"Don't worry about it. Just go handle your work," Arnold said.

"Ella, let's meet up when you're free!" Matthew added with a smile.

"Sure!" Elara replied cheerfully.

As Matthew walked out of Marlet Hotel, he could no longer contain his excitement. He practically danced with joy.

Patting the briefcase under his arm, he chuckled to himself. "With this contract signed, it'll be a breeze to lure in a few more families. What a bunch of fools, all dancing to my tune!"

He murmured, "Soon, all the companies under these families will be working to strengthen the Carter family. The Carters are finally going to be back on top. I really am a genius!"

Soon, the Seymours returned home.

Marion said, her face glowing with excitement. "Haha! I'm finally going to be a wealthy lady. Those snobbish women who used to look down on me will be lining up to curry favor. It's such a satisfying feeling!"

Arnold gave her an exasperated look. He said, "Nothing's set in stone yet. Stop daydreaming."

    Marion shouted at Gideon, "Shut up!" Her face turned ashen with fury as she pointed a trembling finger at him. "Nothing decent ever comes out of your mouth, you disgusting man! You don't want to see the Seymour family succeed, do you? "Let me tell you, Gideon. You'll go to the courthouse and divorce Elara immediately. You're unworthy of being my son-in-law. Who do you think you are?"Gideon's face darkened. Marion's insults had come at him time and time again, and though he'd brushed them off, her relentless disdain was starting to wear on him. If it weren't for Arnold's kindness, he would have left long ago.Turning to Elara, Gideon asked, "What do you think?"Elara hesitated, caught off guard.Marion urged, "Ella, what are you waiting for? Get a divorce. Soon, you'll be the heiress to a respected family name, and there are plenty of eligible young men out there. Besides, you like Matthew, don't you? I know you two would be perfect together."Arnold pounded his fist on the ta

    Joseph quickly reassured, raising his hands in a calming gesture. "Mr. Seymour, please don't be upset. I mean no harm. I'm here to bring you some gifts."Arnold narrowed his eyes, suspicion lacing his tone. "Gift? What kind of trick are you trying to pull?"Flashing an apologetic smile, Joseph insisted, "Mr. Seymour, you really misunderstood me. I just wanted to make up for my previous offense to Ms. Seymour. Although I've already apologized, I felt it wasn't enough. So this time, representing my father, I came personally to deliver a grand gift."He gestured with a wave of his hand. "Bring it out!"Two men approached, carrying a bright red chest to the front door. They set it down and opened it, revealing a breathtaking sight.Arnold and his family stood frozen, wide-eyed and speechless.Inside the chest were stacks of cash, a green sea of money exuding the unmistakable allure of wealth.Joseph grinned. "Mr. Seymour, this is 9,999,000 dollars as a little token of our appreciati

    "The gifts that Durans gave have nothing to do with Matthew," Gideon said flatly.Marion scoffed, her tone dripping with disdain. "You idiot, you still don't get it? The Seymour family is about to rise alongside the Carters and might even get the Avila family's favor. We're set to become a major power in Goldspire."She sneered, clearly enjoying herself. "Nino is just scared. That's why he's come bearing gifts, apologizing, and trying to curry favor with us."Shaking her head in disdain, she continued, "Five years ago, you were considered a capable man in Goldspire. But now, it seems those five years of farming have fried your brain. You've let the Snow family slip into your hands, and you're doing a terrible job." Marion scoffed. "I wouldn't be surprised if you ran the whole thing into the ground. It'd have been better off in Cormac's hands."She then sneered. "Here's an idea. Why don't you just merge Snow Corporation into Seymour Corporation?"Gideon's eyes darkened, his patie

    However, things didn't turn out as Arnold had hoped. Gideon and Elara remained silent throughout the entire drive, leaving Arnold visibly frustrated. Upon arriving at Goldspire Hotel, Arnold had reserved a modest private dining room and ordered a feast of exquisite dishes—a splurge for the family. Before long, the dishes were served. "Wow, this is amazing! I'm going all in tonight. Forget about dieting for now," Elara exclaimed enthusiastically, her eyes lighting up at the spread before them. Elara wasn't overweight, but like most young women, dieting was an ongoing project for her. Just as they were about to dig in, the doorbell of the private dining room rang. A sharply dressed man—clearly the hotel manager—stepped into the room, his expression apologetic. He said, "I'm terribly sorry to bother you all, but I must ask you to move to a different private room." Arnold frowned slightly and asked, "What do you mean?" The manager adjusted his tie and explained, "A

    "Mom, why don't we just switch to another private room? We should at least show Mr. Horne some respect," Elara urged softly.Marion, already hesitant after learning it was the heir of the Horne family, caught the disdainful look on the hotel manager's face. Her temper flared instantly.She snapped, her arms crossing defensively, "No! We're not switching! I don't care if it's the Horne family or even the city mayor. They're not getting this room!"Arnold and Elara stared at her in shock. Had she lost her mind?Marion's voice cut through their disbelief as she pointed toward the door. "Now, get out of here and stop interrupting our meal."Damian's expression darkened. As someone firmly established in Goldspire's upper circles, it was rare for anyone to defy him, especially over something as trivial as a room.He spoke again, his tone restrained but icy, "Switch to the room next door. I'll even cover your bill for tonight's meal. How does that sound?"Marion's voice rose, brimming

    Damian immediately understood John's intention.This was a test—a way for John to gauge the Horne family's influence. Damian smiled faintly and said, "I was only worried about keeping you waiting, Mr. Tedd. But if this interests you, then let's see how it plays out."With a wave of his hand, he ordered the guards, "Let them go."Turning to Marion, he added coldly, "You said you wanted to make a call? Go ahead. I'd love to see who you think can stand against me.""Just wait!" Marion sneered, her expression fierce as she dialed Matthew's number.At that moment, Matthew was busy negotiating a deal with another minor family, using his usual underhanded tactics to pressure them into signing a contract.When his phone rang, he answered it casually, "Mrs. Seymour, what's the matter?"Marion's voice was sharp with anger. She said, "Matthew! I've been assaulted. Come to Room 666 of Goldspire Hotel now!"Matthew's eyes gleamed with a mix of greed and opportunity. "What? Someone dared t

    Matthew felt a wave of dizziness wash over him. Asking Damian to apologize and pay a million dollars in compensation? That was practically a death sentence for him!Damian's expression was ice cold. He said, "What's wrong? Cat got your tongue? She says I should apologize and pay her a million dollars in compensation. What do you think? Should I?" Matthew's forehead was slick with sweat. "Well... This..." Marion interjected, her voice sharp, "Matthew, what are you afraid of? You have the Avila family behind you. Didn't Ms. Avila herself say she values you? Just call her!" Damian raised an eyebrow, his tone curious. "Ms. Avila? Rachel Avila? She values you?" Marion tilted her chin up, pride gleaming in her eyes. "That's right! Ms. Avila has taken a keen interest in him. She even transferred 30 million dollars to his account to support him. She plans to invest in his new company in the future." She crossed her arms smugly. "Damian, the Horne family may be stronger than

    With his tone firm, Matthew said to Marion, "Here's the deal. Either you apologize or our partnership ends. I'll retrieve the contract and tear it up right in front of you. The choice is yours." Marion was at a loss. If the deal fell through, her dream of living as a wealthy socialite would vanish into thin air.Arnold's face darkened, his frustration barely contained. It was Elara who finally spoke, her tone soft but persuasive, "Mom, honestly, you were being arrogant and overbearing. Matthew is right. You should apologize to Mr. Horne. It's not that big of a deal." Not that big of a deal? Marion's face burned with humiliation as the hotel manager barely suppressed a smirk in the background. Still, she had no choice. No matter how much she loathed the idea, she had to swallow her pride. "Mr. Horne, I'm sorry," she muttered, her voice low. Damian asked, stepping back, "What was that? You called yourself a woman of high status. I'm not sure I can bear the weight of you

    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. "Yes, we are. The Light Coun

    "Hm?" Pacino was taken aback.With a meaningful look, he asked, "Ms. Corthopp, what do you want to learn that for? The Hellrend Severance Technique is a vicious and sinister art. As a member of The Light Council, how could you study something like that?"Orabella smiled. "No technique is inherently good or evil. It all depends on how it's used."Pacino was no fool. Lowering his voice, he asked, "Ms. Corthopp, are you planning to strip Elara's pure-essence core?"She replied, "If the opportunity arises, I will.""For Gideon? Tsk! It seems Gideon holds quite a lot of weight in your heart." A strange smile spread across Pacino's face.Orabella asked again, "Mr. Albe, would you be willing to teach me? Consider it a favor. I'll repay you in the future."Pacino laughed and said, "Ms Corthopp, you hold a prestigious position in The Light Council. Having someone like you owe me a favor, that's a deal well worth making. I'll teach you the Hellrend Severance Technique right now.""I'd ap

    They had actually suffered a setback at the hands of some snot-nosed kid. If word got out, people would die laughing."How much farther are you planning to retreat?"At that moment, Gideon stopped in his tracks, took a deep breath to steady himself, and spoke in a detached tone, "Honestly, we're not even enemies. Ivo is dead. Why make an enemy of me for his sake?"Think about the consequences of crossing me. I could just leave Bandit's Hollow, but from that moment on, none of you would ever know peace again."Pacino's face darkened. "Are you threatening me?"Gideon shook his head. "I'm simply stating a fact. Making an enemy of me over a dead man is not a wise move."Besides, I have means of dealing an irreversible blow to you all. Initially, I intended to take you by surprise, but since I've already mentioned it, let me show you. Be careful!"Gideon waved his hand, and immediately, a mist began to spread.In an instant, the hooligans were horrified. They frantically retreated.

    "No!" Mea screamed hysterically.The broken blade was pulled out. Ivo's corpse collapsed to the ground like a pile of rotten flesh, making Mea dizzy, her vision going black."You're not dead! How is that possible?" Pacino was in disbelief.His aged eyes flashed with sharp light as he scrutinized Gideon, realizing that not only was Gideon alive, but his energy was still as powerful as ever, too.It was as if the past half hour inside that eerie mist hadn't affected him in the slightest.How could this be?Gideon sneered. "What? Disappointed? That mist is indeed strange, but unfortunately, it has no effect on me.""Impossible!" "Nothing is impossible. There's a lot you don't know." Gideon was full of mockery, but his face quickly turned cold. "Now, I'll give you a chance. Hand over Elara, and we can go our separate ways peacefully. Otherwise… suffer the consequences!"Pacino sneered. "Gideon, so what if you're still alive? Do you really think you can escape?""Pacino, kill him

    "This eerie mist, once it invades the body, brings unspeakable disaster and doom. Some die sudden and violent deaths, while some melt into puddles of pus. Some wither away entirely."The variety of deaths is truly horrifying. If Gideon has been in that mist for half an hour, he will have already reached his limits. He's doomed," Pacino explained.Orabella said, "If the mist is so powerful, and you can control it, doesn't that make you unbeatable?""No, no, no." Pacino shook his head and explained, "We can't control the mist. But we can control that stone gate, sealing Bandit's Hollow. And once the gate is sealed, or rather, once it falls shut, the mist naturally emerges."Orabella suddenly understood.So, as long as the stone gate was opened, the mist would disappear.Pacino said, "Ms. Corthopp, are you thinking of opening the gate to dispel the mist and save Gideon? Don't even think about it."She retorted, "Aren't you after Gideon's Solar Titan Body? That's a rare treasure. If

    Ivo used the last of his strength to unleash an attack, successfully blocking Orabella. In doing so, he also shattered Gideon and Orabella's final chance at negotiation."Gideon, you're as good as dead. You destroyed Moblathos. How could I not take revenge? Killing you won't be enough."Once you fall, I'll head to Goldspire and butcher every last man in the Snow family, hacking them to pieces while they're still alive. As for the women, they'll all become my cultivation furnaces, used and discarded until they die."As for Umbra… That wretched woman dared to side with you? Unforgivable! Once I obtain Elara's pure-essence core and ascend to the next level of power, I'll crush Umbra beneath my feet and make her my obedient slave!"Ivo's face twisted with malice, his sinister laughter never ceasing.Gideon had already made up his mind. Ivo had to die.Orabella retreated to Gideon's side, her expression grave. "This is bad. Escaping Bandit's Hollow won't be easy."Seeing that Gideon

    Pacino's eyes darkened. He actually discarded his serpent-headed staff and engaged Gideon in hand-to-hand combat.What shocked Gideon was that Pacino's strength was terrifying. Every punch was devastatingly heavy.Most crucially, Pacino's combat skills were extraordinarily refined. Out of ten punches, he could land eight on Gideon, whereas Gideon could only land two or three in return.The difference was clear."Heh! Kid, how does it feel? You might have raw power, but you don't know how to use it. Your fighting technique is pathetic. And you think you're fit to brawl with me? What a joke!"The moment those words fell, Gideon took a heavy blow. Pain shot through his entire body, and he crashed straight into the ground.The other hooligans unleashed a flurry of deadly attacks, bombarding the massive crater."Gideon!" Orabella cried out.Just then, a brilliant light shot skyward, slicing through the hooligans' attacks.Gideon burst out of the crater, looking battered. He panted
