Henry had only been testing his guess, but to his surprise, he was right.Based on what he knew, the person in front of him had to be one of four powerhouses. Judging by the figure and movements, it could not be Kevin the Arctic Titan, nor Lucifer the Westin Curia Master. That left only Shane or Jorge.Initially, Henry suspected Jorge, but the techniques, the fact that the person did not stop Lydia and that they did not go hard on Martha, coupled with the lack of a strong killing intent toward him, led Henry to conclude that it could only be Shane.Without answering, Henry instead asked in confusion, "Why?"Shane let out a sigh and explained, "From what I know, when your father was on the brink of death, he was saved by a jade pendant, which improved his health. I wanted to see if pushing you to the edge would activate the pendant's power within you."He smiled wryly. He could not take all of the three powerhouses down by himself. The only solution was to help Henry grow as fast a
Henry frowned. He did not like that explanation. He asked, "As far as I know, you're interested in the jade pendant, too, right?"Shane was startled. He immediately understood that Henry did not believe in him. He nodded and said, "Of course. I've seen the jade pendant but found nothing in it after studying it for some time."So, it will be meaningless to me even if you give it to me now."After he spoke, Shane glanced at Martha, who was still unconscious. Her eyelashes moved a little. He said, "I understand you probably don't trust me."Henry did not refute it. He might not be so doubtful if not because of Charlie's incident earlier. However, how could he trust others easily after all that had happened?"Well, there's no harm in telling you more. There's a land of inheritance in Aurelia City, which may help you comprehend your cultivation and strengthen your power significantly."I believe Lucifer and the others already know of your location. You can only deter them if you can b
'What's going on?'Henry's expression changed drastically because the power was too terrifying. It would be fine if it were happening to him. How would an ordinary woman like Lydia be able to stand the power?"What's wrong with me?" Lydia's face was blushing, not in a good way. She looked as if she was on fire.Her body shook crazily, and even her lips were trembling uncontrollably. That showed how painful she was feeling."Don't worry; it will be fine in a moment." Henry comforted her and activated his energy immediately to send gentle vital energy into Lydia's body to help her dissolve the power in her body.Even though what Henry did was working, it was not too effective.Suddenly, Martha got up and walked in front of the two of them. She looked at Lydia and noticed a faint mark on her forehead.Shocked, she asked, "Is that the awakening of the Phoenix Bloodline?"Martha even forgot to ask Henry if he had killed her master. Perhaps it was because she saw Henry was also in a
Henry Truman woke up early in the morning.He felt a soft touch in his right hand and subconsciously pinched it. The feeling of the touch made him feel satisfied.When he turned, he saw a woman with a beautiful face lying next to him."Ah..."Lydia Miller was startled awake by the pinch and realized she was naked.She screamed and pushed Henry away.She yanked the sheets with one hand while slamming him with a pillow with the other."You jerk! Pervert! What have you done to me?!""Well, it seems like we have done everything.""Do you know no shame?" Lydia was embarrassed and angry."That’s not true. You were the one who took the initiative last night." Henry defended himself."Nonsense! It was—"Lydia wanted to argue, but she couldn't finish her sentence as the previous night's events flashed through her mind.She was drugged while attempting to collect a large amount of debt, and she only managed to escape when she found an opportunity to use the restroom.Henry had just
"This is the Everising Platinum Card, with a credit limit of 150 million dollars. You can use it at any Hodbridge store belonging to the Everising Chamber of Commerce."Also, since you've just arrived, you probably need a place to stay. Here's the key card to the villa in Paradise One. Please accept it.""That's very generous of you. Tell me what you want." Henry's gaze was profound, as if he saw through everything."My daughter, Chansey Ford, has frequently experienced chills throughout her body since six months ago. We've seen numerous renowned doctors, but none has a cure. I am humbly asking for your help," Jeffery said."Not an issue. I'll take care of it when I am free tomorrow.""That's great! Thank you, Master!" Jeffery was excited.After enquiring from various sources, he discovered that the newly appointed young master was actually the elusive divine doctor he had been looking for.He could not believe the divine doctor was such a young man, and he was the Master of Gol
"Henry, I have been waiting for you since the old divine doctor called, and you have finally arrived today. Come in. The door is open!"John Miller went to the door to greet Henry because he had not seen him in a while.Henry immediately smiled when he saw him and said, "Grandpa Miller!""Have you two met?" John looked at his granddaughter.Lydia looked awkward."We met during the day," Henry said."Well, that's quite a coincidence. Perhaps it's destined.""Today is a good day to get married. You can go do that after lunch." John laughed heartily.He thought highly of the old divine doctor's medical skills. His students should be just as good.Henry was stunned momentarily, finally realizing that the gorgeous lady was his fiancée, Lydia Miller.He could not help but keep observing her with his eyes, focusing on specific areas.Lydia had also noticed Henry's gaze, which reminded her of the incident from the night before. She felt even more embarrassed.Not only did he take a
"Stop dreaming. I would rather be in love with a pig than with you!" Lydia said angrily.'I didn't even like any of the outstanding young men pursuing me. Why would I like you?'"Lydia!"Meanwhile, an eye-catching woman approached them.She was gorgeous, and dressed up provocatively.Her hot pants barely covered her hips, matched with a tight crop top that perfectly showcased her body.She glanced at Henry casually.'Dresses plainly but looks decent. But what does a bumpkin from the mountains like him have to match with Lydia? He's aiming for the moon.'"I'm here." Lydia greeted her, then turned toward Henry. "This is my best friend, Sarah.""Hello!" Henry extended his hand and smiled.Sarah did not even spare him a glance and grabbed Lydia's hand instead and said, "Let's go. Lewis and the others are waiting for us."Lydia nodded and invited Henry with her. "You can come with us!"Sarah was there to embarrass Henry so that he would eventually give up.They got into Lydia's
The crowd was stunned momentarily, then burst into laughter."This is hilarious! How can a bumpkin like you brag so much?"Henry could not be bothered with their mockery of him. He picked up a sword and asked, "Are we doing this?"Lewis was confused. "Don't you want to wear protective gear?""No need.""Fine, don't blame me if you get hurt." Lewis got annoyed and sneered.He even thought of crippling Henry."Stop talking." Henry frowned.Everyone was speechless, and Lewis was getting mad.'From his posture, I can see that he is a beginner. Yet, he is so arrogant. He must be looking for trouble.'Lydia felt a bit nervous for Henry.She despised Henry and wished to rid herself of him. However, she did not want to get him into serious trouble."Relax, Lydia. Lewis knows what he's doing. Nothing will happen," Sarah said.Lydia nodded in agreement.Meanwhile, Lewis had taken a step forward, thrusting his sword rapidly."How handsome is he? His movements are sharp, and there a
