"Oh, I see," Ambrose says with a light chuckle and sneers. "You still don't want your son to find out you are the reason for his wife's death and your grandson, his mum's death, right? How pathetic. How long do you intend to hide it from them though? With the way things are going, sooner or later, they will still find out and will probably hate you for the rest of their lives.""You speak as if you've been bold enough to tell your son you had a hand in the death of his twin. Or have you?" Archibald scoffs.Turns out Mount Thunder Sect's Saint and Saintess are twins.Ambrose lets out a helpless sigh. "If you couldn't, how can I? He will probably hate me for the rest of his life as well when he finds out. We really made a grave mistake ten years ago. To think the matter has not been entirely resolved and the young prince can knock on our doors any day from now.""So this is why you want to kill him once and for all? So you will be free?""Indeed," Ambrose doesn't bother to hide it as he
"Very well, father. I'll go inform Reginald of our decision so he can make necessary arrangements.""Sure, go ahead," Horace waves him off dismissively, placing his hands behind his back.Archibald bows before walking away.Meanwhile, after leaving the Cadens Manor, Ambrose heads straight to the Xaviers.At this moment, in the Xaviers Manor, Rutherford is sitting in a lotus position in front of his room, his eyes shut. He appears to be in the middle of cultivation.WHOOSH!Suddenly, a gush of wind bellows, and the next second, Ambrose appears.Feeling the presence of someone, Rutherford slowly opens his eyes and stares at the visitor. His eyes show a hint of surprise as he sees who it is. But he quickly composes himself and turns away. As the Patriarch of the Xaviers, he has naturally been expecting Ambrose to pay them a visit. But he didn't expect it to be so soon."Is this how you welcome a visitor and one of my status and rank?" Ambrose asks in displeasure, seeing that he is being
"Good! Good!" Ambrose exclaims excitedly. "Now, only the Spears are left. Mr. Xavier, Cornelius, I'll take my leave now." He turns to his father. "Are you coming with me, father?""No, you should be able to handle that. Meet me back here when you've settled it. I'll catch up on some matters with Percival."Ambrose doesn't argue. He bows and vanishes."Go ahead, Cornelius, I'll have a few words with Octavius," Percival says."Alright," Cornelius nods and walks away, leaving only Octavius and Percival."So what is it you want to talk about?" Percival looks at Octavius."Didn't you ask how I became a Tradecental celestial god? I stayed back to tell you the story or don't you want to hear it anymore?""Of course, I do. Why won't I? Come on, let's go.""Mmm," Octavius hums and follows after him.After leaving the Xaviers, Ambrose doesn't directly head to the Spears as he planned but instead decides to make a stop at the Cadens. At this moment, in the Cadens foyer, Archibald is giving som
"With this zeal and mindset, you will definitely go far in life!" Ambrose's familiar voice suddenly sounds and he materializes beside Fane and pats him on the shoulder. "Retain this mindset and you will lead your family to glory in no distant time!"He then turns to Lucius and smiles. "Lucius.""It's Mount Thunder Sect's leader!" A member of the Spears exclaims, unconsciously taking two steps backward."I've been wondering who can dare address the Patriarch by his name so it's him!" "It really is!" The appearance of Ambrose causes the foyer to break out in a frenzy."Ambrose, my son just mentioned not long ago that you should be on your way here and it turned out you were. Welcome, we have wine, fruits and food; what will you like to have?""I've been talking so much. Wine and berries wouldn't be a bad idea," Ambrose smiles, not refusing the gesture.Lucius smiles right back at him and claps his hand. Almost immediately, two beautiful maids walk in and bow to him."Patriarch," they s
After leaving the Spears Manor, Ambrose heads directly to the Xaviers. His father had told him to come meet him there after he was done convincing the Spears. He has a smile on his face as he traverses through the wind. When he left his Sect earlier today, he wasn't sure about convincing all three families of the invincible four.He had felt that he would consider it mission successful if he was at least able to convince one or two of them, but the heavens appeared to be smiling on him, and he achieved a feat that has never been achieved before—joining the three families together for a cause."Hahaha!" A loud laughter bubbles out of his throat as he lands softly on the Xaviers Manor, making his way to where his father's aura is most potent.In no time, he arrives in front of a stream. The stream appears to have been split apart, standing on both sides like walls."This," his mouth twitches slightly."Ambrose, you are back," Octavius says, turning to look at his son, who has a shocked
Lorenzo glares at him and snaps, "Yes! That's how much I love fighting! If not for your martial power, do you think you would stand a chance against me? If you think you are so capable, then let me out and fight with me with only your manpower! If I don't beat you up, call me a bastard!""Bastard!" Cassius grins. "I just called you that, what else?""You..." Lorenzo points at him, his body trembling in rage. "I said...""I heard what you said," Cassius cuts him off coldly. "I just didn't react to it because I would be stooping to your classless level if I take up your challenge. Before I became a martial artist, what did you think I was doing? Playing with sand?"Bruh, I was a boxer! I claimed the title of the king of underground boxing! I rose to my mortal limits before I delved into the journey of martial arts. I'm a lion! A mountain lion at that! A rat like you just doesn't stand a chance. Without my powers, I will still beat you black and blue! Even our female slave will achieve s
In the Spears...After walking for a while, Gaius comes before a red mountain. The entirety of the mountain is so red resembling a volcanic mountain. And the heat it exudes is so intense that it can dissolve an ordinary mortal even from twenty meters away. Even Gaius though a powerful artist can only go as far as ten meters deeper before stopping in his tracks. Clearly, he knows if he went any further, he would be dissolved in the blink of an eye. Looking at a certain spot at the foot of the mountain that looks like a door, Gaius channels his energy into his vocal cord and yells, "Father, I, Gaius Spear, the Grand Patriarch, has come to see you. Please come out and have a few words with your son."There is total silence for a few minutes before a red light flickers and an aged man appears in front of him. The entire being of the aged man exudes a ferocious hotness that Gaius has to take more than ten steps backwards. Yet, even at that distance he can still slightly feel the heat. H
In a quaint old farmer's house, a middle-aged man, wearing worn-out clothes and carrying a watering can, whistles happily as he tends to his garden. Anyone who sees this man will naturally assume he is a farmer but only when you come a bit closer to him will you realize that despite his appearance as a humble farmer, an unmistakable noble aura surrounds him, comparable to the king of a kingdom. Simultaneously, a menacing bloodthirsty aura emanates from him as if he has lived most of his life on the battlefield.Looking at this man, it is as if he lives two lives as his appearance and aura contradict each other. However, he doesn't seem to care about those two as he continues to whistle and joyfully water his garden.Suddenly, a figure flickers across the old house and the middle-aged man halts his movement, turning to look at a certain spot. A frown creases his brow as his gaze lands on the unwanted visitor standing in front of his house."Your Majesty." Ignoring the frown on the ol
