Chapter 773
Ashton sneered. “I’ve already told you that you won’t be able to save Gareth, just as you can’t kill me, Wycliffe! You should remain in Jalun and wait for me–I’ll come for your head!
“You should also be warned that if any Jalunese bastards dare to cause trouble in Casoria again, they’ll be executed on sight! Gareth’s fate is exactly what’s in store for the rest of you!”
Ashton’s eyes burned with frenzied flames as the eternal Sovereign Flame utterly incinerated Gareth. The acrid, biting scent of charred flesh soon filled the air, carried off by the breeze.
Those present were stunned as they stared at Ashton standing alone on the deathmatch stage. They could hardly believe Gareth had died, let alone in such a horrific and wretched manner.
“Ashton is unbelievably ruthless!”
“Just having the guts to kill Gareth in front of Wycliffe is enough to make Ashton the undisputed figure in Javonbury!”
“Ashton is so attractive! Who wouldn’t fall in love with a man like that?”
‘Ashton is the very image of a hero! He’s a role model for us all! Javonbury should be honored to have someone like Ashton!”
There was a brief silence over the deathmatch stage before Wycliffe’s faint, flickering projection solidified again. He looked down at Ashton, his eyes brimming with absolute indifference as he declared coldly, “I’ll be waiting for you to come challenge me, then!”
Having said that, Wycliffe’s projection vanished into thin air, leaving no trace of its presence. That suffocating killing intent left the deathmatch stage as well.
It was only then that blood trickled from Ashton’s lips. His breathing turned labored, and his legs grew weak, leaving him staggering on the spot.
After all, he had expended far too much spiritual energy to kill Gareth.
Still, he was stunned, as pushing himself to the limit had somehow triggered a further awakening of his Drakeborne lineage. He found that the bloodline power within him was surging violently. “It seems like there’s something different about my Drakeborne lineage…”
Ashton narrowed his eyes, sensing the shackles that had always bound his Drakeborne lineage. He knew that if those shackles ever broke, his bloodline power would become something monstrous–far beyond his ability to command.
He pushed the thoughts aside for now. After all, he was one step away from confronting Flint and seizing the position as the ruler of the criminal underworld of Javonbury.
Ashton took a deep breath, forcing his bloodline power to surge through every fiber of his being. It caused his black flames to erupt around him in a violent whirlwind.
He stepped forward and glared at Flint, his voice sharp and overbearing as it echoed through the deathmatch stage. “You’d better come up here and face the inevitable, Mr. Vance!”
That single declaration sent a tremor through the crowd as people clenched their fists and held their breath. Though their reactions varied, everyone was pushed to the peak of excitement and nerves. They were well aware that the fight had reached its ultimate stage, and the final showdown was officially underway.
“It’s simply beyond belief! Who would have thought that Ashton could actually tear through the Sage’s inescapable trap? There is no doubt that we’re witnessing a miracle–the birth of a legend–right now!
“It seems like there’s only one fight left! Ashton will become the strongest ruler of the criminal underworld of Javonbury if he wins the next fight! He’s on the verge of making history!”
“Ashton is severely wounded, though. Is there truly enough left in him to face the Sage?”

“I’m certain Ashton won’t stop until he’s down for good! I’ve got a gut feeling that he’s going to come out on top in this final
round!”
“You’re being utterly delusional now! How can a man on the verge of death be the Sage’s opponent? You’ve all seemed to have forgotten that the Sage is the true legend who has ruled Javonbury for decades. His authority is absolute!
“You should just wait and see how Ashton falls at the very end. All he achieved today will only serve to further the Sage’s glory!”
