Chapter Thirty-One: On the Edge of Death
Damon had completely lost his mind, thinking only of avenging the brothers who had died in the Black Talon Syndicate.His eyes were hungry for blood as he locked onto one man and stabbed at him relentlessly, ignoring the other two.One against three was no way to win. He would risk his life and take one of them down with him.Bang!The martial artist he'd targeted felt his heart pound and his soul tremble. He had never seen a fighting style so fearless. Even though his cultivation was two levels above his opponent's, he was still terrified of a madman who didn't care whether he lived.He raised his sword and barely blocked Damon's spear. The spear struck the sword in a shower of sparks.The late-stage Awakened martial artist was forced back three steps by the ferocity of the attack, the web of his hand splitting, a tightness spreading across his chest, an indescribable discomfort.It was terrifying. What kind of bloodline could unleash that kind of combat power? The sight made Young M
Chapter Thirty-Two: The Rest Is Up to Me
Barrett's roar, Damon's refusal to bend, Wren's helplessness.The three Wraiths had become fish on someone else's chopping block.Young Master Hargrove's face was full of mockery. He enjoyed the scene. The more frustrated his opponents were, the happier he was. Building his own pleasure on other people's suffering was the greatest joy of his life."You two, weren't you so stubborn? I'll give you one more chance. Kneel and beg me, and I'll consider letting this girl go. If you don't kneel and kowtow to me, I'll start breaking her bones, one by one, right in front of you."Young Master Hargrove approached Barrett and Damon with a smug grin.Let's play!He loved this game, making tough men kneel and beg for mercy. That was the sense of achievement he felt he deserved."Hargrove, you bastard, I'll kill you!"Barrett howled. This scum was crossing the one line that mattered."I'll count to three. If you haven't knelt and kowtowed by then, I'll start with her fingers."Young Master Hargrove
Chapter Thirty-Three: Rage
Blood and flesh splattered, swords whistled, and lightning spread.Gideon's black hair streamed wildly, like a thunder god come down to earth. As he killed, his eyes slowly turned red."They all have to die!"Gideon roared, unleashing a torrent of fury. The hundreds of souls of the Black Talon Syndicate and the Cole Trading Company, the corpses strewn across the ground, filled him with endless pressure. That pressure and anger could only be released in the blood of his enemies.Slash after slash.Gideon swung the White Tiger Blade, unleashing endless blade-light. Like a demon king, like a god of slaughter, he tore through the crowd, killing five men in the blink of an eye.All five Awakened masters were cleaved in two, leaving the ground a bloody mess like a slaughterhouse. The whole courtyard had become a living hell because of his arrival."Damn it, another lunatic."Some of them were terrified. The Champion Marquis was too frightening. Killing a middle-stage Awakened cultivator was
Chapter Thirty-Four: Screw the Hargrove Family
A thunderclap rang out, a blade flashed, screams broke the air, and blood and flesh flew everywhere!The once-invincible late-stage Awakened martial artists were reduced to helpless ants at someone else's mercy.Gideon made them feel, for the first time, what powerlessness meant.Aaaaah!Four screams rang out, and the last four late-stage experts all died under his blade. Their deaths were horrific. Some were beheaded, some cut in half at the waist, some cleaved in two.By now, of the thirty Awakened Realm experts Young Master Hargrove had brought, only two old men at the Perfected stage were left alive.From the moment Gideon appeared until everyone was dead, less than five minutes had passed.The courtyard, so full of noise a moment ago, fell suddenly silent, eerily quiet, quiet enough to hear a pin drop.The mangled corpses on the ground and the sharp stench of blood in the air battered the nerves of everyone present.Elena frowned deeply, fighting the urge to vomit.Today's battle
Chapter Thirty-Five: Kowtowing to My Brother
It was no longer just a thunderstorm. It was the end of the world.When the lightning faded, the two old men lay in a bloody heap, writhing on the ground.Elena was stunned again. As a master at the Perfected stage, she knew all too well how terrifying Gideon's move had been, especially the phantom of the thunder elephant that appeared at the end, carrying the pressure of ancient times, the power of thunder, and endless killing force. Even at her peak, she couldn't have withstood it."What kind of monster is this man?"Elena was shaken. She even boldly guessed that Gideon's fighting strength was enough to take on a master in the early stage of the Soaring Realm.It was true. He definitely could. If the Soaring Realm meant flight, Gideon could fly too. Elena had already seen those magnificent lightning wings, soaring through the sky, even faster than her own black eagle had been."My goodness, the Young Master is too fierce!""Wow, he really is the chosen one. The Young Master's only b
Chapter Thirty-Six: Bloodline Half Open
On the outskirts of Highmarket, hundreds of new graves stood in neat rows.Before each grave stood a headstone engraved with the dead man's name, his age, and the names of the brothers who'd fought beside him.Gideon stood before the graves with Barrett and Damon on either side, while Elena watched from about ten feet behind.Elena had long heard the name of the Champion Marquis and had even been curious about this unusual man of the secular world.Today, since meeting him on Dragonspine Ridge, she had witnessed a battle straight out of purgatory, and it had set Gideon's image in her mind.A passionate young man, loyal and righteous, afraid of nothing. That was what a real man was.Daring to fight, decisive in killing, with that domineering spirit that seemed to challenge the heavens themselves. That was the state a true warrior, a true genius, should be in.This man, like a thunder god, was destined for limitless achievements.His one-year duel with Eleanor was the focus of everyone'
Chapter Thirty-Seven: The Firebird Appears
A gloomy atmosphere hung over Highmarket.The Cole Trading Company had lost its former glory. The battlefield of its headquarters had been cleaned up, but the bloody aura hanging in the air was still strong.Saving Wren was the last thing Gideon and his group had to do in Highmarket. After this, Highmarket, the Cole Trading Company, the Black Talon Syndicate, and everything else would become history, nothing but memories later on."Young Master, where did you pick up this young lady? She's wearing a veil, but she's definitely a beauty. Could she be our sister-in-law?"On the way, Barrett's small eyes darted back and forth between Elena and Gideon, and he asked in a low voice."You fat idiot, are you looking for a beating?"Elena glared at Barrett. How dare he tease her like that? He was asking for trouble. If he hadn't just been through so much, she'd have given him a good beating."Barry, I advise you not to go looking for trouble. If she wants to beat you up, I can't stop her."Gide
Chapter Thirty-Eight: Girl, What Does Your Family Do?
The flames grew stronger and stronger, and the sea of fire expanded. The room had been burned to ashes, and Gideon and the others retreated to a distance of thirty feet.The sea of fire roared, and the phantom of the firebird grew clearer and clearer. Elena's eyes went wide.It was a divine bird out of myth, its body wreathed in flame, its two colorful wings swaying, a crown atop its head, its fiery eyes giving off endless light, like two fountains of fire.Every crimson feather on its body looked as if it had been cast from steel."My god, what is this? The legendary Vermilion Bird, the god of fire. I once saw a picture of the Vermilion Bird in an ancient book. I never thought such a divine bird really existed in the world."Elena was dumbfounded, stunned by the strange sight.It wasn't only her. Gideon, Barrett, and Damon were just as amazed when they first saw the divine bird.A cry rang out.In the next moment, the firebird soared into the sky and let out a cry that shook heaven a
Chapter Thirty-Nine: What a Coincidence!
Gideon felt deeply melancholy. Next to Elena, he really was a poor wretch."Young Master, hurry up and take it. Don't just stand there."Barrett muttered, poking Gideon's arm. The fat man was a money-grubber and was afraid Elena would change her mind."In that case, Miss Winslow, I won't stand on ceremony."Gideon took the Yuan Crystals and put them away naturally.In truth, he'd never meant to ask Elena for money. The nine lotus leaves had been meant as a gift. But since she was offering Yuan Crystals in exchange, he figured he might as well accept them.Besides, it was two hundred thousand! He simply didn't have the courage to refuse."Miss Winslow, now that you've got your lotus leaves, we still have things to do. Please carry on."Gideon said it because he'd originally wanted to find out who Elena was. Someone so rich and powerful had to have an extraordinary backer.The two had met by chance, their paths crossing only because of the Crimson Flame Lotus. Elena had never introduced
Chapter Forty: This Is a Real Man
Ahead of them, the furious Edric Cross and Holt Voss suddenly saw the approaching figures. Their expressions changed drastically, and they stumbled, nearly falling to the ground."My god!"The two cried out and burrowed behind the crowd of guards.Both men were traumatized by Gideon and his people. Gideon had crippled their sons, and in their dreams they gritted their teeth and cursed him to death. But face to face, they didn't have the courage to stand up and avenge their sons.Edric Cross was the most traumatized of all. He trembled at the very sight of Barrett. He still remembered those two mouthfuls of spit in the Grand Hall vividly, and he'd rinsed his mouth for three days and three nights afterward."It's the Champion Marquis."The guards cried out in alarm, stopped in their tracks, and retreated hastily. Many broke out in a cold sweat from fright.The battle in Skyfall Palace that day had already spread through the whole capital. The Champion Marquis's strength had recovered, a
