The figure appeared like a demon crawling out of the abyss. He fixed Ashton with a terrifying stare and let out a raspy, mocking laugh."Get out of my way, or I'll kill you, too!" Ashton said coldly."You really are arrogant. Do you even know who I am?" The figure narrowed his eyes, staring Ashton down as if he could see straight through him."I don't care who you are. If you continue to stand in my way, I'll be happy to send you straight to hell." Ashton didn't waste time. Like a gust of wind, he swept toward Renee's location."Ignorant fool! You're facing Lupus, the ace assassin of the Shadowed Nocturnals! Dying by my hand is the greatest honor you'll ever get!" Lupus' gaze went cold. In the blink of an eye, he vanished from where he stood, as if he'd never been there. "I've found your weakness, so accept your death sentence!"His voice was so airy and distant that it was impossible to tell where he was.One breath later, he smirked with pride. He approached Ashton from beh

In that instant, a chilling, intoxicating pressure had fallen upon the surroundings, born of the black flames that were raging in the depths of Ashton's gaze.Calvin and Edmund's expressions shifted dramatically. Their hearts hammered against their ribs, threatening to leap from their throats as the sudden peril made the world feel like a deadly furnace.Edmund, in particular, was paralyzed by a terror that had spiraled beyond measure. He had been certain his flawless plan for revenge would annihilate even the most formidable expert from the semi-transcendent realm.He had deemed Ashton a severe threat and committed his full, unreserved strength. Ashton, however, wiped out every single person he had deployed. He had taken less than ten minutes to cut his way from the entrance of Orchid Pavilion Resort to reach him. Ashton was truly a fearsome being!Edmund deeply regretted going against Ashton. He couldn't care less about Ashton trampling on his pride and stealing his woman at this

Calvin repeatedly banged his forehead on the floor before Ashton, his entire being trembling in fright.Roxy felt profound disappointment as she observed Calvin's pitiful appearance. She couldn't believe her first love was behaving in such a pathetic manner in front of Ashton. She suddenly recalled how foolish she had been to bring Calvin with her when she demanded a divorce from Ashton."You have to ask Ashton to spare me. I don't want to die, Roxy!" Calvin had relinquished any semblance of dignity. He harbored no further malice toward Ashton after seeing Edmund's gruesome end, only overwhelming, endless dread.Roxy warned, "You ought to know that murder is a crime, Ashton! You'd better not make things worse for yourself! I have already called in Eunice from the Legion, and she'll be here with reinforcements shortly! You should get out of here now. Otherwise, you'll surely be prosecuted for Edmund's death!"Ashton spared a contemptuous glance for Roxy, then pressed his heel down

Eunice, catching sight of Roxy's bloodshot eyes, immediately knew that Ashton had wronged Roxy. She felt compelled to avenge Roxy's dignity, though she understood that Ashton was probably in the right today. Perhaps, he had even become their savior, rescuing them all from an unthinkable fate by rushing to the scene.Ashton regarded Eunice with disdain, then asked flatly, "You want to arrest me, huh?"Eunice felt uncomfortable under Ashton's scrutinizing gaze. She still lifted her chin, though, and retorted sharply, "Is there any issue with that? I'm part of the Legion, so you're required to cooperate with my investigation! I hereby place you under suspicion of premeditated murder!""You are in no position to arrest me!" Ashton snapped. He had no time to waste on Eunice. Renee was safe, and he had a vital appointment to perform acupuncture on Lawrence."How conceited of you! Who the hell do you think you are? You're merely a petty thug! How dare you question my authority to arrest

Upon hearing that, Kayla was instantly stunned. She trembled slightly, a furious blush rising to her cheeks as she glared at Ashton. She had been certain that he had forgotten the entire arrangement, so she was mortified that he chose this very moment to bring it up. "Did I really agree to that?" Kayla muttered with her lips pursed, her gaze darting everywhere as embarrassment washed over her. She regretted making that impulsive promise to sleep with Ashton. Kayla never expected his medical skills to be so extraordinary. She had underestimated him, and now it was coming back to bite her.Ashton said indifferently, "If you don't plan on admitting it, then so be it, Ms. Clarkson."Kayla gritted her teeth as she glared at Ashton with her hands on her hips. "I have nothing to hide! I agreed to spend the night with you if you healed my grandfather! I'm a person of honor, and I stand by my word! I'll sleep with you, so just tell me the time!"Ashton chuckled in response, planning to
