Frederick was walking down the street, and realized that there were many more undercover agents.Although they were disguised, he could see through their disguise from a single glance. After all, whether it was the way they stood or their tensed muscles, he could tell that they were in a state of alert.This was when an undercover agent locked eyes with Frederick. This undercover agent seemed very young. He was likely in his twenties.He looked Frederick up and down before frowning slightly and walking towards him."Are you a cultivator?"Frederick wasn’t surprised that he was identified as a cultivator. After all, he wasn’t deliberately hiding his aura."Come with me," the undercover agent said to Frederick after he saw Frederick nodding.Frederick followed him to the side. The agent then retrieved a register. There were already many cultivators' information registered on it, but they were all from out of town."Are you in law enforcement? I'm a local from Mirage. I've alway
“Levy, are you badly hurt?”Soon, Levy Hewitt's help arrived.Levy shook his head, even though his shoulder still ached.“That's him! Don't let him get away!” Levy said, pointing at Frederick.He had never seen such an arrogant cultivator who had the audacity to stand still and wait around after he called for help."I've done nothing wrong. Why should I run away?"Frederick seemed calm.He had not thought of running in the first place. If he did, he would also seem guilty. Based on Levy's character and his way of doing things, he might even put Frederick on the wanted list."If you're innocent, why do you refuse to be searched?" someone asked coldly.“I'm a Mirage local. He asked me to register my information, and I did. Yet, he still wants to search me. I'd like to ask, who gave you the authority to search me at will?” Frederick sneered.The man looked at Levy in surprise."If you've done nothing wrong, what's wrong with letting us search you? As long as you're proven to be
Just as Rowan said, Levy was indeed pitiful.Although Levy's parents were both factory workers when he was a child, and they were not exactly well off, they were able to put food on their plates. His family was happy.However, when he was seven, an accident made him lose accident.Two cultivators were fighting in the middle of the town. The impact of the fight destroyed Levy's house.Levy, who was only seven, was shielded in his father's arms. However, both his parents died after the house collapsed.Although the two cultivators were later arrested and sentenced to death by the Drakonia Royal Court, his family was alreaady torn apart.Since then, the seed of hatred towards cultivators had been planted in Levy's heart. He worked hard to get into the police academy, and finally joined the Unusual Incidents Unit. His goal was to punish all the law-breaking cultivators in the world.“At this rate, sooner or later, he'll get himself killed. You'd better talk to him about this."Fr
Jennifer opened the door, and stepped inside the villa.Zacharias and Zeke, who were sitting on the couch in the living room, looked up when they heard the door being opened.Jennifer was surprised by how much their appearances had changed.Zacharias and Zeke had lived in the villa for less than two months, but they seemed to have aged more than a decade. Their hair turned gray, and they had a lot more wrinkles than they did before."Jennifer, you finally came!" Zacharias stood up with an excited expression on his face.“What are you doing here? Zac, she's a heartless person. Even if she's here, she'll only make our father's condition worse!" Zeke snorted angrily.Jennifer glanced at him, and chose to ignore him."Dad, how did you end up like this?"Jennifer looked at Zacharias with a complicated look on her face."It's all thanks to you!" Zeke sneered."It's my own fault for over-thinking. Your grandfather hasn't been doing very well these past few days. That has cleared up
Soon, the medical team arrived at the villa. The medical team belonged to Serenova Medical.They soon completed the full body check-up on Xavier.The doctor nodded to Jennifer after the results were out. She followed the doctor downstairs."He does indeed have stage four lung cancer. In fact, it is likely that systemic organ failures will occur," the doctor said softly.Jennifer's heart clenched when she heard this."Is there any hope for treatment?" she asked.The doctor frowned, and thought for a moment."It won't be easy. Your only hope now is to go to Meyo Clinic. They recently announced they have developed a targeted treatment for lung cancer, and they're recruiting volunteers from around the world to participate in the clinical trial. Currently, a single spot costs up to hundreds of millions. After all, lung cancer patients don't have the luxury of time to wait for the technology to be mature and available on the market."Since this was a clinical trial, they couldn’t pos
Jennifer frowned.At this point, if she continued to refuse, she would appear heartless. However, she had an uneasy feeling about this. She still could not trust Zacharias and Zeke."Grandpa, let's talk about this after I contact Meyo Clinic and get their approval to participate in the clinic trial, alright?"Jennifer forced a smile upon her face.Xavier grimaced, and nodded."Anyway, if I can't have my loved ones with me, I'd rather not receive treatment. I don't want to die alone," he said.Jennifer sighed softly before leaving the villa."Zeke, are you sure this medicine can get past medical tests?" Zacharias asked Zeke after Jennifer had left."Zac, I've told you several times now. This isn't fake. This medicine really can make sure Dad gets lung cancer!" Zeke explained impatiently."W-What about the antidote? Will it work?" Zacharias asked with a frown. He sounded concerned.While speaking, he turned around to look nervously at Xavier.He sighed in relief after realiz
Jennifer retrieved her phone, and picked up the call."Where are you? I went to the office to look for you. An employee said you haven't been to work for a few days now. Don't forget that you still have to take over Anakin Pharmaceuticals in the Imperial Capital. What's the matter? Is Anakin Pharmaceuticals not good enough for you, Ms. York?" Frederick teased.Jennifer rolled her eyes.Anakin Pharmaceuticals was one of Drakonia's leading drug companies. Its market value was higher than Prospera Corporation."I've been busy with things at home these days."She sounded a little tired."Things at home? Oh, right. You said your grandfather was sick the other day. How is he? Is it serious?" Only then did Frederick recall this."He has stage four lung cancer. The doctor said he has less than three months," Jennifer said in a hushed voice.Frederick was stunned for a moment. He then frowned."Where is he getting treatment now?" he asked."Meyo Clinic developed a targeted treatment f
Jennifer was stunned when she read the message. She clutched the phone so hard that her knuckles turned pale."What did you do?" Zacharias asked with a frown when he saw Zeke's movements next to him.“Nothing. I just sent a text message to my adorable niece," Zeke said with a chuckle."What did you send her?" Zacharias's eyes widened with surprise."I only told her we would give her a present after we arrive." Zeke shrugged nonchalantly."We're still in the country!" Zacharias snarled through clenched jaws after taking a deep breath."The plane's already taken off. Do you think she can make the plane turn around?"Zeke pointed out the window. From where they sat, they were able to see the plane's wings through the window. At this moment, the airplane's wings were already pointing diagonally to the sky, and the nose of the plane was cocked upwards.“Let's hope there are no surprises.” Zacharias glared at Zeke, his tone full of concern.“You're just scared out of your wits by
