Life After Prison Chapter 272
As soon as Claude and the others left, Zachariah and several of the Ballards' elders fell silent in the room.After some time had passed, a middle-aged woman said to Zachariah, "Sir, I think Claude has a point. We need to be wary of Draco Hall!"Zachariah nodded. "Indeed, we do, but I'm afraid that we shouldn't mess with Draco Hall. If Brookbourn Mansion joins hands with underground forces like the Emerald Cloud Gang in dealing with Draco Hall, our reputation and image would be tarnished if word gets out! Moreover, Draco Hall did not commence any further action after absorbing the Cedar Gang."The middle-aged woman thought over Zachariah's words and said, "Sir, the upper-class families hand over ten percent of their income to us every year, don't they? How about we raise that by double? The councils in other cities mostly request a twenty percent contribution from the upper-class families, and this makes us seem a little too merciful.""I agree, sir! We might have a wealth of funds

"Yeah, Dad! He's a talented guy! Leave this to me. I'll find a way to make him the head of our bodyguards or something like that. We can offer him a high salary!" Sheila said with an innocent grin.Zachariah responded with a chuckle. "Hehe, you have a crush on him, don't you?"Sheila's cheeks turned red right away, but she still said coyly, "Nonsense, Dad! I just feel like making friends with him after he saved me. I think he's a really interesting person too, since he refused to accept my money after I saved him!"After saying that, Sheila frowned, turned around, and put her hands behind her back before saying confidently, "More importantly, he doesn't ogle me at all even though I'm a beautiful woman! It's the first I've ever met a man like that!"Zachariah was well aware that the precursor to falling in love with someone was showing an interest in them.He frowned, looked earnestly at Sheila, and said, "I'll admit that he looks like a very decent guy, but if you don't have a cru

It was due to Zachariah's old age—leading to his weak physical condition and waning fertility—that he doted on Sheila even more. It therefore came as a huge surprise to Sheila that her father would even consider marrying her off to a family in Riverson.Zachariah said, "Riverson is a big place, with an area that is more than twice as large as Brookbourn. The grass there is greener, and their first-tier families are even stronger than Brookbourn Mansion. Your life will forever be free of worry if you could get married to a family there." After a brief pause, he added, "And that's not considered far by most standards. Riverson is only an hour or two away from here by car, and we also have lots of properties and villas there. If you move there, you can come back to visit me any time. More importantly, our assets will be better utilized and developed if you marry there!"Sheila smiled coldly. "What do you mean by that, Dad? Are you using my marriage as a means to bring you more benefits?

The middle-aged woman nodded. "Indeed. He ruined our plan, and killing him is the right thing to do. I didn't expect Fifth Elder to fail in doing so!""Let me go this time," said a bald man. Standing at a height of six feet, his arms looked like dragons because of his bulging arm muscles and he had a rather gruff voice as he spoke."Since you're a level seven grandmaster, I believe that you won't face too big of a problem if you went, Fourth Elder!" Tharran looked at the bald man and felt that he was a good candidate indeed. After some more thought, he said to the bald man, "However, I think it's better for you to bring a few grandmaster-level protectors with you as well!"The bald man nodded. "Sure. There's strength in numbers, and our opponent will have to divide his attention when fighting. This will be a big advantage for us! I'll choose five of our guardians to join me, and I, Janvar Runge, will be the one to decapitate Severin's head!""It's settled then. The expenses you inc

"I'm sorry, honey. A big chunk of the responsibility falls on me for what happened that night, because I slept with you knowing that I might be apprehended the next day after smashing the bottle over Easton's head. I didn't think you'd pregnant after that, and I never thought that it'd bring you so much pain and suffering!" Severin held Diane's hand, and said sincerely, "Don't worry. I'll try my best to make it up to you!"Diane smiled and said, "I still hated you when you were released, but everything that happened in the past few days has shown me that you're a good person, while Lucy and Easton are anything but. Perhaps this is what they call fate."Severin digested her words and asked again, "Do you still blame me now?"Diane shook her head. "I don't blame you anymore, because you've proven yourself as a good father and a good husband. I can see that you're a capable and responsible man instead of a useless good-for-nothing. I'm very satisfied with that!" After saying that, Dian
Life After Prison Chapter 277
"Alright, it's getting late. We should go to sleep!" Diane lowered her head shyly and added as an afterthought, "I'm beginning to like you more and more now, and you have no idea how scared I was when I saw those assassins attacking you today. I was afraid something would happen to you, and that I'd lose you!"Severin felt even happier to hear that and could not help but take the opportunity to say to Diane, "How about I stay by your side tonight, then?"Diane immediately rolled her eyes at Severin. "What's on your mind, huh? Do you want to get it on with me after knowing that I like you?""No, it's not like that at all! Why would I have such lewd ideas? I'm not a pervert!" Severin said embarrassingly. "Hmph, all men are liars. How am I to know if you're a pervert or not?" Diane snorted coldly and withdrew her hand.Seeing as there was no chance for him that night, Severin stood up in disappointment and walked toward the door. "It looks like I'll have to sleep alone in an empty r
Life After Prison Chapter 278
Severin knew that it would be unwise to rush things, especially since he was dealing with a cold and generally reserved woman like Diane.Before long, the two of them were lying on the bed, and Diane felt so nervous that she deliberately turned to sleep on her side so her back was facing Severin.When Severin saw her movement, he could not help but say, "Honey, can I hug you from behind while we sleep?""Okay," Diane replied softly, but she became increasingly nervous deep down.Soon, Severin's hand stretched out from behind to hug her waist. His firm chest was placed against her back, and her heart beat a lot faster than before. All sorts of wild thoughts began racing through her mind. The two of them spooned each other to sleep and soon drifted into a slumber.…The next morning, Selene went to Diane's room after freshening up, opened the door, and went in."Whoa! Dad's sleeping with Mom too! Ehehe!" She could not help but cover her mouth and giggle when she noticed the way he

By the time Severin changed his clothes and went downstairs, Selene had already eaten and was playing in the yard. Judith and Maurice had heard Selene shouting earlier, so they both exchanged glances and had a knowing smile when they saw Severin come down.Maurice said to Severin, "I've passed my first course of driving class, and I'm starting the second course tomorrow. I heard that automatic transmission is easier, so I enrolled in the automatic transmission class. Once I've passed, I can drive the Chevy out and bring your mother out on a road trip!""Sure! Good luck, Dad. Road trips are pretty tiring though, but I hope you get to enjoy your time with Mom once you've mastered how to drive!" Severin couldn't help but smile after hearing this.Judith then said happily, "The medical prescription you gave me works. Look! Can you see my white hair slowly starting to turn black from the roots?"Severin smiled and said, "That's great news! I'll list down the herbs for you again. Just so

At that instant, Infernatur and Damnatur felt a sudden chill, as if an impending doom loomed on the horizon.Severin then said softly to them, "I'm gonna need you as a helping hand!"Infernatur and Damnatur recoiled as a horrifying realization dawned upon them."Have you taken that leap?" Infernatur's voice trembled with uncertainty.Severin remained silent and simply waved his hand gently. The 129,600 cosmic laws surged with boundless power, reducing the huge figures of Infernatur and Damnatur to dust.Within moments, two essences of pure primordial power flowed into Severin's inner world, while the desolate chaos sea crumbled and was consumed by his voracious appetite.Severin's form eventually began to fade until it became a flicker of light that vanished completely. His consciousness had been devoured entirely.Everything before him was empty and devoid of substance.An indefinite amount of time passed before Severin's voice echoed through the emptiness, "Chaos springs from

With a deft stroke of the bronze halberd, the path hovering above Severin shattered."This is a peculiar weapon," Severin recoiled in alarm, raising the Oculus Blade to defend himself "It has the ability to dismantle the great path!"Simultaneously, he utilized his space-time path to shield against potential assaults, especially any sneak attacks.Explosions reverberated, unleashing torrents of elemental energy and spatial turbulence throughout the chaotic sea. Time passed indeterminately amidst the chaos.For centuries, the trio engaged in combat, their auras undiminished by time's passage.Meanwhile, the four Dominus Nosters in the Celestial Realm waged war against the extraterrestrial intruders, reclaiming territories with unparalleled ferocity.Under the leadership of figures like Callide, the extraterrestrials were simply no match for them.The Southern, Western, and Devil Regions were reclaimed quickly, yet everyone from the Celestial Realm remained vigilant, for war conti
Life After Prison Chapter 3112
Outside the Heaven Palace, the few who had been appointed Dominus Noster along with a cohort of quasi-royal celestials were faced with the grim reality at hand.Clad in resplendent hues, Callide—who was their leader and carried the title Dominus Noster Arcanum—donned celestial attire woven from stars and the galaxy. With a regal bearing, she commanded from atop a cloud, "Follow me, my brethren! We shall vanquish the extraterrestrials in the Devil Realm!""At your command, Dominus Noster Arcanum!""Yes, Dominus Noster Arcanum!"With their resounding battle cries, streams of light surged across the Nine Heavens Ten Lands, converging upon the territories occupied by the extraterrestrials—they were the Devil Region, Southern Region, and the Western Region.Amidst the vibrant rainbow, a towering figure emerged, blotting out the sky and earth. Everyone recognized that figure as Severin, and knew that the battle against the quasi-celestial regents would soon begin.Adrian, who was alrea

Armin then spoke with a calm authority, "You cannot remain in this time and space, for you are from the future. It is time you return."As he uttered these words, Severin sensed an invisible force pushing against him and urging him to depart.Standing upon the river of time, he overlooked the tumult of the quasi-celestial regent conflict looming below. He mumbled Armin's counsel, "By receiving nourishment, shattering constraints, tearing open chaos, and reaching the other side…" As Severin pondered over those revelations for an indefinite amount of time, clarity dawned upon him like the sudden rising sun. "So that's the way!"By the time he snapped to his senses, he discovered that his primal spirit had traversed countless epochs in the river of time. "Did I spend that long in the river of time?" he asked himself. Fortunately, the duration he spent in the river of time was but a fleeting moment in the real world.Severin's resolve solidified. Though his brief discourse with Armin,

Severin could sense the mental connection between himself and the weapon, almost as if it was an extension of himself. Severin then raised his gaze to the celestial expanse beyond."I'm almost on Armin's level now that I've made a breakthrough to the rank of quasi-celestial sovereign. However, facing the extraterrestrials' quasi-celestial regents isn't going to be easy meat for me," he mused aloud.Armin was once the sovereign architect of the Imperial Court and the ruler of the Celestial Realm, yet even he found himself at the mercy of the attack of Heaven's Will. Even a mighty quasi-celestial sovereign was reduced to naught but dust.Severin felt the weight of the responsibility settle upon him. Confronting the two quasi-celestial regents would require him to transcend to the realm of celestial sovereign—a realm of which he had scant knowledge of.He understood the concept of the celestial sovereign only in the context of attaining liberation through enlightenment via the 3,000 p

In the vast expanse of the chaotic sea, occasional gusts of strong wind whipped up the formidable chaotic energy. A single whirlpool could claim the life of even a true immortal.Amidst that tumult, two colossal figures lay prone within the abyss. They emanated an aura of unparalleled power, commanding even the paths to heed their authority. The turbid breath exhaled in their slumber had the capacity to tear the fabric of the chaotic void, unveiling dreamlike cosmic chiliocosms.They were the progenitors of the extraterrestrial race, the alpha and omega of the enigmatic beings. Their names were Infernatur and Damnatur. To the uninitiated, and sometimes even to their own kind, it was widely believed that Infernatur and Damnatur were distinct entities. However, they were but facets of the same being.Infernatur could be deemed the primordial offspring of chaos itself, having borne witness to the most primitive and barbaric epochs of the Bleu Celestial Realm. Being born of chaos, he po
Life After Prison Chapter 3108
Heaven Palace could now boast four royal celestials, along with nearly 20 quasi-royal celestials and 5,000 true immortals. Those esteemed individuals once served the Longevity Alliance, Clear Wind Sect, Tri Celestial Island, and Ingeni Paradise. While their numbers paled in comparison to the 120,000 true immortals during the ancient Imperial Court's heyday, Severin was confident that he could revive that with time. After all, the new Imperial Court had only just been re-established, and there was still more work to do.Severin then addressed the assembly, "As you continue raising your attainment, you shall have to anticipate the looming threat of conflict with the extraterrestrials. Now that you have are bestowed with titles as the custodians of heaven and earth, it is our solemn duty to reciprocate the blessings bestowed upon us.""Yes, we shall!" echoed the resolute affirmation from the gathered immortals.Having concluded his address, Severin went to speak briefly with Diane and

In the Heaven Palace, Callide sensed that the aura emanating from Severin was simultaneously as vast the sky and ocean but as indiscernible as that of a mortal. Tremors of terror gripped her, as she knew that he had far surpassed the realm of a cultivator who had attained the perfect-stage royal celestial. It was no exaggeration to say that Severin could obliterate a royal celestial with a mere thought.Balke, Libra, and Creatia shared Callide's apprehension. To them, Severin embodied the very essence of the path—intangible, silent, abstruse, incomprehensible, and undetectable.As the imperial robe adorned Severin, Balke and the others bowed in reverence. "Long live the Celestial Sovereign!" they chanted in unison.A subtle wave of fortune floated toward the heavenly heart imprint as Severin acknowledged their worship with a satisfied smile. He raised his hand and lifted them effortlessly with an unseen force.With a thunderous voice that resonated in their ears, Severin proclaimed
Life After Prison Chapter 3106
The true immortals, quasi-royal celestials, and even the eminent royal celestials held their breath. Everyone observed in silence as Severin wielded the heavenly heart imprint.With each strand of luck infused into the heavenly heart imprint, Severin sensed his dominion over the Bleu Celestial Realm becoming stronger. He had the feeling that he could reshape the world with only a single thought.Once the destinies of tens of thousands of races were bound with the heavenly heart imprint, the golden tourmaline quivered violently and radiated an aura that could be felt across the Nine Heavens Ten Lands. Acknowledging the momentous occasion, Severin tapped his forehead and directed a fragment of his soul to command the heavenly heart imprint. The 3,000 great paths within him erupted from his being and materialized."Today shall be the day that I, Severin, rebuild the Imperial Court in the Nine Heavens! As wielder of the great path, the world shall be inscribed in me, and I shall embody
