The Return of the War Legate Chapter 2717
The people of Blade's Reach had harbored resentment toward Adrian for a long time but had refrained from taking action against him because Frederick prevented it. Now that Adrian was provoking them openly, they believed that Frederick would not object to them killing him. "It seems like you truly have a death wish," one of them said.Seeing Adrian walking toward them with Lyra, one of them shouted, "I will avenge Elio!" This man was Jack, a close friend of Elio’s. He had been waiting for a chance to avenge his friend. Now that it was presented to him, he wasn’t about to let it slip away.The Blade's Reach villagers were all armed with swords.Jack charged at Adrian. The others watched in silence. They knew that Adrian had sustained injuries from Frederick and believed they could easily subdue him.Watching Jack rushing toward him, Adrian chuckled coldly and drew the Divine Frost Slayer Blade. A loud clash of metal echoed, followed by a dazzling flash of light. Adrian swiftly mo
The Return of the War Legate Chapter 2718
Adrian skillfully avoided Frederick, who was meditating with crossed legs. Despite Frederick's claim that he was fine, everyone could tell from his expression that he was not in a good state. Even as the battle began, he had not recovered from his meditative state. The people from Blade's Reach did not expect Adrian to unleash such a powerful move. All their attacks missed, and when the sword energy around them dispersed, Adrian and Lyra had already left."Adrian! We will kill you!" someone exclaimed in grief and anger.After more than ten minutes passed, Frederick finally woke up from his meditative state. When he opened his eyes and saw the chaos before him, along with three more bodies, he instantly understood what had happened."What happened?!" Frederick roared, grabbing the neck of someone nearby. "It was Adrian. He escaped…" the person replied nervously.Frederick fell into silence. 'How he could possess such abilities? Could it be that his previous weakened state was an

The group of people smiled wickedly as they surrounded Adrian. "Adrian, oh, Adrian. We never thought we’d encounter you here," one of them said. Adrian's face sank as he watched Thalia and her group warily. But no matter how hard he tried, he could not tell how powerful they were. If they insisted on attacking him, he might not be able to escape unscathed, let alone protect Lyra. Meanwhile, Lyra clutched Adrian’s hand tightly and hid behind his back. Her face was pale with fear as she could tell that these individuals were not from the three villages. They gave off a different vibe, especially the girl leading them. Even though she was about the same age as Lyra, she emanated a presence that seemed almost monstrous."Can we talk this out? You can have Thalia's body, so let’s just go our separate ways," Adrian reluctantly proposed."Hahaha! How the tables have turned. I didn't expect someone as arrogant as you to beg for mercy." Thalia, possessed by the dark dragon, laughed.Af
The Return of the War Legate Chapter 2720
If that happened, he would not be able to escape. 'I hope you won't let me down, Hellblade!' Adrian prayed in his heart.However, nothing happened after a long while. Adrian felt somewhat disappointed, just when he was about to step back, something shocking happened. A sharp and eerie ghostly scream suddenly pervaded the air. It was impossible to tell from which direction it came, but the sudden scream sent a chill down everyone's spine. The man standing before Adrian came to a halt and gazed at Adrian incredulously. After entering this world, he gained a big boost in his strength. He looked toward Thalia, who had assured him that they were the strongest here, but the events unfolding before him proved that Thalia had deceived him.Spurt!He coughed up blood and collapsed. It was only then that the wounds on his body became apparent to the others. Everything happened in an instant. Before the others could react, Adrian was already leading Lyra toward the opening the fallen man h

"Come on, Adrian!" Lyra urged Adrian, her face pale.They ran into Thalia and her group as soon as they came down from Cloud Puff Mountain. Had it not been for Frederick and the others’ arrival, they might not have gotten away from Thalia. When Adrian noticed that no one was coming, he slowed down. However, Lyra remained vigilant and continued to urge him to move faster. After a while, they were within the vicinity of Mudstone Village. When they arrived at the village entrance, several villagers noticed them and were shocked to see them covered in blood."What happened? Did you two run into beasts or something?" a middle-aged woman asked, approaching Lyra with concern and grabbing her hand.Lyra breathed a sigh of relief upon having returned to her village, but she was unsure of how to answer the woman’s questions. After all, Adrian had just killed several people from Blade's Reach. Though the three villages had conflicts during their annual expeditions into the secret realm, they

Lyra led Adrian back to her home. When her mother saw Lyra return, she burst into tears. Lyra had slipped out of the house the day before, causing her mother to worry all night. Considering the perilous events of today, those concerns were justified. If not for a fortunate turn of events, she and Adrian might have met their demise in Cloud Puff Mountain.When Sion saw Lyra, he was first relieved, and then a surge of rage washed over him. After scolding Lyra, he grounded her to her room, ordering her not to step out for the next month except for meals.Then, he sat with Adrian and asked, "What happened? Did you find Blade's Reach’s treasure?"Adrian shook his head. He could lie to the villagers, but deceiving Sion or the village chief was a risk he was not willing to take."Elio wanted to kill me, so I killed him," Adrian replied.Sion fell silent. Adrian's unexpected honesty left him at a loss for words."We then continued with the search. Though Frederick didn't attack me, I kne
The Return of the War Legate Chapter 2723
When the pair got back to Mudstone, it was barely evening. However, Sion did not return from the village chief's residence even after night fell.Lyra walked out of her room, looking anxiously in the direction of the chief's place."Why are you out here? Go back to your room!" Lyra's mother shouted.Lyra’s mother, Jess, was usually of few words. Adrian had not heard her speak much, and she would not initiate conversations with him. However, she was noticeably more talkative today due to her worry for Lyra.Upon hearing Jess’ words, Lyra returned to her room with a sulky expression.Jess glanced coldly at Adrian, wishing that he would disappear from her home. She was already distressed that her husband had been selected for the expedition to the secret realm this year, and Adrian's unexplained appearance just made things worse for her family. She believed that he was the one who led her daughter astray. Otherwise, Lyra would not have sneaked out and nearly died in the process.Adr
The Return of the War Legate Chapter 2724
Adrian smiled bitterly at the thought.While Adrian was strategizing on this side, something was happening in the chief's residence.“What is that?" Sion asked. The chief got up from his cushion and gazed up at the roof. This was a familiar aura, and in an instant, he sensed who it was. Like Adrian, he could detect the identity of the attacker through flowing light."I'll go check it out," the chief said with a relaxed smile.Although that person was like a god to them, times had changed. He was no longer the feeble ant he was two centuries ago, and the other party was not as terrifying as the legends suggested. Since that was the case, there was nothing to fear.Walking out of his house, the chief looked toward the direction of the light and swiftly flew toward it.Sion exited too, his expression dark. He had just been discussing with the chief concerning Adrian, and before they could reach a conclusion, they were attacked. Gazing at the sky, he sensed that Adrian’s arrival wa

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
The Return of the War Legate Chapter 4813
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
The Return of the War Legate Chapter 4808
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
