As everything had already ended, Fred's trip to Capital City also came to an end. Hunter, who was specially invited by Fred for Windsor's sake, was naturally ready to depart and return to Sea City. However, on the way out, Hunter came in front of Fred, looking like he was about to say something. Seeing this, Fred instantly asked curiously, "Do you have something to say, Mr. Walls?" "Mr. Hoffman… I don't know if you still remember our conversation about Ancient Medicine some time ago?" Hunter opened his mouth after thinking about it. Ancient Medicine? Fred nodded slightly and said, ''Of course, I do. I remember that you said that Ancient Medicine is very magical, and the efficacy of it is far beyond the explanation of science. There are even techniques of needling that one can use that have the ability to cure. It's nothing short of miracles." "Yes! That's it!" Hunter immediately nodded his head vigorously, then took a deep breath and said, "Mr. Hoffman, I know that
"I'm sure you all know why we Fralies and Gaunts invited you all to be here today, right?" At the Gaunt family's home in Capital City, the living room was full of high-profile people. The people in charge of the families that had a reputation in Capital City were seated here. It was all because the head of the powerful Gaunt family, Gorde, and the head of the centuries-old Fraley family, Yorick, had jointly sent out invitations yesterday to summon them. The purpose of making them come here was to unite the power of all their families for a joint crusade against Fred, the fellow known as the revered Great One. That way, they could avenge the Gaunt family's late main heir, David, as well as the Fraley family's late sons, Wyatt and Elliot! "Mr. Fraley, since we're here, we naturally know that the reason you gathered us here today is to crusade against the one named Fred!" Hearing Gorde speak, one person slowly got up and said, "However, Fred isn't an ordinary person. Not onl
A white-haired old man also rose up defiantly and grunted. That little son of a bitch called Fred is just relying on the title of some bullshit revered Great One, acting so lawlessly and recklessly! Does he really think that no one can teach him a lesson? I don't believe it! If you all want to teach this little son of a bitch a lesson, count me in!" "He's a person who oversells his name and reputation! Relying on the strength that has been boasting, he disregards so many of our powerful families in Capital City. He's already courting death. Not to mention, he dared to make himself an enemy of the God of War, which is an even greater offense! This person's death is the only way to quell the anger of the entire Capital City!" Another person, following suit, rose up and grunted. With these three people taking the lead, the other family heads did not dare to lag behind. After all, nowadays, the matter of Gustafson becoming the God of War was already an established fact! The Gau
Who was it?Almost at the instant Fred walked in, whether it was the Gaunts, Fralies, or other family heads present, each and every one of them immediately furrowed their brows. Rio, who was standing beside his father, Gorde, even immediately said, "Who are you? Do you know where you currently stand?" "The Gaunts' home, right?" Fred laughed."Since you know that this place belongs to the Gaunts, how dare you trespass into this place?" Rio immediately snorted coldly but could not help but have a strange feeling in his heart as if he had seen Fred somewhere before. After all, Rio had only seen Fred from afar at the Drako Nimbus Alps. As it was too far from the place where Fred and Gustafson were fighting at that time, Rio could not recognize the person in front of him as Fred at all.Due to this, Rio soon shrugged off the strange feeling in his heart and said once again, "I'm in a good mood today. So, I'll give you a chance to hurry up and get out of here!" With that, R
Instantly, a group of people rushed over from all directions and surrounded Fred. Rio, on the other hand, still maintained his arrogant attitude. His head was slightly raised as he looked down at Fred and sneered, "Kid, you were given a chance just now but you didn't take it! Now, I won't be handing out any more chances!" He also deliberately looked at the people around him and laughed. "With the Gaunts' status in Capital City, wanting to make someone disappear without a word is definitely an easy thing to do. Don't you all think so?" The moment these words were said, everyone knew that Rio was clearly talking to them. After all, although they had previously said that Fred did not know what was good for him, which one of them had not thought of taking advantage of the situation to step on the Gaunts and Fralies after learning the outcome of the battle at the Drako Nimbus Alps?It was just that before these thoughts could be put into action, the news of the official reco
Almost in an instant, everyone present was stunned by Fred's hand! It happened in full view of everyone! In the middle of the Gaunt family's home, in front of so many family heads, and crucially, in front of the Gaunt family's head, Gorde! Fred actually destroyed Rio's hand. That man was the only remaining heir of the Gaunt family! What an outrage! What guts! What arrogance! "You seek death!!!"Gorde had already lost a son. At this moment, his only remaining son, Rio, actually had his hand rendered useless in front of him. This caused Gorde to be unable to suppress the anger in his heart, and he directly roared in rage as he rushed over. He wanted Fred to die!He wanted to personally tear apart Fred, the little son of a bitch, who dared to act recklessly in the Gaunt family's home and who dared to hurt his son Rio in front of him! However... Just when Gorde had just pushed away the crowd to come in front of Fred, the latter raised one hand. He delivered a slap
"You guys… What are you all standing there for?" Although Rio's fingers were ruined, everything else was still intact. At this moment, when he saw that his father had been sent flying by Fred's slap, he finally forced himself to endure the severe pain. He looked resentfully at the Gaunts' men who had been frozen in place because of Fred's two slaps and shouted at them.After Rio shouted at them, he looked upward toward his father’s equal, the head of the Fraley family. He yelled at Yorick, "Mr. Fraley, are you going to continue to sit back and do nothing?" With these words, Yorick finally came back to his senses! Although Fred came to the Gaunt household to fight Gorde and his son, the Fralies were in the same boat as the Gaunts. He was counting on uniting with the Gaunts to crusade against Fred, who killed his sons, Wyatt and Elliot. At this moment, Rio's fingers were ruined, and Gorde was slapped twice. If he still stood by and did nothing, how could he justify it? I
Fred! He was actually the revered Great One, Fred! When Fred declared his identity, the heads of each family present reacted. At this moment, each and every one of them was sweating profusely, their hair standing on end. That was right!The reason why they had gathered here was to flatter the Gaunts and Fralies, as well as to join the crusade against Fred. That man had killed David from the Gaunt family and Wyatt and Elliot from the Fraley family. No matter how ferociously they yelled here just now, talking about how they were going to crusade against Fred and how they were going to kill anyone related to Fred, they definitely did not want to come face-to-face with Fred for real! After all, Fred was a martial artist! He was an existence whose strength far surpassed that of ordinary people, similar to that of a superhero!Even if they thought that Fred defeating Gustafson in the battle at the Drako Nimbus Alps was just fake news or that Fred's so-called title as th
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. She reluctantly looked back at Fred.She did not know how Fred would handle the River God. She could only hope Fred would be okay!When Fred saw that she had left, he geared up, rubbing his palms in glee. He had an eager look on his face, which confused the giant snake.It was the snake’s first time meeting a man like Fred!How strange indeed!At this time!Suddenly, Fred said with hostility etched on his face, "Hey, Big Snake, what are you going to do now?"The snake's attention was entirely focused on him, which seemed off to Fred."What I’m going to do?"The giant snake fixated its eyes on Fred. It felt that it could handle a human like Fred easily.“I’m going to kill you with one bite! How dare you look down on me like this!"The giant snake rushed toward Fred fiercely at a speed so fast that no one could
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
Fred was going to risk it all to open this girl's eyes!The force from the punch was extraordinary! 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 if our luck was changed ju
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
