Chapter 447
The man’s silence began to grate on Adrian’s nerves.“What the hell are you smiling at?”No sooner had he spoken than the man moved again—his outline wavered, then split. Shadows proliferated, each one a perfect duplicate: same face, same stance, same predatory calm.Adrian blinked, just long enough to lose the thread—then a dozen silhouettes surged at him in a coordinated assault.The strangest thing was that every copy attacked with a different rhythm and angle.Infuriating to pin down.He cast his senses wide, but in that flurry he couldn’t isolate the real body.“Out of my way!”Irritation flared. He drove a fist forward.Gold roared. Power crashed like a breaking storm.With a thunderous crack, the clones were blasted backward in unison.The darkness buckled and collapsed into a single body.Adrian eyed the man across from him and let out a low chuckle. “You’re good. Those phantoms were sharp enough to fool even me for a breath. But do you know the fatal flaw?”He paused, then ad

Back then, the one he was closest to was Nora Simpson.After leaving the Doyle family, everything about that place faded into oblivion.In his memory, the Doyle family was a shrouded fog—impenetrable, indecipherable.Sooner or later, I’ll uncover the whole truth.Nora Simpson fell briefly silent, then lightened the mood. “Brat, cut the nonsense. Do you remember what next month is?”Adrian paused, forcing himself into her rhythm. He ventured, “Your birthday?”“Brat, at least you’ve got a shred of conscience left. Listen up—on the thirtieth next month, if you’re not the first face I see, I’ll make sure you spend the rest of your life as a eunuch. Got it?”Her warning echoed through the car via the speaker.Emptiness couldn’t help it—he snorted out a laugh.Adrian shot him a monumental eye roll.After hanging up, Adrian stared out the window, a weight settling on his chest.Who exactly was his father? Why had the Doyle family taken him for so long without a single word?What had really h

Vincent Walker spat at Sebastian Simpson’s feet. “Pah! What are you so proud of, Sebastian? If not for that brat, you’d be a corpse. Go on, kill me—but you’ll never be my equal. You’re nothing. Trash.”Sebastian stood quietly, watching Vincent thrash against the inevitable. “And you didn’t lean on the King of Gangbuk? Without him, you think you could’ve staged this revolt with those pitiful followers of yours?”Vincent’s face had the color of ash. He laughed and laughed. “Winners are kings, losers are dogs. Enough talk—kill me or carve me; I’m at your mercy.”Sebastian raised his hand and brought it down, ending Vincent Walker’s life with a single palm.Then he turned to the traitors.“You were once my brothers. I gave you a chance. You chose profit over loyalty. I can’t forgive that.”The ten martial hall masters glanced at one another. Seeing mercy wasn’t coming, they sprang up as one.“If begging won’t save us, we’ll cut our way out. Better a fighting chance than waiting to die!”“

Those two clean, decisive cuts left everyone stunned.“Two strokes! He was one of the King of Gangbuk’s personal guardians—deadly strong—and that young man felled him like it was nothing? This is insane!”“Who are these people?”Only then did Sebastian Simpson fully grasp what Adrian had meant earlier. Adrian hadn’t failed to notice the danger around him—he was simply certain none of these assailants could threaten him. They couldn’t even get past the brothers at his side.After a brief lull, Adrian pocketed the silver needles, a faint smile at his lips.“Brother Simpson, you’re stable for now. You can join the fight and avenge the brothers who died for you.”The words punched straight through Sebastian’s heart. He looked at the comrades who had died with eyes wide open. If not for buying him time, they wouldn’t have fallen.Adrian turned to Emptiness and the others. “The rest are yours. Leave the old one to me.”Quickblade fixed Adrian with a frigid stare, tightening his grip on the
Chapter 443
The arrival of nearly five thousand fighters from the Fifteen Commercial Alliances caught everyone flat-footed.“Drop your weapons and surrender! Traitors, the lot of you! You meant to wipe us out to the last!” a burly, bearded man roared at the rebels, fury blazing in his eyes.“Why aren’t you dead yet? What went wrong? Where did our plan fail?” The turncoats were rattled, unable to comprehend how the tide had turned.“Hmph. We had powerful help. Your betrayal has already reached Lord Buddha’s ears. The one aiding us is Lord Buddha’s own brother—Mr. Doyle.”At that, the members of the Fifteen Alliances all turned and bowed toward the entrance.When Adrian stepped into view, the expressions across the hall shifted in subtle, startling ways—most of all on Sebastian Simpson’s face. His pupils contracted; a tremor ran through him, raw with sudden, disbelieving relief. No one else could fathom what it meant to be dragged back from the brink.When he’d messaged Adrian earlier, Sebastian ha

The battle had erupted in full force. Even with Sebastian Simpson and the others fighting tooth and nail on the front lines, the casualties kept mounting.Before Vincent Walker and his men arrived, they had already been locked in brutal combat for hours. Now that the fight began anew, exhaustion overtook them, and their lines faltered.Sebastian Simpson watched his brothers fall one after another and fixed his gaze on Vincent Walker in the distance.“Vincent Walker, all of this began because of you. You want me dead? Then let’s see if you’ve got what it takes!”With that, he called up the last of his strength, surging forward straight at Vincent Walker.Sensing danger, Vincent lifted his longsword with a subtle flick.Though Sebastian was grievously wounded, he was still the stronger of the two. Fueled by fury, his blow landed with explosive force—Vincent grunted and was sent flying by a single punch.Sebastian threw his head back and laughed.“Hahaha! Vincent Walker! You want to be p
