The leader spurted out a mouthful of blood and died on the spot. "He's dead! He was a high-level fighter at the first stage of the Celestial Forge Stage! How could he be killed so easily? Who is that man?!" one of the men in black clothes shouted."You can't blame me. He was the one who wanted to kill me first. I believe you all are reasonable people, right?" Adrian smiled, but he was aware that reasoning with these people was futile. Just as he expected, one of the men in black clothes glared at him and shouted, "How dare you kill one of us, you brat! You're gonna pay for what you did!" "You better be careful, young man," the man in green clothes said.Adrian glanced at him and said, "Thank you, but these scoundrels are nothing to fear."He looked at the group in black and brandished his sword again. In an instant, their faces turned pale, and several miserable screams rang out. More than half of the men in black clothes in the area had been eliminated, leaving only a few pal
After that, the man led Adrian back to their place. Along the way, Adrian learned that the man's name was Lamar Weber, and he belonged to the Weber family. The Webers were a tribe in this region. However, they were not clear about the name of the region, and they just referred to it as the "Dragon Domain.”Adrian believed this place was likely the legendary burial ground of the nine dragons. It seemed he had come to the right place. He just had not expected humans to inhabit this place."Speaking of which, wouldn't this mean that I made the Shermans your enemies since I killed those people?" Adrian asked.Lamar glanced at him and shook his head. He let out a bitter smile and said, "You don't need to worry about that. After all, they're already our enemies." Adrian asked, "What's going on? And it seems like they have been chasing after you. Why is that?"Lamar looked into the distance and said, "It's because of wealth and treasures.""Wealth and treasures?" Adrian asked. Lamar
“Mr. Adrian—"Before Lamar could finish, Adrian interjected, "Don't worry. I'll handle this."Seeing Adrian stepping forward, the Shermans were enraged. One of them said angrily, "Who do you think you are, kid?!" Adrian replied with a smile, "I'm the murderer you're looking for."The Shermans were momentarily surprised that Adrian had stepped forward. They glared at him and said, "Alright then. We've been looking for you for a long time, and we didn't expect you to step up voluntarily. Prepare to die!"With those words, they charged at Adrian. "It seems like you have no idea who you're messing with, you arrogant fools!" Adrian said. Suddenly, the entire area was engulfed in a menacing atmosphere, and all of the attackers were horrified. "What... What is this..." Before they could do anything, the sword in Adrian's hand turned into a streak of light and came straight at them."Shit! Defend yourselves!" one of them exclaimed in horror. At the same time, he mustered up his
"Alright," Lamar began to say, "We should repay kindness with kindness. What's more, you saved my life. Though I may not be a good person, I'm someone who knows how to repay kindness. I don't have much to offer in return, but I can show you three items I’ve acquired. If there's anything you like, feel free to take it as a token of my gratitude."With that, Lamar took out an emblem from his pocket. It was goldenn color, finely crafted, and adorned with intricate patterns. It seemed to belong to a person of considerable taste and likely held great significance."What's this?" Adrian asked."This emblem belongs to a powerful fighter of the past," Lamar replied."Ah, I see." Adrian nodded. After setting the emblem aside, Lamar produced a damaged dagger. Unlike an ordinary dagger, it bore signs of age and wear. Despite its worn exterior though, it exuded an exceptional aura. One could see at a single glance that it was a treasured item."This is a damaged ancient dagger. I'm not enti
If it weren't for their strikingly similar features, signaling that they were siblings, others would surely assume there was something going on between them."Enough! We have a guest!" Lamar said. It was only then the girl realized another man was standing beside Lamar. She stuck out her tongue at Lamar before directing her attention to Adrian. Upon seeing him, her expression shifted to one of disappointment as if something she had been eagerly anticipating did not meet her expectations."He’s the one who saved you, Lamar?" the girl asked in disbelief. The girl before Adrian was Lamar's sister, Pamela Weber. Lamar had mentioned that Pamela had a great admiration for strong people and was eagerly awaiting Adrian's arrival. However, it seemed to Adrian that Pamela was rather disappointed when she saw him. After all, Adrian looked frail and delicate, not at all like someone who could defeat those from the Sherman family."Mind your words, Pamela!" Lamar scolded, "If it weren't for
"Okay, thank you." Adrian nodded, grateful to have a place to stay. Moreover, the Webers were fairly well off, and their house was much better than those of ordinary families. Adrian saw no need to ask for anything more."Mr. Adrian, it wasn’t easy for me to get back here alive. I believe my father has been worried for a long time, so I need to report to him. You rest for now. If you need anything, just ask the servants or find Pam," Lamar said."My room isn't far from yours. If you need anything, just shout my name," Pamela added.“Okay."The siblings exited the room. Once they were gone, Adrian carefully inspected the room's furnishings. It was decorated with antique bronze wood furniture adorned with intricate patterns. The furnishings were simple yet they exude an air of grandeur. It was evident that the Webers were wealthy.A sarcastic voice rang out from behind Adrian while he was admiring the room. "You’re the guest Lamar brought back?"Turning around, Adrian saw a young
Before Rudolph could finish his sentence, Adrian punched him in the face.Rudolph’s face swelled up as blood dripped from the corner of his mouth. Adrian had no intention of confronting Rudolf since the latter was weak. However, Rudolph’s words were too disrespectful and infuriating. Even someone as patient as Adrian could not tolerate being insulted. Since Rudolf refused to back down, he might as well teach him a lesson.Besides, he would not have ended up here if he hadn’t saved Lamar. Even if Lamar blamed him, Adrian would not regret his actions.*"So, you're saying this young man saved you from the Shermans?" Frosch seemed skeptical as he listened to Lamar's report."Yes, Father. He's now resting in the guest room. I can bring him here so you can meet him," Lamar replied respectfully.Suddenly, a panicked voice came from outside the room. "Mr. Frosch! Something bad happened!"Frosch Weber raised his head and saw a servant rushing into the room."What's the matter?""Mr. R
"Are you planning to attack me?" Adrian asked coldly.Although the group were terrified by Adrian's swift victory over Rudolf, they were Rudolf's subordinates and dared not retreat without his command."Do you guys want to die that badly?" Adrian asked again. He took a step forward, and simultaneously, a surge of power emanated from him. Even though he did not fully unleash it, his energy was still strong enough to make everyone in the vicinity cower in fear."What's going on here?"A sharp voice interrupted the standoff. At the same time, a powerful pressure descended upon them and Adrian felt a chill down his spine. Following the direction of the voice, he saw a figure slowly coming toward them. As the man approached the group, the oppressive aura emanating from him became palpable, announcing him as an extremely formidable person.Frosch had an imposing demeanor, and his presence made it difficult for those around him to breathe. However, Adrian did not appear too intimidated.
