Fortunately, most evil creatures that can cross the Boundary River are only True‑Demon rank. Nevertheless, the Boundary‑Realm River Region is enormous. Its deeper reaches are barely touched by any major forces, and rumors even speak of Evil‑Creature Kings dwelling there.Albert stared up at the distant Boundary River, his eyes filled with shock and wonder. Had this thriving yet deadly land come into being entirely because of it?Every few years, however, the Boundary River suffers a major outburst. Vast surges of its waters pour down from the heavens, flooding the region. Even Holy‑Spirit‑Tier evil creatures may cross over in the chaos, bringing about the Boundary‑Realm River Region’s most terrifying crisis.At those words, Albert suddenly recalled Thomas’s warning before their departure and asked at once, “Is this the so‑called Black‑Rain Demon Calamity?”Angel nodded, her expression turning grave. “The waters of the Boundary River descend from the sky, turning into months‑long torre

They had only just entered the Boundary‑Realm River Region and carried no great treasures. No rogue cultivator would be crazy enough to attack a flying ship flying the banner of the Martin Sovereign Clan.“Could it be the Langman Sovereign Clan?” Albert’s mind raced. Back in the Cave‑Heaven Secret Realm, he had made bitter enemies of the Langman Sovereign Clan. The conflict had nearly sparked a royal‑rank battle between their God‑Tiger King and Thomas. It was only the arrival of the Langman Clan’s Heavenly‑Phoenix King and Louis, the lord of the Dragon‑Bloodline Branch, that had defused the situation.With the Langman Sovereign Clan’s power, they could easily send such a force to ambush him.“Or could it be Patty from the Bruce Sovereign Clan?” That deranged woman seemed to harbor deep hatred toward his whole family. If she spotted an opening, she would not hesitate to strike to kill.Both factions had clear motives and suspicions. Besides, the attackers had concealed their true ident

“Suppress them!” The 6‑Star God‑Tier cultivator wove hand seals. His six God‑Tier Platforms thundered with earth‑shaking roars. Surging pillars of energy crashed onto the golden pagoda, which instantly burst forth ten thousand streaks of golden light. Its mouth slowly descended, forcibly crushing both the Glazed Light Sword and the shadowy sword‑dragon blocking its path.Then the pagoda tilted, its opening locking onto Albert, Emily and Tina as they fled through the air.Deep within its maw, golden light churned and rumbled, as if a devastating blow was being prepared.A few breaths later, the 6‑Star God‑Tier expert extended a finger and spoke coldly, “Heaven‑Gold Mystic Water!”Massive golden radiance shot out from the pagoda’s opening. The light carried overwhelming sharpness, yet it flowed like liquid gold, forming what looked like a golden river.Cutting through the void, the golden river resembled a ten‑thousand‑li golden greatsword, tearing the firmament apart.At this point, th

Joseph spoke. "I tried to probe her, but she concealed herself perfectly and gave nothing away. Still, guesses get us nowhere. Short of catching them red‑handed, how can we hold the Bruce Supreme Clan accountable?"Albert nodded slightly. "Be that as it may, we have to treat her as a suspect. We’ll stay extra cautious if we cross paths with her in the future."Cold glint flashed in his eyes. "If it really was her, I will make her pay for this debt when the chance comes."The ambush had been deadly. Their enemies had come fully prepared. If he and Emily had not worked together to buy time, they would have been captured long before the Dragontooth Guards arrived.Joseph nodded. That madwoman Patty was definitely someone they needed to watch out for.Nearby, the Dragontooth Guards held their position while several figures streaked through the air and landed before the group.Leading them was none other than Vance, the Commander of the Dragontooth Guards.Beside him stood several familiar

Yet he had not expected Albert to be so hard‑fooled.“And that girl from back then.”Neil caught sight of Emily, and his eyes sharpened at once. He could sense the soul‑power ripples emanating from within her — the signature only a God‑Realm expert possessed.In other words, Emily had broken through into the God‑Realm.Back when they had last met, Emily’s Heart of Light had been ignited, and she had barely clung to life. How could she have turned that disaster into fortune and advanced to the God‑Realm?Neil’s gaze flickered. He could spot the hostility in Albert’s and Emily’s eyes. They had clearly never forgotten their old grudge.Irritation welled up inside Neil. He had never imagined those two insignificant youngsters would rise so far.He had known Albert was the Third Young Master of the Dragontooth Branch back then, yet Albert’s power had been far too weak. In Neil’s estimate, it would take ages before Albert grew influential enough to hold real sway within the Dragontooth Bran
