“…’
‘If she came to Huaxia to look for him on her own, doesn’t that make him even more amazing?’
After a long while, General Bai replied, “Hot damn! Why didn’t you tell me earlier about such a major incident?”
Then, he chuckled and said, “You’re really something, Comrade Tang Hao! Amazing, really amazing! You’ve brought glory to Huaxia! Don’t worry, I’ll send someone over to clean up.”
After ending the call, Tang Hao sent Thea home.
Thea spent the next few days studying the ring, but there were no results.
She did not go to university anymore and stayed at home.
Late one night, Tang Hao was sitting cross-legged in the living room, studying alchemy. Suddenly, the building opposite him lit up with a dazzling golden light.
He turned to look, but he could not look directly at the light.
About ten seconds later, the light slowly dissipated.
Tang Hao quickly got up and flew to the balcony of the opposite building. When he entered the apartment, he saw Thea sitting there. On the middle finger of her right hand was a ring that was emanating a dazzling golden light.
He could feel the imposing aura from the Artifact.
“It worked?” Tang Hao said in surprise.
She stood up and said happily, “It worked!”
“That’s great!” Tang Hao said.
She walked up and hugged Tang Hao. “Thank you, Hao! It’s all thanks to you! I don’t even know how to thank you!” She said softly.
“You don’t have to thank me!!” Tang Hao said.
“Of course I have to!” She said with a smile.
“Are you going back?” Tang Hao asked.
“Yes! I want to go back and reclaim what was taken from me. I won’t forgive anyone who betrayed or hurt me,” she said coldly. Her tone was filled with killing intent.
Chapter 640 - Revenge
A plane landed at an international airport in Merrica.
Two figures walked out of the crowd.
A man and a woman wore black suits and sunglasses. The man had black hair and beige skin. The woman had blonde hair and fair skin. She was a typical Westerner.
“I’m back!”
Thea exclaimed as she stepped on the ground.
After leaving the airport, the two of them headed straight for the city. They got another car and drove to Winston Castle, the headquarters of the Winston family.
Caesar’s surname was Winston.
White Mountain was very large with tens of thousands of warlocks. There were many wizard families among them, and the Winston family was one of those.
The current patriarch of the Winston family was a member of the Council of Elders, and his status was very high.
The Winston family was not only involved in business and had tens of billions of dollars in assets, but they were also involved in politics with multiple Members of Congress. They could be considered one of the big families that controlled the lifeline of Merrica.
Tang Hao sat in the front passenger seat, browsing information about the Winston family on a tablet in his hands.
As he scrolled, his gaze fell on one of the photos.
The person in the photo was Caesar.
“He’s mine!” Thea glanced over and said coldly, “I’ll kill him and take everything back.”
“Then I’ll leave him to you!” Tang Hao smiled.
Then, he quietly organized his jade talismans.
After more than an hour, they were close to their destination.
The sky was already dark, and one could vaguely see the lights on the gate of the manor ahead.
A few guards were standing behind the gate.
Thea stepped on the accelerator, and the car sped straight toward the gate.
Bam!
The steel gates were knocked open, and the car rushed straight in. The guards exclaimed in surprise.
Then, an ear-piercing alarm sounded.
The guards took out their guns and shot at the car window.
As the alarm rang, the manor grounds and the ancient castle in the middle sprang into activity. Countless figures rushed out; most of them were dressed as bodyguards and armed with machine guns.
They were all tall and burly.
In the castle, Old Winston stood up, walked to the window, and looked out.
“What’s going on?” He muttered and frowned.
This was Winston Castle, who would dare to barge in and cause trouble?
“Probably just a few petty thieves! How ignorant of them!” Caesar sat on the sofa and said, “The bodyguards will be able to take care of them!”
Hearing the gunshots from the other side, Old Winston nodded and walked back.
He looked at his grandson and shook his head. “You! Why did you go to Huaxia? If people knew that you were defeated, do you know how big the impact would be?”
Caesar’s expression changed, and he gritted his teeth reluctantly.
“That guy from Huaxia is indeed quite powerful…”
“Don’t go to Huaxia in the future! Haven’t you heard? That Old Dragon is also on the loose. Once you meet him, you won’t be able to survive even if you have nine lives.”
“But…”
“But what? You can’t let that woman go? You can get any woman you want with your current status. Why do you care so much about her?” Old Winston grunted angrily.
“That woman is no longer a threat. Without the Witch’s Heart, she’s useless. If she isn’t a threat anymore, then just let her be!”
Caesar remained unwilling.
The gunshot outside did not stop but became more and more intense.
Boom! Boom!
Explosions rocked the manor grounds.
Old Winston glanced out of the window and suddenly stood up. His expression was unpleasant.
“What’s going on? Are those bodyguards useless?”
He was getting angry.
Walking to the window, he saw flames at the front gate.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Exploding rockets sailed across the air and landed in various spots in the manor grounds. The flames from the explosions illuminated the sky.
Old Winston’s eyes widened in shock.
‘How many people did the enemy send over? Who dares to cross the Winston family?’
He immediately walked to the desk, picked up the phone, and called the security office.
“What’s going on? How many people are there?”
The other side hesitated for a moment and answered, “There are… two of them… many of us are dead, almost all of us.”
“Two?”
Old Winston was in disbelief.
Then, his expression darkened. He realized that the people who came were not mundane people, which was why the bodyguards were of no use.
He made another phone call and said, “You guys go. Solve the problem.”
Soon, a group of people walked out from the castle gate. They were all wearing black robes, holding wooden staves, and had grim expressions.
“How dare you cause trouble in Winston Manor? You must have a death wish!”
They rushed forward and activated their magic, causing the wooden staves to flash with brilliance.
At the front gate, the gunfire was ceaseless. One by one, the bodyguards fell to the ground, blood gushing out of their heads. In just a short while, all of them were wiped out, and their corpses lay on the ground.
Amid the smoke, a figure walked over.
Her white dress was like snow, and her golden hair fluttered in the wind. Her beautiful face had an icy expression, and her killing intent was surging like the incoming tide.
The warlocks were stunned. Then, they began to laugh.
“So it’s you! Haha! You actually dare to come back! You don’t know who you’re dealing with!”
The warlocks laughed condescendingly.
She was nothing more than a stray dog. Even they could bully her as they pleased.
“Capture her!”
They shouted and raised their wooden staves, shooting out rays of light.
She stood there without moving.
“Scared?” The warlocks mocked.
She finally moved when the rays of light neared her. She raised her hand, and an overwhelming wave of power spread out, dispersing the rays of light.
The flames and lightning instantly dissipated.
The wave of power surged forward and hit the warlocks squarely.
Crack! Crack!
That was the sound of their bones breaking.
The warlocks’ chests caved in, and they vomited blood and flew out.
After landing on the ground, their faces were full of panic and disbelief.
‘How is this possible?
‘Isn’t she already depowered? Without the Witch’s Heart, how could she remain so powerful?
‘In fact, she’s even stronger than before!’
Thud! Thud!
The figure walked over with large strides. Her body was enveloped in light, and her aura was awe-inspiring.
The warlocks retreated in panic on all fours. Their eyes swept in all directions, and suddenly, they landed on the shimmering golden ring on her finger.
“Don’t… Don’t tell me that…”
They revealed extreme shock and astonishment.
Thea did not say a word. She raised her hand, and a wave of flames shot out, engulfing them and burning them into ashes.
Then, she stepped over the ashes and walked toward the castle.
Wherever she went, there were flames everywhere.
More warlocks rushed out from the castle, but they were all killed and reduced to ashes.
Finally, she arrived in front of the castle. She raised her hand and the flames behind her soared into the sky, turned into the shape of a phoenix, and rushed toward the door.
Boom!
The door was blasted open, and the entire castle shook violently.
Chapter 641 - Shockwaves Across Merrica
At a window of the castle, two figures — one old and one young — stood there in a daze.
“How could it be her? How is this possible?”
They were both in shock and disbelief.
‘Isn’t she already deprived of the Witch’s Heart? Her power should have been greatly reduced, and she shouldn’t be able to cause any trouble.’
However, the Thea in front of them now was too shocking.
Eventually, they came to their senses, and their expressions became extremely unpleasant.
“You’re courting death!”
Caesar roared and jumped out of the window.
“Damn b*tch, you actually dare to come back!”
Caesar roared angrily, and the Witch’s Heart in front of his chest lit up. Flames immediately surged out from his body and shot downwards.
Thea lifted her head. Her sweeping gaze was like lightning.
In an instant, the flames around her coalesced into a fire phoenix and surged toward Caesar.
Boom!
The two fiery forces collided, resulting in a loud explosion.
Violent ripples spread out and shattered the windows of the castle.
Caesar was thrown backward by the shockwave and fell onto the ground. He was in utter shock.
How was he, the great Lord Caesar, no match for her?
How was that possible? He had the power of the Witch’s Heart!
“This is impossible!”
He gritted his teeth, and his face contorted viciously. He jumped up and activated his power like a maniac. Flames surged out and shot forward.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Waves of flames collided with each other.
Caesar gritted his teeth, and his eyes widened as if he had gone mad. Thea, on the other hand, had a cold and indifferent expression on her face, seemingly at ease with the situation.
He was sent flying backward again and again, and his expression became more and more hysterical.
He could not believe that even after using the Witch’s Heart, he was still not a match for her!
‘How was this possible?
‘What on earth is going on with her?’
He got up from the ground again, and his gaze eventually fell on the ring.
His whole body trembled as if he had been struck by lightning.
“That… That is…?” He was in disbelief.
Then, he shook his head crazily and muttered, “No… That’s impossible! How could that thing be in your hands?”
Thea said coldly, “You didn’t expect it, did you? I lost the Witch’s Heart, but I got this…”
She raised her hand and showed him the ring.
Caesar’s expression became extremely unpleasant. He thought that he had finally gotten the upper hand after so many years of humiliation. He had not expected that she would obtain the Supreme Ring.
That was the most powerful of the three major Warlock Artifacts, and it was even stronger than his Witch’s Heart.
“The Witch’s Heart is mine! I want what belongs to me!”
Thea shouted coldly, raised her hand, and sent him flying with a wave of flames. She then walked over, grabbed the gem, and fiercely snatched it.
“No… you can’t take it away. It’s mine!” Caesar roared crazily.
Thea glanced at him coldly. With a wave of her hand, flames surged out and swallowed him.
He rolled on the ground and wailed in agony.
In just a short while, he was reduced into ashes and scattered in the wind.
Thea stood there and breathed a sigh of relief. She felt that the hatred in her heart had dissipated.
Then, she turned her gaze to the castle window above and landed on Old Winston.
‘That’s the most despicable person of all!’
When his eyes met hers, Old Winston was so scared that his body trembled and fell to the ground. His face was deathly pale and full of fear.
He trembled for a while and suddenly got on his feet, preparing to escape.
But at that time, Thea was already at the window.
“Thinking of running away?” She shouted coldly and shot a bolt of fire at Old Winston, causing him to stagger and fall to the floor.
“Don’t… don’t kill me! I was wrong! It’s all my fault!”
He got to his feet, then knelt down with a plop and kowtowed.
Shiya coldly grunted, unmoved. She raised her hand and blasted him to death.
…
At a certain military base in Merrica, an alarm suddenly sounded.
The person on duty was dozing off when he was startled awake. When he saw the flashing red light on the big screen, he frowned and muttered, “Why is there an alarm again?”
He rubbed his eyes and zoomed in on the location on the map. He was stunned for a moment before his eyes widened.
‘Isn’t that the place where the Winston family was located?
‘This is strange! Nothing should have happened at that place. Perhaps they were sparring with each other and accidentally triggered the alarm!’
He thought for a moment and switched off the alarm. Then, he flipped through his phone book.
“Wright family, Clinton family… Oh right, Winston, there you go.”
He picked up the phone and dialed the number.
No one picked up after a long time.
“How strange! Why isn’t anyone picking up?” He wondered to himself.
At that moment, the alarm sounded again, becoming more and more ear-piercing. When he looked up, his mouth opened wide, and the phone in his hand fell to the ground.
On the big screen, the color had turned blood red.
That also meant that the energy level detected had reached the highest level.
That was definitely not something achievable in a sparring session.
Such an energy level had not appeared for a long time. The last time it had appeared was last year, when the Dragon of Huaxia fought with the Divine Eagle.
&n
bsp; “The Winston family… Oh right, Lord Caesar is there. Is the Dragon there to look for him?
“This is bad news!”
He shivered and broke out in cold sweat.
Then, he got up and ran toward the general’s office.
A moment later, a Level S alarm broke through the night sky.
Countless people in the base were stunned.
“Level S! Another Level S! Oh my god! Is the Dragon here again?”
A moment later, a voice was heard through the broadcast system.
“This is HQ. This is HQ paging all Guardians. There is a Level S threat in Winston Castle in N City. Threat Level, s-class. Mobilize immediately and depart for Winston Castle!
“Those nearby, head over immediately. Assess the situation and report immediately if you find anything!”
The broadcast spread throughout the military base and the entire Merrica through the communication network.
At that moment, countless people looked at the bright red S on their watches, dumbfounded.
“Winston Castle? Oh my god! Isn’t that where Lord Caesar is?”
“Is the Dragon… here again?”
The warlocks were in an uproar.
“Kill the Dragon!”
They shouted and got into their cars or rushed to the nearest airbase. They took military planes and rushed to Winston Castle.
White Mountain was also alerted.
After trying to contact the Winston family, the warlocks of the entire White Mountain were mobilized. They rushed to Winston Castle on griffin or airplane.
The Merrican military also mobilized immediately. At various air bases, fighter planes took off and rushed to Winston Castle.
Chapter 642 - Level SS Threat
Many cars drove on the road toward Winston Castle.
Those were all the warlocks from N City, rushing there after receiving the alert.
N City was the largest city in Merrica, and it had the highest concentration of warlocks. The cars converged into a long line and headed toward Winston Castle.
The warlocks in the cars were all nervous.
After all, that was a Level S threat!
The last time that happened, many people died, and even the Divine Eagle was defeated.
That was the reason why the previous Divine Eagle was replaced with a new one.
Did the Dragon of Huaxia have his sights on Lord Caesar?
