Afraid of scaring his wife and daughter, Elijah said gently, “Wait for me inside the car. I’m just going to grab something inside. Let’s take Claire shopping as well!”

Alice frowned as she remarked, “We’re already home. Why do you suddenly want to get her new clothes?”

“It’s nothing. I just feel it would be nice.” Elijah found a random excuse.

Being a child, Claire was excited when she heard that Elijah was going to take her out shopping.

Seeing how excited and happy Claire was, Alice naturally agreed to it.

Thus, both Alice and Claire stayed in the car while Elijah walked toward the villa alone.

After pushing open the villa door, Elijah walked directly toward the stairs. The murderous aura he detected just now was coming from the master bedroom on the second floor.

His footsteps were extremely light, especially when he stepped on the soft carpet.

He remained silent all the way until he reached the door of the master bedroom before kicking it open!

With the strong impact of his kick,

  • The Almighty God of War Returns   An assassin named Walter

    A cold glint of sharpness appeared in Elijah’s eyes as he learned that the Abnomars were still daring enough to send assassins after him.He headed to the bathroom to wash off the bloodstains on his hands while pondering the best way to deal with the current situation.By the time he was done washing his hands, he had decided on his next move, and so he took out his cell phone and made a call. “There’s a corpse in my bedroom. Send someone to pick it up and dump it at the entrance of the Abnormar residence. Clean up the room too.”“Yes, General!” the other person immediately acknowledged without hesitating or asking about anything, as if it was just a simple order.Elijah hung up and took a look at the time.It had only been three minutes since he entered the villa.After thinking about it, he changed into a fresh set of clothes before walking out of the villa.He opened the car door and got inside.Alice and Claire were both unaware of the murder that had just occurred in their home

  • The Almighty God of War Returns   Without a doubt!

    “Why are you yelling? Behave yourself! Are the Hernandez family members all so ill-mannered?” Sir Walter was already in a foul mood, and he got even more frustrated when Ricardo suddenly charged in.“It’s Remus…” Ricardo, who had always been calm, was so flustered that he couldn’t speak coherently.“What happened to Remus? Is he back?” Sir Walter quickly asked.On the verge of tears, Ricardo spluttered, “Remus… Remus is dead!”“What did you say?!” Sir Walter’s expression changed drastically, and he suddenly stood up, staring at Ricardo in disbelief.Although Sir Walter had taken many apprentices under his tutelage in his life, most of them hadn’t learned much of his skills, except Remus, who was his favorite disciple and whom he was most proud of too.Not only had Remus learned almost all his skills, but he was also set to be Sir Walter’s successor.Sir Walter originally thought that apart from himself, there would probably be no one in the field of combat who could rival Remus.He di

  • The Almighty God of War Returns   The sound of the wind

    Elijah immediately thought of the Hernandez' and the Abnomars.After all, he had killed Jamie Hernandez, and just three hours ago, he had killed the killer sent by the Abnormars.They definitely wouldn’t give up just like that.Elijah was certain that they would continue to send more people to avenge them.He didn’t move and continued to stroll casually with Alice and Claire as if he wasn’t aware of their presence.But two familiar figures suddenly appeared beside Elijah.After secretly nodding at him, they walked away like ordinary passersby.They were none other than Alec and Leo, members of the Thirteen Warriors, commanders who were the most loyal to Elijah.At this time, it was almost two hours to midnight.There were few pedestrians on the streets downtown now, and the streets were gradually becoming empty.A killer tailing them tried to restrain his aura and hid behind a large garbage can outside a store.While watching Elijah and the others, he tried to change his position agai

  • The Almighty God of War Returns   Kill order

    The killer hurriedly said, “The Hernandez family requested Sir Walter to send his apprentice to assassinate Mr. Silva, but he ended up getting killed by Mr. Silva instead. That’s why Sir Walter was furious and sent us to kidnap Mr. Silva and then take him to the Hernandez' to be at their disposal!”When Alec heard this, the murderous intent in his eyes intensified, and his gaze became extremely terrifying.“In that case, is Sir Walter in the Hernandez'’ manor now?”“Y-yes!”“We’re just following orders. We don’t have any personal feud with Mr. Silva. Please…”In the dim corner, several shrieks filled the air one after another, but before long, silence returned.Soon, Alec and Leo composedly walked out of the corner and left as if nothing had happened.At this time, Elijah just arrived back in the lake villa and heard a text message alert.He opened his phone and saw the text Alec sent.“Those killers were sent by Sir Walter, who works for the Abnomars, to avenge his dead apprentice.

  • The Almighty God of War Returns   An unusual clamor

    “Dad, do you think there’s something wrong with Sir Walter? His apprentice was killed by Elijah Silva, yet all he’s doing is throwing a tantrum in our place. Why doesn’t he go take revenge on Elijah Silva himself? I doubt those killers he sent will be able to do anything!” Diego’s younger son, Julio Hernandez, asked impatiently.He was the one who had suggested that they join forces with the Abnomars and ask them to send an expert to deal with Elijah.But he didn’t know how powerful Sir Walter was, though he knew that Sir Walter loved putting on airs all the time.Besides, he was clearly the one who had put forward the suggestion, yet Diego sent his brother, Ricardo, to host Sir Walter instead.So Julio had been extremely displeased, feeling that his brother had taken all the credit from him again.Diego’s face darkened, and he said sternly, “Shut up! You should never say such things again! If Sir Walter hears you, even I won’t be able to protect you! Also, if you offend him and end u

  • The Almighty God of War Returns   You don't need to know

    “What?!” Diego’s expression drastically changed while the other Hernandez' were astounded too.Sir Walter was an elite expert the Abnomars had sent, and ordinary people couldn’t get close to him.Besides, he was now a distinguished guest of the Hernandez' and was in a foul mood because of his apprentice’s death.Which audacious person was so brazen that he charged into Sir Walter’s villa?“Bastard, this is outrageous! How dare he barge into Sir Walter’s villa? He must be tired of living!” Diego hollered in exasperation.But since the matter occurred in the Hernandez'’ manor, they would have to take a look at the situation as the hosts and placate Sir Walter at the same time.To show their respect for Sir Walter, the expert working for the Abnomars, the Hernandez' had specifically arranged for Sir Walter to stay in the villa beside Diego’s, which was in the middle of the manor.As soon as Diego led the Hernandez out of the villa, they saw an enormous hole because the thick alloy door h

  • The Almighty God of War Returns   Dead silent

    The Hernandez family members stood outside the villa, not daring to get too close, though they heard the conversation between Sir Walter and Alec.“It seems this person should be Sir Walter’s enemy. He barged into our manor today because he wanted to deal with Sir Walter! Thank God…” Ricardo hurriedly patted his chest and heaved a sigh of relief.Although he didn’t finish the rest of his sentence, all the Hernandez family members understood what he meant.Naturally, Ricardo was thankful to find out that this man wasn’t after the Hernandez family.But Diego wasn’t that optimistic.Sir Walter was a top expert who worked for the Abnomars and whom the Hernandez family had requested to help them, making him an honored guest of the Hernandez family.Regardless of whether the man in front of them was Sir Walter’s enemy and here to take revenge, the Hernandez family couldn’t stay out of it completely.Otherwise, if something unfortunate happened to Sir Walter in the Hernandez family manor, th

  • The Almighty God of War Returns   Stuck in a dilemma

    Alec turned the dagger in his hand and shook off the last bit of blood remaining on it.Then he turned around to look at the Hernandez family, who were dumbstruck and rooted to the ground at the entrance of the villa.“Those who dare to provoke him will suffer a miserable fate!” After saying this coldly, he walked toward the entrance.But when he was a few meters away from the entrance, Diego snapped back to his senses as though he had just woken up from a dream and yelled, “Men, get ready!”With his order, the dozen or so gunmen who had just hurriedly assembled immediately raised their pistols and aimed them at Alec’s head.Alec stopped in his tracks and turned around to glare at Diego hostilely. “This isn’t the first time in my life that I’ve been held at gunpoint by so many men, yet I’m still alive and kicking today. Do you have any idea why?”Diego’s face twitched violently.Alec said, “Because those who’ve had the guts to threaten me with a gun were all killed by me!”As Alec sai

  • A serious medical case

    “The patient’s injuries are too serious. We’ve already done our best, but it’s still very likely that he will remain bedridden forever, which is known as being in a vegetative state. Of course, if the situation turns for the better, he might still be able to regain consciousness.”The doctor comforted them helplessly and then dragged his exhausted body away.Looking at Albert lying lifelessly on the hospital bed with the ventilator and lots of tubes attached to him, Elijah felt rather sorrowful.Albert was just his family butler, and they didn’t share a very close relationship in the past. But he didn't deserve such a fate.Unfortunately, he was now in a vegetative state after the sudden car accident, and it was almost impossible for him to regain consciousness ever again.Making a decision to ensure that Albert would recover, Elijah walked out of the ward and went to a secluded area to make a call.Soon, a man on the other end asked in surprise, “Huh? I didn’t think that you’d take

  • Involved in a ghastly accident

    Layla nodded and said honestly, “Yes, apart from assassination, there are many other terrible things. As long as it’s a task that offers easy money, the organization will basically agree to it. They’re also secretly supporting a lot of powerful families and forces. Oh, right, and they also ask members to go around to solicit beautiful women and send them to powerful families and forces as social escorts used in exchange for benefits. Although I haven’t done such a thing, I’ve witnessed it several times.”As Elijah and Layla were discussing, they would have no idea that something bad was about to happen to a notable figure.At this moment in another part of the city, Albert Sanders, butler of the Augustus family, had just finished meeting with some powerful individuals in Crystal Falls in a bid to ensure that should there be a need to flee the capital, he would be able to ensure Sir Augustus safety.When he was about to leave work, he suddenly received a call from Sir Augustus who call

  • Pledging allegiance

    Layla pursed her lips, but she nevertheless said, “I don’t know how much you know about the organization, but it’s actually colossal. There is not only an enormous amount of experts, but it also has forces and branches all over the world. They’re not to be trifled with. My abilities aren’t considered extraordinary, and there are many people much better at martial arts than I am. So even the eight major families in the capital are trying their best to cooperate with the.. They don’t dare to be hostile to them either.” Looking at Elijah with a complicated expression, she said cautiously, “Going toe-to-toe against the shadow organization will bring about a huge tragedy if you’re not careful. I have to inform you about this. Actually, I’m very grateful to you for saving my life yesterday, so you don’t have to…” Before Layla could finish speaking, Elijah interrupted her. “It’s just a small organization. It’s no big deal. What I said last night still stands. If they come to me on their ow

  • It's already too late

    The pupils of the three men in black constricted, and one of them immediately yelled, “What else do you want? We won’t catch this woman today!”Elijah smiled mirthlessly. “It’s already too late.”As soon as he finished speaking, the coins in his hand immediately darted out, and the shiny metal surface of the coins reflected the panic-stricken faces of the three men trying to dodge.But the next instant, the coins accurately penetrated through the throats of these three people.Three jets of blood spurted into the air as the three men in black froze in place.A few seconds later, they collapsed onto the ground with loud thuds and could no longer move.Blood gradually spread across the ground with an intense iron odor.Layla sat on the ground in a daze, staring at the corpses on the ground. All of them were killed in seconds!It was incredible!Layla’s jaw dropped as she looked at Elijah in disbelief. She moved her lips, but she couldn’t say a single word.The power of this man in front

  • Did I say you could leave?

    “Punk, report your name! Who exactly are you?” The man in black held his bleeding right wrist pierced by the coin while clenching his teeth and glowering at Elijah.Elijah raised his eyebrows.Most people would be overwhelmed with immense pain when they received such an injury, and very few would be able to remain so calm and only let out a short cry of pain at the start.This was enough to show that he definitely wasn’t an ordinary person.Elijah guessed that these people probably came from the same organization as Layla did.However, Layla suddenly wanted out of the organization for some reason, but they weren’t willing to let her go, so they sent people to capture her.As for the chief these men in black had mentioned, Elijah reckoned that he was probably the head of one of the organization’s branches.Elijah glanced at them calmly and said in a frigidly composed tone, “You’re not qualified to know who I am! You just need to remember that if you still don’t get lost in a minute, yo

  • Layla

    A wave of unusual footsteps suddenly rang out all around, and several people clad in black suddenly appeared and surrounded Layla.“Hah, Layla Al'Ghul, where else do you want to run off to now? You’ve made us look for you for such a long time. You’re really something!”Layla’s expression changed drastically, and she immediately put her guard up.“You people are really everywhere! I’ve already told you before that I’ve already quit. I have nothing more to do with you guys!” Layla hollered with a cold expression.“Hah, you want to quit just like that? Dream on! The chief has already instructed us to tell you that he will give you another chance if you come back with us obediently. If you don’t know any better, the only thing you’ll face is death!” the leader, a man clad in black, said coldly.“Give up! I won’t go back there even if I die!” Layla yelled furiously through gritted teeth.“Hmph, since you’re so stubborn, prepare to die!” The leader issued an order, and five people around hi

  • Hold it right there!

    Alice glanced at Elijah. “Who's that?”“Stay here.” Elijah remarked as he stepped out.The woman was none other than one of the assassins that had tried to kill Celeste. At the time, Elijah had let her off in the end because she held a special sword.He had merely knocked it out of her hand and confiscated it.He didn’t expect this woman to come after him to ask for the blade. “I’ve already told you the last time we met that those who work for evil are not worthy of owning that sword! Get lost, or I can’t guarantee that I’ll let you off this time!” Elijah roared angrily.The woman in black stayed silent for two seconds before walking toward Elijah. “My grandfather left this sword behind for me. You must return it to me!”Light shone on her face, revealing her features.The last time they met, she had been wearing a mask, concealing her face completely.But this time, her face was not covered, and Elijah could tell that she was probably around 27 or 28 years old.She wasn’t very pret

  • That mysterious organization

    With that, Elijah turned to Denise. “Happy?”Denise nodded in slight embarrassment. “There was no need for that.”“You were being maltreated. There's no way I'd allow my daughter's benefactor go through such.”Then, Elijah turned to Celeste and said. “Her name is Denise, and she once saved my daughter.”Celeste was greatly surprised.She thought that there might be some other relationship between the beautiful Denise and Elijah.But they didn’t expect that Denise had saved Claire.It was no wonder that Elijah had helped her just now and had even forced Taylor to slap herself ten times in the face in order to help her get justice.Celeste’s heartstrings, which were tensed up, suddenly eased up as a smile bloomed on her face.“So you once saved Claire. That’s great!” Celeste said smilingly as she held Denise’s hand.Denise felt a little embarrassed. “Actually… I didn’t help Claire with anything. I’m not really considered her savior.”Elijah said firmly, “You helped Claire, and you did i

  • Bullying the bully

    The restaurant lobby wasn’t that large, and their conversation was soon heard clearly by the onlookers, who were waiting for the matter to develop further.“Who exactly is this young man? Celeste Ainsworth is on his side, and she doesn’t mind going against Miss Taylor for this young man!”“I don’t know, but I reckon he must be someone with an incredible identity! No wonder he insisted on confronting Sparda and Miss Taylor. It turns out he really has what it takes to do so!”“Hehe, do you guys think Taylor Baylor will slap herself? Just look at how arrogant she was. Now, she’s finally defeated. I’m so happy!”“Hahaha, why don’t we have a bet? Let’s see if Miss Taylor will slap herself or not.”“Shh, shut up! Keep your volume down. Be careful they might take revenge on you! You’re not like that young man who has the power to go against the Baylors!”All sorts of whispering spread to Taylor.She was so enraged that her face flushed, and she felt a strong urge to nab these gloating people
