There was disbelief in Wallace's eyes and he could not even begin to fathom that Severin was stronger than him.He glanced at Sheila and grew even more jealous when he saw how relieved she was. He clenched his fists at once and then charged right at Severin again. Both his fists were facing front as he turned his body and attacked Severin at the same time. "Rock Crushing Fist!""Is he using martial arts? I'm guessing he doesn't intend to show me any mercy!" Severin could tell from Wallace's posture that the latter was attacking him without holding back. He then executed a body flicker at a speed that was more than twice as fast as before, enabling him to easily dodge Wallace's attack."What just happened?!" Thinking that Severin would not be able to dodge in time, Wallace was initially happy when saw that his attack was about to land on Severin. To his surprise, however, his attack failed to land on Severin!'How could it be possible to dodge at that speed?' Wallace wondered. 'The
As soon as Wallace heard that, he got so angry that he nearly fainted. 'Why did I even provoke him for no reason? Things are even worse now! Not only am I injured, I even gave Miss Sheila and Severin a chance to be alone! And if I can't see Miss Sheila for half a month, I can't imagine what Severin would do to try and curry favor with her again.'Four men carried him into the car, which soon drove off."Hehe, he overestimated himself!" Lillie could not help but chuckle as she watched the car drive away. "Then again, he should be honored to receive his injuries from our master. Many people don't even get the chance to fight him!"Wendy agreed. "Yeah! That bodyguard is really ignorant! He thinks he's strong!"Sheila had a slightly odd expression as she looked at the two beautiful bodyguards. Sure enough, the man she liked was so charming that even the bodyguards had become his fans. After all, why else would they say something so positive about Severin?Sheila then looked at Severin
Aside from a few lanes for cars to come and out, there were also some walking paths that had a lot of flowers and plants planted all around. The tranquility of the place made it perfect for those who wished to take a stroll and feel at peace with nature. Walking on the path gave Severin a sense of calmness and a rare moment of relaxation.Sheila, on the other hand, felt elated and her emotions were like that of someone who had fallen in love for the first time. After all, she had never been in a relationship before, and she felt a little nervous when walking beside the handsome Severin."Ahem, umm…do you mind sharing with me what happened to you in the past, and how you managed to meet your wife?" Sheila broke the silence after deciding to ask him.Severin beamed with a sweet smile at the corner of his lips when he spoke about Diane, and he could not help but say, "Hehe, it's thanks to these two despicable people named Easton and Lucy that I got to meet Diane. If it weren't for them
Severin and Sheila chatted away happily as they walked, and in a villa not too far from where they were, Jada—who was drinking tea on the balcony on the second floor—was stunned to see the two of them."That can't be possible, right? Isn't that Sheila Ballard? Why is Sheila and Severin..." Jada was dumbstruck to see the two of them taking such an enjoyable stroll together. After all, Sheila's connection to Brookbourn Mansion made her status much higher than that of Robin.It came as a complete surprise to her that Severin was walking and chatting with Sheila. A sudden thought came to mind and she immediately put down her teacup so she could take out her phone, and zoomed in on them using the camera to secretly snap some photos of them."Why would that damn Severin have such a good relationship with Sheila? He's probably her boytoy!" Jada gritted her teeth angrily after thinking of what Severin had done to her and her father. She then thought to herself and mumbled, "I wonder if th
Edward smiled bitterly, and said, "It can't be helped. I've thought over the situation and decided that we should continue to spend more money to hire assassins. We've underestimated Severin's strength, so our only choice is to hire stronger, better assassins! If even a four stars assassin is unreliable, we should hire a six stars assassin!"The corners of Easton's mouth twitched slightly and he asked, "Six stars? What if they're still unreliable? And besides, there's no discount now that their anniversary is over. How much will a six stars assassin even cost?"Edward frowned. A six stars assassin cost four and a half million, but since he previously told them that the price of four stars assassin was six million before discount, he could not quote them a price that was lower than that. However, he could not give too high a price either, because he was afraid that the two of them might be startled by the amount and decide to give up on the plan.After thinking for a while, he said,
"Is that so? Who is this girl anyway?" Edward did not quite believe Jada's words, so he smiled faintly and looked over. As soon as he saw who was in the picture, he gasped and said, "My God! Isn't that Sheila Ballard? Why is Sheila walking with Severin?"The corners of Easton's mouth twitched a few times. "He…he's a boytoy? I didn't think he'd actually get together with Sheila!"Lucy saw the surprised looks of both men and could not help but wonder out loud, "Who is Sheila? Is she rich? Richer than Edward?"Easton immediately replied, "She's not just rich. Her family is richer than the Zelankos and the Longhorns. She's the only daughter of Brookbourn Mansion leader, and those who marry her would almost certainly shoot to the top!”Edward nodded too. "The biggest force in Brookbourn is Brookbourn Mansion. You might think that they're sitting in their ivory tower in complete detachment from the world, but some of the upper-class families are required to pay them a certain sum of mone
Jada frowned and said, "I've been wondering who it was that hired the trio on the day of the Liberty City launching. It would've cost a lot of money to hire three people at once, so could it have been Rufus?""It could be, but we can't even consider relying on other people. We'll be in big trouble if Severin wins Sheila's heart anytime soon. After all, his beef is with us, and none of us will be able to escape his wrath once he secures power!" Edward pointed out.…At that moment, Severin had finished his walk with Sheila and they finally returned to his villa. Once they were back, Severin looked at the time and said to her, "I'll be busy tonight, Miss Sheila, but I can drive you home. Regarding your father's illness, you can rest assured that I'll check him soon, but based on my preliminary judgment, it's likely that he has been poisoned!""Poisoned? That's not funny at all! How did he get poisoned? He's always been in good health, but he's recently been a little weak, especially
"Hehe, you're just an immature little girl in my eyes!" Severin chuckled and did not want to entertain her question. He parked the car outside her villa and said to her, "We've arrived, Miss Sheila!"Sheila looked down at her bust and frowned slightly. "Is this still immature for you? What's your definition of mature, then?"Severin looked speechlessly at her. Sheila, being the immature girl that she was, had an adorably bubbly character. However, certain parts of her body seemed rather mature, and were further emphasized by the tight seatbelt around her waist.His speechless expression amused Sheila greatly. She loosened her seat belt, but rather than getting off, she said to him, "You're handsome and capable, so why are you such a coward?""Me? A coward?" Severin frowned. 'When was I ever a coward?Sheila smiled slyly. "Yeah, you! I know many rich and capable people who have more than one wife, and the only reason you're afraid of marrying a girl who is cute, good-looking, and h
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
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
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
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
