Descending into the basement holding area, Talia, Sonia, and Dahlia immediately moved down the rows of cells.

Using master keycards recovered from the guards, they unlocked every iron door, throwing them wide open.

A wave of disbelief, followed by overwhelming relief, washed across the faces of the trapped men, women, and children.

"You... you really came back," the man from earlier choked out, his voice cracking with emotion as Sonia personally removed his heavy shackles.

    Fiona's spirit was willing, but her body was entirely mortal, unrefined by cultivation.Moreover, his journey to the capital was imminent."I cannot stay in Valenhold to act as your master," Alistair said softly, though his tone held no cruelty. "My path takes me elsewhere tomorrow."Fiona's shoulders slumped slightly, a flash of disappointment crossing her face, but before she could speak, Alistair continued."However... if your resolve is genuine, meet me here in the dining hall tomorrow morning before I depart."Fiona snapped her head up, her wide eyes instantly lighting up with hope. "I will! I'll be here!""Rest well today," Alistair added with a subtle, encouraging nod before walking past them and heading up the stairs to his room.Once inside his private quarters, Alistair locked the door and sat cross-legged at the desk.He pulled out a blank, high-grade parchment scroll along with an ink brush.While Fiona did not possess the spiritual Dantian required for high-level cultivat

"The leadership upstairs has been completely dismantled. You're all safe now."Alistair stood at the end of the stone corridor, his presence calm and steadfast as the captives began pouring out of the cells.Tears of gratitude flowed freely as people hugged one another, many looking toward Alistair with profound reverence."Head up to the courtyard in an orderly fashion," Alistair announced, his voice carrying clearly down the hall. "Imperial me

  • Chapter 682: Bringing an end to the monster

    Alistair stepped forward through the blinding gale, his golden eyes burning with divine wrath."You have feigned a throne long enough," Alistair said, his voice ringing out with the finality of a celestial decree.With a sweeping motion of his hand, Alistair unleashed a torrential storm of golden lotuses that wrapped around Molech’s towering, multi-jointed shadow like chains of judgment. The ancient entity thrashed violently, trying to claw its way back through the spatial tear, but the divine bonds only tightened, burning away its stolen ley-line energy.FWOOSH!A pillar of pure, incandescent sunlight pierced straight through the stormy clouds above, descending directly upon the altar.Molech shrieked one final, agonizing note before its entire form was consumed by the purging fire, dissolving into nothingness alongside the corrupted altar and the stolen energy matrix.Silence descended upon the ruined hall—a heavy, absolute quiet broken only by the crackle of lingering flames and t

  • Chapter 681: the Great Molech

    With his own life now at stake, how could Valen possibly accept it?No, even if he had to sacrifice everyone else, he would not hesitate to do so to save himself. With that in mind, he turned towards the artifact they had originally brought into the hall.The artifact was connected to the demon Valen and the rest of those in the trafficking ring worshipped.Indeed, they were all in a cult.But instead of asking for power like demonic cultivators, they sought riches and control instead. In any case, for the artifact to work, a sacrifice had to be made.Unfortunately, Valen couldn't get his hands on the captives trapped in the basement of the building.But that didn't mean there was no replacement. All he had to do now was simple. “Great Molech, please do not forsake me now. Give me the power I need to vanquish this insignificant pest and as payment, take the lives of all living beings in this hall!” Valen exclaimed, stunning everyone present. The other eleven leaders knew that Val

  • Chapter 680: In the name of the Heavens

    A dense, impenetrable spatial boundary enveloped the entire Obsidian Palace, spanning from deep beneath the subterranean bedrock all the way into the heavens.No matter how furiously the guards struck or how many defensive talismans Valen burned, the barrier remained utterly immovable.Alistair had erected an absolute spatial domain the very second he plunged into the ballroom.Not a single soul bearing the stain of the shadow council would leave this hall alive.He had sworn an oath to the heavens, and today, justice would be served in full.Meanwhile, Talia, Sonia, and Dahlia moved like lethal shadows amidst the chaos.With fluid, practiced precision, their micro-blades flashed in silver arcs, granting swift, painless mercy to the tragic, mutated victims.They did not strike out of malice, but out of profound pity, severing the corrupted meridian bonds to free the agonizing souls trapped within those ruined shells."Rest now," Talia whispered softly, her blade cleanly piercing the h

  • Chapter 679: The cultivator named Crimson

    The next moment, Alistair sensed several dark energy sources.The girls with him immediately put up their guard as they laid eyes on the sources of the dark energy.They were people, but something was fundamentally wrong.They were crawling on all fours like animals, their eyes were blood red and their veins were bulging. They looked like rabid beasts. Alistair's heart nearly broke at the sight. “This…”“They were unable to handle the backlash of the pills I created but I am not a wasteful person. So I turned them into my loyal dogs.” Crimson coldly said. The grotesque, twitching forms of Crimson’s human hounds filled the obsidian ballroom, letting out low, guttural whimpers that grated against the nerves.Once innocent victims whose minds had been completely shattered by the demonic backlash of the Blood-Soul Pills, they now scrambled across the polished marble like rabid beasts, saliva dripping from their bared, bloodstained fangs.Talia, Sonia, and Dahlia instinctively shifted
