Originally, Soundra Entertainment intended to nurture Madison in the coming few years, and at the same time, Titus had been considering having this famous star marry his son.But never did he imagine that his son would be killed in the Southwest because of her!Titus wished he could skin Madison alive. "This despicable woman! I must make her suffer!"After saying this coldly, Titus put down his cigar and walked toward the back of the hall.In the back of the hall was a secret room.At the entrance of the secret room stood Jason, the cursemaster from Gungsten. Seeing Titus approaching, he quickly called out, "Mr. Soundra!""Where is your master?" Titus asked as he got closer."My master is currently casting a blood curse on Madison as you instructed.""Take me in to see!"Jason nodded quickly and then opened the stone door in front of him.With a rumble, the door opened, and a gloomy secret room appeared in front of Titus.The secret room was quite large and eerie.As Titus a
As the cursemaster from the Moste Magicke of Gungsten was casting his spell, a sudden gust of wind arose in Blathanna Sect.The cold wind howled, slamming the windows with loud bangs.Nox, who was in the room accompanying Queenie, furrowed his brows slightly when he sensed the approaching cold wind."Why is there suddenly a wind?" Queenie, unaware of what the cold wind was about, walked over to close the windows."Queenie, come back!" Nox suddenly leaped up."Huh? What's wrong, Nono?" Queenie stopped in surprise and looked at Nox with confusion.Nox didn't answer but instead waved his right hand toward the cold wind. The cold wind was hit by Nox's magick, emitting a sharp and unpleasant wail.Queenie swore she had never heard such an unpleasant sound in her life. She quickly covered her ears while exclaiming in shock, "What's that sound? It's so scary!"He hurriedly hugged Queenie and comforted her. "Queenie, it's okay! It seems that someone is seeking death by casting curses
The last four techniques were entirely Nox's own creation. The technique he was currently using, the Technique of Arts, was something he had developed himself, blending all known arcane arts into one supreme art. It embodied not only the essence of arcane arts but also the core of all Faeastian arcane arts!As he performed it, he formed a gesture with his hands and pressed his palm down on Madison's head.Boom!An indescribable, earth-shattering surge of arcane arts energy flowed into Madison's body.Meanwhile, in a secret room thousands of miles away, Jovani was deep in conversation with Titus when a sudden shock jolted him. Instinctively, his eyes darted to the small straw doll bearing Madison's photo on the altar, and much to his shock, the doll burst into flames with a thunderous roar!"Oh no! Someone's broken my blood curse!" he exclaimed, frantically forming gestures with his hands, desperate to cast the blood curse again.However, an overwhelming, unstoppable energy slamme
"Yeah." Nox then summed up the situation in a few words.Hearing that she had just had a close brush with death, Madison instantly burst into tears."But don't worry. I've broken their curse, and I've even wounded them. He won't do anything to you again for the time being," Nox reassured her.Hearing this, Madison stood up, saying, "Thank you, sir!"However, as she stood up, she forgot she was naked. As a result, her body was exposed right before Nox's eyes. The curves, the long legs, that tantalizing sanctum… Both she and Nox were left momentarily stunned, albeit for different reasons.'Dang it, I forgot I was in the middle of a bath!' Madison mused.Seeing herself standing stark naked in front of Nox, Madison nearly died of embarrassment. With a splash, she hurriedly ducked back into the bathtub. "Sir, I-I didn't mean to!"Seeing her flustered like a kitten, Nox said with a smile, "Don't worry. I didn't see anything. Alright, you're safe now. Just come out after you're done."
"Dang it! It must be that son of a bitch from Soundra Entertainment who tried to kill Madison!" Bear fumed.Suddenly, Nox squinted. "Since they've made a move, it's time for me to stretch my muscles." He turned to Bear. "Bear, take my order!"Bear got down on one knee. "Yes, milord!""Spread the word. Have Shadow Division tell everyone in Southwest Police Department to take the night off. No one shall be on duty tonight!"'Huh?' Bear blinked in confusion. "Take the night off?""That's right," said Nox."Why, milord?" Bear asked, puzzled."Because I don't want anyone bothering me tonight."Hearing this, Bear figured out what Nox was going to do. He said with a chuckle, "Got it, milord! I'll issue the orders now!""Hold on, there's one more thing.""Yes, milord?""Order Shadow Division to collect bodies throughout the entire city next morning!"Both Bear and Selina were shocked when the words "collect bodies" left Nox's lips.As Nox finished his bold proclamation, he shot in
Next was Bear. He was on the phone with the Shadow Division and giving orders.Then, he saw Selina. At this moment, she was in her bedroom, changing into her nightgown while getting ready for bed.A series of images appeared in Nox's mindsea one after another.Besides his closest and most familiar acquaintances, Nox also saw two drunk men urinating while spitting curses in the alley ahead.In addition, he saw an elderly man in a park in the distance. As the man listened to the radio, he checked out the beautiful young lady beside him, who was jogging in shorts. His eyes flickered with lust.After that, he saw a young couple by a river. With nothing on, they had sex in the open as if no one was around.Scene after scene, these livelihood activities popped up in Nox's mindsea like motion pictures projecting on a screen.However, Nox knew they weren't the information he needed.Tonight, he was looking for the group of international assassins who had sneaked into Southwest to murde
Just as the three of them were chatting, an unearthly voice rang in their ears out of the blue."Kill me, huh? I suppose you'll never get the chance in this life!"The three assassins were abruptly dumbstruck on the spot when they heard the voice."Who goes there?"At once, they drew their respective weapons.Still, it was all too late.Under the silvery moonlight, a figure suddenly descended from the sky.The pupils of the three stupefied assassins widened in shock at the sight of the figure. But before they even had time to raise their weapons, the figure formed a stroke with his right hand.Instantaneously, an energy blade struck the three individuals like a thunderbolt. A ripping sound resonated in the air, and their bodies got sliced in two in just a split second.After effortlessly killing these three assassins, Nox sprung into the air again and vanished into the night. In fact, not even once did he spare a glance at the corpses on the ground.After all, these three wer
Bang! The sound of glass breaking reached Cook's ears just as he was happily loading these exclusively made high-explosive bullets into his handgun.Upon closer look, he discovered a figure actually walking right into his room through the window.'Huh?' Cook was stunned. Then, he cursed, "Fuck! How is this possible? This building has over sixty floors. How the hell did he get in?!"Still, as the Destroyer and an assassin ranked seventh on the Shadow Web, the moment Nox's figure flitted in, Cook swiftly rolled on the spot and aimed the gun loaded with high-explosive bullets in his hand at Nox."W-Who are you?" he asked in shock.Upon hearing his question, Nox, who mystically appeared, sneered. "As someone who wants to kill me, how do you not even know who I am?"Cook was dumbfounded.He widened his eyes and took a closer look at Nox's face again. Like a shot, he recalled the scene in the surveillance footage on his computer earlier.At this moment, his pupils immediately dilated
"What a joke. Do you think that shabby saber can defeat me? Even if Sariel were here, I could still take him down. You're not a talented cultivator at all. All you care about is the decadence of mortals. Even if you risk your life when it matters most, it's still useless."You should've lived out your life in mediocrity. Enlightenment does not come to those who refuse it, and you have clearly said no to my offer, so you shall suffer in hell. It is your rightful place." The monk laughed and made hand seals. A black demonic seal came out of his palm and went straight for Atlas' vitals."I'm done for." Atlas didn't want to die like this. He shouldn't have gloated. Perhaps this wouldn't have happened. He would never rest in peace if he died while Faeast was in trouble. He could excuse himself if his defenses were taken down, but no. His defense was lax, and now his enemy was going to kill him like he was a maggot.His ancestors would rip him to shreds when he met them. Atlas regretted a
The Nox Army wanted to fight with Atlas, but Atlas roared, "Fall back! The enemy is the House of Enlightenment's leader! You're just going to get yourself killed!" He talked to them as governor-general, and Atlas charged into battle alone."You think you can stop me, Atlas? I will kill you and take the nation's fate!" Cyrus rode the wind, and Atlas risked his life. He faced Cyrus' spells and fought him head-on. Though it seemed valiant, Atlas was risking his life, and yet he couldn't get close to Cyrus. All he could do was buy some time.It wasn't pretty on the other side. The swordsman in rein used to be Sword Sect's leader's student, and his powerful swordsmanship was the bane of Mystian cultivators. Harley was burning his spirit to hold on.While the battles raged on, dark clouds hung over Imperia, and they slowly turned into skeletons, threatening to engulf the city. Dark mists traveled everywhere, covering the city. The sleeping residents were haunted by nightmares and couldn't
"That god's aura is incredibly weak now. Shit, that bastard's after White Tiger!" The Hidden Dragon Guards realized what was going on, and they told headquarters about this, but to make things worse, they lost contact with headquarters.Everyone back there was dead, including the royal guards. They were lying in pools of their own blood. There was a barrier hanging around, cutting off all contact with the outside world. The powerhouses in the palace were killed, and none survived. Curiously, the royal family living near the palace was fine.Jaculus was outside the palace. He got the message and came back from the outskirts to hold the fort. He'd been stationed at the Dragon Vein, but this was an emergency, so he had to come back.Jaculus was helpless, however. Atlas and the god were stronger than him, but their situation was unknown, and they needed him to save the situation. "Shit. Black Tortoise and Vermilion Bird are overseas, and Lord Nox is in Mystia. Sword Sect is in trouble t
Back in the regular guards' camp, Harley spat blood. He was lying in the ruins of a building, his body covered in slash marks. His Celestial technique was broken. This man was leagues above him. Celestial techniques were useless. The swordsman was too powerful."Magic Mountain's techniques? But their swordsmen are on good terms with the lord!" Harley stared at the man in green. He defeated Harley using Magic Mountain's techniques.Magic Mountain and Mystia had always been at loggerheads. They had slain many demons and monsters throughout the years, and their swordsmanship was a bane for the cultivators."I wonder how Nox managed to make a Mystian like you loyal to him. Yes, I am a Magic Mountain swordsman. Was, to be honest. I was kicked out a hundred years ago. My master said my heart is astray. How laughable. I have killed demons over ninety years, and hundreds of them have died to my blade! My heart is not astray!"Your sins are innumerable, Harley, and you must be slain! White
All of a sudden, the soldiers let go of their weapons. They had a look of fanaticism on their faces as they throttled themselves to death. The party went on, and the bluebloods enjoyed every moment, oblivious to the incoming danger.The monk passed through the residence smoothly, with all the soldiers and guards throttling themselves to death. Suddenly, everyone noticed a monk in red robes in the party hall. The drunk guests thought this was an event arranged by Atlas."We have a monk here. Wonder what kind of show you're presenting," a portly rich man joked, laughing loudly."Show? I am the leader of an evil sect. No show, but I do have a scripture to share. The government calls my sect evil, and they claim the monks are agents of darkness. You are not much better yourself. Omitofo."The old monk chanted once more, and the look on everyone's faces changed. Some knelt and cried their hearts out. Some groveled and didn't even notice that their heads were bleeding. They talked about
Back in his residence, Atlas called a feast and invited the bluebloods of Imperia. He was glowing during the event and could never be happier. He used to be a declining aristocrat with nothing but the title of nobility.However, his luck turned for the better when he got older. He followed Nox into battle at Heaven's Cage, Vertolt, and Winterosch, making him a true lord. The Limerents controlled the nation, and he was a prince. He could even have some power over the nation or at least be one of the top dogs in Faeast.If Nox became emperor, then all the better. Perhaps he could be a more intimate part of the royal family. He drank to his heart's content and partied with the most desired people in Imperia. Nothing could be better."Life is short, people. Drink!"…The Ice Temple's vice-Lord was in the regular guards' encampment. This was a critical junction, and yet Atlas wasn't at his post. Instead, he was having a party. The vice-Lord had a bad feeling about this, but he had no p
Harley sneered, having nothing but disdain for Atlas. "I can't believe the master would employ a shithead like you."Atlas laughed. "You think you're so high and mighty, but you're also Lord Nox's lapdog now. I am his subordinate, and we have a close relationship. I'm also the uncle of the emperor. That makes me Lord Nox's great-uncle," bragged Atlas."Dumbass. Just do your fucking job. Vermilion Bird and Black Tortoise told me the Mousses might try something," Harley cursed.The mention of the Mousses made Atlas panic, but he calmed himself down and snored. "The Mousses? They won't dare do anything when I'm here. If they show up, I'll kick their ass! I command thirty thousand units. If they come to Imperia, it'll be the last thing they see!" Atlas was confident.Harley was speechless. 'My word, how can he be such a braggart?'With thirty thousand Nox Army units in Imperia, combined with the Forbidden Army, the regular guards, and 200 thousand elites protecting Imperia, nothing co
Vermilion Bird said, "Azure Dragon used to be an Advanced Eight Gates. After the Mousses had him under their control, he became a Supreme. Judging by these photos, he's gotten more powerful since then."'More powerful?' Nineve knew how the cultivators were ranked. Top Legend Realms were another kind of life form entirely. In Faeast, a Supreme could be made a lord. An undefeatable Supreme would be made a ruler. A Sovereign was made every five hundred years, while a ruler was made every century.Supremes appeared once every decade or so. "I don't get it. You three obviously found some power source, and with Nox's help, you leveled up. Azure Dragon only has the Mousses. How'd he level up so fast?"If the Mousses were so powerful, they wouldn't have to resort to assassinations or betrayals."Not the Mousses. It's all Azure Dragon. He's our captain. He's a very talented and cunning man. Emphasis on talent. He's so strong that not even three of us can compare to him, combined. The only g
Elizabeth said nothing but went red and hung her head low, causing Black Tortoise to panic."Uh oh. If you want him, you'll have to fight for him. That's all I can say, but the lord does think highly of you." He laughed."Shut it, Black Tortoise. You're talking nonsense here!" Vermilion Bird snapped. "See you, Your Majesty." She then took Black Tortoise and left the room quickly. They had work to do.The duo led most of the Shadow Division members back to Faeast. After the incident of Brundela, Faeast's fate was going strong, and the people were excited. However, beneath that excitement was unseen danger.Vermilion Bird and Black Tortoise came back to Northstate's governor-general's place and met up with Nineve. Black Tortoise said solemnly, "What happened, Your Highness? We need the details."Nineve looked exhausted, and there were dark circles under her eyes. She had been working hard in Nox's absence. "Honestly, Atlas… I mean, the Defender of the Lord hasn't been pulling his we
