Chapter 3111

Penulis: Celestial Clouds
Adrian's casual explanation failed to fully convince the guards, given his earlier ruthless display. Moreover, considering the significance of the day's event, their suspicions of him deepened.

"Please, leave this place," the leader of the guards reiterated firmly.

Adrian sighed, reluctant to engage in conflict before meeting with Blake, but it seemed that it was inevitable. Though he could easily bypass the guards and enter the inn clandestinely, such underhanded tactics weren't his style.

"I came here with genuine intentions to offer my congratulations. Unfortunately, since you doubt my sincerity, I'll have to find another way in. Don't regret your decision later," Adrian warned as he stepped forward.

These words put the guards on high alert. However, their vigilance proved futile against Adrian. Their strength paled in comparison to his dominance. As Adrian entered the inn, the guards at the door remained in a daze. The influence of the Draco Force overwhelmed their minds, leavi

    It was evident that the girl wasn't an assassin; her demeanor and casual attire set her apart from the formally dressed women in the crowd. Clad in just a long shirt, she stood out even more, contrasting with Adrian's attire.Approaching Adrian, she whispered something softly, prompting a brief hesitation from Adrian before he nodded in understanding. Relief washed over the girl as she took hold of his hand. He had noticed others at the banquet also searching for someone, besides himself.A group of muscular men, more intimidating than the guards, had evidently located their target after scanning the crowd. Making their way toward Adrian, they disrupted the harmonious atmosphere of the banquet.The attendees, wealthy and noble, viewed the Unicorn Society with disdain, considering them merely a group of thugs. The presence of the guards raised suspicions among some. Since none had brought their own guards to the engagement ceremony, many wondered if the Unicorn Society had ulterior m

    When Adrian heard these words, his mind spun. He hesitated to leave with the girl because he had unfinished business and couldn't disrupt his plans for a stranger. Yet, he was intrigued by her situation. Despite no bloody battles, this place felt like another battlefield, prompting him to use any opportunity, including the unfolding events, to his advantage. That was why he wanted to stay.Adrian smirked. In Leafall City, the governor's son, Lloyd, was supposed to be married to Sherri. But Adrian's presence had disrupted that plan, leading to Sherri's father becoming the governor instead.In Sandstone City, fortunes seemed reversed. This girl's father was now receiving marriage proposals. Despite the difference, Adrian's involvement and the dissatisfaction of the girls remained common points. If his speculation proved correct, the girl standing behind him was the governor's daughter."Miss, this matter concerns the fate of your family. It's not something to be taken lightly. Regardl

    This was not a simple matter for her or Adrian, but the young lady had no other choice. If time had been sufficient, she would have pleaded with Adrian and had him play the role of her lover. Unfortunately, judging from his previous attitude, this seemed impossible. Yet, he spoke those somewhat ambiguous words, surprising everyone present."The relationship between your miss and me? That's for her to answer." Adrian smirked, his expression slightly smug. His words heightened the surrounding people's curiosity, making this engagement ceremony more intriguing than ever."He...He's my lover," the girl admitted, blushing involuntarily. Though she had planned this beforehand and even considered asking Adrian to play the role of her lover, confessing that a man was her lover proved challenging for someone who had never had intimate contact with any man in over the twenty years she had been alive.Adrian smiled, seemingly unsurprised by Lottie's declaration."Lover?" The banquet guests er

    As mayor, wielding power was undoubtedly important, but maintaining a sterling reputation was equally crucial."I'll give you one last chance to hand over Ms. Lottie," the leader of the black-clad men declared, unwavering in his decision. With matters escalated, there was no turning back. Their sole objective now was to retrieve Lottie and resume the engagement ceremony, restoring order."She's already declared me her lover. Do you still intend to take her from me?" Adrian chuckled lightly."You're delusional. Ms. Lottie could never be with you. She's been under our close protection since childhood. You're nothing but a stranger," the black-clad leader retorted, aware of Lottie's false claims."Are you really going to break up a pair of lovebirds?" someone in the crowd, eager to stoke the conflict, interjected."Silence!" The black-clad men disregarded the guest. Anyone speaking at this moment was deemed an enemy of their governor. "Miss, please come with me at once.""I won't le

    Events had unfolded beyond Blake’s expectations. The leader of the Universe Brotherhood came to cause them trouble. However, he had to get rid of Adrian first. Blake turned to Lottie and said, "Ms. Lottie, this engagement ceremony was arranged just for you. Is it appropriate for you to act like this?" He was miffed by Lottie's behavior, but he managed to restrain his anger. He was one of the titans of the underworld, and Lottie's actions were simply a humiliation to him."You agreed to an engagement with my father without my consent. That's even more inappropriate," Lottie countered. She held a negative opinion of Blake, so she had no intention of showing him any respect.Seeing how firm Lottie was, Blake turned to Adrian and asked, "Young man, who do you think you are?" "Old man, do you not know who I am?" Adrian asked back while pulling Lottie closer to him. Lottie's face flushed. However, since they had already started acting, she had no choice but to play along.Blake clen

    'What's going on?' Blake thought. The guests were equally bewildered. It seemed to them that the young man before them who appeared out of the blue was unusually strong. The situation had deviated from Adrian's original plan. He had not intended to reveal his strength in front of so many people, especially the elites of Sandstone. However, there were both advantages and disadvantages to this turn of events, and the biggest benefit was that he could gain Lottie’s favor."If you don't want to embarrass yourselves any further, then follow me," Adrian said. Blake's expression was dark. Even though Adrian was finally willing to talk to them, he also realized that he might not be a match for Adrian. Through their earlier exchange just now, he had realized that Adrian could very well be a lot stronger than him.As they headed toward the back room, Blake and Terry’s heads were filled with countless thoughts. They did not know what to do because they did not know Adrian's true intention

    "Are you Adrian Xander?" Terry asked.Terry was a calmer man than Blake in such situations. When Adrian nodded, Terry's legs went weak. He walked over to Lottie and pulled her away from Adrian. After learning Adrian's identity, he discarded the thought of making Adrian marry his daughter. His only thought was to survive under Adrian's control.The reception hall suddenly burst open as an elegantly dressed young man barged in. "Lottie, you already have someone in your heart?! I want to duel him!" he declared.It was none other than Blake's son, Aran Daniels. He seemed unaware of what was going on. He learned from the guests that Lottie had another man in her heart. This was undoubtedly a great humiliation for Aran, and he thought of the simplest and most brutal solution: to kill Adrian. As the youngest level eight in Sandstone, he believed in his strength. Therefore, he did not think he would lose to Adrian in a one-on-one fight. Unfortunately, he was also misled by the guests outs

    As soon as these words fell, everyone in the room fell silent."D-Disable Sandstone’s defenses?" Blake muttered. Aran, who stood beside him, turned even paler.As one of the underground giants of Sandstone City, Blake had his ambitions. Many people were still unaware of what was happening outside the city, but he knew because of his status. For example, both troops led by Sid and Quintin were in a stalemate. While the attack from Silverboa was intense, it was not easy to break through Sandstone’s defenses. However, anyone with insight knew Silverboa was determined to win this war.Therefore, Blacke had to consider his options for himself and his family. After all, Sandstone would be breached one day, and they would have to decide what to do then. If they were ordinary people, they might simply be displaced. However, as people in high positions, they faced even greater risks when war approached. When it descended on them, they sometimes had to pay the price for their choices."So, w

    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.

    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.

    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.
