Chapter 3091

Author: Celestial Clouds
"Do you think he’s taunting us?" Keiran asked Cassandra had been watching the scene before her silently.

When she heard Keiran's question, she chuckled and shook her head. "Keiran, are you scared because he’s from Sable Emblem?" But the truth was, she knew perfectly well that the man before them was goading them on.

Upon hearing Cassandra's disdainful remarks, Keiran paused, then smiled awkwardly. Since he had not gotten Estelle yet, this girl before him was still important to him. Therefore, losing her was not an option until he had Estelle by his side. With that thought, Keiran turned back to Adrian. Even though the latter was goading them, there was nothing he could do to change that as they were in his territory.

"You're dead!" Keiran roared as he threw a punch at Adrian's face.

Bam!

Since arriving in this world, Adrian had been through numerous battles but rarely was there anyone who could harm him. Most of his foes were killed by his Ebony Shade sword before they could eve

    Cassandra, hesitant to act earlier, sensed that something was amiss upon seeing Adrian break free from the attacks. She caught on that Adrian was deliberately provoking them sooner than Keiran had. However, like Keiran, she had not taken Adrian seriously before. But at this moment, her intuition told her that trouble was brewing tonight in Moonlit, and she immediately discarded her cigarette and exited the tavern."Are you okay?" Estelle asked Adrian worriedly as she approached him.Adrian had only sustained a small wound on his face, and he could heal it instantly if he wished. However, he needed to play his part convincingly. Therefore, he pretended to be slightly flustered and brushed off Estelle's hand somewhat resentfully. Estelle felt a pang of sympathy. In her eyes, Adrian was a charming man who had been beaten up by these thugs. It was no wonder he was so angry."Miss, instead of following around this loser, why don't you stick to our leader instead? He's the one who can tru

    ‘If the garrison instructor finds out that his daughter went missing in a gang fight, he would be furious. He will surely lose his temper, and things will become even more chaotic,' Adrian pondered silently."Is your father really coming?" he asked.Adrian wanted to make sure that Estelle's father was coming and make himself appear vulnerable. For a righteous girl like Estelle, she would certainly not leave him alone when she saw that he was in trouble. Even if her father wasn’t planning on coming, he would probably come at her request.Initially, Adrian thought about using tonight's events to involve more forces and create even greater chaos, but he discarded the idea because there were no forces from Silverboa in Sandstone apart from some members of Hell Peaks. However, he now felt that the idea could work after learning of Estelle's identity."He will. I told him that I was in danger," Estelle said confidently. Her father was her hero, and he would surely come to rescue her if h

    They figured that something had happened on Adrian's side. "Mr. Adrian told us earlier in the day that he would deal with Keiran and the others tonight and that we should be ready to take over the Hell Peaks' territory at any moment..." Willie said hesitantly.Willie trusted Adrian more than Clement, and hence, did not tell Clement everything. For example, he did not tell Clement that it was because of the incident with Snow Lady that they had caught Adrian's attention. "But what if this blank message doesn't mean that?" Clement asked, "What if this message is asking us to cancel the operation?"Willie speechless. If Adrian could subdue a terrifying creature like the Snow Lady, he did not think Adrian would encounter any threat in Hell Peaks' territory. He realized how foolish Clement’s statement had been."Sir, regardless of whether Mr. Adrian has encountered an accident, we should take action now!" Willie said, gritting his teeth.Clement knew that too. After all, Adrian had

    Kieran’s group did not take Sable Emblem seriously. In terms of overall strength, Sable Emblem was on par with their own organization. However, everyone knew that Sable Emblem had offended Scarlet Star today and that their headquarters had been smashed. Therefore, Sable Emblem shouldn’t have the power to go against Hell Peaks now."Kid, you notified Clement, didn't you? So, what did he say?" Keiran smirked arrogantly."Hmph! Don't get too full of yourself, you losers! You're nothing but gutter rats who only know how to bully people!" Estelle shouted. Keiran was stunned. He could not believe such words could come out of the mouth of a quiet and gentle-looking girl like Estelle. "Mr. Keiran! They're simply too arrogant. Why don't we just attack them now?" someone behind Keiran asked.Adrian smirked. The stage for tonight was set. It was a confrontation between gang members in a tavern, leading to conflict between the two. No one would suspect that this was a plan to unify the unde

    "Your father? Is he from Sable Emblem too?" Keiran asked. Estelle sneered and replied, "My father is Harriett Chavez, an instructor of the garrison forces."Silence fell as the disputes and commotion came to a halt. If Estelle's father was a garrison instructor, then she and her father were these men’s enemies."Are you telling the truth?" Keiran asked. "The daughter of a garrison instructor wouldn't come to a place like this! She's lying!" some onlookers said. However, others whispered softly, "I've seen Harriett on TV. This girl does look like him."After a brief discussion, the atmosphere in Moonlit became even more tense. For a moment, Keiran and his companions did not know what to do. Suddenly, a group of people rushed in from outside the tavern, easing the tension momentarily."Mr. Keiran! Something's happening!" Some newcomers, unaware of what had occurred inside the tavern, rushed up to Keiran, and all of them were sweating profusely.Keiran cleared his throat, decid

    Estelle nodded at their words. She was relieved that Keiran and his group had spared Adrian. With that, it seemed her father did not need to come anymore. However, considering that the two gangs were already engaged in conflict and things escalated, it might be best to update him. "Where are you headed, Mr. Adrian?" Estelle asked.Adrian smiled at her and said, "I can't go with you for now. My friend is in another neighborhood, and he's also affiliated with a gang. He was the one who helped me, so I need to check on him." "But—""Thanks for your help tonight. I have to go now." Adrian walked away without giving Estelle a chance to persuade him."Let's go, Estelle. This place is about to descend into chaos!" The girls pulled Estelle away from the street.Estelle watched Adrian's departing figure, but he was too resolute for her to have any chance of keeping him. In no time, he vanished down the street. "Do you think Mr. Adrian might be in danger?" she asked her friends."Forget

    "Are you saying there’s a gang fight happening in the south of the city?" Harriett asked."That's right!" the girl replied. Most people were currently in a state of confusion, and most of them did not understand how things escalated to this point. However, if there was anyone feeling the most bewildered, it was probably Estelle and her companions. After all, Estelle's disappearance was strange. After plunging into darkness, it took less than five seconds for them to pull out their torches. By then, Estelle had vanished from their side."Hurry over there at the fastest speed!" Harriett ordered. "Yes, sir!" The coachman began to accelerate, and the dozens of carriages following them also sped up.Meanwhile, Estelle lay on the bed in a room within Sable Emblem’s headquarters."Sleep tight. I'll send you back tomorrow," Adrian said with a light chuckle as he stood by the bed. Then, he disappeared. Sable Emblem and Hell Peaks were evenly matched. If they were to fight head-on, bot

    Adrian walked on the deserted streets, the sound of police sirens ringing in his ears. There were still some traces of blood on the road, but the people had evacuated from the area. Surrounding storefronts remained tightly shut, with inhabitants silently observing the events outside their windows. In times like these, no one aside from Adrian dared to wander the streets."Hey, who are you?" A figure clad in a black military uniform appeared ahead, shining a flashlight at Adrian cautiously."I want to report a crime," Adrian said."Report a crime?" The military officer was visibly taken aback. "What do you want to report?" he asked."I witnessed someone kidnapping a girl," Adrian replied indifferently.The officer's eyes widened instantly. Just moments ago, news had arrived that the garrison instructor's daughter had gone missing in this neighborhood. Their primary task had shifted from apprehending gang members to locating the instructor's daughter, and a report of witnessing a gi

    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 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.

    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

    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

    "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
