In an instant, the fundamental laws of reality closed around him, suppressing and sealing the power he had unleashed. Vast spiritual energy descended like a mountain and pressed down on Ashton. The forse drove his body into the ground and erupted in a thunderous blast.
“You overestimate yourself.”
Elowen moved forward, taking Sylvia with her.
“Stop…”
In a heartbeat, cracks split through Ashton’s body as bones forced back into place. Black flames ignited around him and coiled like massive dark dragons along his frame.
He shot into the air, blocking Elowen’s path. With a sweep of his hand, a massive black sword formed and leveled at her.
“Let her go!” he shouted.
He wasn’t just going to stand by and watch her take the woman he loved. Even if it cost him his life, he
would not allow Elowen to succeed.
Inside the Sloan residence, Roxy and Eunice sensed the violent clash of auras and rushed out. When they saw Ashton covered in blood, with lines of torn flesh splitting across his body, both of them felt
their hearts tremble.
“Ashton!”
Eunice felt as though her heart had been pierced. She stared at him in his frenzied state, her face filled
with worry.
Roxy’s gaze moved between him and Sylvia. As she watched him fight with reckless abandon, a trace of jealousy rose within her.
Once, when she had been abducted, Ashton had stood before her in the same way, disregarding his own life and refusing to let her suffer even the slightest harm. Perhaps love didn’t disappear, but only changed its direction.
Soon, other experts arrived. When they saw Ashton confronting Elowen, they were stunned.

“The Stellar Hall?”
An elderly man with deep–set eyes spoke slowly.

As the crowd grew larger, Elowen’s eyes narrowed, and a cold killing intent burst from her eyes. She fell silent for a moment, as if weighing the consequences of killing Ashton.
“I will say this one more time. From today onward, she is the Holy Maiden of the Stellar Hall. She has nothing to do with you,” she said,
“Under our prior agreement, I am not supposed to kill an insect like you. But only if you do not seek death yourself. If you continue to block my path, don’t blame me for showing no mercy.”
