*****

Thinking this, Sarah’s eyes narrowed, a predator, vicious gleam suddenly flickering to life within them

Without hesitation, she thrust a trembling finger toward Xavier

“This bastard,” she spat with hatred, pure venom dripping from every syllable, “is an ex-convict!”

“I dated him once,” she continued, practically shaking with the force of her rage, “stupid enough to think he was just some harmless nobody. I didn’t know…” her lip curled into a sneer “…that he was a dangerous criminal. The kind of man who could kill without blinking!”

Gasps echoed through the crowd like startled birds.

But Sarah wasn’t done.

“He just crawled out of prison not long ago,” she snapped, her words sharpened by spite. “And not just any prison… he was just released from the worst hellhole in the country. The kind of place you are not sent unless you’ve committed a crime so vile it makes the devil flinch.”

The hall instantly erupted with whispers, everyone stupefied by Sarah’s report. She hadn’t re

    *****The weight of those words crashed through the hall like a physical blow, and in the next second, every heart lurched painfully into every throat, and the very air thickened, turning electric and suffocating.But the person who bore the brunt the most was none other than… Sarah.The moment Xavier’s voice sounded, it was as if an invisible sledgehammer had slammed into her chest.Her body jerked violently, and before she knew it, she was lifted off her feet and hurled backward several meters before she landed with a brutal thud, sprawled on the polished floor.And then… silence.A pin-drop, heavy, and suffocating silence enveloped everywhere.Every soul in the hall suddenly turned to Xavier, with wide, horrified eyes, staring at him as though he was no longer a man, but had turned to a terrifying demon wearing a human skin, their hearts racing frantically in their chests.By now, even the faintest trace of that calm, infuriating smile had vanished from his face. What repla

    *****The room stilled again, but this time it was a different kind of silence, all brows furrowing, and everyone filled with confusion.Xavier, however, ignored it all.Instead, he tilted his head slightly, his eyes narrowing on Sarah like she had just turned herself inside out before him.“Earlier,” he continued, his tone turning colder and quieter, “you said I was convicted for a crime so vile that even the devil would flinch.” His voice dropped lower. “Have you conveniently forgotten that I committed no crime?”The shift in his voice was like winter slamming through the hall.People actually shivered subconsciously and swallowed unconsciously.Xavier wasn’t smiling again. Not even the slightest trace of the earlier warmth could be seen on his face again.“I defended you from a sexual predator,” he spat, his voice hardening. “From a man who should have been the one on trial. But because I was a nobody, because his family knows someone in the court and is more powerful than

  • Chapter 752 – What’s He Talking About?

    *****At this moment, Sarah, who had been the tempest of rage, venom, viciousness, hatred, and spitefulness only moments ago, now stood frozen as if she had turned to stone.Her eyes were wide open, disbelief and dread battling across her face, while the sharp arrogance she had always worn was completely shattered like glass.Xavier didn’t speak immediately.Instead, he just stood there silent, his very presence pressing down heavier than the very air itself, letting the tension in the hall coil tighter… and tighter… until it seemed like the entire hall was a single heartbeat away from breaking apart.Then finally…“Isn’t it funny?” he spoke, his voice calm, soft, and almost conversational.But as soon as it sounded again, it was as though grenades had dropped.People flinched, their hearts skipping a beat in their chests.Sarah’s breathing, on the other hand, stuttered, her pulse hammering wildly in her neck.Xavier’s gaze locked solely on her, burning into her like twin br

    *****The hall had fallen into a state so still and so quiet at this moment that it felt as though both time and space themselves had been halted for it.Every single person… the E-ranked fighters, the F-ranked fighters, the nobles, the nameless, and the servants, stood rooted to the spot right now, their faces drained of all color, their jaws dangling against the floor, and their eyes bulging like they had just witnessed the end of the world.No one moved, no one murmured, no one blinked, and no one reacted.In fact, right now, everyone in the hall looked less like people and more like lifeless puppets, their souls snatched away, leaving nothing but empty shells behind.Why was this: the words Lyria had just spoken didn’t merely land; they detonated like a thunderclap in their minds and souls.“My sudden act of familiarity was because of Master Xavier.”“Master!!!!!!”The words continued to ring nonstop inside their minds, refusing to fade away, louder and louder, until it fe

    *****“You can’t, Lyria!” His voice cracked, his usual confidence completely stripped away by sheer panic. “You… You were just interested in me not long ago, weren’t you? Did I… did I do something wrong?! How did I mess up?”The hall went still, every single person freezing.And then…It was as though a thunderclap detonated in Lyria’s skull.For a fraction of a second, her body became stiff, her brain trying to comprehend the audacity of what had just happened.Then finally, her gaze followed the unwelcome weight on her wrist, moving so slowly and so dangerously until it landed on Lucius’s hand.In the next second, her mind erupted, and her brain exploded.“Bastard!”The single word echoed through the hall like a blast, shrill and sharp enough to make even the gigantic chandelier shake a bit, causing everyone to tremble all over.“How… how dare you put your vile hands on me?!” Her voice sliced through the silence, each word carrying

  • Chapter 749 – Don’t You Dare Try to Drag My Family Down With Yours

    *****Right now, all his attention was locked on Lyria, every muscle in his body screaming with restrained rage.Although his lips strained to hold the polite, composed smile of a man who hadn't lost his composure, the faint twitch of his jaw betrayed him, staring at Lyria across from him, who stood as unmoving and unreadable as a glacier.The icy rage that had burned Sarah just now was gone, yet her expression remained deadly.She met Lucius’s eyes with a chilling absence of warmth, giving nothing away. Yet, that very detachment and complete indifference only wound the tension in the hall tighter.Lucius hated it, he hated her looking at him like that, and he hated the fact that a man like Xavier… that walking stain of an ex-convict, had somehow earned the kind of reaction from her that he himself, a mighty F-rank fighter, wasn’t able to get.If someone had ever told him before now, even as a joke, that he would one day have to stand here, humbling himself before a woman like L
