“I don’t want to die!”“You don’t want to die?” Adrian asked.“Yes! I don’t want to die!”Adrian flew into a rage upon hearing this. He stood up and roared, “You don’t want to f*cking die, but did you think my father wanted to?!“Amputate his other arm!”“Aaaargh!”As Adrian’s voice died away, Richie’s right arm was separated from his shoulder. He broke down and let out an agonizing scream like a dying animal.Richie had a complete breakdown.Adrian calmed down and sat back down as he said, “It’s fine. We have doctors here. You won’t die or lose consciousness. You’ve spoken once. You have two more chances.“How about I take one limb every time you speak?”One limb for every time he spoke?Richie’s mouth hung open in astonishment as he looked at Adrian in a daze. “You… You’re a monster! Aargh!”As soon as Richie’s voice died away, he screamed out in agony once again. He felt the full force of Adrian’s monster-like terror at this very moment.Everyone was shocked. The dignif

After giving his orders, Adrian clasped Samantha’s hand, and together with Rue, they left Dream City.Behind him, Richie’s howls rang out but Adrian ignored him.Daniel executed Richie as the Battle Warrior Department dismissed the crowd after cleaning up the scene.The trio quickly drove back to the house. Adrian drove as Samantha and Rue sat quietly in the car.Rue was fine, but Samantha was feeling a rollercoaster of emotions. She felt haunted by the event that she had witnessed that night.She never imagined that her husband would possess such shocking abilities.“Adrian, tell me the truth about yourself. I saw how obedient Daniel was to you earlier. Who are you that you can order him around?” Samantha asked.She could not hold back her curiosity anymore.Rue looked toward her son as well. She was under the assumption that Adrian was just an ordinary person. He had not expected him capable of giving orders to the Battle Warrior Department.“Are you going to continue lying

Samantha felt rather vexed that she just realized this now.“Adrian, why didn’t you tell me about this earlier?” asked Samantha as she looked at Adrian in a daze.“I was afraid that you wouldn’t be able to accept it.”“You silly boy. Why wouldn’t I?”Samantha took a deep breath and said in a calm tone, “I’m sorry that I haven’t been treating you well during this period. You did so many things for me, yet I didn’t notice anything.”Adrian smiled and said, “You’re my wife. Do I need to be appreciated for doing something for my wife?”“If that’s the case, I have something else I’d like to ask,” said Samantha when she recalled something.“Go ahead.”“What’s with the medallion you showed Loid yesterday?” asked Samantha.Adrian was silent for some time upon hearing this question.Then, he turned his head and said to her with a smile, “It’s a Battle Warrior Medallion that Lucas gifted to me. The sight of this medallion is equal to meeting Lucas in person.“No one in Swallowston, or

Adrian smiled and wrapped his arm around Samantha upon seeing her actions.Suddenly, Samantha pulled off Adrian’s top and planted a soft kiss on his scar-covered chest.***The incident at Dream City spread throughout Swallowston overnight.Many people learned that the nightclub’s owner was killed in his own establishment and the underground world that had been active in Swallowston for many years was eliminated by the Battle Warrior Department at last.The Xanders were having dinner at home when they learned about the news.“Have you heard about the Battle Warrior Department eliminating Dream City about an hour ago? Even the owner was killed on the scene,” Wilfred said to the other Xanders as they ate.“Yes, the club has been shut down by the department for real. The whole city is shocked by the news of this incident.”“Do you know why the department would take action on the club out of nowhere?”“I have no clue.”The Xanders began discussing in succession.Meanwhile, Leona

“What?!”The Xanders were shocked and their eyes widened in surprise.‘Adrian single-handedly killed his way into Dream City?!’Cecilia asked anxiously, “What happened next?”Leonard inhaled a deep breath and said, “Afterward, Daniel arrived with a troop of Battle Warrior Department personnel. Richie then admitted to causing Henry’s death and was hence executed on the spot.“His head has been placed on Henry’s headstone as an offering.”Harold grew restless from the shock and his body shook. He had always assumed that his youngest son died from contracting an illness. He had not expected there to be a scheme behind Henry’s death.“Richie caused the death of my son and he deserves to die!” Harold slammed the table with a loud bang and was extremely furious.“Leonard, so it was Adrian who caused the incident in Dream City today huh?” Wilfred mused.“That’s right. Adrian got Richie killed to avenge Henry. Quite a number of people died today and they were all Richie’s subordinates
The Return of the War Legate Chapter 224
Upon hearing Adrian’s remark, Harold sordidly stared at Henry’s lonely-looking headstone.Even though there was bad blood between Harold and Adrian, and though he despised Rue, it was still his son buried in this grave.Ever since Henry was buried here, Harold had barely come to visit. He suddenly felt a tug of pain in his heart when he learned about the incident that had taken place in Dream City tonight.He had always assumed that his son died from an illness, but he suddenly learned that someone had murdered his son.Harold had been very fond of Henry because Henry established Paraiso all by himself and built a strong foundation for the Xander’s influence. In fact, Henry had also helped him to establish the Xander Group which was ranked among the top most powerful enterprises.Harold vaguely remembered how he had cried hysterically when he learned about Henry’s illness.Afterward, Leonard and Wilfred came to see him about Henry’s inheritance.Leonard and Wilfred felt that Adr

Harold suddenly realized that this young grandson of his was now a fully grown man.“I’ve already lost your father. I didn’t want to lose my other two sons,” Harold answered in a trembling voice.Adrian found Harold’s remark amusing. He got on his knees and pulled out the weeds that were growing around Henry’s grave. “You used my mother, my sister, and seven years of my life to exchange for a luxurious life for Leonard and Wilfred’s families.“Harold, you did well. You did very well indeed.”“W-Will you forgive me?” Harold asked, “Adrian, Cedric, and Jacob are already injured from you beating them up. I admit that I shouldn’t have done what I did, but I only did it for your two uncles.“Can we go back to the way we were before?” Harold pleaded.“I always thought that your father died from an illness. I only learned today that someone caused his death. If I had known, I would’ve looked into it. Rue didn’t tell me about any of this.”Harold was still trying to defend himself.He

Leonard and Wilfred were planning something that would affect their future.***Leonard and Wilfred immediately went looking for Harold when the latter returned the next day.Leonard asked, “Where did you go, Father? You were out all night.”Wilfred continued, “Yeah, we were worried sick.”Harold was in a foul mood.His third son’s killer had gotten off scot-free over the past seven years despite everything he had done, causing Harold, the father, to be struck with a heavy blow.“Am I supposed to report my whereabouts to you?” Harold said, sounding extremely displeased.After that, he continued and said, “I went to visit Henry’s grave. How did neither of you realize that someone had gotten him killed? And you two call yourselves his brothers?“Have you no shame?”Leonard and Wilfred were overcome with shame.Leonard then said, “How could we have known, Father? Rue was the one who chose not to tell us when she clearly knew the truth.“We swear Richie wouldn’t have gotten awa

The Daemon Emperor was startled."What is happening? This power..."Formless energy was surging forward, pressuring his nerves and senses.Below, Andy and the others trembled uncontrollably."Who is it?" Finnian stared into the crimson mist.Even Andy was horrified, his gaze locked on the unfolding scene in disbelief, and asked, "What is this? What exactly is happening?" At this moment, Adrian abruptly opened his eyes.Apparently, the Daemon Emperor had once conspired with Adrian's subordinates to ambush him.However, Adrian had managed to annihilate the traitors and sealed this Daemon Emperor. Now, fate had brought them together again."If I killed you once, I can kill you again." Adrian stood tall, his white robes fluttering in the air.The Daemon Emperor was stunned into silence."This is impossible! You're not that mortal boy!""Is that so? In this life, your end has come, and so has the era of the daemons." Adrian's voice was calm yet resolute. He stretched out his han

Adrian's face hardened at the words. He despised threats above all else. While he understood what the mysterious entity desired, he couldn't yet fully comprehend its implications or find a way to counter it. His only choice was to focus on growing stronger.Within the hot spring, waves of raw, terrifying power surged and crashed violently against Adrian's body.The force, though beneficial, was brutal and overwhelming. Adrian's body struggled to endure, cracking as though it were disintegrating."Arghhh!"A heart-wrenching scream echoed as Adrian's flesh was torn apart and his aura gradually dimmed."Ahhh!"His agonized cries echoed once more. He could no longer withstand the pain.In the distance, a towering figure appeared and sneered. "What's this? Can't take it anymore? Pathetic. Humans are truly the epitome of stupidity."Suddenly, Adrian erupted with an explosive surge of energy, and in that instant, he broke through to the pinnacle of the Void Stage."Hmm? He actually b

At that moment, the crowd was speechless.Adrian had ascended as if it were the easiest thing in the world.Faced with such a sight, no one could say much beyond admiration. Even if the Holy Son claimed Adrian had cheated, many secretly wished they could cheat the same way.Lacking Adrian's means, all they could do was envy him.Finnian chuckled. "Haha! You really caught us all by surprise, kid. Still, I'll count this as you repaying me a favor."For Finnian, the outcome couldn't have been better. With a broad smile, he seemed to have achieved his desired result. Adrian's successful climb was all that mattered to him.Once Adrian had vanished, the focus shifted to the rest of the group and their trials.When Adrian opened his eyes again, his entire body ached, but an oddly comforting sensation flowed through him. Surveying his surroundings, he realized he was now in a pond."Where am I?" he asked.Though uncertain about the place, Adrian knew he had cleared the trial and arriv

The onlookers stared in bewilderment, their faces etched with confusion as they struggled to grasp the unfolding events.Meanwhile, Adrian seethed with barely contained rage. This wasn't his first encounter with such torment. Every few steps he ascended, another trial awaited.To Adrian, the relentless punishments felt suffocating. Yet he pressed on—this was the final stretch of the climb. "Adrian, hang in there!" Andy shouted, urging him to conquer the last step. To Andy, reaching that final step symbolized Adrian's growth. He had witnessed Adrian's remarkable resilience countless times and held unwavering faith in his potential. In Andy's eyes, Adrian was destined for greatness. Adrian's expression turned cold as he locked his gaze on the steps ahead. Determination flickered in his eyes. "If reaching the top guarantees a reward, it doesn't have to be me up there. As long as someone makes it, that's enough." With that, he shifted his focus to the void above and formed

Adrian felt as if every nerve in his body was beyond his control. A deep sense of grievance filled his heart as the divine thunder from the void relentlessly crashed down.Rage surged within him, but under the onslaught of endless forces, he felt weak and constrained.Still, he had no choice but to press forward. He knew victory was within reach if he could endure a little longer—giving up now would mean death.If he fell, the shame and humiliation would crush him.Below, the Holy Son and others waited, eager to see him fail and mock him. This left Adrian no option but to push forward, striving toward the void above and his ultimate goal.The violent forces continued to bombard him from the sky.With every step, the thunder's impact intensified tenfold. His soul, already battered from a fierce battle with a horde of beasts, now felt as though it was dragging his exhausted body forward.Anyone else would likely have succumbed to despair. After all, under such immense pressure, ev

The oppressive forces descending from the void seemed determined to halt Adrian’s ascent up the staircase.Yet he refused to yield. To him, these overwhelming challenges were merely obstacles to conquer.He pressed forward with relentless determination.Thunderbolts continued to rain down, but the ominous red light from before did not return—a relief, as he never wished to endure its crushing weight again.The memory of that light still haunted him, leaving a lingering sense of helplessness. Its suffocating pressure had drained his strength, reducing him to a gasping, powerless state.Despite the toll on his body and mind, Adrian remained singularly focused on reaching the final step. His burning desire for greater power drove him forward, unwavering and resolute.Step by step, he ascended, reaching the 95th step in what felt like an instant.Only five steps remained. His gaze locked onto the summit, and a wild glint lit his eyes. A daring idea sparked within him, consuming his

Adrian pondered his situation, his cold gaze reflecting simmering frustration. Yet deep down, he recognized that whoever had designed the staircase was far from ordinary.Creating such a formidable trial required unimaginable power.Even a pinnacle Void Stage expert—or perhaps someone of the Multiply Stage—might bow in reverence before the ladder's creator."He won't last much longer. The divine lightning in this void is utterly destructive. In moments, he'll be reduced to ashes," sneered the Holy Son, his sharp eyes gleaming with malice.To the Holy Son, Adrian's demise was inevitable. Adrian had dared to offend him, and he was certain such audacity could only lead to death.Adrian caught the Holy Son's words and cast him a frosty glare. His intent to kill was unmistakable, though now wasn't the time.The staircase was no place for personal vendettas—eliminating him here would require careful planning.He also knew the Holy Son carried seals of immense power. A reckless move co

Finnian's sharp gaze reflected a hint of admiration. "Kid, you owe me a big favor this time. You'd better treasure this opportunity."Adrian remained silent, unsure how to respond. His cold eyes revealed no emotion, though he fully grasped the challenges ahead.Fear was a luxury he couldn't afford—he'd come too far to back down now.Suddenly, a streak of red light surged from the void, hurtling toward Adrian with terrifying speed. His eyes widened in shock as the crimson beam struck him, slamming him against the staircase.Caught off guard, Adrian collapsed, sprawled helplessly on the steps.The crowd below watched in astonishment. No one had expected his seemingly indestructible body to be overwhelmed so easily.The Holy Son sneered. "Haha! It seems he's triggered some kind of taboo. Let's see how arrogant he is now!"His voice dripped with schadenfreude, his eyes gleaming with malicious satisfaction as he relished Adrian's struggle.Despite the crushing force, Adrian refused

"What exactly is up there pulling me so strongly?" Adrian's expression hardened as he pondered the mysterious force drawing him upward.A surge of violent energy erupted across the sky, crashing down like a raging storm.Adrian advanced cautiously, each step deliberate and precise.Gone were the reckless strides of before—now he moved with steely determination, fully aware of the lurking dangers.He'd learned that the void's formidable forces seemed to target him directly, compelling him to proceed step by step. Any attempt to bypass its unseen barriers would provoke a devastating strike."Ridiculous," Adrian muttered. "If I've chosen to climb, nothing will stop me."The void's relentless power intensified.Bolts of thunder hammered down mercilessly, battering Adrian's body. Yet fear never crossed his mind.What was there to be afraid of?To him, the divine thunder wasn't an obstacle—it was a crucible, a tool to temper his body and strengthen his resolve.Despite the storm, A
