Fifteen sleek Lamborghini Urus cars drove in a perfect line on the highway. They all had an identical emblem of a silver phoenix emblazoned on the hood, catching the light.

This convoy turned heads with every mile, drawing curious stares from passing drivers who couldn't help but wonder what the big occasion was and who the fancy entourage was for.

In the leading car, a young man sat at the backseat, draped in a richly embroidered cloak that had an eye-catching insignia: a stylized crest of a rising phoenix.

His expression was calm but there was an undeniable air of authority about him. And as the convoy sped forward, he gazed out of the window, fully aware of the attention they were drawing, yet remained unbothered.

"Uncle Benedict, what sort of man do you think my cousin has grown into?"

A scorn appeared on the middle-aged man with a gray goatee behind the wheels. "A coward like his father."

The young man stroked his chin at this response and raised another question. "Do

    Rain only began to fall heavily when Kian set on the highway. As he drove, he suddenly felt something was strange. The highway seemed rather silent. Yes, it wasn't rush hour and it was getting late. With the rain falling, it was reasonable that fewer people would be on the road but it seemed like he had only passed one or two vehicles. Kian didn't overthink this and was more concerned about getting to the music school on time. Just as he reached the intersection where he was supposed to take a turn into the street, he caught sight of something down the road and his pupils contracted. In the misty rain, he could see some cars assembled in five rows, all in a perfect line. The fifteen Lamborghini Urus cars from earlier were blocking the road ahead. "They have finally arrived," Kian's lips curled up in a dangerous smile. He knew these cars must be containing people sent from the capital Blackwood family in Cascadia. Only them would make such an entrance. He wasn't at all intimid

    Savannah had just finished her final class. Stretching her fingers and massaging her neck, she walked into her office. After grabbing her bag, she glanced out the window. "Will I even find a taxi in this downpour?" she mumbled, reaching into her bag for her phone. Instead of the phone, she pulled out a card and looked at it in confusion. It took a moment to remember that it was the bank card she had taken to the bank a few weeks ago. She had been so busy she completely forgot about it. She was bugged with a question; 'Who owns this bank card?' DING! Her phone suddenly chimed, reminding her of her main purpose. She reached into the bag again and brought out her phone. There were lots of messages displayed on the phone screen and when she went through them, her expression changed. Each message was reminding her that she had borrowed a lot of money from people while trying to hire a good lawyer to secure her father's release. Thinking of the last time that Noah had been

    Several hands reached out to grab Kian; the sharp tips of knives gleaming in the rain. Kian remained calm and a smile spread on his lips. "It's time to collect some long-overdue interest," Mumbling softly, he closed the umbrella and thrusted it backwards. SQUASH! The tip of the gray umbrella in his hand pierced through the throat of the bodyguard closest to him and blood splattered all over. It was a bloody sight. This action caused the other bodyguards to be surprised. They didn't expect Kian to have such good defensive reflexes so they were momentarily stunned. Benedict's eyes shook slightly and he raised his umbrella. He wasn't surprised at Kian's defensive skill rather he was shocked that he actually dared to touch people from the Blackwood's family. But in the next second, his surprise disappeared, replaced by a dark glint. "Are you all useless?" He yelled at the guards. "Attack together!" SQUELCH! Before he finished speaking, Kian had already acted quickly and his

    The rain had stopped falling heavily and was only drizzling now. Benedict's face had turned white and he laid still on the ground. His eyes were wide open, lifeless but filled with horror and disbelief.Kian took a step back and let go of the umbrella which was now tainted with blood. He wouldn't have resolved to this violence if they didn't start first.So what if Blackwood's family is one of the top aristocratic families in Valoria Central? He could overlook how they treated him and all their wrongdoings but threatening the safety of his family was not acceptable. If it means he has to personally send them all to heaven, so be it! The murderous expression on Kian's face faded quickly, replaced by strange calmness. He lifted his head and looked at Kyle who was sitting on the wet ground in shock.He was still clutching his injured arm and trembling but his gaze was fixed on Benedict's corpse and his face was white. If the young ladies of the capital city, his admirers saw him in this

    "Who are you?" Kian asked slowly. Victor mistook his reaction for fear but Wesley knew this was a sign he was about to explode. Even his throat was beginning to feel tight. For his own safety, he gulped and stepped backwards, away from Kian. "Your name is Kian, right?" Victor stroked his chin. "You don't need to know who I am but I'll tell you now, I'm going to have some fun with your wife! Haha!" THUMP! Wesley held his breath and cursed inwardly. Who was this fool? Was he trying to get himself killed? "See..." Victor flipped the camera again to display Savannah. His fingers darted to her blouse and he forcefully popped the upper button, displaying her flawless skin. "I was going to fuck her and record it for you but what's the fun in that? How about I give you a livestream instead?" Kian's face reddened with anger and his fingers closed around the phone. An oppressive aura of fury descended and Wesley tugged at his shirt's collar. Why was it getting so difficult to breathe

    "Understood sir," Wesley nodded, responding promptly. He opened his mouth to speak again when Victor coughed loudly with blood trickling out of his mouth.Although his internal organs were twisting uncomfortably and he was in excruciating pain, he managed to lift his head and yell weakly, "You... Who do you think you are? If you dare touch this property, the Sinclair's family won't let you go!"His words attracted Wesley and Kian's attention. The latter's face particularly turned dark. Sinclair's family?Victor saw his expression and misunderstood it for fear again. He became confident and continued, ''You heard me right! The Sinclair's family. They are the second biggest shareholder of this school. They won't spare you."Kian's eyes blazed in fury and Wesley shook his head at Victor pitifully. The latter thought he was saving himself but he had only dug a grave for himself.CRACK!"Argh!" As expected, Victor's painful shrieks flooded the room as Kian took a step forward and stomped

    Kian placed a pillow behind Savannah and helped her sit comfortably. When he pulled away, she looked up at him and touched her head. "Your head hurts?"She nodded without attempting to speak. She subconsciously checked her body and secretly heaved a sigh of relief. Besides feeling a bit lightheaded, it didn't appear like that bastard, Victor got his way with her. What happened after she passed out? "You... Did you—""Don't speak yet. You'll hurt your throat. Here, drink this," Kian interrupted her and lifted a glass of warm water to her lips. She emptied the cup obediently and sat back. "You can take some painkillers after you eat. Mother should have finished preparing lunch. I'll go and have a look.""Wait," She held him back and squinted at him. What does he mean by lunch? What time is it now? How long has she been unconscious?Before she could voice out her questions, the phone on the bedside drawer rang. It was her phone and the call was from a colleague at work.She let go of

    "Mom," Savannah frowned and tried to speak but Ida's attention was solely on Kian. The latter smiled and nodded.Ida looked at the keys again and couldn't conceal her surprise. A house in Maplewood? A car? It felt like a dream. She could only imagine the looks on people's faces when they find out.Suddenly, the voices of Wilson's family mocking them the other day came to her mind and she snapped out of her surprise."You are not playing tricks on us again, are you?" She squinted at Kian suspiciously. "Are these keys authentic?""Mom!" Savannah was speechless. "Nevermind, I'll find out for myself," Ida brought out her phone. "I'll call the sales office of Maplewood to confirm.""Mom, will you stop all these? Why are you—" Savannah tried to stop her but she had already begun to dial the number. Savannah looked at Kian worriedly and he shook his head at her, gesturing for her to remain calm. There was nothing to fear and it was best to let Ida satisfy her curiosity.After a few words o

    "Aren't you afraid that this old man will suddenly turn on you all also?!" Kian shouted in desperation.The faces of the three elders contorted into a cruel grin, and one of them retorted, "We are more concerned about seeing you dead first!"Then, the four elders ignored him completely and launched their attacks relentlessly! SWISH! Ambrose Darkmore thrusted his sword forward. His attack was so fierce that his blade pierced right through Kian's left shoulder!But at that same time, another elder was attacking Kian from behind.

    "No! It's not what you are all thinking. You've got me wrong! It wasn't me!" Ambrose Darkmore's loud roar traveled across the square. "I swear I didn’t kill him!"Ambrose Darkmore's voice was filled with extreme anger and deep grievance. Though he was known in the capital city as a 'Sword Maniac', he always wore a flowing robe and presented himself with an air of elegance and grace.But now, with his disheveled grey hair and bloodshot eyes, he emanated a fierce and violent aura. He completely lost any trace of his usual refined demeanor."You've all got it wrong! I didn’t kill Silas Nightingale!" He was extremely frustrated as he shouted severally, but no one responded to him. The spectators gave him strange expressions that portrayed all their thoughts.'Do you think we are fools?!'Thousands of people had witnessed the entire scene and watched him split Silas Nightingale's brain open with his long sword!Now, the delusional man was screaming and claiming that he wasn't the one who d

But the latter suddenly moved. His movement was so swift in that split second that Ambrose Darkmore couldn't catch up.CLANG!Kian held the tip of the sword, not caring about the damage it did to his fingers. His cold eyes locked on Ambrose Darkmore as he pushed the sword forward.Ambrose's eyes widened with shock, and his face turned pale with shock.

    At this time, Kian had already staggered to the edge of the ring when he was hit with another fierce strike from Ambrose Darkmore. The blade slashed through his back and tore through his robe, revealing a trail of bloody line."Ugh!" He spewed a mouthful of blood and breathed laboriously. He was already critically injured. Seeing him in this state, Silas Nightingale was overjoyed and charged forward. "Keep it up! He's already at the end of his wits!"Ambrose Darkmore and the other elders were also delighted. They prepared to strike again and give Kian the final blow. Feeling the terrifying gusts of wind swirling around him, Kian arched a bloodied eyebrow. After being attacked for the nth time, he was now utterly battered. This act has been on for too long, it's time to put an end to it.So this time, he stood firm on the spot and didn't dodge. Panting heavily, he waited for Silas Nightingale, Ambrose Darkmore and the other elders to close in on him. To the spectators, it appeared

    The central square was in a somber atmosphere. The crowd's emotions stirred because of Roland. But Wesley, who the show was for, simply looked at the middle-aged man speechlessly.He couldn't help but ponder, 'Did the general hire this old man to play this dramatic role and add more fuel to the fire? Why is he performing so enthusiastically?'In the ring, Kian, who was supposedly beaten to the brink of death, felt his face twitch severally. 'Who is this person that's acting so dramatic? I didn’t hire anyone...'Even the facial expressions of Silas Nightingale, Ambrose Darkmore, and the other elders in the ring changed. They threw Roland grim looks and scoffed,"Why are you shouting so dramatically? Are you really so sad?!"If one didn't know better, they would have mistook Kieran for Roland's first son with the way he was wailing.Everyone knows the presence of Harrington's family at the square today was to recruit powerful martial artists for their family, but even if Kieran dies at

    BANG!BANG!BANG!Just as Kian was about to tumble out of the ring in a bloody mess, Silas Nightingale, Ambrose Darkmore, and the other elders struck him again. Two of them dragged him back to the center of the ring, leaving behind a large trail of blood, which made the hearts of the spectators bleed even more.They didn't stop there and immediately pounced on him. Within the few minutes that they began their assault, Kian was already drenched in blood. He looked motionless and utterly defeated.Meanwhile, at the area that had been designated for the Dark Legion sect, which was now occupied by the representatives of the aristocratic Harrington's family, Roland Harrington was seething furiouslyHe was on the edge and visibly frustrated. At any rate, the masked man will obviously not survive! How could he lose a gem when he just found it?

    Grimm and the other two elders who opposed the proposal had displeased and grim expressions on their faces. But Silas Nightingale paid them no attention. In his own opinion, the ten elders that chose to support his proposal and stand on his side were enough to completely defeat this masked man."Attack with no mercy!" Silas' eyes turned icy as he shouted fiercely. His words were a clear command to the other elders.Kill with no mercy!BOOM!Silas emanated a powerful murderous aura that was enough to make people tremble as he stormed towards Kian. He moved at such a lightning speed people could barely see his feet. Just then, something unexpected happened. Grimm had unsheathed his long sword and rushed down to the ring. The two other elders had also followed him down."Two of you, attack!" Grimm commanded in a low tone, brandishing his sword in the air.SWISH!The long blade surged forward and slashed at the throat of the nearest elder. The sound of slicing and piercing through fles

    Ambrose Darkmore thought long and hard before speaking. Eventually, he raised his grim face and said, "I agree with Silas' proposal."As soon as he spoke, a member of the Divine Sword sect immediately countered his decision, "Master, this is not right. It is inappropriate to—"Ambrose Darkmore's face darkened, and he snapped back in an icy tone without even allowing the man to complete his words, "Shut up! You have no right to question my decision!"The man's face turned red and shrunk back into his seat. He dared not speak anymore. Just then, another elder raised his hand. "I agree with Silas' proposal. It is time to elect a new leader for the alliance."Another elder with a huge scar nodded and raised his head. The scar on his face widened as he looked down at the ring. "Kieran is powerful. His injuries are certainly not that serious. They shouldn't affect him much.""Silas, I agree.""I also agree.""..."Each of the elders spoke one after the other, and soon, the voting results w

    "Silas, why go to such lengths?" Roland Harrington suddenly stepped forward with a dark face. "The alliance does need a new leader but why the sudden rush?"His words filled the hearts of many of Kian's new supporters with joy. They didn't expect that someone from the aristocratic Harrington's family would suddenly speak up for Kian.Not just someone. The patriarch of the family himself. At least, the aristocratic family also saw the injustice unfolding. Meanwhile, in the tent allocated to the members of the Sacred Shadow sect, Wesley had a strange expression on his face as he looked straight ahead at the middle-aged man who had just spoken up.It was strange indeed. The aristocratic Harrington's family was actually pleading for the general?!If the old man from the aristocratic Harrington's family knew that the person he was trying to plead for and win over was Kian Blackwood, the same person most if not all the aristocratic families wanted to eliminate...Would he stand there tall
