Chase was furious when Sonny snatched his spiritual crystal and announced that he was teaching Chase a lesson.“What a shameless old man you are!”He countered the palm attack with a punch.This punch easily beat Sonny back.Chase swung his hand and got back the fire gem from Sonny’s pocket.“You’re full of yourself, old man. Do that again and I’ll kill you!” Chase said when he saw Sonny struggling to stand up.That was when Enzo said, “Do you have any idea who this man is? He isn’t only well-respected in the stone gambling street, but he’s renowned in Bactria’s antiquing world. Mr. Shelman is a powerful man. "He was showing you respect by asking a price from you. How dare you hurt him? Do you still want to remain in Chitara in one piece?”“Is that why you brought him to me?” Chase asked Enzo.“What if I did? It’s because of Mr. Shelman that I’m able to be where I am today. He’s searching for something valuable as a birthday present for the patriarch of the Shelmans, and it’s
“It’s fine now that we’ve cleared the misunderstanding. I don’t have an invitation to the party even though I know it’s Master Chester’s birthday. I wonder if you might be able to help me get the invitation?” Chase took the opportunity to ask.“That’s no problem at all. You can just come along with me to the party!” Sonny agreed immediately to bring Chase along to the Shelman residence.“It’s settled then. As for this fire gem, it’s my birthday present to him. I’m afraid you might have to find another treasure of your own,” Chase replied cheekily before saying goodbye.Enzo had a chat with Sonny before catching up to Chase.While they were leaving, Enola burst out asking, “Why did you do that, Enzo?”“I’m doing this for the sake of the Langdons. You have no idea how powerful the Shelmans are in Chitara. They’re considered royalty here! Forget about it. You won’t understand it anyway. Stop asking so much. All you need to do is focus on being a celebrity!”A thought crossed Enzo’s
Chase's gaze flickered. He stepped forward and asked, "I wonder what else would the elderly gentleman like?""I see you have some fine things on you, lad," said the old man as he raised an eyebrow. His hand was already reaching toward Chase's chest.If it had been a woman touching Chase, he might have been somewhat happy about it. However, it was an old man caressing him now, which made the gesture both bizarre and odd.Chase quickly grasped the old man's wrist. The skin felt somewhat slack, with just bones beneath."May I know what you mean by this?" Chase pursed his lips and fixed his gaze on the old man.The old man suddenly chuckled. "In our bar, if you seek something, you must give something in return. How about leaving this item with me?"He pointed at a spot on Chase's chest, right where the fire crystal was nestled in his embrace."It seems you know what this is?"Once he released his hand, Chase felt a chill in his palm. After all, he was not holding a beautiful woman,
Kaden had pursued Enola before, but he lost interest after getting verbally thrashed by her. She was clearly in a bad mood, so why would he go over there to get snubbed by her again?"Well, if you're not going, then I will."Why on earth was he so fierce? The debauched man adjusted his clothing, sauntered over to Enola, and asked in a suave manner, "Pretty lady, may I invite you for a drink?"Enola raised her eyes to look at the person who had come over and squinted her eyes. Although Enola was drunk, she could still see the person in front of her. She spat out just a word, "Scram."As if he had not heard her, the debauched man simply took a seat next to her."Drinking alone is so boring. Isn't it better to have company?"After fumbling around on the table, Enola finally grabbed an empty bottle and raised it to smash it on the debauched man's head.However, her vision was blurry. It multiplied his image and made it impossible to pinpoint his exact location."Miss, have you had
There was a hotel adjacent to the bar.Enola slowly woke up. Touching the hotel's white sheets, she wondered where she was. She rolled over and jumped out of bed.As she looked around, she noticed a bathroom in the room. Someone was showering as there were sounds of water splashing coming from the inside.She remembered being at the bar drinking just moments ago. How did she end up here?She checked herself, relieved to find her clothes intact and nothing amiss. Enola breathed a sigh of relief and was about to leave.Just as she reached the door, the bathroom door opened, revealing Kaden with just a towel wrapped around his lower half. He was drying his wet hair as he said, "Where do you think you're going?""Kaden? It’s you—don't come any closer!" Enola turned and tried to pull the door handle.However, she was too slow. The person behind her had already rushed up and grabbed her. Suddenly, the world turned upside down, and she was thrown onto the bed.Like an angered little b
Chase was trampling on Kaden's dignity, and it was in front of the woman Kaden fancied too. He had planned to force himself on Enola. He believed that if he treated her well afterward, Enola might overlook it. Yet now, not only had his plan failed, but he had also been caught.He felt completely humiliated! No matter how much he struggled, he still couldn't free himself. Kaden breathed heavily through his nostrils, and his neck veins were bulging with rage."He almost took advantage of me just now." Enola spat on the ground. She still felt a little sick. She wanted nothing more than to leave and never see Kaden again, so she pulled Chase along. "Let's go.""Okay." Chase lifted his foot and walked away with Enola. They passed the back door of the bar again.This place was most definitely eerie, but Chase could not quite pinpoint why. The old bartender from earlier was now sitting on a broken stool with a wooden table in front of him."So, you found her?" the old man asked with co
"There are so many customers inside the bar. There's no need for them to bear witness to a bloodbath. This alley is much better as it's very secluded. I can guarantee no one will notice the quiet disappearance of two people," the old man threatened."How dare you?! Do you know who I am?" Enola suddenly jumped out. She then not only revealed her identity as a celebrity but also mentioned her connection to the Langdon family."So you'd better be sensible and not offend someone you shouldn't," she added."Oh?" The old man chuckled as if he had heard a funny joke. "Young lady, do I look like someone who hasn't met a celebrity before? You can tell that my bar is rather secretive, can't you?""That's..." Enola was speechless for a moment. As panic became evident in her eyes, she started stepping back. "Don't worry. Since you're from the Langdon family, of course, we won't touch you. But..." The old man's gaze suddenly shifted to Chase, and he smiled ominously."If this young man keeps
"So, did you call this old man here too?" Chase asked."Let him go now. It's not just between you two anymore; it's between you and the entire Chitara underworld!" Seeing that Chase had knocked down dozens of people, the old man also rose from his stool. He was ready to intervene."Old man, you should act your age and live out your years quietly. Getting involved in fighting and killing isn't advisable!" Seeing this, Chase kicked Dominic away from under his foot."Young man, just because you've learned a bit of fighting skills, you think you can act recklessly? Today, I'll show you your place in this world!"The old man leaped from where he stood. A dagger gleamed coldly in his hand, aiming straight for Chase.Clearly, the old man had the intention to kill.Seeing the old man's ruthless attack, Chase did not hold back, not even in front of Enola.He immediately shot out a sword aura from his fingertip."You're the one who should know your place!"With a blast of sword aura, Ch
Cyril approached Garth, who was lying on a stretcher on the floor. The crowd opened up a path for him. When he spoke, there was some sort of authority in his tone.Chase smiled and shook his head when he saw this. It looked like Cyril was the key to getting past this level. If things went according to plan, Cyril would soon cross paths with a notorious party. That would be the boss they had to defeat to get past the third level.Cyril opened his yellow bag while the crowd watched curiously. He took out a set of silver needles."That's quite a decent quality!" Willow could not help exclaiming.Medical and poison skills were similar. As a poison expert, Willow had pretty good medical skills. She could tell if a set of silver needles was good quality. Moreover, Cyril's technique was excellent. Willow could not help clapping.The passengers around her jumped at the noise."Why are you clapping when he hasn't even saved the patient?"A sleazy-looking man complained. His breath smelle
"Ms. Worthington, your grandfather has been suffering from this illness for years…"Lourde was not comforted at all by her comfort. He took off his glasses and wiped away his sweat. He began to tremble as he spoke."Don't worry. Everything will be fine. I hired Dr. Clef specially to treat my grandfather. Nothing will happen."The tall Tia Worthington was confident with the doctor's medical skills.Chase started to wonder about this. "If she has gotten a doctor to help her grandfather, why would the staff broadcast for help?"Willow and Walter realized the same thing when they heard Tia. However, they held back their thoughts when Chase said nothing.A young man of about 20 suddenly appeared. He was dressed simply and had a yellow bag on his back."Where's the patient? Let me have a look!" he yelled out.If he had taken time to dress up, he would have looked as handsome as Chase. As for his current situation, anyone who saw him thought that he was ordinary."Where did this bump
"Lastly, if I'm right about this, Carla should be here, but she's stuck on a random level. We'll definitely see her then.""Huh? Really?"Barnabas found this incredulous at first but later thought it made sense. Most importantly, he would not be able to convince the Supreme Elder otherwise even if he did not believe it. All Barnabas could do was agree.Sykes had an even more blunt personality. He would follow whatever the Supreme Elder said.The only thing Sykes cared about was finding a breakthrough to peak martial god.That was when he spoke up, "Should we go in now, Elder Ricky?""Go ahead."Ricky gave an exasperated reply and stepped into the teleportation door.Barnabas and Sykes looked at each other and followed suit.…On the third level of the Dark and Light Mineral Ore, Chase and the others appeared in a plane cabin. He was relieved at first. Chase channeled his vital energy and realized there was also a seal here, but it was a higher quality seal than before. It was
Both sects had always been at loggerheads over resources and power in the past. It was difficult to sort out the feud they had.However, things changed in this generation when Carla led her sect to the top to be on the same level as the Nefarious Deity Sect. She did it all with her own capabilities.The other sects in the nether realm were also hungering for an opportunity to move up their rankings, so both sects came to a temporary compromise.It was because of Carla's feelings for Fallon that the relationship of both sects improved slightly.Dominic and Ricky were elders from the older generation who had handed over their power to the next generation, which was why their fight was not as intense as before. However, they would still taunt and insult each other in every other form possible.When Dominic heard this rumor, he assumed that Fallon had Carla wrapped around his finger.In other words, the Nefarious Deity Sect would soon own the Evil Shadow Sect. He was particularly del
However, the Dark and Light Emeralds' quality was clearly better on the second level than on the first level.If the rumor about this place having nine levels were true, how much more powerful would the Dark and Light Emeralds on the ninth level be?As for Willow and her little gigolo, were they in a hurry to get to the next level because they knew a secret about the ninth level?Ricky's question made him think about this thoroughly.He was impressed.No wonder Ricky was a Supreme Elder. He had such acute observation."Do you mean to say that Willow is in a hurry to get to the ninth level?" he asked the question carefully."Haven't any of you explored the Dark and Light Mineral Ore?" Ricky frowned when he asked this."It's because the Dark and Light Emeralds we found here are only suitable for low-level cultivators, which is why…" Barnabas was embarrassed when he answered."All of you ignored the facts in front of you—the Dark and Light Emeralds, the teleportation doors, and t
Ricky had another thought. It seemed that Willow and the others were in a hurry to get through the teleportation doors. The locations they were sent to were different as well. There was no guarantee that they would arrive at the same place as Willow and the others. Besides that, every level seemed to become increasingly difficult.On the other hand, they had no idea how many levels there were after this. They did not know how many teleportation doors they had to go through.Ricky was hesitant as he looked at the teleportation door that was glowing mysteriously."Why aren't you going inside?" Dominic hurried his old nemesis when Ricky refused to budge."What do Willow and the others want by coming to this place?"Ricky was thoughtful and looked at Dominic to ask the question."What? How would I know? Let's just get this done with. Aren't we here to take the Dark and Light Emerald Lotus? Even if we can't get it, it's also worth it to take his skills and techniques. I'm estimating
"Kill them? No, no, no. I'd never dare do such a thing." The dark sorcerer quickly denied it. He thought that Barnabas and the others were Chase's family and friends when he saw the shocked looks on their faces.No one knew what might happen to him if they mistook him for their murderer."They aren't dead?"Ricky used his consciousness to sense the area. He used his vital energy to pick up the bones and rotting flesh from the ground for closer inspection.The remains looked like they had been there for years. There were also no signs of cultivation on them. Most of the bones and rotting flesh were from the corpses of common men.Dominic inspected them as well and came up with the same conclusion."Tsk… See how much you scared him, Ricky. You shouldn't be so sharp with your questions. Come here, my friend. Tell me where they went."Dominic said to Ricky sarcastically before putting on a friendly face to ask the dark sorcerer.The dark sorcerer looked at the big, plump man and fo
The dark sorcerer began to squirm like a long snake. He had thought the blade would be powerless against him. The dark sorcerer would counter-attack after that and summon the legendary Flame of Destruction to burn those three strange infiltrators to death.Unfortunately, things did not work out the way he planned.Greedy Wolf slashed him at the waist. The dark sorcerer was like a deflated balloon as his black robe fell to the ground. The black silk covering him fell as well, and black smoke wafted from it. His eyes were the only two bright spots left."How is this possible?"The black smoke's form was like the undead they had met before except it was not translucent and had a dark color. It was almost solid.The dark sorcerer's voice was not a sound that was heard in the air. Instead, it reverberated in the minds of Chase and the others.What kind of existence was he?Despite their astonishment, they were not too surprised. Besides the rotting zombie, the undead, the old hag, an
Willow could not let that happen. She forced herself to calm down while pushing it out of her sea of consciousness with great force. She became dizzy and felt like throwing up. It was a similar feeling to getting car sick.She bled from the nose. Her attempt at attacking the tower had caused some damage to her mind and soul."I can't do it. This tower can defend itself against consciousness trying to inspect it," Willow said breathlessly. "Give it up. I'm invincible here!" The dark shadow spoke up once more. Unlike before, his voice seemed to connect directly to everyone's minds.Chase felt a headache. This was only the second level and things had become complicated.He was suddenly impressed by the two people who got to level seven."Stop playing tricks, Dark Sorcerer, or I'll blow up your sorcerer's tower," Chase said grimly. He used the Passive Concentration Technique and the Light Deity Technique to broadcast his words.This dark sorcerer was inclined to use unorthodox te
