Chapter 5
At this moment, Gavin, who was unharmed, stood in the middle of the Harper Villa’s grand hall. His body was tense. Every muscle coiled with restrained anger. His eyes, cold and piercing, scanned the room, taking in the fallen bodies around him.
All around him, these people had already fallen to the ground. Their faces contorted in fear and pain, and their lifeless eyes stared into nothingness. The air was heavy with the stench of blood, a stark reminder of the violence that had unfolded in this once elegant hall. The sight of his enemies lying lifeless on the ground brought a twisted satisfaction to Gavin’s heart.
These individuals hadn’t even come close to Gavin, yet they had met their inevitable fate.
In the hall, the guests who had come to attend Samuel’s birthday celebration were dumbfounded.
They stared in shock and fear at Gavin, who stood proudly in the center of the hall.
However, Gavin paid no attention to the gazes around him. Over the years, he had gotten used to terrified gazes like these. Things like this happened around him every day. Driven by fury and the strong desire to avenge his family’s death, he only fixed his eyes on his enemy before him, not giving anyone else his attention.
At the same time, on the floor, Xavier, the one Gavin had slapped away, slowly twitched and managed to lift himself up.
His face was half covered in blood, and his eyes were empty. He looked dumbfounded as if he had no idea what had just happened.
Thud!”
Thud!”
“Thud!”
Footsteps echoed as Gavin approached. They sounded ‘slow and stable; but everyone present felt the killing intent as they approached, which sent shivers down people’s spihes.
Xavier’s vacant gaze slowly shifted toward the source of the sound.
He then realized that Gavin was walking toward him with an expressionless face.
When Xavier saw Gavin’s expressionless face, a sinister grin finally crept onto his face.
He tried to speak, but the intense pain on his face made him scream.
He cried out, “Ah!”
Hearing Xavier’s scream, Samuel, who was his grandfather, instantly spoke up.
He exclaimed, “Xavier, are you okay? Are you okay?
“Kid, what are you trying to do? Don’t come any closer!”
As Gavin approached Xavier, Gavin lowered his head and looked at Xavier with a blank expression. No one could tell what he was thinking at the moment, but it was obvious that he was enveloped by a strong killing intent. His hoarse voice sounded once more.
He asked, “Are you Xavier?
“Are you the one who sent people to chase after my sister?”
After hearing Gavin’s cold voice, Xavier stared at him with his bloodshot eyes. At this moment, mixed feelings surged into his heart. There was fury, perplexity, despair, and grievance. However, one thing was for sure. There was no regret. He endured the excruciating pain and struggled to speak.
L
He bellowed, seeming to have used up his energy. “You scoundrel!
“How dare you strike me?
“I am Xavier, the young heir of the Harper family. The Harper family will make sure you are torn to pieces!
“Boom!”
Right after Xavier finished his words, he spat out a mouthful of blood.
At that moment, Gavin’s right foot arrived in front of Xavier’s face.
With a muffled thud, Xavier’s head instantly exploded.
“Xavier!”
The Harper family members’ screams echoed through the hall.
After seeing that, Samuel and Xavier’s father, Cameron Harper, the middle-aged man who spoke earlier, were seething with
anger.
Cameron’s eyes turned red instantly. They were filled with sadness. He clenched his teeth and shouted, “Kid! I will make sure you meet a gruesome end! I will tear you to pieces!”
However, despite the outbursts, he didn’t charge forward to confront Gavin.
He did not even do as much as Xavier’s mother had.
After he heard the man speak, Gavin slowly turned his head. He locked his cold gaze on Cameron, Samuel, and the rest.
His tone remained calm as he said coldly, “Don’t rush. You will join him soon.”
After saying that, Gavin turned to face the Harper family.
The guests who had gathered for Samuel’s birthday celebration watched in horror as Xavier’s gruesome fate unfolded. Seeing what happened to Xavier, many people felt a queasy sensation in their stomachs.
Moreover, some of them even vomited.
A few women, who were overwhelmed by fear, screamed, “Murder! Help! There is a murderer!”
It seemed that Gavin was irritated by the chaos and cries.
Gavin surveyed the room and then stated with a measured tone, “Today, I am here solely for the Harper family. All others, leave immediately.”
Gavin continued, “Otherwise, I will show no mercy.”
Upon hearing that, the guests nearby instantly paled.
They were extremely terrified.
In the next moment, they frantically shouted and scattered in all directions.
Very soon, only the servants of the Harper family and the bloodline members of the Harper family remained in the grand hall
Gavin made no attempt to stop them. As he had stated, Gavin was there only for the Harper family.
Once the others had fled, Gavin refocused his attention on Samuel and the others.

His voice was cold as he spoke up. He asked, “Why did you want to annihilate the Clifford family?”
After hearing Gavin’s question, Samuel and the others flinched.
Samuel immediately retorted with a stern tone, “You’re talking nonsense. The Harper family has always abided by the law, and we would never commit murder or arson.”
The words came out as if Samuel couldn’t believe them himself.
From the embarrassment in his eyes when Samuel spoke, Gavin understood that Samuel was telling a lie.
Gavin had no intention of repeating the question. He shook his head and said, “If that is the case, I will send you on your
way.”
Just as Gavin finished his sentence, a deafening sound rang out.
“How dare you!”
The sound was so tremendous that it made the ordinary members of the Harper family present feel like their eardrums were about to burst.
However, the Harper family members’ faces lit up with intense joy when they heard that.
After seeing that, Samuel even shouted aloud.
He exclaimed, “Mr. Mason, you have finally arrived!
“Quickly kill him! He is Gavin, the remnant of the Clifford family from 10 years ago! Kill him!”
With his words, Samuel just contradicted himself.
He had just claimed the Harper family’s innocence regarding the massacre of the Clifford family, yet now Gavin had instantly become the remnant of the Clifford family in his eyes.
A gust of wind swept through the hall.
A middle-aged man, who appeared to be in his 40s, appeared out of thin air in the hall of the Harper Villa.
As he stood between Gavin and the Harper family, he gazed at Gavin with cold eyes.
He seemed to be sizing up Gavin.
Following that, a smug smile appeared in his eyes. He then spoke to Gavin.
He asked, “Are you a warrior?” The tone of his voice implied disbelief.
Gavin didn’t respond to his question.
The man, Gabriel Mason, stared at Gavin with a more pronounced look of disdain.
He continued, “You don’t have the slightest hint of inner energy. Even if you are a warrior, you’re nothing more than a low- level warrior.
“If you weren’t a remnant of the Clifford family, I wouldn’t even bother wasting my time with a low-level warrior like you.”
His tone made it seem as if engaging with Gavin, a warrior he considered worthless, would be a stain on his honor.
However, at that moment, Gavin raised an eyebrow and turned to Gabriel.
He asked, “So were you involved in the slaughter of the Clifford family?”

“Hah!” After hearing that, Gabriel had a sneer on his face.
He replied, “The Clifford family is nothing but bastards. Don’t worry. I will send you to reunite with them soon.”
After Gabriel said that, his aura underwent a sudden transformation.
His clothes began to flutter without any apparent wind.
After that, he roared, “Die!”
Instantly, he soared into the air and charged directly at Gavin.
The Harper family members watched this from behind. They expressed delight as soon as they saw this scene. In their Gavin had already turned into a hideous corpse.
With a fierce and powerful punch, Gabriel aimed for Gavin’s face.
At that moment, Gabriel and the Harper family members expected Gavin’s head to explode.
In the next moment, a soft sound rang out.
Gavin nonchalantly caught Gabriel’s forceful punch with a single hand.
Gabriel was horrified to discover that all of his unleashed power had suddenly disappeared. novelbin
Moreover, Gavin had firmly immobilized him in place with just one hand, rendering him powerless to struggle.
The Harper family members couldn’t figure out what had happened. They witnessed this scene with bewildered expressions. Xavier’s father, Cameron, then spoke up.
He asked, “Mr. Mason, what are you waiting for? Just kill him,
After Cameron finished his words, a cracking sound followed.
“Crack!”
“Ah!”
After that, a blood-curdling scream resounded.
However, this agonizing scream did not come from Gavin.
