The Enigmatic Son-in-law
Urban
10
Maximus Crownguard hails from an unknown origin shrouded in mystery, known to be of humble beginnings as the son-in-law of a second-rate family.
"Ma, where is Alexa?" he asked as he walked into the living room.
The woman glared at Max and replied sharply, "Where else do you think my daughter would go other than work?"
------
Feeling a strange sense of foreboding, he nervously opened the message, but all it said was, "[Help]."
He looked at his mother-in-law and coldly said, "Ma, where is Alexa?" as he exuded a deadly aura.
The old woman didn't know why she felt a sense of danger when she saw the cold look in Maximus' eyes, so she blurted out without realizing, "She's at Chable Star Entertainment, she signed a contract with Mr. Chen."
------
"Who are you?!" Mr. Chen screamed in fear. The man turned and walked slowly towards Mr. Chen, saying, "It doesn't matter who I am. What matters is I will end your evil deeds."
Mr. Chen's eyes widened as he saw the man's cold face and felt as if he was facing the God of Death. Suddenly, he felt excruciating pain in his right hand, realizing the man had crushed it.
------
"No problem, Mr. Crownguard. But which company are you planning to acquire?" the man inquired again.
With a joyous smile, Max replied smoothly, "I want to acquire Chable Star Entertainment."

Chapter: Making him my Servant
As their fists remained locked, Caleb laughed, dark energy pulsating from his body like tendrils of smoke."Is this really your full power, Maximus?" he taunted. "You feel weaker than usual. Did you skip lunch or something?"Max smirked, unfazed. "How could I eat lunch, Caleb? You decided to cause chaos in Pampanga first thing in the morning."Caleb chuckled. "Ah, my bad. I forgot you had cooking duties."Max sighed dramatically. "See? This is all your fault. And for that, I'll make sure you serve me once this is over."Before Caleb could respond, they both vanished, their figures flickering like lightning.BOOM!They reappeared mid-air, their fists colliding once more, sending out shockwaves of golden and black energy. The force shattered nearby stone pillars, and the ground beneath them cracked from the sheer intensity of their clash.CRACK! BOOM!Each exchange was blindingly fast, their forms barely visible to an ordinary eye. Max launched a high kick—Caleb blocked it with his fore

Chapter: Battle of Transformation
Caleb laughed with pride, his voice echoing off the dark chamber's walls. "Magnificent, isn't it?" He spread his arms wide, as if presenting his greatest masterpiece. "I've been working on this little experiment for years. It doesn't even have a proper name yet, and you—" His grin stretched wider, eyes gleaming with cruel excitement. "You, Maximus, will be the first to witness its power firsthand."Max's expression darkened, his jaw tightening. "Tch. You really have a habit of pissing me off, Caleb."Before he could say anything more—"Attack!"Caleb's voice boomed like thunder, and without hesitation, Alexa lunged.She moved like a phantom—fast, precise, and merciless. There was no hesitation in her strike, no warmth in her usually expressive eyes. They were empty, void of life.Max's instincts screamed at him to block, to counter, to fight back—but he couldn't. Instead, he sidestepped just in time, feeling the sharp gust of wind as Alexa's fist barely missed his face."Tch." His eye

Chapter: Stalker
The elder's eyes narrowed, his expression darkening as he finally unleashed his full power. His aura flared violently, black energy swirling around him like a raging storm."You're too arrogant," he spat, his sharp gaze fixed on Max, who was calmly walking toward him, completely unbothered."Since you dared step into this place, I'll make sure you never leave alive."Max sighed lightly, as if already growing bored.Before the elder could react, Max vanished.His eyes widened in alarm.A split second later—THUD!A devastating force sank into his stomach. His breath caught in his throat, his body frozen in disbelief. Blood burst from his mouth as he stumbled back, his knees buckling.Pain flooded his entire being. He didn't even see the attack.He tried to move, but his body refused to respond. Then, it hit him—his core was shattered.His cultivation… was completely destroyed.With just one punch.His mind spiraled into chaos. 'How? How could this be possible?'But Max had already lost

Chapter: Formations
The leading elder cast a cold glance at Claud before shifting his sharp, unwavering gaze to Max. His expression remained impassive, but his voice carried the weight of authority."You have some nerve causing trouble in my palace."Max tilted his head slightly before flashing a smirk."Causing trouble?" He let out a short laugh, then shook his head. "Old man, if your master hadn't kidnapped my wife, I wouldn't be here. And who knows? You all might've lived a little longer. Blame that old dog of yours for forcing my hand."Claud's face twisted in fury at the disrespect toward his revered teacher."You dare speak that way to Master?! You have no idea who you're dealing with!" Claud spat, ignoring the pain in his body. "He is the strongest practitioner of the Dark Arts! You'd better start thinking of ways to beg for mercy because once my Master makes his move, you won't have a chance!"His words were punctuated by another violent cough, more blood staining his already tattered robes.Max

Chapter: It's been a while
The helicopter's rotors slowly came to a stop as it settled on the open grounds before the dark mansion. Max stepped out, his boots pressing against the hardened earth, his eyes immediately surveying the ominous structure before him. A suffocating darkness hung in the air, thick and oppressive, wrapping around the mansion like a living entity. The aura of death and malice was palpable—so much so that even the wind refused to disturb the stillness.Max smirked. 'How dramatic.'As he approached the large iron gate, it creaked and groaned, swinging open on its own as if extending an invitation. The darkness beyond seemed to pulse, alive and waiting. Max narrowed his eyes. He could sense them.Before he could take another step, figures emerged from the shadows—more than a dozen men, all exuding a thick, inky-black aura. Their eyes glowed with a sinister light, their bodies brimming with forbidden martial arts energy. They moved with deadly precision, surrounding him in a wide formation, t

Chapter: Reckoning
Max answered the call, and the moment he did, he heard Robert's weak voice on the other end."Ma-Master Max… there's a problem at the villa," Robert said, his tone strained. "We were attacked… Black-clad martial artists with dark auras—just like the ones from the tournament. They… they took Alexa."Max's grip on his phone tightened."They were too strong… We had no chance," Robert admitted, frustration and exhaustion lacing his words."I understand," Max replied firmly. Without another word, he ended the call and slid the phone back into his pocket.Leon and Alice immediately took notice of the shift in his expression. Leon stepped closer. "Something wrong?" he asked.Max let out a short exhale before flashing a smirk, though his eyes were filled with a cold, deadly intent. "Looks like I was the old man's target all along," he said. "These creatures were just a distraction. His real plan was taking Alexa."Leon narrowed his eyes. "So, what's the plan now?"Max's smirk faded into a cal
