“Mother!”"No…"Several cries came one after the other, and Samantha knew that Violet had left for the next life. She wrapped her arms around Adrian's neck and buried her face into his chest. She cried, her body trembling as tears drenched her cheeks.Adrian held Nova with one hand, stroking Samantha's hair with the other. In a consoling voice, he said, "There are times when we can only allow nature to take its course rather than trying to change it. It was bound to happen someday.""I know,” Samantha lamented, "But I wasn't expecting for this day to arrive so soon. She may have been unkind to me in the past, but she…she's still my grandmother."Adrian said nothing in reply. Instead, he held her tight in his embrace, catching a whiff of the fragrance coming from her hair."Can I help out with her funeral?" Samantha asked, her face still buried against Adrian's chest."As much as you should be there to help. There's something even more important you need to do right now," Adrian

Adrian and Samantha went back home to drop Nova off. After that, they headed to Paraiso, heading straight for the research group's main office.The research group's experiments had been ongoing ever since Samantha's New Paraiso, Danton, and other major corporations teamed up to study cancer. Aside from that, Adrian had convinced Kendall, who used to be Henry's subordinate, to join the team. Because of this, the research group's progress sped up by leaps and bounds.The couple arrived at the main office, where Danton and a few other investors were having a meeting. Danton and the others instantly got up when they saw the couple walking in."Ms. Samantha, War Legate Draco. What brings you two here?""Ms. Samantha.""War Legate Draco.”Everyone greeted in unison, causing a smile to grace Samantha’s face. After walking into the office, she said, "Please, everyone, take a seat. We're all in the same boat, so there's no need for you to be so formal.""Understood. Please, have a seat!"
The Return of the War Legate Chapter 936
Thus, there was still no special cure for cancer throughout the entire world."Is there no other way?" Adrian asked Kendall.Kendall shook his head and firmly replied, "Your father and I spent over a decade trying, but even with the advanced technology we have now, it's still a difficult task to accomplish. Every experimental process requires extreme precision. Also, experiments need to be conducted numerous times, which takes a lot of time."All there was left after that was silence...Adrian silently got up, choosing not to say anything more about the matter. "All right, you guys go ahead and get back to work. I'll be leaving now," he said.Danton and the others stood up.After Adrian headed outside, Samantha turned around, looked at Kendall, and said, "Mr. Kendall, this friend is important to Adrian, so please find a way to help him. Also, I'll be here tomorrow to help work with you all on finding a cure." She then got up and left too.Adrian seemed somewhat absent-minded aft

This was Adrian’s first time feeling so powerless. He now understood what it meant when fate wished to play a prank on someone.***After standing before Henry's grave for a very long time, Adrian finally returned home at sundown. He retired to his room after having dinner, with Nova sleeping by his side.Gloria was taking a bath, while Samantha washed Nova’s clothes.These were undeniably the happiest days of Adrian's life. Yet, he could not help but feel that something was about to happen soon."You seem really out of it these few days. Is it because of Riley and Benson? Or is it something else?" Samantha asked as she walked out of the washroom after she finished washing Nova's clothes.Adrian took a look at his daughter, who was soundly asleep but did not answer Samantha's question. Seeing this, Samantha sighed and tidied up their wardrobe.Meanwhile, Gloria walked out of the bathroom wrapped in a bathrobe. She had overheard Samantha and Adrian's conversation. As she dried he

Riley remained silent, her eyes seemed exhausted and filled with tears as she walked toward Adrian.Adrian felt his heart tremble as he figured out what was happening.The commotion in the courtyard attracted Rue and Gloria's attention. Confused, they came out of the villa. Rue quickly spoke up when she saw Riley."Riley? What are you doing here?"Yet, Riley still remained silent. She powerlessly walked up to Adrian before looking up at him. With a hoarse voice, she said, "Help me."Adrian became stunned."Please, help me… You have to save him!" Her tears fell uncontrollably, and her entire being trembled.Rue wiped away her tears, walking over to prop Riley up. "Riley…"Riley pushed Rue away. "Help me!" she yelled.Her voice was hoarse as she yelled hysterically. She got down on her knees before Adrian as she pleaded, "Please, Adrian, you have to help him! Please!"Riley had already lost her voice at this point. She thought she was going to be able to live a happy life, but
The Return of the War Legate Chapter 939
Adrian was heartbroken to hear Riley's hysterical cry, but he could not bring himself to promise her such a thing. Instead, all he could do at that moment was hold her tight in his arms.Trying to console her, he said, "I promise that I'll hire the best doctors in the world to treat him, but I want you to promise me that you'll face this matter bravely.""But I-I can't… I'm afraid! I can't do it!" Riley cried."You have to face it even if you're afraid. You're going to have to move forward no matter how scared you are. I can't promise that I can cure him, but I can promise that I’ll do everything in my power to save him as long as he's still alive. However, I don't wish to see you like this, understand?" Adrian said softly.Riley‘s only reply was she crying.After holding her in his embrace for a long time, Adrian helped Riley to her feet. He held her face and looked her in the eyes. "Remember Riley… I will be with you all the way, no matter what happens. You're a member of the Xa

Once Rue and Riley were inside the villa, Gloria folded her arms and looked at Adrian. "I might have a way to help cure cancer, but I'm not sure if it'll work.""What is it?" Adrian asked."We could use my blood as a cure."Adrian was slightly dazed when he heard this. 'Gloria's blood cells are definitely superhuman, and it's still undergoing mutation. It's like she can’t get sick right now. Maybe we could extract the cells in her blood, which might be able to kill cancer cells.'He smiled when he heard Gloria's idea and said, "You seem pretty dumb, but you come up with splendid ideas when it comes down to it. I underestimated you.""F*ck off!" Gloria glared at him."Get change. I'm taking you to New Paraiso. We'll contact Winslow's medical team and ask them to provide some data. Let's see if your idea actually pans out."Gloria nodded and followed Adrian into the villa. As she went to change, Adrian waited for her in the living room. Rue made a plate of pasta and Riley ate it w

Adrian suddenly seemed a little weak after hanging up. A moment later, he spat out an entire mouthful of blood before falling limp against the couch."Adrian!""Adrian!""Adrian!"Rue, Riley, and Gloria instantly rushed to Adrian's side and helped him up. His eyes were in a daze, and his pupils seemed to be filled with an endless void.Meanwhile, Novemton News continued to broadcast."Lucas Jenner, Steel, and two more battle warriors from Wyvern Peak are currently trapped inside Serpent's Haven. Novemton has already called for an urgent conference at headquarters…"The series of news echoed throughout every single nerve within Adrian.The Eight Hollows had appeared.The eight-man group and Dragon Peak had finally taken action against Wyvern Peak. This was going to be the biggest internal strife Wyvern Peak would have ever been through.And Daniel had fallen in battle.Adrian could not understand why, but he felt extremely helpless at that moment. He had no idea what to do or

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

"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
