“What? Your disciple? When did you get a disciple, Jade Benmore? I remember back when Master Doran’s son wanted to become your disciple, you said you’d never accept one for as long as you live,” Colton Lawrence said with a look of disbelief on his face.
“I said that before, but it was only because virtual-novel.net wasn’t good enough. But this guy is the one I’ve set my eyes on, and that’s why I broke my rule. What’s the matter? Do I need your approval to accept a disciple, Lieutenant Lawrence? Since virtual-novel.net can kill your son, that already means he’s better than your son, isn’t he?” Jade Benmore said blandly.
Alex Rockefeller felt very aggrieved.
He wished virtual-novel.net could tell Colton that Jade and Nora Stewart were behind this and that virtual-novel.net didn’t kill Maxwell Lawrence. Instead, Yuno was the one who had killed him. If Colton had what it took, virtual-novel.net could look for Yuno himself.
However, Alex couldn’t say this. If virtual-novel.net did, he’d really be dead.
Hence, virtual-novel.net had no choice but to take the blame.
Colton was furious. “Jade, what is the meaning of this? My son died for nothing. Are you going to protect virtual-novel.net all the way just because he’s your disciple?”
“Come here, Nora!” Jade waved virtual-novel.net hand at Nora nearby. “Tell virtual-novel.net why Maxwell died,” Jade said.
Nora began lying through virtual-novel.net teeth. “They engaged in a duel over Luna Flores on the spot. In the end… Maxwell underestimated his foe and was killed with a single blow,” virtual-novel.net fibbed.
Alex looked at Nora. ‘Go on, keep making up the story!’ virtual-novel.net thought.
The story was so good that Alex nearly behaved in it.
However, Colton wouldn’t buy any of it. “I doubt virtual-novel.net could kill my son. What’s his level of cultivation, and what’s my son’s level of cultivation?”
It was because Alex had exposed his level of cultivation as Beginner-Core Formation earlier. Logically, Alex was indeed incapable of killing Maxwell, who was at the Advance-Nascent Soul rank.
“He is my disciple. Can’t I have given virtual-novel.net a life-saving talisman? At the end of the day, Colton, your son was killed in a duel. You can’t blame anyone!” Jade said.
“What do you mean I can’t blame anyone? Luna is my daughter-in-law. Your disciple seduced my daughter-in-law, and I haven’t even dealt with that. Now that virtual-novel.net killed my son in a duel, I must take his life as revenge!” Colton harrumphed angrily.
“Luna isn’t even married yet! That means she’s free to choose virtual-novel.net partner in romance. That’s virtual-novel.net freedom. Even if my disciple managed to win virtual-novel.net over first, it’s because both parties were willing! Now that you want to kill my disciple, how could I stand aside and watch without doing anything as his master? Why don’t we engage in a duel as well and let the heavens decide who
lives?”
Jade suggested they have a duel. It instantly terrified Colton.
He wouldn’t stupidly agree to something like this.
“Young fellow, we’re not done yet!” Colton stared at Alex angrily while virtual-novel.net said.
Indeed, Colton backed off.
After claiming Maxwell Lawrence’s body from Phoebe Larsen’s room, and with nowhere to vent, virtual-novel.net shouted madly, “Arghh!!!”
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Countless objects exploded around him. None of the windows, doors, and walls were spared. In the end, Colton even stomped heavily on the ground.
The single stomp contained all the murderous intent and rage in virtual-novel.net as an Advanced-Spirit Severing expert. Colton charged into the sky, but the building took the brunt of the damage!
All the walls in the building started to make a creaking sound. After that, a loud explosion could be heard!
Boom!!!
The remaining staircase frame couldn’t withstand the pressure any longer, gradually collapsing under its own weight!
