*****

“Is something the matter?” Laura, whose mind was still in turmoil from all that had happened and the second near-death encounter she had had in just two days, suddenly blurted, gazing at Xavier, who had come to an abrupt stop, staring intently in a specific direction.

“I…” Xavier blinked, startled back to his senses by his mother’s voice. He then shook his head in response to her question before his brows furrowed again, subconsciously glancing back at the departing black vehicle.

  • Chapter 1419 - “A Family Like Yours Doesn't Deserve To Exist Anymore”

    *****Meanwhile, Xavier, still exactly where he had been from the start, watched as the corpse puppets drew closer to him one step after another.Yet throughout the entire process, his expression remained calm, as though the murderous beings rushing toward him weren't a threat at all.He just observed them for a few moments, then just as the puppets were on the verge of reaching him, Xavier finally moved.He didn’t dodge or attack.Instead, he slowly turned his head, his gaze settling upon the patriarch standing behind the advancing corpse puppets.The old man currently wore an eerie, dark smile filled with certainty and that of someone who believed everything had fallen back under his control.Then Xavier spoke.“Do you know...” he began lazily, his sudden voice startling everyone.“I wasn't lying earlier when I said I was already planning to look for you myself and put you in your place,” he continued casually.The patriarch's smile instantly turned sarcastic.“Oh?”He responded cal

  • Chapter 1418 - “Why Do I Feel Like He Isn't About to Be Taken Down?”

    *****Despite all the two brothers’ initial expectations, Xavier remained exactly as he had been from the very beginning.His posture hadn't changed.His hands remained casually buried inside his pockets, his shoulders remained relaxed, his breathing remained steady, and his expression remained indifferent.It was almost as though the terrifying scene unfolding before him had absolutely nothing to do with him. As though he were merely a passerby observing someone else's problem.The only difference was a faint trace of coldness hidden within his eyes as he watched the corpse puppets approach.And even that was subtle enough that one had to stare carefully to notice it.It was...“Why do I feel like he isn't about to be taken down?” The Third Brother suddenly muttered, the words escaping before he could stop them.The moment he spoke, however, Borgia rolled his eyes, a smirk appearing on his face.“Still stuck in denial, I see,” he mocked, his voice dripping with sarcasm and amusement.

  • Chapter 1417 - The Two Brothers’ Disbelief

    *****At this moment, an overwhelming murderous aura blanketed the entire street, suffocating the surroundings so thoroughly that even breathing seemed difficult.A strange pressure pressed down on everyone's shoulders, making their hearts pound violently against their ribs.Nobody dared speak too loudly or move carelessly. Even the sounds of the distant city seemed to have vanished.If anything, the entire gathering of onlookers could only watch as the corpse puppets surged toward Xavier.Unlike the mercenaries and private soldiers from earlier, these machines in human form wasted absolutely no time.There was no hesitation, testing, or caution. Instead, the instant the order was given, they moved.Their speed was terrifying, their coordination flawless, and their murderous intent so dense that it made one's scalp tingle.Watching them in full motion, the hearts of the remaining private soldiers and mercenaries nearly climbed into their throats.‘So... so scary...’Some swallowed har

  • Chapter 1416 – “I’m Going To Kill You Now”

    *****The third brother rolled his eyes so dramatically that several people almost forgot the terrifying situation they were currently in.Meanwhile, standing beside him, Borgia was undoubtedly the most pleased by the second turn of events, but even then, he couldn't help staring helplessly at his father.The old man had regained the commanding presence he had always carried.Even without speaking or displaying the slightest emotion, his cold aura and eerie demeanor naturally spread through the surroundings, making the atmosphere heavier.Yet despite all that, neither Borgia nor the Third Brother could view him the same way as before.The image of the dignified patriarch had already been shattered in their minds.Whenever they looked at him now, they couldn't help recalling the man who had lowered his head before another… the man who had knelt like a servant before his master without daring to raise his gaze.The contrast was simply too absurd, and as a result, Borgia couldn't feel ev

  • Chapter 1415 – The Patriarch’s Disbelieving Utterance

    *****For a moment that felt like an eternity, not a single person uttered even the slightest sound.They simply stood there, staring at Xavier as though their minds had completely stopped functioning.Then suddenly…“Huff!” A faint sigh drifted through the air.It wasn't loud or dramatic, yet the instant it sounded, every single person in the street was badly startled, their hearts skipping a beat in their chests.Then, as though controlled by a single invisible hand, every head turned toward the source.It was the Revercrest Patriarch.At this moment, the elderly man remained where he had been from the start, his posture relaxed, and his expression tranquil.There wasn't even the slightest hint of surprise on his face.In fact, looking at him now, one would think he was merely watching children play in a courtyard… as though he were staring at a completely natural scene.His eyes, peaceful, calm, and unreadable, remained fixed on Xavier.It was the gaze of someone who had already pi

  • Chapter 1414 – A Second Turn of Event

    *****The blade in the second soldier’s hand flashed through the air like a bolt of silver lightning, slicing toward Xavier's neck with such frightening velocity that nearly everyone present failed to follow the attack properly.Seeing this, several mercenaries quietly sighed, believing that the battle was over and that there was nothing left to watch.At the same time, Borgia's thoughts spiraled wildly.‘What was I thinking accepting this stupid bet?’ The question hammered relentlessly inside his mind. ‘Why did I wager something like that?’The more he thought about it, the more he wanted to smash his own head against a wall.His heart twisted painfully.‘If only...’ His eyes gradually reddened. ‘If only I could turn back time, I never would have accepted it.’Thinking this, every trace of strength seemed to leave his body, regret flooding him completely.Beside him, however, the Third Brother was experiencing the exact opposite.His excitement had reached such absurd levels that it
