Wilbur observed Ian carefully. He seemed to recall hearing his last name being mentioned by Lightning Hank earlier. "Can we talk inside?" Ian said politely. Wilbur smiled and then turned to look behind him. Faye had sat up with the blanket on her legs. He bowed slightly. "Come in." Ian made his way to the living room slowly, sitting down on a corner of the couch. Wilbur sat down next to Faye and lit a cigarette. "How may I help you?" Ian looked at Wilbur and said, "Lightning Hank's dead." "Oh well. He deserved it," Wilbur said calmly. Ian frowned. "The Owens clan started out as a small escort business before switching to corporate when the new Dasha was formed. Nevertheless, we've always been good fighters in the past centuries." "What does that have to do with me?" Wilbur asked calmly. Ian did not respond to Wilbur's question but said, "Clans like ours place value on keeping our true strength hidden to the outside world, and we've built up enough of a name for oursel
"You want me to go with you?" "Yes, I'm a little scared." Wilbur sighed to himself. That girl was quite a handful. It was unfair to say that she was faking it, but she seemed pretty calm the previous night in the face of so many outlaws. However, at the sight of Faye's pitiful expression, Wilbur had no choice but to say yes. Faye brightened up at once. "Alright. I'll come to get you at night. Please be my driver and bodyguard, then. Bye!" Without getting a response, she left the house. Wilbur shook his head and headed to the central garden to practice his martial arts.- Before long, a day had passed. Wilbur was already waiting in the living room for Faye when she came home. "Give me a second, Boss." Faye rushed upstairs and changed into a black evening gown. The V-neck dress showed her cleavage. She also wore a pearl necklace. The gown reached her ankles and radiated an air of charming maturity that was simply breathtaking. Wilbur nodded and commented, "You look
Wilbur frowned. He was indeed wearing casual clothes and did not exactly blend in well with others. However, that guy was being rude with his words. Wilbur glanced at Faye, expecting her to provide an explanation, but Faye was in the middle of a conversation with a man and a woman, and the three were heading upstairs. It was clear that they were going to talk about things. Wilbur said to the man, "I'm Miss Yves' driver." "I don't care whose driver you are. We have no place for people dressed like this in here! Get out right now," the man said unceremoniously. Wilbur's expression darkened. "And who are you?" The man responded haughtily, "Me? Remember this. My name's Mike Cannon, and I own this place. Only upper-class guests are welcome here. Drivers should go where drivers belong." Just then, a muscular man in a suit around thirty years old walked in. Behind him were two pretty women, also wearing body-hugging suits and white gloves. Wilbur could tell, however, that the
"This is truly amazing. I've witnessed something new today. What an eye-opener!" All at once, the crowd was abuzz with praise. The item had also drawn Wilbur's attention. He put down his food and concentrated his spiritual energy, beginning to investigate. Just then, John and the others were looking at the incense holder rather intensely, sensing its mysterious aura with solemn expressions. A while later, John said in a deep voice, "Master Jose, how are you going to go about this?" Master Jose smiled. "Let's have an auction. I've heard that this club is a pretty good auction hall in Seechertown." Just then, Mike piped up. "That's right. Leave the auction up to me, Master Jose." "What's the starting price?" John asked. Master Jose pondered for a while before saying slowly, "To tell the truth, this thing isn't of much importance to me. However, it's definitely a precious treasure to ordinary people. I'll put the starting price at fifty million dollars." The businessmen
All the people calling out prices looked at Wilbur at once. They knew that Wilbur's words were a serious accusation, and the consequences were dire. If he did not provide an explanation, he would not be able to leave the place. To be honest, Wilbur needed things like that as well. It could be said that he needed them more than anyone else in the room. That was why he had focused his spirit energy to investigate the incense holder. However, after some investigation, he immediately knew that it was a fake. That had disappointed him greatly. Yet the sight of all these people fighting over a fake made him laugh, only for him to get in trouble for that. However, he was not scared in the slightest. Wilbur slowly walked up to the crowd and glanced at Master Jose. "Can you tell me your name, and where you live, O' Great Master?" "My name's Jose Smithson. I'm from Numbridge Mountain, currently living in Joland City of Stricton Province," Master Jose said haughtily. Wilbur n
"How dare you break my precious incense holder! You're asking for it!" Jose roared furiously. He shook his robes, and a strong wave of energy surged at Wilbur. The crowd's expression shifted as well. That was supposed to be a legendary spirit weapon. That guy was just too bold. Master Jose was a famous cultivator from the Stricton Province. That guy was done for. Just as everyone was in shock at Wilbur's nerves, he smiled. "Open your eyes and take a closer look." The crowd leaned forward at the broken incense holder, baffled by the situation. Wilbur said, "The incense holder is just a replica of an antique. There's a piece of oud in there that seals the powers in it, letting out a glow and fragrance to make it look like a spirit weapon. It'll disappear in three months, tops. I can't believe such an obvious counterfeit technique was enough to fool all of you." Wilbur's words left everyone in shock, and the crowd began to inspect the broken incense holder. Everyone in the c
Jose's forehead was filled with sweat, and he bowed deeply to Wilbur. "Young man, I admit that I was boasting earlier. Please forgive me." "That's right. Please spare us and show mercy," Mike piped up as well. Wilbur's expression darkened, and he turned to look at Mike. "Show you mercy? I don't remember you being merciful earlier." Mike's expression turned ugly from his anger, unable to say anything else. Jose knew he had messed up, but those words he said earlier were merely a boast! He was not going to take off himself just like that. He looked at Wilbur with an apologetic expression. "It's my fault for not knowing my items, young man. I'm sorry. I'm willing to compensate you ten million dollars in exchange for your forgiveness." Wilbur smiled. Of course, he was not going to make Jose take his own life over such a trivial matter. However, the 10,000,000 dollars was another matter. After all, the two had been quite rude to him earlier. Wilbur wet his finger with the te
She was alone in the middle of the night, barefoot and only clad in pajamas that were caked with dirt. Anyone could tell that something had happened to her. Tears streamed down the girl's face, but she remained silent. Faye continued to try coaxing the girl, while Wilbur could only stare. A while later, the girl's emotions were finally a little more stable. Faye brought the girl to her room and gave her a new set of pajamas to change into. She washed the girl's face as well before bringing her to the living room again. Looking at the girl then, she was honestly quite pretty. It was unclear just what had happened to her. Faye made the girl a bowl of pasta and continued to give her advice and comfort. At last, the girl started talking after she ate. The girl's name was Shelby Seacrest. She was from a rural village and had a boyfriend who was going to university in Seechertown. She had come to Seechertown with her boyfriend and worked to pay her boyfriend's school fees. Bu
Faye was clad in a beautiful wedding dress, hardly needing any blusher for how red her cheeks looked. Wilbur was also looking dapper in a fine tuxedo, and the bride and groom went around toasting to their friends one by one. Both their parents were overjoyed, knowing that their children had finally ended up with someone so wonderful. Everyone else was also brimming with smiles, drinking up a storm as the night went on. These people were all friends or subordinates of Wilbur and wanted nothing more than the best for him and Faye. There was no wedding emcee, and the ceremony was extremely simple, but the atmosphere was incomparable as everyone was nothing but smiles. The reception lasted all the way until late into the night, and even the newlyweds' parents got a little tipsy. The banquet ended at last, and the guests ushered Wilbur and Faye into their new bedroom. The newlyweds sat down facing each other, locking eyes. Faye lowered her head bashfully, and Wilbur looked
It was evening on Sealake Island when Wilbur returned. He stood on the long bridge, overwhelmed with emotion as he let out a hint of his aura. The island grew abuzz at once, and a series of familiar figures fought their way into Wilbur's line of sight. Wilbur smiled, stepping onto the island slowly. His smile grew as he came to the square, taking in the sight of Faye, Elsa, Faron, Shepard, and many others. Everyone else stared back at him, unable to hide the emotion on their faces. It had been so long since they had seen Wilbur, and there was no way for them to reach him. Words could not describe how much they had worried about and missed him. "I thought you were never coming back, Wilbur." Faye was the first to speak. Wilbur walked up to her, taking her into his arms. "I'm sorry. It'll never happen again. Everything's over now, and I'll never leave you again." Faye's heart soared as she broke out into overjoyed sobs. Everyone else was nothing but joyous as well. Fo
Bahamut, being a reincarnation of Kaiser himself, came slithering toward Wilbur. They both turned into their human forms, and a fierce battle broke out once more. Kaiser channeled his energy into Bahamut's body, giving Bahamut the upper hand over time. At last, Bahamut severely wounded Wilbur with a blow of his sword, causing Wilbur to fall from mid-air. "Hahaha!" Kaiser appeared suddenly then, laughing loudly. "Nice work, Bahamut." "Thank you, Master." Bahamut retreated behind Kaiser, looking at him coldly. He whipped out a dagger from his sleeves all of a sudden, driving it deep into Kaiser. Kaiser flipped around sharply, grabbing Bahamut's wrist and glowering at him. "Have you lost your mind?" Just then, the Dark Lord's voice sounded from Bahamut's throat. "You've stopped me many times now, Kaiser Fern! There's no way in hell I'll let you become the ultimate elite!" A furious Kaiser reached out to grab Bahamut's head, sucking him into his body. An explosion sounded throu
Just then, the Cold Lord muttered a spell. A series of snowy mountains descended from above, one of them striking Wilbur and Augheimer as the Cold Lord cackled. "Haha! Is that all you've got?" As his words rang through the air, the snowy mountain exploded with a loud boom into countless icy fragments to reveal Wilbur and Augheimer, standing tall and completely unaffected. "What?" "These imbeciles!" the Flame God shouted. The air around turned into a sea of flames at once, burning away relentlessly, but they vanished as soon as they came in contact with Wilbur and Augheimer's defense barriers. The Earth God shouted, "I'll settle this!" He muttered a spell, and the ground cracked open as Wilbur and Augheimer fell into a bottomless abyss. The Earth God smirked, and the crack began to close up. Yet just a few seconds later, the ground exploded as Wilbur and Augheimer flew back up. The Tornado God cast a spell to bring about a fierce gust of wind filled with countless razor-sh
The next second, Wilbur's Magic Dragon Blade made a gash in the air. The two men then wove through the gash, making their way to the lower dimensions from the upper dimensions and returning to Earth. The gash closed itself up, and a powerful wave of black miasma surged into the oceans from the heavens. It cleared up within a few minutes, and Earth was turned into a dark space. Several big fissures appeared in the heavens as the evil gods descended on Earth. The Blood God, the God of Destruction, the Cold Lord, the Flame God, the Earth God, the Tornado God, the God of Bloodlust, and the Snake God—all eight evil gods had descended upon Earth at the same time. Wilbur summoned the broken pieces of the Light Armor from the Fire Dragon Ring. The pieces radiated a white glow as they hovered in mid-air, and Wilbur quickly used his mind to put them together before wearing the Light Armor on his body. "Hahaha!" The Blood God laughed loudly. "I guess the universe dimensions aren't all
Hailey and Kayleen ducked out of the way before the pillars of light reached them, darting up to Sade at the last second as Hailey drove her sword into him at the same time Kayleen did the same with her spear. Hailey glowered at Sade. "You're the one who's really despicable here, Sade. Say goodbye to the world forever!" "Arghhhh!" Sade's body exploded in a flash of white light, disappearing out of sight. Hailey and Kayleen both got down on one knee. "At your service, Masters." Just then, Wilbur and Augheimer looked at the two ladies at the same time. Augheimer said, "At ease. You can both go back now, your work here is done." "Yes, Master." Hailey and Kayleen disappeared the next second. Just then, a fierce wind rolled over as a pillar of white light descended from the heavens as Odysseus appeared in front of the two men. "Wilbur Penn and Augheimer. I’ve finally found you. Tell me where the dimension guardians are, and hand them over!" A gleeful Odysseus reached out t
Sade threw his head back, laughing loudly. "No one has the right to replace me, no one! I'm the real dimensional guardian, the leader of the galaxy!" Just then, two figures appeared in the sky. They were Hailey and Kayleen, two of the other dimensional guardians. Hailey was holding a long sword as she scowled at Sade below her. "You went against the rules of the universe and changed its functions, Sade. And now you've killed Wilbur Penn, the cultivator who was supposed to replace you. For that, Kayleen and I are going to kill you today." Sade smirked at those words, not looking shocked at all. "I knew you two would never let me go for killing Wilbur. But he's already dead, and I still need to maintain order in the universe as a dimensional guardian. Even though you two may hate me, you can't kill me or you'd be going against the rules of the universe too, and have to be sentenced by Mister Richardson. Trust me, you won't end up in much better of a state than I'm in." Just then
Augheimer asked out of confusion, "What? To the upper dimension? All of a sudden?" Wilbur looked flustered, he replied, "There's no time to explain. Odysseus will be here in a while, and we won't be able to escape." Sade looked at Wilbur. He told Augheimer, "He's right. Believe him. Why would your close friend lie to you?" "That's right. He's a dimensional guardian, Sade. I begged Sade to go back in time here. Hurry up and come with me, Augheimer!" "Thanks, but if we're leaving, we should at least go to Buck Town and meet Felix one last time, right?" asked Augheimer. Wilbur looked at Augheimer in the eyes, there was a sense of familiarity that welled up all of a sudden. Wilbur instantly realized Augheimer had a secret in Buck Town, and perhaps it was very important to Augheimer. He helplessly nodded and replied, "Alright, we'll go to Buck Town first." Then, the three of them came to Buck Town through a transportation array. Augheimer grabbed Wilbur and ran. He said, "Run! F
"Damn it! Your second wish was supposed to be mine!" yelled Odysseus. Odysseus once captured a dimensional guardian's servant by chance, and he used him as leverage to obtain his final two wishes. His first wish was for Sade to guide him to the most powerful power of light spell. His second wish was for Sade to lead him to the Death Scepter. Odysseus mastered the power of two types of laws, the power of light and the power of death. He quickly grasped the intricacies of the power of death due to his unique talent. Odysseus wielded the might of both supreme spells with the Death Scepter and the most powerful power of light spell. Therefore, Odysseus gained immense confidence. His capabilities far surpassed most upper dimension cultivators, but he remained in the middle dimension. His desire was to once again capture a second dimensional guardian servant. Odysseus planned to acquire the Death Cloak by obtaining the servant's wish. Ultimately, he would combine the Death Cloak, D
