Chapter 584 – The Decision
*****Everyone froze the moment they heard the Blackwood patriarch’s suggestion, the temperature in the room seeming to drop.For a moment, not a single soul could speak. Then—“I find it… suspicious too,” said a voice filled with careful curiosity. “Is it a mere coincidence that the clash took place on Myron’s land? Or… does he perhaps know these A-rank fighters personally?”The speaker was the patriarch of the Greystone family… one of the five first-rank families. His expression, though calm, showed cracks of unease.The room exhaled in collective tension at his words.But before they could think much… a voice, sharp, oily, and dripping with disdain spat. “What an absurd notion,” it rasped, low and malicious. “A mere second-rank family, fraternizing with not one, but two A-rank powerhouses?”Heads turned slowly toward the speaker.The speaker was the Revercrest patriarch, who was cloaked in an eerie atmosphere, his presence unsettling as ever.Brows furrowed across the ta
Chapter 583 – Inside Riverton City’s Council House
*****Elsewhere, in a bubble tea lounge populated by young women…A loud sniffle drew attention to the corner booth.“Sister Elina,” cried a girl, hugging a plush, small, cute monster doll. “All I could think of last night was that I’d never get to see my premium Labubu arrive!”As soon as all the ladies in the room heard her, their minds flashed, and the image of a monstrous, limited-edition collectible doll with oversized teeth, bulging eyes, and a face only its creator could love flashed in their minds.It was so ugly, yet for some reason, it had become fashionable that girls starved for it. Literally.“Not the Labubu!” gasped another. “Didn’t you preorder that for like… three months?”“I did! I skipped meals! I even lied to my parents that it was an educational AI toy!”Her friends recoiled in shared horror.“My own Labubu almost fell off the shelf from all that shaking,” a girl sniffled. “I cradled it like a newborn till morning.”“I wasn’t worried about dolls,” another
Chapter 582 – The Following Morning
*****Gradually, the night clawed its way across the sky in slow, tense hours… thick with dread and heavy with unspoken fears.But as if the heavens themselves had grown weary, the first sliver of dawn finally pierced through the darkness like a divine blade, slicing the gloom open. Golden rays trickled in slowly at first, then surged forward, illuminating the world with a brilliance that felt both surreal and triumphant.And just like that, morning arrived.In Riverton City, a place that had quaked beneath the weight of something unnameable just hours before, the sun’s emergence felt like a miracle. As the light chased the shadows away, life returned with explosive vigor.The city practically sprang to its feet immediately. It was as if every soul had decided that sleep was a luxury for those who hadn’t glimpsed the end of the world the night before.The streets swelled with life… teeming, bustling, and overflowing. People spilled out of their homes, dormitories, slums, mansion
Chapter 581 – The Bloodfang’s Order
*****The throne at the end of this hall wasn’t just massive, it was filled with thorns and drenched in ancient blood.Upon it sat a figure draped in robes so red they looked like they had been dyed in the hearts of dying men. His eyes were closed, as though meditating… or perhaps dreaming of war.The watcher fell to his knees with a soundless thud, his head bowed, and his body trembling.“Master,” he croaked. “One of the Seven Fangs… has fallen.”The chamber, always thick with silence, became something else entirely.Heavier. More absolute.It was a silence so dense it felt as though the very earth beneath them had stopped breathing.Then—The man on the throne opened his eyes.In the next second, the world changed.Twin beams of seething, blood-colored light burst forth, rippling outward like tidal waves of malice. The force of his gaze alone sent cracks snaking through the obsidian floor.Everyone in the base felt it.Even the walls groaned.The kneeling watcher dared
Chapter 580 – Death of One of the Seven Fangs
*****At present, within the pitch-black, suffocating silence of the Watch Chamber, the Watchers remained unmoving, still fixed before the screen of life and death. Their stares were glassy. Unwavering. Not a single blink. Not a whisper.This was the rhythm of their existence.A maddening routine that would erode the mind of any ordinary soul. Yet these watchers were not ordinary.They had long surrendered the boundaries of sanity.Eyes rimmed red with exhaustion, they stood like statues beneath the ghostly glow of the pulse-monitor… a wall of cascading lights, every flicker and rise representing a soul still tethered to life.Time passed, but not for them.For these Watchers, time was an illusion. They only existed in a void between shifts, between life and death. They did not feel the passage of hours, the rising or setting of any sun. Only the changing of a shift allowed them to breathe… to blink… to remember they were still human.Then—Without warning, something shifted.
Chapter 579 – The Bloodfang League’s Hideout
*****Roughly one or two hours ago… still cloaked in the darkness of that same night…Hidden far beyond the reach of any map, and buried in a forsaken stretch of land long erased from Vemora's national records, lies a place no living soul… sane or deranged dares to wander into.Once, nearly two centuries ago, this wasteland had flourished. It was a bustling mining town, alive with the clang of pickaxes and the hum of human hope. But now… it was something else entirely.Now, it was dead.There was no movement. No whisper of wind. Not even the skitter of a desperate rodent or the rustle of dried leaves.Only petrified trees, blackened and twisted like ancient bones, stretched skyward like grasping fingers, clawing at a sky that would not answer. The silence here wasn’t empty… it was suffocating, dense enough to squeeze the breath from lungs and wrap around one’s sanity like a vice.No one could agree on how this land had died.Some had claimed it was over-mined, drained until th
