The convertible sports car sped on the wide asphalt road toward the hotel.

In the car...

William felt extremely happy. He took a deep breath to inhale some fresh air before he said to Thomas, “I really thought I would die back there. There’s basically no way to stay alive once they capture you. I was most afraid of Adery coming over to rescue me. If she was also dragged into this, I would not die peacefully.

“Luckily you’re here, Thomas. If it’s not because of you, I really couldn’t survive. You’re my savior. This time, I really don’t know how I should repay your kindness.

“If this is not sufficient, I can even let Adery be your second wife, your concubine!”

Pfft!

Thomas nearly lost control of the steering wheel. If Emma heard that, she would kill him.

“No, it’s okay.”

He chuckled and said, “Mr. Owen, you’re Stone’s father. Stone is my brother. On the west coast, he had rescued my life countless times. Without Stone, I would’ve died due to sickness and injuries. He passed away,

    He paused for a while before he asked, “All right, where are we going now?”Thomas smiled faintly as he answered, “We’re heading back to the hotel to meet up with Adery.”“Adery’s here?”“Yes, she felt worried being in the Southland District alone, so she insisted on coming over. Currently, I have her settled down in the hotel.”“Oh, let’s go back quickly and report my safety so that she can be relieved.”“Okay!”He stepped more on the accelerator and increased the speed of the car. Then, the car was driven speedily.…… In the hotel.After Adery woke up, she realized that she was the only one left in the room. So, she knew that Thomas had departed to rescue her father.She felt worked up, but she could not do anything with it.She could only wait.She had waited for a few hours, yet she did not see them coming back. She felt worked up and hungry, so she took the key and left the room before she arrived in the lobby on the hotel’s first floor.Adery left the hotel, found a

    The waiter nodded like he deserved some punches. Then, he said in a firm tone, “Yes, in our restaurant, each shrimp is considered one set.”He appeared very gentle, but his words were really rude!Twenty thousand dollars was actually nothing for someone from a good background like Adery, and she could totally afford it. The problem was, even if she could afford it, it did not mean that she should be charged for nothing!She understood it.This restaurant purposely cheated foreign visitors who looked quite rich.For one, foreign visitors did not have any help there. Plus, they would not want to get into trouble, so they would just let it go. Therefore, most of them would just grit their teeth and close one eye.But Adery refused to let it go!She was born to be stubborn. How could she suffer this kind of loss?She said with an unfriendly tone, “You’re increasing the price and purposely deceiving the customers! I’m now calling the Department of Internal Trade to ask how you fix t

    Adery was very unhappy, but she still retained her wisdom. She still knew how to choose between money, dignity, and personal safety.She opened her bag and reached out to take out a bank card.She felt disgusted, aggrieved, and helpless.The waiter happily nodded. “This is right.”He took over a card machine, and he prepared to take over her card and swiped it. But, a muscular figure came over and forcefully moved two security guards aside.A big palm took the bank card away.“This meal is on my treat.”Everyone was stunned by this, and they looked at the man who spoke at the same time.Adery turned her head slightly. The moment she saw the man, her eyes became teary. The person who came was none other than Thomas, whom Adery had been missing!He was back.“Thomas!”Adery shouted in agitation. If there had not been many people, she would have probably not been able to control herself from rushing forward and hugging him.Thomas was back, and this meant he was fine. That als

    The waiter was freaked out, so he quickly knelt down and begged for mercy.“Please don’t beat us up anymore.“I don’t want the $10,000 now, okay?”Thomas shook his head. “How could this be? We’re not people who dined and dashed. I can’t really do things like not paying for my own food.”The waiter was totally speechless.Their unscrupulous shop was the most afraid of encountering this kind of strong and unreasonable person.The big shop could deceive customers, while the overbearing customers could also bully the shop.Thomas’ ability surpassed all the security guards in the restaurant, and he was even “unreasonable” after that. The restaurant could only give in when it encountered this kind of person.The waiter cried as he said, “Um, it’s actually one plate for one set of the shrimps, and each set is $178. Just now you already ‘paid’ $1,000, so it’s more than enough now.”His words made everyone in the restaurant smile.The unscrupulous restaurant finally regained its consc

    William smiled faintly as he answered, “I was more scared than hurt. Luckily, Thomas helped me, or I would have lost my life in South City. Come, get into the car.”Car?At this time, Adery saw the convertible sports car in front of her. It looked like it cost a few million dollars.“Dad, this car?” “It was given by someone.”“Who?”“The people who kidnapped me.”Adery was confused. How could those kidnappers give him a car? What kind of joke was this?Thomas walked over and said, “We can’t explain it clearly in an instant. Get into the car first. Let’s talk on the way.”They got into the car before Thomas activated the engine, and he targeted the destination at a KTV operated by Water Cloud. On the way, William told Adery about the purpose of his visit to South City and how he got involved with Mandrill and his gang. After listening to her father’s explanation, Adery felt scared too.Without Thomas, not only William but she, too, would have died in South City.This place

    William glanced at the woman and chuckled.“The name Sophia means wisdom, but this lady doesn’t look like a wise woman. Do you want to look smarter with that name?”Sophia looked unhappy. “Hey, old man, how can you speak like that?”Merrick laughed. “Mr. Owen is still so humorous as usual. Please continue singing. See you later.”He led Sophia to leave.William felt worried as he said, “Merrick must not come here for any good deed. Is he also coming for the Asclepius Needles?”Thomas remained silent at the side.Based on the previous investigation, if his guess was not wrong, the Dawson family should be secretly carrying out human organ trafficking.They were temporarily out of stock because they were investigated by the police previously.The Dawson family had come to South City this time, and they might be aiming for the human organs in the underground market if there were any.The three of them also did not intend to sing. They just patiently waited.Soon, it was time for

    There were 24 items on the menu, so the auction would be very long.William scrolled through the menu, and he found the item that he wanted to bid on the eighth, which was Asclepius Needles.Right then, Merrick, who was in front, turned around and smiled. “Mr. Owen, what do you want to bid on this time?” he asked.William ignored him.Merrick chuckled as he said, “Mr. Owen, the Dawson family is on good terms with the Owen family. If you don’t have a sufficient amount of money, just tell me, I’ll lend it to you. But the precondition is that you don’t bid on the same thing as me. Otherwise, I’ll feel very awkward.“Oh yeah, let me tell you in advance, I’m eyeing the set of Asclepius Needles, so I hope you won’t seize the thing I love, Mr. Owen.”He clearly knew what William wanted, so he said that to make a concession in order to gain advantages. This was quite impressive.Displeased, Adery said, “Merrick Dawson, the Dawson family members are surgeons. Why do you need Asclepius Ne

    As the auction items were shown one by one, the atmosphere in the auction was also ignited.After people bade on the first five items, the host introduced the sixth auctioned item, which was a jade necklace.Besides, this necklace had a deep meaning. It was said that a ninety-year-old man bought it for his wife when he was young. When his wife died later, he sold the necklace off.Then, the owner of this necklace changed a few times before it came to Water Cloud.This was a jade necklace that represented love.The starting price was $3,000,000.The price raised each time must not be lower than $500,000.After Thomas saw the jade necklace and heard the description, he was stunned for more than ten seconds.Why did this necklace look so familiar? Why did he seem to have heard about its background story?When he carefully recalled it in his memories, he remembered that he had bought the necklace for Emma when he had accompanied her on a business trip.That necklace was kept by E

With that, all the remaining accomplices of Luck were caught in one fell swoop!The two million innocent citizens were saved, as all of them took the antidote.Once again, Thomas saved the day.In order to express their gratitude, the citizens decided to erect statues of Thomas in Celandine City and many other cities as well.In the House of Vistaria.Phoebe ran towards her father hurriedly. She then smiled at him and said, “What did I tell you, dad? Thomas will definitely turn things around, right? I won!”Declan was so agitated, that he started tearing up.Thomas was really too amazing. He was capable of turning things around, even in such a predicament.At the same time, the curse that had plagued the Mars family for over a thousand years was finally broken. From then onwards, Declan was finally

    Luck was dumbfounded. Why was Thomas still alive and kicking?“No need to doubt your own eyes. I am indeed still alive.”The crowd parted, making way for a very familiar figure. It was Thomas, the very Thomas whom the public watched him die.As he walked, he said, “Our previous research has already reached ninety-nine percent completion. But no matter how hard we tried, the final one percent remained out of our grasp. At that time, I thought that perhaps the only way was to drink the Ancestral Water and experience the poison itself, which would allow me to have a breakthrough for the final one percent.“And that was what happened. I managed to do it.“After drinking the Ancestral Water, I finally understood what the one percent was and successfully created the antidote for Ancestral Water. Now that the antidote has been created, it will sever your connection with the Ancestral Water.“You will not be able to kill anyone anymore.“You have lost, Luck.”Lost?Luck's eyes were wi

    It was obvious that Eric could not afford to take a gamble this time. But he had no choice. His only choice was to listen to whatever the other party said and prepare a helicopter in twelve hours’ time.That was not all. He was also supposed to request for his superiors to help Luck get out of the country.The thought of it made Eric furious.“Damn it!”He left in anger to deal with the rest of the matter.The sky of Celandine City was covered with clouds.The patriarch, Declan, was in his garden in the House of Vistaria. He stared at the withered flowers as he grieved.His entire life was spent supporting Mr. Cole in hopes that he would be able to create an antidote to Ancestral Water. But at the end of the day, Mr. Cole accomplished nothing.His two disciples — Capricious Holy Hand Elliot, and Thomas — were both dead.There was no one in the world who was capable of creating the antidote for Ancestral Water anymore.“Alas...” Declan sighed. It seemed that it was impossible

    At that moment, the general public was suddenly dumbfounded, as if struck by lightning. Everyone was down in the dumps.Many of those with poor psychological strength directly collapsed on the ground.They believed Thomas' death could be exchanged for their own safety, but who knew, in the end, they got nothing, and Luck, as usual, used their lives as a bargaining chip to force the authorities to listen to His Majesty's words.No antidote to Ancestral Water would ever be created by chance.The lives of people were still in His Majesty's hands.Whenever luck wanted them to die, they would die without any ability to resist.However, this was not the most frightening part. What was even more frightening than this was that the only person who could create the antidote to Ancestral Water had been forced to die alive by them.It would be impossible to create the antidote to Ancestral Water without Thomas.Mr. Cole and Elliot had all died, Thomas was the last person who mastered the

    Eric sighed deeply, "Thomas, even though things have reached this point, you still remain so kind.""I have nothing to say except to choose death because the research failed." Thomas let out a long breath. "Before I die, I want to talk to my family on the phone."Originally, Emma and the others came to Celandine City because they wanted to be reunited with Thomas.Who knew it had turned into a life and death situation?The world was like a chess game; everything was unpredictable.When Thomas was video calling with his family, Emma was already bathed in tears at the other end. She was crying and shouting at Thomas to not be impulsive, and saying perhaps there was still room for things to turn around.That was what she thought, but it was not the case.Every minute Thomas dragged on, more people perished as the result of Ancestral Water, and the crowd’s fear and rage grew.Thomas’ life no longer belonged to him."Honey, take care of the baby."I love you."Those were Thomas’

    For such demanding research, half a day was really too short.Thomas had recruited the best doctors and researchers he could find to work on a detailed study of Ancestral Water.In the past, it was difficult to achieve breakthroughs in the research on Ancestral Water. That was because figuring out how to create an antidote for the Ancestral Water was challenging. On the other hand, it was also because obtaining the Ancestral Water was incredibly difficult. Because they only had a few samples, the results were underwhelming.However, it was different now. Because the entire city's water supply had been turned into Ancestral Water, they were able to collect the samples at their convenience. This made it much easier for Thomas and the others to get the materials.With Thomas in charge, hundreds of researchers were conducting a massive study in just half a day. Unfortunately, things did not go according to plan.Thomas still failed. “We almost got it.“We were so close to makin

    How sinister. “All we want is nothing but—safety.“As long as we’re safe, we definitely won’t make it difficult for everyone. If we’re safe, no one will die.“Now then, I have a small request to make to ensure everyone’s safety.“I demand that Thomas drink Ancestral Water immediately! This person is a real hassle for His Majesty, and we must keep him under our control for our own protection. Please forgive us for the inconvenience.“We'll only give everyone half a day to consider this. The emperor will begin killing people if Thomas does not step forward and drink Ancestral Water by this afternoon.“Okay. I've said everything I wanted to say. Goodbye.” The TV screen went dark, and so did Eric's face.He kicked the trash can over and said fiercely, “What is this? You're the only person in the world who can create an antidote for Ancestral Water’s poison, Thomas!“Once you drink Ancestral Water, you’ll be controlled by them!“Won't you have to obey Luck's every command by the

    After listening to Thomas’ description, Eric also displayed a look of shock and said two words, “As expected.”What did he mean by, as expected?Was it possible that Eric knew that Luck was behind it from the start?“Thomas, follow me.”Eric took Thomas into an empty ward and locked the door. The two sat in the corner of the ward.He whispered, “There is a piece of news that I haven’t announced to the public, that is, besides Celandine City, there are more than ten cities that have problems. Do you know which cities they are?”Thomas’ eyes lit up. He already knew what Eric wanted to say.At the previous meeting, Eric had clearly stated that more than ten cities across the country had been controlled by Luck. Now, there happened to have more than ten cities where residents had been poisoned.Was there such a coincidence?Thomas said, “The residents are poisoned by Ancestral Water. Over ten cities are all under the control of Luck’s forces, so it is almost a certainty that Luck

    “I didn’t. I saw the news early in the morning and was shocked. I haven’t dared to drink a sip of water until now.” Pisces took a deep breath and said, “Is this a natural disaster or a man-made disaster? It’s really terrible.”No matter whether it was a natural disaster or a man-made disaster, it was no small matter.Soon, Thomas drove to the hospital.Eric had been waiting here for a long time. As soon as he saw Thomas coming, he quickly let him enter the ward.He saw a patient lying on the hospital bed with his eyes closed, and his body was trembling. Although it was very hot, he was as cold as if he had just been lifted out of the freezer.A doctor walked over and said, “Mr. Mayo, let me tell you the general overview of the current situation.”The virus was spread through water sources.After drinking water with the virus, the virus would lurk in the human body.However, lurking did not mean that it would cause an outbreak.At present, over one hundred thousand people had b
