Chapter 78

Author: Jason Chord
There were two good news for Ronald.

First, Zane had been taken into police custody. While it was unlikely that he would face a harsh sentence, at least it had delivered a significant blow to the Farrell family, and Zane had been humbled.

Secondly, the promised 300 million dollars had finally been transferred into his account. The debts were settled.

Now, his focus shifted to keeping the business afloat.

In high spirits, Ronald drove to Gideon's villa in Beaker Island to meet Lucinda and Waverly.

"Dad!" Waverly called out as he entered.

"Waverly," Ronald replied, his voice cheerful.

Seeing Waverly looking thinner than before tore at Ronald's heart.

Ronald nearly broke down in tears. He pulled Waverly into a tight embrace and comforted her, "It's over now. Don't worry. That bastard Zane has been arrested."

"Really?" Waverly asked, her voice filled with hope.

Ronald replied, his tone steady, "Yes. But don't get your hopes up. It's just temporary, and there's no guarantee

    Brody let out a relieved sigh. Killing off street-level thugs wasn't a problem, but this… The underworld of Goldspire was about to undergo a dramatic shift. Brody knew it well. Zane's mention of Owen wasn't to be taken lightly.Owen was a top-tier assassin. He'd reportedly joined a world-class assassination organization, eliminating countless powerful figures. While Leopold and Nino were strong, even they would stand no chance against an international assassin of Owen's caliber. It was both tragic and ironic. Leopold and Nino had just wiped out the Yovarian Guild, strengthening their forces, only to meet an untimely end.The balance of the Goldspire underworld would be thrown into chaos.Brody said carefully, "Mr. Farrell, with Leopold and Nino gone, the underworld will be thrown into disarray. We could use this opportunity to gather power, unite forces, and create a new organization under the Farrell family banner."Zane scoffed, his voice determined, "Gather power? What n

    The night was dark, and the wind howled—a perfect setting for bloodshed.Goldspire's underworld was destined for chaos.A team of elite assassins was on the move, their targets clearly marked. These killers had roamed the globe, and eliminating key figures in Goldspire's criminal world posed little challenge.Within 30 minutes, Owen received a triumphant update. The first twelve faction leaders had been eliminated.Zane said, his admiration evident, "Incredible! These international assassins operate like they were born for this world."…Meanwhile, at Monarchy Club, Nino was enjoying drinks with his crew when an urgent report interrupted their time.A subordinate burst in, breathless. "Boss, I have bad news for you. Leaders of three of our allied factions have been assassinated!""What?" Nino exclaimed, sobering up instantly."How did this happen?" Nino asked.The man said, "No idea. They were taken out in their bedrooms, without a sound. And it's not just our people. Leaders

    This was Henry's terrifying power. As an internationally renowned elite assassin, severely injured as he was, he remained calm and darted toward the exit with impressive speed."Facing death, and still trying to run?" Henry sneered, his voice laced with contempt. "You really think too highly of yourself," he added, his tone cold and mocking. With a powerful leap, Henry pounced toward his prey. The assassin's face turned pale with fear. At the very last moment, a cold gleam shot through the air toward Henry. Alarmed, Henry was forced to abandon his attack on the assassin to intercept the gleam. It was a dagger.The blade collided with Henry's machete, ringing with a sharp metallic resonance. Henry's machete shattered. By then, the assassin had already escaped the encirclement, aided by an accomplice. "Chase them down!" Henry roared. Pulling out his phone, he immediately reported the incident to Nino and contacted other leaders, warning them to stay on high al

    "Owen, now that you're back, can't you stick around for a while? It's been ages since we hung out," Zane said. "Zane, if it weren't for a mission, I wouldn't even be here a week," Owen replied. Zane raised a brow. "What kind of job brings you to Goldspire? Don't tell me you're here to take out some big shot." Owen didn't bother hiding the truth. "Not quite. I'm here investigating something." "Oh? Care to share? Maybe I can help out." Owen leaned forward, lowering his voice. "It's like this. I'm part of Black Sky Organization, and the second-in-command is an incredibly powerful figure known as Reaper—ranked ninth on the Shadow Ranking of Hitman Guild."However, he's recently gone missing, and we haven't been able to contact him. The last place he was seen was here in Goldspire. The organization sent me to investigate and figure out what's going on.""Got it." Zane nodded thoughtfully. "You got anything on Reaper? I can put my people on it." Owen shook his head. "Reaper is

    "How dare you!" Owen roared, his voice filled with lethal intent.A cloud slid over the moon, dimming the light, and in that instant, Owen moved. He wasn't called one of Black Sky Organization's top assassins for nothing. His skill was undeniable.In the blink of an eye, he was in front of Gideon. His dagger was aimed directly at Gideon's heart while his spiked fist lunged toward Gideon's head. Those steel spikes weren't for show—one hit, and it'd leave his skull riddled with holes."Go to hell, you bastard!" Owen sneered, his eyes flashing with cruel confidence.But suddenly, his expression froze. Gideon wasn't there anymore. "What the hell?" Owen thought."You're too slow," a calm and mocking voice from behind him said. "How did someone like you even make it as an assassin?"The sound sent chills through Owen. His body tensed instinctively. He thought this was unbelievable.Despite his shock, his instincts kicked in. Twisting his body in a way only someone with years of comb

    Inside the villa, Zane paced anxiously, a bad feeling gnawing at him. Something was wrong, but he just couldn't put his finger on what."Mr. Farrell!" Brody burst into the room, practically tripping over himself. His face was pale with terror.Zane's heart skipped a beat. "What's going on?""It's bad. He… He…""Stop stuttering and spit it out!" Zane snapped, his voice sharp.Brody struggled to steady himself, his voice trembling. "Mr. Saunders… He's dead!""Bullshit!" Zane roared, slapping Brody hard across the face. Blood trickled from the man's nose, but he dared not retaliate. "I swear it's true, Mr. Farrell. His body—it's outside!"Zane's face drained of color as he rushed outside, his gut screaming denial. In the courtyard, Owen's lifeless body lay sprawled on the ground, a massive hole in his chest. Blood pooled beneath him, dark and chilling."No!" Zane cried out, his voice breaking. His vision blurred, and he stumbled, nearly fainting. Owen, his best friend, one of

    Leopold and Nino were nearby, watching Gideon issue orders to Rachel. While Leopold seemed unfazed—he knew Gideon's true identity—Nino was utterly floored.Rachel was not only the head of the Avila family, but she was also the chairwoman of Avila Group, the most formidable businesswoman in Goldspire, and one of the Three Beauties of Goldspire. She carried many titles.While Nino was the king of the criminal underworld, his influence couldn't hold a candle to the legacy and power of an established dynasty like the Avilas. At that moment, Nino silently vowed his absolute loyalty to Gideon.Gideon turned to them. "You two don't get to rest, either. The chaos in the criminal underworld right now is your golden opportunity. I need you to seize control of every major faction in Goldspire. "By the time we're done, I want you running this city's entire network."Leopold and Nino exchanged a look, their faces lighting up. This was what they had been waiting for—Gideon's backing."Can you

    Drake knelt before Gideon, sniffling and wiping away his tears. Gideon scowled. "Six thousand people, and you brought every single one of them to Goldspire? They're quarantined in a hotel right now? "Damn it! You're not asking for help. You're forcing me to deal with your mess!"Drake looked pitiful as he pleaded, "Sir, I had no choice! I swear! Remember how obedient I was in Oasis Vale? I worked hard and stayed out of trouble. "Please, with your unmatched medical skills, this should be a piece of cake for you."Gideon sighed, his expression dark. "We'll deal with your punishment later."Turning to Leopold, Gideon barked, "Get a fleet of buses ready. Head to the hotel and bring all six thousand of them to Beaker Island."While they prepared the logistics, Gideon examined Drake. He quickly identified the toxin, confirming it was as nasty as the man claimed—potent enough to stump even the so-called Drake. But to Gideon, it was just difficult, not impossible.By that evening,

    "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

    "Go!" After throwing that punch, Gideon decisively chose to retreat. Orabella also pulled Elara along with her.Ivo lunged forward in pursuit. "Do you think you can escape? Did you even ask for my permission?""Why the hell would I ask you? Get lost!" Gideon raised his hand and slapped Ivo midair, sending him flying.Orabella struck with Ex Cathera.However, it wasn't aimed at Ivo. He was nothing more than a minor obstacle. The real target was the seven hooligans chasing them down."This…""Woman, you're from The Light Council!"Orabella remained silent.The seven hooligans scowled. If The Light Council was getting involved, things were about to get troublesome."Even The Light Council has no right to act recklessly in Bandit's Hollow.""The Pope himself came here once, and he even treated us with respect. You, a mere little Episcorprie, think you can pull this off?""Hold them back!"At that moment, the seven hooligans finally unleashed their full strength.They moved lik

    Blood splattered across the sky.Gideon struck again, aiming to obliterate Ivo. The sight sent Ivo into a panic, scaring him out of his wits."Stop!" Mea shouted in fury.The Hellrend Severance Technique was broken. The villains knew full well that Gideon was a ruthless force to be reckoned with. At this point, there was no way to seize the pure-essence core anymore. They had to deal with Gideon first.On the sacrificial altar, the pure-essence had also stopped its rampage and fallen into a state of calm. The condensed pure-essence energy transformed into a massive shield, wrapping itself around Elara.In the dense jungle, Orabella let out a long breath."That Ivo guy is such a waste of space. He couldn't even take a single hit. If only he had held on a little longer, the seven hooligans' Hellrend Severance Technique would have successfully stripped Elara of her pure-essence core!"Orabella felt a deep sense of regret. She was well-versed in the ways of the world. Gideon might n

    "Hellrend Severance Technique… Damn, these hooligans have some seriously bizarre methods. If I could even learn a little, it would be enough to last a lifetime. But…"A trace of resentment flashed deep in Ivo's eyes. "These old bastards won't teach me a thing! It's utterly infuriating."Ivo felt disgusted, especially with Mea. To win their support, he had forced himself to roll in the sheets with her, nearly scarring himself for life.Regardless, once he became a ninth-tier peak transcendent, crushing these old farts and taking their ultimate techniques will be effortless.Ivo plotted in silence.What he didn't know was that, in the distant woods, two figures were secretly watching—Orabella and Gideon. With such a huge commotion in Bandit's Hollow, it was impossible for them not to notice and rush over."We can't wait any longer. We need to act!" Gideon was anxious.He had arrived just in time to witness this scene, but he had no idea it was the Hellrend Severance Technique. All
