Chapter 4

Penulis: Shrimp in Trouble Waters
“If that’s what you think, you can go ahead and buy what you need on your own.” Riley left after saying this coldly to Chase.

Chase shrugged and walked away to hail a taxi by the road. “Take me to Emgrand Group.”

Riley entered a Starbucks and sat down. The more she thought about it, the angrier she was. She took out her phone and sent a message to her chat group: [This sucks! This really sucks!]

There were only five people in the chat group, and they were all colleagues who got along with Riley.

It was not long before a woman named Anna Clayton replied to her message: [What’s wrong, Riley? Who upset you this time?]

[My dad found some random country bumpkin and made him my fiancé.] Riley finally found someone she could vent to.

[What?]

[Woah! Are you for real?]

The group chat immediately became active.

[Why would I lie to you?]

Riley typed angrily: [The worst thing about this is that my dad is making me get him a job at our company. My dad claims that it would be easier for him to protect me, and I can’t reject this at all.]

[It’s going to be fine, Riley.]

A man named Edward Wright replied: [Just leave this to me. I’ll make sure he’ll end up getting humiliated and keep his distance from you.]

[Hahaha! Since our dear Edward says so, that guy is about to have some very bad luck tomorrow.]

[That’s true. Everyone knows that Edward’s uncle is the HR manager of La Fleur. It will take only one word from Edward to stop that guy from stepping into our company.]

[Drama will ensue tomorrow.]

Everyone began discussing this heatedly.

Riley hesitated before replying: [Don’t go too far, Edward. Just give him a minor lesson that’s enough to make him back off.]

Edward replied: [Don’t worry, I know what to do.]

Riley looked happy after putting down her phone.

Tomorrow would be the day Riley showed him just how impossible it would be between them.

At Emgrand Group, a man in a suit with a stern expression was kneeling on one knee in front of Chase. “Greetings, sir.”

Anyone witnessing this scene would have been shocked.

That man’s name was Sam Collins. He was the head of Emgrand Group and was also known as the kingpin of South River City. He was the underworld kingpin of South River City. He could bring down the city with just a snap of his fingers.

“That’s enough, Sam. Stop with this formality.” Chase crossed his legs and said brusquely, “The old man told me to come here to see you before he died. Tell me, what other orders did he have for me?”

“Master told me to give something to you, sir.”

Sam had prepared the items, and he passed them to Chase. “This is the key to villa No. 1 at Imperial Dragon Bay. The villa is worth 500 million. Master had bought it for you a long time ago. It’s known as the best mansion in South River City. You can move in anytime.

“Also, this is the share transfer agreement for a subsidiary under my company. It’s not worth much, only ten billion. All you need is to sign here and this company will belong to you.”

Chase took the key from Sam and glanced at the contract. He realized that it was the shares of a cosmetic company called ‘La Fleur’.

After signing the agreement, Chase suddenly asked coldly, “Are there any updates for the investigation I requested?”

Sam said, “Sir, I found out that the fire at Green Hills Orphanage 12 years ago had something to do with the Quaids of South River City…”

Chase clenched his fists. A terrifying aura emanated from around him.

Murder!

He had the intent to murder!

    The first prince, Emery, had now become a spiritual form. Two soft, red lights glowed. Those were his eyes.Numerous demonic smokes billowed out of him as they wafted in the air. They looked harmless, but anyone who touched them would lose their minds and end up being controlled by them.The second prince, Zeno, was a Sky Demon giant who was hundreds of feet tall. His hands and feet were like hills. Ordinary martial divine emperors were no match for them.Every step he took caused numerous demonic lightning strikes. Anyone struck would immediately be burnt to a crisp.Three of them attacked and defended together. If one of them got hurt, all three of them would be hurt. If one of them attacked, all three of their strengths were used.They could even transfer demonic aura to each other to heal themselves.As long as not all of them die, any one of them could be resurrected and get into immediate action. It was a hard fight.Chase gave this some thought before instructing everyone

    While everyone discussed what was happening, the void suddenly tremored. Several black, demonic claws descended and aimed for everyone's heads. It came at them so quickly that only fragments of it could be seen. Demonic power reverberated in the air.Chase was alarmed. "How dare you?!"He quickly put his hands together in a mark. His body expanded more than ten times over. "Guard, Protect, Defend, Stand, Strong, Shield, Form, Before, Me!"Acala's mark appeared. It was the illusory figure of the Flame Dominance Star Lord."He was covered in flames. He looked up at the black, demonic claws in the sky, and his pair of hands turned into three pairs of hands. He reached out into the sky as his hands expanded, and he started fighting the demonic claws."Don't panic, Jasper! We're here to help you!" Emery, the first prince, shouted.Those demonic claws belonged to Jasper.It had only been a few months, and his powers had increased so exponentially. Chase was shocked.Several black fig

    "As the battle intensified as it prolonged, it became increasingly difficult to hide them from the Divine Order. It won't be long before the Divine Order finds them and sends them into reincarnation."Which is why…" Olivia explained."Alright. How do I get to the Elf Clan Holy Land?" Chase bit his lip as he asked.He had no idea that he had become an orphan because of this.His greatest wish since being brought up by his master was to find his parents and the seven sisters he grew up with.Chase had found six of his sisters and his parents. He had completed most of his life goals. He was feeling emotional about it."Don't be anxious. We were being tracked by the Sky Demon Lord when three of us were on our way here. We need to take a longer route to get to the Elf Clan Holy Land," Olivia said with a sigh."Oh, there you are! Jasper did not die in vain. We finally found you!" A voice that sounded quite like Jasper's was heard.Chase and the others turned to look. Three people who

    Just as everyone wanted to continue asking questions, three powerful auras were suddenly felt coming near them.Walter's cultivation level was only second to Chase's. When he sensed them, he quickly shouted, "A powerful enemy is attacking. Be prepared, everyone!" Everyone started to get nervous as they pulled out their weapons and channeled their techniques. They also put up their colorful vital energy protective fields right away.Chase released his consciousness to suss out whoever was coming. "Relax. They're our people." "What? Our people?" Willow, Lisa, and the others were puzzled.Chase had made no mention of such powerful friends in Boundless Spiritual Heaven. It ended up with them suffering in this place.Quinn, Mia, and Lyana's consciousness was not as powerful. They were unable to detect who the powerful auras belonged to.That was until Chase announced those were their people.They suddenly realized who they were. "Is it Kayla and the rest?" Mia asked in delight

    Three great balls of flame shot toward Jasper, the monster giant, to purify the evil in him. If things worked according to plan, Jasper would be heavily wounded.Giant explosions echoed in the air. Flames and smoke were everywhere.The attack had destroyed all the rocks and trees around them.Quinn and the others had put up their vital energy protective fields as they were informed by Walter in advance to do so. They were able to block the waves of the attack.They stood up to check the situation after the remnants of the explosion had settled down.A giant hole appeared in front of them. Sparks of flames could still be seen as small wisps of smoke wafted in the air.There was a terrible stench. Quinn and the others covered their noses."That monster giant must be dead by now," Mia said as she went forward to check the situation."Stop!" Lyana shouted."Why?" The others were puzzled.Before Lyana replied, a chilling wind was felt in the air. It made everyone's hair stand on i

    He was the main defense for the group, blocking the lightning that rained on them. Now, he was slumped forward, and his energy protective field was gone. Lightning rained down on them like a storm.Everyone fell to the ground as screams of pain echoed in the air.The giant from the Giant Spiritual Tribe was not affected. It stood up as it allowed the lightning to strike him. It was as if it did not feel any pain."Where is Chase Collins? Show yourself right now!" It had a deep voice, but Quinn found it familiar."Who are you?" That was when the lightning stopped. Mia found the voice familiar, just like Quinn did. She held back her pain as she asked the question."Oh, don't you know me anymore? Well, that's normal. Look at me now. It would be impossible to recognize me. I'm Jasper Voidheart, the fourth prince of the Great Emerald Empire. Wait, that's not right. I'm now the Fourth Duke. Hahaha!" He laughed as he revealed his identity.Fourth Prince?
