Chapter 71: The assassin - 2
The assassin’s face changed drastically…..That was enough. Lucian saw it immediately.“So you do know.”“I only know that someone contacted the clan.”“Who?”“I never saw his face.”Lucian’s eyes remained fixed on him.“What did he want?”The assassin hesitated before finally answering.“They wanted the challenge.”Lucian’s fingers slowly loosened.“The challenge?”“They wanted Judge in that arena.”“Why?”The man looked away.Lucian stepped closer, and the assassin instinctively moved back until his shoulders touched the stone wall.“They wanted to watch you.”The words made Lucian’s expression harden.“Watch me?”“They had heard stories.”“What stories?”“That you were different.”Lucian said nothing.The assassin continued carefully, almost as if every word might cost him his life.“They heard about the way you fought, the way you survived battles you shouldn’t have survived, the things people couldn’t explain when they fought you. Some thought you were simply extremely skilled. O
Chapter 70: The assassin
The moment Lucian turned his head toward the strange trace hidden among the crowd, the assassin knew.He had been discovered.For less than a second, the disguised man remained perfectly still, his face buried among the frightened spectators, but Lucian caught the tiny change in his breathing and the way his shoulders shifted beneath his robe. It was enough.The man suddenly shoved the person standing in front of him aside and moved.A thin blade flashed from his sleeve, slicing through the air toward the nearest Blackridge disciple before he kicked off the ground and rushed toward the outer section of the arena.“Stop him!”Someone shouted, but the command was almost swallowed by the chaos.Spectators screamed and scrambled away from the fighting, some stumbling over fallen chairs while others pushed toward the exits, desperate to get away before another attack erupted. Blackridge disciples rushed in different directions, trying to protect their injured clan leader while also stoppin
Chapter 69: The Price of Challenging Judge - part 2
Lucian barely raised his arm before the fist struck! Boom! His body flew backward. His feet dragged across the stone for several meters before he stopped himself. The crowd erupted. “Judge was hit!” The clan leader charged again. This time, Lucian couldn’t simply step aside. The man’s speed had increased dramatically. A punch came from the left. Lucian blocked it instantly! Pain shot through his arm. A second strike followed immediately. He twisted his body, but the attack still grazed his ribs. Another blow crashed into the ground where his feet stood a moment earlier. Stone fragments flew everywhere. Lucian moved through the debris, his breathing slightly deeper now. Across the arena, the clan leader smiled. “You’re finally taking me seriously.” Lucian slowly raised his head, his expression unreadable. The golden light beneath his mask became brighter. His eyes awakened. The world changed. The man’s body no longer looked the same. Lay
Chapter 68: The Price of Challenging Judge - part 1
The Blackridge Clan leader stepped into the arena, and the laughter that filled the stands disappeared.He did not need to announce his name. His presence alone was enough.The air seemed to grow heavier as he walked across the broken stone, his dark robe moving around his legs while a powerful aura rolled from his body. Cracks spread beneath his feet with every few steps, not because he was deliberately attacking the arena, but because the energy surrounding him was becoming too intense for the damaged ground to withstand.Several spectators who stood closest to the arena immediately retreated.“That is the Blackridge Clan Master,” someone whispered.“He’s at the peak of the Earth Realm.”“No wonder they dared to challenge Judge.”A nervous laugh came from somewhere in the crowd.“Judge is finished.”The clan leader stopped several meters away from the masked figure.His eyes traveled over Lucian slowly before settling on the damaged mask.“So this is the great Judge everyone has bee
Chapter 67 : The Judge Appears
Three days later, Blackstone Arena was packed long before the appointed hour.Bounty hunters filled the lower seats, while disciples from different clans occupied the better positions around the arena. A few assassins remained scattered among the crowd, their faces partially concealed, and their eyes fixed on the enormous stone platform at the center.Everyone had come for the same reason.Judge.The Blackridge Clan had announced an enormous reward for anyone capable of defeating the masked figure, and the promise of wealth, influence, and rare cultivation resources had attracted far more people than anyone expected.Some had come hoping to become famous.Others wanted the reward.A few simply wanted to see whether the mysterious Judge truly deserved the reputation that had spread throughout the Hidden World.At the highest section of the arena, several Blackridge elders sat with grim expressions. Their confidence was obvious, but there was something else beneath it.Expectation.They
Chapter 66: The Challenge to Judge
A week later, the Hidden World was talking about Judge again.This time, the rumors didn’t begin with a battle or a bounty hunter.They began with a public challenge.It happened in the central square of one of the largest cities in the Hidden World, where a massive stone platform had been raised for clan announcements. Hundreds of cultivators gathered around it, while several projection crystals transmitted the declaration to distant cities.At the center of the platform stood a group of heavily armed men wearing the crest of the Blackridge Clan.The clan was one of the more influential powers in the region, with enough wealth and cultivators to make smaller factions think twice before crossing them.Their leader stepped forward.“Judge has become a threat.”His voice spread through the projection crystals.“He has hidden behind that mask for long enough.”The crowd immediately erupted into murmurs.Some people laughed.Others looked interested.Everyone knew the name.The masked fig
