Chad asked, puzzled, "Watching me? How much is being offered for me to attract so many people?"Grayson's expression became even more peculiar when he answered Chad's question. "For laying hands on you without causing harm—1.5 million. Injuring you but leaving you alive—15 million. Severe injuries—30 million. "Killing you and leaving no corpse behind—60 million. Killing you and leaving some limbs behind—75 million. Killing you and producing your whole body—150 million.""Damn!" Chad was dumbfounded. He knew there was a bounty on his head, but he did not expect it to be divided into so many tiers.Grayson sighed and patted Chad's shoulder, noticing his confusion. "Do you understand now?"Chad scratched his head and said, "Is my life worth that much?""It's not about the money," Grayson said solemnly. "They understand how difficult it is to kill you, so they're using this method to expose you. The more attention you attract, the more trouble you'll get. Do you understand now?"Ch
"Dr. Jennings, I'm Jasmine, and I'm 170 centimeters tall...""Dr. Jennings, I'm Scarlett, and I'm 168 centimeters tall...""Dr. Jennings, my name is Cheryl, and I'm 165 centimeters tall..."After that, the women took off their nightgowns and freely displayed their bodies, introducing themselves to Chad one by one.Chad considered himself a decent man and desperately wanted to yell that it was enough.However, he swallowed the words because he was a man!How could a man not appreciate the scene in front of him? If he did not like it, he was not a man!This scene, which could only appear in so-called educational films, was Chad's first experience of its kind!Half an hour later, everyone had finished showcasing themselves. Jasmine asked, "Dr. Jennings, which of us do you prefer? You can pick anyone!"Chad was momentarily dazed. He forced himself to slow his rapid breathing and finally said, "I choose you!"Jasmine was surprised to hear that. The others were more feminine, matur
After all, one of the Mystics' early legends involved an emperor ascending into a dragon.Many historians believed that it was the day the emperor died amid thunder and lightning. The emperor must have been like him—a Mystic who had fused with an immortal!Miss Sixth explained to Chad how the world's first transformed demon was born. It was the legend of a fox spirit whom an emperor adored.According to the legend, the emperor was possessed by a fox, just as Miss Sixth claimed.However, at the end of the story, Miss Sixth mentioned something that made Chad think of Ayo Kato. "After the dynasty fell, the fox that possessed the emperor fled to what is now known as Saffronesia. In Saffronesia, the fox practiced for a thousand years before daring to use her true name—"Before Miss Sixth could finish, Chad said, "Ayo Kato, right?"Miss Sixth smiled. "Yes, that's her, the greatest demon in Saffronesia!"Chad reasoned that since the Mystic Archive had formed, it could not simply disapp
"Master, I'm innocent! I've known the Williams family for decades and never done anything to harm them—"Meryl wanted to respond, but as Marshawn's grip tightened, her voice abruptly stopped.Marshawn grinned maliciously as he threw Meryl to the ground. "Seems like you've forgotten what I do?"Meryl looked at him, terrified, only to hear Marshawn say, "You had the doctors kill Luke, and you instigated Linda to murder Terry. I'm aware of all of this."Meryl looked at him with horror. "That's impossible! How did you know?"Marshawn's face darkened. "I know everything in Hacniane. I was the Special Bureau's first director, and my former subordinates are spread across Hacniane. Whatever I want to know, someone provides me with the most accurate information."That revelation terrified Meryl. She was fully aware of Marshawn's previous actions.She assumed Marshawn had grown old.Marshawn had struggled to manage the Williams family's finances, particularly in recent years. Terry handl
Jennifer initially did not believe it, but when the immortal crown appeared above Marshawn's head, she had to believe him."I was wrong! Please spare me. I'll leave the Williams family and never return to Hacniane for the rest of my life!"Jennifer was terrified, so she knelt in front of Marshawn.How could such a cunning old woman give up so easily?Marshawn was no fool, either. With a wave of his hand and a crackling sound, he sent Jennifer flying with a slap.Swoosh!Three short arrows popped out of Jennifer's back and flew onto the roof.The arrows were so powerful that they pierced the steel-reinforced concrete roof before disappearing into the sky."I've said everything I needed to say. I'll send you on your way!"Just as Marshawn was about to finish Jennifer off, a dark figure appeared and saved her.Then, a woman said, "You can't kill her, Grandpa!"Marshawn's face changed. "It's you, girl? Are you here for revenge?"However, the woman said, "I volunteered for the m
Marilyn refused to accept that fact because the person saying those words was Marshawn!Calling him Grandpa was simply a recognition of Marshawn's seniority, not an expression of respect.Marilyn calmed down. "Can I take Madam Jade's body with me?"Marshawn released his grip. "Certainly. It'll save me the trouble of dealing with it myself. The Tibetan mastiffs at home just ate."That statement would send shivers down one's spine, particularly Marilyn, who shuddered even harder.It was difficult to imagine how ruthless Marshawn could be. Could one trust his words?Marilyn asked one final question before lifting Jennifer's body and leaving."Why did you leave the Special Bureau back then?"Marshawn remained silent for a long time before saying, "I was getting old, and I didn't have that kind of energy anymore."Marilyn did not press further and turned to leave with the body after receiving a rather trite response.Who was Marshawn? A master of both disciplines, an earthbound im
Meanwhile, dozens of beautiful women emerged from the Hall of Herbs in Bloomington's Temple Road.After they came out, they dispersed in different directions.They took various modes of transportation to Haron City before nightfall.Willow and Jasmine rented a car to get on the road together.As for Chad, he headed to the air raid shelter to meet up with Lord Fifth, deciding to take the underground passages.That was the first time Chad actively displayed his complete form after fusing with Miss Sixth.Chad's entire body was covered in black dragon scales. His height increased to two meters, and two dragon horns sprouted from his head.Lord Fifth transformed into a white dragon and led the way, while Chad followed closely behind, relying on his legs.Along the way, Chad, having merged with Miss Sixth, had the vision of a dragon.He saw the underground world, filled with enormous pythons that left him in awe. Lord Fifth led the way, explaining as they encountered various sights
"Marilyn!"Chad was shocked and could not suppress his anger. An overwhelming aura emanated on him, causing the earth along the path to tremble and fall, even startling Lord Second."Strange boy, are you related to that Marilyn girl?""Yes! She's my sister!"Chad confirmed, looking around and wanting to leave immediately. He could not wait and did not want Marilyn in danger.Lord Second's smile was human-like. "No rush. You have seven days to save her.""What do you mean by that?" Chad asked in a puzzled manner.Hiss…A multitude of small snakes appeared, densely covering the area.Lord Second smiled and said, "My descendants are spread throughout every corner of Haron City. They know everything that happens here. I will know even if someone accidentally drops a coin."Chad calmed down, hoping to get some information about the Williams family from Lord Second."Then do you know where my sister is being held?"However, Lord Second did not respond. His huge eyes stared at Cha
