Wilbur stood in front of Sammy, blocking those men from harming her. Barry instantly sneered upon seeing that. He asked, "Who the f*ck are you? How dare you meddle in my business?" "Haven't you heard of the saying 'If you are neutral in situations of injustice, you have chosen the side of the oppressor'?" Wilbur asked nonchalantly. He did not want to meddle, but Barry had gone too far. Ignorance might be excusable if he did not know, but he would be wrong to stand by and watch it happen in front of him. Moreover, Sammy did a promotional concert for Cape Consortium. If she were to be involved in a scandal, the promotional efforts would turn into a joke. Barry laughed when he heard what Wilbur said. He pointed at him and said, "Alright, you're the first person who has the gall to meddle in my business in Toneville. Beat him up." Barry was extremely arrogant. He wanted to beat Wilbur into a pulp even though they were in public. Wilbur frowned. Suddenly, Ted jogged over and s
The woman sighed and said, "Sammy, you're not the same as five years ago. He spent a lot of money to hire you, but you won't show him any respect. I'm having a hard time as your agent." "Miss Lawson, I don't feel so well today. Can we forget about it tonight?" Sammy asked with a frown. Miss Lawson sighed and walked toward Barry. She smiled apologetically and said, "Mister Lance, Sammy isn't feeling well. We should cancel the dinner party tonight. She has a concert performance tomorrow night. How about having her accompany you after she's rested?" Barry ignored her and looked at Wilbur, warning him, "I'll remember you. We'll meet again very soon." After that, he turned and left. Miss Lawson and her assistants hurriedly followed behind Barry and apologized. Noticing that their boss had left, Barry's subordinates quickly scrambled to their feet and fled the scene. They were the only ones who knew how hard Wilbur had hit them. Wilbur stood in front of Sammy and asked, "Are yo
Sammy left feeling frustrated. She went back to her penthouse suite and lay on the bed. She felt like she was in turmoil. She had been down on her luck for the past few years. Her records flopped, and her popularity kept plummeting. Fees for her appearance were getting lower and lower, to the point where she could barely make ends meet. The situation had left her anxious and depressed. 'Does it really have anything to do with the necklace though?' she wondered. She removed the necklace. It was a platinum necklace with a red ruby pendant. She remembered when she was at the peak of popularity. Her best friend, who was also a singer, spent a lot of money on the necklace during a trip to Ryland. She also hired a monk to bless the necklace for luck and prosperity. 'My best friend is so nice to me. How can my failing career possibly have anything to do with this necklace?' She thought about it, then put on the necklace again. It was a symbol of their friendship, so she could not
They walked to the hotel and took the elevator to the rooftop. The rooftop was a banquet hall. Men in black suits stood at the entrance of the elevator lobby. They filled the entire corridor and gave off a daunting presence. It was clearly closed off to the public. They were stopped by those men as soon as they stepped out of the elevator. Ted stepped forward and said, "He's with me, and he's the boss. I vouch for him." Ted seemed to be a regular there who was very familiar with the place. The leader of the bodyguards glanced at Wilbur, nodded, then allowed him to enter. Wilbur looked at the neverending line of men in black suits as he walked. He said, "You have quite the reputation here." "I've been messing around in Toneville since I was a kid. Everyone here shows me some respect." Wilbur nodded. People like Ted may not be of high status, but he was well-connected. When people needed something, they would seek help from someone like him. He was the kind of person who co
Wilbur chuckled upon hearing that and asked, "Who the hell are you? Do I need to know you?" His words instantly caused an uproar among the crowd. The Lance brothers were well known. Xavier Lance had been in the mafia since he was a kid, and he was famous for being ruthless. He had encountered an expert who taught him how to fight when he was a teenager, and he became exceptionally skilled in combat. He ruled over Toneville from then on, and no one dared to cross him. The older brother, Barry Lance, was clever and used his younger brother's reputation on the streets as a steppingstone to enter the business world. He went through it all, and he eventually built the Lance financial empire. The Lance brothers had been running Toneville ever since Saul Mendes announced his retirement and lived in seclusion. Any businessmen in Toneville had to bow down to the brothers, no matter how successful they were. They could not believe this young man standing in front of them disrespect
Xavier was enraged by Wilbur's reply and ordered his goons, "Kill him!" Hundreds of men in black suits surrounded Wilbur with their swords drawn. It looked like they were going to cut Wilbur into pieces. Sammy instantly turned pale, and her legs turned weak. The crowd did not dare to watch any further and turned to look away. Suddenly, someone yelled at the door, "Saul Mendes has arrived." Everyone was shocked to hear that. They all stood up to watch. Xavier also hurriedly stopped his subordinates and rushed toward the door. A slim, elderly man in a white outfit slowly walked in with a young man. Xavier bowed and smiled along. He asked, "Mister Mendes, why did you come without informing me? I would've picked you up." The elderly man known as Mister Mendes waved it off and said, "There's no need for that. I heard something incredible came up in this auction, so I came to have a look." "What are you interested in? I'll just send it to your house." Xavier walked toward t
Sammy was terrified. She only wanted to get it over with, then get away from that place. She would never step foot in Toneville again.Wilbur frowned and looked at the brothers. He said slowly, "I'm offering you guys two choices. First, give me back my two hundred million dollars, my bronze sword, and let go of Sammy Shandon. That way, this will be forgiven. The second choice is I'll take Sammy and the bronze sword, and I'll spare your lives if you pay me five hundred million dollars as compensation. Choose wisely."The Lance brothers were flabbergasted. The audience was also in disbelief.'Is this guy seriously joking at this point? Does he want to die?'Sammy screamed, "Are you crazy? Do you want to get me killed?"Saul suddenly opened his eyes to look at Wilbur. Then, he slowly shut his eyes and started to rest again.The Lance brothers were briefly stunned, but then they laughed maniacally right after."He really is crazy." Then, Xavier had a quick change in his demeanor and
"Argh!" Xavier was instantly sent flying away. He kept coughing up blood before he hit the wall behind him and cracked it from the impact. His body then slowly slid to the floor. Wilbur scoffed coldly and stood with hands behind his back. He looked coldly at Xavier who was unconscious on the floor. Everyone exclaimed and looked at Wilbur in disbelief. It was as if they saw a ghost. Some people stood up because they were shocked. Ted blacked out because of fear. Barry could not believe that Wilbur injured his brother with one punch. He was shocked, feeling a sense of dread crept into his heart. He unconsciously let go of the hand that was choking Sammy. Sammy covered her mouth in shock. She looked at Wilbur in disbelief. 'I don't believe this! Is this even humanly possible?' Saul suddenly opened his eyes and looked at Wilbur in surprise. He seemed shocked and lost in his own thoughts. Xavier finally caught his breath after a moment. He struggled to get up as he sought
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
