Chapter 645 To Ashes
Aisha looked at the stunning women standing beside Yuan with a look of surprise. She had never seen so many beautiful women gathered in one place before. Each of them radiated an otherworldly charm, like goddesses who had descended from the heavens.
'I can't believe these incredible women are my nephew's wives! This is unreal! My nephew isn't just handsome—he's romantic and seems to have quite the appetite for women,' Aisha thought, her surprise evident in her expression. She had never imagined her nephew would be so extraordinary, with so many exquisite women willingly devoted to him.
Moreover, she could sense the deep love they shared and the harmonious bond between them. It was something she had never witnessed before, leaving her utterly amazed.
"It's a pleasure to meet you all… This still feels like a dream," Aisha said softly, a smile gracing her lips as tears welled up in her eyes. "After all, I've been searching for my Big Sister, Anna Grace, for so long. And now, I've finally reunited with her." She wiped her tears, overwhelmed by emotion.
As Aisha turned her gaze to Yuan, she couldn't help but be captivated by his striking appearance. Her heart skipped a beat.
'Is this really my nephew? He's so handsome and charming! No wonder these women have fallen for him and chosen to follow him. It all makes sense now,' she thought, still amazed, as she stepped closer to Yuan and Lily.
Her eyes shifted to Lily. 'So, this lovely young woman is my niece. She looks so much like my Big Sister, but there's something different about her demeanor—so poised and refined.'
'Now that I think about it, my Big Sister herself looks so youthful—nothing like a middle-aged woman. What kind of beauty secrets is she keeping?' Aisha wondered, her curiosity piqued. However, she decided it wasn't the right time to ask such questions. She had only just reunited with her sister and met her handsome nephew and beautiful niece.
Standing before Yuan and Lily, Aisha's face lit up with excitement. She pulled them both into a warm, tight embrace, holding them close.
"I'm so happy to finally meet the two of you," she whispered softly, her voice filled with affection and warmth.
Lily released herself gently from the hug and spoke with a kind smile, "I'm very surprised to learn we have an aunt. Our moms never told us about you. They rarely talked about their past." As she finished speaking, she stole a quick glance at Anna Grace.
Anna Grace, noticing Lily's gaze, quickly looked away, pretending not to have noticed her.
'She's acting as if she didn't notice my gaze at all! You sly fox!' Lily muttered inwardly, feeling slightly irritated at her mom.
"Anyway, why don't you tell us a bit about yourselves?" Aisha suggested with a gentle smile, her excitement evident as she glanced between Yuan and Lily. "I'd love to get to know you both better—it would be a great way for us to connect."
"I think that's a great idea," Lily replied with an enthusiastic smile. "Besides, we're also curious about you and your family. Our moms rarely talk about their past, so this would be a chance to learn more."
"That's wonderful!" Aisha's smile grew brighter. However, her expression shifted to one of curiosity when her eyes landed on Gordon, who was barely kneeling on the ground. His face was pale, and his hollow expression suggested he had resigned himself to his fate.
"What's going on with him? What's a servant of the Drake family doing here, and why does he look like a complete wreck?" Aisha asked, her tone both surprised and intrigued as she studied Gordon's disheveled appearance.
"Well, I'm the one responsible for that," Emma said, raising her hand with a small, proud smile. She stood confidently next to Yuan, her eyes gleaming with satisfaction.
Aisha stared at Emma in surprise. She couldn't sense any mana from her—or from anyone else in the room, for that matter. It was as though none of them possessed any mana at all.
'How strange… Why can't I sense any mana from them? Don't tell me they don't have mana in their bodies—but that's impossible! Or… could they be so powerful that their mana is completely concealed from me?' Aisha wondered, her curiosity growing. She had already witnessed Yuan's astonishing strength, like when he lifted the mysterious spear and flew effortlessly.
"Let me guess," Aisha said with a knowing smile, turning back to Emma and the others. "He came here intending to take you beautiful ladies to his Young Master's room so that his 'Young Master' could have some fun, didn't he?"
"That's right," Lily replied, her tone smug and her smile filled with pride. "Yuan broke a few of his bones with his pressure alone, and later, Emma tortured him a bit with her poison."
Aisha nodded, letting out a sigh. "I see. Just as I expected from the infamous Drake family—they've always been notorious for targeting beautiful women. It's no wonder they don't get along with the other Ten Great Families, including our Blank family."
"Well," Fang Xiaoyan interjected, stepping forward with a cold, vicious grin on her face. Her eyes locked onto Gordon's trembling figure in the center of the room. "This is my time to shine. I'll make sure he meets the most painful and horrifying end possible."
"He already looks like a dead man to me, Xiaoyan. Just make sure he remembers every moment of this until his grave," Yuan said with a smirk, pulling Anna Grace into his embrace as he sat on the sofa. He gently positioned her on his lap.
Anna Grace gazed at Yuan affectionately, kissed his cheek, and smiled before wrapping her arms around his neck. She rested her head against his chest, her expression radiating warmth and love.
Fang Xiaoyan stepped toward Gordon, her wide, vicious grin sending shivers down his spine. Her predatory gaze lingered on him, making him feel as though he were standing before a being far beyond human comprehension.
'What is this overwhelming presence?!' Gordon screamed inwardly, his mind racing. 'Every instinct I have is screaming at me not to move! Who is this woman? What kind of monstrous power does she possess?!'
Before he could react further, an oppressive heat began to emanate from Fang Xiaoyan. His entire body froze in terror as he braced himself for the worst.
"This is the end for you," Fang Xiaoyan declared, her voice dripping with disdain and loathing. "Suffer the consequences of entering this room with such vile intentions. Your death will be slow, and every moment of your punishment will be etched into your soul as your body is reduced to cinders."
With a flick of her fingers, a small wisp of flame materialized, dancing ominously at her fingertip. With a graceful wave of her hand, the flame shot toward Gordon, engulfing his entire body in an eerie blaze.
But the fire didn't consume him all at once. Instead, it began at his legs, burning slowly and deliberately as it crept upward toward his torso.
"Aghhhh!!!"
Gordon's agonized screams filled the room, his voice cracking under the weight of unbearable pain. The slow, relentless fire consumed him, leaving nothing but ash in its wake.
Never in his life had Gordon imagined such an end. He had faithfully served his Young Master, Denise Drake, carrying out his every whim, no matter how deplorable. He had forced countless young and beautiful women into Drake's chambers, ignoring their pleas and disregarding their humanity. Their fates were sealed the moment Drake laid eyes on them.
But now, the life of luxury Gordon had pursued so ruthlessly had crumbled. His arrogance and blind loyalty had brought him to this moment—a horrifying, agonizing death as his body turned to ash.
Across the room, Aisha Blank stared in horror, her face pale as she watched the scene unfold. She had never imagined such cruelty from someone like Fang Xiaoyan, who seemed so poised and elegant.
To kill a human being in such a methodical and merciless manner—it was beyond Aisha's comprehension. To her, it was nothing short of monstrous.
'Just what kind of women did my handsome nephew seduce and marry? She's on a whole other level!' Aisha swallowed nervously, her eyes fixed on Fang Xiaoyan with a look of utter disbelief.
Moments later, Gordon's agonized screams came to an abrupt halt as he took his final breath. His body, now completely reduced to ashes, lingered for only a moment longer before Fang Xiaoyan flicked her hand. The ashes vanished instantly, leaving no trace of the horrifying event.
Aisha stood frozen, her mouth slightly ajar, struggling to process what she had just witnessed. She felt as though the ground had shifted beneath her feet.
'W-What the hell just happened?!' she screamed inwardly, her mind racing in disbelief. The scene replayed over and over in her head, yet it still felt surreal.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
Meanwhile, in his VIP room, Denise sat with growing impatience as he continued to bid on the Purple Lightning Gauntlet displayed at the auction. The gauntlet had captured his attention instantly—it was a weapon perfectly suited to his taste and power.
'Where the hell is Gordon?' Denise muttered inwardly, tapping his fingers on the armrest of his chair in irritation. 'He should have returned by now. I'm getting impatient—I need to get my hands on those beautiful women! What's taking him so long?!
