The door swung open as the words left the person’s lips. With that, Iris was frozen in place as though time had stopped. Overwhelmed with emotion, Fred lowered his stature and called out, "Mom! I’ve come to see you!"

"Fred? Is it really you? Am I dreaming? Oh, is it really you?" Iris quickly rubbed her eyes, even pinching Fred's face to make sure.

"Mom, be gentle. It hurts!" Fred said hastily.

After confirming that she was not dreaming, Iris immediately chided, "You’re always so reckless out there and now you’re saying it hurts?”

Despite saying this, Iris quickly let go of his cheek as tears settled in her eyes. The way she cared for and missed Fred was so evident. It made Wanda, who was behind Fred, a little jealous. "Mom! Why are you only focused on Fred? I came to see you too!” she complained.

"Why are you making a fuss, you little troublemaker! A daughter isn't as tied to the family as a son is, so I have to dote on my son!" Iris resumed her teasing, but the affection in her e

    Inspect the seal on the Ancient Martial World? Quinton's brows immediately furrowed when he heard that. As a descendant of one of the families of the Eight Great Warlord Gentries, he was aware of the strength of ancient martial practitioners. His concern also stemmed from having no knowledge of the location of the seal.Quinton immediately apologized and said, “Great One, my deepest apologies. While the eight families have been passing down knowledge of the ancient warlords’ existence and have heard about their power, we have no information about their world. "We certainly don't know where the seal is located either.”"I see." Fred's eyebrows furrowed slightly upon hearing this, but he was not entirely surprised. If the old king had sealed the Ancient Martial World, it was likely that he did not want anyone to know about it. It was to prevent any attempts to break the seal. Fred guessed that this might be the reason why the eight families had been passing down knowledge of the

    Who?Where?Cameron's frown deepened at the seductive woman's cryptic words.Within a heartbeat, his forehead was slick with cold sweat.As if summoned by their conversation, a man with a chillingly grim expression materialized beside him, settling onto the adjacent couch as though he had always been there.It was not just the man's icy demeanor.Cameron felt a dread just by looking at him."Allow me to introduce him!"The seductive woman, evidently amused by Cameron's alarm, grinned and said, "Meet Mr. Marshall, our point man for handling the Hansens' issue.""Is he up to it?"Despite sensing Marshall's ominous vibe, Cameron could not hide his worry. The enemy was Gustafson, Fred's chosen champion, the so-called Somer God of War.The success of their intricate plan depended on Marshall keeping Gustafson busy. It was the linchpin, and if he failed, Cameron knew he would be exposed. Whether it was Fred's wrath or the vengeance of the Orton family's enemies, his life would be

    The Drako Nimbus Alps loomed large with a history steeped in battles and schemes. It was here that Gustafson and Fred had their fateful duel, a prelude to the Somer God of War plan. In the aftermath, this rugged place was commandeered by the Fifth Bureau of Nation Six, transforming into their most vital office in Capital City.However, unbeknownst to many, the Alps also served as a high-security prison, holding criminals whose deeds were the stuff of nightmares to the common folk. Among these detainees was Jeremiah, head of the Terras, one of the eight great Warlord families."Director Wallace, enjoying some quiet time lately, I see!" The jibe cut through the silence of the Fifth Bureau director’s office.Bruce, director of the Fifth Bureau, was plowing through a mound of paperwork when the intrusion and cheeky remark caught him off guard. His instinct was to lash out, but the words softened upon recognizing the intruder."It seems that you, Director Wolfe from Six Ministries, are

    No sooner had the echo of the blast faded than Noah burst through the office door, his face streaked with soot. “Director Wallace, we’re in trouble! Someone’s blown the gate with bombs—they’re attacking us!”An attack, here?At Noah’s words, Leonard and Bruce’s faces turned stone-cold, their eyes flashing with anger.Did the attackers know where they were?This was the Somer Fifth Bureau headquarters of Nation Six, the center for dealing with practitioners—a place even the brave did not dare trespass.Yet, here was someone brazen enough to launch an assault.Were they incredibly brave or suicidally foolish? Or worse, had they come prepared?“We need to check it out—now!” Bruce barked, all business.Leonard nodded, ready for action. “I’ve got men with me. If you need them, you got them.”“Let’s move!”The two men, along with Noah, raced toward the door.Outside, the scene was worse than they had feared.The Drako Nimbus Alps gate was chaos incarnate—gunfire non-stop, smoke t

    The Repeat Offender Detention Area?At Bruce’s words, Leonard’s brow creased with concern.As the director of Six Ministries, Leonard was well aware of the Fifth Bureau’s Repeat Offender Detention Zone and the dangerous individuals it held—practitioners, each with powers beyond the norm.These practitioners of mystical arts, when they fell foul of the law, fell under the Fifth Bureau's jurisdiction—akin to a special police force for the supernaturally endowed.“So, are you saying they’ve come to spring their fellow practitioners from jail?” Leonard pressed, understanding the gravity of the situation.Anyone bold enough to mount a military strike in the heart of a nation’s capital had to be either mad or supremely confident.Such recklessness could bring catastrophic consequences.Only practitioners who were accustomed to looking down on worldly matters from their lofty heights would dare to attempt it.“Is this the work of practitioners, then?”Bruce, too, was piecing together

    Jeremiah Terra, from one of the eight great families of the warlord gentry?In a heartbeat, Leonard’s expression twisted in shock.The Hansens, Pallases, Morgans, Gordons, Terras—these were the key players in a doomed conspiracy to overthrow Fred's rule in Somer by launching the so-called Operation God of War.At the heart of this turmoil was none other than Gustavo Hansen, the mastermind pulling the strings.Yet, despite the strict watch on the conspiring families, Jeremiah of the Terras stood out. He was locked away in Nation Six’s infamous Repeat Offender Detention Area.Why was that? Because Jeremiah, defeated in a clash at the Capital City, showed no remorse. Worse still, after Fred vanished, Jeremiah joined forces with the Gaunts and the Fraleys, handing over Tyne and Stellar to foreign powers—a blatant stab in the nation's back.Leonard knew well though that beyond Jeremiah's vile deeds was a warrior of unmatched might—a tier above the secular warlords and certainly at sup

    Gustafson had not been Somerland’s God of War for a long time.However, he had gone through a lot of training lately, especially in terms of mental and fighting spirit. He was no longer the same person he was when he first faced Fred.Therefore, Gustafson could filter out all of Marshal's arrogant words almost immediately. The only thing Gustafson cared about was the fact that Marshal was not a warrior and that he despised them."Aren't you a warrior?"Gustafson observed Marshal as he processed his words carefully.There was no doubt.Judging from Marshal's words and presence, there was no way he could be a Sunriser or Koria Descent—he was a full-fledged Somerland cultivator.His aura, in particular, was almost the same as a warlord of Somer Descent.However, Gustafson could also tell from Marshal's confidence that he was not lying.This made Gustafson blurt out his next words. "An Ancient Warlord?"“Oh?"Marshal was already preparing to attack, but he smiled after Gustafson

    After all that he had been through as Somerland’s God of War, his hostility toward Fred had long since disappeared, replaced by a sense of respect.He respected Fred for having contributed so much to Somerland.At the same time, Gustafson's desire to compete with Mark never faded!Gustafson thought, ‘Lord Great One, will you wait for me at the top? However... If I can't even get past this guy, how can I climb higher? How can I surpass you?’For a moment, that tinge of regret made Gustafson roar in anger. He jumped up and stood in front of Marshal again."Oh? Can you still stand up? Haha, interesting… Hm?"Marshal was about to make a jibe when he saw Gustafson standing up to face him again. Instead, his look of amusement turned into a frown.He noticed Gustafson’s eyes were looking at him, but there was no acknowledgment of his existence in the young man’s eyes!Indeed!None at all!Gustafson was looking at Marshal but his thoughts were thousands of miles away, fixated on Fred

    Marciella walking away did not bode well with the giant snake. Marciella was its food! How could it accept that its food had escaped?Marciella had not moved far yet.

    Fred was annoyed by the giant snake's arrogant tone. Fred squinted his eyes at the snake and asked in confusion, "Why are you making that face?"“Huh?"The giant snake was shocked. He thought that Fred would submit to him, but to his surprise, Fred was not shaken at all.The snake was about to lose his temper.“Dirty snake, haven't I made myself clear enough? I think you are probably sleep-talking if you want me to hand over my people to you..." Fred said impatiently.At this moment…Feeling that it was being ridiculed, the snake said suddenly, "You punk, this is the first time anyone spoke to me this way. What is your name?"“Me?"Fred was stunned subconsciously, not knowing what the snake wanted. Suddenly, he understood.“Did you want to know my name so you can remember me, bow down before me, and become my follower? Sure, I’ll give you that chance!"He was adding fuel to the fire. The giant snake almost spat out blood in anger!"What? You want me to follow an immature bei

    Huh!?Putting aside Marciella, even Fred could not hide his shock as a giant snake appeared from under the water!A giant snake!How could it be!?Fred's eyes widened at the sheer size of the snake. "A Giant Snake… Is this the so-called River God?"Moreover, the size was humongous. The snake must be at least ten stories high!What a huge snake!Fred finally understood why he felt a powerful force under the water!There was a sharp glint in the giant snake’s eyes! That was the blinking light from time to time!"Who comes here? Are you from the village? Who do you plan to sacrifice to me this time?" As soon as the giant snake spoke, Fred realized that this was not the first time it had done this.The snake seemed familiar with the ritual process. Obviously, the villagers had witnessed this giant snake before. This was the meeting between the two sides! Fred felt uncomfortable at this. As for the giant snake, it felt bemused when it saw Fred. The snake had never seen Fred befo

As soon as the tree was hit by the seismic fist, it fell immediately and the whole tree split neatly in two!Marciella was dumbfounded!Although she knew how powerful Fred was, to witness his power was a different thing entirely!"Master Fred, your power is insane!"Marciella could not help but applaud.Fred seemed indifferent, as though he had no feeling at all about this."Is it? Why do you think so?"He looked so indifferent.For Ancient Martial Arts, things did not get any simpler than this!"You’re so strong. Anyway, I don’t doubt you anymore..." Marciella sighed, suddenly feeling very sad. "This is the reward of being educated. If we were more knowledgeable, we wouldn’t be so clueless.”"Haha, if you can't solve your issues, your descendants can work harder," Fred said with a wink.Marciella said, "Mr. Fred, I needed to ask you something!

    What Fred said aroused her curiosity."What does it look like when you offer a sacrifice?"Fred knew he could not speak of this matter. Sure enough, Marciella felt a little downcast after Fred said the words. She did not know why Fred would say such a thing. Suddenly, Fred felt bad about it.He coughed and said, "Don't think too much about it... I just want to find a clue. Maybe we could find a solution. Why does it never rain in your village?""Huh?"Marciella's eyes, which were still a little dejected, suddenly realized what was important and asked hurriedly, "Mr. Fred, are you saying that the reason why it never rains in our village is because someone is behind it?"Although Fred was unwilling to admit it, he could not help but nod. "Yes, this is exactly what you thought!""For real?!"Marciella felt hopeful again when she heard this. She said hastily, "The thing you asked about is pretty simple. You can just check out that place!""That place?"Fred turned around to see w

    Marciella found herself nodding in agreement with Fred's harsh assessment. "You're spot on," she said. "That woman is nothing but vile!"Seeing Marciella's reaction, a rare smile crossed Fred's face as he nodded back. "Glad you see it my way," he said.What caught Fred off guard was the villagers' reaction. One by one, their faces turned ashen with despair.It seemed to them that nothing could be worse than the predicament they were facing. The absence of the witch spelled doom for the village—it was like their last shred of hope had vanished. They had all put their faith in her to charm the River God into blessing them with rain, which would have brought some peace to their troubled lives. However, now their chances seemed to have dried up just like their fields. Fred stood there, his face a mask of serenity amidst the chaos.In the moments that followed, the village chief was a picture of despair, his only option was to send everyone home while he racked his brain for a backup pl

    "What?"Fred did not even have time to blink before the witch suddenly made a move.It was like a bomb went off.Kaboom!Then, she was dead!Fred dusted off his hands, even surprising himself with his lack of tolerance for the witch.Now, though, he had a real headache. He had planned to clear the air with the witch and lay out the past so everyone would know the full picture.He thought that might just turn things around.The situation changed when she vanished, and Fred's plans were completely derailed. Then again, changing the villagers' minds was not going to be a walk in the park anyway. They were pretty set in their ways, thanks to all the stuff they had been fed.As such, just talking it out might not cut it. Heck, it could even mess with history!With the witch out of the equation, Fred figured he might as well try a different tactic. Maybe if he took out the guy in the cloak and worked his own magic to bring some rain, it could save a lot of hassle. The more he thoug

    "No way!"The witch bristled with defiance. She could not accept that she was no match for Fred.As she noticed Fred's focus was locked on her, a sly idea popped up in her mind.Before she could act on it, though, she found herself pinned against the wall by Fred in a flash...Her face contorted in disbelief. She was pinned so tightly that she could not even move!The witch was completely overpowered, her heart racing with panic.How could he be so much stronger than her?Fred, on the other hand, seemed unfazed."What's going through your head? You don't seriously think you can take me on, do you?" Fred asked, his voice laced with skepticism.The witch felt utterly trapped, as if at any second, Fred might just finish her off."Look, I messed up, okay? Can we not do this? I'm old, just a pile of brittle bones—I can't take this kind of rough treatment!" the witch pleaded with Fred, trying a new tactic to get through to him.Fred was not falling for it. He looked at her with a

    "Heh, I caught on to you a while back, you know. You've been tailing me, and I'm pretty sure you're here for me. Plus, you don't have the look of someone from our village. That means you are an outsider, and I'm your target, right? Listen, man, we don't have any beef with each other, so why are you sticking your nose where it doesn't belong?"The witch had sensed the raw power rolling off Fred, and it was enough to send shivers down her spine!At that moment, she knew that challenging Fred was not going to be a walk in the park! If she had spotted him earlier in the forest, it would not have been good news for her. For starters, she had no clue how many tricks Fred had up his sleeve, and if he took her down, she and her buddy would be toast.However, the witch was not about to let Fred take her out without a fight! She racked her brain and finally settled on one strategy!She would try to sweet-talk him, hoping Fred would fall for her words just like everyone else, and fall into he
