Chapter 156

Author: Jason Chord
Matthew stumbled into the living room, flustered and unsure how to face Marion. He had taken Elara home, but now, she was missing. This was a complete disaster.

If anything had happened to Elara, he would be done for. Rachel would certainly be upset, leaving him with a terrible reputation and enormous losses.

"Mrs. Seymour, what brings you here?"

"Matthew, about last night…"

"Mrs. Seymour, let me explain. Ella probably wasn't ready, and I may have been a bit impulsive. It upset her, and she ran off. I don't know where she went, but don't worry. I've already arranged for people to search for her."

Marion was momentarily taken aback. So, Matthew still had no idea what had actually happened last night.

She rolled her eyes and told him through gritted teeth, "Matthew, listen to me. It was Gideon who ruined your moment with Ella last night."

"Gideon?"

"That's right. That jerk broke in, took Ella away, and dropped her off at my house. I'm telling you the truth."

"Fuck!" Matthew flew

    "Alright. Here's the deal…" Matthew briefly explained the situation.After listening, Fisher stroked his chin and said, "Are you sure the Snow family doesn't have any real backing from the Horne family? If that's true, I can step in. But if…""Fisher, what's there to fear? I've got this under control! Even if the Horne family gets involved, I can appeal to Rachel. "Wouldn't the Horne family have to show respect to Rachel? The bottom line is, there's no real risk. If you're not up for it, I'll just find another big shot in the underworld.""Hey, hey. There's no need for that, Mr. Carter! I didn't say no."Fisher had always regarded himself as above Matthew because the Carter family was only a second- or third-tier family, while he was a respected figure in Goldspire's underworld scene.However, things were different now. The Carter family was poised to rise, and Matthew had the potential to become Goldspire's top bachelor.Fisher needed to maintain this relationship carefully.

    "What are you here for?" Gideon asked as he entered the living room. Seeing Elara leisurely sipping coffee and seemingly in good spirits, he was somewhat surprised. Was she not here to complain?Elara set down the coffee cup and said calmly, "I heard from my dad that you went to Matthew's villa last night and brought me back.""That's right. Don't get the wrong idea. It was your father who reminded me that we're not officially divorced yet. If you and Matthew were to get involved, it would look like I got cheated on."It would affect my reputation. Once the cooling-off period ends and our divorce is finalized, you can do whatever you want. It won't concern me anymore."Elara frowned slightly.What was Gideon doing? Shouldn't he be trying to reconcile with her? Why did it feel like he couldn't wait for the divorce to happen?Was this some kind of reverse psychology? It had to be.Thinking of this, she felt more at ease. She lifted her chin and huffed coldly. "Either way, I came

    This could cause some trouble."Get him! Break his arms and legs, so he knows what real pain feels like!" Fisher ordered decisively.At his comment, a few burly men behind him charged forward."Stop!"At that moment, Fred arrived with a group of guards, placing themselves between Gideon and the attackers."You thugs dare to barge into private property and attempt to harm someone in broad daylight? Do you have no regard for the law?""The law?" Fisher sneered. "Sorry. I don't care about the law. What are you going to do about it?"Fred was speechless.However, Gideon spoke up, "Tsk, tsk! I wonder where you get your confidence from, openly disregarding the law. Is it because that useless Matthew is backing you?"Did he tell you that the Avila family supports him and that with them as his shield, you can act without fear?"Fisher's heart skipped a beat. Surprised, he asked, "How do you know that?"Gideon merely smiled and said nothing. He pulled out his phone and sent a text me

    With police cars, fighter jets, and soldiers, it was a lineup and display these gangsters had never seen before. Their legs went weak, and they began trembling uncontrollably.Fisher's face turned ashen.Even the Snows were terrified, thinking they must have committed some grave offense for the government to come knocking."What's going on?"Elara was filled with confusion and unease. She had never witnessed such a scene before and didn't dare to even breathe too loudly.Suddenly, a thought popped into her head. She turned to look at Gideon, who was still sitting in the main living room, as though nothing had happened. He continued to sip his coffee leisurely.Could it be…Did he summon all these police cars, fighter jets, and soldiers?That was impossible. How could Gideon possibly have such influence? Elara didn't want to believe it.At this point, the police cars stopped, and several hundred officers got out. Three thousand soldiers also halted, their gazes fixed on Fisher

    The butler left to make arrangements.Not long after, news came back. The butler reported, "Mr. Carter, everything at the Snow residence seems normal.""Are you sure?""There's no doubt about it."Matthew frowned, cursing internally at Fisher for playing games.Could it be that Fisher didn't even take anyone to the Snow residence or follow through on his task? That damn idiot!"Find Fisher. I'm going to skin him alive! That bastard dared to mess with me!"Matthew was furious.…The next morning, the butler rushed into Matthew's room, panicked. "Mr. Carter, something big has happened!""What could be so important? Let me sleep.""Mr. Carter, wake up. Fisher has been arrested. It's not just him, but every single one of his men has been caught, too.""What?" Matthew bolted upright.The butler continued, "This is the latest information, and it's from a reliable source. They say soldiers were mobilized yesterday to arrest Fisher and his 300 men. They've all been taken to the de

    Kian left Avila Group with a dark expression. On his way back, he wasted no time in contacting his company's project department to terminate all collaborations with the Carter family."That little punk. I want to see just how much of a splash the Carter family can make. I'll wait for you to come crawling back to me and begging to resume our partnership." He sneered coldly.He didn't believe for a second that Matthew could earn Rachel's favor. He knew exactly what kind of person Matthew was.…Meanwhile, Matthew was reporting the situation in Rachel's office. He started by mentioning that he had already canceled contracts with families like the Seymour family. Rachel nodded approvingly. "You've done a good job."Matthew was overjoyed. To be praised by Rachel felt like pure bliss."Ms. Avila, don't worry. I'll prove my abilities to you," he said eagerly. "By the way, when will you be investing in me?" he asked, his voice filled with anticipation.Rachel sneered inwardly, but her

    Matthew was completely stunned after getting slapped. "Dad, what did I do?"Jacob roared, "What did you do? Because of you, the Lawson family has terminated all their collaborations with us."The company is already struggling, barely staying afloat with those projects from the Lawsons. Now that they've been cut, the company is completely paralyzed. We're one step away from bankruptcy!"Matthew finally understood. It had to be because he had embarrassed Kian at Avila Group earlier. That old man was getting his revenge."Dad, don't worry. The Lawsons won't be able to stay smug for long. Give it some time, and Kian will be kneeling in front of us, begging for forgiveness.""Bullshit!" Jacob slapped him again. "You little punk! Are you out of your mind? The company is on the brink of bankruptcy, and you're still spouting this nonsense! Have some shame!"Feeling wronged, Matthew protested, "Dad, I'm telling the truth! I was going to tell you yesterday, but I didn't come home.""Tell

    "Ms. Avila, here is my proposal. Please take a look."In the office, Matthew handed the proposal to Rachel, waiting with eager anticipation.Truthfully, Rachel didn't have the slightest interest in looking at the proposal. She didn't even want to flip it open.However, for Gideon's sake, she decided to put some effort into putting Matthew and the Carter family through the wringer. Suppressing her impatience, she opened the proposal.Upon reading it, she found it to be complete garbage. The proposal that Jacob had arranged for someone to write had some level of competence, but unfortunately, it was entirely unworthy of Rachel's standards.For a second- or third-rate business owner, the proposal might have seemed decent. But for someone of Rachel's caliber and position, reading it was nothing but a waste of ten minutes.Matthew asked, "Ms. Avila, what do you think?""It's alright," she replied with a forced smile.Hearing this, he was overjoyed. "Ms. Avila, does that mean I've pa

    After Orabella departed, Umbra asked, "Why didn't you prevent her from leaving? There's a chance she might be meeting with The Light Council members. Stay vigilant and don't let yourself be caught off guard and deceived!" Gideon shrugged, gazing indifferently at the night sky. "I know what I'm doing," he replied. "Orabella has some intentions, but my instincts tell me she's not a threat to me at the moment. Besides, if she was determined to go, I wouldn't have been able to stop her anyway." He then asked, "Speaking of which, how is your physical conditioning progressing? You're currently no match for Orabella." "It's challenging," Umbra sighed. "Cultivating the pure-essence physique isn't simple. It's similar to how developing your Solar Titan Physique requires the right timing, environment, companions, and opportunities."Actually, I'm quite jealous of Elara. Her pure essence core has fully awakened. Once she regains consciousness, her cultivation will advance rapidly, and sh

    Eduardo yelled, but it was too late to turn back. The punch smashed through the ranks of Windrunners, leaving a trail of devastation. In a flash, the scene was one of bloodshed and chaos. Countless Black Raptors and warriors from the Windrunners were slain. The air was filled with the sound of rushing wind. Blood rained down from the sky. Eduardo, drenched in blood, held Zephara protectively in his arms. Witnessing the bloody and brutal scene, his heart felt as if it were being torn apart. Thunder rumbled. Yet, it wasn't over. A Blood Moon Tempest began to rise. It was a sword technique unleashed by Gideon—the Blood Moon Tempest. "Dad!" Zephara was already terrified by the previous punch.And now, seeing the storm resembling a blood dragon, she couldn't help but shiver. "I didn't expect him to be so powerful! We underestimated him!" Eduardo was filled with regret.These were the top members of the clan, and now, thousands had been lost, dealing a significant blow that great

    Atop the Black Raptors, lines of armored warriors known as the Windrunners stood ready. The foremost Black Raptor was exceptionally large. Clearly, it was an Alpha Black Raptor. Riding on the back of this Alpha Black Raptor were a man and a woman.Gideon had encountered the woman previously. She was Zephara, known as Ms. Tempest of Windrunners. The middle-aged man next to her was unsurprisingly the leader of Windrunners, Zephara's father, Eduardo Tempest. "So, you're the one who attacked my daughter!" "And who are you?" "I'm Eduardo Tempest, head of Windrunners." "I see when I deal with the younger one, the older one steps in. If I defeat you, will your father come after me, too?" Gideon taunted with a laugh. "How dare you!" Eduardo exploded with anger.Gideon chose not to speak further. He activated his Solar Titan Physique, lighting up the night sky as if it were midday. "Let's fight," he declared. "But remember. You'll have to face the consequences, and I hope you won'

    "Is this truly the Mystic Supreme Bone?" Gideon asked, still in disbelief that a fragment of a ninth-level apex overbeast's bone was now in his possession. Orabella smiled and replied, "You've got incredible luck. They've unknowingly set the stage for you, and they must be furious about it now." "By the way, what exactly can this Mystic Supreme Bone do? It has a majestic presence, but what is its actual use?" Gideon asked."You aren't familiar with it, are you? The Mystic Supreme Bone has numerous remarkable uses," Orabella explained seriously. "Firstly, it can be used to create weapons. The bone is extremely durable. "Although this small finger bone alone isn't sufficient to make a weapon, you can refine it and integrate it into your own hand, allowing it to merge with your finger bone.""Merge with my finger bone?" Gideon asked."Yes," Orabella said with anticipation, "If you succeed in the fusion, your finger bone will become unbreakable, and the power of a single finger st

    At the same time, Gideon and Pacino sprang into action, causing the three forces to clash and the glowing object to be tossed aside. As it landed, everyone could see it clearly. "A bone?" they exclaimed in surprise. They had anticipated discovering a rare treasure or a divine weapon, not a mere piece of bone. Upon closer inspection, it appeared to be a finger bone. It was as large as a palm and incomplete. It was evident that it couldn't belong to a human. It was clearly from a beast."Mystic Supreme Bone." Orabella gasped in amazement. At that moment, Pacino's eyelids twitched uncontrollably, and his aged eyes flashed with a fierce intensity. "Gideon, seize it quickly. That's the finger bone of an apex overbeast. It is Mystic Supreme Bone, with countless incredible applications. We can't let it slip away." In reality, as soon as Orabella had cried out, Gideon had already activated his Solar Titan Physique, exuding an air of dominance. "Doombringer Knuckle!" he shouted,

    "Harmoni, are you positive there's treasure here?" Brantley asked, wiping the sweat from his brow. He was standing at the bottom of the large pit, peering up at Harmoni with a doubtful expression. "I've dug this far, and there's still nothing. Is it possible you got it wrong?""No, it's definitely here," Harmoni insisted confidently. "Just keep trying." With no other option, Brantley resumed his digging. Just then, Gideon appeared at the doorway. Harmoni spun around, her eyes narrowing in surprise. "What are you doing here?" she exclaimed. "Hmm?" Gideon looked utterly confused. "Do we know each other?"Harmoni pressed her lips together and stayed quiet.Earlier, during the epic clash between Brightbane Sect and Naesbrey Fortress on the eastern plains, Gideon appeared and defended Umbra from Draven and his allies. He showcased remarkable strength during that encounter. Both Harmoni and Brantley had witnessed the battle, leaving them with a lasting impression of Gideon.W

    Gideon looked at Orabella with indifference and said, "Quit having your sights set on Elara!" "You think too highly of me." "What do you mean?" Gideon asked, but Orabella didn't respond. Instead, she turned away and left. Her hands, tucked inside her sleeves, had turned bluish, a sign of frostbite from the pure essence energy. Earlier, Orabella had indeed tried to use the Hellrend Severance Technique to seize Elara's pure essence core. However, she had not anticipated the strength of the core and nearly faced a backlash. Luckily, she stopped just in time, so only her hands ended up frostbitten.… A series of bombing sounds echoed at the entrance and exit.Cinque and Sei hurried over, furious at the sight. "You kids have a lot of guts coming to Bandit's Hollow to wreak havoc! Who gave you the audacity to do this?"As they spoke, a massive handprint struck toward them. Brantley glanced up, his eyes gleaming like lightning. He launched a punch. With a loud boom, the ha

    "We're almost there."Under the night sky, a massive winged beast raced through the air. On its back sat a man and a woman—Harmoni and Brantley."Harmoni, what exactly is this treasure you keep talking about?""Let's keep a little mystery. You'll know when we get there. But…" Harmoni's expression grew serious. "This treasure isn't going to be easy to obtain.""What do you mean?""Up ahead is Bandit's Hollow. The treasure is hidden within it. But Bandit's Hollow is home to seven fearsome hooligans. We are no match for them."Brantley smirked. "Then, why the hell are we even going?"Harmoni replied, "Talonclaw has some history with the leader of the seven hooligans. My grandfather once fought alongside him, so there's a bit of a connection."But my grandfather has long since passed. Our clan hasn't contacted him in years. I don't know if he'll honor my grandfather's memory and let us take the treasure."Brantley frowned. "If the treasure is in Bandit's Hollow, wouldn't they have

    As everyone knew, the Spirale Clan controlled highly advanced technological weaponry, a power that many coveted. Even the beast tribes kept a watchful eye on them, waiting for an opportunity.Once The Light Council and Gideon's forces launched their attack, chaos would inevitably follow. Various factions—including the beast tribes and those apex overbeasts—would all get involved, each seeking a share of the spoils.If word of this got out, it would shake nations across the world."This is big!""This isn't just any battle. It's an upheaval!""Gideon, Ms. Corthopp, you aren't messing with us, are you? You're seriously going after the Spirale Clan?"The seven hooligans suddenly felt that Gideon storming into Bandit's Hollow to humiliate them wasn't such a big deal.After all, he was now planning to attack the Spirale Clan.They could feel their perception of him shifting once again, elevating Gideon's status to an entirely new level.Orabella nodded.
