Chapter 65: Bring Him HereCassian’s insults got the man annoyed instantly.The leader’s face darkened, and for a moment, the arrogance he had carried into the clinic cracked enough for real anger to show through. He had clearly expected fear, obedience and athe very least, he had expected the people inside this small clinic to understand the difference between themselves and the convoy parked outside. Instead, the young man before him had laughed at him, insulted him, and asked whether the screws in his head had gone loose, all while sitting lazily as if this entire group of black-clothed men were nothing more than a mild inconvenience blocking his morning lesson.The leader slowly raised his hand and pointed at Cassian.That finger alone carried threat.The doctors felt it immediately. Several of them stiffened while one young assistant subconsciously took half a step back, because the men in black did not look like ordinary bodyguards, they looked like people who would truly break
Chapter 64
Chapter 64: A Loose ScrewThe sound outside was getting louder and louder, causing literally everyone in the clinic to instinctively look toward the entrance. Even before the vehicles stopped, the doctors could tell that whoever was arriving wasn't an ordinary patient. Ordinary people didn't travel in convoys or announce their arrival with enough engines to make half the street turn their heads.Cassian frowned slightly.Honestly, he hated things like this.People with influence always seemed to enjoy making grand entrances. Expensive cars. Bodyguards. Arrogant attitudes. It was as if the world needed to be reminded every few minutes that they existed.Troublesome.Very troublesome.Still, since the other party had already come all the way here, there was no point chasing them away before hearing what they wanted. Not that he cared who they were. Whether they were rich, powerful, famous, or influential meant absolutely nothing to him. If they had come to seek treatment, they would be

Chapter 63: Back To The ClinicCassian on the other hand landed gently at a secluded corner where nobody would be able to see him. The powerful winds between the skyscrapers swept past his clothes, but his feet touched the ground as lightly as a feather. For an ordinary person, jumping from such a height would have been a guaranteed death sentence. Bones would shatter, organs would rupture, and there wouldn't even be a complete body left to identify. For Cassian, however, it was hardly worth mentioning.As a cultivator, that height meant absolutely nothing.Years ago, he wouldn't have even bothered taking such a roundabout method. He had possessed flying swords, movement techniques, treasures and many other things that ordinary people would never believe existed. Back then, crossing mountains in a single day or traveling through the sky was no difficult task. But those things belonged to the past now. At least, that was how he preferred to think about them.A faint smile appeared on h

Chapter 62: The WindowMiranda frowned slightly after hearing her secretary’s words. An important visitor? At this exact moment? Her mood was already terrible enough, and the last thing she wanted was to entertain some business partner while a strange man who had broken into her office sat comfortably on her destroyed sofa as if he had reserved the place in advance. She opened her mouth, ready to refuse, but before she could speak, the secretary outside seemed to remember something important and quickly added another sentence.“President Miranda, he introduced himself as Damian Harthwone.”Miranda’s expression changed.The name immediately made the room feel different.Damian Harthwone.The eldest son of the Harthwone Family.The man her family elders had arranged for her to marry and the same mercenary-ranked heir Cassian had mocked just minutes ago.Miranda’s eyes moved to Cassian almost instinctively, but Cassian only raised his brows slightly with a faint smile, as if the timing
Chapter 61
Chapter 61: Not a ChoiceCassian smiled after Miranda asked why he was telling her all this, and for a moment, the coldness that had slipped into his eyes earlier disappeared behind that usual lazy amusement of his.He leaned against the ruined sofa as if he was not sitting in the office of one of the most powerful women in the Ravencroft Family, and had not just admitted to having a feud with her entire bloodline, and the dagger marks, torn cushions, broken wood, and scattered pieces of foam around him were nothing more than decorations provided for atmosphere. His gaze rested on Miranda with a kind of calm sharpness that made it difficult to tell whether he was praising her or studying how much pressure she could take before she cracked.“You’re pretty smart,” Cassian said.Miranda did not respond.“No wonder you were able to lead this company to such heights,” he continued, his voice light, almost casual, but not empty. “Most people in your position would either scream, call guard
Chapter 60
Chapter 60: The Older GenerationShe stepped back slowly after hearing Cassian’s words.The movement was controlled, almost unnoticeable, but the meaning behind it was clear. Miranda was no fool, and she had already received enough proof to understand that continuing to attack Cassian would be useless. The fight just now had not even been a proper fight. It had been her attacking with everything she could use within the office while he sat on her sofa, dodging lazily, mocking her, and occasionally saving her from her own mistakes. That was not equal combat. That was a gap. A very ugly one.Her fingers remained wrapped around the dagger handle, but the weapon no longer gave her any sense of safety. It felt almost ridiculous now. What was the point of holding a dagger in front of someone who could avoid her strikes without standing up? What was the point of pretending she had control when the man sitting in front of her looked as if he could decide her life and death before she even to
