Edgar's eyes widened in utter disbelief as he looked at Adrian. He couldn’t fathom how Adrian could be so powerful. Before he could fully grasp what was happening, the force of Adrian’s sword and fists were already crashing into his body.

“H-How are you this strong?" Edgar stammered, finally realizing how ignorant he was. Confronted with Adrian’s swordsmanship, he felt all his skills were weak and insignificant. However, there was no answer for him.

Boom!

A wave of violent power erupted. Adrian didn’t relent in his assault. After all, Edgar had insisted on challenging him to a life-and-death duel. Therefore, Adrian saw no reason to hold back.

The Soul Devouring Sword transformed into countless streaks of energy, each one piercing through Edgar’s body.

"Aahhh!!" Edgar’s scream filled the air as he felt his strength rapidly slipping away. Desperately, he roared, “No! I won’t die like this!”

    Adrian hung up and sat down to wait.After Devin heard what Adrian said, he chuckled. He knew that Daniel was a big shot in Swallowston and that he was the general who worked under the legate.

Too bad his son isn’t.” Devin continued to laugh.He knew very well what happened to the Xanders since he was a local of Swallowston.Devin said, “Sure, I’ll wait with you. I’d like to see if you can really bring Daniel Summers here.”He then sat down on the couch, lit another cigarette, and crossed his legs.Adrian ignored him and closed his eyes to rest.Within ten minutes, just as Devin was arrogantly enjoying his cigarette, the door of the office was kicked open again and Daniel, who was in uniform, walked in.

    Observing the scene before him, Adrian smiled calmly and said, “Trying to defend yourself? I already told you this is the end of the line for you. Why don’t you believe me?” Edgar was furiously swinging his sword, unwilling to believe Adrian could deliver a killing blow. He felt confident he could block all of Adrian’s attacks.But just as Adrian finished speaking, a wave of chaotic power erupted around them. His energy surged, making the very air tremble. The entire space seemed to quiver, and Adrian’s gaze grew sharper as he said, “This ends now.” The dozen or so Soul Devouring Swords rushing toward Edgar vanished into thin air, leaving only a single, true Soul Devouring Sword to appear right above his head. This blade radiated an intense, dark energy while hurtling down toward Edgar with deadly precision. Edgar was horrified and desperately tried to evade, but it was too late. Crash! The raging Soul Devouring Sword struck down, crushing with immense force. Edgar was paral

    “How is this possible?” Edgar watched in sheer horror as Adrian’s sword seemed to shatter the very fabric of space. The scene unfolding before him was too strange to believe, yet it was happening right before his eyes. The blade seemed to tear through space, arriving ominously behind Edgar, who was left in utter disbelief. Desperate, Edgar raised his own sword to block the incoming attack. Clang! Clang! Clang! The impact echoed as Edgar’s sword was violently knocked aside, sent flying in an instant. The sheer force was staggering, and Edgar’s face darkened as he observed the terrifying power of Adrian’s sword. Ordinary swords couldn’t cut through the air like this, but Adrian’s blade proved it could.It was only then Edgar realized that Adrian’s power was on a whole other level. Struggling to comprehend, he demanded, “How can you be so strong?” Adrian simply smiled. “It’s nothing special. You call yourself invincible, yet you’ve never seen the true world outside.

    Adrian looked at Edgar and smiled calmly. "You already experienced one sword strike. Now, let's try another. I want you to fully understand your weakness." Adrian’s calm taunts were a blatant provocation, showing utter disdain for Edgar.Furious, Edgar glared at Adrian. He knew Adrian was pushing his limits with such contempt."You might think your strength is impressive, but if I go all out, you're nothing more than an ant," Edgar said. He was confident that, despite Adrian’s apparent power, he was still far beneath him. Adrian responded with a slight, cool smile. While Edgar had the credentials to speak this way, he was underestimating Adrian. After all, Adrian’s strength was formidable. If he unleashed his full power, Edgar wouldn’t be able to withstand it.To an outsider, Edgar’s strength might appear to be on par with Adrian's, but Adrian’s power transcended that comparison by a tier. The moment he went all-out, Edgar wouldn’t stand a chance. Nearby, Renee looked on in su

    With a calm smile, Adrian said, "Your strength is impressive, but thinking you can kill me is a bit overconfident." His words echoed across the trembling land, yet Edgar refused to believe that Adrian could be so formidable.Waves of power rippled forth while Renee stood transfixed, feeling the intensifying killing intent in the air.At that moment, Adrian unleashed a surge of energy, which instantly struck Edgar, sending him hurtling backward."How can he be this strong?" Edgar was stunned, completely at a loss. Despite his formidable strength, he was simply thrown aside by Adrian.Adrian asked, "What’s wrong? Am I too strong for you? How does it feel?"The killing intent in Adrian's gaze intensified, freezing Edgar on the spot. Edgar clenched his sword and prepared to strike again. He couldn’t believe the difference in power. He had to defeat Adrian, or he’d never let it go.Suddenly, Adrian vanished, leaving Edgar bewildered as he couldn’t sense Adrian’s presence. In the n

    Edgar was determined to annihilate Adrian, and so he charged up his attack once again. The ground quaked, and towering trees fell one after another.Adrian’s eyes glinted coldly as he watched the scene unfold. He understood exactly what was happening and knew there would be no peace until one of them was defeated.Filled with a bloodthirsty desire, Edgar wanted nothing more than to kill Adrian. Adrian’s face darkened as he prepared to meet him with equal ruthlessness.At that moment, Edgar finally finished charging his attack and rushed forward. His sword transformed into countless blades that sliced through the air with devastating force.Adrian sneered. "Oh? So, you do have some skills, but I still advise you to surrender."Hearing this, Edgar's face twisted in anger. Adrian's remark felt like a blatant insult as if he was looking down on him."I’m going to destroy you!" Edgar swung his sword from an unexpected angle, aiming to break through Adrian’s defenses.Adrian sneered an

    Adrian spoke calmly as he led Renee swiftly onward. He had no intention of lingering here. His destination lay elsewhere, and he didn’t want to waste time.As for the man pursuing them, Adrian had already gauged his abilities from his sword techniques. At most, Edgar had some skill, but Adrian was confident he could overpower Edgar in swordsmanship.Edgar, fuming with rage, shouted, “I don’t believe it! Are you some kind of sword expert?”Edgar’s attacks grew even more ferocious, his swordsmanship wild and fierce, as he charged forward. He was determined to end Adrian’s life here and now. Being known for his swordsmanship, Edgar could not tolerate being treated with such disdain. His heart burned with fury and unwillingness.Adrian glanced back dismissively and said, “I already told you, your swordsmanship is child’s play. Yet you refuse to believe it. How pitiful.”Edgar was nearly driven mad with rage. He had honed his swordsmanship for years, yet Adrian mocked it as child’s pla
