Chapter 225: Real and Fake Kiera
In this world, strength decides everything. Always had.“Kael,” someone said quietly, “Senior Ghost King has arrived.”The Ghost King?Kael Draven froze for a moment. He hadn’t expected that name—least of all now. The last time they’d met, things had gone badly. Really badly. Still, after a brief pause, he stepped out to meet him.There was only one reason.No matter how tense things were, the Ghost King was still Kiera Thane’s father.They met in a secluded courtyard.A stone table sat between them, plain and cold. Steam curled lazily from their teacups as Kael Draven and Arden Thane faced each other in silence. After a while, Arden Thane lifted his cup, took a measured sip, and smiled faintly.“Kael Draven,” he asked, almost like it was an idle conversation, “do you hate me?”Kael Draven caught the weight behind the words. His reply was calm, distant.“I wouldn’t say that.”Arden Thane nodded, unsurprised. “I know you’re unhappy with me. But you should understand something. I have m
Chapter 224: Something Isn’t Right
Zeric Jasper and Jack Holden didn’t leave Emberfall Town.They stayed.Not just nearby, either—they moved straight into the Draven Family residence.Kael Draven felt it deeply. Gratitude, relief, and a little guilt, too. Friends who were willing to stay when trouble was knocking at the door were rare. The kind you didn’t forget, no matter how far life dragged you later on.When it came to Andrew Anderson’s death, Kael Draven didn’t hold anything back. He went straight to his grandfather and laid everything out, piece by piece, from start to finish. By the time he was done, Ardyn Draven’s expression had darkened completely.The Golden Sun Sect.Just thinking about it felt like standing beneath a mountain—huge, silent, and ready to crush anything in its way.“Kael,” Ardyn Draven said at last, calm but heavy, “what are you planning to do?”Kael Draven drew in a slow breath. “Grandfather, it’s obvious what’s going on. Someone framed me. Deliberately. But whoever it is, the Golden Sun Sect
Chapter 223: Framing the Innocent
A Supreme Warrior.Rob Maddox had never imagined it would come to this.Everyone knew Ghost King Arden Thane as a Venerable—just like the other sect masters among the Six Great Sects. That was a settled fact. Everyone accepted it.And yet…Supreme Warrior.The truth hit like a thunderclap.Arden Thane didn’t waste a second. His aura surged like a storm, twisting the air itself, and before Rob Maddox could react, a single palm slammed down onto the crown of his head.It was over before it even began.No struggle.No resistance.Ghost King Arden Thane chuckled—soft, cold, and unsettling. He glanced at Andrew Anderson’s lifeless form nearby.“Unlucky,” he murmured.As for all of this… Kael Draven had no idea.Emberfall Town — Draven Family Main Hall“Brother Jasper… Brother Holden,” Kael Draven said, studying their expressions. “You didn’t come all this way just to visit, did you?”The two exchanged a quick look, hesitation written across their faces.Only five days had passed since they
Chapter 222: Kill Without Mercy
“Grandmother… Mother… are you both all right?”“We’re fine, Kael,” Evelina Drake said at once. “Just… be careful.”She had known he would come. She didn’t know how—only that she never doubted it. Standing beside her own mother, Evelina Drake squeezed her hand tightly as they both watched Kael Draven. Relief washed over them, but fear lingered just beneath the surface.After all, this wasn’t some minor force standing before them.This was the Golden Sun Sect—the strongest power in Celestia.If Kael Draven hadn’t shown up when he did, the Drake Family would have been erased. Completely. No second chances.“Kael Draven,” Andrew Anderson sneered, his eyes cold. “You’re the one courting death. If you die today, don’t blame anyone but yourself.”“Andrew Anderson,” Jack Holden said sharply, “are you really planning to overwhelm him with numbers?”The moment Kael Draven stepped forward, a trace of relief flashed across Jack Holden’s face. It vanished just as quickly, replaced by his usual icy
Chapter 221: Just You?
“Evelina Drake, take everyone and leave the Drake Family.”“Mother—”Margaret Drake lifted her hand, stopping her mid-sentence. She didn’t raise her voice; she didn’t need to. Her back was straight, her eyes steady, the kind of calm that left no room for argument.“As the head of the Drake Family, I stand with it,” she said. “Whether it survives or is wiped out, I don’t step aside. But you’re different. You’re the future. Nothing can happen to you.”At that instant, it felt like the years finally caught up to her. The lines on her face deepened, her shoulders looked heavier, and she seemed to age right before Evelina Drake’s eyes. Her heart clenched.“Evelina Drake,” Margaret Drake said more quietly, “take them to the Draven Family. Tell Kael… tell him this old woman asks only one thing in her entire life. Let him take you in.”She didn’t wait for an answer.Margaret Drake stood, turned, and walked out of the main hall. Her steps were firm as she headed toward the outskirts of Thunder
Chapter 220: Self-Inflicted Consequences
The private room of the high-end restaurant reeked of wine. The air was heavy, clinging to the walls like a bad decision you couldn’t take back.Thomas Drake was already far gone.His head lolled to one side, eyes glassy, thoughts scattered. Whatever he’d said earlier—those careless, drunken words—were completely gone from his mind. He didn’t know it yet, but they were already racing ahead of him, dragging his entire family toward disaster.Raven Mordred, on the other hand, was sober. Sharp. Alert.He’d heard about the spirit vein in the Draven Family’s hands, but he didn’t rush off like a fool. Rumors were cheap. Lives weren’t. If even half the stories about Kael Draven were true, charging in alone would be suicide.Raven Mordred hadn’t lived this long by being reckless.So he chose a safer move. A dirtier one.He let the secret loose.And once it was out, it spread like wildfire.In less than half a day, the entire Celestia knew. The Six Great Sects. The Two Great Empires. Every maj
