Chapter 1513 – The Onlookers’ Realization
*****Witnessing all these strange scenes, the courtyard fell into another suffocating silence, and this time, it was as though time itself had frozen.No one spoke, moved, blinked, or reacted even in the slightest bit.Everyone just stared at Lucius's motionless body as though they were witnessing something impossible.After what felt like an eternity, a servant finally found her voice.“Is he...” she whispered, her voice trembling so badly it sounded broken. “Has he... died?”The question was barely louder than a breath, yet within the overwhelming stillness blanketing the courtyard, it echoed clearly into everyone's ears.Instantly, the crowd jolted and shivered all over, and then, following this, several people finally returned to their senses.A guard stared at Lucius for several seconds before swallowing hard.“He... he is really dead,” he muttered, his voice shaking.The statement struck the crowd like a thunderbolt, and instantly, many people's expressions changed dramatically
Chapter 1512 – Lucius’s Karma
*****For a moment that felt like an eternity, Lucius’s breathing stopped, his mind going utterly blank.But then, from the corners of his eyes, he saw Hunter slowly clench his fists.‘This…’Lucius shuddered violently, and in the following second, panic consumed him completely.“You... you...” he stuttered like a broken record, his voice hoarse and brimming with terror. “What... what do you want to do?”Hunter, however, didn’t react to Lucius’s desperate question immediately.Instead, he just stood there in silence, his gaze fixed on Lucius's face as though he were studying every tiny change in expression.He watched the overwhelming terror, despair, and dawning realization swimming inside the man's eyes.Lucius's face had become deathly pale, his pupils trembling violently, and his entire body shook as though he had already stepped into a nightmare from which there was no escape.Then, slowly, a smirk, the kind that belongs to someone who had finally reached the end of a very long r
Chapter 1511 – ‘This Is Bad!’
*****Bang!!!!Lucius slammed into the ground with a deafening crash, the impact sounding as though a massive sack of cement had been hurled from the top of a skyscraper.Immediately afterward...Crack!Craack!!Craaaack!!!The unmistakable sound of bones splintering echoed across the courtyard, accompanied by agonizing screams so shrill and tortured that they sent chills racing down everyone's spine.Witnessing all this, the spectators swallowed hard.Several servants turned deathly pale on the spot, a few workers instinctively stumbled backward, and even some of the fighters, who had witnessed their fair share of brutality, felt their scalps tingle.The scene was simply too miserable.As for Lucius, he shrieked miserably while thrashing across the ground like a fish thrown onto dry land.His body twisted uncontrollably, looking so pitiful, so broken, and so utterly wretched that nobody could associate him with the arrogant young master who had lorded over the estate in the past.Blo
Chapter 1510 – “You Can Die Now”
*****For a fleeting moment after Lucius finished speaking, several people even questioned their own memories… that was how absurdly convincing Lucius was.Unfortunately for him, everyone present already knew exactly what had happened back then.Information traveled through the estate faster than wildfire through dry grass.Everyone in the estate already knew that when Lucius discovered Hunter’s wife in his father's chamber, he had not been outraged or disgusted.He certainly had not fought for justice.If anything, he had practically celebrated and had even eagerly suggested joining in himself.The memory alone nearly made several guards roll their eyes.The only truthful parts of his dramatic confession were that Augustus had indeed slept with Hunter's wife first and that Augustus had later suggested hunting Hunter down.Everything else was so fabricated that it would have embarrassed a professional storyteller.Yet somehow, Lucius delivered those lies with such heartfelt conviction
Chapter 1509 – Lucius’s Desperation II
*****For a brief moment after Lucius spoke, it was as though time had stopped working in the courtyard.Several servants stared blankly, some guards almost choked, and even Hunter's brows rose slightly.Meanwhile, Lucius acted as though betraying his father in front of hundreds of people was the most natural thing in the world.“You… you remember that day we left Sky Group?” he hurriedly asked. “The day you went to handle that Xavier fellow for me?”His eyes remained fixed desperately on Hunter.However, Hunter neither answered nor showed any visible reaction.The silence nearly drove Lucius insane. Still, he clenched his fists and forced himself to continue.“I returned to the estate afterward to rest,” he said hurriedly. “And... and when I arrived, I saw your wife... I... I saw your wife inside Father's room.”The crowd immediately stiffened.Lucius, meanwhile, swallowed hard. Then he pushed forward.“They were together.” His voice cracked with apparent anguish. “They had betrayed
Chapter 1508 – Lucius’s Desperation
*****Lucius did not even entertain the thought of fighting back at all. The very idea felt laughable.No, it felt suicidal.After everything he had witnessed, he understood his situation better than anyone else present.His father, an E-rank fighter whom he had practically worshipped for days after the breakthrough, had just been beaten into a miserable heap on the ground.The man had entered the fight radiating confidence and authority, only to leave it looking as though he had volunteered to test whether concrete was softer than his face.What chance did he, who had never truly trained a day in his life, have? His cultivation was nothing more than a shortcut handed to him on a silver platter.The F-rank aura he possessed hadn't been earned through his own efforts.He had obtained it by consuming a pill that the Ravencrests had rewarded him with after he and his father informed them about the Harrisons handing the entire Project Echelon over to Grace.Compared to Hunter, who had cla

Very good plot and story and the pacing is also quite good except for elongated methapor words and praises that seems no relevance on the scene or plot being played, making the novel quite dull...
