With a smile, Adrian said, "Ms. Mihika, you should smile more often. It looks good on you. You’re always looking like someone owes you money. That expression doesn’t look very good on you."Seeing Adrian's nonchalant attitude, Mihika chuckled. "I supposed you heard everything clearly at Morok's place earlier. If so, why aren't you afraid to meet me?""Afraid? Why should I be?" Adrian laughed and shrugged. "A good conscience is a soft pillow. I've never done anything wrong, so why should I be afraid of you?""That's quite a saying, but why should I believe you?" Mihika asked. "Your intuition," Adrian replied.Mihika’s brows furrowed in confusion as she asked, "My intuition? What do you mean?"With his hands behind his back, Adrian strolled toward Mihika and said, "Intuition is simply your gut feeling. I know you're not a reckless person or someone who enjoys causing trouble for no reason. I’m sure that you will give me fair treatment."Mihika chuckled. "Oh dear, how should I des

Mihika glared at him and said, "Where do you think you’re going? You're coming with me!" Without waiting for a response, she stretched her arm toward him. Whoosh!Adrian felt a sudden breeze. Mihika then swooped in, grabbed him, and took off.With the wind blowing in his face, Adrian had a hard time opening his eyes. Putting up an energy shield around himself, he saw that he was flying in the sky with Mihika."Wow, you can fly? You must be very strong," Adrian commented. Mihika calmly said, "It's nothing special."A flash of light emitted from Mihika's hand, and a small emblem appeared. The emblem was shimmering with a sparkling glow. The sparkling light covered them, allowing them to fly.In no time, the pair arrived at a towering mountain that reached the clouds. The mountain was incredibly tall and its peak was impossible to discern. However, as they were flying toward the summit, an air blade shot out. In a moment, the air blade transformed into a person."Who are you? Do

Mihika nodded in satisfaction. "Tell me everything Adrian and Morok said during their alchemy competition the other day. Remember, you’re not allowed to utter a single falsehood. Otherwise, I won't be lenient with you."Duncan nodded and recounted everything that happened that day. He did not know the underlying circumstances or why Mihika suddenly took an interest in this matter, but he knew he could not lie to her.Adrian had not deceived Mihika. Duncan revealed the truth of the events and helped Adrian clear his name.After Duncan finished retelling the story, Mihika's expression eased slightly."May I ask what happened, Ms. Mihika?" Duncan asked.Mihika said, "Some things are not for you to know. Alright, there's nothing more for you to do here. You may go.""Understood." Duncan nodded and returned to Alchemy Apex. Adrian turned to Mihika. "What do you think? I told you I wasn’t lying. I won against Morok in both alchemy and combat, so he had no choice but to seek your help

Morok was startled when he heard Adrian's voice. He rushed to open the door and saw Adrian standing outside."You’ve got a lot of nerve to show up here," Morok snarled, his expression grim.With his arms crossed, Adrian sized up Morok and chuckled. "What's the matter? Am I not welcome?"Morok retorted, "Welcome? Of course, I'll welcome you. But Adrian, I think you’re unaware that you're already a dead man walking.""Oh? Really? I don’t know anything about that. Please, enlighten me," Adrian said, extending his arms as if inviting Morok to explain.Morok was amused. "Looks like you’re still unaware. What you did to me has offended Mihika. She's coming for you. If I were you, I'd be running for my life instead of standing here chatting.”Adrian laughed. "In my opinion, the one who should be concerned about their safety is you! Don't you agree, Mihika?"Morok was stunned. He quickly spun around but could not find any trace of Mihika. He breathed a sigh of relief. He looked back at
The Return of the War Legate Chapter 2259
Mihika asked, "What's the matter? Why do you look so terrified to see me?""I..." Morok opened his mouth but could not articulate a complete sentence. Seeing him unable to speak, Mihika continued coldly, "Fine, since you won't talk, I’ll do it. Why did you lie to me?"Mihika’s tone carried an overwhelming force, crashing down on Morok like a landslide. This force shattered his confidence, and he collapsed on the ground.Trembling, he pleaded, "I'm sorry, Ms. Mihika! Please don't kill me!"Unperturbed, Mihika continued, "Do you have any idea who I am? How dare you deceive me! Have you ever considered the consequences if your lies were exposed?"Meanwhile, Adrian saw something happening in Mihika's hands. A cold energy was converging together to form a frosty sword. It seemed that she was ready to use the sword to deal with Morok and put an end to him.'As expected of Mihika. She does not hesitate to take down those who deceive her,' he thought.Meanwhile, Morok turned pale with

As Mihika was about to strike, Adrian intervened. "Hang on, Mihika.”"You have something to say?" Mihika asked, surprised that Adrian was stepping in. "Do you plan to help him plead his case?"Adrian shook his head. "Plead his case? Fat chance. I’d rather see him torn to pieces. I'm asking you to stop because I need some time to question him."Mihika stepped back and said, "Fine, go ahead.”After expressing his gratitude, Adrian approached Morok and said, "I have a few questions for you, and you’d best answer truthfully. If you do, I might put in a good word with Mihika on your behalf. You understand the consequences of lying, right?"Trembling, Morok agreed. "Okay... I'll try to answer your questions..."Adrian let out a sigh of relief. He asked, "Why did you use fake pills to deceive Vardala?"This was what Adrian cared about. After all, he saw no reason for Morok to deceive Vardala as Vardala had nothing to offer Morok.Morok looked startled, then fear appeared on his face.
The Return of the War Legate Chapter 2261
Adrian was no fool. He let out a sly smile and turned to Mihika. "Since he's not saying anything, you can go ahead and kill him.."Mihika wanted to laugh. She knew Adrian was jerking Morok’s strings. However, she pretended to be serious and replied, "Alright, let's get this done then."She once again swung the frosty sword, slashing toward Morok.As he was about to be struck, Morok closed his eyes and cried out, "Aaaahhh! Wait!" Swish...The sword came to a halt, stopping less than ten centimeters from Morok."I'll talk! I’ll talk!" Morok said, "I'll tell you everything I know. Please don't kill me..."Adrian cocked an eyebrow. "All right, go on then." He sat before Morok, looking at the latter as if he was ready to listen to a story.Morok gulped and said, "But before I tell you anything, you have to promise me something.”"What?" Adrian seemed a little impatient.Morok glanced around, then said, "You have to protect, or else I won't say anything.""Fine, we’ll protect you
The Return of the War Legate Chapter 2262
Adrian was surprised that Morok suddenly stopped talking. Morok instantly understood what was happening though."Something's wrong," Adrian said as he reached out to touch Morok, but as soon as he made contact, Morok swayed and collapsed.Morok was dead.Mihika was shocked. She whipped around, saying, "Someone ambushed him?!"They spotted a figure running through the surrounding trees and sprinting off into the distance."After them!"Adrian knew it was that person who killed Morok, so he activated all his power to catch up to the person. However, the attacker proved extremely fast, disappearing without a trace in the blink of an eye.Seeing the disappearing figure, Adrian cursed, "Damn it! He got away!"Mihika also found no traces of the person and could only sigh and analyze the situation. "Who was that? It seems like they've been lurking around us. When Morok was about to reveal the truth, they attacked and killed Morok to silence him. The attacker was unexpectedly strong. N

The Daemon Emperor was startled."What is happening? This power..."Formless energy was surging forward, pressuring his nerves and senses.Below, Andy and the others trembled uncontrollably."Who is it?" Finnian stared into the crimson mist.Even Andy was horrified, his gaze locked on the unfolding scene in disbelief, and asked, "What is this? What exactly is happening?" At this moment, Adrian abruptly opened his eyes.Apparently, the Daemon Emperor had once conspired with Adrian's subordinates to ambush him.However, Adrian had managed to annihilate the traitors and sealed this Daemon Emperor. Now, fate had brought them together again."If I killed you once, I can kill you again." Adrian stood tall, his white robes fluttering in the air.The Daemon Emperor was stunned into silence."This is impossible! You're not that mortal boy!""Is that so? In this life, your end has come, and so has the era of the daemons." Adrian's voice was calm yet resolute. He stretched out his han

Adrian's face hardened at the words. He despised threats above all else. While he understood what the mysterious entity desired, he couldn't yet fully comprehend its implications or find a way to counter it. His only choice was to focus on growing stronger.Within the hot spring, waves of raw, terrifying power surged and crashed violently against Adrian's body.The force, though beneficial, was brutal and overwhelming. Adrian's body struggled to endure, cracking as though it were disintegrating."Arghhh!"A heart-wrenching scream echoed as Adrian's flesh was torn apart and his aura gradually dimmed."Ahhh!"His agonized cries echoed once more. He could no longer withstand the pain.In the distance, a towering figure appeared and sneered. "What's this? Can't take it anymore? Pathetic. Humans are truly the epitome of stupidity."Suddenly, Adrian erupted with an explosive surge of energy, and in that instant, he broke through to the pinnacle of the Void Stage."Hmm? He actually b

At that moment, the crowd was speechless.Adrian had ascended as if it were the easiest thing in the world.Faced with such a sight, no one could say much beyond admiration. Even if the Holy Son claimed Adrian had cheated, many secretly wished they could cheat the same way.Lacking Adrian's means, all they could do was envy him.Finnian chuckled. "Haha! You really caught us all by surprise, kid. Still, I'll count this as you repaying me a favor."For Finnian, the outcome couldn't have been better. With a broad smile, he seemed to have achieved his desired result. Adrian's successful climb was all that mattered to him.Once Adrian had vanished, the focus shifted to the rest of the group and their trials.When Adrian opened his eyes again, his entire body ached, but an oddly comforting sensation flowed through him. Surveying his surroundings, he realized he was now in a pond."Where am I?" he asked.Though uncertain about the place, Adrian knew he had cleared the trial and arriv
The Return of the War Legate Chapter 4812
The onlookers stared in bewilderment, their faces etched with confusion as they struggled to grasp the unfolding events.Meanwhile, Adrian seethed with barely contained rage. This wasn't his first encounter with such torment. Every few steps he ascended, another trial awaited.To Adrian, the relentless punishments felt suffocating. Yet he pressed on—this was the final stretch of the climb. "Adrian, hang in there!" Andy shouted, urging him to conquer the last step. To Andy, reaching that final step symbolized Adrian's growth. He had witnessed Adrian's remarkable resilience countless times and held unwavering faith in his potential. In Andy's eyes, Adrian was destined for greatness. Adrian's expression turned cold as he locked his gaze on the steps ahead. Determination flickered in his eyes. "If reaching the top guarantees a reward, it doesn't have to be me up there. As long as someone makes it, that's enough." With that, he shifted his focus to the void above and formed

Adrian felt as if every nerve in his body was beyond his control. A deep sense of grievance filled his heart as the divine thunder from the void relentlessly crashed down.Rage surged within him, but under the onslaught of endless forces, he felt weak and constrained.Still, he had no choice but to press forward. He knew victory was within reach if he could endure a little longer—giving up now would mean death.If he fell, the shame and humiliation would crush him.Below, the Holy Son and others waited, eager to see him fail and mock him. This left Adrian no option but to push forward, striving toward the void above and his ultimate goal.The violent forces continued to bombard him from the sky.With every step, the thunder's impact intensified tenfold. His soul, already battered from a fierce battle with a horde of beasts, now felt as though it was dragging his exhausted body forward.Anyone else would likely have succumbed to despair. After all, under such immense pressure, ev

The oppressive forces descending from the void seemed determined to halt Adrian’s ascent up the staircase.Yet he refused to yield. To him, these overwhelming challenges were merely obstacles to conquer.He pressed forward with relentless determination.Thunderbolts continued to rain down, but the ominous red light from before did not return—a relief, as he never wished to endure its crushing weight again.The memory of that light still haunted him, leaving a lingering sense of helplessness. Its suffocating pressure had drained his strength, reducing him to a gasping, powerless state.Despite the toll on his body and mind, Adrian remained singularly focused on reaching the final step. His burning desire for greater power drove him forward, unwavering and resolute.Step by step, he ascended, reaching the 95th step in what felt like an instant.Only five steps remained. His gaze locked onto the summit, and a wild glint lit his eyes. A daring idea sparked within him, consuming his
The Return of the War Legate Chapter 4809
Adrian pondered his situation, his cold gaze reflecting simmering frustration. Yet deep down, he recognized that whoever had designed the staircase was far from ordinary.Creating such a formidable trial required unimaginable power.Even a pinnacle Void Stage expert—or perhaps someone of the Multiply Stage—might bow in reverence before the ladder's creator."He won't last much longer. The divine lightning in this void is utterly destructive. In moments, he'll be reduced to ashes," sneered the Holy Son, his sharp eyes gleaming with malice.To the Holy Son, Adrian's demise was inevitable. Adrian had dared to offend him, and he was certain such audacity could only lead to death.Adrian caught the Holy Son's words and cast him a frosty glare. His intent to kill was unmistakable, though now wasn't the time.The staircase was no place for personal vendettas—eliminating him here would require careful planning.He also knew the Holy Son carried seals of immense power. A reckless move co

Finnian's sharp gaze reflected a hint of admiration. "Kid, you owe me a big favor this time. You'd better treasure this opportunity."Adrian remained silent, unsure how to respond. His cold eyes revealed no emotion, though he fully grasped the challenges ahead.Fear was a luxury he couldn't afford—he'd come too far to back down now.Suddenly, a streak of red light surged from the void, hurtling toward Adrian with terrifying speed. His eyes widened in shock as the crimson beam struck him, slamming him against the staircase.Caught off guard, Adrian collapsed, sprawled helplessly on the steps.The crowd below watched in astonishment. No one had expected his seemingly indestructible body to be overwhelmed so easily.The Holy Son sneered. "Haha! It seems he's triggered some kind of taboo. Let's see how arrogant he is now!"His voice dripped with schadenfreude, his eyes gleaming with malicious satisfaction as he relished Adrian's struggle.Despite the crushing force, Adrian refused
The Return of the War Legate Chapter 4807
"What exactly is up there pulling me so strongly?" Adrian's expression hardened as he pondered the mysterious force drawing him upward.A surge of violent energy erupted across the sky, crashing down like a raging storm.Adrian advanced cautiously, each step deliberate and precise.Gone were the reckless strides of before—now he moved with steely determination, fully aware of the lurking dangers.He'd learned that the void's formidable forces seemed to target him directly, compelling him to proceed step by step. Any attempt to bypass its unseen barriers would provoke a devastating strike."Ridiculous," Adrian muttered. "If I've chosen to climb, nothing will stop me."The void's relentless power intensified.Bolts of thunder hammered down mercilessly, battering Adrian's body. Yet fear never crossed his mind.What was there to be afraid of?To him, the divine thunder wasn't an obstacle—it was a crucible, a tool to temper his body and strengthen his resolve.Despite the storm, A
