*****

Standing at the grand entrance of the hall with the stares of over two hundred and fifty gawking eyes pinned on her, as if she were some kind of celebrity, Lyria Myron felt as though the entire hall had frozen in time.

At this moment, her mind was in total chaos, her heart thundering so frantically against her ribs that it almost hurt her, and her body utterly locked in place, but she failed to notice.

Why?

Xavier was there.

Lyria felt that her eyes were deceiving her, staring at the man standing so casually near the center of the hall, with that signature maddeningly lazy smile that looked as though life itself could never be heavy enough to bother him.

How could she not recognize him?

Even if last night hadn’t happened, Xavier had developed a long, everlasting impression on her since that night in the alleyway, when he had appeared out of nowhere during hers and her grandfather's most dire situation, saving them.

But then came last night... the chaos he had unleashed,

  • Chapter 765 – Turning of the Tables II

    *****At this moment, whether it was men or women, elder or youth, fighter or weakling, guests or servants, everyone… every last person in that hall, save for four or five silent exceptions, had turned their wrath upon Sarah right now.Over two hundred people now glared at her with open hatred and ferociousness of beasts dying to long to rip her apart with their bare hands.Earlier, Xavier and Grace had endured a barrage of cutting, spiteful, humiliating, and ruthless words thrown without even the tiniest bit of restraint or pity for their mental health.But now, compared to what Sarah faced, those earlier insults and humiliation appeared almost tame, like a child’s play.The insults thrown at Sarah right now weren’t just scorn... they were daggers heavily laced with venom, meant not only to cut down her pride but to shatter her very spirit and make her unable to lift her head for the rest of her life.And Sarah, pinned under the barrage of these arrows of malice, had gone compl

  • Chapter 764 – Turning of the Tables

    *****At this moment, still nobody in the hall knew Xavier's true identity.But the fact that Lyria, the favored and beloved granddaughter of Sage Myron, a powerful D-rank fighter, had shown him such deep respect proved beyond doubt that he was someone beyond their measure… someone probably tied to a first-rank force or equivalent.And yet, they had all mocked him, insulted him, and treated him like something worse than filth.But that wasn’t even the unforgivable sin.The real unforgivable sin was that they hadn’t done so unprovoked. No… someone had lit the spark.They could all still remember the moment Xavier had first entered the hall. It was fresh in their mind.They had all been stunned and captivated at that moment, unable to believe their eyes.The women had been completely dazzled by his striking appearance, their hearts hammering in their chests, and some had even indulged in feverish little daydreams with him, imagining themselves beside him.The men, on the other

  • Chapter 763 – Sarah’s Fright

    *****At this moment, Sarah remained seated, frozen on the ground, her body still stiff and her mind still spinning in frantic denial, desperately convincing herself that what had happened earlier was nothing more than some unfunny joke and the aftereffect of all the wines she had had that night.But the harder she fought against it, the faster the reality pressed in on her until suddenly… out of nowhere, a chilling sensation swept down her spine, stabbing her skin like icy needles.It wasn’t just fear, it was more like an instinct… like an animal certain that something unspeakable was on the verge of happening to her.In the next blink, her heart leapt to her throat, and the fog clouding her mind instantly broke apart, snapping her back to the present, and then to her confusion and anxiousness, she realized that... every gaze in the hall was presently fixated on her... over two hundred pairs of eyes locked on her as though she were some lab rat on the verge of getting dissected.

  • 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
