The next day, Rex came to campus with a limp in his right leg. He used a crutch to help him walk. His condition made him the center of attention again.People must have thought he had bad luck because he once was poisoned and today he was beaten badly by someone else.When Rex was walking toward his department class, someone suddenly nudged him and knocked him off balance. He also fell to the ground because his crutch could not hold his body.“Oops, I’m sorry! I was in a rush and accidentally bumped into you,” the person said with a fake regretful expression.At the same time, a woman in a black short sleeves dress came to help Rex. The people around them immediately turned their heads because the girl was Dionne, aka the most beautiful girl on campus.“Are you all right?” Dionne asked, after making sure Rex could stand.Rex gave a nod. “I’m fine. Thanks for helping me.”Dionne told that Rex had nothing to thank her for, and she turned her attention to Gaspard, the person who made Rex
In the afternoon, the hitman that Trevor hired came to his house. The hitman did not work for any gang. Even so, the hitman’s name remained popular because he had succeeded in killing a celebrity who had a dark secret from a large company.Vigen, the hitman, had a tall body with a handsome face. His face made his female targets let their guard down. Because of that, he mostly received requests to kill a woman.However, he received a request to kill a young man from Struthia University. Vigen had read the information on the person he was going to kill. The young man was just a smart student who had been a victim of bullying in high school.Vigen wondered why Trevor asked him to kill Rex Hart. Therefore, he came first to Trevor’s house to confirm that. Right now, they were in the living room with no servants or bodyguards there.“I know why you came to my house. You must be curious because I didn’t tell you why I wanted to kill our target,” Trevor immediately spoke, preventing Vigen fro
Vigen fell to the ground from the hit. He immediately looked back to find that Rex was attacking him with a crutch. Nervous sweat dripped from his forehead when he realized things were not going the way he wanted.“A-are you not Mr. Trevor’s illegitimate son?” Vigen asked, his voice filled with the nervousness and anger that comes after realizing Trevor had tricked him.Meanwhile, Rex did not say anything as he smacked his crutch into Vigen’s hand. His attack knocked the gun out of the hitman’s hands. After that, he pointed to the tip of his crutch to hit Vigen’s crotch.The hitman screamed in pain with tears streaming down his cheeks. He screamed again when Rex’s crutch hit his body. He could not move because the damage received by his crotch was so severe.“S-stop it! I’m begging you! I don’t know who you are because Trevor tricked me. We were both harmed by him!”Unfortunately, Rex ignored those words and continued to beat Vigen with his crutch. He did that for half an hour until t
The rich used to come to X Secret Club to have fun. For this reason, they preferred to listen to gossip rather than talk about business. They had a hard time taking care of business every day, so they did not want to talk about it at their leisure.They were always open to anyone who could offer hot gossip. Some of them even dared to pay a certain amount of money if someone divulged the secrets of a big company.However, Julio and Sebastian did not receive the money. They naturally joined the circle of rich people and gossiped about Rex. Many were attracted by the story so people gathered on the golf course.“I guarantee he is the real Rex Quillon. You can prove it yourself if you don’t believe me. I said about him because I have a grudge against him,” said Julio when ending his story about Rex.Everyone fell silent, thinking about if they should believe Julio’s words. They had never been to the young man before. However, some of them knew he was from the Maxwell family, which was qui
Rumors spread by Julio and Sebastian had reached Rex’s ears. Last night, Carlton came to his room to talk about it. His father also gave him a dagger while warning him that he would face more hitmen. Carlton looked very serious and worried at the time, so Rex had no choice but to comply. This morning he went to the campus while looking at the dagger in the car. He did not think his father would give him the weapon if the situation was not serious.“Mr. Carlton has also been in your position when he was young,” Molly who was driving broke the silence in the car. She was the one responsible for pretending to be a taxi driver today. Meanwhile, Rex immediately put the dagger in his bag. He could not carry the weapon in his pocket because something bad would happen if someone found out about it.“Dad looks more worried than usual. Looks like I’m going to be facing a lot of assassins after all. Are they on a different level than me?” Rex glanced briefly at the woman beside him.Molly did
Morris decided to speed up his car and make Gaspard unable to follow him anymore. However, the other followers could still keep up with his speed. It seemed they were well-trained hitmen.“Are you going to attack them alone?” asked Morris, a little worried because his young master always took such bold steps. “I believe there were two or three hitmen in the car.”Rex chuckled, knowing what was on his uncle’s mind. If he was going to face ordinary people, then he could insist on fighting them alone. But the problem was that he would fight some great hitmen this time.They were not the same as Vigen, a hitman hired by Trevor to test the Quillon family’s security system. Other rich people would send great hitmen after receiving information from Julio.He must have told them about Trevor hiring a hitman and failing because the Quillon family’s bodyguards were so strong. Those people would not waste their money hiring some amateur hitmen. Because of that, Rex had to face a formidable oppon
Rex held his breath just as Edson pulled the trigger. He used a lightning technique and jumped into the air to dodge the bullet. After that, he briefly landed his feet on the wall before flying back into the air.Bullets continued to be shot by Edson, and he could avoid them well. The people who were fighting Morris lost their focus because of seeing Rex’s action. The young man looked like he was dancing while dodging the shots.Meanwhile, Edson bit his lip because his shot never hit the target. He cursed Rex in his heart because it turned out that the young man had already learned cultivation. His jealousy grew when he saw Rex land on the floor with no injuries.“Is this all you can do?” Rex, as he usually did, was always mocking his opponents. If Edson was successfully provoked, then his opponent would prioritize emotion over calm.Attacks caused by anger never end well. And that was what Edson was doing now. He kept shooting at Rex, no matter where the gun was pointed. He did not e
The atmosphere in X Secret Club was not good. Carter had been trying hard to hire the hitmen, who were suddenly hard to contact. He was sure the enemies of the Quillon family had hired many hitmen, which caused him too hard to get a hitman. Nonetheless, Carter and the others could still get their hands on fifteen hitmen because of their connections. Unfortunately, the hitmen had not reported to them since five hours ago.“The last time Edson contacted me was to say that he would attack our target soon. However, he never contacted me again after that. Even his phone number is also off,” Fred said while looking at his cell phone screen.The man had been on the Quillon family’s side for a long time. However, he must disguise himself as an enemy to spy on the real enemies of the Quillon family. No one ever suspected him until now because he acted like he hated Carlton and Rex.“Does that mean they lost?” Carter asked while biting his thumb. “If that’s the case, then the Quillon family’s
Five years ago, Chelsea escaped from Infinity because she did not want to be a spy anymore. She was fed up with missions that always put her life on the line. While everyone was preparing for war, she secretly ran away to a place she thought no one would reach. Tigris Island was Chelsea's destination at the time. Since the island was filled with evil energy sources and poisonous plants, humans rarely came here. Chelsea would stay on Tigris Island until everyone forgot about her existence. Unfortunately, her plan did not go smoothly due to the arrival of other people. "Huh? Who are they? Why did they come here?" Just then, Coup de Grace troops came to the island. Chelsea had no idea who they were until she saw Nolan carrying Dionne and Selena. "Isn't that Rex's girlfriend?" Chelsea wrinkled her forehead. She was hiding behind a rock at the moment. "Damn it. I came to the wrong place. But I can't run away now because they will realize my existence." Chelsea had hidden her aura earl
On the other side, Nolan still had some energy left despite the massive damage to his chest. He watched Iordan's death with an angry face. If Iordan died, then so would he. Nolan did not want to die like this. With his left power, he could launch the ultimate attack on Rex. But before Nolan could do that, Molly suddenly ran towards him and stabbed his body repeatedly while laughing."Auntie...?" Rex's voice reached Molly's ear, and she immediately stopped stabbing Nolan. Suddenly, memories began to flash across her head. It was the memories of Rex calling her "aunty." She remembered how cheerful she and the Quillon family were when Rex could talk. Little Rex called her with a sweet smile, warming her heart. At that moment, Molly thought, 'I will protect this child whatever it takes'. She devoted her life to caring for Rex and wanted him to live a happy life. For this reason, she was willing to sacrifice Dionne because she thought Rex would be more ambitious. Her thoughts returned
Nolan's body shuddered as he retained the memory of Arthur attacking him with the Hellfire Blade Technique. He remembered exactly how Arthur had beaten him back using that technique. Back then, he still had incredible endurance. But his body was different now after rising from the dead. He was indeed relatively stronger than the average top-level cultivator. Still, Nolan was not as strong as he used to be. He was a little worried, but he was sure Rex was less strong than Arthur. Besides, he also held a secret that would make Rex focus distracted. "The girl you love is probably dead by a shark. It's not my fault because Molly is in charge! A few days ago, she came to one of my sect's bases and told my people Dionne's location." Rex lost his focus because he heard something surprising. Of course, he refused to believe Molly was the mastermind behind Dionne's kidnapping. Molly had been with him since childhood, so the faith between them was firmly established. What made Rex doubt wa
Edmund and Lennart looked at Erick in despair. They did not know what to do to save their master. Since they faced a dragon spirit, they became pessimistic. "I don't think I can finish this," Lennart said, hanging his head in shame. "The divine energy I'm directing keeps getting eaten up by that dragon spirit."Morris looked away from Erick. Before going to Floria, he had opposed Erick's plan to use Inferno Dragon's Breath. The dragon spirit could not be dealt with by anyone in Histrio due to its rare existence. However, Erick still insisted on using the forbidden technique because the undead army could only be defeated with it. In other words, Erick already knew the risks of using Inferno Dragon's Breath. He was ready to die. He had no regrets if he had to die today. "Y-you can stop," Erick stammered. He sounded agonized to even utter a single word. Edmund shook his head. "I won't stop, Master!"Erick smiled faintly. His gaze began to blur. He was painful that he had to leave th
Floria had received an attack from Coup de Grace minutes after Nolan arrived at the presidential palace. The associations and affiliates on guard there immediately restrained the enemies from going to other cities. Armies in other cities did not report any attacks from Coup de Grace. That meant Coup de Grace entered Histrio through Floria because Jaylen helped Nolan. The other cities had been guarded by security forces, making infiltration difficult. For this reason, Coup de Grace would destroy Floria first before attacking other cities. The security forces' mentality would be disturbed if they saw their colleagues die. That was Coup de Grace's goal in targeting Floria. This demonic sect brought powerful fighters with an army of undead. "Everyone, watch out for the undead!" Sander shouted as he fired at the undead, still moving even after being shot. "We don't know how to defeat them. So be careful until we find a way!" Dante did not report on how to defeat Nolan's undead army be
Rex faced the fighters from Coup de Grace while thinking about Dante's report. The report was sent regularly to the NSS when Dante was not yet suspected by Nolan. The report explained that Nolan's followers did not learn necromancy techniques. Nolan taught them Demonic Blood Cultivation. Cultivators had to use the evil energy in their blood to use this cultivation technique. They would go through meditation and particular movements to channel the evil energy. Once successful, they would gain extraordinary strength. Their attacks were deadly, their movements were agile, and their endurance was incredible. "Are you Rex Quillon?" a Coup de Grace member asked as he blocked Rex's attack. "My name is Caius. You should know the name of the person who will kill you."Rex kicked Caius, sending his enemy flying five meters away. Yet, Caius could still stand tall as if nothing had happened. "Are you Arthur's son? You're weaker than expected," Caius smiled mockingly. Rex responded to the ins
Some of the leaders in Infinity looked down in fear as Rex walked up to them. They were Mikael, Jon, Steen, and Viggo. Before working under the Quillon family, they had full control over their business. But everything changed after the Quillon family took over their organization. They no longer had full power and had to get Bertel's permission before making any decisions. Meanwhile, Bertel needed permission from Rex or Elder Han. They were irritated with the system in Infinity but could do nothing about it. That's why they were so happy when they discovered the Quillon family's weakness. Unlucky for them, Rex tricked them."P-Please forgive us!" Steen was the first to admit his mistake. He knelt to Rex, followed by the others. "We are regretful of betraying you. But we're different from Susanne, so forgive us!" Rex kept the spear on his shoulder and looked at Steen with raised eyebrows. "What makes you different from Susanne?""We've never had any contact with Nolan or the Coup de
The message Cole sent made the veins of anger stand out on Rex's forehead and neck. His reaction after reading the message made the others curious. "What's wrong?" asked Edmund, feeling uneasy. Rex returned the phone to Molly. "I don't have time to explain. Master Erick, please come with me. Then, the seven of you should go to see the leaders. Tell them to read Sir Cole's message." "I'll go, Young Master," Molly gestured for six people to accompany her. The others were still curious because Rex had also left them. But they could not do anything because they had to look after Floria. No one knew when Coup de Grace would attack. Meanwhile, Carlton and Elder Han had arrived at the pavilion as they were on guard. Rex and Erick came a short while later. "Nolan deliberately didn't attack because he had a hostage," Carlton said, clenching his fists. "He wanted to get the Silverstar clan out of the affiliation before attacking us." Rex said nothing, but he agreed with his father. No won
Meanwhile, Nolan stared at Cole while evading attacks coming from all sides. Although he was in a difficult situation, he did not look panicked or nervous. Cole looked back at Nolan with a stiff body. The memory of his daughter's death suddenly flashed. He recognized Nolan because the association deployed his face in the previous war. The anger Cole had been holding back for a long time finally rose to the surface. He could not control his emotions anymore. All his life, he had always hoped to meet Nolan and kill him. "You cursed human!"Cole ran towards Nolan while firing bullets. But Nolan avoided the shots easily while he still had to deal with another attack from the others. "I thought you'd be a little stronger after what I did to your family," Nolan taunted, jumping up and landing on a guard, crushing his head. He kicked while rotating, so his kick directly hit five people. The heads of the five instantly separated from their bodies. The others stared at him in shock. They
