John was immediately put in handcuffs after that.

He began to struggle violently and roared, “What’s this? What are you doing? Explain yourself, Chief Levenson! The Harrigans won’t let you off for this.”

The Harrigans' bodyguards surrounded them when they saw their patriarch arrested.

“What are you doing?”

Hector grunted coldly and said, “Mr. Harrigan, I’ve already looked into this. Your son was beaten up because he harassed someone else’s wife, but you’re insisting that it isn't his fault.”

“Even if my son did something wrong, he doesn’t deserve to be beaten up so badly,” John said resentfully.

“I don’t want to waste time arguing with you about this,” Hector interrupted him coldly. “Either you come with me to the station or both parties come to a settlement and you leave with your men right now.”

The look on John’s face changed. He could only clench his teeth and say, “Fine. We’ll come to a settlement on this.”

Despite his promise, John still wanted to tear Chase apart.

    Meanwhile, there was a warm and happy atmosphere in the room on the second floor of the Coopers’ villa.Suggestive noises were heard coming from the room.“Look at me, Quinn. Are my boobs smaller than before?”“Nope.”“Really? Why do I feel that they’re smaller? Although, it looks like yours have become bigger. Tell me the truth. Did your boobs become bigger from being nurtured by a lot of lovin'?”“Stop playing around, Bianca. I’m really worried.”Quinn pushed away Bianca’s naughty hands as she frowned. She kept walking around the door with a worried look“Are you worried that something will happen to Mr. Collins?” Bianca asked with a smile.“I am. We’ve been upstairs for quite a while, but I can’t hear anything happening downstairs…” Quinn replied worriedly.“Don’t worry. Nothing will happen to Mr. Collins. After all, he’s…” Bianca said brusquely.Before she could finish, someone knocked on the door, and Chase’s voice was heard saying, “We should head home, Quinn.”Quinn’s

    At La Fleur, Raymond immediately asked the moment Edward hung up, “What did he say, Edward?”“He said he’ll come to the office right now,” Edward replied with a sneer.“Haha. Great. I can’t wait to see the expression on his face,” Raymond was gleeful about this.He was not the only one. Even Anna and Riley were looking forward to it.Edward grunted coldly and said, “Just watch. I’ll teach that bumpkin a proper lesson.”He felt humiliated at the memory of Chase making him kneel the night before. He could not wait to regain his dignity in front of Chase.Edward’s phone suddenly rang. The call was from Whitney. “Edward, I’m at the door of your company along with Yvie and Ted.”He replied, “Alright. Wait for me in the company’s meeting room. The human resource manager will be interviewing them. I’ve already informed him about you guys.”“That’s great. Thank you, Edward. I’ll make sure to remember your help.”Whitney said this gleefully and hung up.Her son, Ted, immediately asked

    Chase shrugged. He did not want to waste time with them and he went straight into the office.That was when Sandy called him on the phone. “Are you at the company, Mr. Collins?”“I am. What’s wrong?” Chase asked.Sandy quickly said, “We’ve recently found you some suitable candidates as your driver and secretary. Do you want to interview them personally?”Chase was about to let Sandy make the decision when he suddenly remembered Whitney, Yvette, and Ted.He asked, “When does the interview start?”“We can begin the interview immediately. They’re already here at the company. The interview location is in the meeting room,” Sandy said.“Alright. I’ll go over immediately.”Chase nodded and turned to walk into the washroom.As Edward had already informed the company about Yvette and Ted being there for the interview, both of them were led directly into the meeting room.The employee in charge of the interview received a call and suddenly said, “Please hold on. Our CEO will be here t

    It was Chase.When he scanned the meeting room, he spotted Yvette and Ted sitting upright and still.It was them.At that moment, Chase touched his nose with a shocked look.“Chase?”When Yvette and Ted saw Chase, their eyes widened in shock.“Damn it, why did he follow us in here? He’s like a pesky fly.”Ted’s expression changed as he growled, “He must be mad that we scolded him just now, so he came here to cause trouble.”“Ted, what should we do?” Yvette was nervous.They had prepared for so long for the interview today.They would be so regretful if Chase ruined it for them.“Don’t worry, I’ll kick this kid out.” Ted gritted his teeth and walked toward Chase.Blocking Chase, he asked with a dark expression, “Collins, why are you here?”“I’m interviewing you,” Chase replied.“You?”Ted scoffed. “Who do you think you are? You’re not qualified to interview us.“I think you’re just here to cause trouble. If you’re smart, you should get lost right now or I won’t spare you

    Silas yelped in pain and took out his phone to call the head of security, Barrett. “Mr. Carlton, someone’s making a scene at the company. Come over with your men right now!“Yes, the meeting room.”After he hung up, Silas looked at Chase coldly, “I’ve called security. It’s over for you!”“Oh yeah? I’ll wait.” Chase let go of him and sat down indifferently.“Collins, how dare you hit Silas? You’re in trouble now!” Yvette chuckled in schadenfreude.Ted also smiled maliciously. “You loser. Don’t think I don’t know what you’re thinking. You must be thinking that since you’re going to get fired anyway, you should just go all out.“But I’m not scared of you. Silas can be our witness when Mr. Collins gets here later.“Do you think we’ll fail the interview after you make a scene? How preposterous.”“Ted is right.” Silas nodded. “Don’t worry, I’ll be your witness when Mr. Collins gets here later.”…After Barrett hung up the call in the security office, he waved his hand and called ou

    When Ted and Yvette saw that, they were stunned.Did they hear him correctly? Did he just call Chase 'Mr. Collins'?Silas was stunned. Then, he roared, “Mr. Carlton, what are you doing? That kid isn't…”“Shut the hell up!” Barrett roared at him. At this moment, he wanted to chop Silas into pieces. “You blind fool! This is our CEO, Mr. Collins! How dare you insult him?!”Silas heard an explosion going off in his head. He was completely petrified.‘That kid is Mr. Collins! How is that possible?’ he wondered to himself.Then, his face turned pale because Barrett would not have made a mistake. If that were the case, did this not mean Silas’ career was over?“No! No way!”Suddenly, Yvette shrieked, “How is he Mr. Collins? I don’t believe you!”At this moment, her features were contorted, and she was howling like a ghoul.The poor guy she looked down on was actually the CEO of a listed company.This realization felt like a heavy strike to her chest. Her heart was about to break in

    This was not over yet. Sandy lifted her head to look at Yvette and Ted before saying, “I’m officially declaring that you’ve failed your interview. From now on, you’ll be blacklisted by us, never to be hired by La Fleur!" Yvette and Ted shuddered, their faces filled with remorse.“Kick them out!”With a wave of her hand, Sandy turned to leave.Barrett smirked coldly as he looked at Silas, Ted, and Yvette. Then, he waved his hand and ordered, “Kick these three idiots out!”The bodyguards behind him rushed over and carried the three out.…This was the first time Chase was entering his CEO's office in La Fleur. He nodded in satisfaction as he walked to the floor-to-ceiling windows to look at the view.He had to admit that La Fleur had chosen an amazing location. Even though this was the city center where every inch of land was extremely precious, he could still have a vast view of the river from a distance.At this moment, someone knocked on his door.“Come in.” Chase sat down.

    At the entrance to La Fleur, a small commotion was taking place.“Madam, you can't enter our company. We hope to seek your understanding for this."The security guards stopped Whitney as they explained non-stop.Whitney placed her hands on her hips, shouting angrily, “You’re just a bunch of guard dogs! How dare you stop me from going in?“I’m not afraid to tell you that I know the assistant general manager, Edward Wright!“When I see him, I’ll report you all to him so that you’ll get fired!”After she said that, the security guards’ faces fell.The leader said carefully, “Y-You know Mr. Wright?”“Yeah!”Whitney chuckled arrogantly. “Not only that but my daughter and son are going to be the secretary and driver of your CEO.“If you dare to treat me like this, don't dream of me sparing you in the future!”The security guards were scared, so they quickly switched from arrogance to deference. “Madam, it’s all a misunderstanding. You can go in now.”Whitney became even more arro

    Time slowly passed.Three hours later, a muffled sound resonated as the energy in Chase's body surged dramatically. His cultivation had advanced to the next stage of the martial monarch realm, and his vitality was brimming with unmatched strength."I've finally reached this stage of the martial monarch realm!"He exhaled deeply and stood up.After stabilizing his current progress, he resumed alchemy, intending to take advantage of his momentum to refine three more Spirit Gathering Pills.Half an hour later, the pills were complete.Chase swallowed one without hesitation. A surge of potent medicinal energy coursed through his body, refining his flesh and bones.A guttural growl escaped him as his pores opened, expelling impurities from his body like a coiling serpent. As time went on, the energy around Chase gradually stabilized, and his complexion regained its healthy glow."Phew... It's finally done," Chase murmured in relief. He then carefully stored the remaining two pills.

    "The rarer the spiritual herb, the greater its potency. For refining a Spirit Gathering Pill, the primary ingredient is the Three-Striped Purple Sun Herb. In addition to that, six supplementary herbs are needed. If I gather them all, it should be enough," Chase mused before forming a plan."My body has been tempered to a considerable degree. Refining a batch of Spirit Gathering Pills shouldn't pose much of a problem," he said with a confident smile.'Alchemy is indeed effective, but the mental energy it consumes is enormous. At my current state, I can refine, at most, five pills a day. Still, even five Spirit Gathering Pills a day is an incredible fortune,' Chase thought with satisfaction.With that in mind, he sat cross-legged, retrieved his pill furnace and the required herbs, and followed the instructions in the Emperor's Alchemy Codex to begin refining.Everything went smoothly.In just a short while, a perfectly round and glistening Spirit Gathering Pill was produced."This

    Moments later, silence settled over the area.Chase rose from the ground and dusted himself off."Huh? Did I just break through?"He suddenly realized that his strength had increased yet again. The sensation was peculiar but unmistakable—his cultivation had advanced to another level.'No matter. I need to leave first,' he thought.Chase turned and began to walk away. Just as he was about to leave, he stopped abruptly."Hmm?" His brows furrowed together as he detected an unusual fluctuation in the surrounding energy. He paused, tilting his head and focusing his senses.After a moment, he opened his eyes and smirked coldly. Through his heightened perception, he had noticed someone—a small fry—spying on him."Haha, you little brat, I've finally caught you!"A sinister laugh echoed, and a man dressed in black battle attire emerged. His expression was twisted with rage.Meanwhile, his eyes locked onto Chase, and they were brimming with killing intent."You killed my senior, Kit L

    A sharp burst of sword energy tore through the air, instantly shattering the purple fire meteor and continuing its relentless trajectory toward the elder."Impossible!" The elder's face twisted in terror.Chase's strike had not only destroyed the fire meteor but also left the elder defenseless against its force. Did this mean he could not even withstand a single move from Chase?"Impressive. A late-stage martial monarch like you truly lives up to your reputation," Chase remarked while nodding slightly. However, this time felt different from his previous battles.During his clash with the Lacroix family, he had been forced to his limits, relying on forbidden techniques and risking his life to achieve victory.Yet now, as Chase unleashed his full power, he felt the energy within his core surging like an unstoppable river, faster and more refined than ever before.His core had evolved into an energy pool, and his body was tempered and strengthened. Every fiber of his being pulsed wi

    Suddenly, the void rippled as if disturbed by waves. Two large doors materialized and slowly opened. A hunched old man in gray robes stepped out from within, leaning on a cane. His presence exuded an air of ancient decay and twilight.Chase's gaze sharpened as he observed the elder."A stage-nine martial monarch," Chase murmured, his tone laced with surprise.The elder's appearance puzzled Chase. He had no recollection of this figure, only a faint impression of his withered and sunken face."Youth is a precious gift. To reach the early martial monarch stage at such a young age is extraordinary. If you're willing, join me, and I'll accept you as my disciple," the elder said as his gentle eyes rested on Chase.The elder's voice was calm and reassuring, as though he had long been acquainted with Chase."Apologies, but I'm not interested in joining any sect or faction," Chase replied flatly.Martial deity-level opponents did not concern him; he could fight them head-on. However, m

    Blood sprayed through the air, painting it red. The man let out a pained scream as he staggered backward.However, Chase gave him no chance to escape. With Phantom Nine Steps, Chase closed the gap instantly. Swinging his left hand, he released the Slay Immortal Blade, which arced gracefully through the air.Blood erupted as the blade sliced clean through the man's neck. His head flew into the air, spinning before crashing to the ground.Chase extended his tongue and licked his finger, his cold, indifferent gaze locked on the lifeless body."Did you really think I'd be easy to bully?" he muttered.Without sparing another glance, Chase stepped forward.Along his path, corpses littered the ground—each one belonging to Secret Sect elders or martial masters. They were all killed with a single, decisive strike.Chase moved with ruthless efficiency, and his strikes were swift and lethal. Before long, he reached the vicinity of the library.His piercing gaze seemed to cut through all o

    "Additionally, this Secret Sect Library contains numerous precious texts, including manuals on artifact refinement, alchemy, swordsmanship, and even divine martial arts techniques," the old woman explained slowly. "These are the very foundations that sustain a martial sect's existence."'So, that's it! No wonder the people of the Secret Sect are so eager to target me!' Chase realized.Martial techniques, divine abilities, cultivation methods, treasures—Secret Sect disciples who lacked talent could only choose techniques suited to their abilities, limiting their progress to higher levels of cultivation.Only through great fortune or direct inheritance could one hope to obtain advanced techniques and divine abilities. The Secret Sect was structured around this principle, fully aware of the limitations of their methods."You Secret Sect people are far too greedy, daring to set your sights on me!" Chase's anger surged.The sheer value of these cultivation texts was unimaginable. A sin

    "Get lost!" Chase shouted coldly, his arm muscles bulging as he swung his hand fiercely. With a single slap, he sent several Secret Sect elders flying with blood spraying through the air.The onlookers were stunned, and their expressions were filled with disbelief.Those elders were supposed to be top experts of the Secret Sect, yet they crumbled like paper dolls under Chase's casual blow. Even their bodies were half-destroyed."How annoying," Chase muttered while furrowing his brow.He had not failed to notice the subtle energy fluctuations in the area as he pursued his targets. It seemed these individuals had planned an ambush, but Chase detected them in advance and used the opportunity to trace them back to the Secret Sect itself."Sir, please follow me. The sect master wishes to speak with you," the old woman said, bowing respectfully."Oh? What does he want?" Chase asked in a skeptical tone as he grew more cautious. Something about the situation felt off, and he suspected th

    Chase glanced at him coldly, then casually struck out with a palm. A purple dragon shadow materialized, transforming into a ferocious dragon-headed handprint that obliterated the man on the spot, leaving nothing behind.Gasps of horror rippled through the crowd.The sheer power of the technique was terrifying, like something out of a nightmare. The remaining onlookers trembled uncontrollably, their hair standing on end.This was supposed to be the Secret Sect's strongest defense, yet it had been destroyed effortlessly. At that moment, they fully understood what kind of monstrous enemy they had provoked."My friend, perhaps we can talk this through," came an aged voice that was calm yet deliberate.An elderly woman emerged from the depths of the Secret Sect. Her hair was white, her frame hunched, and she leaned on a cane, appearing frail and close to the end of her days.Despite her unassuming appearance, her slightly clouded eyes radiated wisdom, as though she could see through t
