Ashton was a terrifyingly powerful force to be reckoned with.However, what could have happened next?How would he have handled the situation then?What was his next move when confronted with a supersonic jet and the pinnacle of military technology?"We have to get out of here. The next ten kilometers will be dangerous. Please hurry and get the Lindorm folks to safety. I will draw the battle deeper into the mountains," Ashton said mysteriously, leaving Mona, Chrissy, and the others in awe of his superior voice transmission skill.Ashton propelled himself forward, leaping dozens of meters in a flash.As he moved, another supersonic missile detonated nearby, causing a massive crater and scattering sand and stones in a shower of scorched earth.Ashton landed a hundred meters away and quickly descended into the mountains.The dense woods and rolling hills made it difficult to spot a single soul. Usually, Ashton would not bother hiding or sneaking around. However, the prowess of tho
"Heaven's Web Sword Skill, unleash!"Ashton's lips moved in silent incantation. 'Immortals manifest on earth.'As the sword vanished, golden light clashed with shadows, weaving a tapestry of gold and black that stretched to the horizon. It was an unbelievable sight—a dark blade surrounded by a halo of light."What in the world?" Fletcher Rabb was the first to notice the strange luminescence. It began near the ground, but it was upon him in less than a heartbeat, looking like a sword for all the world."Whoa!"When he felt a warm drop fall on him, the thought had barely registered. His vision became increasingly blurry. As he looked down, he noticed a bead of his own blood dripping from his brow.The helicopter he was flying then burst into a shower of sparks, like a firework in the night sky.The gold and black streak painted a stunning arc, instantly piercing another jet.Only then did the pilots realize Ashton had struck.The sheer speed caught them off guard. They never exp
"Sunoria's supersonic jet, an older F series model, simply cannot compete with our current K series in terms of speed or agility. We have an 80 percent chance of avoiding that golden light attack with our latest supersonic jets."A military researcher with striking blond hair and blue eyes presented his findings to a room full of officers in a Western command center."Are these findings based on actual tests?" a high-ranking officer asked."We pieced this together after a meticulous frame-by-frame breakdown of the footage, coupled with a thorough data analysis," the researcher said.The grizzled officer leaned in, his voice steady and low. "You can't compare theory to the heat of battle. Sure, our jets are faster, but what matters out there is a pilot's ability to think on their feet." He paused and pointed to the sky. "Did you notice that? That gold streak? It is as if it has its own mind, dodging and weaving with some high-tech guidance system. The only way to shake that is to go
Over a hundred people were gathered outside the TV station building. In their suits and shoes, these people stood tall. Those people stood upright in suits and shoes.Ashton glanced over and sneered.The upper echelons' temperament was not something those soldiers could imitate. They wanted to use the people in the lower classes as scapegoats? Fortunately, Ashton still had a trick up his sleeve."Mister Levin, Christon Tarranto is in charge of this operation. There are senior officials from the consortium and the cabinet supporting him."A man came to Ashton and spoke politely."Really?" Ashton smiled. "I did not expect the Sunoria consortium and Defense Unit leaders to be so young."When the man heard that, his heart skipped a beat.Obviously, Ashton did not believe what he said."Mister Levin, you don't know—""I don't need to know. I will know whenever I want to know about it." Ashton smiled and put his hand on the man's head. His arm became transparent as the energy return
"Madeline, you are very sensible. I'm happy.""You might as well tell me what trouble have you encountered this time?" Sharwin Felton narrowed his eyes and stared at her perfect body carefully. Everything that could happen with Madeline emerged in his mind, and he had even planned what he would do to her.He once stated his desire to possess her. He expected Madeline, an apprentice, to obey him willingly, but Madeline refused and left the clan. She never returned after all those years.Madeline was gifted. Even after leaving the clan, she had honed her skills to become a shadow ninja in a matter of years.However, she had returned to ask for his help. She appeared to have encountered a major problem that she could not resolve."I offended a martial arts practitioner in Lindorm. He is very powerful. His power is unimaginable.""A Linnish warrior? They are a mysterious bunch. But with your illusions and stealth abilities, even the Sunoria warriors can't look down on you. If you wan
"Linnish boy, who are you?"Sharwin was angry.That person intruded on his territory and dismissed him. He was the clan leader, and thousands of people respected him. He was about to use illusions to trap Ashton in a cage."Noisy."Ashton slapped Sharwin's head into the ground with such force that Sharwin could not avoid it.Sharwin was still perplexed as to how he could see his own body before he died. Of course, his head had been severed.Madeline, who was standing next to them, was expressionless as if she had anticipated that scene."I only have two things to say. Whether you want to kill me or not, please go ahead. I can't resist anyway."First, despite my involvement in the entire situation, I have never made a single decision. Those in power would always make the decisions. I am simply a woman who has to follow orders if I wish to live. I didn't want to kill Borra."Second, my abilities are in stealth, illusion, and tracking. I don't have any combat abilities, but my ab
"Aunt Elsie, I told you I already have someone I like, okay?" Yanne felt helpless. "You should let your son go out more. Maybe he can meet a girl who loves him instead of picking a girl you want to be your daughter-in-law. There is no such logic.""I have a crush on you. You look beautiful. I want a beautiful wife." The dark-skinned man scratched his head, saliva dripped down his mouth, and he sucked it up again.Yanne wanted to turn around and hide in the house, but Jaden said Ashton would be back soon, so she wanted to wait and see his return with her own eyes."Yanne, a woman must marry and bear children. Rorry is honest and strong. If you marry him, you will not be disappointed. When you have a baby, you will be responsible for the baby's care at home while Rorry will work. Is not that a good way to live?"Yanne shook her head. "Maybe we understand happiness differently. I don't think that marrying and having children is how a woman will be happy. I have dreams. I can also do w
Elsie was thrown more than ten meters away, slammed into the mud, and rolled for seven or eight rounds before coming to a halt. Her skin was bruised and bloodied, and half of her face had swollen to twice its original size."Mother! Mother!"Rorry rushed up, threw himself down next to Elsie, and then viciously rushed toward Ashton with a machete."I'll kill you, you little shit!"Rorry flew into the air after Ashton slapped him. He smashed into Elsie, and there were screams that sounded like wolves wailing.After two slaps, they were quiet."Master, I did not expect Lindorm to have such rude people. In Sunoria, this kind of garbage would've had their limbs cut off and sent to the street for exhibition." Madeline's voice was cold."Master?" When Yanne heard the title, she could not help but puff up her cheeks.Why was she calling Ashton master? Ashton brought another beautiful girl back. She was outraged. Madeline had such a good figure, too. Only Kendra could compete with her i
