Downstream of Yorlosland.
Lavan set down his suitcase, lit a cigarette and took a deep drag before turning his gaze to the trembling Lena in front of him, and slowly said, "Since the day I founded the League of Extreme Thieves, no member has ever been expelled. Do you know why?"
Lena clenched her teeth tightly, "It's because my talents are insufficient, unworthy of staying in the league."
"Wrong," Lavan shook his head, "it's because those who betray the league all die, but do you know why I spared your life?"
Lena, drenched in cold sweat, didn't dare to answer.
Lavan chuckled, the crimson stub of his cigarette dropped to the ground and got crushed under the toe of his boot.
"Keeping you alive is to lure out the force behind you, Blood Shark Island, that's the name, isn't it?"
Lena could no longer bear the fear in her heart and hastily knelt on the ground.
"Lord Lavan, I was forced!"
"Whether you were forced or not, what does it have to do with me?" Lavan sneered, "Hand over the Heart of the Galaxy, or else you will die a terrible death."
Lena hurriedly replied, "The Heart of the Galaxy has already been taken by Blake from Blood Shark Island, he is a Heaven Rank expert."
Lavan frowned, "A peak Heaven Rank?"
Lena shook her head, "No, he has just stepped into the Heaven Rank."
Lavan hmm’ed, "Then tell him to come here, I'll ask him myself."
Lena had no choice but to comply.
Thirty minutes later, Blake appeared in the night.
Thirty-one minutes later, Blake was kneeling on the ground.
Lavan looked at the Heart of the Galaxy in his hand and scoffed, "Lena, you're blind, and you, a Heaven Rank expert, are also blind, daring to snatch anyone's possession."
Blake shuddered, his eyes full of fear, "Lord Lavan, spare my life, I can tell you a secret!"
"The Heart of the Galaxy contains Saint Rank Qi, which can continuously improve the constitution of the wearer!"
Lavan looked at Blake expressionlessly, his gaze as if looking at a fool, "A secret you know, you think I wouldn't be aware of?"
Blake's face turned ashen.
Lavan glanced coldly at Eilir and Blake, "I really don't know where you get the confidence from, do you really think you're qualified to touch such a thing?"
Blake tried to smile ingratiatingly, "Lord Lavan, with the Heart of the Galaxy, you will definitely achieve Saint Rank. Spare my life, and I will be your dog from now on, I can even take you to Blood Shark Island, there's a treasure trove on the island that you will surely like!"
Lavan secured the Heart of the Galaxy and mocked, "You're thinking too much, even I am not qualified to possess the Heart of the Galaxy."
"It's a gift from my idol to his wife."
Blake was shocked, "Lord Lavan, can you take me to meet your idol? I am willing to be his dog, to bite whoever he commands me to."
"You wish," Lavan laughed in exasperation, "you even think about being my idol's dog, keep dreaming."
Lena also coldly snorted in despair, "To give the Heart of the Galaxy to an ordinary person is a waste of heaven's gifts!"
"Slap!" Lavan slapped Lena across the face and glanced at Blake, "The Heart of the Galaxy represents the chance to achieve Saint Rank, but do you think a Divine Rank expert needs the Heart of the Galaxy?"
"A Divine Rank expert giving the Heart of the Galaxy as a gift to his beloved, is there a problem?"
"Impossible!" Blake roared like a madman, "How could there be a Divine Rank in this world!"
Lena was also lost in a daze.
"Alright, I'll take you to meet my idol, without his permission, I dare not kill you."
After saying this, Lavan made a phone call, and shortly after, an off-road vehicle arrived.
Lavan threw Lena and the dog-like Blake into the car, and after the car started, he said to the young man driving, "After dropping me off, leave the Red Dragon Kingdom overnight."
The young man, puzzled, "Master, in two more days, I would have stolen that painting!"
Lavan snorted, "I've said before, no one from the league is allowed to enter the Red Dragon Kingdom."
"If you weren't my disciple, I would execute you myself!"
"Leave the Red Dragon Kingdom as soon as possible."
The young man's face was unwilling, "Master, I don't understand, why are we the only ones not allowed to come to the Red Dragon Kingdom?"
Lavan coldly glanced at the young man, "It's the War God Palace's request."
With just that sentence, the young man's face turned pale, and he was at a loss for words.
In the early hours of the morning.
The off-road vehicle arrived at a park near the Jernigan family's residence.
Atius, who received the call, came to the park and immediately saw Lavan puffing out smoke rings.
"Heh, War God sir, it's good to see you again."
Atius took the Heart of the Galaxy from Lavan's hand and nodded, "Who did it?"
Lavan clapped his hands, and his young disciple immediately came forward with Lena and Blake.
"Look at yourself, so pathetic, bow to the War God sir quickly! If sir is pleased, he might give you a few pointers."
The young disciple threw Lena and Blake to the ground and knelt tremblingly, respectfully saying, "Greetings to the War God sir!"
Atius looked at Lavan with a speechless expression, "You're a peak Heaven Rank, can't you have a little shame?"
Though he said that, Atius still released a stream of Qi.
This Qi instantly opened up the young man's meridians and continuously cleared the congestion in his body.
In a matter of seconds, the young man trembled with joy and fell to the ground, "Thank you, War God sir, for helping me achieve Heaven Rank."
Atius nodded, "You have good talent. If your master gets killed one day, you can choose to join the War God Palace."
The young man was immediately excited, and just as he was about to speak, Lavan shouted, "I'm not dead yet, and you're thinking about joining the War God Palace?!"
Perhaps too excited, the young man blurted out, "Then when will you die, Master?"
Lavan was immediately infuriated.
Atius waved his hand, and the two immediately quieted down, respectfully standing to one side.
On the ground.
Blake, with all his bones shattered, looked at Atius with eyes full of fear.
"Sir...spare..."
"Bang!" Atius stomped down, and his ferocious Qi acted like a hammer weighing thousands of pounds. Before Blake could finish begging for mercy, he turned into a pile of debris.
Lena, pale as death, bit her lip hard to suppress the fear in her heart.
As Atius approached, Lena's toes moved slightly, and a blue smoke emerged from her boots.
In an instant, the air corroded with a 'sizzling' sound.
During the day, Lena had used this move to escape from Blake's hands.
This was her last resort!
Lavan's young disciple exclaimed, "War God sir, be careful!"
Lavan, with a cigarette in his mouth, slapped his disciple on the forehead.
"Use your brain, do you think such petty tricks can harm the War God sir?"
Sure enough.
Atius snorted, and his raging Qi immediately dispersed the blue smoke.
Lena finally despaired, lying on the ground and closing her eyes.
But after waiting several seconds and realizing she was not dead, she trembled and opened her eyes again.
Their eyes met, and she felt Atius's eyes were deeper than the night sky, mysterious, dignified, making one unable to resist the urge to submit.
"Your name is Lena, the daughter of Damir from the provincial city, right?"
Lena was stunned, struggled to sit up, and a hint of reluctance flashed in her eyes, "He is not my biological father, he knows nothing about my affairs, please spare his life, sir!"
Atius looked at Lena expressionlessly, "Then why did you steal the Heart of the Galaxy?"
Lena clenched her teeth, "I overheard Blake talking to someone else, knowing that the Heart of the Galaxy could improve the physique of the wearer, I wanted to become stronger!"
Atius hmm’ed, "Stand up."
"Live well, after some time, I will need you to take me to Blood Shark Island."
"Ah?... Ah!" Lena thought she was hallucinating, sitting on the ground, not knowing what to do.
It wasn't until she saw Atius turn and leave that Lena staggered to her feet, cautiously looking at Lavan.
Lavan glanced at Lena with jealousy, "The sir actually spared your life, you really are lucky."
After a moment, Lavan left the park with his foolish disciple.
Lena looked deeply in the direction Atius had left, then turned and left.
In the provincial city at the Yates family's residence.
Just as dawn was breaking, Damir was taking a walk with the old master when he saw Lena standing at the door, covered in blood, and his eyes immediately reddened, "Lena, what happened?!"
Old Master Lazar stomped his feet anxiously and quickly turned around to shout into the courtyard, "Calum, come quickly and see what's happened to Lena!"
Calum appeared in a flash, placing his hand on Lena's back and letting his Qi circulate, and was immediately astonished, "Lena, you... you've actually reached Peak Earth Rank!"
