The Return of the War Legate Chapter 641
Adrian had barely spoken this whole time, and Nadine was having a hard time reading his mind.She kept quiet for a while upon hearing Mya’s statement. A few minutes later, she asked, “How about the rest of the Gardners?”“Chase has imprisoned them too,” Adrian replied.Nadine appeared to be rather dejected and lowered her head once again.Perhaps understanding what Nadine was thinking, Adrian said, “Come back to Swallowston with me and we’ll plan what to do next.”Nadine nodded and did not comment further. Her life had taken a drastic turn all of a sudden and had no idea what her future looked like.The only thing she knew was that she was now all alone.***The helicopter landed in Swallowston at three in the afternoon.Adrian took Nadine to Swallowston and planned to let her stay here for a while. He tasked Mya with continuing the investigation into the related matters.Meanwhile, Adrian took Nadine to One Jewel Road after both of them disembarked the helicopter.Along the

Just as the trio was chatting away happily, Nadine walked over.She greeted, “Umm… Hey, everyone!”The three women turned their heads in unison upon hearing this and looked at Nadine. Joanna and Sarah immediately whispered to one another upon seeing the woman.Joanna said, “Are you seeing this, Sarah? Your godpa brought home a woman.”Sarah said, “She’s very pretty and much more mature than me.”Joanna grunted. “A beautiful woman usually isn’t a good woman.”Sarah looked at Joanna in a daze upon hearing this remark.Joanna hastily corrected herself as if she had noticed her slip of the tongue, “Umm, aside from the three of us, other beautiful women are not good women.”Sarah was rendered speechless.As the two whispered to one another, Samantha stood up and said, “You’re Nadine, right?”Samantha had called Adrian five times daily at the very least over the past few days. Being a competent wife, she had learned about this woman from the phone calls.Nadine sized up Samantha.
The Return of the War Legate Chapter 643
The three women burst out in laughter upon hearing Joanna’s remark.Joanna was a bubbly person and would only show this side of her to people who were sincere to her.Adrian was rendered speechless by Joanna’s words.Samantha was laughing so hard that she was bent over double.On the other hand, Joanna was still glaring at Adrian provokingly. He surrendered by ignoring her and said to Sarah, “Aren’t you living on your own, Sarah? How about having Nadine accompany you? Let her stay at your place for a bit.”“Okay, godpa.” Sarah made an okay hand gesture and winked at him.“Godpa?” Nadine’s eyes widened in surprise.Joanna chuckled and said, “Oh, you don’t know, Nadine. On the surface, Sarah appears cold and arrogant. But on the inside, she’s a masochist.”Nadine was at a loss for whether to laugh or cry.Adrian was rendered completely speechless by these two. One would always bring up explicit topics during conversations while the other non-stop addressed him as “godpa.” He had

Shirley answered, “I’m at home and am taking a shower. Would you like to join me, Legate? I’ll keep the door unlocked for you.”“Where’s your mother?” Adrian asked, ignoring Shirley’s question.“Don’t worry. Mother isn’t home. I’m all by myself here,” said Shirley.Adrian was rendered speechless. “I’m asking you where she is, not checking to see if you’re home alone.”Adrian ruined Shirley’s wonderful fantasy.Shirley answered with an “ah” and said, “Mother’s at the construction site—the same one I brought you to previously. Why?”Upon hearing this, Adrian hastily said, “I’m rushing over to your house right now. I’ll be there in roughly two hours. I’m going to give you two tasks now and you must do as I say.”Noticing that Adrian sounded rather off, Shirley said anxiously, “What’s going on?”He instructed, “Lock all the doors and windows of your house right now, and don’t open the door to anyone who comes knocking. Also, reach out to the residents of your residential area via t
The Return of the War Legate Chapter 645
Following Christina’s departure, the Internal Affairs personnel that had just walked into the construction site noticed that she was nowhere to be found.A young man said to the leading, middle-aged man, “Mr. Westin, she’s not here.”The middle-aged man was Westin Yoder, and he was the leader of Southeast’s Internal Affairs.An hour ago, he received a call from Novemton’s Internal Affairs, tasking him with capturing Christina and Shirley. Though he had no idea what the purpose was, he did not have the courage to disobey Novemton’s orders.Westin said hastily after noticing that Christina had left, “After her!”“Yes, sir!”More than ten Internal Affairs personnel got into their cars and pursued Christina’s car.On the road ahead, Christina turned her car onto the main street. She saw the cars pursuing her through the rearview mirror and grew anxious. However, she did not linger. She subconsciously knew that she would suffer if Internal Affairs got their hands on her.The only pe

Gabriel furrowed his eyebrows.He was eager to perform a meritorious service to Novemton and was infuriated when the door remained tightly shut. He said, “No one’s home? The investigation showed that Shirley is currently in the house, and you’re telling me there’s no one inside? How is that possible?”Someone continued to knock on the door upon hearing Gabriel’s retort.Gabriel said furiously, “Enough, stop knocking. She won’t open the door even if you knocked it until it breaks. Break the door down. We’re going in by force!”“Yes, sir!”Two minutes later, Gabriel’s subordinate brought out a huge hammer and raised it before violently pounding on the door.Bang, bang, bang!The sounds of pounding rang out as the door was pounded to splinters. The lock broke with a loud clang and the door toppled to the ground with a loud bang.Internal Affairs had broken into the house.“It’s open, Mr. Gabriel!”“Go, go.” Gabriel beckoned his subordinates.Upon saying that, he strode into the

Stomp, stomp, stomp!Two people stepped forward upon receiving Gabriel’s order and forcefully pulled Shirley out of the closet.“Don’t touch me!” she shrieked as she began to struggle.However, these men were so strong that she could not get out of their grip.Shirley was brought to stand before Gabriel.He took a few glances at her, smiled, and said, “Hey, you’re quite pretty. If Mr. Chase wasn’t asking for you, I’d love to spend some time with you.”“F*ck you!” Shirley glared at Gabriel ferociously. She angrily said, “Lackey of Internal Affairs’ Chase Gardner, let me tell you this. I’d rather sleep with a dog than a man like you. You’re disgusting.”Gabriel flew into a great rage and said, “You’re quite the talker. You think you’re capable huh? You should learn that your destiny is within my control now. If I want you to die at three o’clock, you won’t live until five!“Don’t ask me why. It’s because I’m the god king. Your destiny is mine to control!”Gabriel had a faint smi

Gabriel threw his head back and laughed again. “Since you know who I am, why aren’t you on your knees yet? Bow down and I may spare your life.“After all, no one who provokes me gets to live.”Adrian shook his head. He walked over and laid down on Shirley’s bed with his upper body leaning against the headboard. He chuckled. “Don’t be so hasty, Mr. Gabriel. I know who you are, but it seems that you don’t know who I am.”“I don’t need to know who you are. You’re a dog to me no matter who you are. You’re going to roll on your back, wag your tail, and show your belly, you dog,” Gabriel said bluntly.“You don’t want to hear my introduction first?” asked Adrian.“Hah-hah-hah!” Gabriel laughed frantically once again. “I told you, you’re just a dog to me no matter who you are. Why? Are you trying to show off your incompetence? I’m afraid that you’ve come to the wrong person.”Adrian did not reply.Gabriel chuckled and said, “Also, my position as the special zone’s leader is not a minor

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

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
