Chapter 990

Author: Chu
Frank remained impassive as he stared at the trembling Sorano bodyguard. "Your five minutes is over. Since you're not bringing Willy Sorano over, you can take me to him."

He picked that bodyguard merely because he was the obvious coward—the more afraid they were to die, the easier they were to control.

Gutsy ones would only waste more of his time.

"What? Mr. Sorano?" The cowardly Sorano bodyguard turned toward the other bodyguards hesitantly.

However, they were clearly afraid that Frank would just kill their cowardly colleague and then turn his sights on them.

They just worked here, and they certainly did not want to die!

And while Frank's only opinion of the man was 'coward', the man could not be blamed.

The Soranos were not a dynasty of martial artists like the Lionhearts, and their only real muscle were their retainers.

And while the Sorano bodyguards' job title was bodyguard, they were really just your glorified security officers. They only took the job because it paid well

    In around ten minutes, Frank found himself staring at a gigantic luxury mansion with over seven luxury cars lining the courtyard.Each of them were limited editions that would invoke considerable envy if seen in public—from the looks of it, they were Willy's very own collection.He then alighted without further harassing the cowardly Sorano bodyguard. He had a bone to pick with someone else, and he only killed before in rage and to establish himself.Now that he had found Willy's mansion, he had no reason to do it—he never liked killing and was always tolerant toward those who knew their place."Go." He waved off the cowardly Sorano bodyguard.The cowardly Sorano bodyguard actually thought he was going to die and was delighted that Frank did not kill him.After all, nothing could be more delightful than cheating death, and he even thanked Frank profusely, even though he was an intruder who barged into Sorano Estate.Frank was left shaking his head in bemusement—the standard of b

    Willy laughed. "The fact that you showed up here means—"Smack!Frank said nothing as he slapped Willy resoundingly across the face, leaving him stunned.Seizing Willy by the neck, his eyes flashed murderously as he bellowed, "I asked you a question, so answer it!"Willy could barely keep up—he touched his face and felt the sting, finally realizing it was no dream.His face contorted with rage and humiliation as he looked up and glared at Frank. "Y-You hit me?! In my house?! Do you know what you're doing?!"Smack!"I told you to answer my question!" Frank bellowed as he slapped him again, leaving Willy seeing stars as his lips bled.It actually took Willy seconds to recover."Frank Lawrence, you—""Answer my question!"Seeing Frank's fury, Willy actually felt a pang of panic.He had no idea how Frank got inside his own house, but Frank was going to keep slapping him if he kept being stubborn. As such, he had to hold back his own rage and bellowed, "If you're talking about t

    Frank did not even flinch as he watched Willy cackle hysterically, and he asked calmly, "So, are you done?""Eh?" Willy was taken aback by Frank's unaffected reaction, even asking blankly, "Aren't you scared? I know everything about you and your family in Riverton—Oof!"Willy could not even scream as Frank punched his lower jaw, pulverizing everything including his teeth into mush.All he could do was writhe around the floor in sheer pain."Maybe…"Frank remained impassive as he watched him convulse, speaking calmly, "Maybe my family will suffer like you threatened, but I'll do all I can to stop it before that. If it's a war you Soranos want, I wouldn't mind showing my chops and bathing your house in blood.""Insolence!"An elderly man in a white suit emerged from the door behind Frank just then, glancing at Willy before glaring furiously at Frank. "Bathe my house in blood?! Such bold words! Now state your name!"Gus Zeller then entered as well and did a double take in confus

    "I bear you no ill will, Mr. Sorano," Gus retorted firmly at Willy. "Why would you mistreat you in any way? If anything, it does the Sorano family no good to start a fight without knowing why. After all, we're talking about a martial elite who's clearly outraged enough to charge into our own turf.""Fine. In that case, I'd like to hear the brat's story."Tony nodded, withholding his rage as he turned toward Frank with a cool glare. "What's your beef with my family, Mr. Lawrence? We should at least understand why you're trying to start a war here.""That's right." Gus nodded. "Hmph. Finally, someone who speaks like a human being." Frank snorted as he eased his foot over Willy's kneecap.Turning toward Gus darkly, he asked, "When you consulted me, we agreed that I'd bring you medicine to treat your recurring condition, didn't we?""Is that true?" Tony turned to Gus."Yes, it is." Gus glanced at him in turn, nodding solemnly and frowning.Frank then bellowed, "I happened to be bu

    "Gus Zeller…!!!" Willy hissed furiously, but there was nothing he could do."Willy," Tony said quietly just then, "Gus is right. You haven't been found innocent of Zam's death, and now, you've brought more trouble to our doorstep. You're in the wrong here, so apologize to Mr. Lawrence now.""What?!" Willy's eyes widened so much they could pop out, and he shrieked even as he looked up at them, "Am I hearing this wrong?! This… This Frank Lawrence barged into our home, killed our bodyguards, and hurt me! And you're letting this slide?! When has our family become this weak?! Or do we not fight back when others shit on us these days?!""Silence!" Gus bellowed icily as he strode a step forward. "Let me make this clear—you've only ever been causing us trouble, and you're a suspect in your own granduncle's death! Don't try to cry your way out of this!"Then, pointing at Frank, Gus laughed despite himself. "Frank Lawrence sent a courier to deliver a medicine, but forget stopping him—you'd

    Willy struggled violently even as he bawled, "Save me, Granduncle!!!"Tony promptly strode up and bellowed at Frank right then, "Stop! We were being reasonable here, but you'd hurt Willy instead?! Would you rather we not be reasonable?!""Calm down, Mr. Lawrence," Gus reasoned as well, reluctant to fight Frank."Heh…" Frank chuckled nonchalantly in spite of Tony and Gus' wary stances. "You're the ones who should be begging. Even before I came, there were only two options I was going to offer Willy."As he spoke, he crushed Willy's other kneecap with his foot—the man was in so much pain that he drifted in and out of consciousness, but all he could do was curse and yell Frank's name."I'll kill him if you come closer," Frank said just then, seeing that Tony was ready to attack.His warning promptly left Tony straightening warily—he could already tell that Frank was strong, and that killing Willy was a matter of will for him."Then what do you want?!" Tony bellowed, glaring at Fr

    Frank sneered. "If you want him to live, you'll bring him over to Loggins Apothecary and have him kowtow to Nash in apology… It's either that, or you can wait until he dies screaming in three days. And you can trust me when I say he'll regret being alive then."With those words, Frank leapt off the second floor before anyone could respond, landing on top of one of Willy's luxury cars.As the Sorano bodyguards around him looked on in shock, he leapt into a dome car and drove off."Stop him! Stop him!" Emilio Sorano—Willy's father—bellowed manically at the bodyguards downstairs, having rushed to the scene after hearing what had happened."Oh… Okay!"The bodyguards finally came to their senses and finally gave chase.However, Frank had already put a considerable distance between them, and they had no hope of beating him even if they caught up.As such, they merely looked busy chasing after Frank but were actually doing it half-heartedly.None of them were eager to die anyway.And

    Just as the Soranos' executives and retainers almost came to an agreement, an authoritative voice barked from the doorway, "What's going on here?!"Silence quickly ensued, with most of them keeping their heads down in reverence while an old man shuffled inside.His back was hunched and his visage ancient, but he carried himself with authority.He stood in the middle of the crowd, his eyes piercing studying everyone.It was none other than Zico Sorano, the head of the Sorano family, himself."Brother." Tony approached him and told him everything that had happened, keeping his narrative neutral as he reported the facts of what he had seen."Hmm… an Ascendant rank named Frank Lawrence?"Zico was focused on Frank, barely paying the writhing Willy any attention as he thought to himself in silence.Soon, he smiled enigmatically, with even the wrinkles on his face smoothening. "Well, that's decided." He chuckled. "Come tomorrow and send an escort with Willy to apologize to Frank Law

    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
