Chapter 1685


    “What? Your disciple? When did you get a disciple, Jade Benmore? I remember back when Master


    Doran’s son wanted to be your disciple, you said you’d never ept 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 he 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 ept a


    disciple, Lieutenant Lawrence? Since he can kill your son, that already means he’s better than your


    son, isn’t he?” Jade Benmore said ndly.


    Alex Rockefeller felt very aggrieved.


    He wished he could tell Colton that Jade and Nora Stewart were behind this and that he didn’t kill


    Maxwell Lawrence. Instead, Yuno was the one who had killed him. If Colton had what it took, he could


    look for Yuno himself.


    However, Alex couldn’t say this. If he did, he’d really be dead.


    Hence, he had no choice but to take the me.


    Colton was furious. “Jade, what is the meaning of this? My son died for nothing. Are you going to


    protect him all the way just because he’s your disciple?”


    “Come here, Nora!” Jade waved her hand at Nora nearby. “Tell him why Maxwell died,” Jade said.


    Nora began lying through her 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,” she fibbed.


    Alex looked at Nora. ‘Go on, keep making up the story!’ he thought.


    The story was so good that Alex nearly behaved in it.


    However, Colton wouldn’t buy any of it. “I doubt he 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 him a life-saving talisman? At the end of the day, Colton, your


    son was killed in a duel. You can’t me anyone!” Jade said.


    “What do you mean I can’t me anyone? Luna is my daughter-inw. Your disciple seduced my


    daughter-inw, and I haven’t even dealt with that. Now that he 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 her partner in romance. That’s her


    freedom. Even if my disciple managed to win her 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 he said.


    Indeed, Colton backed off.


    After iming Maxwell Lawrence’s body from Phoebe Larsen’s room, and with nowhere to vent, he


    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 him 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 copsing under


    its own weight!
