The night wind swept over the Weston estate, carrying a biting chill mixed with the lingering stench of smoke and blood.Narcissa fled Oakvale in disgrace, cradling the severely injured and unconscious Kael as a handful of loyal guards escorted her out of the city. They sought temporary refuge in a hidden outpost deep within the remote mountains.The monastery there had been abandoned for years. Amid the crumbling walls and shattered pillars, a few side rooms were still mostly intact.Moonlight filtered through the broken window frames, casting over her twisted, pale face and sharpening its sinister angles."Mom… It hurts…" Kael murmured, still unconscious, his small body curling in pain.Narcissa carefully laid him on a broken bed covered with thick blankets and checked his injuries.Although Blanche's strike hadn't killed Kael outright, her icy spiritual energy had infiltrated his circulatory pathways, severely damaging his fragile core. Without immediate treatment, the damage

"How arrogant!" Narcissa roared as her hands formed a series of hand seals.A purple lightning bolt shot from her palms straight toward Blanche.Seeing that, Blanche didn't dodge. She just raised her right hand, and a white barrier shimmered into existence. The lightning struck the shield with a thunderous crack but dissipated harmlessly."How is that possible?" Narcissa's face twisted in disbelief. "You're seriously wounded. How can you still fight like this?"Blanche didn't answer. In a blur of motion, she appeared right in front of Narcissa and struck out with her palm. The attack looked effortless, yet the palm wind contained tremendous spiritual energy.Narcissa didn't dare to take it head-on. She retreated hastily while her hands moved rapidly, sending out purple energy blades one after another.Blanche weaved through the barrage with ease. Each blade missed her by a breath. At the same time, she struck forward with another palm.This time, Narcissa couldn't dodge in time.

"No—"Rachel's scream was cut short before Narcissa raised her hand and flicked her wrist. A flash of purple light sliced through the air, and Rachel's hands were severed cleanly at the wrists. As blood sprayed across the floor, she let out one agonized cry before losing consciousness.Muffled gasps and stifled sobs filled the hall, but no one dared cry aloud. They were terrified of being the next victim."Take her away." Narcissa waved her hand dismissively, as if shooing off a fly.Two trembling Weston family maids shuffled forward and dragged Rachel's limp body out, leaving a bright trail of blood behind"Anyone else want to challenge me?" Narcissa asked, her piercing gaze sweeping across the room.Everyone lowered their heads. Not a single person dared to meet her eyes.Kael still wasn't satisfied. He walked toward a young woman kneeling on the floor.She was Oswald's granddaughter, Marilyn Weston, a college freshman home for summer break to help with the family busines

"The Moseys' situation is unclear right now. You need to be careful too," Natasha said, sounding concerned for once. "Losing a rival like you would make life pretty boring."Dahlia seemed to laugh on the other end. "Don't worry. I'm not going to die before you do."Natasha snorted before hanging up.Dustin couldn't help asking, "What did she say?" "She said Anders is behind it and warned me to watch out. Things at the Moseys have become dangerous," Natasha replied, putting her phone away. "She said there are unknown factions involved now, and even she can't do anything about it."Dustin frowned. "Anders… I remember him. He's an ambitious guy. But if even Dahlia finds these factions troublesome, they're no joke.""Yeah. She said it might be connected to those 'special figures' who showed up in Oakvale recently," she said, looking out the car window. "Could the people you encountered in the park before be…""It's possible," Dustin responded with a nod. "The methods those two used

"Don't worry," Natasha said with a smile. "I've been keeping a low profile lately, and hardly make any public appearances. I've already assigned people to handle company matters." "Glad to hear that," Dustin responded with a nod.After Blanche left, his life returned to its usual calm. Natasha started visiting the villa even more often. She no longer carried the constant rush of business affairs as she used to. Instead, she deliberately made time to savor simple moments with Dustin.It was the weekend, and she arrived early in the morning, carrying several bags."It's such a beautiful day. Let's go on a picnic," she said with a bright smile, her eyes sparkling with anticipation. "I had the chef prepare a lunchbox, along with some fruit and pastries."Dustin looked out at the bright sunshine filling the courtyard and nodded."Sounds good. Where to?" he asked."I know a place not far from here," she replied. "There's a meadow with a gorgeous lake view."They drove out of the c

The woman glanced at Snowy, and the fox immediately strutted over and affectionately rubbed against her hand. A trace of warmth flickered in her eyes, but it vanished as quickly as it appeared, replaced by her usual cool composure."Thank you," she said. "Once I've recovered, I'll leave and won't trouble you anymore.""No worry," Dustin replied. "Just focus on your recovery. By the way, may I know your name?"She was silent for a moment before answering softly, "Blanche Frost."Over the next few days, Blanche stayed at the villa to recover. She spoke very little and spent most of her time meditating to restore her strength. Occasionally, she would stand by the window, gazing toward the distant mountains, lost in thought.Dustin soon noticed something unusual. Her recovery speed was astonishing. Injuries that would have left an ordinary person bedridden for months had healed to the point of near recovery in just a few days.One afternoon, he was trimming plants in the courtyard wh
