In the expansive estate of the Crimson Jade family, amidst its myriad of opulent buildings, there was a particular spot that was exclusively associated with Mato, the family's eldest son.

"Have you recognized your error?" Mato inquired, to which the man responded in a weak, raspy voice.

Displaying a domineering attitude, Mato perched arrogantly atop a man whose spirit had been thoroughly crushed, relegating him to nothing more than a human stool for the entirety of the day. The man's complexion had turned ashen, his gaze vacant, and his physique slumped in defeat under Mato's relentless dominance.

"Hey, are you even listening to me anymore?" Mato prodded, but the man remained silent, evidently too worn out to muster the energy to part his lips.

"You're worthless," Mato spat out disdainfully, his tone icy and piercing, slicing through the room's stillness. The man under him struggled to breathe, each exhalation an ordeal.

Eventually, utterly drained of vitality, the man collapsed onto

    Lucas had long harbored a desire to explore the White Swan Pavilion but found himself inexplicably barred from entry, the reasons for which remained a mystery to him. On this occasion, Lucas found himself in close proximity to the pavilion.The air that morning was rich with the enticing aroma of flowers, complementing the bustling sounds of the nearby streets. The pavilion itself stood out due to its grandeur and size, dwarfing even the residence of the head of the Stormwind family, a prominent household in Jade Valley city.Upon arriving at the entrance, Lucas, with a sense of nostalgia, whispered, "Ah, it's good to see them again," to the two women stationed there. These same women had previously denied him entry, though Lucas was still unaware of the reasons behind their actions. Their hesitation now was palpable.Lucas's reputation had since evolved; rumors circulated that he had slain the leader of the Ironfist clan and had recently compelled the head of the Shadowblade family to

    While Lucas was still deep in thought about the half-coin Aranea had brought him, he was startled by the pavilion master's words."Lucas," she said, her voice almost a whisper, "the other half of the coin you seek is in the possession of the Ironfist Family."Lucas's eyebrow arched in surprise at her revelation. He wondered if this woman was alluding to his earlier admission concerning the Ironfist family's ties to another distinguished family."What do you mean?" Lucas inquired, his gaze probing for more information."I once saw a similar half-coin. The eldest son of the Ironfist family brought it here to flaunt before the courtesans," she explained."Do you mean Lorrick?" Lucas asked, mentioning the man he had slain first. The pavilion master nodded in confirmation.This was an unexpected development for Lucas. He had been seeking information about the "God of Mist" and its relevance to him. The piece of the coin that Aranea had retrieved appeared to hold some clues to this mystery.

    Amidst the stillness of the night, punctuated only by the hissing of the wind and the occasional distant song of night insects, a hitman lurked in the shadows cast by the ancient walls surrounding the Stromwind family's home. His sharp eyes, accustomed to the dark, patiently scanned the area, focusing on Lucas, who appeared relaxed, lying on his wife's thigh in a cozy, flower-adorned corner of the backyard.The hitman scrutinized Lucas, as if verifying the rumors about him. At first glance, Lucas seemed to lack inner strength, eliciting a sardonic smirk from the observer."Weak, the Stromwind family's son-in-law is weak," he whispered softly to himself."Are all the recent rumors merely baseless?" the thought emerged in the hitman's mind as he remained concealed.The idea of ending Lucas' life right there, at his most vulnerable, consumed him. Envy flared within the assassin's heart, coveting the peace and love Lucas seemed to share with his wife."Damn it! Why does a weakling like hi

    Amidst the silence, broken only by the sounds of nature, an epic event unfolded far from the world's gaze. The early morning's gray sky bore witness to a dramatic confrontation that would be forever remembered in the saga of Lucas and Mato."Mato, I'm truly sorry," stammered Mato, his voice echoing a mix of desperation and regret. Despite his numerous attempts and the deployment of various artifacts, none had proved effective against Lucas. Now, cornered and desperate, Mato faced Lucas, who was fueled by a resolve as unwavering as steel.Lucas, with eyes sharp as daggers and a heart hardened by betrayal, focused intently on Mato—the man who had dared to threaten his family. In a blur of motion, Lucas seized Mato by the neck with a grip of iron, embodying the very essence of unyielding strength."Mato's attempts to plead were choked out, "Lucas... Lucas... aghh," as he struggled in vain.Despite Mato's frantic kicks and pleas for mercy, Lucas' hold remained as steadfast as if it were c

As he neared the doorway, Aline greeted him at the threshold, her eyes shimmering with anticipation, as though she had sensed his arrival before he even reached her.Their connection seemed to transcend the ordinary, marked by a silent understanding that only deepened their bond. Aline, with a swift and deliberate motion, reached out for Lucas, her embrace firm and inviting. Lucas, in turn, wrapped his arms around her with an intensity that spoke volumes of his feelings. The reunion was passionate, their kiss a testament to the enduring connection that time and distance had failed to diminish.In a moment of vulnerability, Aline's voice, soft yet tinged with emotion, broke the silence.

    Lucas opened his eyes to the shy morning light filtering through the gap in the curtains, which illuminated his face, now freed from the grip of sleep. Beside him, Aline remained deeply immersed in her dreams, her steady breathing signaling profound peace. At that moment, Lucas was struck by a powerful sense of déjà vu, an acute awareness that he had been transported back in time to five days earlier, a serene period before the world teetered on the brink of apocalypse due to the catastrophic assault by the Heavenly Demon and its legion of over a thousand Heavenly Puppets."Turns out he really can send me back in time," Lucas whispered softly, awestruck by the realization that his mysterious benefactor had indeed granted him the ability to traverse the fabric of time.What had unfolded five days later bore the weight of a nightmarish reality, as the Heavenly Demon, wielding its formidable Heavenly Puppets—each possessing the formidable power of a Domain Master—launched a merciless att

    In the midst of a sudden and eerie silence, a series of wooden puppets appeared, moving with an elegance that belied their deadly nature. One after another, they emerged from beneath the ground, each figure distinct in appearance and aura. However, among them, one puppet in particular captured Lucas's attention.Lucas's eyes flickered with a mix of emotions at the sight, hinting at a deep, nostalgic sensation. This wooden puppet stood out from the "Heavenly Puppet" Lucas had previously vanquished. It bore an uncanny resemblance to someone he knew: with white hair flowing gracefully, reminiscent of a waterfall illuminated by the full moon, it exuded an aura that was both familiar and haunting. It was Arane, or at least, a near-perfect replica of him."Heavenly Demon," Lucas uttered, breaking the silence. His voice carried a blend of admiration and hatred, reflecting the complex emotions stirred by the sight of the puppet.With a wide, proud smile, the Heavenly Demon raised his hand, co

    Amidst the eerie silence, seven shadowy figures approached Lucas, their steps synchronized and determined. Lucas appeared contemplative, devoid of any sense of triumph following the battle. Although he had vanquished the heavenly Demon, causing it to vanish, a sense of defeat lingered within him."What is a Soul Eater?" Lucas murmured, his voice barely above a whisper, as if acknowledging a newfound presence within him—an enigma even to himself.Arane, having overheard Lucas, displayed a deep concern."Lucas, what's troubling you?" she inquired gently."A Soul Eater is a forbidden technique," Arane explained, her complexion turning ashen upon realizing Lucas had been struck by this sinister attack.Taking a deep breath, Lucas surveyed the surroundings, which bore the scars of their recent conflict, resembling a crater left by a meteor. Yet, the revelation of the Soul Eater technique weighed heavily on his mind."What does this technique do?" Lucas inquired.Among his seven followers,

    The sun hung low in the sky, casting long shadows on the parched ground. Lucas stood alone amidst the solitude, surrounded by his loyal followers. His eyes gazed at the horizon, taking in the sight of the toxic land that would soon become their new home.The place was vast, but devoid of any living creature except for the oddly glowing shrubs. The vegetation seemed alive yet strangely eerie.With a flick of his wrist, he summoned lightning, watching as it curved through the air before striking the peak of a distant mountain. The impact shook the earth beneath them, kicking up clouds of dust."That will do," he said, turning around to face his companions. Among them were seven beautiful women, each possessing extraordinary strength and power. They were all semi-goddess wives of Lucas.

    The sun had set several hours ago, and now the moon hung high in the sky, casting its pale light over the vast expanse of land belonging to the Crimson Jade clan. Inside their ancestral home, deep within one of the rooms of their youngest member, Coil, is where Lucas found himself, having been invited by Coil for a highly tempting offer. As they sit facing each other, Lucas didn't waste any time getting to the point. "Coil," he began softly, "I understand that your family's house holds many treasures. I'm curious - is there anything specific you seek?" It seemed like Lucas was ready to start his plan now. His goal clear, he wanted to revive the Heavenly Demon associated with the Crimson Jade clan and then kill it later on. Initially, Coil appeared surprised by Lucas' bold question. But after some time, he leaned back into his chair and took a deep breath. "Yes, there are indeed valuable items hidden behind these walls," he admitted. "However, I must stress that those things do not b

Lucas was in Coil's room.Lucas had a plan on his mind; his gaze seemed to see through everything around him. This young man clearly felt something there."Coil," said Lucas and suddenly stopped mid-sentence. He became wary when he sensed an unpleasant presence lurking nearby."Coil," Lucas spoke seriously, "there is an impostor approaching us."Clearly startled, Coil didn't sense anything amiss. However, the youngest son of the Crimson Jade family immediately believed Lucas. Coil remembered how Lucas fought and defeated Night Swift beforehand. That was an epic battle that Coil himself doubted could have been achieved by any ordinary human being."Lucas, can you defeat them?" asked Coil nervously.Despite her arrogance, she wanted to know if Lucas would dare face off against them. If not, Coil already prepared to escape with their teleportation artifact."It will be easy," whispered Lucas.N

    The village sky was aglow with golden rays that morning, casting a serene light on the path where confident steps moved with purpose. In front of a quaint house, a man with shoulder-length white hair, which shimmered like spun silver in the sunlight, gently knocked on the door. His appearance, marked by the ethereal glow of his hair, endowed him with an aura of mystery.Inside, the sound of footsteps grew closer until the door swung open, revealing a puzzled Aline. Her face, marked by confusion yet strikingly beautiful, mirrored the surprise and curiosity at the sight before her. Her eyes, wide and inquisitive, scanned the figure on her doorstep."Who are you, and what brings you here?" Aline inquired, her voice laced with caution yet striving for politeness.In this unexpected moment, Aline's surprise was natural; she did not recognize Lucas, who stood before her, his presence in her timeline unforeseen. Yet, there was a slight smile on Lucas's face, a hint of warmth in his demeanor

    Lightning thundered across the sky, illuminating Moncik's face with blinding white light. Around him, the earth trembled and burst open, with flames engulfing Tikus Biru, his subordinate, who desperately tried to evade the onslaught."Argh!" Blue Rat screamed, his body aflame. Nearby, White Rat, the female assassin, faced similar agony.This scene was a one-sided massacre, making Lucas's claim of godhood seem justified. The display of Lucas's power was truly fearsome.Moncik dodged frantically, as if his life depended on it, trying to escape the lightning that Lucas seemed to command at will."Ah, Hell Rat, Hell Rat assassins, you really are like rats. Why don't you just scurry back into your holes?" Lucas taunted.This spectacle gave Lucas a perverse thrill, realizing how easily he could manipulate the villains who had once caused him so much trouble.It was akin to a dragon toying with a group of slow-moving rabbits; their survival hinged solely on Lucas's mercy to not end their liv

    Lucas stepped into the White Swan Pavilion with a confident stride, determined to resolve the lingering threats that loomed over them. His urgency stemmed from a stark realization: the world had teetered on the brink of destruction twice before, and Lucas, having failed to protect it on both occasions, was adamant about preventing a third catastrophe.As Lucas surveyed his surroundings, his heightened consciousness allowed him to perceive beyond the ordinary; he could even see through walls, searching for his quarry. In a private room, he found Lorrick of the Ironfist family, indulging in luxury, surrounded by opulent beverages and entertainers. Lucas paused momentarily outside, observing Lorrick with a faint smile."Lorrick, you will face your end once more," Lucas murmured softly, his movement swift and silent as the breeze. His mastery in cultivation had elevated him beyond mortal confines, enabling him to effortlessly approach the private room's entrance.Without a moment's delay,

He had just been forcibly ejected, the loud bang of Luna's gate closing behind him still echoing in his ears, a consequence of last night's debacle.This felt like déjà vu, yet Lucas was acutely aware that he had successfully re-entered the flow of time, seizing the opportunity to start anew.Suddenly, Lucas's expression shifted from calm to one of realization as he noticed a profound change within himself. His normally jet-black hair had transformed, now turning white with the tips glowing a faint gray—a clear indication that he had achieved something remarkable: he had traveled back in time."I'm back..." he whispered to himself, his gaze fixed on the gate that had just spurned him.Determined, Lucas approached and knocked on the gate gently yet firmly.
