Sovereign of Chaos Chapter 20: To Kill Noah
Feeling utterly helpless, Olivia looked around, tears blurring her vision. Her parents' faces were alight with poorly concealed smiles, while her brother, Victor, averted his gaze. For a moment, she felt abandoned by the world."Come, Uncle Robert, let me propose a toast with tea in place of wine," Noah said, filling his and Robert's cups to the brim. His face betrayed his smug satisfaction, for in his eyes, Olivia was as good as his."Pretending to be virtuous? Sooner or later, you'll be mine!" he thought, casting a dark glance towards the upper room.Noah's insatiable lust for women, coupled with his father Caleb's influence in Stone Town, had led to the ruination of countless innocent young girls. He had long coveted Olivia, and now that she was of age, he would not let her slip away."Young Master Noah is too kind. It's my daughter's fortune to be married to you," Robert said obsequiously, draining his cup in one gulp."In that case, Brother Robert, isn't it time to choose an ausp
Sovereign of Chaos Chapter 21: Hiding In Lily's Bathtub
"What are you waiting for? We must leave now, or it'll be too late! The town is only seven or eight miles away, a swift horse ride there and back would take no more than an hour!""Let's go!" Olivia urged.But where to? There were only one or two paths to the town, and Ethan had no horse. He feared he would be captured by the guards halfway there! Going towards the town at this moment was suicide! Should he head for the mountains? They were filled with wild beasts, and even monsters! Moreover, there were only a few paths down the mountain. Was he supposed to stay there until he grew old?His only option was to find a prominent family in town to hide from the storm.With a plan in mind, Ethan hesitated no more. Glancing at the crowd, he dashed towards Lily's house as if he were flying. In the blink of an eye, he vanished from sight."That speed..." A young man in the crowd stared in awe, "Ethan truly is a hidden gem! That speed might be comparable to a martial artist at the eighth leve
Sovereign of Chaos Chapter 22: Lock of True Love
Moments later, the guards retreated like a receding tide, and the chamber was peaceful once more. Clad in only her undergarments and a thin veil, Lily, her face still flushed, stood by the tub until the guards were far enough away. As the water grew colder, she finally exhaled, not daring to turn around. "They're gone, why aren't you coming out?"Silence filled the bright room. "Huh?" Puzzled, Lily turned to find Ethan crouching in the tub, his eyes locked on her chest, blood gushing from his nostrils, staining the clear water. Unaware, he remained still."Ah! Pervert!" Lily, startled, shrieked hysterically, and with a swift kick, her slender leg connected with Ethan's face.Ethan, caught off guard, choked on a mouthful of water. "What? A wolf? Where?" Charles hurried towards the room, his footsteps hurried."Father, it's nothing, I was mistaken," Lily quickly waved her hand."Mistaken?" Charles skeptically scanned the room, noting the orderliness and absence of anything suspicious,
Sovereign of Chaos Chapter 23: A Farewell Kiss
Silently, Ethan accepted the Lock of True Love. Lily smiled and carefully threaded a delicate silken strand through the lock before tenderly fastening it around Ethan's neck. Time seemed to stand still in the quiet room, the only sound the faint crackling of thick red candles.Beneath the flickering candlelight, Lily's blushing face held an unwavering gaze, as if to etch Ethan's visage into her very bones. Overwhelmed by a sudden tenderness, Ethan pulled her into his arms, and as he looked down at the mixture of unease, surprise, and shyness in her eyes, he leaned in and kissed her.Caught off guard, Lily struggled briefly before succumbing to the sensation of their soft, slippery kiss. When their lips finally parted, she recovered first, her face flushed with anger. "You bully!" She pushed Ethan away and yanked on his ear. Unfazed by the pain, Ethan merely grinned at her sheepishly.Silence settled over the room once more, the atmosphere now charged with a newfound tension. "Li
Sovereign of Chaos Chapter 24 A Letter Left By My Mother
Henry soon returned, holding a white envelope. The wax seal was intact, indicating it hadn't been opened."Ethan, this letter was written by your mother," Henry said, placing the envelope in Ethan's arms. "When you were only a few months old, your parents came to me, left this letter, and repeatedly instructed me to give it to you only after you reached the Meridian Training Realm. Don't think too much about your father's affairs. The more you know, the more dangerous it is for you. Remember, don't open it until you reach the Meridian Training Realm.""A letter from my father? I have to wait until I reach the Meridian Training Realm?" Ethan was bewildered."Yes," Henry confirmed. "While it's still dark, take the letter and flee. Once dawn breaks, the town's exits will likely be sealed, leaving you with no escape!"Ethan took a deep breath to calm himself, then bowed deeply to Henry. "Hurry up, lad," said Henry, a tinge of melancholy in his voice. "If the opportunity arises, come back
Sovereign of Chaos Chapter 25: The Seventh Layer of the Strong Blood Realm
A patrol of guards had just finished inspecting the Occult Shop on the street when they heard a commotion. The trio quickly rushed toward the source of the noise, the Occult Shop."What happened?" demanded a burly, shirtless guard, pushing the young man aside."I don't know. He was already dead when I arrived," the young man answered, his eyes wide with fear. Suddenly, a thought seemed to dawn on him, and he exclaimed, "It must have been Ethan! He's rumored to have an incredibly fast blade, and he holds a grudge against Uncle Caleb!""Ethan?" The muscular guard scanned the long street, but there was no sign of Ethan.The commotion in the street grew louder....At the foot of a mountain in the northern part of the town, there was a stream winding through the underbrush. It was spring, the season of growth and renewal, but this place seemed desolate and barren.As the camera zoomed in, a careful observer would notice a dark, hidden cave at the base of the mountain, near the stream. Th
Sovereign of Chaos Chapter 26: Assassination!
"Very well, I shall attend to this matter immediately!" said the bald man, turning on his heels and leaving the room without delay.As the bald man departed, a shadow flickered near the rockery in the courtyard, deftly leaping onto the eaves."Hmm?" The bald man rubbed his eyes. Unsure whether it was a trick of the night, he dismissed the thought. After all, everyone in town knew this was Caleb's residence; would any common thief dare to trespass here?The bald man thought no more of it and left the courtyard."Summon Riley to serve me tonight," Caleb nonchalantly commanded after the bald man had left completely."Yes, sir," came a crisp response from outside the hall.Moments later, a timid, beautiful young girl of around sixteen or seventeen, clad in plain attire, entered the room."Master Caleb..." Riley's eyes betrayed her concealed terror. Over a dozen girls had entered the courtyard, all with the same purpose—to serve Caleb in bed. Riley was merely one of them.This was Riley's
Sovereign of Chaos Chapter 27: Reverse Hand Blind Spot Blade
"Hm?" The bald man raised an eyebrow. "We were just searching the world for him, and now he's right at our doorstep! Let's go, everyone!"Immediately, the other guards in the inn rose to their feet and followed the bald man, jogging toward Caleb's courtyard."Is it Ethan the Madman?" The other patrons in the inn, who were eating and drinking, quickly put down their cups, paid their bills, and followed suit.The innkeeper had just come downstairs and saw that the once bustling hall was now empty. His face turned green with frustration. "Bad luck! What madman? He's like a jinx!"
