Chapter 507: Chapter 507 Vengeance Will Be Fulfilled
Walton Greer’s expression grew strained, beads of sweat forming across his brow.
He’d battled me before and understood exactly what I was capable of.
But backing down now? That simply wasn’t an option for him!
"I need to see just how powerful a half-step Martial Marquis really is!" Walton Greer bellowed, his qi exploding outward as he charged toward me with lightning speed!
I clasped both hands behind my back, smirking, completely dismissing Walton Greer’s threat.
"Boom!"
Right as Walton Greer closed in, I shot out my hand and seized his throat!
In that instant, all his power became meaningless!
I relied purely on physical strength to overpower Walton Greer’s martial techniques, effortlessly gripping his neck and hoisting him off the ground.
The crushing force from my fingers made Walton Greer’s face twist in shock!
As the previous Number One of Central Plains, he couldn’t break free now!
"I told you before—among our generation, you’re nothing but garbage," I said with ice in my voice.
Walton Greer gritted his teeth, attempting to struggle but finding escape impossible!
His arrogance crumbled in that moment!
"Speak up—what really went down with Zendaya Andrew?" I demanded coldly.
"If I talk, will you let me live..." Walton Greer gasped out with great effort.
"No," I replied coldly.
"But I can make your death slightly less painful."
Hearing this, fury sparked in Walton Greer’s chest!
He refused to accept dying this way!
"Mason Raymond, forget about it!" Walton Greer snarled through clenched teeth.
I narrowed my eyes and sneered: "Divine Alchemist Pavilion has plenty of methods for dealing with people—let’s see how long you can endure."
With that, I slowly raised my left hand.
A faint glow gathered on my palm, settling gently against Walton Greer’s forehead.
This spark of light pierced straight into Walton Greer’s mind!
Instantly, Walton Greer felt like lightning had struck his brain, his skull ready to explode!
"Ahh!"
The agony made Walton Greer shriek without stopping, his body shaking uncontrollably!
"Once I shatter your limbs and destroy your dantian, I’ll torture you slowly," I sneered.
But right then, that raspy voice echoed in Walton Greer’s head.
"Hand over your body to me... I’ll get you out of here..."
Fighting through the torment, Walton Greer screamed internally: "I want you to help me destroy this Mason Raymond and tear him to pieces!"
"That can be arranged..." the hoarse voice whispered eerily.
"Give me control of your body, and your vengeance will be fulfilled..."
"Ahh!"
Walton Greer roared, seemingly at his breaking point!
Just then, a brilliant light erupted from Walton Greer’s form!
His internal energy skyrocketed at an unbelievable rate, and his entire physique grew significantly more powerful!
"What?" My eyebrows shot up.
I felt like my hands were being pried apart, and the Walton Greer before me seemed like a completely different person!
"Boom!"
With tremendous force, I was pushed back, involuntarily releasing my hold!
"Mason Raymond!" Fifth Elder and the others rushed over to me.
My brow creased as I stared at Walton Greer ahead, confusion flickering in my eyes.
Walton Greer stood there, radiating a completely different presence from head to toe.
After a pause, Walton turned toward me.
A cold grin played on his lips, totally unlike his previous demeanor.
"Mason Raymond... I should thank you..." Walton chuckled.
I said coldly, "Thank me? What’s that supposed to mean?"
Walton laughed loudly, "No need for you to understand. We’ll cross paths again!"
After saying this, Walton spun to leave!
"Think you’re going somewhere!" My hair whipped wildly as I stepped forward, battle intent blazing!
With the Absolute Beginning Sacred Fist ready, I lunged straight at Walton!
However, Walton didn’t even glance back—with a simple turn and wave, the Absolute Beginning Sacred Fist dissolved like mist!
Then, Walton stepped on air and rapidly fled!
In seconds, Walton vanished from everyone’s view.
My brow furrowed deeply.
"This Walton Greer is definitely hiding something!" I said coldly.
His strength had surged in moments, and his whole attitude was like he’d become someone else entirely.
Staring at the direction where Walton Greer had disappeared, I stayed quiet for a while.
"He escaped again." My eyebrows knitted slightly.
"Master Raymond, are you okay?" The surrounding alchemists approached.
I shook my head, then asked, "Where’s the Lord Pavilion Master?"
"The Lord Pavilion Master went back to the Pavilion Master Building," Fifth Elder replied.
I nodded, said nothing else, and headed back to the Elder’s quarters.
——
Sitting in the Elder’s quarters, I closed my eyes slightly, and couldn’t help thinking about Vance Johansson.
Twenty days left until September 9th.
During this period, there’d been virtually no news about Vance Johansson.
"Now that I’m only at the Consummate Inner Strength Grandmaster Realm, I can dominate those at half-step Martial Marquis, and Vance Johansson is just half-step Martial Marquis too—nothing special," I thought to myself.
"Unless he can reach the Military Marquis Realm, he’s not worth worrying about."
That said, Vance Johansson was still a young master from an aristocratic family and couldn’t be compared to ordinary half-step Martial Marquises.
Thinking this over, I couldn’t help pulling out my phone and opening the Martial Arts Forum.
As soon as I accessed the forum, I spotted a headline:
Alberto Sean has officially entered the Martial Marquis Realm, undoubtedly becoming the exceptional Number One among the younger generation!
The comments section had exploded. Besides praising Alberto Sean’s abilities, some people brought up my name too.
"Being from the Sean family, Alberto Sean definitely won’t spare Mason Raymond, right?"
"Exactly, Alberto Sean’s grandfather was murdered by Mason Raymond—naturally he won’t let that slide!"
"They’re both from the younger generation, so nobody can complain if they fight."
My expression darkened, and I felt some pressure building.
I’d just reached the Consummate Inner Strength Grandmaster Realm, while Alberto Sean had already jumped straight to Martial Marquis!
There weren’t many Martial Marquises worldwide, and Alberto Sean was probably the youngest!
"These young masters from aristocratic families... really aren’t simple!" I thought silently.
Capital City was packed with talent, and Alberto Sean wasn’t the only one. Who knew how many other prodigies existed among those aristocratic families.
As members of the same circle, they naturally stood opposed to me.
This path was bound to be filled with enemies, especially those who had natural advantages and resources.
"Alberto Sean..." I whispered the name, and couldn’t help recalling our last meeting.
Right then, another news story appeared:
"Vance Johansson will emerge from seclusion soon!"
