C70: What If I Refuse?
After accompanying Iris back to Raven & Radiance and making sure she had settled into her work, Veyron quietly left.He didn't return home. Instead, he hailed a taxi and headed toward the hospital to visit Helena.The journey was peaceful at first. The city scenery drifted past the windows while the driver hummed softly to himself. Then—SCREECH!The taxi came to an abrupt halt. Both men jolted forward from the sudden stop.Veyron frowned slightly. "What happened?"The driver didn't answer immediately. His face had turned pale and his hands trembled on the steering wheel as he pointed ahead."S-Sir..."Veyron followed his gaze. A white van sat motionless across the road, completely blocking their path.The narrow street was already quiet and deserted. Now it looked even more ominous. Before anyone could react further—BANG!The van doors flew open. Several men dressed in black poured out. Then more appeared. And more.Within seconds, the taxi was completely surrounded. The driver's fa
C71: Small Fry
Thirty minutes later, the van rolled to a stop outside an abandoned warehouse on the outskirts of the city.Veyron stepped out and glanced around at the broken windows. Rust-covered metal sheets. Cracked concrete floors. Not even a proper security system.His brows twitched slightly. To be honest, he was disappointed.After all the drama of sending armed men to "invite" him, he had expected something more impressive.At the very least, a luxury villa. Or a private estate. Instead, they brought him to an abandoned warehouse.Was this the trend nowadays?"This way, Mr. Blackthorne," The scar-faced guard gestured forward.Compared to earlier, his attitude was apparently more cautious.Veyron shoved his hands into his pockets and followed lazily.Soon, they entered the warehouse. Three familiar figures were already waiting inside.The moment Veyron saw them, the little interest he had immediately vanished."Oh." His eyelids drooped. "So it's you three."His tone was so disappointed that t
C72: Unworthy Opponent
"What did you just say?" Julian laughed coldly. "A small fry?"His eyes were filled with ridicule. "Do you even understand the kind of person you're about to face?"Veyron merely glanced at him. His expression remained indifferent.Frankly speaking, this so-called grandmaster was nothing more than an unfamiliar name to him.Over the years, he had encountered countless experts, assassins, warlords, and martial artists.Compared to those monsters, Grandmaster Orion was hardly worth mentioning.However, seeing Veyron remain silent, Julian misunderstood completely. A smug smile spread across his face."What? Lost your courage already?" He sneered. "I thought you were fearless."His eyes gradually turned cold. The humiliation from that day surfaced once more in his mind.His broken guards. The foot pressing down on his head. Every memory was like a knife stabbing into his pride. His expression twisted."You stepped on my head. You humiliated me in front of everyone." His voice dropped dang
C73: Heavenly Origin Palm
"So you had better watch your words." Orion's voice grew colder with every syllable. "Otherwise, your death will be a miserable one."A chilling aura spread throughout the warehouse. His expression was so dark it seemed capable of dripping ink.Throughout his decades in the martial world, Orion had encountered countless opponents.Some were arrogant. Some were foolish. Others overestimated their abilities.Yet no one had ever dared to dismiss him so completely. Not a single one.Even those who challenged him eventually learned fear when they faced his strength.They begged. They apologized and pleaded for mercy. But this young man before him?He remained calm and unbothered. As though Orion's existence was insignificant.The old master's fingers lightly brushed the jade pendant hanging from his waist.The emblem of the Heavenly Origin Sect gleamed faintly. It represented power, status and authority.Throughout Highmont, countless people trembled at the mention of that name. Yet this b
C74: RUN!
However, Veyron suddenly smiled. A calm smile that was completely out of place."Who said my time has come?"The three men froze. Before they could react—SWISH!Veyron casually shifted half a step sideways. Just half a step. Nothing more.Yet Orion's terrifying palm missed completely. The violent force behind the attack continued forward.BOOM!The warehouse wall behind exploded into fragments. Dust filled the air and silence followed.Orion's eyes narrowed. A trace of surprise appeared for the first time. His Heavenly Origin Palm had missed.Not because his opponent blocked it. Not because his opponent countered it. But because Veyron simply moved. As though he had already predicted the attack."Hmph!" Orion snorted coldly. "Pure luck."He twisted his body and immediately launched another strike.This time his speed increased. His robe fluttered wildly and his palm cut through the air with terrifying momentum.Yet before he could complete the movement, Veyron moved.No spiritual en
C75: Is He Even Human?
For a long moment, nobody spoke. Nobody could process what they had just witnessed. Then— "My goodness." A third guard pointed at the shattered pillar nearby. "Did you all see that? The impact alone cracked solid concrete. And look at the floor!" The crowd followed his finger. Cracks stretched across the warehouse floor like spiderwebs. The scar-faced guard felt his scalp tingle. His gaze remained fixed on Veyron. A trace of fear appeared in his eyes. "This man..." His voice was dry. "Is he even human?" At that moment, he silently thanked heaven for stopping himself earlier. If Veyron had truly decided to fight when they intercepted him on the road... None of them would have survived long enough to return and report back. Meanwhile, Robert, Julian, and Zayden looked as though they had swallowed bricks. Their faces were frozen. This result was completely beyond their expectations. Grandmaster Orion wasn't some random fighter. He was a respected martial arts master.

C76: I Lost
"Humph! Veyron, did you hear that?" Robert was the first to recover from his shock.The fear on his face gradually disappeared and confidence returned to his eyes."So what if you defeated Grandmaster Orion?" He sneered arrogantly. "Once the Heavenly Origin Sage arrives, your fate is already sealed!"His bandaged arm trembled slightly as he pointed at Veyron."You think you're impressive because you know a few tricks?" He laughed coldly. "Let me tell you something. In the martial world, there is always someone stronger."His smile widened. "And the person standing above you is Severin Vale!"Julian and Zayden nodded immediately. The name alone seemed to restore all the confidence they had lost moments earlier.Meanwhile, Veyron merely looked at them. His eyes contained neither fear nor concern. Only amusement.The corners of his lips curled upward."The Heavenly Origin Sage?" he repeated lazily. "What a ridiculous title."The smiles on everyone's faces froze."What did you just say?"
C77: Danger!
"No wonder he is called the Heavenly Origin Sage." Zayden's voice trembled slightly with excitement."The strongest member of the Heavenly Origin Sect..." His eyes shone with admiration. "He truly deserves that title."Robert nodded repeatedly. "Just standing here, I can feel the pressure."The guards nearby shared similar reactions. Some subconsciously lowered their heads. Others took several steps backward.The oppressive aura emanating from Severin Vale was simply too overwhelming. Even breathing felt heavier.Meanwhile, Veyron quietly observed the old man. His expression remained calm.If anything, there was a hint of curiosity in his eyes. That was all. No fear, caution, nor excitement. Just plain curiosity."Senior Brother..." Orion staggered forward and coughed violently.COUGH!COUGH!Fresh blood trickled from the corner of his lips. Only then did Severin fully stop walking.His eyes shifted to Orion. The instant they did, the atmosphere changed.Everyone felt a chill run down
C78: Someone Can Kill Him
"That's enough."Veyron's indifferent voice broke the silence. His gaze swept across the warehouse one final time.The moment his eyes landed on Robert, Julian, and Zayden, the three men felt their hearts tighten violently. A chill ran down their spines."Veyron..." Julian's voice trembled slightly. He subconsciously took a step backward. "W-What are you planning to do?"Even he didn't realize that he had become afraid. The previous arrogance and confidence had long disappeared.Robert's face was pale. Cold sweat continuously dripped from his forehead."Don't... don't act recklessly." His voice sounded dry.The image of Severin Vale being blasted through a wall kept replaying in his mind.That terrifying scene refused to leave his head.Meanwhile, Zayden remained silent. His expression was extremely ugly.For the first time, he realized that he might have seriously underestimated this man.Yet Veyron merely looked at them. A faint sneer appeared on his lips."Pathetic."Only one word.
