Chapter 781

Author: Celestial Clouds
Meanwhile, Adrian departed from Reagan’s place with Samantha and Mya.

Mya could not refrain from asking hesitantly, “Sir, why did you come to see Reagan today? I can see that he has already lost all hope in life.”

Since Reagan had chosen to live in seclusion, it meant that he was not planning to return to the modern world anymore. For a person born into a powerful, influential family, his personality was closely associated with that of weaklings.

“Only a person who has lost all hope can create hope again,” said Adrian while he walked.

Mya was extremely puzzled.

“What do you mean? Could Reagan bring some sort of hope to the people?” asked Mya.

“Reagan still has it in him so if he can bring himself to leave Mount Pallor, he will still be able to draw support from many Navians,” said Adrian.

Mya rolled her eyes. In truth, she did not regard Reagan as the man he was back in those years. She said, “I don’t agree. In my perception, Reagan’s willpower is gone. Even if he were to leave

    Samantha asked, “How do you know about Reagan’s daughter, dear? You haven’t joined Wyvern Peak yet at that time, right?”Adrian answered, “In truth, I began investigating the incident when I joined Wyvern Peak, and I found out that Reagan has a living daughter. I already sent someone to protect her in secret at her place of residence a few years ago.”Mya was enlightened. She narrowed her eyes and asked, “So what’s your intention? Are you really planning on getting the women to do things for you? That seems insane to me.”“Nothing is insane in this world. There’s only right or wrong,” said Adrian.“Even if that is the case, I feel that it’s not realistic for you to serve a woman. God knows what sort of person Crystal is. What if she is a deadbeat?” Mya refuted.Adrian looked toward Mya, “Based on my understanding, Crystal is a wise, capable woman. Her view of the world is different from yours and others. Moreover, I’ve already chosen her.”Samantha said, “Is the act of serving Cr

    Adrian and the others entered the forest and arrived at an area near the commotion.There was a campsite in the forest ahead and there were a few tents scattered around the area.

The sound of women’s screaming was heard coming from the tents. It sounded like they were trying to resist something.All of a sudden, a series of screams was heard followed by someone’s raging roar. A few young men were dragged out of their tents by the guards. The women in the tents were still screaming and sounds of men’s angry scolding could be heard occasionally.Ayden was among the young men pulled out by the guards.“What’s going on? What happened?” Samantha was puzzled by the scene that she was witnessing.Mya instantly recognized Ayden. She turned her head and glanced at Adrian. “Sir, it seems like those people who came with us earlier ha

    Ayden was unsettled.The young men with him who boasted about hiring online commenters to scold War Legate Draco were completely dumbfounded.They were rendered speechless.***Meanwhile, Adrian and the others who witnessed everything from nearby had already figured out the situation.Mya turned her head and asked Adrian, “Sir, should we get involved?”“Don’t meddle in other people’s matters.”Upon saying that, Adrian urged Samantha to keep walking.Adrian, Samantha, and Mya walked into the campsite. His intention was not to meddle in the situation, but this was the only path to return to Mount Pallor’s tourist spot.bodyguards and Ayden were shocked to find three people suddenly showing up in the forest.Ayden immediately recognized Adrian as soon as he saw Adrian. ‘Isn’t that the man who drove us here?’“Sir, my girlfriend isn’t pretty.

    “Aaah!”The sound of agonizing screams was heard coming from the forest as Adrian walked further away.One could imagine what was happening in the forest based on the agonizing screams.Samantha wanted to get Adrian to help them because of her kind nature. But she then recalled that when he protected the people, they insulted him, so she gave up on the idea.Mya was similarly frustrated.The people took it upon themselves to instigate public opinion online and forced the dismissal of Wyvern Peak. Today, they were hurt by Internal Affairs that they supported.It was Ayden’s most regretful decision he had ever made.***Soon, Adrian led Samantha and Mya out of the forest and arrived at Mount Pallor’s tourist spot. It was crowded with people as usual, and no one knew what was happening in the forest.With no plans to stay on Mount Pallor any longer, Adrian took the two women back to the hotel.Adrian went to take a shower upon arriving at the hotel.

    Over the next few days, Adrian took Samantha and Mya around almost every tourist attraction across the country.They visited more than ten cities and many of their old friends.During this period, Samantha felt that life was changing and felt stress-free and relaxed.However, the public opinions were still out there.***Half a month later, Adrian ended the trip to Skysouth and prepared to take Samantha home. However, he still had one last thing to do before he ended the trip.He wanted to visit a deceased comrade.It was a cold morning with bitter, piercing wind.

    Adrian would never forget what Denzel had asked him on the training ground in the past.“Adrian, since you joined Wyvern Peak, what’s your dream?”Adrian had never dreamt of becoming anything so he shook his head and said, “Nothing much. My grandfather sent me here in hopes that I will never return. I don’t know how long I’m going to last here.”Damsel chuckled and patted Adrian’s shoulder. “Let me tell you this, Adrian. Everyone should have dreams, including you. On the other hand, my dream is to become the war legate of Wyvern Peak. I want to lead Wyvern Peak to protect our country.”Becoming a war legate was Denzel’s dream. He did not abandon his dream even until his death.Denzel once said, “I’ll become Wyvern Peak’s war legate for sure. I’m going to do it. If I don’t accomplish anything and I have nothing in this world, what’s the point of me being alive?“Adrian, you too. You should have dreams, and your dream should be the same as mine.

If I could turn back time, I’d still come back to protect my sister without any hesitation. even if it means I have to die.“I want to be buried outside Hedgeville after I die.

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?

    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

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

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.

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. "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
