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
"I know that you have a sense of responsibility toward Diane, but you need to have a sense of responsibility toward me too!" Sheila immediately turned around and said to Severin."Why should I have a sense of responsibility toward you?" Severin smiled wryly and turned around to question her.Sheila then tilted her head, stretched forward suddenly, and gave Severin a peck on the lips. "There! That's why you should be responsible toward me! I gave you my first kiss, so shouldn't you be responsible to me?" Sheila then turned her head away in an instant. Her face and ears were red, while her heart was beating non-stop. Severin was stubborn, and he was not a pervert either, so the only way for her to have a glimmer of hope is if she took the initiative to kiss him.Severin was stunned, for he never expected Sheila would be so bold as to give him a kiss. It all happened so suddenly too! More importantly, it was her first kiss, a moment that was important for any girl! He truly had no word
Severin sneered to himself when he saw Stanley arriving with three women and two men. That Stanley neglected to ask whether or not Severin would agree to it made it abundantly clear that he was trying to bleed Severin's wallet dry, since he already knew that Severin was treating him that day. Moreover, Stanley must have planned to use Severin's money to bolster his reputation, so the rest of the people would remember it as being a treat from Stanley.However, Severin did not think it mattered much since it was never his original intention to treat Stanley to a drink."Yo, Severin! You came early!" Stanley immediately walked over and pretended to be friendly with Severin when he saw the latter standing there. He knew that Severin had placed something heavy into the medical box earlier that day to get back at him, and although he did not know what Severin could have placed in it to make it so heavy, Severin told him to carry the medical box without ever using it at all. As a result, he
However, if Severin could remain calm and resist temptation in the face of a bold little beauty like Sheila, it stood to reason that he would never be tempted by those brazen women. He smiled slightly and said, "Oh, really? Why do I feel that you girls are sick in the head? And it's a serious mental illness too!"The three women were stunned. 'What's going on?'Moments later, Coco pulled Severin's wrist again and said, "Oh, Doctor Severin, you're so amazing! I guess there is something wrong with my mind, and it seems to be pretty bad too! My mind is now filled with thoughts of you!"Severin nearly fainted! Those women were master seducers, and he was appalled that they could respond in such a way when he had clearly called them mentally ill."Hey, hey, hey! What's up with you girls? You were fine before? Now you're aching everywhere! Can you still drink tonight?" Stanley asked with a smile. He then patted Coco's buttocks and said, "Oh, Coco, you have an ache on your a*s, right? How
Coco did not expect that Severin would ask her about it so secretly. She was overjoyed. "Oh, Doctor, you're a rich man who makes money easily, so you have to come to this place and enjoy yourself more often. What's the point of making so much money if you don't spend it, am I right?”After a pause, Coco answered his question. "The Royal Pavilion Room has a minimum spend of three hundred thousand, but that's just a drop in the ocean for you, right? Some of the wines here cost a few thousand, so we can easily meet the minimum spend with a couple of bottles! Spending a few hundred thousand isn't too much for you, is it?"Severin smiled awkwardly. "Not at all!" Even so, he was quite upset that Stanley chose the most expensive room without even asking him, but not that it mattered anyway. After all, Stanley would come to regret it eventually!Sure enough, the room was very large, and the decoration was quite magnificent too! As soon as they entered, Severin sat down without saying anothe
Severin was not interested in the slightest, and he felt unaccustomed to that sort of place. However, Stanley and his companions were heavy drinkers, and they drank red wine like it was beer.The four B-girls who kept them company did not just sit around either, and they had drunk more than half of the wine that was ordered earlier."Why are you so reluctant to let yourself loose, Doctor Severin? Your life will be dull and boring if you don't relax when you're out having fun!"Buttercup rolled her eyes and made a point to lean closer to Severin when she saw that he was sitting there quietly without showing any interest in dancing or singing. Worse still, he only spoke when they asked him a question!On the other side, Coco deliberately pulled up the sexy short skirt she was wearing, as if she was afraid that Severin would not notice her long sexy legs otherwise.When Buttercup saw that, she took hold of Severin's arm, pressed her breasts against Severin's arm, and leaned her head
"Ugh, I'm getting a little dizzy!" Severin drank a few more glasses, and when he saw that the wine on the table was nearly finished, he could not help but rub his head and try to find an opportunity to leave."Oh, come on, Doctor Severin! Your medical skills may be great, but your alcohol tolerance is a little too low! We haven't even had enough to drink yet!" Tina immediately protested."There's not much wine left, Doctor! Can I order some more?" Stanley smiled slightly and asked Severin deliberately. "You can't be a party pooper when our girls haven't had their fill yet!"Severin waved his hand, and said boldly, "I won't spoil the fun, of course. Go ahead and order whatever you want, haha!""Don't mind if we do, then!" Stanley gave the two drunk men beside him a wink, and their eyes lit up right away. Before long, they ordered some more wine, knowing that they could store the unfinished ones there for another time.Severin immediately knew what Stanley's intentions were when he
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
