Jaxson grinned. He had forgotten how long he had been unable to walk with his head up.After learning Ashton was Master Levin of South Edren, he felt tense around him. He only wanted to marry quickly and return to the Imperial Capital with Alora.He could not fight that monster in South Edren.After Ashton crashed his wedding and took Alora, he said nothing. His uncle was the one who confronted the other man. However, he knew his uncle was no match for Ashton in South Edren.After Cillian appeared, everything changed.As a powerful force active in northern Lindorm, Jaxson was surprised that Cillian would appear there, but it was not important. The important thing was that Ashton was finished. With Mister Horton as his main backer, he could wipe Ashton and his forces out of the face of the earth if he wanted to."Levin, did you hear that? Mister Horton wants you to cut off your hands and feet. He wants you to kneel for three days to make amends to the Xenakis family. Everyone here
"Young master? He is?" Cillian was stunned and suspicious of Ashton.Did Jaden's young master come from the family that hired him years ago?"Think about the incident in the Imperial Capital all those years ago." Jaden grinned coldly.Cillian was terrified.The Imperial Capital's most tragic and severe upheaval in 50 years occurred then.That incident caused a significant reshuffle of the Imperial Capital's power structure, and earth-shaking changes occurred.The son of a mysterious family was the root of that change.That young master's name struck fear in everyone's hearts.How horrible could a person be to slaughter 50 members of a prominent family on a snowy night? No one else in that incident made it out alive.Too many legends surrounded that young master. Since then, the prominent families have had one new rule—do not cause trouble at will, let alone provoke unknown people. It was meant to prevent a disaster.It surprised Cillian that the incident's protagonist was rig
"You're asking for this!"Dominic stood up, and the huge tremor made the entire hall tremble slightly as an outburst of energy burst like a tornado."You must go through me before you can do anything to the young master." Jaden slapped the sheath, and all four swords appeared."Ace of Swords, do you think the eight of us are mere decorations?"The eight top masters joined forces to fight Jaden. Even though Jaden was strong, he could not escape the encirclement instantly.For a while, Ashton stood alone.Jaxson was excited when he realized that.The next second, his smile vanished.A mountain-shaking force from outside the door ended Dominic's plans."What?" Dominic was taken aback."Trying to bully my son while I'm away? Hmm?""Dominic, I think you're itching for a fight from all the years I've been gone."An afterimage came in an instant and slapped Dominic. The latter flew backward in response, smashing the furniture in an extremely embarrassing manner.A mighty figure s
The Latham family was in a mess."Are you all packed up? See if you missed anything. Just leave your worthless antiques. What can't we buy if we have money? Saving your life is the most important thing."Howard, have you booked the plane tickets yet? We must get on the plane as soon as possible, and we can't delay any longer."Florence walked into the living room.When she saw Alora sitting calmly, she got mad again. "Stupid girl, you're not leaving, are you? Okay! Just stay here and wait to die. Mister Xenakis will never let you go, and the Xenakis family will never let you go, either!"Let's go!""Mom, the cab hasn't arrived yet. Where are we going?" Howard walked out with a big bag on his back."It's weird. It's been almost half an hour, why hasn't the car arrived yet? Hurry up and call them," Florence said."Mom, something's wrong." Howard looked at the surveillance screen on his phone. His face was pale."What's the matter?" Florence hurriedly looked at Howard's screen.
"The mere Xenakis family dares to steal my son's woman?" Darek was very dissatisfied with Florence's words, but when he realized she was Alora's mother, he decided to be polite.'"Your daughter will never be mistreated in the Levin family." Darek pulled a pebble-sized colored stone from his pocket."This is a small gift for our first-time meeting."Florence instantly lost her anger. She felt dizzy holding the colored stone.Beautiful! So beautiful! How could there be such a beautiful gemstone?Women were especially vulnerable toward gems and jewelry."This is?""It's just a relatively rare gemstone in my little collection. I'm giving it to you because I think this fits your temperament well." Darek grinned.Ashton was speechless.Darek did not act like an adult. He behaved like a hooligan, reckless with his words. Ashton was ashamed to have him as his father.Florence was immersed in the gem, her eyes lit up. "This gem is very expensive, right?""Who knows, but are you guys
"Let me guess." Ashton smiled faintly. "Dominic sent you. He did not dare to do it in front of my old man. He's trying to be sneaky and kill me in private, right?"The old man smiled. "Just keep guessing. You can go to hell and keep guessing.""Come on, kill him now!""Ash."Alora's face paled, and she grasped Ashton's arm tightly."I'll send you to safety first."Ashton jumped off the ground with one hand around her waist and the other over her head. He glided through the crowd and left gracefully."Such a powerful control of energy! It seems he learned this from Darek. He is not allowed to live. Chase after him!"Several killers hid in the crowd and gave chase on the street.Ashton soon approached the Lathams' mansion."Go home. I'll take care of this.""Be careful. Run if you can't beat them. I know you can run away," Alora said nervously.Ashton gave her a reassuring look and nodded.He did not do it in the restaurant because of the innocent bystanders and Alora.Alor
"Mister Levin, you can't treat Young Master like a fool. Over the years, he has investigated the incident. He knows who the real murderer is and also knows the situation with the Levin family."A series of measures to deal with the Levin family were just distractions to make the opponent underestimate him so he can have time to set up his plan."The other party has known for years that Young Master lives in South Edren. They did not act because his illusion confused the other party."Jaden grinned. "Imagine a useless person who hides behind and leeches off a woman and hates the Levin family. You'll let him live so he can continue to be a joke, right?"After all, that person is happier when the joke is on the Levin family."Darek raised his brows. He stared at Ashton, who was once known as the Imperial Capital's little devil."It's not bad to show your weakness.""It's not a sign of weakness. If the opponent doesn't feel threatened, he will not bother me. External threats have in
"I didn't expect to be this popular. I'm finally here, and your master invites me to tea, and the Dark God Sect also wants me as their guest."However, there's only one of me, and I can't be at two places simultaneously."Darek smiled as he drank the alcohol.Next to him, the cold expression on Pyunik's face disappeared. Then, he smiled. "Master Purdue, please play with them and send them to meet their beloved dark god."Master Purdue put his hands together and put them on his chest. "Blessed be."Then, he waved his robes. A violent wind formed under his feet as he dashed to the back."Hmm? Invisibility?" Louis saw Master Purdue vanish, his pupils constricted to capture the opponent's movement.Then, a voice came from behind him, surprising him."May the gods bless you."The monk slapped Louis' head. In just an instant, mountainous inner strength broke into Louis' body and went on a rampage. Louis' whole body swelled and then exploded into pieces. Blood splattered everywhere,
