Semua Bab Divorced and Dominant: Now You Cry?: Bab 541 - Bab 550

Ashton sported a rare look of solemness. The word "terrifying" was nowhere near enough to describe the strength of the person who managed to leave such an unrelenting wisp of weaponized energy inside of Lawrence."It was Wycliffe Gorham, the Divine Swordmaster of Jalun and the chairman of the Jalunese Martial Association, who did it to me," Lawrence said grimly.His eyes flashed with hostility at the mention of Wycliffe, but it died out almost immediately. He was old now, and Wycliffe was still at his prime.Lawrence's gaze softened as he looked at Ashton."Ashton, the Legion and the Jalunese Martial Association have always been bitter enemies. Ours is a deadly feud. The Jalunese Association deserves to be killed a hundred times over for all the heinous crimes and despicable deeds it's responsible for."But now, the association has used the lure of profit to ally with many of Casoria's organizations. If you go after them, you'll be challenging a large group of organizations whose

Sally stepped back before Niall could finish, putting some space between them.His gaze turned cold. He tipped back his liquor, a feral grin spreading across his face. "It's good that you've got a boyfriend. Bring him here and let us meet him! We'll help you vet him.""Yeah. Tell your boyfriend to come over. We're all really excited right now." A rich kid laughed sinisterly while roughly tearing at a woman's clothes."Sally, is your boyfriend handsome? Hurry up and tell him to come so I can see!" A fashionably dressed woman lazily blew a smoke ring, her gaze hazy.The jeering didn't stop.The looks on the rich kids' faces became more twisted by the minute, and a few women's screams cut through the noise. The scene made Sally's fear spike.This party reeked of danger. These people were clearly out of control—they were high and spiraling."I really need to go." Sally stood to leave.But the next second, Niall spread his arms and leered, fixing his drunken gaze on her. He licked h

Ashton gently stroked Sally as he listened to the pampered brats brag about the revolting things they'd done.Some had destroyed families, some had beaten people half to death or killed them, some had sexually assaulted women… Every single one of them had committed capital crimes.Yet in the end, they'd all found scapegoats to take the fall. Now, they sat here, blowing smoke rings, tossing back liquor, and living it up as if nothing had ever happened.Ashton's smile grew wider with every word he heard, while Sally felt herself getting colder. She had a strong premonition that something big was going to happen that night. Not just big—it would be earth-shattering!"Ashton, don't be impulsive. These people have powerful connections," she whispered, her lips pale."Relax. I won't do anything rash." Ashton continued stroking her. He lifted his gaze to Niall, whose face was all vicious gloom. He chuckled and said, "Mr. Wagner, they've finished sharing their exciting stories. What about

Passing judgment on their deaths?Niall and the others froze at Ashton's words. A powerful wave of fear crashed down on them from out of nowhere."Niall, you're a grandmaster! Hurry up and take down that lunatic!""If he had the nerve to kill Lyle, he might really kill us, too! Niall, you're the strongest here. Get rid of him, fast!"The spoiled heirs stumbled backward in panic. After clearly sensing Ashton's killing intent, cold sweat beaded across their foreheads. After all, nobody was fearless in the face of death. They didn't want to end up like Lyle!Niall's heart clenched with dread. He first pulled back to a safer distance from Ashton, then forced through gritted teeth, "Do you know what you just did, Ashton? Get on your knees and own up to your crime now, or you're dead meat! Listen—I've got the Dominion Vanguard backing me up! Their people are at my home right this minute!""Is that so?" Ashton let out a derisive snort. He raised a single finger again and aimed directl

Threads of cutting wind howled, flinging Gordon clean off his feet. Ashton said coldly, "Don't waste my time with this crap. I'm in a hurry tonight, so I'm not interested in your rubbish.""How dare you! You—" Gordon started."How dare I?" Ashton let out an icy laugh. "I bear the Legion's Sigil. I have the right to kill first and report later; I bear the duty to judge evil. Does that tell you why I dare do what I'm doing? Why don't you ask your precious son how he dared to commit such unforgivable sins?"He held out a hand and spread his palm. Neil immediately understood and passed him a long blade.Ashton stepped forward with the blade. It glinted coldly as he pressed it to Kendrick's neck. As he looked down at Kendrick and saw how violently he was trembling, he said coldly, "I wonder how I should punish you to make you feel like you're in hell on earth."The words had barely fallen when Ashton flicked the blade and carved a slab of flesh off Kendrick's side.Kendrick howled lik
