The ancient emperor cut down Yggdrasil to obtain more Evergrow and achieve immortality.Chad recalled Samuel's statement. "Evergrow is the key to becoming immortal."That implied that once infected with Evergrow, a person's body would undergo a transformative change, granting near-immortality. One could then attain an immortal body by using the three sacred trees to cleanse the Evergrow from their system.The three sacred trees were identified as Yggdrasil, Ashraddine, and Irminsul. Marshawn's diary mentioned that these three ancient sacred trees were paths to the Zenith, each leading to a different celestial realm."Nonsense!" Chad muttered as he closed the diary, organizing the clues in his mind.Marshawn's diary and Samuel's words claimed that Snow, after being kidnapped, was sent to the firmament and successfully entered the celestial realm.Initially, Chad did not believe it, but with both sources corroborating the story, he could not ignore it. If true, Marilyn was not Chad
Ronan chuckled lightly. "Of course, I hope you can make it in time. Otherwise, everything will be in vain!"Sadie said, "Maybe, by the time you get there, our great-uncle will already be cured. You should know that Dark Phoenix has recently healed many prominent figures; her medical skills are remarkable."Chad turned to Willow. "My phone is broken. Please give me your phone and buy a new one when you can. I'll pay you back when I return."Willow nodded. "Yes, Dr. Jennings. I can buy a new one myself; you don't need to worry about the money."Chad took Willow's phone and got into a Mercedes Sprinter. Ronan and Sadie did not accompany him.Once inside the vehicle, Chad inserted his SIM card into the phone and saw dozens of missed calls and messages, mostly from Matilda and Youlee. Ignoring them, he put the phone away and closed his eyes to rest.Chad eagerly anticipated meeting Dark Phoenix, hoping it would be their most peaceful encounter.That was his main reason for agreeing t
The driver's tattoo was a black fox head, indicating that the driver had a guardian immortal and was a shaman.The black fox was the most powerful among the Fox family spirits in the northeastern shamanic system. The black fox guarded the household while the white fox served the shaman. The Fox family's roles were divided very specifically.After a two-hour drive, the car exited the highway at an off-ramp. Chad saw the sign indicating they were in Orcreek, a small town adjacent to Bloomington.That puzzled Chad. After seeing Micah in Jeems County, that esteemed elder, Tenan, was also in such a small town.Did those former high-ranking officials choose to retire in such places?The car soon entered a narrow road flanked by endless wheat fields. After about 20 minutes, they arrived at an estate.Once out of the car, Ronan also arrived shortly after."Dr. Jennings, please come in!" Ronan said with a smile, leading the way into the courtyard.Upon entering, Chad felt like he had en
Chad stepped out of the bedroom and saw an old man and a young man standing outside.Ronan sneered disdainfully, "Finnley, aren't you doing well in Saffronesia? Why are you back?"Finnley smiled humbly and adjusted his glasses. "Great-uncle is seriously ill. Of course, I had to come back! Besides, I brought Dr. Mueller, a great medical god from Saffronesia. He will surely be able to cure Great-uncle!"Ronan scoffed, "Oh, really? Are you that confident?"Finnley replied proudly, "Of course, you don't know how superior Saffronesian medicine is compared to Hacniane medicine!"Jasper respectfully asked, "Excuse me, where is the patient? May I see him?"Ronan laughed derisively. "He's in the bedroom, but I must warn you, my great-uncle fought against Saffronesian soldiers in the past and has hundreds of Saffronesian lives on his hands!"That statement was not an exaggeration. The senior members of the cabinet were all veterans from that era. Tenan was one of the top generals in the c
At the lobby of Bellenuite Tower in Bloomington.Chad brought lunch for his wife, Matilda Sachs. Dressed casually, he stuck out like a sore thumb in an opulent setting.Bellenuite Group was a cosmetic brand set up by Matilda, who was exactly Chad's wife. It was worth hundreds of millions of dollars."Hey, you're here! Sign this!"A lady stood in front of Chad, blocking his way. She had fine makeup on and a voluptuous body. Her cleavage turned many heads.It was Jojo Fonsey.She went to college with Chad and Matilda. Back then, she was Matilda's best friend and now, she became her secretary.Jojo looked at Chad with contempt as she flung an agreement to him.Chad was shocked and confused by her actions. He held the agreement in his hand. "What's this?"Slowly, the smile on Chad's face disappeared.It was a divorce agreement!Chad gazed at Jojo coldly and snarled, "Jojo! This is too much!"Jojo urged impatiently, "I'm not joking. Hurry up! Ms. Sachs is waiting for me!"Taken
Finally, Chad burst out in anger and snarled."Why? All these years, I've given her everything she wanted!""Now as she files for divorce, can't I see her even just once?""Hahaha!" Jojo laughed coldheartedly."Are you kidding me? You gave everything Ms. Sachs wanted? What else can you do besides delivering lunch?""I'll be honest with you. Justin Long of Bloomington just proposed to Ms. Sachs yesterday.""See for yourself. This is the video I recorded yesterday!"Chad froze as he stared deadly at the screen of the phone in front of him in rage.In the video, a charming man was proposing to Matilda on one knee. Matilda’s parents and younger brother were there too!Jojo looked at Chad, gloating, and rubbed salt in his wound."Mr. Long's grandfather is a minister in Kennington. The Long family has an extraordinary status.""The Long family has power and Ms. Sachs is loaded with wealth. They're a perfect match! Didn't you say you can give her everything?""Is your family background that g
After signing, Chad passed the divorce agreement, together with the bank card to Jojo and left.Taken by surprise, Jojo turned to Matilda. "He didn't want the card!""I know. Whatever floats his boat! I need to take care of something. You may leave now!"Matilda said with a straight as she pressed the window shut.Immediately after, tears rolled down her cheeks.After Matilda departed, Jojo dialed Matilda's house phone number.Logan Sachs, Matilda's father picked up the phone and Jojo recounted the divorce process."Ms. Sachs offered Chad 1.4 million dollars and a villa before he agreed to the divorce!""Really? That's fantastic!""Of course! Chad's no match for Ms. Sachs. After the divorce, Ms. Sachs will find someone better. Uncle Logan, I gotta go. Bye!"After hanging up, Logan was overjoyed and he shouted out loud."Celine, John, I have great news! Matilda and Chad are divorced!"Logan patted his lap out of joy and he felt like a weight lifted off his shoulders.After
Three years ago, Rustin Hart, a provincial governor, got into an accident as he was on his way to an event in Bloomington. He was in a critical condition.Rustin's eldest son, Tori Hart was introduced to Chad and he went to see Chad in person, pleading for him to save his father.The injuries sustained by Rustin were too severe and Chad only managed to keep him alive. Rustin needed a second treatment to recover.However, the second treatment could only be done three years later!That was why the person on the phone mentioned a promise made three years ago."Are you Tori Hart?" Chad asked doubtfully."It's me. Dr. Jennings, you remembered me. Now that three years have passed, I plea for you to treat my father, Dr. Jennings."Tori said sincerely and humbly.Tori became the head of the Hart household after his father, Rustin got injured. He also inherited his father's position as a provincial governor.Tori had all the power in the palm of his hand and there he was, humbly and
