Veyron stepped out of the Rolls-Royce Phantom without much interest.The chauffeur respectfully closed the door behind him while waiting quietly at the side.At almost the same moment, the black Mercedes-Maybach parked several spaces away. Its chauffeur hurried out and opened the rear door."Master," he said respectfully. "We've arrived."Veyron's gaze drifted over casually. An elderly man slowly emerged from the vehicle.The moment his feet touched the ground, the atmosphere seemed to change.He wore a long black robe embroidered with intricate golden patterns that shimmered faintly beneath the lights.His snow-white hair was neatly combed backward, while a long white beard flowed down his chest.Although age had left traces on his face, his posture remained straight as a spear.Every step he took was steady and powerful. More importantly, an invisible pressure radiated from his body.The surrounding air seemed to grow heavier. The nearby leaves trembled despite the absence of wind.

The smile on Veyron's face gradually disappeared. His icy-green eyes became cold, ruthless and dangerous."I don't have time to waste with you." He casually raised a hand and beckoned toward Ignatius. "Come."Then he added calmly, "If you can touch me within ten moves..."A faint sneer appeared on his lips. "...I'll consider it your victory."The atmosphere instantly froze. Ignatius stared at him in disbelief. Then, his face darkened.The veins on his forehead bulged violently. For a moment, he almost suspected he had misheard."What did you say?" His voice trembled with fury.Nobody had ever dared humiliate him like this. Not in the past. Not now. Not ever.Yet this brat was actually giving him conditions?The old Sect Master's eyes filled with murderous intent. "You arrogant little bastard!"BOOM!A violent surge of spiritual energy erupted from his body. The surrounding air immediately became heavy.The nearby chauffeurs staggered backward in panic. Some even felt their legs weaken

"NNGH!"Ignatius Thorn struggled desperately.His face turned purple as Veyron's hand tightened around his throat.His eyes widened in terror. For the first time in decades, he truly felt death approaching.It was only now that he fully understood the gap between them.Ten steps to kill a man? What nonsense.Veyron didn't even need ten steps. He didn't even need ten moves. The difference between them was like heaven and earth.A crushing despair filled Ignatius' heart. Just moments ago, he had arrogantly declared that he would allow Veyron ten moves.Now, looking back, he felt as though he had become the biggest joke in Meridian.His so-called pride. His reputation. His fifty years of cultivation. All of it seemed laughable before this young man."NNGH!" His body trembled violently.The more he struggled, the more difficult it became to breathe. Fear gradually replaced every other emotion.Then Veyron's cold voice sounded above him."You should be grateful." His eyes were as cold as i

Gregory completely ignored the danger signals screaming in his mind. Instead, the smug smile on his face only widened."Even if Jasmine regrets her decision now, she has nobody to blame except herself."He pointed directly at Veyron. "You were the one who stood in my way back then. You were the one constantly speaking against me."His tone dripped with mockery. "If you hadn't interfered, she would've married me years ago."Gregory shook his head and sighed dramatically."What a pity." A look of fake sympathy appeared on his face. "Her greatest misfortune was having a useless nephew like you."The more he spoke, the more pleased he became. Back then, Jasmine Blackthorne had rejected him without hesitation.Not only did she reject him, she humiliated him publicly. For years, he had carried that resentment in his heart.Now that he heard she was living a difficult life, he felt an indescribable sense of satisfaction. Serves her right."Gregory." Veyron slowly crushed the cigarette in his
