteps echoed in the air. Gold raised his head only to see his brother coming in. A couple of armed soldiers followed him. Rivera quickly asked, "What happened, Gold? I heard Silas is…"Gold plopped down on his chair, his eyes red. Tremulously, he said, "Yes. He was murdered last night.""What?" Rivera slammed his fist on the wooden table before him, and it was crushed into pieces. "Who's the bastard? How dare he kill Silas?"Gold shook his head. "All I know is he went to Royal Hotel last night. As for the reason? I have no idea."Rivera said, "It's alright, Gold. I'll tap into my connections and find out who the killer is. They'll pay with their lives."…While the Joshtons were looking into Silas' death, Nox was living a quiet life in the Sanders Residence. He di

    The mention of Queenie stirred up a storm in Gold's eyes. Rivera asked, "Why was he with that wench?"The bodyguard looked at Gold, and he stammered, too scared to answer."Speak!" Rivera harrumphed.The bodyguard answered, "According to our investigation, Silas and a team of four thugs kidnapped Ms. Sanders and took her to Royal Hotel.""What?" Rivera was shocked. "Silas took her to Royal Hotel? What is the meaning of this, Gold?"Gold knew how cruel his son could be. He wasn't surprised Silas did that to Queenie. He took a deep breath. "Rivera, Silas was young. Sometimes he could be a bit impulsive, but that is no reason for them to kill my son!"Rivera knew what his brother was getting at. He mused over it for a moment and decided to stay quiet about it. "So what will you do, Gold?"Gold was black as thunder. The memory of his son's lifeless body stirred up hatred in his soul. "They will pay with their lives. I am sure that bitch has something to do with Silas' death."River

    Before the attacks could land, someone said, "Stop it! Don't hurt my parents!" Queenie came in from the backyard, and Nox was behind her.The sight of Queenie made Gold's temples throb. "You're finally here, bitch."Queenie ignored Gold. Instead, she checked on her father. George was fine, and Queenie stood up. "What do you want, Gold?"Gold's eyes were red with fury. "What do I want? You killed my son, and you have the gall to ask me what I want?""Nonsense. I didn't kill Silas," Queenie snapped."Lies! My son came to you at the ball of the bluebloods, didn't he?" Gold asked.Queenie looked uneasy. "And so what?"Gold said, "That's as good as a confession. Guards, take her down!"The bodyguards tried to attack Queenie, but Queenie roared, "Hold it right there! Gold, your bastard of a son kidnapped me! You're trying to capture me before I even hold him accountable for his crimes?"Queenie told him what happened that night, but Gold said coldly, "I don't know anything about the

    Nox raised his head coolly. "Wanna have another round?"Gold wouldn't do it. All his bodyguards were taken down, and he panicked. "W-Who are you? Why are you meddling with my family's affairs?"Nox icily said, "I told you, you don't deserve to know my name."And an icy voice came from the doorway. "Is that so? I'd like to see how arrogant you can be when I'm here."A platoon of armed soldiers in camo suits came barging in. They held up their guns, training them on Nox and everyone else. The one in the lead was Rivera, the lieutenant colonel.The sight of these soldiers made Queenie's parents scream. Queenie was frozen in fear as well.Gold, however, quickly approached his brother and his platoon. "Just in time, Rivera. Quick, get that punk."Rivera looked at Nox, but when he felt Nox's aura crashing down on him, his heart skipped a beat. He wondered, 'Who is this punk? His aura is powerful. It's even more powerful than the commander's.'He took a deep breath. "Did you injure th

    Nox smiled at Queenie. "Don't worry about me. It's alright.""How can I not worry? Are you stupid? Why'd you confess to murder?" Queenie was panicking, but Nox only patted her head reassuringly."Don't worry. I'll be fine." He then approached Rivera and Gold. "Listen up, I killed Silas. Queenie and her family aren't involved in this. You want revenge? Come at me."Gold stared at Nox, his eyes wide. "You killed my son, you punk?""That I did," said Nox."How dare you? You bastard, I'll kill you!" A berserk Gold rushed at Nox, but Rivera stopped him."Don't worry, Gold. I will make him pay for Silas' death. But a mere killing is not enough for him."Gold nodded. Rivera then turned to Nox. "You have guts, I'll give you that. But for killing my nephew, I'll kill you too. Soldiers, take him away."The armed soldiers quickly grabbed Nox and tried to take him away, but Queenie ran up to them."You can't just accuse him of murder. He didn't kill Silas," she cried, trying to pull Nox a

    "Rivera Joshton?" Alexander knew who Rivera was. As Ferguson said, he was the lieutenant colonel of Zone: Draco. Even though Alexander was rich, he wouldn't try to get into a fight with the military.Still, Alexander smirked. "Zone: Draco's soldier captured the lord? Well, this is interesting. Ferguson, this is an order. Hop on my private jet and set a course for Zone: Draco. Seek out General Fort. And tell him…"Alexander whispered something to his steward. Ferguson looked horrified for a moment, then he nodded. "I understand, sir. Right away."Alexander smiled. "Zone: Draco, huh? Let's see how you get out of this, Rivera."…Nox was imprisoned in a dank underground chamber in the Joshton Residence. Armed soldiers from Zone: Draco stood guard at the doorstep. Even though he was imprisoned, Nox remained seated cross-legged.Rivera could only capture him because he didn't want to fight them. If he wanted to, they could send an army, and he could take them down easily, let alone a

    Rivera roared, "You bastard! How dare you say our commander's name? I'll shoot you here and now!""I doubt you can do that." Nox sneered.And that ruffled Rivera's feathers. He was a lieutenant colonel, and this level of disrespect was unacceptable. "Soldiers, shoot this scoundrel!"A group of guards came rushing in and pointed their weapons at Nox."You asked for this, punk! You have no one to blame but yourself!"Just when the soldiers were about to shoot, Nox recited, "Amidst the mountains and rivers grand, No worry dims the fervent stand. On sands of battle, our nation's seed, Where the fallen rest, in valor freed. In the mist of blood, 'neath skies of gold, Dragon's cry echoes, mighty and bold. Across the land, resounds the dragon's call, In sands where brave souls eternally sprawl."Every word he spoke struck inspiration and fear into the soldiers around him. When the soldiers heard what he said, they were stunned. One of them widened his eyes."That's the battlesong of ou

    Gold couldn't believe Alexander and a hundred men were around his house. Even Rivera's face fell."Darn it! Is he mad? We have no beef with his company, so what's with this assault?" Gold roared.Rivera said, "Worry not, Gold. With me around, no one can touch my family. We're checking things out."Gold nodded, and they both left the underground chamber.A big group of people surrounded the Joshton Family's gates. In the lead was Alexander himself. And then, the gates swung open. Out came Rivera, Gold, and a platoon of armed soldiers.The soldiers held up their guns, pointing at Alexander and the bodyguards. Alexander, however, was unfazed. He stood tall and proud.Gold asked, "What brings you to my humble abode, Mr. Weeks? And you brought quite a number of people, too."Alexander sneered. "I'll make it clear, Gold. Have you captured someone from the Sanders Residence?"Gold sneered as well. "And who might that person be, Mr. Weeks?""Don't play dumb. I'm telling you, the perso

    Three months later, Nox declared Faeast as the leader of all nations, ushering in a true era of peace and prosperity. Then, he abdicated the throne, passing the throne to Nineve. Nox proclaimed that this nation was neither the Greenshade nor the Limerent family's, but a world that belonged to its people.One year later, Nox and Queenie lounged under the warm sun on the sandy shores of the Ocean of Death, enjoying a rare moment of tranquility. The world had finally settled into peace, allowing them to take a well-deserved rest."Nono, what's Aphrodite up to?" Queenie asked, her brows furrowed as she leaned against Nox. "Is she planning something shady again? She's been building alliances all over like she wants to imitate the Three-Eyed Empress.""Death changes people," Nox replied calmly. "Don't worry about her. She knows exactly what she's doing."Old Aphrodite would've killed Jacques and run off to save herself without a second thought. Instead, she spared him, stripped his cul

    The Nine-State Crucible hovered majestically over the heavens, drawing all the spiritual energy from the Nine States and Five Domains into itself. As the ultimate artifact of Faeast, the crucible was unmatched—a legendary relic that had never known defeat.The origins of the Nine-State Crucible were shrouded in mystery. No one knew who forged it nor why it disappeared over the ages. For centuries, many dismissed it as a mere myth. Yet now, it reappeared, proving its existence—and, by extension, the truth of all the ancient legends tied to it.The sight left every cultivator present in awe, bowing in reverence to the artifact."The ancient sovereigns of Faeast forged the Nine-State Crucible to safeguard the Nine States and Five Domains. "Its power ensures that Ascendants cannot interfere with the mortal realm. It has crushed even Ascendants in the past, and you, still merely a mortal cultivator, think you can stand against it? I promised to crush you, and I will!"With Nox at it

    However, only Nox himself could sever the celestial providence. Only by cutting off the Celestial Lord's celestial providence could Faeast's providence be restored to its peak."Damn it! Nox Greenshade! Do you really think you can defy the heavens? I didn't want to damage my cultivation, but it seems I have no choice but to go all out! You think a one-ring Minor Saint can defeat me? I am the Celestial Lord—the apex of mortals, the Great Saint of Dao and Virtue, ordained by the heavens themselves!"The Celestial Lord's furious roar resonated across Mystia, drawing in vast waves of spiritual energy from the realm that converged upon him alone."Great Saint of Dao and Virtue? If the so-called heavens of the Transcendent Firmament made you, it only proves that even they have failures," Nox retorted coldly.Even the Celestial Lord, enraged as he was, could scarcely believe Nox's audacity—daring to disparage the mighty figures of the Transcendent Firmament."I am indeed a one-ring Minor

    'What? Griffin was a sworn brother to Magic Mountain's founder?!'"That's right," confirmed the formation master. "He only told us recently."As the first to learn of this connection, he had shared it with the Saints of the Five Elements, ensuring they wouldn't betray their alliance. Using the promise of ascension as leverage, he managed to secure their cooperation. After all, the Great Saint of Fire had already reached the threshold for ascension.The risks were minimal, and upon ascending to the Transcendent Firmament, the Magic Mountain's founder would surely offer his guidance. For that reason alone, the five mentors had rallied to aid Nox.With such mighty forces gathered, morale on Nox's side soared. Meanwhile, the Whitefield family's spirits plummeted, crashing from the heights of hope to the depths of despair in mere moments. The mental strain caused several of their weaker-willed members to break completely.With dread settling over them, the Whitefields could only place

    The Whitefields were getting cocky, but then they realized the powerhouses that came weren't responding. The aura was powerful, but there was no life in it. On closer inspection, they noticed that the leader of the group only had half a body left. His soul was missing. The quartet behind him was nothing but a pile of mincemeat.The portal buzzed again, and seven silhouettes came out. Five of them felt domineering, and they looked prideful. It almost felt like they were peerless. These people were none other than the Saints of the Five Elements.Four of them were Pinnacle Minor Saints. While one had an aura so strong, this place couldn't handle it."A Great Saint! Great Saint of Fire!" Fiery Ignis, Dominic, and Achille couldn't believe their eyes.It had been too long since Mystia saw a Great Saint, and he was Nox's mentor."So, he's the one who broke through first. But now he's already hit his bottleneck. The other four's power isn't enough. If the Sacred Beast Seal isn't upgraded

    The Montgomerys and the Byrds decided to see Nox together, but they were refused. They were cursing Nox and calling him disrespectful, but then they saw Nox and his team taking a portal to the path of the ancient divine."What? He went right to them? Why? He's going to fight the Celestial Lord now?" The representatives were shocked.'How dare they!' they thought.Nox and his team went through the portal quickly and appeared right over the Whitefields' place. The Whitefield family was the newest member of the divine four and the real mastermind behind the Inkdarks' demise."Kirin, I told you I'd take you back here someday. I told you that when we come back, the Whitefields will be no more. If you can't do it, I can wipe them out for you." Nox looked at Kirin."Don't look down on me, milord. You don't need to dirty your hands for them. I'll do it!" Kirin summoned his avatar, and with Saint power infused, the avatar turned into a real beast. The sacred beast itself descended upon the

    "Time to finish this. My lord's going to the path of the ancient divine next. You should decide who's going to take over after the Celestial Lord is taken down. That's all. Now let's talk about our personal business. Listen up, anyone who had a part in attacking my family, tell your clans that I'm coming for them. I'm killing all of you!"Bloodlust filled the air, and the representatives were shocked. "You killed your own family. Yes, we made them attack you, but we never wanted to wipe it out!" the Whitefields' representative said.Kirin flew into a rage. "How low can you go? You forced them to kill me, or you would wipe us out instead! You think I'm stupid? You'd have killed my family either way! I know how you guys function. You're crueler than any beast out there. Listen up, there's still time to plan for your funeral. You'd better make a good plan."Kirin chased everyone away. The families were going back to prepare for battle, but two remained behind. One was the Byrds' repres

    Nox's Magick Sword crushed the enemy leader's soul. "I said I would cut you down, and I did. Now do you see who's the ignorant one?"The enemy leader realized that Nox was the man at the pinnacle. Perhaps the moment Nox became a faux Saint, he was already no match for him. "So what if you can kill me? You are Faeast's Sovereign, and you have a duty to push Faeast to power. But the Celestial Lord still exists. As long as he is around, your wish will never be fulfilled." He sneered."Is that so? Well, he's next on the list to be culled. If anyone tries to make an enemy out of me, I will destroy them and their families, even if they are from the path of the ancient divine!"Nox shattered the remains of the soul, and the path of the martial's leader was no more. The problem harassing Faeast for millennia could be solved at long last. Achille was stunned. It hadn't been that long, but Nox had surpassed him.Nox was better than him in every way. He was an even better swordsman than Achil

    The enemy leader was waiting. One technique broken wasn't enough to take Nox out. He wanted to wait until Nox had cast all he knew and find an opening to take him down, but Nox wanted to take him down with the power of the sword."You're stubborn. Very well, this makes things easier for me. I'll kill you, or at the very least, wound you!" He'd be stupid not to take advantage of this. The enemy leader's avatar morphed into a gigantic fist and slammed into Nox's chest.The impact shot through his body and reached his soul. Nox spat blood, and his soul was injured.Achille couldn't stand by anymore. Nox just told him not to push himself, but he wasn't taking his own advice. Then, Nox's weak will-of-the-sword shone blindingly, and then Unto the Origin appeared once more."Even under my pressure, you can use this technique? You're strong, but you're as stubborn as your mentor. You've lost your chance! Die! You'll never get here in time, Achille! Shadowkill!"The enemy leader's avatar t
