Chapter 1618

Author: Chu
Judging from its name alone, Fettle Clinic was an unassuming place.

As such, Frank was not surprised to find the clinic in a remote corner of the suburbs, just past the fringes of Lake Cove.

It was evening, but every door and window of the clinic was shut, as if closed for businesses.

Still, Frank's sharp hearing could pick up the voices inside.

He was alone, and it was a familiar face at that—it was Hardy Xinder!

Narrowing his eyes, Frank leapt agilely up to the second floor and slipped inside from a venting window.

Hardy, whose hair was now completely white, was sitting by a desk and asking into the antique rotary phone, "Hey, what's going on here? You're saying that there have been problems in Zamri, but what am I doing here?"

"What? A trap? What the hell are you talking about?!"

Hardy sounded clearly impatient and was even holding the phone as he paced around. "Damn it, Yaga—so what are you playing at?! Shouldn't the Lane family be going after Frank Lawrence's head by now?

    "What? Argh!!!"It was too late by the time Hardy realized what had happened.The emerald gas had reached his cheek just then, and his skin started to peel off as well, leaving bare scarlet tissue.They soon melted off as well, leaving only charred bones."H-Help me…"Hardy wanted to run, but his legs were caught in the green gas.He dropped to the floor with an audible thud, and watched as his legs melted into black bones as well.All he could do was scream, and in his desperation, he even reached out his only good hand toward Frank, yelling and begging, "Please, I don't wanna die! Help me, help me!!!"However, Frank could not do anything and watched as half of Hardy's face melted off.It was such an eerie sight that he felt the creeps, being as knowledgeable as he was.At the same time, he started backward to avoid the green gas.And in under ten seconds, Hardy was completely consumed by the green gas and reduced to charred bones scattered all over the floor.However, Fra

    "It's been a while… Surely he'd be withered down to bones no matter how strong he is? Not even a peak Ascendant rank individual could withstand the rotting gas I've concocted from a thousand decomposing bodies."Naturally, the diminutive figure was none other than Baba Yaga.Even as she mused to herself, her expression was careful as she circled the clinic repeatedly.Eventually, she breathed a sigh of relief when she heard nothing."I guess he's really done." She laughed coolly. "They all say that Frank's power is unmatched, but he fell just like the rest before my poison! Guess I should report this to Hundred Bane Sect… Hmph! It seems like Titus Lionheart owes us a favor now.""That reminds me… I should search the body for a spiritron vein, since he might carry it with him…"Letting down her guard just then, she opened the doors of the clinic, ready to search Frank's corpse.However, an arm suddenly shot out from the clinic amid the silent night, seizing Baba Yaga by the neck!

    To no surprise, Baba Yaga really returned after patiently waiting up to seven hours.Frank certainly did not hold back, subduing her in an instant to cut off her escape while hitting her internally with a burst of pure vigor. If Baba Yaga were to pull anything, it was just a matter of thought for Frank to detonate that pure vigor and kill her.Having sealed his triumph, Frank flung Baba Yaga to the floor."Impossible…" she murmured as she pushed herself up, staring in disbelief at the door which Frank tore open.She spent a fortune on the construction of this clinic, with everything from the walls to the door reinforced with special materials provided by Hundred Bane Sect.Forget Ascendant ranks—even those peak Ascendant ranks would not ever be able to break it, but Frank tore through it like candy wrapper.It left Baba Yaga at a loss—was she too weak, or was Frank just too powerful? Surely only the most powerful individuals of Draconia could accomplish something like that… D

    And with Mark Lane around, no one was chasing Helen or Frank out of the Lane family. Baba Yaga leveled Frank a troubled look just then and sighed. "The plan was to come after you after the Lane family exiled you… but that's unnecessary now. The gap between us is insurmountable—schemes and traps are nothing but a joke in the face of absolute power."We were all working under the impression that the Lane family helped you to succeed… but sadly, it was the other way around."Hearing her sigh, Frank also realized how many thought his success was thanks to the Lane family, and Baba Yaga was no exception.In other words, she was saying that she was convinced Frank would be nothing once he lost the Lane family, whom she had assumed were his backers.At best, he was a young but accomplished martial artist.The reality that Frank was really the one supporting the Lane family was an insider detail, something which escaped even key members and executives of the Lane family.Frank nodded i

    Baba Yaga screamed shrilly as she bled out of every orifice and dropped dead on the floor.Frank's pure vigor crushed Baba Yaga's organs from the inside. Though she appeared alive on the outside, she was really as dead as a doornail.Frank also set a fire to burn her body along with her clinic just in case, destroying any evidence along with it.Even if Hundred Bane Sect came looking, they would not get anything that could trace back to Frank—not unless Baba Yaga told them beforehand.With that, Frank hurried back to Riverton, attempting to call Gavin Lane and his family while he did.When he could not reach any of them, Frank realized right away that Yora Yimmel must be involved. She must have sent her people to block all communications in Laneville, stifling all cell signals and anything else.The only option Frank had now was to personally visit Laneville, but that posed another problem too.While Frank would have no trouble eliminating Yora and her maiden family, she had now

    "We're evicting you from Lanecorp!" Dorek laughed. "It belongs to us Yimmels from now on, along with anything else you own! Hand everything over!"Frank scowled. "So you're going to take it from us?""We are, and what about it?" Dorek chuckled confidently, twirling his bangs. "My great grandmother has taken over Laneville, and it's just a matter of time before we gobble up the rest. I'm just beating my brother to get the largest piece of the pie… So are you going to fight me or not? Show me your shitty Draconian martial arts!"Dorek looked no more than eighteen, but he was utterly pompous and unseemly to the point of stupid.Frank actually thought that might be the case—did the brat think that beating Lanecorp's security and getting inside Helen's office meant taking over Laneocrp?Still, he sighed exasperatedly as he glanced behind at the Lanecorp health and safety department personnel left on the floor.Stupidity aside, the brat could throw a punch."What's your name?" Frank a

    The only one who could put Dorek in his place was his cousin Hagar Yimmel. In fact, Hagar was not just a better fighter—he carried authority even in his family and was smarter, always knowing what he was doing.That was why Dorek wanted to take over Lanecorp before the others did, claiming the largest piece of the pie so that Hagar did not get to be dismissive of him.Clearly, Dorek was too simple-minded, knowing nothing about business management or shares, and only of turf wars and violence.He worked under the impression that if he evicted the Lane family and beat up all their security guards, Lanecorp would in turn be his.In a way, his brain was wired differently.Frank was left smiling in amusement as Peter Lane told him everything—to think that the Yimmels would have such a treat in their midst!Still, the sight of Dorek being pulled out of the fountain gave him an idea.There was no way he would turn away a hostage who came throwing himself into Frank's grasp.And Yora

    Seeing how naive the rich playboy was, Frank sneered, his eyes narrowing. "Did you really think Lanecorp Tower is a place you can come and go as you please?""Shit! Well, what do you want? To kill me?!"Dorek wheeled on him impatiently but stiffened when he saw the look on Frank's face, his heart skipping a beat.Terror he had never known seized him, and a frightening thought occurred in his mind right then—the man might just really kill him!"W-What do you want?! I'm telling you, I'm the third child of the main Yimmel family. If you lay a finger on me…"Dorek trailed off, deflated since he had already pulled the same move before, only to get a vicious slap across the face.Was there even a point to his threat now?"Hehe…"Even as Dorek felt afraid for his life, Frank suddenly chuckled, albeit savagely. "So… Yora Yimmel is in Laneville now?"Dorek appeared taken aback but nodded hesitantly. "Y-Yes…"Frank nodded. "In that case, I need you to do me a solid—you will bring the k

    Frank snorted. "Alright, I'm hanging up. I'm getting started over here soon.""Yeah. Good luck," Jouri replied.Hanging up, Frank looked up at the waterfall overhead, and then at Skyler, who was standing beside him. "So? Is it time yet?""Almost… Now!" Skyler's eyes were glowing even as she stared at her watch."Alright."Frank looked up just as the skies abruptly darkened. "Ah, there it is—the eclipse."The sun seemed to disappear, and the world was suddenly shrouded in darknesses.And beside him, a stone door imbued with the power of the spiritron vein also rumbled as it parted."Got it!" Frank rushed inside without another word as soon as he saw it."Hmph. I'm surprised that you could reach this place." A cold, wrathful voice resounded inside even before Frank got a hold of his surroundings.Looking up, Frank found a youth in a black cossack and sporting grey-white hair, standing upon a cliff as he looked down on him.Frank chuckled. "Hehe. Like I said, I've come to kill

    Frank narrowed his eyes. "Is that so?'Crane shrugged. "I don't mind giving it to you straight—members of Torrent are actually… Ahem. A part of Torrent himself."Frank paused. "What's that supposed to mean?""You don't get it, do you?" Crane grinned. "Then let me put it to you this way—every member is a clone of Torrent.""A clone?" Frank gasped in realization."Yes," Crane nodded. "That's why I believe that challenging Crane is just suicide. You have no idea how powerful he is—only death awaits you down that path."Frank smirked. "Oh, but I don't think so."Crane rolled his eyes. "Fine, whatever—now listen closely. You will find Torrent in the Mystic Trail, but you would only find that place when the sun and moon coincide, and the entrance is beneath the waterfall south of Horton."As he finished, he snorted coldly. "I have no idea if you can actually do it, but I'm hoping you do kill him… Heh. I'm getting tired of being stuck under his control for so long."Then, waving off

    Frank abruptly turned, immediately noticing one of the Cranes crouching, ready to spring forward and blindside him."Got you!" He laughed."Hah! You fell for it!"Just as Frank swung a punch to pulverize that Crane, he suddenly burst into pus that splashed at Frank's face."Damn it!" Frank took a step back, surprised that the clone's presence was identical to the real Crane, and a trap on top of that!"Die!"The Cranes around him each whipped out a dagger, all of them stabbing at Frank at the same time."Get off!" Frank bellowed, unleashing a shockwave that sent all the Cranes flying across all directions."Frank! Above you!" Skyler suddenly shrieked."Yes! I'm right here!" A strange laughter sounded above Frank just as he wiped the pus off his face.Crane was suddenly directly above him, launching an aerial kick straight at Frank's head, and Frank had no time to dodge!"Die!" Crane's smile curled into a twisted angle as he saw that too.He was very confident with this kick

    "Disgusting…" Skyler murmured through her hand.Despite being skinned and scalped, the women were all still alive and singing to the music that was playing despite their anguish."Talk about a terrible fetish."Frank was scowling too—why were all the members of Torrent such sick deviants? It seemed like his plan to wipe them out was absolutely correct!"So, you killed my clone?"The lanky man on the couch slowly turned to level his bloodshot eyes at Frank.His lips were wet with bed as they curled upward into an eerie smile."Clone?" Frank narrowed his eyes."Hehe. It's a sage art."Crane shrugged as he stood up and wiped the blood off his lips. "It's only natural that you don't understand… Still, you deserve praise. If you can kill my clone, that means you're not just slightly stronger than Ghost."Naturally, the man was none other than the real Crane.Still, as Skyler studied him from a corner, even she could notice the strange twitch of his fingers, and his veins were pro

    Even as Crane ran, he was looking over his shoulder, his heart pounding. "No… I won't win in a one-on-one!"No, as long as I get back to my real body… we can do this together!" He frowned, having seen how Frank sliced off the pinkies of those hood rats. It hence quickly dawned on him that Frank was not just slightly stronger than Ghost, as Torrent had put it!"Almost there!" He gasped when he saw the signboard of Pegasus Showtown in the distance. "As long as I get there and rendezvous with my real body, that brat will lose—"That was when he turned and saw that a shadow had caught up with impossible speed."What?!" Crane's eyes almost popped out in bewilderment. "What speed is that?! Are you kidding—"Even as he spotted the shadow, the shadow turned into a youth with an impassive visage.His fist outstretched, he was clearly punching toward Crane's forehead!"Argh…"Even as Crane looked on, the youth's punch slowed down by tenfold, but his fist kept closing in.Then, whe

    Seeing Skyler sigh, the tattooed thug presumed that his extortion worked.He strode up, grabbing Frank's shoulder. "No one's gonna help you, boy. Pay up, or you're not leaving.""Exactly! You're not getting away!" the crowd of hood rats hollered. "Last chance."Frank's eyes were cold and fixed on Dani, however. "Are you going to intervene? If you do, you can keep that check. If you don't…""Ugh. Fuck off! I don't care!" Dani spat, her expression smug as she folded her arms before her chest. "Who do you think you are to threaten me?!""Exactly! Pay up, and you can leave!""Yeah! Ten grand, at least!""You probably don't know my boss Wyvern, but when he's here, you won't get away with just ten grand!"Even as the crowd closed in, Frank shook his head. "Well, you had your chance. Don't blame me for what happens next.""You're giving us a chance?! Hah! Who—argh!"Even before Dani could finish gloating, Frank was suddenly in front of her, grabbing her viciously by the wrist."Arg

    "Five grand?! Did you hear that?! He just threw five grand!""Must be a rich kid coming here for a secret rendezvous, out of prying eyes? Those types are the easiest mark!""Fuck! And Dani got one of us… It hurts me more than losing at the races!"Frank could hear the buzz around him but ignored it as he strode past the men flanking him and headed toward the street that stank of blood."Stop!" A big tattooed man grinned sinisterly as he intercepted Frank.As his buddies encircled Frank as well, Frank snorted—it seemed that they took his reaction for a sign of weakness and thought that he could be cowed.The tattooed man rubbed his chin as he leered at Skyler's voluptuous figure, chuckling. "Look, boy. I'm short on cash, so let me take a loan. I'll pay you back some other day, how about that?"His friend laughed. "Exactly! You just gave Dani five grand, and we won't ask for more… just four, how about that?"Skyler scowled in turn and glanced worriedly at Frank beside her—was he

    Frank himself had just stepped out of the nightclub when his eyes narrowed."Blood," he murmured, his nostrils twitching."Blood?"Skyler sniffed the air, puzzled. "I can't smell it.""It's from the opposite street… I smell the blood of over a dozen people.""A dozen?!" Skyler did a double take.He could identify the number of people who were killed?! That was just ridiculous!"Come on, let's take a look."Just as Frank led the way toward the source of the stench, a woman suddenly came up, catching Frank off guard and throwing herself into his arms."Hmmm?" He looked down to see that she had thick makeup, average looks, and a rather pudgy belly."Argh! He touched me!" she pointed at Frank and shrieked even before he realized what was happening."What?!" Skyler was staring at the woman too, mystified."Oh, sister! You just didn't see it!"The woman kept hollering, pointing at Frank's face. "Your boyfriend grabbed my ass! Is that how you teach him manners?!""Teach him ma

    Wyvern screamed even as he clutched the stump that was his hand, screaming so shrilly one might mistake his voice as inhuman."Oh, just shut up." The lanky man glowered and launched a kick, reducing Wyvern into puddles of blood and pieces of innards, splattering all around the lobby. "Argh!!!" the devilish lady screamed as she watched the carnage unfolded."Another sound, and you'd end up just like him." The lanky man turned and frowned at her impatiently."Hngh…" The devilish lady promptly clasped a hand over her mouth, tears welling up in her eyes as she trembled."What the hell?!"Outside, Wyvern's lackeys heard the screams and ran inside, looking for him. "Hey, where's Wyvern?!"However, the lobby was too dimly lit for them to notice the blood and guts scattered around the walls, and they only sensed that terrible stench."Hngh…" The devilish lady was too scared to speak, and tears trickled out of her eyes."Fuck!"One of the lackeys strode up and seized the lanky man
