In that instant, the transcendental domains collided, causing the whole area to shake. Cracks on the ground expanded rapidly, and even the horizon seemed to split open.
Callum landed and shot a wary glance at Queenie before letting out a smile. “It’s been a while, Queenie. You’ve become stronger–something I’ve never expected. It’s something worth celebrating!
“You shouldn’t have gotten yourself involved in this mess, though. You’ve already withdrawn from the Legion long ago, so perhaps it’s best to cut all ties with them!”
“Dad!” Rose exclaimed, looking visibly excited.
She then glanced at the pale–faced Wanda and said with a sneer, “It is Ashton’s fate to face judgment from the Heavenly Medical Pavilion, just as it is your fate to marry into it, Wanda! You should stop clinging to such hopeless fantasies!”
Wanda’s heart sank, her brief moment of optimism vanishing. She hadn’t expected Callum to come out of seclusion to intervene in this matter personally. He was clearly set on ruining Ashton and crushing the Legion’s future.
“You’re truly a sly and elusive one!”
Queenie shot Calllum a disdainful glance. “You should have arrived long ago. If I’m not mistaken, that old
bastard Lawrence once trampled and humiliated you back then. You must have despised him with every
fiber of your being.
“Yet, even with Lawrence on his deathbed, you lacked the courage to face him publicly. You’ve lived in fear of him, haven’t you? You only dared to crawl out once he became a vegetable. How pathetic! You, the great head of the Heavenly Medical Pavilion, are nothing more than just a piece of trash!”
Queenie was blunt and cold, humiliating Callum without the slightest bit of restraint.
“You’ve gone too far, Queenie!”
Callum’s expression turned chillingly cold. He had clearly been poked in his sore spot.
“You think I’ve gone too far, huh? Did I say anything that wasn’t true, though? You likely want to kill Lawrence yourself more than anything, yet the reality is you were too scared to face him. You’re even more pathetic than trash like Jaden.
“You, a mere coward, have no right to tell me that I’ve gone too far! You’d better get lost and stay out of my way while I kill Shane!” Queenie snapped.
Queenie turned her piercing gaze back to Shane. She forced the sealed space around him to shrink without a second thought, causing a terrifying crushing energy to surge toward him like a torrent.
Shane’s eyes widened and turned bloodshot as his body twisted from the compression, his skeleton snapping and popping.

“Please save me, Mr. Callum!” Shane screamed in horror, overwhelmed by the threat of death.
He tried to summon every bit of his power, but it was snuffed out instantly. He couldn’t break free from the lethal enclosure as the space itself began to collapse around him.
At the current speed, Shane and the entire compressed area would be pulverized into particles within dozens of seconds.
That technique represented the peak of Queenie’s spatial power, a technique known as Mortal Domain.
