Chapter 1081
"Mr. Huang, I can''t just..." Martin sputtered out, unable to calm himself down.
Mr. Huang interrupted him and proceeded to state solemnly, "Mr. Li, Fade is a special instructor of
the Stealth Team. You know that the Stealth Team is top-notch, right? You have to know that there
are no more than ten people in the entire world who qualify to be a special instructor for the
team. Each of these individuals even possesses unfathomable abilities and astounding privileges."
"I''m not able to face off against such an individual. They are not to be provoked," Mr. Huang said.
"Why not? This is absurd! He''s just a doctor, isn''t he? Even if he does have an elevated status or
even special privileges, he still has to abide by thew, doesn''t he?! He''s been involved in multiple
murders and an abduction for God''s sake!" Martin yelled out in an incredulous tone. He could not
believe Mr. Huang''s words!
Mr. Huang''s face darkened the more Martin spoke. After the man had finished his monologue, he
started to speak in a low voice, "Mr. Li, let this be a friendly reminder to you."
"To put it simply, even if someone of Fade''s level really has kidnapped, killed, or even broken the
laws, we won''t be able to do anything about it. He''s on apletely different ne of existence,
another level even. We''re nothing inparison to him. Do you understand?" Mr. Huang said.
"I, that''s..." Martin stammered out in disbelief. He was the head of the Li family after all and was
used to lording over others with his power. He had not expected the possibility of being oppressed
by someone else like that.
He had always been certain that his status among the people had reached its peak. However,
reality hade crashing cruelly down on him at that moment, awakening him from his naive
mentality. There were others out there who ranked more superior than him in every way possible.
The way these superiors looked at Martin was simr to how he himself looked down on ordinary
people.
For a moment, Martin''s spirit seemed to have been broken as he stayed silent for a long while.

Mr. Huang patted his shoulder lightly, and spoke up, "Mr. Li, I''m sorry that I won''t be able to help you
out. You''ll have to forgive me this time. I''d advise you to do what the other party demands.
Whatever they''re asking from you, you have toply. If you don''t, I cannot fathom what he''ll do to
you."
"Everyone, stand guard at the foot of the mountain. No one is allowed to go up the mountain to
launch an attack without any explicit orders!" After Mr. Huang issued the order, he turned around
and left.
Martin was left staring nkly at nothing after that. He had not expected Fade to have such
undisclosed strength.
At this moment, he felt an overwhelming sense of powerlessness ovee him. It was a feeling he
had never experienced in his life before.
He could not help feeling anxious and unwilling to back down. However, he knew that there was
nothing he could do but wait for Fenrir to swoop into the rescue. As such, he stood quietly as time
passed him by.
Martin was filled with restless energy as he paced about anxiously.
After all, his daughter''s life was on the line.
Soon enough, the sky had begun to brighten and the sun was starting to peek over the horizon.
It was a sign that dawn was near. It would be less than half an hour until the sun fully rose.
Fade had warned them previously that if they did not deliver the Fire me nt to him before
sunrise, he would annihte the entirety of the Li
family.
Martin fiddled with his phone anxiously, ready to call Old Master to ask about the progress of the
situation.
However, just as he was about to dial the number, a ck Mercedes- Benz sedan could be seen
driving up to them from the foot of the mountain. Once the car was parked, the door opened to
reveal Old Master Fenrir getting out of it.
Seeing this, Martin scrambled forward to greet him in a panicked flurry, "Dad, what took you so
long? It''s almost dawn now and Sasha''s still..."
Fenrir spared a quick nce at Martin and rumbled out a reply, "Don''t worry about that. Either way,
I''m here now. Everything will be fine."
"Dad, did you manage to get Master Chiu here?" Martin asked anxiously.
"Of course I did! What do you think kept me sote? I was trying to persuade him out of hiding," Old
Master Fenrir said.
"So Master Chiu''s really here then? Has he achieved a breakthrough yet?" Martin asked in
anticipation.
Fenrir shook his head at that and said, "He''s still a little away from that. I''ve asked him to rush here
before he could do it because I wanted to make sure we could get to Sasha in time."
"If that was the case, Master Chiu must still be an Earth Level master in his early stages. Fade is
also an Earth Level master as well so that would mean..." Martin trailed off, concern coloring his
tone.
Fenrir threw a heated re at Martin, and barked back, "Do you think this kid can beparable to
Master Chiu? Master Chiu has been an Earth Level master for more than ten years now and he''s
only one step away from advancing into the intermediate stage at the moment. Defeating that kid
would be a piece of cake to him!"
"You''re absolutely right!" Martin nodded fervently and quickly added, "But Dad, Fade has another
identity as well, he''s..."
He then proceeded to tell him about Fade being the Stealth Team''s special instructor.
After hearing that, Fenrir couldn''t help feeling taken aback, frowning in deep thought.
Just as he was contemting, another ck Mercedes- Benz drove up and parked nearby. When
the door opened, an old bearded man with unkempt long hair wearing a robe got out of the car.
The elder man''s face glowed a healthy pink, emanating an other-worldly aura with every step he
took. Everyone around him couldn''t help but hold their breaths.
It was Master Titan Chiu.
At the sight of him, Fenrir and Martin hurriedly rushed over to greet him, "Master Chiu!"
The two quickly briefed him about the situation, telling him about what Benedict had told them about
Fade''s record in Dragonville, as well as his status as the Stealth Team''s special instructor.
After listening, Titan merely directed a confident smile at the worried Martin and Fenrir. He waved
his hand in dismissal and said, "A 20-something-year-old boy iming to be a master at the Earth
Level? That''s ridiculous!"
"All things considering, even if he is an Earth Level master, so what? He can''t possibly beat me."
"As for the punk''s status as a special instructor, that won''t mean anything once I defeat him. Don''t
worry, I''ll be able to handle this," Titan smirked, looking every bit confident. He did not pay any mind
to Fade''s threats at all.
"Moreover, that kid has crippled my disciple, Brayden. I won''t let him off the hook so easily," he
added coldly.
"Onward! Let''s get this show on the road," Titan announced as he led the way towards the peak of
Eastset Mountain.
As such, Martin and Fenrir trailed after him, filled
with glee.
Leonardo and the others who had been thinking of stopping him were cast aside by Titan. He then
proceeded to make his way up the mountain with confidence.
At the peak of Eastset Mountain, Fade sat cross-legged with closed eyes. When he sensed that the
sky had gradually turned brighter, he blinked them open.
At the sight of the marble white tone of the dawn sky, Fade spoke up unfeelingly, "It''s almost
sunrise."
Sasha, who had been shivering from the cold behind Fade could not help letting out a violent
shudder when she heard him. A look of abject horror painted her face as she tried desperately to
speak.
Even so, she could not get her vocal cords to cooperate with her. No words woulde out of her
mouth no matter how hard she tried. After all, she knew deep down that at this point, whatever she
did would be futile.
