Chapter 426: The decadence of man
“You, what's your name?” Julian asked. Alistair raised a brow. “I do not see how my name is relevant to you.”“Damn it, don't you dare disrespect me!” Julian bellowed.Clicking his tongue, he took out a chequebook and began writing on it. “Fine then, listen closely, I don't usually do this, but I'll make an exception for you. You look like a male escort from a reputable escort brand, so I'll give you a chance to become a millionaire right now as long as you get out of here and never show your face.”“Hmm.” Alistair raised a brow. “Julian Sturridge, what the hell do you think you are doing?” Isabella questioned.Julian ignored her as he tore out a cheque and tried to hand it to Alistair. “There. A million dollars. That's enough to get you a thousand women of your choice, right? Now take it and get out of here before I change my mind.”Then, he glared at Isabella. “As for you, I'm going to make sure you warm my bed tonight.”“Are you out of your mind?” Isabella shot back.Julian chuck
Chapter 425: Julian Sturridge
Alistair looked at Isabella for a long moment. There was no mockery in his expression, nor was there any cold rejection.Though there was slight amusement. If Isabella knew that his grandfather had already set up an arranged marriage between them, perhaps she might just dig a hole for herself to hide in. After all, one of the reasons Isabella, or rather, Princess Evelyn, wasn't in the Snow Royal household and had changed her name from Evelyn Snow to Isabella Heart was because she was running away from the arranged marriage between her family and Alistair's.Apparently, she thought Alistair would be a wastrel and so was undeserving of her.Unfortunately, even though she rejected the arranged marriage, her parents remained adamant that she had to accept it, so she was forced to flee.Though all things considered, Alistair didn't hold her rejection against her, and in any case, once he returned to the capital to take his place as head of the Shadow Royal Family, it was inevitable that
Chapter 424: A righteous man should not walk alone
The twin headlights of the Bentley flared to life, cutting through the darkness as the luxury sedan glided silently down the winding mountain road, leaving the night's bloody storm far behind.Instead of taking Sara to the Connor manor, he took her back to the hospital.She needed some time to recover, and she might begin to ask questions if she ended up in her family home.This way, if she woke up in the hospital, she would only think that what she experienced was a really bad dream. Upon his arrival at the hospital reception, he found Isabella seated along with a few of her subordinates. “Master Reid.” Isabella greeted him as she got to her feet.“I told you to head home,” Alistair said as he had Sara in a princess carry in his arms.“I'm sorry. I couldn't bring myself to leave just like that, so I decided to wait for your return.” Isabella said.Alistair sighed.He could understand why she would do such a thing, so he decided not to scold her too much. “Alright then.” He remarke
Chapter 423: A clean victory
"Return what you have stolen," Alistair commanded smoothly.He slammed the butt of Kuro's own staff down into the courtyard cobblestones.BOOM!A blinding wave of pristine, divine golden light erupted from the point of impact, sweeping across the entire Beggars Sect compound. The wave washed over Kuro, instantly burning away the black horns on his forehead, purging the corrupt miasma from his body, and forcibly ripping the seven consumed elder souls from his dark core!The lingering, tormented phantasms of the seven elders hovered in the air for a brief moment, freed from their demonic bondage. They bowed silently toward Alistair in deep, spiritual gratitude before dissolving into peaceful, golden motes of light that ascended into the night sky."NO! MY POWER! MY CORE!" Kuro shrieked, collapsing to his knees as his body rapidly withered back into a fragile, skeletal old man.The pseudo-Grandmaster realm vanished like smoke, leaving him weaker than a dying dog.Alistair tossed the ru
Chapter 422: A mosquito biting a lion
The realization hit Elder Kuro like a physical blow: in a straight, head-on battle, Alistair Reid was an insurmountable mountain.No matter how much stolen soul-essence he burned, he was merely throwing dust against the sun.If I cannot break his body, I will shatter his focus! Kuro thought maniacally, his eyes darting through the dust clouds toward the edge of the courtyard.There, propped against a stone pillar under Master Xie’s flickering barrier, lay Sara Connor."Alistair Reid!" Kuro shrieked, his voice splitting into a dual-layered, demonic howl. "You claim to be invincible, but you are still shackled by mortal attachments! Let's see if your grand divine presence can protect her from a soul-rending strike!"Before the last word echoed, Kuro’s body dissolved into a cloud of jagged, pitch-black shadows, shooting across the courtyard at a speed that bypassed space itself, aimed straight for the unconscious Sara!"He's going for the mortal woman!" Elder Zhao yelled in horror."Stop
Chapter 421: Debt collector
The next moment, Elder Kuro unleashed his demonic aura, causing powerful winds to erupt and the ground to tremble. Not even Master Xie was able to withstand the pressure emanating from Kuro. “Stand back,” Alistair said, not just to Master Xie but to the three surviving Beggars sect elders. “I'll handle this.”The three Beggars sect elders, naturally,, didn't know Alistair, so they could only wonder who this young man was to be so bold.They didn't dare to underestimate though, after all, he was the only one who seemed completely unfazed by Elder Kuro's powerful spiritual pressure. At this point, most of the disciples of the Beggars sect had already passed out due to the pressure Elder Kuro was giving off.Those who were conscious scrambled to hide, too scared to get involved in what was happening. Anyway, the three Beggars sect elders hurried to stand with Master Xie, with Elder Zhao asking.“Master Xie, who exactly is that young man?”“That's Master Reid, and you'd best know your
