“I bought this villa a few years back, and I stay here most of the time.”

Quinn explained to Chase while pointing at a bedroom on the second floor. "That will be your room from now on.”

Even though she was not willing to live with a man, Chase was now her husband in name. She could not let him wander around homeless.

Besides, Chase had offended Huey, and Huey was determined to hurt Chase. She could not let anything happen to him.

“Are we considered to be living together now?” Chase said to her with a small smile.

“Don’t even think about it.”

Quinn’s pretty face blushed as she glared at him. “I just feel sorry that you have nothing and nowhere to stay in South River City, which is why I'm letting you stay here. Don’t overthink this.

“But we need to come to an agreement before you move in.”

“Go ahead,” Chase said.

“First, you’re not allowed to touch me, not even hold my hand.

“Second, you aren’t allowed into my room without my permission. And you can’t touch any of my things,

    Quinn’s kitchen was huge and luxurious.Chase was speechless when he opened her refrigerator.It was worth over a hundred thousand, but there was nothing in there but a dry pack of pasta.Spices left on the stove such as salt and pepper were all brand new and still wrapped up.Pasta was the only thing Chase could cook for her. Considering that she was a working woman who was constantly networking, he did not put in any pungent ingredients such as garlic.Despite the lack of ingredients, he managed to serve up the pasta.Quinn sniffed the pasta and was surprised as she said, “It smells really good. I can’t believe you really do know how to make a meal.”Chase said, “There’s nothing left in your house but pasta. You’ll need to make do with this for now. I’ll make more for you if this isn’t enough.”He had stayed in the mountains for decades, and Chase had learned to cook because he was in charge of taking care of the old man.Quinn was too hungry and immediately dug into the pas

    Chase shook his head and said, “Get your men to stand down. I know how to handle this.”“Alright.” Bianca left with her men.Chase looked coldly into the dark night. “You asked for this, Harrigans.”…When Bianca got home, she immediately told William about what happened.She asked, “Grandpa, the Harrigans seem determined to kill Dr. Collins. What should we do?”William grunted coldly and said, “Warn Huey Harrigan to stay away from Dr. Collins in the name of the Coopers. Tell him that Dr. Collins is our benefactor. If he dares touch Dr. Collins, he'll be making an enemy out of us.”“Grandpa, the Harrigans are South River City’s most elite family…” Bianca was shocked by his words. She did not expect her grandfather to be hot-tempered enough to choose a direct confrontation with the Harrigans.“It doesn’t matter if they're the most elite family.”William laughed coldly and said, “Don’t forget that Dr. Collins has the Dragon Soul Ring. The Harrigans are lesser than ants in the

    About ten minutes later in the homestay located in South River City’s suburbs, Chase was here to see Julia again. He was disappointed that there was no improvement in Julia’s mental condition.She was still afraid of strangers and sunlight. She was even frequently disturbed by nightmares of the fire.Sam could not help asking, “Sir, how about if I send her overseas to a psychiatric hospital?”“It’s fine.” Chase shook his head and said, “I can treat her. All I require is some things that I might need you to prepare for me.”“Please tell me what they are.” Sam perked up immediately.Chase wrote down a medical prescription. “I need you to use your connections to help me find these medical herbs, especially the main herb, Sky Spirit Flower.”“Secondly, I need you to find me a calligraphy pen. Not the ordinary kind, but the kind of pen that has spiritual energy.”Sam looked at Chase in bewilderment. “A calligraphy pen with spiritual energy?”He had lived quite a life but had never

    Early the next morning, Chase woke up to find Quinn gone. There was a note on the table.[I’m off for work. I made you breakfast. It’s in the insulation cabinet. Finish it before coming to work. By the way, I’ve also washed your clothes. Hang them out to dry yourself.]“This woman isn’t as cold as I thought…” Chase smiled and took his breakfast out of the insulation cabinet to finish it.After he was done hanging his clothes out to dry, Chase headed straight for Blizzard Group.Every single person in Blizzard Group from the low-level employees to the higher management was especially busy at work. Even lunch was settled at their office tables.Chase knocked on the door and entered the CEO’s office. Quinn looked up at him and said gleefully, “You’re here just in time, Chase. I need you to take this document over to La Fleur and get them to stamp it.”Chase had no idea how to react to this task. He asked, “Where’s your secretary? Isn’t this supposed to be her job?”“Elaine is meeti

    Chase was not angered. Instead, he replied with amusement, “Will you believe it if I say that you won’t be the assistant general manager for very long?”Edward was instantly enraged. “Nonsense!”Riley said coldly, “You shouldn’t say something like that even if you’re jealous of Edward being better than you, Chase.”“I’m jealous of him?” Chase laughed.“Aren’t you?”Riley was full of herself as she looked at Chase. There was a look of disgust on her face. “Edward is now the company’s assistant general manager despite his young age while you’re just a minor employee. What else could it be if you’re not jealous of him?”“Believe whatever you want. Trust me, the man you're so proud of will return to his true form very soon.”Chase did not even bother arguing with her and left after saying that.Riley’s phone suddenly rang. It was a call from Henry.After she hung up, she quickly called out to Chase and said, “Wait. My dad wants to talk to you.”Chase frowned and took the phone fr

    Raymond and Anna were gleeful at this idea.They knew that Edward was about to play Chase like a fool.There were two security guards dozing off at the parking entrance of Tangent Hotel.Chase stopped right at the entrance, but the boom barrier did not move. He pressed on the horn gently.The security guards jumped. They were about to curse out loud when they saw the little gold man on the Rolls-Royce. They immediately got to work and raised the boom barrier.Chase nodded thanks to both of them and drove into the parking lot.One of the security guards followed him inside and waited for Chase to park the car. He approached Chase to curry favor with him. “Do you need me to help you park the car, sir?”Chase wanted to reject the offer but Henry suddenly called him on the phone.“Thanks for the help.”Chase handed his keys over to the security guard and walked toward an elevator.“It’s no problem at all.”The security guard took the keys from him. He had met many rich men who w

    They were two to three meters apart, but Chase could sense how confident Yvette was.He turned to look at Henry and said, “Uncle Henry, what’s happening…”Henry smiled and said, “I asked you here today to introduce Whitney’s daughter, Yvette, to you. Young people would have more to chat among themselves. You should get to know each other.”Chase was rendered speechless.He thought Henry asked him here for something important.In the end, this was just a blind date?Chase said, “Uncle Henry, I need to go. There’s something I need to attend to…”He did not give Yvette a second glance at all.Whitney’s face fell when she heard his reply.That brat.What did he mean?The three of them had waited half the day for him and he was leaving the moment he arrived.Henry wanted to get him to stay, but Yvette spoke up, “Stop playing games like this to catch my attention. You need to know for yourself if you’re good enough to do that.”She looked at Chase with confidence and continued,

    Chase raised an eyebrow and said, “I said I don’t really drive. That doesn’t mean I don’t own a car. In fact, I’ve just gotten a Rolls-Royce Phantom from the car dealership.“As for having a house, it’s true that I don’t have one, but I do have a villa situated at No. 1, Imperial Dragon Bay.“For my savings, a hundred million is a little too low, isn’t it? I’m embarrassed to talk about anything lower than ten billion.”The look on Whitney's and her children’s faces changed.Rolls-Royce Phantom?Villa?Savings of ten billion?This guy was a rich man, after all.Whitney immediately became very friendly. She wanted to get better associated with Chase.That was when a sarcastic voice spoke from outside the door, “Stop boasting, Collins!”The next moment, Edward entered the room with Riley, Anna, and Raymond.“Riley, Edward, you’re finally here.” Henry gave them a look to hint at them to help get Chase and Yvette together.However, Edward pretended not to notice as he continued,

    Yet somehow, this guy endured the attack!"Could he be carrying some kind of treasure?" The man in black's eyes lit up at the thought. He burst into laughter and declared, "Hand over the treasure, and I'll spare your life!"Chase shook his head coldly. "You think you're worthy of owning my possessions?""You arrogant fool! Die!"As soon as the words left his mouth, the man in black leaped into the air, swinging his long blade with ferocious precision. A faint purple hue emanated from the blade. It was clearly a profound-grade martial technique.The blade's light wreaked havoc.Chase stood motionless as he raised his right hand. His fingernails extended, transforming into fierce, razor-sharp claws. A series of deafening clashes echoed through the air.Chase's fingertips deflected 18 consecutive strikes without sustaining a scratch."How is this possible?" The man in black's pupils shrank, and a deep sense of fear filled his heart. The guy's claws were as unyielding as magical ar

    "What did you say?!""Y-You dare do such a thing to us?!""I'm a direct disciple of the Secret Sect. If you dare insult me, you'll face eternal damnation—"Before the words were fully spoken, Chase flicked his finger, sending out a strand of sword energy that pierced the speaker's forehead.Two direct disciples of the Secret Sect dropped dead on the spot.Although Chase had not mastered any martial skills or divine abilities, he had acquired significant resources. It was more than enough to sustain his cultivation for several days.With a sharp exhale, Chase unleashed a stream of flames. The fire blazed fiercely, instantly consuming the two corpses until nothing remained.Chase then turned to leave. At that moment, he sensed danger.The wooden case strapped to his back popped open on its own. A pitch-black spear shot out from the case, hovering at his side with its tip pointed forward while gleaming menacingly. The spear traced an arc through the air, heading straight into the

    The remaining disciples of the Secret Sect recoiled. Their expressions turned pale as they quickly retreated from the area.They had grossly underestimated Chase's strength.Initially, they assumed he was a novice martial monarch with barely any skills. But now, after watching him effortlessly slay one of their peers, they realized the grave error in their judgment."Brothers, attack together and kill him now!" one of them shouted in desperation.The four remaining disciples immediately condensed their martial monarch aura, unleashing an explosive combined attack.A deafening roar echoed through the valley as thick smoke and debris filled the air.When the dust settled, their faces turned ashen. Chase stood unscathed despite their full-force attack, and not even a single strand of his hair was harmed."What is this guy? How did he withstand the full strength of five martial monarchs?""His cultivation… It looks like he broke through only recently!"The disciples exchanged hurr

    "Only Matias, who's at the peak of martial monarch, poses a significant threat," Chase mused. "Though he's an early-stage martial monarch in rank, his combat strength rivals late-stage or even perfect-stage martial monarchs. I'll need to go all out."With that thought, Chase retrieved a vial of pills and swallowed one before activating his true energy to quickly replenish his reserves. He sat cross-legged and shut his eyes, seemingly oblivious to his surroundings.In the distance, Matias' pupils contracted sharply.The aura Chase emitted suggested he had just entered the martial monarch realm, yet moments ago, this youth had effortlessly slain four peak martial monarch elders."No wonder he dares to claim treasures left by the Secret Sect," Matias muttered, his eyes narrowing dangerously. "He's got some tricks up his sleeve."Matias inhaled deeply as his gaze remained fixed on Chase, who was seated."Since I've encountered you, there's no escape. Today, I'll personally send you t

    Despite their combined strength, the black-robed elders barely managed to withstand Chase's onslaught for a short while before succumbing to the overwhelming force.Finally, one of the elders was torn apart by the relentless lightning, and his blood stained the valley.In that instant, a massive sword materialized, stretching 15 feet in length and emanating a blue-green radiance. Its blade, razor-sharp and dazzling, was etched with intertwining runes resembling a coiled dragon. The sword exuded an aura of immense killing intent.The sword tore through the air, chasing down the fleeing black-robed elders.The remaining elders were killed on the spot in several explosive impacts.Chase exhaled deeply, calming himself. "My training time is still too short. The progress on the soul-cultivating technique is slow, and advancing it to the second stage's perfected realm will take more time."Glancing at his hands, Chase noticed his skin had become translucent, resembling fine emeralds.

    "Hmph! He's just a mere insect, yet he dares to insult the dignity of the Secret Sect!" one elder sneered."If the fool seeks death, we'll grant it. Besides, the Secret Sect's forces will eventually arrive," another elder remarked coldly."Agreed. Let's send word to the sect's elders and summon reinforcements. We'll raze this town to the ground if anyone dares to interfere with the Secret Sect's authority. We'll kill them all!" the group of elders discussed among themselves.Their dismissive tone made it clear that they did not take the threat seriously. To them, no ordinary upstart could possibly challenge the might of the Secret Sect.Their sect was a revered martial sanctuary with deep roots and unmatched power within the northern wastelands. No sect dared provoke it.…The night draped the land in darkness, with only the pale moonlight illuminating the mountain paths. Chase sat cross-legged on a rooftop, silently circulating his martial energy.For nearly 15 minutes, he rema

    Chase lifted his foot and pressed it firmly against the old martial monarch's chest. "I've given you a sacred Healing Pill. Now, you'll answer whatever I ask truthfully."Before the man could respond, Chase crushed his kneecap with a sudden stomp. The sharp pain contorted his face into a mask of agony and elicited a bloodcurdling scream."You—" The old man gritted through his teeth."I know what you want to ask," Chase interrupted coldly. "But if you want answers, you'll follow my instructions. Do you understand?"His narrowed eyes carried a chilling threat. "You'd best cooperate. If you don't, I won't hesitate to throw you to the dogs."Not waiting for a reply, Chase turned his attention to the remaining martial monarch. His gaze was icy as he asked, "Now, tell me about the Secret Sect.""Wretched brat! Don't think you'll get anything out of me. Even if it costs my life, I'll never betray the sect!" the old martial monarch snarled as his expression twisted with defiance."Oh?"

    "Let me test if I can channel my spiritual power into it," Chase stated calmly.Soul force was the core strength of martial cultivation."No! If anything goes wrong, it could bring you severe harm!" the two martial monarchs quickly objected while shaking their heads. They had no intention of allowing Chase to risk himself."Relax. I'll be fine. It'll only take an instant, and if I sense anything amiss, I'll retreat immediately," Chase reassured them with a faint smile.Although his soul force was not particularly strong—barely enough to condense a single strand of soul sword energy—his resilient physique was powerful enough to handle its destructive potential.As long as he maintained control, Chase could detonate the soul sword energy at will, obliterating any threats to Myra."If you insist, then try it," one of the martial monarchs sighed while reluctantly nodding.With that, Chase stomped the ground and leaped into the air. His fists came together, encircled by faint white f

    "No worries, Myra. A mere Poison Pill is nothing. I've already figured out a solution," Chase said calmly."What? You…" Myra's eyes widened in disbelief. She was utterly shocked at Chase's claim of resolving such a perilous issue.Chase ignored her astonishment.At that moment, he raised his palm and activated his technique. Immediately, a surge of overwhelming energy erupted from his body, radiating like a blazing purple sun that illuminated the surroundings."This aura…""It's impossible…""This boy is a martial monarch-level expert!"The two martial monarchs from the Secret Sect were dumbstruck.They had assumed Chase's age to be no more than 18. However, his youth belied his extraordinary power, which far surpassed that of ordinary martial monarchs.Even more surprising was the woman standing beside him. Her silent presence alone radiated a unique brilliance that left them in awe. Such prodigies were exceedingly rare, even within the Secret Sect.However, Chase was far fr
