2025-02-06 00:01:11At the Carter Family home.
Veronica was lying on the ground. Her eyes were blank. She looked dishevelled. Her face was full of sweat and her hair was dishevelled.
She did not know how many times she had been attacked by the Lotus Energy. She also did not know how she had survived.
She only knew that every two hours, she would feel a sharp pain. The pain would also increase each time it happened.
She didn't know how much longer she could last.
There was only one thing on Veronica's mind. Even if she had to die, she would not compromise.
She was willing to die for Bryce.
At first the Carter Family members were relieved that it wasn't them. However, they are now impressed by Veronica's persistence.
Although they did not experience the pain that Veronica suffered, they could feel how much pain she was in.
They also didn't expect Veronica to last so long.
What has kept him going until now?

Trevon was surprised to see Bryce easily annihilate his Lotus Energy.Lotus Energy is only used to torture and not to attack.However, the technique is not something that can be destroyed by just anyone.Bryce is not an easy opponent.That's what Trevon thought.Suddenly, Bryce said to him, "Are you ready to die now?"His expression was gloomy.Trevon is an Intermediate Stage Expert.Bryce is not an easy opponent.But in Trevon's eyes, Bryce was still nothing."You are the one who seems ready to die now. Anyway, I will kill you. Killing you can cheer me up and killing Rey will make me happy." Trevon said in a cold tone to Bryce.The Carter family also looked at Bryce with disdain.The young man was still arrogant.They did not expect someone at the Advanced level to say such things to Trevon.The Grandfather of the Red Lotus Clan would make Bryce die a horrible death."Looks like

With a stern face and well-built physique, the middle-aged man exudes a strong and authoritative aura.He placed both hands behind his back and looked straight at Bryce.However, he did not answer Bryce's question.There was a look of shock on her face mixed with admiration for Bryce.The middle-aged man said, "Great. At first, I didn't believe a young man could defeat Hector, an Intermediate Stage Expert."However, you can do it. Young man, you are talented. You are the most talented young man I have ever met. Would you like to be my apprentice?"The middle-aged man seemed to mean it.He had just witnessed how Bryce defeated Trevon.Trevon was a Middle Stage Expert, but Bryce easily defeated him, meaning that Bryce could become a Late Stage Expert.It was rare for a Late Stage Expert to be that young. Bryce was far stronger than the legendary greats descended from wealthy families.that's why the middle-aged man was so enthusiastic.He was determined to make Bryce his student.He bel

Brandon regretted saying it.His skills are not perfect. that's why he is not as great as the previous Jagoan.If he could improve his skills, he would not only become stronger. He also has a chance to break through to the Expert level.Hence, he is eager to improve his skills.However, he thinks Bryce is just bragging. Bryce may know some secrets, but he is incapable of perfecting the skills of others.No one can do it.Brandon had never heard of anyone in the world who could do that.To perfect a martial art is to create a new one. It requires a deep understanding of martial arts.Even the great champions of old could barely do it.After all, those techniques were passed down from long ago. Perhaps the previous champions who invented them were the ones who could do it.However, Brandon is so eager to perfect his skills that he ignores that fact and falls into Bryce's trap.He then said to Bryce with a loo

After Brandon and Bryce exchanged phone numbers, Brandon left.Later, Bryce returned to the Carter Family home."Bryce."Not long after entering, Bryce heard a familiar voice.Bryce wondered who was calling him.Bryce frowned and saw Marella approaching him in a respectful manner with a smile.Inevitably, he was shocked.What's going on?Since becoming a member of the Carter Family, Marella has always considered Bryce a coward. She never respected Bryce.But he was reluctant to ask why Marella treated him with respect.He didn't know what Marella was thinking, but he didn't care.If Marella dared to toy with him, he would expose her foul plans.After seeing Bryce's silence, Marella asked, "Where have you been? Everyone is waiting for you.""Why are they waiting for me?" Bryce was confused.Marella didn't answer, but shouted into the house, "Grandpa, Bryce is home."Finley soon left the house with the Carter Family."Bryce, my grandson.""Bryce.""Here you are."***The Carter family g

Bryce's shouting woke Veronica from her reverie."Yes?"Veronica looked up at Bryce.Bryce was just about to speak when Veronica suddenly trembled and held her head with a paled face.Bryce suddenly became nervous and hurriedly said, "Veronica, take a deep breath. Take a deep breath."it is the effect of Lotus Energy.Veronica did as Bryce said and began to take deep breaths.Sure enough, the pain in his head gradually disappeared and he looked better.Bryce breathed a sigh of relief and explained, "This is the effect of the Lotus Energy. It won't last long. When you feel pain, just take a deep breath.""Thank you."Veronica nodded and hugged Bryce tightly. With tears in her eyes, she said, "Bryce, thank you. I don't know what would have happened without you.""Calm down. It's all over. Don't think about it too much."Bryce stroked Veronica's back.Veronica felt so comfortable and safe in Bryc

Veronica gasped in shock and looked at Bryce in disbelief."Bryce, what do you mean, you're joking, right?"Veronica got up and started to panic.The café-goers took noticeVeronica and turned to observe them."Veronica, sit down. Calm down and listen to me." Bryce sighed and said so.Veronica slowly sat back down, but did not take her eyes off Bryce in the slightest."You know this is not my place. I came from a distant place. I was chased by my enemies and seriously injured three years ago. So, I fled here. Now my relatives and friends are suffering because of those haughty enemies of mine. I must return and take revenge on them." Bryce explained his reasoning to Veronica in detail.Veronica was somewhat surprised after hearing Bryce's excuse.She realised that the important thing that Bryce wanted to convey was to return to take revenge on his enemy."Bryce, I thought the most important thing in my life was being the head of the Carter Family. However, I recently realised that you

Veronica and Bryce came out.The people waiting outside immediately swarmed around them."Hello, Miss. My name is Lucas Vance, a fitness trainer. What's your name? Do you want to be friends with me?""I'm Jimmy Carrey. I'm the Deputy Director of the Fairy Troupe in Umbrella City. Can we have dinner together?""I'm Hugh Lester. I'm the boss of a five-star hotel. May I have your phone number?"They crowded around Veronica and tried to give her their business cards.Veronica was in a bad mood because she felt disturbed.As her anger peaked, something suddenly occurred to Veronica and she looked at Bryce with sparkling eyes. She said to the men, "I will accept your request if I can defeat him in a fight."Everyone feels happy when they hear her.They don't deserve that beautiful woman if they understand what Veronica means.Veronica is probably angry with Bryce and wants them to help her teach him a lesson.The
The Understated Dominance Husband Chapter 228: Studying the Situation
Bryce knew nothing about Yarl City. He decided to ask the locals about the town and specifically about the Great King's Mausoleum.He looked around and walked into a pub.Pubs are gathering places for many gangs that can offer valuable information.The pub consisted of a three-storey wooden building. Several people dressed in strange clothes kept entering the pub.Bryce came in.On the first floor, there were no empty seats.Humans, Champions and Knights are gathered here.Some vendors are selling their wares here.A waiter greeted Bryce kindly, "Just by yourself, sir? Follow me."The waiter took Bryce to a seat on the second floor by the window.There weren't many people on the second floor and it wasn't too noisy.After ordering, Bryce asked the waiter, "Tell me about Yarl City."He put some money on the table.The waitress smiled and took the money. Then, she asked kindly, "Sir, would you like to know about nearby tourist attractions?"The town of Yarl was a famous tourist town tha

"I'm just asking."Bryce smiled.Hearing that, Brewster was relieved. He said, "Don't try to break into this place. Only Mr Shaw knows where the Ancient Herb Garden is actually located. In fact, the royal family who discovered the Ancient Herb Garden had already signed a confidentiality agreement.Bryce smiled back and said nothing more.It was not difficult for him to find out the location. He just needed to find Gary or the Dukes of the royal family and interrogate them.However, it was not an urgent matter as he needed to stay in this Yarl City to find out his origins. So, he decided to wait for the start of the selection.At the same time, Brewster received a text message.After he read the text message, he told Bryce, "Mr Milano, your place is ready. Follow me."Then, they returned to the Sword Skill School and headed for several residences.The residences are not spacious.Each is only about three or four hu

Hearing this, Allen looked angry.However, after a while, she smiled awkwardly and said, "Bryce, I'm just kidding. I'm just joking. Since you are already a teacher at the Sword Skills School, we will be colleagues from now on. We will meet every day. Just forget what I said earlier."Allen is a teacher at the Sword Skills School and he has so many students.If he knelt down and apologised to Bryce now, he would definitely become the joke of the Sword Skills School for all time.Bryce didn't say anything, but his gaze turned cold."Allen is really shameless. Already lost the bet, now he's acting like nothing happened.""If Bryce had lost, he wouldn't have let Bryce go.""Allen is annoying. How can someone like that be a good teacher?"The people who were there also criticised Allen."Allen, don't embarrass us. I am the one who is ashamed of what you have done. Kneel down and apologise to Bryce."Brewster shouted at Allen in excitement."Mr Miller, you've lost the bet. Do you want to em
Amazement and Awe
Brewster was dumbfounded. He did not expect Bryce to agree to his request.Bryce is very stubborn.He still accepted the challenge, no matter how difficult it was.In her opinion, Bryce must be an arrogant person because he is talented in Sword Skills and is easily provoked when others provoke him.However, why would he choose to take the risk if he could play it safe?It didn't seem like a wise move. Everyone looked at Bryce in surprise, then shook their heads.Although talented in Sword Skills, he shouldn't act that arrogant.Doesn't he know that the higher he flies, the greater the pain if he falls?If he lost, he would suffer the consequences. Hearing Bryce's words, Allen burst out laughing."You already agreed to it. I've agreed too. If you win, I will kneel down to you and apologise."Allen was convinced that there was no way Bryce could refine his martial arts techniques to Expert Phase in just an hour, so he agreed without hesitation.After saying that, Allen's smile suddenly
Cheer Support
"Ruben."Allen rushed over to Ruben to check on his condition.The audience erupted in applause.Owen could not resist standing up and clapping for Bryce."Absolute genius.""Bryce is great. There will be other talented masters at the Sword Skills School."Brewster also stood up and applauded sincerely.A roar of applause filled the entire hall.All participants applauded without exception.Bryce's outstanding performance impressed them.They had questioned Bryce's talent and ability, even suggesting that he was not a master.However, they were surprised to learn that Bryce was so talented. They admired Bryce."Bryce is strong, but nothing compared to the talents from other departments." Bonnie said spitefully in the corner of the hall.However, Bonnie actually recognised Bryce's ability.Owen slowly stood up and walked towards the arena, then called out, "I hereby announce that the tea

"Where's your sword? Hurry up and take it out. Otherwise, people will think I'm bullying you."Ruben was surprised to see that Bryce was not carrying any weapons."Sword?"Bryce smiled faintly. He clenched his fists and used his Internal Force to pick up the branch that had thrown him to the floor."Do you want to fight me with that branch?"Ruben's face became grim.Ruben thought that Bryce was patronising him."I have a sword in my heart, so everything can be my sword." Bryce said faintly."What are you showing off for?"Ruben was angry. "You're showing off for being talented in Sword Skills."However, if you dare to show off in our fight, I will make you regret it."All your words are nonsense."Ruben started to move after finishing his sentence.He pointed his sword at Bryce.Bryce smiled faintly as Ruben's sword was about to stab him. Bryce picked up the branch.Ruben looked at him contemptuously.Ruben initially thought that Bryce could demonstrate his Sword Skill techniques wit
Admiration
The roar of the swords filled the air, as if they wanted to rebel from their owner's grasp.All the participants exchanged confused and anxious looks.They didn't know what had happened.Everyone started thinking about what was really going on in their minds.The crowd gasped, suddenly turning their heads towards Bryce in unison.After Bryce performed his technique, strange things began to happen.It was because Bryce had mastered all the techniques and reached the Expert Phase.It was only natural that Bryce was recognised as a genius in Sword Skills.The weapons have energy and they want a strong owner.Bryce's strength was great enough to pull those weapons. All the weapons were eager to serve Bryce.The three judges widened their eyes in disbelief."Is this the Expert Phase?" Owen muttered."Mr Woolley, do you think Bryce is amazing? Genius. Would you believe that Bryce could reach the Expert Phase just by reading a book once? Oh, my goodness." Brewster said excitedly. Allen was s
Unpleasant Treatment
As soon as they entered, they noticed Bryce.Bryce was still too young. There was no doubt that he stood out the most among the few Brawlers who took the exam. It was hard to ignore him.They also doubted Bryce's strength and wondered if Bryce was an Expert.However, this will only be known once the second round begins.If Bryce did not have the strength of an Expert and came to play around, Bryce would receive severe punishment.Hence, they all just observed Bryce without harbouring any dislike for him.However, when they saw that Bryce was just randomly flipping through books and not cultivating Sword Skill techniques, they became angry.According to them, Bryce did not pay attention to the exam at all.They think Bryce is just playing around here.They considered Bryce's behaviour to be disrespectful to the Yarl City Martial Arts Institute.At this time, Brewster who was in charge of the first round of the exam asked Bryce, "Why don't you cultivate the Sword Skill technique?""I've
Trials
The next day.Bryce came to the Yarl City Martial Arts Institute again. He came to take the Sword Skills instructor selection exam.Bryce came here for two reasons.The first is to explore the Ancient Herb Garden.The second and most important thing is to find out his identity.Bryce wanted to investigate the totem.Bryce believed that the pattern on the school badge of the Yarl City Institute of Martial Arts was the same as the pattern on the small altar Bryce saw in the Great King's Mausoleum. it was not a coincidence.Therefore, Bryce wanted to enter the Yarl City Martial Arts Institute to find out the truth.At the same time, a woman wearing work clothes stood at the door.Bryce approached him and asked, "Where is the location of the Sword Skills teacher exam?""Do you want to take part in our school's Sword Skills teacher exam?"The woman was shocked.The woman's name was Bonnie Carter. She was in charge of receiving people taking the Sword Skills teacher exam at the door.The pe
Information
"If we join the Carter Royal Family, what kind of status will I get?" Veronica asked after weighing up the good and bad.If she had many advancement opportunities within the Carter Royal Family, she would have been willing to take them.However, if she could only become a marginalised figure after joining the Carter Royal Family, there would be no point in joining."You seem to be quite ambitious."Jaime instantly understood Veronica's thoughts and said with a smile, "The Carter Royal Family treats everyone equally and values the talented. As long as you have the ability, you will be rewarded, and even have the opportunity to run for leadership in the future."To get Veronica to join the Carter Royal Family, Jaime added some tantalising conditions.After all, it's just a verbal promise, it won't affect anything.Veronica was rather excited after hearing Jaime's words.Veronica believes that she can continue to be stronger and achieve a lot within the Carter Royal Family as long as she
