Chapter 275
Adrian’s gaze showed not the slightest change as he looked at the Source Spirit.“You’ll know soon enough.”Barely had Adrian finished speaking when the Source Spirit suddenly felt an unbearable pain surge through her entire body.She had managed to grit her teeth and remain standing, but in less than a minute, her clothes were soaked through with cold sweat.She screamed in agony, her voice shrill and grating.The Hinoku warriors tried to rush forward to save her, but a single swing of Iris Lloyd’s great blade frightened them into complete stillness.Seeing them fall in line, Iris Lloyd stood beside Adrian with his weapon in hand, casting a hostile warning glance at the Hinoku warriors, signaling them to behave.They truly did not dare make another move. Iris Lloyd glanced at Adrian, who gave a slight nod.Meanwhile, the Source Spirit’s screams continued without pause. Unable to bear the pain, she collapsed and began rolling across the ground in torment.“Still not talking?”Adrian l

Source Spirit’s hair was blown wildly by the surging currents of force, fanning out as she took on the likeness of a feral fox spirit, claws bared."Today—you will die!"Adrian merely looked at her, offering no reply.Source Spirit spread her hands, drawing all the power from the puppets into herself. Before her, a towering silhouette gradually took shape.It resembled a White Tiger—yet from its head protruded horn-like growths, grotesque and unnatural.Adrian watched calmly as the aberrant creature solidified, then shook his head with a trace of regret."So this is what you call advancement?"It was clear he held no regard for the creature before him.Source Spirit let out a cold snort. "Go!"The White Tiger threw back its head with a deafening roar and charged toward Adrian.Each thunderous step of its massive limbs made the ground tremble.Adrian did not move.A faint smile curled at Source Spirit’s lips.So much arrogance in his words—yet when faced with the White Tiger, he stood

Sensing the danger, Iris Lloyd stepped back two paces, his gaze locked onto the black miasma swirling at Source Spirit’s feet.His instincts told him this was no ordinary technique—it was something deeply sinister.The dark vapor coiled and gathered, forming two grotesque, undefined shapes that writhed in the air like clawing beasts before lunging toward Iris Lloyd.No one knew what they were, yet an overwhelming dread seized the crowd, forcing them to retreat.Leonard Newman swallowed hard. "Mr. Doyle… what is that? That guy—he’s not in danger, is he?""I don’t know. Let’s watch first."Even Adrian could not yet discern its nature, though the suffocating killing intent was unmistakable.Before anyone could react, the two strands of black smoke suddenly veered—not toward Iris Lloyd, but into the crowd.Among the onlookers were not only Adrian’s group and the Hinoku warriors, but also a few Novaland Republic citizens who had secretly returned.Among them were the young women clad in Hi

The crowd on the field had not yet fully dispersed when Source Spirit made her move.The folding fan in her hand was delicate and lively, its vivid crimson hue like snow stained with blood.The cherry blossoms painted upon it seemed almost alive; as her fingers brushed across them, they bloomed with an aura of death.Blossoms drifted from the trees—at first only a few, then gathering into sweeping clusters that danced with the wind. Yet the falling petals never touched the ground.To Adrian and the others, Source Spirit appeared to be dancing, her movements so graceful they bordered on unreal—yet no one mistook this for a mere performance.A faint fragrance rode the breeze. Every petal seemed drawn by her motion, circling her body before converging at her fingertips.At this moment, they were no longer petals, but lethal weapons beyond resistance."What overwhelming killing intent!"Iris Lloyd’s expression hardened as he stepped forward.Before Adrian could stop him, he had already dr

Seeing their leader struck down, the Hinoku martial artists hurried over to help him up.“Mr. Field, are you alright?”Granary Field bared his teeth in pain, his expression twisted as he glared in Iris Lloyd’s direction.“Kill him!”At his command, every Hinoku martial artist drew their katana and charged at Iris Lloyd with loud cries.Iris Lloyd did not retreat even half a step. He met them head-on, swinging his broadsword with nothing but raw strength.The clash of steel rang out again and again. One after another, the attackers were knocked to the ground, sent flying, or left wailing in pain. The worst off were those struck directly by the flat of Iris Lloyd’s blade.Out of restraint, Iris Lloyd held back—no one was gravely injured, let alone killed.Still, out of a personal sense of satisfaction, he made sure each of them left with bruises and bloodied faces—a rather striking sight.In no time, the plaza was littered with fallen Hinoku martial artists, while Iris Lloyd stood unhar

“These bastards are vile beyond redemption—they deserve to die a thousand times over!”“They’re scum—and those Novaland Republic people who come here and shamelessly dress in Hinoku clothes are fools too!”“Why hasn’t their volcano erupted yet? I want to see it with my own eyes in my lifetime!”“I feel like strangling them all right now!”Leonard Newman and the others cursed furiously, each more incensed than the last—it was clear their hatred ran deep.The more they saw those oblivious people posing happily with Hinoku martial artists, the more their anger flared.At that moment, an infuriating voice cut through the air, drawing everyone’s attention.“Well, if it isn’t those brats who came here causing trouble earlier. What’s wrong—itching for another beating?”A burly Hinoku martial artist, his face full of menace, strode over with a broadsword slung across his shoulder.Adrian narrowed his eyes, while Iris Lloyd stepped forward at once, placing himself between them.The Hinoku mart
