Chapter 762 – Augustus’s Helplessness and Fury
*****Lucius had tried to humiliate Xavier and Grace to the extent that they wouldn’t dare to show their face again in public, but… he had been the joke all along… the greatest joke in fact, and… Lyria’s words and revelation?His mind was in complete shambles, so the voices in the hall only passed him like smoke as he knelt there, his eyes hollow and vacant. He didn’t even appear like a human anymore. Instead, he resembled a soulless puppet that had been discarded and abandoned by its master.Across the hall, Augustus watched in a stupor, his skin completely drained white, and his jaw dropped to the ground.He was the proud patriarch of the Myron family, who had strutted into the hall, acting almighty and arrogant, as though he stood at the apex of the world and everyone was below him.But now? He looked as though he had seen a ghost, disbelief heavily etched on his face as he stared at the chaotic hall that was busily cursing and condemning his own son.Earlier, he had hunted f
Chapter 761 – The Hall’s Fury
*****Normally, an F-rank fighter would never dare to breathe too heavily in the presence of an E-rank. Yet right at this moment, this man was roaring in fury, leaving everyone, especially the F-rank and E-rank fighters in the hall, to wonder if he had gone mad or simply grown tired of living; after all, the audacity was something else entirely.However, the man’s expression told another story.At this moment, his face twisted with unrestrained rage, thick veins bulging out across his temple, yet beneath that anger lay a suffocating fear.At first, he seemed oblivious to the hundreds of eyes drilling into him. But soon he realized, and when he did, he didn’t shrink back.Instead, his lips curled into a snarl.“What?!” he barked, his voice reverberating through the hall, and his fury swelling instead of shrinking. “Did I lie?!”The question instantly struck like a slap.Several people flinched instinctively, no one expecting defiance from an F-rank to an E-rank fighter, yet her
Chapter 760 – The Commotion and Speculations in the Hall
*****Everyone, seeing the woman’s pitiful expression, instantly frowned, their brows knitting in confusion.‘What happened?’ they all thought subconsciously.But just then…“Why did you pinch me, Father? That really hurt!” the woman exclaimed, her voice breaking with genuine pain.All mouths instantly dropped open upon hearing this, then all heads turned again, all gaze landing on the man beside the woman.It was an elderly, broad-shouldered, and grey-bearded man, an E-rank fighter known for his stern pride.But right now, he did not look proud. Instead, he looked… lost.His beard quivered as if his chin had lost all strength, his eyes, wide and unblinking, fixating on his daughter with a face heavily etched with disbelief.Then, amidst everyone’s intensified confusion…“You… you actually felt that pinch?” he stammered.The crowd instantly blinked, everyone exchanging dazed glances. ‘Was he serious?’ they thought.“Of course, I felt it, Father! My body is not made of iron
Chapter 759 – Julius’s Excitement
*****“Hahahaha!”A sudden roar of laughter shattered the tension, echoing through the hall so abruptly that it nearly gave several guests a heart attack.Immediately, all heads whipped around in perfect unison, all eyes searching for the source of the thunderous voice.It came from the third section… Julius, Julius Cromwell.At this moment, he was on his feet, his entire body shaking as he laughed like a man who had been possessed.His grin stretched wide, his eyes gleaming with manic delight, which, to the crowd, made him appear like someone who had just lost his grip on sanity.“That… that is my master!” Julius crowed, his chest puffed, and his voice bursting with pride.The crowd watched in stunned disbelief, almost everyone wondering whether he had lost his mind.But Julius didn’t care. He was far too busy drowning in excitement right now to care.He had expected Xavier to dominate, yes, but this? This was far beyond anything he had imagined. It was glorious, terrifying
Chapter 758 – Departing the Banquet
*****Standing there frozen, Grace’s mind had long spiraled out of her control, as if it had been thrown into a whirlwind.Far too many things had happened tonight… so much that she had felt so humiliated in a way she had never experienced before in her life.But the way it had ended and how the tables had turned so sharply and drastically… it was something she could never have ever imagined in her life.So, hearing Xavier’s sudden question and his tone that was so warm, completely different from the cold, indifferent tone he had used to speak to everyone else, it took a moment for her to react, then… she blinked and her eyes slid to him in a daze.For a long heartbeat, however, she just stared at him, unable to gather her thoughts into anything coherent.How was she even supposed to respond after everything that had just unfolded?She had already known that Xavier was her guidance angel and he would always find a way out for her in any situation, but tonight’s had been hopeles
Chapter 757 – I’ve Already Marked All Your Faces
****Augustus looked ready to explode at this moment, causing half the crowd to instinctively lean back, as if expecting him to erupt in flames.Lyria, however, wasn’t impressed. If anything, the sight seemed to disgust her further.“Crashed your banquet?” she scoffed, her lip curling as if the words themselves were poison. She pointed back at the Scoan father and son, the gesture sharp as a blade. “You two clowns ruined your own banquet when you dared to humiliate the Master. Don’t twist things. If you want to blame anyone, it was you.”She let the silence hang for half a beat, then added, her voice dripping venom:“And honestly… it seems your family is really tired of living.”This was it.The crowd froze, their blood running cold. A collective shiver swept through the guests as their eyes widened and their ragged breaths filled the silence.Finally, all mouths hung open in stunned disbelief.‘Did she just… threaten the Scoan family?’The thought struck everyone at once, a
