Chapter 557: Chapter 557 Spare No One
Atkinson Samson swept his icy gaze across the gathered crowd, speaking with deliberate slowness. "Never before has the Great Saint Sect assembled such overwhelming force to crush another sect. No one has ever been foolish enough to challenge our supreme authority!"
"All because of Mason Raymond!"
Atkinson Samson rose from his seat with calculated menace.
His cold stare pierced through everyone present. "Listen well—when you reach Green Moon Villa, slaughter everyone you encounter! The Great Saint Sect will demonstrate to the world what happens when you dare oppose us!"
"Yes!" The unified roar shook the air.
——
Deep within the Capital City Martial Arts Association lay a prison designed for dangerous criminals.
These inmates possessed tremendous power, some even holding Marquis rank!
Yet now, an ordinary woman with zero cultivation occupied one of these cells.
She sat alone in her private cell, consuming generous portions of meat and fish daily.
Premium medicinal herbs were mixed into her meals as well.
Despite this treatment, her complexion remained ghostly pale, her body appearing incredibly fragile!
The prisoner was Mabel Sean!
"Miss Sean, time’s up."
A Marquis entered through the cell door.
He gripped a syringe as he approached Mabel.
Terror flashed across Mabel’s ashen features.
"Miss Sean, please endure this. Don’t fret—this won’t endanger your life." The Marquis chuckled darkly.
He raised his palm, and Mabel’s body lifted into the air, completely immobilized!
The Marquis drove the syringe deep into Mabel’s pale neck without hesitation!
Blood flowed through the needle into the tube.
Mabel’s face grew even whiter, agony twisting her expression beyond description.
"All done, Miss Sean." The Marquis released his hold on Mabel after extracting the blood.
Mabel fixed him with a cold stare. "What’s your purpose?"
The Marquis laughed. "Miss Sean, stay calm. We only require your blood. Cooperate nicely, and we won’t hurt you."
"When will you release me?" Mabel demanded icily.
"That... remains unclear, hehe." The Marquis departed with these words, ignoring Mabel completely.
No one could have predicted the Capital City Martial Arts Association would treat Mabel Sean this way.
——
Green Moon Villa buzzed with unusual activity today.
Ximena Santos occupied the Great Hall, her eyes clouded with anxiety.
Every small sound made her glance toward the entrance.
The reason was simple—today marked the Great Saint Sect’s arrival to destroy them.
"Why hasn’t Mr. Raymond emerged yet?" Ximena’s concern deepened.
Suddenly, multiple powerful auras descended upon Green Moon Villa!
This crushing presence was so intense that nearly everyone within the villa felt its overwhelming weight!
Ximena shot to her feet and rushed outside.
Within moments, she witnessed over ten figures strutting boldly into Green Moon Villa.
"Who... who are you?" Ximena stammered nervously.
"Atkinson Samson." The leader spoke with arctic coldness.
Upon hearing that name, everyone present went pale with terror!
"Atkinson... Atkinson Samson, the Great Saint Sect’s leader!"
"They actually came..."
Atkinson Samson surveyed the crowd with his frigid gaze. "Where is Mason Raymond?"
Ximena fought to control her fear, drew a steadying breath, and replied, "Lord Samson, Mr. Raymond is handling business elsewhere. May I ask why you seek him?"
"Not here?" Atkinson Samson’s eyes narrowed dangerously.
He sneered afterward. "If he were present, I’d slaughter every last one of you!"
These words threw the scene into complete chaos!
Against Atkinson Samson, they possessed no fighting chance whatsoever!
"Stop!"
Ximena suddenly cried out.
She gritted her teeth. "Mr. Samson, I know your Great Saint Sect desires the Iceheart Lake. I... I can surrender it to you."
Atkinson Samson stroked his beard and sneered. "After I eliminate all of you, the Iceheart Lake becomes mine regardless!"
Having spoken, Atkinson Samson commanded, "Begin the attack—spare no one!"
"I can reveal Mason Raymond’s location!"
Someone from the crowd shouted desperately.
Atkinson Samson raised his hand at these words.
He questioned coldly, "You know where Mason Raymond is?"
"Y-yes," the shaking martial artist answered.
"Lead me to him." Murderous intent gleamed in Atkinson Samson’s eyes.
The martial artist didn’t dare hesitate and quickly moved forward. "Please follow me..."
Ximena watched this unfold with eyes blazing with fury, but she lacked any means to oppose Atkinson Samson, leaving her powerless to intervene.
Atkinson Samson advanced toward Mason Raymond’s quarters with his followers.
——
At that moment, I was attempting to achieve a breakthrough into the Marquis realm.
I could sense clearly that my qi possessed sufficient strength to support entry into the Marquis level.
Yet every attempt had ended in failure.
"Damn," I exhaled softly.
"They say reaching the Marquis realm requires the right opportunity, and it seems they’re right." I frowned deeply.
Forcing a breakthrough proved extremely difficult.
The door suddenly exploded inward!
Immediately after, I felt intense killing intent flooding the room!
Looking up, I saw Atkinson Samson standing coldly in the doorway.
"Mason Raymond..." The moment Atkinson Samson spotted me, his fist clenched tight!
Atkinson Samson harbored deep hatred toward me!
"Atkinson Samson, you finally decided to show yourself." I rose slowly from the floor.
As I looked at Atkinson Samson, subtle unease stirred in my heart’s depths.
My inability to break through to the Marquis realm spelled bad news for me.
"If I truly can’t manage it, I’ll have no choice but to attempt using the forbidden technique to force entry into the Marquis realm again," I muttered with furrowed brows.
"I want to see who can rescue you this time!" Atkinson Samson declared coldly.
I stood and replied, "True, no one can save me, but killing me won’t be simple either."
"Is that so?" Atkinson Samson roared as his aura exploded outward!
This terrifying force sent everyone nearby flying through the air!
