Andrius was furious. His expression was dark as he scanned the surroundings and shouted, “Who is behind this despicable act? Come forward and face your death!”Swoosh...Crash—As soon as Andrius spoke, a large group of people appeared in his sight.Leading them was a man with sharp features, whose appearance was far from ordinary. It was none other than Norvin from the Swallows!Behind him was a massive group of people. The elders and elite members of the family had all gathered.“Norvin Swallow!” Andrius’ eyes were nearly spewing fire. He shouted, “Today is the day my master’s tomb is being raised, but you brought your people here to disturb the ceremony. What do you want?”“Raising a tomb is not a problem.”Norvin led his group to stand several meters away from Andrius and looked directly at him, speaking loudly. He was showing blatant disregard for the many influential figures in the area.“However, you must come with us today, Andrius! Otherwise, you won’t be able to rai
He also struck out a palm and met Norvin’s attack.Andrius remained calm and said lightly, “Norvin, since your family is after me, don’t involve the others. Whether or not you can take me away will depend on your ability!”“Hahaha...” Norvin could not help but burst into laughter at Andrius’ words.The Swallow family behind him also joined in the laughter. They laughed heartily to the point of being unable to breathe. It was as if they had heard the funniest joke of the century.After a while, Norvin slowly stopped and looked at Andrius mockingly. “Andrius, did you damage your brain after falling into the magma? Do you really think that you can challenge me just because you managed to defeat Osian?“Today, I’ll show you how terrifying the power of a Martial God expert is!”Norvin’s eyes stared at Andrius like a cat toying with a mouse. “If you don’t fall within three bouts, I’ll end this matter here today!”Three bouts?Andrius chuckled and said to Registus and Luna, “Step back
Norvin’s figure shifted with lightning speed and arrived in front of Andrius, striking out a palm without hesitation.Bam!Andrius fearlessly met the strike head-on.Norvin’s figure staggered slightly, retreating several steps before stabilizing himself.Andrius’ form swayed, and he stepped back three paces before stopping.The first bout ended with both sides evenly matched.“Tsk, tsk, tsk...” Andrius clicked his tongue disdainfully. “I thought the head of the Swallows would be impressive, but it turns out you’re just a clown.”A clown!Norvin was furious. “Andrius Moonshade, don’t be arrogant. Even if you have the strength of a Martial Emperor, you’re still insignificant!”In his view, although he had only used twenty percent of his power earlier, Andrius’ ability to withstand it undoubtedly indicated that he had the strength of a Martial Emperor. Otherwise, Andrius would not have been able to take that strike without any harm.“Stop barking.” Andrius said flippantly, “The
“Since you’re so good with words, I suggest you talk while you still can.” Norvin’s face turned sinister, and his eyes exploded with a fierce glint. “Because when I catch you, I’ll knock your teeth out one by one. Then, I’ll slowly interrogate your secrets out of you!”He turned to the First Elder and shouted, “Bring me the sword!”The First Elder immediately tossed a long sword to him.Swoosh—Norvin skillfully caught the sword and unexpectedly gently wiped it clean.“This sword is called the ‘Infernal Blade’. It’s a precious heirloom of the Swallow family!” Norvin cleaned it while speaking in a confident and proud tone, “I’ve roamed the ancient martial world for many years, but I’ve only used it twice.“The first time was when I had the strength of a late-stage Martial King. I used the Infernal Blade to escape alive from a Martial Emperor.“The second time was when I was a mid-stage Martial Emperor. I used the ultimate skill of the Swallow family, the Sparrow’s Thirteen Blades
“Yearnings of the past lie in memories, but yearnings of the present are boundless. The first blade: the thoughts of longing!”“Endless time comes to an end, but this regret endures forevermore. The second blade: the pain of separation!”...Norvin wielded the sword while reciting the blade’s key principles. His voice was clear and precise, and his actions were swift and sharp.In just ten seconds, seven astonishing sword energies enveloped Andrius from various angles. The sword energy surged like a wave, rapidly approaching. Killing intent howled in the biting cold wind.“This kind of sword energy...”“Even if Andrius has reached the realm of Martial God, there’s no doubt he’ll lose.”“It’s all over.”“End it here!”...Such thoughts emerged in the Swallow family experts’ heads. They had full confidence in their family head.Whirr...Andrius had just broken through to the Martial God realm and had not cultivated the corresponding technique yet, so he had to rely on his inn
“Attack!”The Swallow family’s experts shouted in unison and prepared to attack.Registus’ face was nearly bursting with rage as he reprimanded, “Norvin Swallow! Are you really going to go back on your word in front of everyone in Florence? Do you not care about the Swallow family’s reputation?”“Reputation?” Norvin said disdainfully, “When the Swallows become the number one in the world, who would dare say that we lack reputation? Hahaha...”Norvin imagined the Swallows being revered and worshipped by thousands and could not help but laugh arrogantly.The experts from the Swallow family joined in.“Enough.” Norvin’s face suddenly turned sinister as he ordered, “All members of the Swallow family, take Andrius down.”“Attack!”The experts immediately gathered their inner energy and prepared to capture Andrius.Swoosh...Whoosh...Swish...Suddenly, powerful auras surged from all directions. Over a dozen figures rushed out from the surrounding mountains. It was the four elder
This time, even Novin could not remain calm.He glanced around with a gloomy expression, his icy gaze fixed on Damian, Ronald, and Tyrell. Then, he said in a low voice, “Are you three truly intending to turn against the Swallow family just to protect Andrius?”The three exchanged glances, and Tyrell said, “Norvin, we have no intention of fighting the Swallows. We’re only here today for self-preservation!“Now that the time for the Ancient Martial Assembly has been set, it’s not appropriate for you to act against Andrius. You should put aside all grudges and conflicts before the assembly.“When the day of the Ancient Martial Assembly arrives, the moment that the Ancient Martial Alliance Chief is elected will be the time to settle all grudges.“On that day, we won’t object no matter how you act against Andrius.”Tyrell and the others were well aware that the Swallow family’s strength would undoubtedly increase if Andrius fell into the hands of Norvin. At that time, according to Nor
“How did your strength increase so rapidly in such a short period and attract Norvin’s attention?”They all knew that Norvin would not act preemptively without reason. Today, he mobilized all his forces to capture Andrius, indicating that something was going on.Andrius stared at them and said slowly, “Today is the day we’re paying respects to my master. If you’ve come here with sincere intentions to pay your respects, then I welcome you here. However, if you have other motives, then please leave now.”After saying that, the aura of a Martial God surged out from within him, feeling vast like an ocean and majestic like a mountain.The three family heads exchanged glances and smiled. “You’re overthinking, Andrius. All three of our families received invitations and specifically came here to pay respects to Old Hagstorm.”Invitations?Andrius frowned and looked back at Registus who also seemed confused and shook his head to indicate that he did not send the invitations.Andrius was
