LOGIN"You have nothing to worry about, Dad! I'm sure things will work out just fine!" Lucia exclaimed. But in fact, she knew better than anyone that Xavion's health was steadily worsening by the day.Given the current predicament of being surrounded by adversarial factions, Xavion could still manage to hold them off for a while longer. However, the moment he showed the slightest vulnerability, those factions would instantly launch an assault—especially the Heavenly Medical Pavilion, which was just waiting for the right moment to strike."I certainly hope that is the case. I can only hope that a true, peerless talent will show themselves today," Xavion said slowly.Lucia's eyes narrowed slightly as she subconsciously glanced in Ashton's direction. She couldn't shake the feeling that he was different from the rest, even though she couldn't quite put her finger on what it was. She murmured to herself, "I wonder if this man intends to participate… I mean, he's definitely good-looking..
With a single statement, Xavion entirely catalyzed the fervor of the venue. Their roars and wild cheers erupted everywhere, pushing the hype to an absolute extreme. Those experts were eager to give it a try, and the looks they directed at Lucia were filled with aggression and desire.It was clear to everyone that this was a golden opportunity for instant success and a perfect chance to win fame and renown. They could secure both a beautiful woman and immense power at once, as long as the person possessed sufficient strength. It was an overwhelming temptation that simply no one could resist."I'll be the first one!"In that instant, a semi-divine realm expert shot up onto the arena, his garments fluttering dramatically. He then bowed slightly toward Xavion and said, "I'm Huxley Churchell, and I'd like to pay my respects to you, Lord Mott!""How impressive—actually possessing such strength at such a young age!" Xavion remarked with approval.Upon hearing that, Huxley felt a surge
"Xavion is formidable—perhaps no weaker than Callum…" Ashton quickly arrived at his assessment. But just as Xena had analyzed, Xavion was too old and had already passed his prime. With each passing day, his condition deteriorated further. He mused that this tournament to recruit a husband for Lucia was, in all probability, an actual preparation for the future.He felt even more confident about securing a partnership with Xavion after reflecting on this, since they would ultimately face the same enemy.He turned toward Lucia, who was sitting beside Xavion. He widened his eyes at first glance as flames ignited deep within his eyes. He could feel the Drakell technique within him erupting into an uncontrollable riot, circulating through his internal organs, while his Drakeborne lineage grew immensely hot, resembling a kindled flame. He then heard a voice screaming from the depths of his soul, telling him to claim Lucia—the most beautiful woman in Central Region—at all costs.Luc
Ashton had barely set foot in Centraxis when he saw a crowd moving with great urgency, all hastening toward a single destination—and among them were quite a few extremely powerful martial arts experts."Is the martial arts tournament taking place today?" Ashton murmured. He followed the crowd after a brief moment of hesitation. He wanted to see for himself what this tournament was really about. Based on what he knew about Xavion, there was bound to be a deeper motive behind everything the man did.It was then that someone in the crowd asked in confusion, "Why is Lord Mott in such a rush to find a husband for Lucia?""I heard that it's because Lord Mott's health is failing. I mean, just think about it—he is the Lord of the Central Region. If something were to happen to him and there were no powerful martial arts expert to step in and inherit his authority, his daughter and household would be left entirely vulnerable."In addition, the significance of this martial arts tournament e
Ashton was startled. "Xavion is looking for a husband for Lucia?"Xena said softly, "You should know that Lucia is the most beautiful woman in Central Region, with countless suitors. "You see, I heard they are using a martial arts tournament to choose the husband this time. In my opinion, Xavion intends to exploit this opportunity to enlist gifted martial arts experts for his own purposes."Ashton nodded faintly, remaining largely indifferent to the suggestion. He harbored no inclination to become Xavion's son-in-law, nor did he wish to engage with Lucia, the most beautiful woman in Central Region. He preferred to persuade Xavion by offering absolute mutual benefits. After all, tangible advantages were all that mattered."Xavion greatly cherishes his only daughter, so I suspect his time is almost up, and he's trying to find a man powerful enough to protect her. Who else but you could be worthy across the entire Central Region, Master?"Xena's eyes lit up with excitement as she
Xena's gaze turned gentle and intoxicating as she pressed her delicate body against Ashton, using her slender hands to wander across Ashton's body. She looked completely ready to be claimed, a delicate sight that no one would ever associate with the ruler of Lavora's criminal underworld, displaying such a submissive and alluring side.Xena's heart pounded wildly in her chest, a mix of pure adrenaline and anticipation. She couldn't help but feel her heart sink as she noticed Ashton shifting his posture, deliberately maintaining a distance from her. Ashton's gaze betrayed neither emotion nor desire, completely disregarding her self-offering without demonstrating a single hint of interest.Xena turned pale. She cast a glance downward at her cleavage and asked with a trace of resentment, "Do you find me repulsive, Master?""No," Ashton replied as he swept a glance at the alluring Xena. She was undeniably an extremely attractive woman with a captivating charm, but at the moment, he
"What about my chills syndrome…" Samantha trailed off."I'll look for you in two days," Ashton calmly replied.Tonight was his time with Martha. He wasn't going to let an irrelevant person get in their way."Alright then…" Samantha had no choice but to accept that.But moments later, she nervous
Rudy emphasized the fact that this was Flint's decision, his tone subtly threatening."I won't do it! I won't accept this!" Elise held her ground and refused outright.Both Rudy and Emmett were stunned. They hadn't expected her to refuse so quickly. Wasn't it said that Blossom Hall was entirely un
The food looked good and smelled amazing as well, whetting everyone's appetite."You're a superstar, Martie! You shouldn't be making supper for some stupid man!"Samantha couldn't understand why Martha was so hopelessly in love with Ashton. Did he cast some kind of spell on her?"I'll cook for hi
When Ashton's voice reached the ears of everyone in Blossom Hall, the women all shuddered. They couldn't resist looking at him.They had to admit that he gave off a very dominant air of masculinity, which made him completely different from the usual pretty-boy types. He seemed to give off a ton of
