293. Defeated
Now that Marcus is alone, he doesn't stands no chance, right?" Edward asked no one in particular as they watched the face-off between the two men in the distance.They had no idea what they were talking about.General Wade, whose organs had healed a little, managed to rise to a seated position and say, "Shane Chain might be a half step, but we can't be so sure. I can't explain what I felt from Marcus just now.""You don't have to make excuses for your failure, Wade," Vera said, folding her arms. "Shane is a high-level practitioner.""That's right," one of her sisters agreed. "Who knows? Marcus might even be begging for mercy right now."Meanwhile, on the open field, Shane frowned after hearing Marcus speak."Bow? Who do you think you are? Oh—you're that little Marcus running around. I heard you used to run the mafia in this city long ago, but this is a new age," he said, puffing out his chest. "Take a look around: your practitioners are dead and all that's left is you. Why don't you g
292. The Half-Step Shane Chain
"What nonsense!" Amelia was visibly angered as she stamped her feet.She couldn't believe that her mother would even try to suggest this.Why use her as a bargaining chip when there were other bargaining options?An elder uncle stepped forward and spoke fiercely. "Don't even dare to say no. Now that our practitioners don't stand a chance against Marcus, only this half-step, Shane Chain, can save us.""That's right," Amelia's eldest aunt also supported, saying, "Amelia dear, don't you want to see our family saved today? If we get destroyed, how then will you become the heir of this family in the future?"A distant uncle chirped in, too. "Shane Chain is a great champion, even though he is a rogue from the east. He is feared throughout New Spring for dealing with two half-steps like himself within two days. Just imagine if he becomes a part of our Sinclair family—even the power players won't dare to offend us."How could they not grasp this moment to get themselves associated with a half
291. A Lost Cause
General Wade was sent flying several yards through the air and crashed in front of the Sinclair manor. He coughed out a mouthful of blood and even his nose was bleeding. His body was limp, and he could feel every bone in his body broken.Even the organs in his body had been cracked from the attack. If he tried to lift himself up, they would break and he would die in an instant. What sort of terrifying energy was that? He knew he didn't stand a chance the moment he came in contact with the strange energy from that Marcus guy.All of the energy in his fist had retreated in an instant and he was dealt a powerful blow. Now that he thought about it, his fingers were completely destroyed and his hand was covered in blood."General Wade...!" The members of the Sinclair came running up to General Wade, whose body had formed a small crater where he had landed.They had been glad that they might actually have the upper hand on the battlefield just now, but all of a sudden Marcus had shown
290. The Cultivator Army
Outside the Sinclair mansion, General Wade led the full master-cultivator army of the Sinclairs toward the open field. They were divided into several teams that stretched across the entire expanse of land, but they moved accordingly.The watchmen at the top of the manor towers turned the large spotlights toward the end of the open field, shining beams of light to reveal the positions of Marcus's army lining up ahead.Marcus was leading his army of practitioners downhill, moving normally but with the might of their fists. He was dressed in a long, flowy coat that swept the low grassland as he moved.If anyone watched from a distance, they would think it was a movie location and that the camera crew was hidden from view.In the history of New Spring, there had never been a battle between armies of cultivators fought in this fashion.When the two armies of cultivators were only a few meters from each other, they stopped at once and had a face-off, their eyes glaring dangerously at their
289. Marcus Is Coming
Meanwhile, at Sinclair Manor, the members of the Sinclair family were having a gathering in the great hall that day at noon, and the one who sat at the head of the table was Edward.His daughter, Amelia, was also seated beside him.“We have talked about this long enough,” Edward raised his voice. “Once we find this Marcus we will take him down.”“Are you forgetting the part where he has an army of practitioners and underground ruffians by his side?” one of Edward’s brothers responded aloud.This time, Amelia was the one who spoke. “Why don't we focus on finding Marcus first? Our practitioners who were injured during the last fights have fully recovered and will join forces with the new team Father summoned out of seclusion yesterday.”General Wade stepped forward from the side with his head still wrapped in gauze and said firmly, “Our Intelligence Team is closing in on Marcus’s location. Once we receive the information, we will smoke him out of whatever hole he lies in.” He spoke conf
288. Madam Secretary
Boom!There was a loud noise on impact, and the entire team of full masters collapsed in unison.Their internal organs had instantly ruptured; they died right there on the spot without even wailing.Terrifying!It took a while for the Major General himself to recover from what he had just witnessed in real time. He had heard about the young master’s terrifying abilities in the East five years ago, but rumor said he was weak now. This was not weakness. This was an overbearing force that crushed everything in its path.“Push forward!” he commanded, and they swarmed the chambers again, dividing into the several smaller rooms.They met resistance on their way, but it was only inexperienced thugs who stood no chance.Not long after, the Major General hurried back to William and beckoned politely, “This way, Young Master.”They arrived in one of the inner chambers where the giant brick doors gave way to reveal a fragile-looking woman chained to the ceiling. Her entire body was dyed crims
