LOGINShe was even less certain by what defiant, heaven‑defying means Carl had dragged Elijah back from the brink of life and death, reshaped his soul essence, and suppressed the rampaging power within him. She never asked. She could read the faint ripples in Carl's eyes and understood that everyone carried secrets they were unwilling to bare, their own principles and forbearance. Since he chose to hide every storm himself, she tacitly chose not to probe, content to guard the quiet peace before her
She was even less certain by what defiant, heaven‑defying means Carl had dragged Elijah back from the brink of life and death, reshaped his soul essence, and suppressed the rampaging power within him. She never asked. She could read the faint ripples in Carl's eyes and understood that everyone carried secrets they were unwilling to bare, their own principles and forbearance. Since he chose to hide every storm himself, she tacitly chose not to probe, content to guard the quiet peace before her.Elijah quickly ran up to Amelia, his small body coming to a stop as he tilted up a fair, round little face. His eyes sparkled as he looked at her, his mouth splitting into a wide grin that revealed two tiny tiger teeth, adorably silly and endearing.His little hands unconsciously clenched the hem of his clothes as he bounced and swayed, unable to wait to speak to Amelia, brimming with reliance and closeness."Boss, I missed you so much." Elijah spoke brightly, his voice cr
At that time, his whole body had felt warm, with a wild yet exhilarating force surging through him.After that...Everything that came after seemed to have been shrouded by a thick layer of fog; no matter how hard he tried, he could not recall it.He did not remember why he had fainted, did not remember Mystic Vale, did not remember the Power of Chaos running rampant, and certainly did not remember the entire process of how Carl, in order to save him, had depleted his own primordial source of the heavens to reconstruct his soul shield and suppress and seal the primordial source of Chaos.In his small, simple mind, everything had completely gone blank, leaving only emptiness.The only things that remained clear were the image of his boss, the indescribable feeling lingering around Carl, and... the hollow sensation of hunger rising from his stomach.Yes, he had been hungry.Elijah blankly touched his stomach, his movements clumsy yet ad
He had even lost the courage to lift his head and look in the direction where Carl had departed.Mystic Vale struggled to crawl up from the ground, his legs still weak and trembling. He did not even dare to glance again at the Mystic Mountains. Only a single thought remained in his mind—run. Run immediately. Never again set foot in this accursed place that had shattered his soul essence.Seeing this, the subordinates who had narrowly escaped death felt as though they had been granted amnesty. They scrambled to their feet, stumbling and crawling, not bothering to retrieve their scattered weapons, not bothering to soothe their collapsing soul essence. They followed behind Mystic Vale, fleeing in panic like homeless dogs.The dense mass of people fled without direction, stumbling and falling along the way. Demon Energy scattered, malevolent energy dissipated entirely, and their former arrogance vanished without a trace, leaving only fear and disarray.
The soul essence felt as if it had been viciously clenched by an invisible giant hand; even breathing became stalled and labored, an image of extreme agony.Not far away, Mystic Vale's heart suddenly pounded wildly. Terror surged through his chest like a raging tide, nearly drowning his reason completely.Yet the greed that had long lain dormant deep in his eyes, his obsession with the treasure within Elijah's body, and the scene he had just witnessed of Carl only evading without attacking, all seized his retreating steps and dragged them back.He weighed everything frantically, repeatedly deducing possibilities in his mind.Carl had been entangled with the berserk Elijah for a long time just now, yet from beginning to end he had only evaded and never truly launched an attack, not even revealing a trace of a killing move from the heavens.In Mystic Vale's view, this was by no means due to insufficient strength. Rather, Carl must have had some unkno
The out-of-control Elijah seemed to fall into a brief haze. He needed an outlet, needed destruction, needed an opponent to appear so that he could release everything within him.At that moment, Elijah's gaze paused slightly, then slowly lifted. Those eyes, one like mist and the other like an abyss, empty of all reason, locked straight onto the figure that had long been standing at the edge of the stone platform.The closest person to him, the one with the clearest aura and the strongest sense of presence, was Carl.Carl still stood quietly with his hands behind his back, clad in a spotless black suit. His posture was detached and upright, like an eternal supreme deity overlooking this shattered world.Howling winds carried Chaos Mist and soul-devouring energy as they swept past, lifting his dark hair and stirring his clothes, yet they could never shake him in the slightest.Beneath his feet, a faint golden glow appeared and vanished like a slumberi
One had lived for thousands of years, vicious and cunning, bearing endless ferocious power, fighting without rest or death.Chaos Mist and Soul-devouring Energy had intertwined, collided, annihilated, and been reborn in madness atop the stone platform.Every collision of fists and feet shattered space and sent the earth sinking.Every clash of auras made the Three Realms tremble and the heavens thunder.Seal runes had exploded one after another, resentment from the Mystic Mountains surged skyward, winds and clouds changed color above the Ninefold Heaven, and ghosts wailed beneath the Nine Nether Hells.The battle that had once been deadlocked completely spiraled out of control.Raven and the three magical puppets were still locked in relentless slaughter in midair, golden light and malevolent energy scattering in all directions.At the center of the stone platform, Elijah and Mystic Vale were locked in a fight to the death, the heaven
"Do you think everyone here is blind?" Geoffrey frowned, turning his head to look at Reginald. "I sent you an invitation out of respect for your past work in the chamber of commerce. As a senior member, of course you wouldn't be left out. But you insisted on bringing two people who have nothing to
Meanwhile, Amelia and Carl returned to the Biltmore Hotel.As soon as Amelia opened the door to their room, she saw Elijah sitting on the bed, looking quite upset.Elijah pouted and muttered, "Boss, where did you go? Why didn't you take me with you?"Amelia paused for a moment. "I went out to take
As soon as the words were spoken, all the guests stood up and headed toward the second floor. Amelia and her companions followed the crowd.The hall on the second floor was much smaller than the one downstairs, but its decor was far more exquisite.In the center stood a small auction platform, surr
Meanwhile, the driver had already taken Reginald to a so-called 'residence.' Although it looked ordinary from the outside, there were guards stationed all around. Since arrangements had been made in advance, Reginald walked straight to a door, knocked, and a steady voice came from inside: "Come in.
