Chapter 458
Warriors lived and died by their cores. Every ounce of strength, every drop of cultivated energy was stored there. Now that Julian’s core was shattered, his foundation was ruined forever.For someone at his level, the loss was worse than death. It wasn’t just power that was stripped from him—it was identity, status, pride. A noble young master, reduced to a cripple in a single night.Julian’s body trembled violently. His breathing turned ragged, shallow, uneven. His eyes, once arrogant and full of contempt, were now bloodshot, filled with despair and hatred. In that moment, he lost the will to live. He no longer dreamed of ruling, no longer thought of pleasure. All he wanted was to drag Adam into hell with him.But he couldn’t.His four limbs hung broken, twisted in unnatural angles. His ribs stabbed at his chest every time he gasped for air. His body was little more than a mangled heap of flesh. He couldn’t move. He couldn’t fight. All he had left was his voice and his gaze, spitting

Julian’s face twisted with rage as he staggered back to his feet. His right arm trembled, veins bulging as he clenched his fist with all the force he could muster. With a furious roar, he drove his punch toward Adam, the air around his knuckles whistling from the sheer power behind it.He was a middle–stage pinnacle grandmaster. A blow like this could shatter stone, could pulverize steel. To him, Adam should have been flattened by it.But Adam didn’t flinch. His expression remained calm, detached, almost bored. At the very last moment, he leaned to the side with effortless precision. Julian’s fist struck nothing but empty air.Before Julian could even react, Adam’s counter came. His fist shot forward like lightning, slamming into Julian’s opposite shoulder.A sharp crack split the night.Julian’s scream tore through the silence—high, broken, and blood-curdling. The sound echoed across the empty surroundings, chilling enough to raise the hair on anyone who heard it.His body crumpled a

Julian burst into loud laughter, the sound dripping with mockery and scorn. His voice echoed across the night air, arrogant and filled with contempt.“Adam, you think too highly of yourself,” he sneered, his tone sharp as a blade. “Do you even know who you’re talking to? I’m the Noble Young Master of Coastal Flair. My strength is beyond your imagination. If you’re smart enough to kneel and beg, maybe—just maybe—I’ll let you crawl away with your life.”Adam’s lips curved in a cold, disdainful smile. His eyes locked onto Julian without the slightest flicker of fear. His tone was sharp, calm, and filled with ridicule.“If you’re so strong, then why are you still hiding behind a woman? Only cowards need hostages.”Julian’s face twitched, his pride stung. “Who do you think you are? Do I look like I need to threaten you with her?”With a sharp shove, he released Tessa, who stumbled back, clutching her torn blouse with trembling hands. Julian no longer bothered keeping her close. He had thou

Julian had originally wanted to savor the moment, tearing Tessa’s clothes away piece by piece, making her humiliation last as long as possible. But his lust had grown too wild, too consuming. With an impatient snarl, he ripped off his own shirt and tossed it aside. His hand shot forward, fingers curling around the fabric of Tessa’s blouse, ready to rip it away in one violent motion. He leaned closer, his hot breath brushing her cheek. “I’ll strip you bare, right here, in the wildest way you can imagine,” he whispered, his voice hoarse with frenzy. But before his fingers could tear the fabric, he froze. A chill unlike anything he had ever felt before washed over him—a suffocating, murderous intent that seemed to stab into his very bones. The hairs on the back of his neck rose as if he were prey being targeted by a predator. Julian’s body stiffened. His hand trembled for a fraction of a second before he ripped it away from Tessa and scrambled to his feet, spinning around to face th

The Phoenix King had reached out to Whitney only a few days prior, extending his hand in secret. He had proposed an alliance between the Marlowe family and his faction to wage war against the Supreme General.At that time, Whitney had dismissed him outright. His betrayal of the Supreme General was no secret, and everyone knew he had gone into hiding, licking his wounds. Standing with him was a losing move, a sure path to ruin. She would never risk dragging the Marlowe family into such treachery.But that was then.Now, with Julian’s recklessness dragging them into the abyss, Whitney’s options had narrowed to one. Phoenix King had been a desperate gamble before—now he was their only possible lifeline.Meanwhile, Julian himself remained unconcerned, perhaps incapable of even grasping the catastrophe he had unleashed. He was too self-absorbed, too consumed by his own lust and arrogance to think about politics, consequences, or the noose tightening around his neck.He drove recklessly thr
Chapter 453
Lazarus had no idea that Winda and Hammer were still alive. Julian had deliberately told him that he had killed both Lord Nyra and Lord Hammer.It wasn’t the truth. Winda still drew breath, but Julian had already decided her fate. In his twisted mind, there was no difference between killing one or killing two. Either way, the Supreme General would not spare him once word spread. Since he was doomed regardless, he might as well wring out every last drop of pleasure before the end. To him, Winda’s body was just a prize to claim before discarding.When Lazarus heard the words, he froze, unable to process them.“What?” Whitney’s voice sliced through the silence, sharper than any blade. Her usually calm demeanor cracked as disbelief painted her face. “Julian… went too far. He actually slaughtered two of the Supreme General’s Gods of War? Do you understand what this means, Father? The Supreme General will never—never—let him live!”Lazarus exhaled slowly, his hands trembling on the armrests
