Coldly, Nox snapped, "Do you have any complaints about that?""I—No, don't take this the wrong way!" Felicia waved her hands quickly. "But at least tell me why you killed them. I need to answer to my sect leader."Nox snorted. "My killings have nothing to do with Blathanna Sect, so there's nothing you need to answer to.""You're going to face the Flames alone? They're a big family, after all. They have a dozen Zen Realm sorcerers, and their members are equally powerful." Felicia's eyes were the size of saucers as she spoke.Nox roared with laughter."What are you laughing at? I was telling the truth." Felicia was confused.Nox turned around. With confidence, he said, "You're right. Not only will I face the Flames alone, but I will also face the whole lot of Curseland Five. From the moment I came, this land is destined to witness bloodshed. I will slaughter Curseland Five with my own hands."Inexplicably, Felicia trembled. Staring at Nox with widened eyes, she felt that he wasn't
In the lobby, many men eyed Felicia lasciviously the moment she appeared. She was a voluptuous woman, after all. Moreover, after Nox tore her clothes apart, she was covered in nothing but a towel, revealing her shoulders and part of her chest. As she walked down the stairs and across the lobby, she caught the eye of all the men going around. Even the bellhops couldn't tear their eyes away."Ms. Felicia!" A dozen supermodel-like ladies ran up to Felicia. They were Blathanna Sect's girls, of course.When a long-haired girl saw that Felicia was only covered with a towel, she asked in surprise, "What happened to your clothes?""That guy tore it off," Felicia said dismissively.The ladies were speechless."Ms. Felicia, did he…" The long-haired girl was startled."I know what you're thinking, girl. No. Nobody can fuck me that easily." Felicia rolled her eyes."So why did he tear your clothes off? And you're only covered in a towel," another girl asked.Felicia sighed. "Because I wa
"So, what next, Ms. Felicia? The guy killed a Flame family elder and an heir in front of us. The Flames aren't just going to twiddle their thumbs. They're going to think the guy works for us. I can feel a war coming," a smart girl said."Sofia's right. We can't clear this up, so I'll have to tell the leader immediately," Felicia said."What about the handsome guy?" Sofia pointed at the hotel.Felicia mulled over it for a moment. "You three stay here. Keep an eye on him, but don't get close to him. And don't cross him, no matter what. He's extremely dangerous.""Got it."Felicia gave the three guards a few pointers before she left. And then, only three Blathanna Sect ladies were left to guard the place.…A pair of stone lions stood in front of the entrance to a manor spanning a thousand acres wide in the southwest. An old door painted in red stood between the lion statues. There was a plaque hanging over the entrance which read, 'The Flames.'This was the Flames' base of operat
Darius smiled eerily. "If it's war you want, then don't stop until you've destroyed all of your enemies. Make sure no traces of Blathanna Sect are left behind, except Selina. They say her beauty rivals that of a goddess. And some claim she's Lord Nox's mistress."Darius licked his lips as he radiated an evil air. "I have to sample a taste of someone like her." Darius had two great interests in his life—life force and women.Though the man was a hundred years old, he had two dozen concubines in his harem, and all of them were young.The elders promised, "Don't worry, clan head. We'll slaughter Blathanna Sect but keep Selina alive.""Good." Darius chortled.A burly, tanned elder growled, "Listen up, Flames. You have a mission. Slaughter Blathanna Sect and leave no survivors.""Yes, sir!"…Nox had no idea a war was coming. Night fell. Feeling hungry, Jebediah came down for supper. He noticed the Blathanna Sect trio standing in the lobby at once."Blathanna Sect. Why are they h
The battle raged on. About more than a handful of the Flames' fighters had died, but the rest pressed on, undeterred."More than twenty of you and only three of them! Useless, all of you!" an old man said. He was gaunt and had an abnormally small head, but his eyes gleamed with an evil gaze.He looked at the fallen fighters coldly and sneered. The old man turned into a blur and leaped into the battlefield. Noticing a black silhouette quickly coming closer amidst the fierce battle in the hall, Sofia shouted, "Look out!"She leaped backward, swinging her daggers. Blasts of energy charged ahead, but they didn't hit the old man. He chortled and spread his palm, from which green needles shot into the air.Shocked, Sofia quickly held her weapons before her, defending herself. The needles were deflected, but one of her comrades was not that lucky. A couple of needles hit her chest, and she spewed black blood.The lady convulsed like a possessed woman before falling to the ground. A momen
"W-Who are you?"Nox ignored him. He turned around and looked at Sofia. "Is he with the Curseland Five?"Sofia nodded almost robotically. "Yes.""Then they must die," Nox murmured. He made hand seals with his right hand, and the rampaging air current turned into a mountainous sword made of air. Nox pointed it at his enemies. "Kill them."The air sword charged forward and bore a hole through the Flames' fighters before they could even scream. They died.Shocked that Nox destroyed all his men with a single blow, the old man let out a strangled scream. "By the gods…" He then clapped his hands and shot more poison-tinged needles at Nox before turning to escape.Yet, there was no escape from Nox. He pointed the air sword at his enemy, and the weapon zipped through the air. The needles were blasted away, and the sword stabbed itself through the old man's throat.Blood spurted from the old man's throat. He held his neck tightly but to no avail. In the end, he dropped dead in a pool of
'He wants to wipe them all out?' Sofia's heart beat faster than ever. She looked at Nox as if he were mad. "Y-You're going to wipe them out alone?""I'm more than enough," Nox said coolly. "Now can you take me there?" He looked at Sofia calmly, as if wiping out a whole clan was just another Tuesday for him.Sofia was petrified. She looked at the corpses of her friends, thinking about what Nox said. It would be a bloody night. If she was right, the Flames were already attacking Blathanna Sect. If she didn't do as Nox told her to, her friends would all die.Sofia clenched her teeth. "Fine, I'll do it."A smile crept up Nox's face. "Thanks. Let's go."After a short pause, Sofia quietly picked up her bloodstained dagger and led Nox to the Flames' mansion.The Flames lived on the outskirts of the southwest. They were rich, powerful, and housed thousands of clansmen, though most of them were out attacking Blathanna Sect tonight.Only a few hundred were left holding the fort. The mansi
Nox's refusal to comply riled up the guards' leader. "You're not listening, punk. How dare you come closer? Kill him!" he roared.A pair of guards charged at Nox, bearing blades, but a devastating aura burst forth before they could get close. Nox flicked his fingers, and two flashes of light shot ahead.The pair of guards burst into smithereens, painting the air with clouds of blood.Nox had killed two people with a flick of his finger. The guards felt their hearts skip a beat, but they were elites after all, and they quickly unsheathed their weapons."We have an enemy in sight! Kill him!" the leader ordered. The twenty or so guards lunged at Nox.In the face of overwhelming numbers, Nox stood in his place calmly. He looked up into the sky. "Not a bad night to kill." He drew a line with his fingers in the air. The energy swirling around him turned into an air blade about thirty feet long.The blade shimmered brightly, tinging the night sky with a golden hue. Nox swung his arm. "C
