Bang!The door to the room suddenly burst open.Javon was startled and instinctively raised his hand, almost summoning the Abyss Carver. However, the moment he saw who had entered, his movement immediately stopped.The person standing at the door was actually Elmer. Not only that, she was even dragging along an old man covered in blood. Judging from the aura he emitted, the man was clearly a fifth-level Celestial Stage cultivator."What happened?" Javon asked with a strange expression.Elmer smiled sweetly. "I saw that you were almost done learning the technique, so I deliberately found someone for you to practice on. It just so happens that this person has an Aether Ring."After saying that, she tossed the old man in front of Javon.Bruk!The old man's body slammed heavily onto the floor."Sir, spare me! Please spare my life!" The moment he touched the ground, the old man immediately cried out in terror.His body was covered in wounds, and his dantian had already been sealed by Elmer

Meanwhile, at the Hernandez Family."Patriarch, Javon Forger has been missing for more than a month. We have no idea whether he's been captured or has already escaped.""Patriarch, I think those eight great families secretly joined forces and took that bastard away. He drained nearly ninety percent of the Hernandez Family's assets. We should demand compensation from them!"Inside the Hernandez Family's main hall, several elders spoke with voices full of anger while looking at Alvaro, who was seated in the main seat. However, he remained calm, his face showing not the slightest emotion."The eight great families don't have the ability to capture Javon. That child has most likely escaped already. Besides, he's not even from the Ciderion Continent." Alvaro's voice was heavy.Although the eight great families were considered top-tier powers on the Ciderion Continent, they were still far below the three superpowers that ruled the entire continent.The Hernandez Family was one of those thre

Hearing that question, Alvaro immediately crawled forward and knelt at Javon's feet. "M-Mister Forger...! Please spare us!" he shouted with a face full of despair. "Do you really intend to kill all of us? Can't you leave us a way to live?"Previously, he had thought that as long as he managed to leave the Hernandez Family, he and Mateo could still build a new force. After all, both of them were top experts. However, reality shattered his hopes.They had not even traveled far from the family territory when Javon had already caught up to them and captured them. The two of them had absolutely no ability to resist. In fact, Mateo had lost an arm while trying to fight back.Hearing Alvaro's words, the surrounding elders instantly froze. Their faces turned gloomy. Although they were unwilling to believe it, the truth was already laid bare before their eyes.Their Patriarch had truly abandoned the entire family just to save his own life. At that moment, their faith completely crumbled.Javon

When he heard the woman's answer, Alvaro's chest nearly exploded with rage.How could he not understand the hidden meaning behind those words?He pointed at the woman with a flushed face. "The Valtieri Family is truly shameless! I'm not even dead yet, and you're already eyeing my southern Nexus Core territory!""So what?" the woman replied without the slightest trace of guilt. "The Hernandez Family's power has already collapsed. Rather than letting that territory be fought over by the eight great families later, wouldn't it be better to hand it over to the Valtieri Family?""You... you cunning and shameless woman!" Alvaro gritted his teeth in anger.Unfortunately, he had no way to refute her. Because what the woman said was indeed the truth. After suffering a series of blows, the Hernandez Family had already lost its former glory and no longer possessed the strength to defend all of its territory.Looking at the Hernandez Family's current condition, their destruction was only a matter

"Javon Forger! Kill me already!" Mateo looked up from the ground with eyes filled with hatred, as though he wished he could tear his opponent apart with nothing but his gaze.Javon did not respond. He landed calmly in front of the man before looking down at him expressionlessly. "Any last words?""I curse you...!""Tch!"The curse had not even been completed when Javon's palm struck Mateo's head, shattering it instantly. Without wasting any time, he immediately sent his true energy into his opponent's body and executed the Soul Extraction Technique and the Aether Release Technique in the sequence he had already mastered.A few moments later, Javon slowly opened his eyes. Behind him, the Devouring Overhaul Ring had now lit up three crimson ring patterns. Even so, his true energy had not increased at all because his cultivation had already reached its peak limit."Javon, did you already kill Alvaro?" Elmer asked in surprise when she saw the three glowing crimson patterns on the ring beh
