Adrian’s brow furrowed. If they’d kicked up this much chaos, they wouldn’t rest until they found him—vanishing made no sense.Emptiness hesitated. “What if those old men learned how strong you are and bolted ahead of time?”Adrian shook his head. “No. There’s a larger scheme at play. Either way, we need to flush them out fast—or they’ll remain a ticking bomb.”Everyone agreed without argument.He checked the time and rose. “It’s late. Your bodies need days to recover. We won’t keep you. If anything breaks in the next few days, call me.”They escorted Adrian out of the hospital.Lorenzo Watson, William Lane, and Vincent Wallace hurried after him.“Master, wait!”Adrian glanced back, puzzled.Vincent, nudged forward, threw Daisy a quick look, then handed over a finely wrapped box. “Master, Miss Sandy had an emergency back home and had to leave. She regrets not saying goodbye in person. This is for you—and she said not to forget her.”Adrian, not the most sensitive man alive, accepted th

With no choice, the remaining team members fell in behind.They made straight for the elevators. According to their intel, the school’s labs were underground—if there was evidence to be found, it would be there.The corridor ahead stretched long and empty, harsh white lights buzzing over silence so complete it scraped the nerves raw.“Captain, why is the lab deserted? If the proof is really here, they wouldn’t leave it unguarded.”Ophelia frowned, thinking. “We check it anyway. We came this far. We may only get one shot—no way we leave empty-handed.”She pushed the door and led the way inside.The lab was fully stocked—racks of bottles and jars whose purposes would be gibberish to anyone untrained.“Steven, you’re up.”Steven was the specialist Ophelia had brought for exactly this—to find what would hold up in court.He nudged his glasses and set to work with brisk efficiency.“Captain, got something. What’s in this vial matches the toxin we extracted from the kids. We need to take it

Vincent Wallace and William Lane both shook their heads, faces creased with worry.“The injuries are catastrophic—tendons severed in hands and feet, and the dantian completely destroyed. At this point, perhaps only Master, when he returns, has any real chance.”“These Hinoku thugs went too far!” Ronald Peterson ground out. “Even in a challenge match, you don’t maim like this. If my father and the others don’t wake up… what are we supposed to do?”A heavy pall settled over the ward.Daisy tried to soothe them. “Don’t panic yet. When I called Adrian, he’d already booked a flight. He should be on his way back right now. Let’s hold on.”Ronald nodded, voice catching. “We’ve never doubted Mr. Doyle’s skill—but their dantians are gone. Even if they live… the rest of their lives, they’ll be ordinary.”If that. Martial artists carried old wounds like second skins; with energy to protect them, they could pass for whole. Strip that away, and they’d be plagued by every small illness under the su

Only then did everyone remember—Adrian was also the captain of the Sixth Divine Healers.“I nearly forgot. With the vice Chamber Master treating us, I’d be a fool to waste the chance. I’m hitting the shower first!” Vincent Norris waved and vanished into his room.The others exchanged brief nods and dispersed to wash up.Adrian took a quick shower, changed, and settled cross-legged on the carpet to wait.“Vice Chamber Master, we’re here!”Before long, the team leads and members filtered in.“Everyone, take a seat. Men, shirts off. Norris and Moyu, you can keep your undershirts—makes it easier for me to treat you all at once.”Naomi Norris and Octavia Isaacson weren’t the bashful sort. They nodded and slipped out of their jackets.Naomi was tiny—a pixie with slim arms and legs that brought out everyone’s protectiveness… provided she didn’t transform.Octavia, by contrast, was the picture of discipline—musculature clean and even, all coiled, healthy power.Once they were set, Adrian dist

With a roar, Watanabe Tano hurled himself at Adrian.Adrian’s iron-fisted execution of Uchiha was a naked insult to the three who remained—a slap across the face.They could not swallow the humiliation.“You two, cut down the others. This brat is mine.”Uechi Daiki and Fukukawa Yōsei answered once and charged Harley Emerson and the rest.“Watch yourselves. I’ll finish this old relic and back you up!”Adrian called the warning over his shoulder just as Watanabe Tano’s strike descended.“Wail of the Nether!”A sweeping tide of deathly chill rolled in. The sky darkened under a swarm of translucent specters, their faces twisted and ravenous.The temperature plunged, as if the living world had fallen away.Adrian snorted. “Parlor tricks. You think that can kill me?”Gold flared over his hands. With his left, he traced a sigil through the air; with his right, he drove a palm forward.The talisman blazed, detonating the onrushing wraiths to tatters.Before Watanabe Tano could react, Adrian’s

Unlike Adrian, the others were clearly outmatched by the guardian beasts and were quickly forced onto the defensive.He seized one of the serpent’s heads with pinpoint precision, let out a roar, and hauled the three-meter-tall monstrosity clean off the ground before slamming it into the earth.The impact shook the ground like an earthquake, a sound that rattled the bones.The Yamata-no-Orochi answered with a voiceless scream of fury and lunged for Adrian again.The melee grew more chaotic by the second. Anxious to aid his companions, Adrian stopped holding back.Golden shockwaves burst from his fists, obliterating the serpent heads one by one.At last, only a bald, mangled torso remained, its will to fight utterly broken.By the time Adrian finished, the others had more or less taken down the remaining two guardian beasts.They delivered the final blows. Each of them bore wounds, some light, some not.“Chamber Master is a monster! With power like that, only our Chamber Master could go
