Sir Holt said earnestly, "The timing isn't right. If they came now, their cultivation would rapidly deteriorate, and they would become ordinary people within half a day."So they're waiting. Our information indicates that the spiritual energy on earth is recovering and should reach the desired concentration in about three years."After Sir Holt went into the side hall, Chad looked at the photo of the bloodied message on his phone.[I saw Master!]Full of doubt, Chad looked at the sky and muttered, "Sheldon, how do you know who you saw was Master?"Suddenly, the process of Sheldon's murder flashed through Chad's mind.First, someone used the Ascension Thirteen Needles on Sheldon from behind. At that point, Sheldon would have shown signs of ascension. After all, Sheldon was also at the Visualization Stage. Being ambushed with that needle technique would force him to try to ascend.Then the attacker restrained him, pinned him to the ground, and then opened his spine to extract his
"No, they all have the surname Keatman!"Sir Holt's words shocked Chad."Keatman? Part of the Severe Therapeutics school?"Sir Holt was shocked. "Descendants of the ancestor of Hacniane medicine?"Chad nodded. "Yes! My master, Rowan, is from the Keating branch of that lineage. Historically, the Keating lineage has branched out several times, and one branch changed their surname to Keatman."Chad finally understood why those people knew the Geronimo Thirteen Needles and even the rare Ascension Thirteen Needles. The Keatman branch must have fully inherited all their teachings.Chad looked forward to meeting that person.Sir Holt then said, "The memorial service will be held the day after tomorrow. We'll interrogate this person after the service."Afterward, Sir Holt arranged for someone to take Chad back to his hotel.A quiet night went by.In the morning at Bloomington Airport.Matilda had arrived early.She had boarded the plane, guided by a group dressed in suits.After t
"I know you're surprised. I had no choice. After your parents went missing in the firmament, I wanted to keep you by my side."But the situation was dire, and I feared I couldn't protect you, so I entrusted you to Logan Sachs."Matilda was stunned into silence; that was entirely unexpected for her."Seeing you reminds me of your mother. You and your aunt look very much alike, almost as if you can be twins."Matilda realized she did resemble Naomi, to the point where people might believe they were twins if they saw them on the street.Naomi said, "By the way, I met your husband yesterday. He seems like a good guy.""My husband?"Matilda, already dazed, was first taken aback by Naomi's words and then realized."Chad? He's here too?"Zayan said, "Yes! He's Sheldon's senior brother and has close ties with Sir Holt and Sir Lawson."That revelation left Matilda feeling faint. It was hard to believe that Chad, whom she had considered a failure, was close with Sir Holt and Sir Lawson
Spencer Sachs, a Cabinet dignitary and a God of War, was 65 years old and had only one arm."Where's my granddaughter?""You fool! Just look around and see who looks like your granddaughter!"Zayan walked into the courtyard, loudly calling out but with a satisfied smile on his face.Spencer quickly fixed his gaze on Matilda, trembling with excitement."She looks just like her!""Enough about that. What about your son, Logan? He's going to the firmament. What do you plan to do?"Zayan stepped in front of Matilda, standing face-to-face with Spencer.Spencer scratched his head. "That kid has been rebellious since childhood. I can't stop him. Besides, I'm going up there after the memorial service myself…"Spencer ended with a proud grin.The courtyard fell silent.After a long pause, Zayan asked in shock, "Is it really that severe?"Spencer glanced at the sky. "It's worse than expected. It all depends on the situation in the coming days."Zayan immediately sensed the gravity o
Just then, a special agent burst in, whispered something in Zayan's ear, and left.Zayan glanced at Matilda and Chad. "It seems we won't be having this meal after all!"A luxurious car arrived at the entrance of the courtyard. Zayan quickly got into the car and left.Naomi suddenly became cheerful when her father left and excitedly shouted, "Yay! Dad's finally gone!"Then she grabbed Matilda and Chad and said, "Come on! I'll take you around Kennington and treat you to a nice meal!"Matilda, already lacking appetite, reluctantly agreed since Naomi was the elder. However, she did not want to be with Chad. She tugged Naomi's hand and said, "Aunt Naomi, let's go out, but leave this guy behind.""No way!" Naomi said with a mysterious smile. "I promised Dad I'd get you two to reconcile! Let's go to the Owl Tavern for a meal, and then I'll take you to Polden Street in the afternoon."Naomi, with her carefree personality, put one arm around Matilda's waist and the other around Chad's
Before Matilda could say anything, Chad coldly interjected, "Get lost!"Both Matilda and Chad were not in the mood for dining. When Naomi left, they were inclined to go, too!Harvey, caught off guard by the rejection, shot a glare at Chad and cursed, "Damn it! I'm just trying to hit on a beautiful girl. Why are you interfering?"Harvey reached out to slap Chad, but the latter blocked his hand.As he looked at his blocked hand, Harvey arrogantly declared, "I've never missed a beat when it comes to hitting people in Kennington."Chad, however, did not even glance at him. He asked Matilda, "Are we leaving or not?"Matilda was infuriated by Chad's comment. "In a situation like this, do you think we can just leave?"Harvey sneered from the side, "You disrespected me and still wanted to leave? Do you even know who I am?"Chad nonchalantly replied, "I don't care whose bastard you are."No one dared to speak to Harvey like that!"What did you say? Say that again! I'll kill you!" Harv
Chad tidied his clothes, made an inviting gesture, and pulled Matilda along as they headed out. Seeing this, everyone around could not help but shiver.Anyone who needed special agents to escort them must be someone important. Even Harvey, usually arrogant and domineering, realized he might have provoked someone he should not have.As Chad passed by Harvey, he looked at him with a smile and said, "I've often heard Zaiden Cooper mention his two grandsons. Indeed, the reputation doesn't do you justice."Harvey was stunned that Chad knew he was Zaiden Cooper's grandson. When he tried to catch up, he was even more shocked that Chad was picked up by an Aston Martin Victor!It was well-known that only people with extraordinary status could be escorted in such a car. Just as Chad was about to enter the vehicle, Flynn and Naomi returned."Hey, why are you coming out? Aren't you going to eat?" Flynn parked his motorcycle, glanced at the luxurious car, and looked at Chad in surprise.Chad
Joe had visited Kennington several times but had never received such a high-level reception. Although the Coaster was just a small bus, it was nicknamed the leader's vehicle, which was highly prestigious.Ordinary people could not even imagine riding in it, so Joe was excited. At that moment, Joe completely relaxed and decided to follow Camden closely. "Master, where are we going?" he asked.Camden looked out the window and said, "We must be going to Amity Gate."Amity Gate, also known as the Peacemaking Gate, was where the cabinet office was located and symbolized the nation of Hacniane.Hector casually remarked, "It's just the Cabinet. As a Mystic representative, I've been here often."Camden smiled and said, "Same here. I used to represent Celestial Mountains and frequently came to Amity Gate."Hector said, "Fifty years ago, during the Mystic Hexa Pirates incident, that was the first time the Cabinet held a meeting for the Mystic representatives."Camden said, "Yes, it was al
