288. Madam Secretary
Boom!There was a loud noise on impact, and the entire team of full masters collapsed in unison.Their internal organs had instantly ruptured; they died right there on the spot without even wailing.Terrifying!It took a while for the Major General himself to recover from what he had just witnessed in real time. He had heard about the young master’s terrifying abilities in the East five years ago, but rumor said he was weak now. This was not weakness. This was an overbearing force that crushed everything in its path.“Push forward!” he commanded, and they swarmed the chambers again, dividing into the several smaller rooms.They met resistance on their way, but it was only inexperienced thugs who stood no chance.Not long after, the Major General hurried back to William and beckoned politely, “This way, Young Master.”They arrived in one of the inner chambers where the giant brick doors gave way to reveal a fragile-looking woman chained to the ceiling. Her entire body was dyed crims
287. The Conglomerate Military
Noon at an archaic, abandoned building in the west region of New Spring, the environment was quiet that day until a swift noise cut through the air. With the wind came William Miller; his steps were as calm as a feather. He moved briskly ahead, and in front of him was a silver acupuncture needle covered in darkness, spinning at an impossible speed.William caught the needle, and the negative energy died under his firm grip. Soon enough, several military choppers arrived on the scene, deploying rappel ropes around and over the building.Men in protective military gear came rappelling down the ropes with heavy rifles in position. The moment their feet touched the ground, they took quick formation and began to flood the building in their numbers.The Major General was up ahead, leading the war-ready troop, and military trucks began to appear in the distance as backup.William followed slowly behind with his hands behind his back and an indifferent look on his face. The stale yang en
286. The Forbidden Technique
The search for Evelyn Grey continued from morning into afternoon, with the full conglomerate military support in New Spring working overtime.The old master's secretary was a vital pillar in the Miller Conglomerate system and was behind many approvals, both home and abroad, where she was currently. If anything were to happen to the secretary, the hierarchy of power in the conglomerate would surely be destabilized.The military generals in New Spring made sure to keep the news of her disappearance under a tight leash within the city. If this got to the east, there would surely be an outbreak of war within the Miller group that even the old master might not be able to resolve.The seat of the conglomerate secretary was a powerhouse that took instructions directly from the head and might also choose to act independently. It was the closest thing to being the heir to the multi-trillion-dollar conglomerate group.Towards noon, William arrived at Evelyn's place at South Park and was led
285. The Undercover
William had just gotten into his car outside the Sinclair mansion when the butler approached his window."Doctor Miller, Mr. Sinclair asked that you return to see him regarding a matter."He followed the butler back to the manor and met Edward waiting in the empty foyer."Doctor Miller—sorry I had to call you back. I heard you were leaving."William responded, "I came to make sure that Amelia is okay, and she is.""About that, do you mind staying in the manor for a while?" Edward suggested, but there was something about his tone that made William step closer."Is there a matter about Amelia that I don't know?" He had already confirmed that she was in perfect health, and the call had been only a stupid ploy by Ava.Mr. Sinclair hesitated, but he finally said, "I would have remained silent about this, but I know how much you care about my daughter even if my wife refuses to see it. You might have heard already—that troublemaker Gary Marcus is back. The worrying matter is that we can't s
284. The Narrative
"Shane Chain." Marcus stopped walking and turned fully to face his commander, who had his head down because the former commander had been obliterated before his eyes with the forbidden stone for speaking wrongly."Why does that sound familiar?" He stared keenly at the commander, who sucked in a breath of cold air before explaining,"It's the same half-step to Grandmaster who defeated the half-step legion commander Jacob Snow in the death duel. He had the commander crippled and, afterwards, the Snow family mysteriously vanished. No one knows if he was responsible."There was an interesting look on Marcus's face as he nodded slowly. "Is that so? A brazen practitioner who thinks he can act however he likes in my city."He had always wanted to know the master behind the death of his right-hand practitioner Caleb. Now that he was also responsible for the defeat of another high-level practitioner, how could he not be involved?"Lord Marcus, I heard this Shane Chain from the east used to be
283. Lord Marcus
Meanwhile at an unknown location, Gary Marcus made his way into the main chamber of a building where hundreds of his foot soldiers had gathered in several straight lines. A number of them were armed with high-powered rifles, and the others stood alone, unarmed. People might not know, but there were hidden practitioners among them.Marcus made his way to the front of the chamber and raised his hands, laughing wildly. “My brothers, I knew you would all heed my call and be here today. I applaud those of you who left the power-playing and other measly families to rejoin your one and only Lord. Together, we will reclaim this city and make this world ours.”Before Lord Marcus deliberately committed crimes to land in prison, he not only ran the New Spring mafia but also controlled the underground martial arts practitioners and had conducted many dirty businesses.Most of them became rogues after he was imprisoned, and others joined second-rate or even power-playing families because of their
