Chapter 1486 – Abrupt Concern
*****“Son.” Augustus suddenly turned toward Lucius after a moment. “I just thought of something.”Lucius lazily glanced over. “What is it?”His tone carried absolute certainty, as though believing the battle was already over.“You remember our concern earlier?” Augustus folded his hands behind his back. “The fact that we've lost our greatest backer.”At those words, Lucius's relaxed smile faded slightly, and in the following second, his expression grew serious.This is currently the greatest issue plaguing the Scoan family. They had already lost their backer, making them nothing but a wounded beast now.Predators would soon begin to circle them, and once weakness appeared...Greed would.However, before Lucius could dwell much on those thoughts, Augustus smiled mysteriously.“Tell me...” He gestured toward Hunter. “Isn't this idiot standing before us exactly the opportunity we've been waiting for?”Lucius blinked. Then his brows knitted together.“I... don't quite follow.” Augustus's

*****Augustus halted as soon as he heard his son’s question.For a brief moment, he blinked. Then he lightly slapped his own forehead.“Oh?” he laughed. “My mistake, son.”He shook his head with exaggerated embarrassment.“You're absolutely right.”“I had almost forgotten we're dealing with nothing more than insignificant trash.”He turned back toward Hunter, his eyes overflowing with contempt. “My son has reminded me of something important.”His smile widened. “You're beneath me. So congratulations.”He slowly spread both hands with theatrical generosity.“I've decided not to lower myself by personally killing you.” He deliberately paused to let those words sink in before adding with a sneer,“After all... we have more than enough ranked fighters throughout this estate.”“They've probably been bored anyway. Consider it my gift to them.”Lucius couldn't resist laughing again.“What incredible luck,” he mocked. “Imagine being so worthless that even the person you're trying to kill ref
Chapter 1484 – The Father and Son’s Intensified Arrogance
*****Even the father's and son’s breathing became difficult beneath that invisible pressure.However, that terrifying sensation lasted for only a heartbeat.Augustus gradually steadied himself before quietly exhaling.‘As expected of a veteran who has survived countless wars...’ he couldn’t help but think to himself, admiration surfacing inside him despite the lingering chill crawling across his spine.He even clicked his tongue softly.Lucius, meanwhile, swallowed hard.His throat suddenly felt incredibly dry.‘We're both F-rank...’ His pupils trembled faintly. ‘So why... why does standing inside his aura make me feel like nothing more than an insect? Like he could crush me without even lifting a finger?’The thought unsettled him.Their cultivation realms should have placed them on relatively equal footing.Yet the overwhelming difference in killing intent made him feel as insignificant as an ant standing before a colossal dragon.Still, that didn't change reality.Hunter remained
Chapter 1483 – “Quit Barking Nonsense... And Prepare To Die!”
*****Hearing Hunter’s words, Lucius and Augustus exchanged puzzled glances and searched his expression, trying to determine whether this was merely empty bravado or genuine confidence.After several seconds, they reached the same conclusion.‘He wasn't joking.’Unfortunately for Hunter, that realization didn't frighten them in the slightest.Instead, both father and son burst into laughter.Lucius even wiped the corner of his eye dramatically as though Hunter had just delivered the funniest joke he had heard all year."Tell me something," Lucius finally said, struggling to suppress another laugh. His expression became mockingly serious, though amusement still danced in his eyes. "Has being hunted these past few days relentlessly finally damaged your brain?"He didn't even wait for Hunter to answer."You already knew we were hunting you throughout the entire city..." He spread his arms theatrically before looking around the mansion. "...and your brilliant solution was to walk straight
Chapter 1482 – Hunter’s Verdict
*****Hunter's entire body shook again, his fingernails digging so deeply into his palms that tiny streaks of blood slowly emerged."You..." His voice became rough, almost animalistic. "You two were busy violating the woman I called my wife!"His roar shook the furniture around them."You turned her into your personal plaything..." His breathing became heavier with every sentence. "And even after destroying my marriage... even after trampling every shred of dignity I had left..." His eyes blazed with murderous hatred. "You still sent your men after me!"His fists clenched harder.Crack!His knuckles cracked loudly like exploding firecrackers."You hunted me like a stray dog!"His memories flashed uncontrollably as he once again recalled how he had run through filthy alleyways, slept inside abandoned buildings, and hid inside foul-smelling gutters while assassins searched overhead.He remembered how he had been watching over his shoulder every second over the past days, never knowing w
Chapter 1481 – Hunter’s Pain
*****Hearing the father-and-son duo’s brag, Hunter remained standing silently.However, his chest rose and fell steadily.His fists had already tightened so much that his knuckles turned frighteningly white before gradually reddening under the immense pressure.And this… only encouraged the pair further.Augustus slowly turned toward him again, wearing the smile of someone delivering the final blow."You should be thanking us," he declared arrogantly. "As your masters, we merely helped lighten your burden."He shrugged shamelessly before sneering. "Honestly speaking, I doubt a worthless servant like you could have satisfied a woman with that much energy all by yourself."Lucius burst into laughter."Father's right." He folded his arms confidently. "If anything, you should appreciate our generosity."Then Augustus added the final insult, looking down at Hunter as though he were nothing more than dirt beneath his feet."Besides..." he sneered, "it's far better that she ended up with pe
