***** Although he was severely injured, Master Liam wasn’t sad per se, instead, he was presently thrilled beyond words, as he had never anticipated that his impulsive action would result in such a significant reward. It wasn’t that master Liam intentionally wished to give his life away by sneaking his way into the lion’s den. No, he went because he was overwhelmed by intense curiosity. The reason for this curiosity was to understand why the Demon sect would suddenly withdraw just when they were so close to butchering him. That's correct. Master Liam truly believed he would lose his life this time when the Patriarch of the Demon sect, whose strength likely matched that of his own master, joined forces with his men to face him. He had even resolved to fight to the death, never expecting that just as the two sides were about to clash, the Demon sect would withdraw, glaring at him with ferocity and reluctance. Being no fool, Master Liam quickly deduced that something urgent must hav
*****Ava’s shout of fear filled the car and almost deafened the trio with her, then she became pale.“Do you bastard even know what an enormous place like Greenville estate entails?”“You useless entity! Not even the entire main family would be able to pay if we were caught trespassing!!!”Ava was really scared shitlessly this time around, dumbfounding Ares.He had always thought Ava was a courageous woman who had no fear for anyone and anything, but now… Ares finally smiled wryly after a while of hearing Ava’s yell.He was about to assure her when he felt a sudden hard tug on his chair. “Turn this fucking car around now you wretched bastard! I’ve made up my mind not to accept you!”Her voice was filled with certainty and gave way to no argument, showing that no matter what anyone told her, she wouldn’t listen again.As soon as Olivia heard this, her heart pounded hysterically in her chest and she quickly looked toward her father for help.What she saw instantly made the wor
***** This is the sort of wife he wanted. One that would freely show her emotion before him and not one that would only always exclude coldness whenever she sees him. Filled with love, Ares slowly raised his head to pat Olivia’s head, but then suddenly, he felt two icy-cold auras rushing at him from the back. One was normal while the other was laced with killing intent, causing Ares’s heart to immediately shake before he hurriedly took back his hand. “I was only trying to ignite the engine,” he looked back and explained with a nervous smile on his face, but neither Ava nor Smith responded, instead, they just glared at him, clearly indicating their disbelief in his explanation, prompting Ares to quickly start the engine after a moment of awkwardness. With that, he drove in silence, and a sense of calm settled over the car, causing him to unconsciously let out a sigh of relief. Meanwhile, the farther Ares drove into the estate, the more nervous Ava became, until she suddenly glanc
*****Ava couldn’t believe her eyes, so she frantically robbed them before looking at the elderly man standing before her again.“Ma… Master Robert?” She carefully called again, thinking she must have seen wrongly.Seeing her like this, however, Master Robert almost laughed as if it was funny, but knowing that the other party was his master’s mother-in-law, he dared not.“Good day ma’am,” he suddenly lowered his head so much that he was almost kowtowing.This instantly made Ava’s heart run toward her throat.She didn’t even know how she hurriedly rushed out of the car and helped the elderly man up. “You… you shouldn’t… you shouldn’t bow for me,” she swallowed nervously.“I… I don’t deserve it.” As soon as she stated this, she bowed toward Master Robert, almost scaring the elderly man to death.“I…” Master Robert didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. ‘If you don’t deserve my bow, please who else deserves it?’ he thought tearfully but dared not say it out, instead, he looked towa
*****“This…” Ares was badly shaken at this moment as he watched Smith kneel on the floor to him and address him as young master.‘What’s going on?’ He thought with a foggy mind, unable to react for a moment, but then he was startled away when he felt someone tightly holding his legs.“Young master! How could you have been beside me all these while and I’ve been blind! I’ve been waiting for you and Master all these years!”“I’ve waited and I was just about to give up, thinking you wouldn’t come again, but you’ve actually been beside me for more than a week now and I’ve been too blind to see you!”“I need to be persecuted for this!”“How could I have been so blind to see you?!”“How could I have watched you getting bullied by my wife all these weeks you’ve been beside me?!”The middle-aged man sobbed like a little kid, scaring Ares so badly that he was covered to the brim in goosebumps.He wanted to react and help the middle-aged man up, but he kept failing woefully as he was
*****Inside a small room that has two corpses which were already slightly inflated lying on the ground, a statue was presently standing and staring blankly at one of the corpses.This statue had already been standing there doing nothing for more than two hours and behind him, the two men who were knelt were already bloodlessly pale.These two men were the hacker and the driver, and the more time that passed without their master reacting, the higher and stronger their fear became.For this reason, the silent room had become incredibly tense beyond words.This deafening silence continued filling the room for a long time until what felt like forever before finally; “Rahhhhhhhh!!!!!”A roar that was filled to the brim with the sort of despair and anguish anyone had ever felt before in their lives filled the room.The hearts of the two men immediately banged heavily in their chests.It wasn’t only them, the hearts of the men who had been standing guards outside the room also bange
*****“Did you not want to destroy that entire town? That’s also our wish, why don’t you just let us work together to reach our respective aims?”The Vanguard sat emotionlessly and listened to the voice doing its best to convince him on the cell phone.The call had entered just after reaching their destination, Olivia’s estate.The Vanguard did not respond for a while before he snorted coldly. “Would I not become the enemy of my fellow Earthlings if I decided to work with you stupid aliens?” He inquired coldly.The person on the other side of the call was thrown off guard for a second upon hearing the Vanguard’s response to his words.Although he was immediately infuriated, he did his best to calm himself.“Don’t you think you’ve already become the enemy of what you don’t want to be?” The voice carefully inquired.The Vanguard’s eyes finally gained a bit of emotion which was pain as soon as he heard the words, a second later, the emotion in his eyes metamorphosed into anger.
***** "Can your sect assure me that it will help me with my revenge if I join hands with you?" the Vanguard suddenly inquired in a hoarse voice, his face displaying an emotion no one had ever seen. The Grand Elder remained silent upon hearing the question, causing a look of panic to cross the Vanguard's face. Just as the Vanguard thought the Grand Elder wouldn't be able to give him the promise he needed; the Grand Elder chuckled. "Since we are already against the same enemy, turning us into friends, my sect will naturally do its best to help you," he responded. The Vanguard instantly heaved a heavy sigh, looking as though he was making a difficult decision, he had never thought he'd have to make in his life. "I will join hands with you guys," he said with great difficulty after grinding his teeth together. "I will join hands with your sect to bring that bastard and this city down once and for all." "I already expected this," the Grand Elder mumbled to himself, but loud enough f
