Adrian smiled and said, “You ladies could stay at my place, but it won’t be for free. You’re all highly trained assassins from Bloody Rose, which makes you very organized. I’d like you to work for me.”“Not a chance. We’re not going to help you with anything or kill anyone. We won’t get involved in the strife between you and Chase. We may be killers, but we’ve never harmed one of our own, so you can forget about it.”“Is there really no room for negotiation here?”“Yes,” Ivy answered firmly. She then added, “We were forced to work for Bloody Rose in the first place. Now that that part of our life is over, we’ll never return to it even if we have to die.”Adrian asked, “But what if I can help you by saving all of your sisters that Bloody Rose is holding hostage?”“What?!”Ivy was slightly startled when she heard this. She exchanged glances with Eira, while Mya’s eyes curved up as she smiled and observed.“Are you pulling my leg? You think you can save them? Even if you can defeat

Mya left right after Adrian.Eira and Ivy paused for a moment before going to look for their sisters, all while Adrian’s words rang in their ears.***It was late at night by the time Adrian walked out of Battle Warrior Tower, where a woman had been waiting for him for a long time.It was Shirley.“Adrian!” Shirley walked over to him the moment she spotted him exiting the building, but she did not look very happy.Adrian stopped and remained silent.Shirley and Christina had been busy arranging Kayn’s funeral while Adrian was not around. In a way, it was Shirley’s way of fulfilling her duties as his daughter.“I just wanted to tell you that Mother and I have found a place in Swallowston, so we won’t be coming here unless we have to.”Adrian nodded.Logically, Shirley should hate Adrian’s guts for killing her father. But the truth was, as much as she hated him, Adrian had no choice at the time.“Go on. I wish you both a good life,” Adrian said.Shirley took a deep breath bef

Samantha put down her book and looked at Adrian. “I just got up. By the way, what’s the story with those women? Did you manage to find anything?”Adrian hummed in acknowledgment and got onto the bed. He then stroked Samantha’s belly and said, “I suppose you could say that.”Samantha’s interest was piqued. “Well, go on. What’s the story?”Adrian told Samantha what he had found. After hearing all of it, she seemed shocked as she said, “I didn’t know this Eternity woman even existed. Who is she? Do you think she’s an even bigger threat than Chase?”“I’m not sure,” Adrian replied honestly.“Do you think you can handle her?” Samantha asked with a concerned expression.“She’s human with a head and limbs, just like the rest of us. Never think that you’re weaker than others. We all have a brain, and it’s up to us how we choose to use it.” Adrian pointed at Samantha’s head.“Get lost. Are you trying to imply that I’m stupid?” Samantha rolled her eyes and continued, “They say women become

Adrian sat in the lobby after they all left.Shortly after, Mya walked over and said, “Sir, our men from Azure Creek called. They said that a professor from Azure Creek University has made a copy of the book you retrieved.”Adrian quickly replied upon hearing this, “Excellent. Have them deliver it to Swallowston immediately. I’m taking all of you for a spin tonight!”Although Mya was not aware of Adrian’s plans, she could make an educated guess. She went on to do as she was told, and someone was sent over from Azure Creek University to deliver the book.One hour later, Ivy, Eira, and the other women returned to the lobby. They had changed into short skirts or pants, filling the entire place with their fair and slender legs.As the leader, Ivy walked up to Adrian and said, “We’re all ready to go. Is there anything you’d like to say first?”Adrian gazed at the women for a while…“I think it’s about time you all changed your clothes. Let’s make them look more similar. Mya, have som

However, Adrian got up and left without explaining anything.***Ivy and the others returned to their respective rooms to get some rest. Probably due to fatigue from the chaos of the past few days. they all slept until twelve midnight, which was when Mya woke them up.The women recalled what Adrian said that morning and were curious about what kind of show Adrian was going to put on, so Ivy, Eira, and the rest got out of their beds and quickly washed their faces. After they were all gathered, Ivy led them to meet up with Adrian, who had already been waiting outside the tower for a long time.The moment they arrived, Mya said, “Your battle suits are inside the vehicle, so gear up, adjust your communicators, and get ready. We’re leaving in ten minutes.”The women took out their gears from the vehicle upon hearing this. They were battle suits that Mya had spent the day getting ready for them.The Ivy Sisters quickly changed into their gear, seeming extremely excited while doing so a

These were women who had been living in the shadows for a long time, so it made sense they would be extra sensitive to anything or anyone outside of their lives.They did not need to be moved, nor did they need anyone’s trust.What they needed was to stay alive.The reason why Eira questioned Ivy was that she and the others did not understand Adrian’s ways. In fact, they did not even hold any high hopes for him.They were only staying with him as a means to their survival.“Eira’s right, Ivy. Draco’s clearly a bad person to have around. Who knows what will happen to us if we stay here,” one of the other women said with her lips pursed.“We’re all displeased with Draco, plus, we don’t even know what Wyvern Peak wants.”“I mean, are we supposed to help him if Wyvern Peak wants us to clean up Internal Affairs and overthrow the emperor?”The women began making wild assumptions, causing Ivy to sigh helplessly. “I know you all have your grievances, but we’re completely out of options

An explosion suddenly erupted from the street, making a deafening boom.Everyone looked over and saw that the SUV driving on the streets had exploded with thick smoke coming from it. The entire street instantly crumbled, leaving the vehicle stuck in between the cracks that opened up.At that moment, a voice spoke through everyone’s communicators, “They’re here, sir!”Naturally, Eira and the others heard this since they were all wearing their communicators.‘They?’The women seemed confused for a moment, while Adrian stood up and said, “I see that.”He watched the halted vehicle, from which five men in Wyvern Peak’s battle suits got out. At the same time, more than a hundred assassins swarmed toward them from the forest.These assassins were extremely quick, surrounding them from all directions within seconds.“It’s them!” Ivy said in shock when she saw the assassins.Immediately after she said this, Eira and the other women trembled, beads of sweat forming on their foreheads.
The Return of the War Legate Chapter 713
But when Ivy saw how determined Adrian was, she took a deep breath and said, “Nyssa, Arianne, Phoenix, Jenine… Go assist them. But do be careful.”The women locked their sights on the battle below. Immediately upon receiving their orders, they drew their daggers and sped down the mountains toward the street.The other women started trembling when the four left. Some were even tearing up.Ivy was most definitely in tears as she looked at Adrian. “Surely there are other ways to have us killed, right? You’ve clearly sent the four of them to their deaths. They’re naturally frightened of assassins and can’t muster up any fighting spirit under such circumstances!”Adrian chose not to answer Ivy’s question.Evident from their swooping shadow, Nyssa and the others were almost at the battlefield. Ivy saw this and became even more anxious. “Why aren’t you answering me? We’re all pitiful women who were bullied back in Bloody Rose, but that’s fine. Why would you do such a thing to us after we

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 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
