Roger had always been the one in charge of the White Night Gate’s operations in this part of California.Even after watching Hudson casually slap a second-rank grandmaster to death, Roger’s expression barely changed. He simply replied in a calm, indifferent tone, “If you say so, then sure.”“You were pretty impressive before,” Hudson said with a faint smile.As Hudson walked toward him, Roger smiled back. “Did it feel good?”Hudson nodded. “Yeah. It felt great.”“But in the end… I still have to thank you.”Roger didn’t fully understand what he meant, but he didn’t bother asking. Instead, he seized the moment and struck. A red talisman appeared in his hand and shot forward.Just as it was about to stick to Hudson, Hudson caught it effortlessly, flipped his wrist, and sent it flying back.The talisman hit Roger, and instantly burst into flames.Fire engulfed him in seconds.A scream echoed through the quiet courtyard before his body collapsed to the ground, motionless. Hudson watched qu

There was a soft knock at the door.Hudson opened his eyes. The moment his vision cleared, he froze for a second, then quickly sat up.“You… why are you here?”He was genuinely surprised. He had assumed it would be Ivory, but instead, Shienna stood at the door.“She asked me to come,” Shienna said calmly.Hudson was instantly speechless.He had thought Hyan was just joking earlier. After all, what woman would willingly share the man she loved with others?Now he realized he had been wrong. Whatever Ivory was thinking… he couldn’t quite understand it.Last Updated : 2026-03-27

For a long time, Hudson had never been the kind of person who abused his strength to bully others. Even when dealing with arrogant people who liked to provoke fights just because they had a little power, he would usually give them a chance. Only those who refused to back down, or didn’t know when to stop, would meet their end at his hands.Even against the Nine Great Sects, which were known for their power and influence, Hudson felt no fear.If the disciples they sent to Los Angeles kept to themselves, he wouldn’t care which sect they came from. But if they went looking for trouble, then he wouldn’t hesitate.If their sects had failed to teach them properly, then he’d do it himself.And his way of teaching was simple.Knowing Hudson’s nature, Dein didn’t press the issue any further. He understood that Hudson wasn’t someone who sought conflict, but he would never back down from one either.After ending the call, Hudson turned to Hansel.“What’s been happening at Dragon Valley lately?”

Leron stood frozen, staring at Damian’s limp body hanging in Hudson’s grip like a rag doll. He couldn’t believe what he was seeing.Just moments ago, when Damian had been caught, Leron had assumed he was holding back, letting the situation escalate so he’d have a better excuse to act. After all, Damian was a half-step grandmaster. Dealing with some random young fighter from outside their sect should have been effortless.But now… Leron realized how wrong he had been.It wasn’t that Damian didn’t want to break free.He simply couldn’t.If a half-step grandmaster could be crushed so easily, then Hudson’s strength had to be at least at the grandmaster level, if not higher.As that realization sank in, panic flooded Leron’s eyes.One reason was obvious, Damian was dead. That meant there was no going back. They were now enemies, and Hudson might kill them all to keep this from getting out.The other reason was even worse.If Hudson really was a grandmaster… then none of them were walking o

Even though Hudson had warned Shienna to cover her face to avoid drawing attention from the sect disciples, her beauty wasn’t limited to her looks.Her figure alone was enough to turn heads among ordinary people.But for the disciples of the major sects, what truly caught their attention wasn’t just her appearance, it was something deeper.Her physique.Someone chosen and trained by the White Night Gate was never ordinary. Hudson had already noticed it before, Shienna possessed a rare physique.For martial artists, this kind of physique was extremely valuable. Not only did it allow her to progress faster in her own cultivation, but for male martial artists, pairing with someone like her, using certain dual cultivation methods, could significantly boost their strength.Unlike relying on pills, which often came with side effects and unstable foundations, cultivating with someone like Shienna brought real benefits without drawbacks.To Hudson, her physique wasn’t particularly special.
