The leader’s eyes narrowed, his grip on Cassandra tightening as he raised his firearm, pointing it directly at Alistair’s chest. "Mind your own business, buddy, unless you want a second belly button. Drive away while you still can."

Alistair took a single step forward, his expression completely unbothered by the barrel aimed at his heart. "A threat? How remarkably unoriginal."

"Kill him," the leader spat to the two men in trench coats.

Before the nearest henchman could even reach into his jacke

  • Chapter 691: Meeting the Saint

    "They have accepted the summit," Elder Zhao reported, unrolling the scroll to read the glowing crimson characters etched into the silk. "However... they view the imprisonment of their representatives as an act of war.”"They view it as an act of war?" Alistair repeated softly, a cold, dry smile touching his lips. "Then let them. All their representatives will remain in the subterranean cells until their elders arrive and answer for their conduct face-to-face. Not a single seal on them will be lifted until then."Elder Zhao’s brow furrowed with deep anxiety, his hands trembling slightly as he held the scroll. "Young Master Reid... if you refuse to release them beforehand, the sect masters will see it as a direct insult to their pride. They won't come to negotiate—they could very well attack the moment they land in Haven!""If they choose to speak with their fists instead of reason, I will be more than happy to meet them in the middle," Alistair replied, his voice entirely devoid of fea

  • Chapter 690: The Sword Saint

    Alistair stopped in his tracks, his golden eyes narrowing into razor-sharp slits. "You threaten an entire city of innocent civilians? You call yourselves followers of the righteous path, yet you hold no honor, no mercy, and no justice.""Honor?!" Xue Ying laughed mockingly, her face bruised and bloody. "Who cares about honor?! You humiliated us! You ruined our reputation! The righteous path is whatever we say it is, and we will destroy everything you love to make you pay!"Alistair looked down at them, a cold, absolute realization settling in his mind.These people were not merely mistaken—they were a festering parasite.If he ended this here, more envoys would come, and Haven would never know peace. To protect those he cared about, he had to cull this problem at its absolute root."You have made your choice," Alistair said softly.Turning to the Boltons, Alistair offered a reassuring nod. "The threat to your home is ended for today. Rest and repair your manor.""Thank you, Master Re

  • Chapter 689: An utterly futile endeavor

    Alistair slowly turned around, facing the six representatives head-on.The moment Alistair's golden eyes locked onto Meng Hao, the prodigy of the Heavenly King Martial Sect instinctively took a half-step back, his hand tightening around the hilt of his broadsword as an unbidden chill ran down his spine.Meng Hao glared at the newcomer, trying to suppress the sudden wave of dread pooling in his gut. "Who are you?! State your name and your sect!"Alistair’s expression remained unreadable, his eyes cold and distant. "My identity is inconsequential to dead men.""You arrogant—!" Meng Hao snarled, but before he could finish, Xue Ying let out a sharp, horrified gasp from behind him."It's him!" Xue Ying cried out, her face going deathly pale as she pointed a trembling finger at Alistair. "Brother Meng, that's Alistair Reid! He is the very man the previous envoys warned us about—the one colluding with the demonic sects and harboring that old cripple, Master Xie!"Meng Hao’s eyes widened slig

  • Chapter 688: In the nick of time

    Their brazen defiance grated severely on the nerves of the six representatives standing opposite them.Representing the pinnacle factions of the righteous alliance, these elite cultivators were accustomed to absolute submission.At the head of the group stood Meng Hao, the famed prodigy of the Heavenly King Martial Sect.Clad in golden-embroidered martial robes, his hand rested on the hilt of a heavy broadsword.He had been dispatched to Haven with a singular objective: investigate the mysterious death of his sect brother, Long Tian, and obliterate whoever was responsible.Guided by the twisted testimonies of the other representatives, his eyes were locked onto Elizabeth with venomous intent.Yet, despite their overwhelming numbers and superior cultivation, the six representatives had been unable to lay a single finger on the three seated before them.Every time an attack drew near, a translucent, golden barrier would ripple into existence around Elizabeth, Donald, and Caleb—a protect

  • Chapter 687: Unworthy to hold power

    Driven by frantic desperation, the twenty-three representatives surged forward at once. Blades gleamed with sword light, frost-Qi spikes condensed in mid-air, and corrosive palm strikes rained down from every direction, aiming straight for Alistair’s vital points.Alistair didn't even shift his footing."Foolish," Alistair said coldly.He simply flexed his fingers, releasing a single, radial shockwave of pure, condensed celestial Qi.BOOM!The incoming attacks were shattered instantly, dissolving into harmless sparks.The shockwave slammed into the charging representatives, throwing all twenty-three of them backward.They crashed violently into the stone pillars and courtyard walls, coughing up mouthfuls of blood as the ancient suppression relics overhead shattered into worthless dust.Before Zhao Chen could even regain his footing, a golden blur materialized directly in front of him."You..." Zhao Chen choked out, his eyes widening in pure horror.THUD!Alistair’s palm struck Zhao C

  • Chapter 686: Pay for your sins

    Alistair's tone was eerily calm, but the ground beneath them began to micro-fracture, a suffocation of raw, suppressed killing intent saturating the very air of the hall. "Which sect? Which elders?”Before Master Xie could answer, a loud, arrogant burst of laughter echoed from the roof of the inner sanctuary.BOOM!The wooden ceiling shattered inward as twenty three figures descended into the courtyard, landing in a tight, defensive formation surrounding Alistair and Master Xie.Alistair recognised them as the representatives of the righteous path that the righteous sects had sent previously. He didn't think they would dare to show their face before him again after the warning he'd given them last time. Clearly, they hadn't learned their lesson yet.The person leading them was Zhao Chen and his gaze was filled with hatred as he glared at Alistair Reid.Neither he nor the rest of the twenty two representatives had forgotten the humiliation they'd suffered at Alistair's hands the last
