Stacey moved like lightning beside him. Her blade flashed through the air, severing hands, slashing throats, and dodging bullets with deadly precision. She fought with the precision of an assassin—every movement calculated, every strike lethal.A mercenary lunged at her with a shotgun, but she was already in motion. She twisted low, slashing through his knees, and before he could scream, she drove her blade through his throat. Blood sprayed across the room, but Stacey remained calm, unflinching.---Adam, meanwhile, was just getting warmed up. A hulking brute rushed him with a spiked club, grinning savagely. Adam merely smirked, waiting until the last second. Then, with a flicker of movement too fast to track, Adam's palm shot out like a cannon.BOOM!The impact blasted the man off his feet, sending him crashing through several tables, splinters flying everywhere. He didn’t get back up.A second later, three men surrounded Adam, all armed with knives. They closed in, grinning—until Ad
With a sharp whistle, Viper signaled toward the shadows at the far end of the room. Three figures emerged, their presence immediately filling the air with an oppressive aura. These weren’t ordinary fighters. Their steps were heavy with purpose, and their eyes carried the weight of countless battles.“These,” Viper said, gesturing to the trio, “are the ones you should really worry about. You’ve dealt with the riffraff. Now meet my real enforcers.”The men stepped forward, their eyes glowing faintly with power.“The Red Fang Brothers,” Viper continued with a smug grin. “Cultivators. Mid-tier. Not the highest in the food chain, but high enough that you’re not walking out of here alive.”Adam's sharp gaze assessed them. He could sense it instantly—these weren’t amateurs. Their cultivation was leagues above the grunts he had dismantled earlier. Each man radiated power, the kind that came from years of ruthless training. This wouldn’t be an easy fight.Stacey shot Adam a look. “These guys..
The moment Adam’s scream tore through the air, the entire room trembled. A shockwave of pure energy erupted from him, sending cracks spidering across the walls and shattering nearby bottles and glass. The ground quaked under his feet, and every light in the bar flickered violently. The aura around Adam became dense, suffocating, as if the very air bent to his will.The Red Fang Brothers staggered, momentarily stunned by the sheer pressure of Adam’s unleashed power. Even Viper raised an eyebrow, his devilish grin faltering for the first time. This wasn’t just any warrior standing before them—this was the Supreme General, a god of battle in human form.Before he agreed to face the supreme general, the information he received was: the supreme general is weakened after his last battle.But this—this is not what weakness is. This was sheer strength of a god. If this was his weakened State, just how powerful would he be in his prime?Adam rolled his neck slowly, his fists glowing faintly as
Viper’s grin widened, his tone laced with venom. “You don’t know what you’re asking for, General. That amulet isn’t something you can control. Hand it over? I’d rather die.”Adam’s expression remained calm, but his knuckles cracked as he clenched his fists. “That can be arranged.”Viper’s grin didn’t falter. With the precision of a seasoned fighter, he sprang from his position, launching a series of rapid strikes toward Adam. His hands blurred as he aimed for pressure points, knowing well that a fight against the Supreme General was no ordinary battle.Adam sidestepped effortlessly, reading Viper’s movements like an open book. With a swift motion, Adam parried the attacks, blocking each strike with ease. Viper’s fist shot toward Adam’s face, but Adam caught it mid-air, twisting Viper’s arm behind him with a bone-crunching sound.Viper grunted in pain but pivoted, using the momentum to flip himself free and deliver a spinning kick aimed at Adam’s ribs. The impact was fierce, but Adam b
As the smoke cleared, Adam stepped outside the bar, the chaos of the battle still fresh in his mind. He took a moment to gather himself, breathing in the cool night air to clear his head. He needed to act quickly. Stacey was out there, and he wouldn’t rest until she was safe.Pulling out his phone, he dialed a number, waiting impatiently as the line rang. After a few moments, a familiar voice answered.“Supreme General, what’s the situation?”“Blitz, I need you and Hammer here now. I’ve got a situation.”“On our way. What’s going on?”“Viper took Stacey. I need you to track him down and find her.”“Consider it done. We’ll be there in minutes.”Adam hung up, his heart racing. He knew Blitz and Hammer were two of his best subordinates—veterans he had personally trained. They were relentless in their missions and would do whatever it took to complete them.A few minutes later, the sound of approaching motorcycles filled the air. Adam turned to see Blitz, a tall man with a sharp jaw and p
Adam sat at the bar, swirling the drink in his glass. The thought of Stacey missing ate at him, twisting his insides. His grip tightened around the glass until the bartender shot a nervous glance his way, but Adam didn’t care.He knocked back the drink in one gulp and tapped the glass on the counter. “Another.”The bartender didn’t hesitate, refilling it without a word. The man could sense trouble and knew better than to ask questions.Adam stared at the drink, frustration boiling under the surface. He had the amulet, but it felt useless without Stacey. His mind kept flashing back to Viper’s smug face and how easily they had distracted him. He slammed his fist on the counter, making the bottles on the shelves rattle."Easy, man," the bartender muttered cautiously.Adam shot him a glare that shut him up.He lifted the glass to his lips but didn’t drink. He was furious at himself. He should have known better—Viper played him like a fool, and now Stacey was gone.Just then Adam felt he w
Adam sat on the edge of the bed, rubbing his temples. He was trying to get his mind of whatever happened last night with the strange lady, he was concerned with what she might've seen him as, it wasn't intentional he was also drunk, and she was extremely beautiful. Adam was ready to do anything to get her again.Just then , his phone buzzed on the nightstand. He groaned and reached for it.“Blitz?” Adam answered, his voice still groggy.“We’re outside, boss. Waiting for you by the hotel entrance.” Blitz’s voice was sharp and to the point.Adam sighed. “I’ll be there in five.”He ended the call and ran a hand through his hair. It was time to move. He couldn’t afford to get stuck thinking about last night. There were bigger things to handle—like finding Stacey and dealing with Viper.---Outside the hotel, the morning sun reflected off two sleek black cars, both guarded by men in sharp suits. Among them stood two figures, Blitz and Hammer, rarely seen in public but known throughout Stor
Tessa arrived at her family’s grand estate, her heart still heavy from everything that had happened. As soon as she stepped through the large oak doors, her parents rushed to meet her.“Tessa! Where have you been?” her mother asked, voice sharp with worry. “You didn’t come home last night!”Her father frowned, arms folded across his chest. “We’ve been looking for you all morning.”Tessa didn’t answer right away. The weight of last night still lingered in her mind—the betrayal, the humiliation, and waking up next to a complete stranger.Her mother narrowed her eyes. “And why did you leave Ethan at the bar?”"Ethan," she muttered under her breath, feeling her anger boil. Ethan was everything she despised. He was wealthy, good-looking, and came from a powerful family in Storm City. But his reputation was just as well-known—he was a notorious womanizer, changing partners like clothes.Tessa’s parents had been pressuring her to marry him, believing his family’s influence and wealth would s
