Chapter 2721
"Come on, Adrian!" Lyra urged Adrian, her face pale.They ran into Thalia and her group as soon as they came down from Cloud Puff Mountain. Had it not been for Frederick and the others’ arrival, they might not have gotten away from Thalia. When Adrian noticed that no one was coming, he slowed down. However, Lyra remained vigilant and continued to urge him to move faster. After a while, they were within the vicinity of Mudstone Village. When they arrived at the village entrance, several villagers noticed them and were shocked to see them covered in blood."What happened? Did you two run into beasts or something?" a middle-aged woman asked, approaching Lyra with concern and grabbing her hand.Lyra breathed a sigh of relief upon having returned to her village, but she was unsure of how to answer the woman’s questions. After all, Adrian had just killed several people from Blade's Reach. Though the three villages had conflicts during their annual expeditions into the secret realm, they

Lyra led Adrian back to her home. When her mother saw Lyra return, she burst into tears. Lyra had slipped out of the house the day before, causing her mother to worry all night. Considering the perilous events of today, those concerns were justified. If not for a fortunate turn of events, she and Adrian might have met their demise in Cloud Puff Mountain.When Sion saw Lyra, he was first relieved, and then a surge of rage washed over him. After scolding Lyra, he grounded her to her room, ordering her not to step out for the next month except for meals.Then, he sat with Adrian and asked, "What happened? Did you find Blade's Reach’s treasure?"Adrian shook his head. He could lie to the villagers, but deceiving Sion or the village chief was a risk he was not willing to take."Elio wanted to kill me, so I killed him," Adrian replied.Sion fell silent. Adrian's unexpected honesty left him at a loss for words."We then continued with the search. Though Frederick didn't attack me, I kne

When the pair got back to Mudstone, it was barely evening. However, Sion did not return from the village chief's residence even after night fell.Lyra walked out of her room, looking anxiously in the direction of the chief's place."Why are you out here? Go back to your room!" Lyra's mother shouted.Lyra’s mother, Jess, was usually of few words. Adrian had not heard her speak much, and she would not initiate conversations with him. However, she was noticeably more talkative today due to her worry for Lyra.Upon hearing Jess’ words, Lyra returned to her room with a sulky expression.Jess glanced coldly at Adrian, wishing that he would disappear from her home. She was already distressed that her husband had been selected for the expedition to the secret realm this year, and Adrian's unexplained appearance just made things worse for her family. She believed that he was the one who led her daughter astray. Otherwise, Lyra would not have sneaked out and nearly died in the process.Adr

Adrian smiled bitterly at the thought.While Adrian was strategizing on this side, something was happening in the chief's residence.“What is that?" Sion asked. The chief got up from his cushion and gazed up at the roof. This was a familiar aura, and in an instant, he sensed who it was. Like Adrian, he could detect the identity of the attacker through flowing light."I'll go check it out," the chief said with a relaxed smile.Although that person was like a god to them, times had changed. He was no longer the feeble ant he was two centuries ago, and the other party was not as terrifying as the legends suggested. Since that was the case, there was nothing to fear.Walking out of his house, the chief looked toward the direction of the light and swiftly flew toward it.Sion exited too, his expression dark. He had just been discussing with the chief concerning Adrian, and before they could reach a conclusion, they were attacked. Gazing at the sky, he sensed that Adrian’s arrival wa

These villagers were nothing to him compared to the countless treasures in his house. "I'll say it one last time. Leave, or I will kill you," the chief said, his expression turning darker with every passing second. "If you were as confident as you appeared, you wouldn't ask me to leave. I know you well," Thalia said."So, are you determined to be enemies with my village?" "Hah! You insects have been hiding near my residence for years, stealing who knows how many things from me. It's time for me to take them back!" Thalia retorted.While Thalia confronted the chief, her two underlings entered the village. Adrian, who had come out earlier, sensed the two formidable auras at the village entrance. He looked around, knowing that it was time for him to leave."Run, Adrian! That monstrous girl must be here to capture you!" Lyra shouted to Adrian through the window in her room.Adrian nodded. Just as he was about to turn and leave, he heard a commotion behind him. It was the sound of

Someone behind Adrian spoke in a deep voice.The feeling of being at the mercy of others was extremely unpleasant. So after Adrian heard the conversation between the two, he turned around and attacked one of them. He was not one to tolerate being at the mercy of others. He would do anything to survive. No matter how slim the chances of success were, Adrian would not give up as long as there was a glimmer of hope.The person blocking Adrian drew the Lunar Edge from around his waist and growled with gritted teeth, "You’re seeking death!" In his eyes, Adrian was just an eight-level weakling. Although this level of strength would be considered peerless in the outside world, as the chief of the Mudstone Village said to Thalia, things were different here. Adrian's strength was far inferior to theirs and was thus doomed."That sword is wasted in your hands." Adrian sneered. His figure flashed, and he appeared beside one of the attackers.Clang!There was a clash of blades. Adrian's str

Meanwhile, in a mysterious location…"It's been over two hundred years. I didn't expect you to be able to contend with me now." Thalia smiled coldly, appearing relaxed.But anyone could see that the battle with Fynn Collier, Mudstone Village’s chief, was not easy. The pressure on Thalia was immense as her current combat power was below that of a warlord. She had no intention of killing Fynn but to delay him as much time as possible so that her subordinates could capture Adrian."Stop spouting nonsense. I know what you're thinking. You just want to delay me, don't you?" Fynn said.Thalia paused for a moment, then asked coldly, "Since you know this, why aren’t you going to save that kid?""Hehe, he will prove useless to me if he gets captured by your men. I want to see him get away in one piece on his own. Otherwise, how do I know if he’s worth my investment?" Fynn said with a cold smile.Thalia's expression suddenly turned gloomy. Fynn had already seen through her plans and was us

Thalia didn't know if this was a scene from the past or the future, but whatever the case, she was determined to kill Adrian right here and now. She didn’t know if she would ever have such an opportunity again."Since you've seen through my intentions, how about we make a deal?" After a moment of contemplation, Thalia began to negotiate with Fynn."A deal?" Fynn’s eyes lit up with interest.Although Thalia hated Fynn—even more than she did Adrian—she suppressed her feelings. This guy had been a Warlord all his life. He was far inferior to her during her peak. But Adrian was different, so she had to deal with Adrian first."I'll give you ten treasures if you let me take Adrian.""Only ten?" Fynn said, clearly unsatisfied with this number.After a moment of silence, Thalia said, "Thirty, and that's my final offer."She felt somewhat distressed. Over the years, her treasure trove had been plundered by these three villages. She didn't know how many items had been stolen. It must hav
