Henry nodded when he heard that. He hugged Lydia and muttered, "Today, you and I shall live and die as husband and wife. We'll never be alone!"Lydia was emotional when she heard that. Since their divorce, that was the first time Henry used the words husband and wife to describe their relationship.However, they still had not remarried."Such a loving but pitiful couple. It's a pity you'll die today," Lucifer sneered.Verdantia, a country led by Westin, had been using military technology to suppress Aurelia. As Verdantia's Worship Master, Lucifer would not allow any strong master to exist in Aurelia.So, Lydia and Henry must die."That's right! You'll die today. Now, let me end your lives." Kevin was furious.How could he let the young couple go?"Come on, then," Lydia said coldly.Those people had harmed Henry. She immediately activated the Phoenix Heart Technique. The mighty phoenix's power flowed through her entire body.A powerful aura was revealed in an instant. The phoe
The most innocent party was the man who blocked Henry and betrayed Shane. He had no time to avoid the force. He groaned miserably and retreated.He would have died if he had not retreated quickly.Damn it. Those attacks were too terrifying. Henry's strength, at that moment, might even be stronger than Kevin's.Kevin felt horrified as he faced their forces. He groaned several times as he retreated. His body was severely injured.Damn it.The couple's strength was so terrifying that he was injured severely. With the injuries he sustained, it would take him at least several months of recovery if he did not have any magical pills.Lucifer could have helped Kevin, but he deliberately retreated to avoid doing that. A sinister glint flashed in his eyes when he saw Kevin's worsened injuries.If it were necessary, he would kill Kevin too. That would eliminate two main threats at the same time.Kevin was in terrible shape. However, Henry and Lydia did not fare any better. They were injur
After his warning, Jorge no longer hesitated. He turned around and fled. He could not care about Lucifer.Meanwhile, Lucifer's face changed drastically when he heard Jorge's words."Damn it!" he cursed and instantly turned around, preparing to leave.Shane and Kevin were dead, and Islehaven was unimportant to him. He could return and deal with that once his strength was restored.At the same time, Manish's anxiety increased. He glanced at Frederick, signaling a clear message—it was the perfect timing to act; it was then or never.However, Frederick remained silent, staring intently at the screen, waiting. He was waiting for Shane's signal. More importantly, he did not want to sacrifice Henry.Manish was worried. Even though the missile launch site was close, given the strength of those powerhouses, it was already too late to act.At that moment, Henry, filled with rage, swung his sword toward Lucifer. The terrifying sword energy seemed to slice through space itself. The powerful
Without a healing elixir, Lucifer might need at least a few months to recover fully.Jorge shared the same thoughts as Lucifer. The two quickly fled together when he saw Lucifer make his escape.Meanwhile, Manish realized their opportunity had gone; even if they were to launch the missile, it would not have mattered. He could only give up and waited with Albus.Even though Henry had unleashed a terrifying final strike, it was clear that he had used a forbidden technique, pushing himself far beyond his limits. After that strike, Henry felt an overwhelming emptiness and weakness in his body, barely able to stand.He staggered, then noticed Lydia. Her face was pale, and her body was stained with blood. She looked gravely injured.Henry's heart sank. He hurried over and embraced her.Lydia looked pained, and blood dripped from her mouth. She muttered weakly, "Henry, am I—am I going to die?""No, absolutely not. I'll heal you right now," Henry replied. He desperately tried to channel
When Shane heard Henry's scream, he was regretful. He could not believe what was happening, and he blamed himself. Just as he was lost in those thoughts, he noticed something changing in Henry.A look of shock crossed his face."Is that..."The Dragon Bloodline?"Henry could feel it, too—an overwhelming surge of terrifying energy coursed through his body. Even his tough body could not withstand the pain. He feared that his newfound power might harm Lydia, so he carefully set her down and stepped back, focusing on guiding the energy within him.Despite Lydia's life gradually fading, Henry refused to give up. He was determined to save her, even as he absorbed the power of his bloodline while keeping his spiritual senses locked on her condition. However, her condition seemed to get more and more chaotic.Shane, still in shock, watched the scene unfold. The Dragon Bloodline he had casually mentioned was real and was fully awakened within Henry.Shane could not believe it. Yet, he wa
Henry's newfound power was overwhelming. He felt as though he could command the Energy of Heaven and Earth at will. Thunder and lightning crackled within his palm, radiating terror without a single ounce of energy leaking out."He—he must be at the intermediate stage of Principles comprehension!" Shane was deeply shocked. Henry had just begun to comprehend the Principle of Heaven and Earth, yet his strength was already advancing at a terrifying pace, approaching Shane's.Albus and the others felt a powerful pressure, almost as if they were about to kneel before Henry.Henry quickly regained control, suppressing his power, and hurried over to Lydia. He scanned her body by using his mental strength, feeling a mix of heartache and relief.He then turned to Albus and bowed with gratitude. "Thank you, Master. I owe this to you.""Don't mention it. If anyone deserves gratitude, it's Master Aurey," Albus replied with a wry smile. He then explained the situation with the missile and how F
Then, Henry asked, "How big is the gap between us?"He would never back down if there were a threat to Aurelia, no matter the danger.Shane responded thoughtfully, "You've reached the mid-stage of Principles comprehension while he's entered the advanced stage. He's still far stronger."As he held Lydia, Henry asked, "How many stages are there?""I'm not entirely sure," Shane said."But according to the legends, there's also the higher-advanced stage. Finally, there's the peak stage. That's the ultimate power in our world."Henry nodded, realizing that the gap was smaller than he had thought. He could feel that he was close to advancing to the next stage.His mind then turned to the man who had stopped him earlier. He asked, "Who was the man who blocked us and ruined our plan?"Shane's face twisted bitterly. "He's my cousin, but don't worry, he won't live for long."Henry nodded, no longer interested. All that mattered to him was Lucifer, the only real threat. Even Jorge no lo
Henry was unaware of the passing time as he was completely immersed in his cultivation. He continuously comprehended the Principles of Heaven and Earth. Three days and nights slipped by.Lydia opened her eyes, bewildered by her recovery. She could not believe she was fully healed. She thought she had died.She turned to see Henry sitting nearby, his body bathed in a radiant light, resembling a heavenly figure.Lydia stood up, astonished to realize she was completely healed. She was alive, and Henry had saved her. She gazed at Henry soft, full of affection.Another twelve days had passed after Lydia woke up. She had nothing to do during that time. She did not need food in her cultivation state, so she spent the time refining her own abilities. Even though she was concerned about Henry's prolonged cultivation, sensing his ever-increasing power reassured her.Finally, Henry opened his eyes. His gaze was profound, as if it contained the unparalleled principles itself. His mere glance
At that point, everything there was over.After everyone dispersed, Shane laughed as he stepped forward. "Henry, you gave me a big surprise this time."I thought you'd need at least five years to catch up to them. I didn't expect you to have achieved such strength. This is entirely beyond my imagination."May I ask what level of strength you are at now?"Shane was curious.Henry shrugged helplessly and said, "I don't know it. There's no one to compare with."I only know that if I use my full strength, I can destroy a city with one single wave of my sword."Everyone was utterly stunned, and they murmured helplessly, "Pervert!"Shane was speechless. He shook his head. "Young man, you really amazed me. By the way, when are you getting engaged? Don't delay for too long; I don't have much time left."He was delighted with Henry and was hoping to be able to attend their wedding.Henry smiled and said, "Elder Master Drayson, have you forgotten what I said yesterday? I'll help you re
Henry's domineering words made the people of Aurelia excited.They were so enthusiastic that they had to express their excitement.However, they were confused when Henry ordered them to launch the missiles.What did Henry mean? Why did Henry order the launching of the missiles? Everyone was curious.Everyone else was dumbfounded, too. What order was that?Everyone had doubts in their mind.At the same time, the person at the missile base was sweating profusely. He had to execute the order under any circumstances, and he was so nervous that he could not help but reconfirm the order again.Frederick nodded. He had looked into the matter personally to ensure everything was in place without error.If he had not seen Henry's extraordinary strength with his own eyes, he would not have believed that Henry had planned everything. He had even met with Frederick earlier in the morning and made the request.Henry wanted to show how powerful he was in deterring anyone from creating unnece
There were words of praise, excitement, and admiration in Aurelia.In their opinion, Henry was Aurelia's protector.In other places, people were amazed and fearful of Henry's strength.Henry did not care about that. He remembered that there were many troublemakers earlier.In a deep voice, he said, "I heard that over these past few days, many looked down on Aurelia's battling skills because no one was here to deal with them."In that case, I'll let them see how powerful Aurelia's battling skills are. There's no need to trouble those masters who are in seclusion. Those present today can do the same job."Step forward, Jensen."Jensen was stunned. When he heard Henry's order, he quickly gathered his thoughts. He stepped forward and said respectfully, "Yes, Mr. Truman."Jensen was a powerful master trained by Henry. His terrifying aura was clearly displayed at that moment.In an instant, the whole world could feel his strong force. The powerful force gathered in the air made ever
Henry waved his right hand. Jorge flew out of the platform and landed near the few Islehaveners beside their ambassador.Henry had sent Jorge back to them.Next, it would be Lucifer's turn.The audience looked at Henry with admiration and were shocked.Shane and the others who supported Henry were really excited. Earlier, they had thought Aurelia would face a big crisis. They did not expect Henry to solve the matter so easily.Although Lucifer had yet to make a move, it was impossible for Lucifer to defeat Henry so easily."Lucifer, you're up," Henry said.Everyone's heart trembled.The crowd was familiar with Lucifer. He became famous after the battle the day before.It was obvious that Lucifer was much stronger than Jorge. Most importantly, he represented the powerful Westin.Lucifer snorted coldly. He stepped forward and spread his fourteen wings. He looked overpowering and extremely terrifying.The huge pressure created by the wings made everyone feel breathless.Howeve
Jorge's expression looked horrible. He had already taken the first step. Everything would go in vain if he were to give up.So, he got up, knelt in front of Henry again, and shouted, "I'm sorry, I was wrong!"Slap, slap!Another few heavy slaps on him.Jorge was utterly stunned; he was also shocked and angry."Your voice is too loud. It's disturbing," Henry said.At that moment, any fool would know Henry did it intentionally. He deliberately played tricks on Jorge.That made the Islehaveners feel even more ashamed.An ambassador of Islehaven who was watching the battle stepped forward and said, "Stop! Stop! You're destroying—""Get lost," Henry snorted coldly and waved his right hand.Even though the ambassador was a few hundred meters away, he immediately felt a massive pain in his chest. He flew backward about ten meters away and fainted as he landed on the ground.He was then dragged away.Everyone was shocked.Jorge's expression looked extremely ugly. The pain on his c
Henry's voice contained powerful mental pressure. He controlled it so well that it only targeted Jorge."No!" Jorge gritted his teeth and roared. The power around him gathered crazily, forming a huge and terrifying force he was trying to resist.Everyone was shocked when they saw that.A huge tornado formed above Jorge's head, and a powerful force burst out crazily. Once again, he displayed his amazing and terrifying strength.The overwhelming pressure shocked everyone.Everyone in the country saw that. They were extremely excited. "I knew it. Jorge was only fooling with him. He's showing his real strength now.""That's right. He's finally fighting back. He must teach that guy a cruel lesson."They were all excited. However, their excitement disappeared the next moment, and their expression looked horrible.At that moment, Henry, with a disdainful look, raised his right hand and pressed on the tornado lightly.The terrifying force on Jorge dissipated completely in an instant.
"He's my idol, too!""Mine, too.""Stop pretending. Weren't you arrogant and proud earlier? Keep it going."At that moment, the people of Aurelia cheered, both online and those who were there. Everyone who knew Henry and was close to him was also extremely excited.In contrast, the faces of the people of Islehaven looked ugly; they could not believe what they had seen.They saw Jorge as powerful as God. How could he be crushed? He was even slapped in public, equivalent to a slap on everyone's face. They were furious."Cheater! He must be cheating!""That is a conspiracy. It must be a conspiracy!""Jorge, did you hold back? You wanted them to be happy first and then would beat them out of their asses later?""Get up! Show them how powerful the people of Islehaven are."Similarly, the reaction of the people from the Westin countries was not good either. Everyone was shocked.Some were amazed at Henry's power.Of course, many other countries expressed their support for Aurelia
Jorge frowned when Henry walked up to the platform. He realized he did not manage to sense Henry's strength and power at all.There were only two possibilities. The first was that Henry was so much stronger than himself that Jorge could not sense his strength. Jorge had already managed to sense Shane and Lucifer's strength.Henry could not be much stronger than the two of them.The other possibility was that Henry had learned a secret technique to conceal his strength.If Jorge did not guess wrongly, it should be the latter.'Trying to scare me with that hideous trick?'Jorge sneered and said disdainfully, "Henry, you coward. Are you finally willing to come forward now? I thought you were going to stay hidden forever."Henry smiled, but his smile was a little cold. He said, "Hide? Since when do I need to hide? About half a month ago, you and your master, Lucifer, had to flee from Aurelia. Have you forgotten about that?""Nonsense!"Jorge was furious when he heard that. First,
"I do hope there are stronger masters today; at least let me warm up a little. Otherwise, it'll be really boring for me."Also, I won't be holding back today. Life and death are not considerations once we're on the platform. I'd like to see if anyone in Aurelia isn't afraid of death."As soon as he said that, many people commented again. Many people were thinking about Henry, whom Jorge had mentioned, but Henry had yet to appear.Many Aurelian masters were furious when they heard Jorge's words and were about to rush to the platform.Flynn stepped forward and was about to go up onto the platform.However, Henry took the lead and went to the platform.Manish, standing next to him, was stunned for a moment. He was the strongest master among the several Worship Masters. Manish was stronger than Albus, but he did not stop Henry.Albus specifically instructed him to arrange for Flynn to join the fight first. Even though he would not be able to defeat Jorge, at least he could exhaust t
