"Depending on your methods, you should also be a master of inner strength cultivation, but are you crazy? This is Harbor Island, not the mainland, and it's not for you to act as you wish here."Castor, dressed in a tuxedo, appeared at the entrance. He had a glass of red wine with him."Regardless of whether Faedra owes you something, I can't let you go since you dare to act out of turn.""Good!"Everyone applauded."Mister Johanson is truly the grandson of the most powerful grandmaster on Harbor Island. With such an aura and temperament, he is truly unmatched."Castor felt smug after hearing many compliments. After descending the stairs, he approached Ashton. Everyone heard him, too."The entire Lindorm is full of martial artists. You are arrogant and think you are better than others. Don't you think you are being ridiculous?" Castor smiled coldly."That's right. Even though we have never practiced martial arts or studied any techniques, I have studied business and can make a f
That punch broke his ribs and killed him on the spot.Castor collapsed, stared at Ashton, and died.No one expected the man to kill Caelus's grandson immediately.The sky was falling. The sky on Harbor Island was definitely collapsing.Faedra sat on the ground.She never expected her momentary greed to cause such a catastrophe.Castor died because of her. Even if this incident subsided, the family would punish her, lose her identity as an heir, and fall to the bottom of the barrel.If she knew she would cause such a catastrophe, she would give up the dendrobiums. It would be better to lose some benefits than to cause trouble of that scale."Why are you killing people? I'll give them to you. Can't I just give you the century-old dendrobiums?" Faedra blushed and glared at Ashton in despair.Ashton laughed off a minor matter. "Century-old dendrobiums? Do you think dendrobiums can fix this massive problem now?"The Sullivan family wants to calm my anger? In addition to the three
"Jibril, speak slowly. How much do you know about Ashton? Who is he?" Gideon calmed Jibril, but everyone already had a bad feeling in their hearts.Jibril smiled bitterly."I don't know much about him, but he was a lunatic who dared to do anything, regardless of the consequences.""Mister Sullivan, do you remember our first meeting in the Imperial Capital? I lived on the streets and had nothing to eat. You gave me a bite of food, brought me back to Harbor Island, and accepted me as your subordinate for so many years."Over the years, I never told you what happened before I lived on the streets, right?"Gideon nodded.Indeed, Jibril never mentioned it, nor did he ask, mainly because he did not think it was necessary. He trusted Jibril and knew he was fully committed, which was enough."Actually, I used to be a guard with the wealthy Zaborski family in the Imperial Capital. I had an official military rank."And the Zaborski family was one of the wealthy families protected by the
The next second.Dozens of people flew out upside down and fell over. The entire street was smashed into a mess.The Wisteria Club's sexy 30-year-old owner ran out of the store quickly."Officers, what's wrong? We operate in good faith. There is absolutely no violation of the law here.""Get out of here."The captain-in-chief swatted his hand, and the boss fell to the ground."Fuck! So many of us stopped by a little bastard from the south of the mainland? What the hell did we even train for?""Go in! All of you. Find the target and shoot him. Kill him on the spot!"The second wave rushed in again.Everyone in that group bounced back, and several hit rocks and ruins. Some were seriously injured with bleeding heads."He's so strong. I haven't seen such a powerful guy in eight years since I joined the police force. I even wonder if he is a mutant or invulnerable god-like being." A beautiful man stood in the middle of the street with his hands crossed at his waist."Then what do
"All of you, get out of the way."The Harbor Island government's special envoy stood before him, staring coldly at the man in the captain's uniform."A group of trash! You failed to complete the task assigned by the governor. Now, the governor has ordered me to take over the whole matter. Who are you to resist the order?"The captain was a biracial man. As soon as he turned his gaze on Ashton, his eyes were filled with hatred."I don't care where you come from. If you cause trouble in my city, I will make you pay a painful price.""Slap him."Ashton walked past him.Jaden slapped the biracial man; his face was immediately deformed."The people in the Harbor Island government don't understand the rules?""If you speak rudely again, it won't be just a slap in the face."The captain placed a hand around his waist to draw his gun, and a man in a military uniform next to him immediately held his hand."Sorry, Captain Smithers joined the force not too long ago. He doesn't understa
"If you want the thousand-year-old Snow Lotus, just come and get it. Kill me. You can get all my treasures."Ashton walked slowly, gaining power with each step. His aura was grandmaster-level by the time they were ten meters apart.Caelus waved his long sleeves and smiled faintly. Everyone felt that the surrounding air was about to stagnate.The realm of the Laws of Nature."He achieved such a deep understanding of the Laws of Nature? Grandmaster Johanson is really the strongest mystic arts practitioner!"According to rumors, the realm of Laws of Nature could bend the laws to nature with the power of words.Caelus's fingers moved quickly as he drew light patterns in the air, and each pattern flew out like a mystic array condensing around Ashton. Each mystic array radiated dark and evil energy. That only affected the movement of the person within, but it could also severely affect the mind, and cause said person to be stuck in an illusion.After seven breaths, 30 to 40 patterns r
Beneath the towering Mount Velikarc. There, Caelus was a force to be reckoned with.It was not about arrogance. Caelus genuinely believed in his unmatched power. Yet, such greatness came at a price that weighed heavily on him."I'm 96 now. For 66 years, I've tapped into the very essence of Mount Velikarc, seeking wisdom from the mountains and drawing lessons from the cosmos."And now, in my twilight years, I've crafted my magnum opus."Caelus laughed—it echoed across the vast landscape.Onlookers watched in awe as he gracefully ascended, each step taking him closer to the skies.A chilling breeze caught him, suspending him about 30 meters above."To rise with the wind, to soar without limits—that's the essence of the Order of the Elementalists!" he shouted.Everyone from the Southern Mystic Arts watched, their eyes gleaming with envy.Whether they practiced martial arts or the mystical—did they not dream of such grandeur, setting them apart from the mundane?In that moment, C
The Sullivan family was terrified.All their 30 members were in a haunting silence.Suddenly, Faedra collapsed to her knees."I was wrong, Lord Ashton. I take full responsibility. Please spare the Sullivan family."Ashton's piercing gaze moved to family members. Nobody dared look at him."Weren't you berating me, calling me a little shit? Why the sudden loss of courage? Have you all become cowards as disaster approaches?"The Sullivans' hair stood on end at Ashton's words.He heard that? Was he not fighting Caelus?Heinrich sighed deeply.He knew begging was pointless. Titans like Ashton would not forgive and forget. The Sullivan family would need to face the consequences of their actions.Soon after, the senior officials of the Harbor Island Government rushed over."Master Levin, since you bested Caelus in the duel, the Sullivan family now owes you six hundred-year-old dendrobiums, ten 500-year-old medicines, and half of their business empire."Initially, the Harbor Island
