Chapter 80

Author: Shrimp in Trouble Waters
Before anyone let their imaginations run wild, the Quaids immediately released a statement claiming that they had nothing to do with both accidents. They also mentioned that Ferb Quaid had his limbs broken by a thug.

After releasing the statement, the Quaids took the opportunity of having all that attention to announce Arthur’s 70th birthday celebration.

It was nighttime at the Quaids' residence.

Arthur was looking darkly at Dean. “Useless bastard! You’re all useless! You can’t even take care of a girl and a good-for-nothing rascal!”

“Please don’t be mad, Mr. Arthur!”

Dean fell kneeling to the ground. He trembled while he said, “We utilized five men and two cars, but we didn’t expect all five of them to fail at their jobs.

“Fortunately, three of them fell off the cliff and died while another two were run over by a car. The Coopers and the Norrises have no evidence against us even if they suspect us…”

“Dad, I want to use the shadow guards against that Collins boy. He broke al

    Sam knelt heavily on the ground. “I deserve to be punished, sir. There seems to be some mistake with the information I received. I only found out today that besides the seven girls, there was another woman who survived the fire as well.“It seems like she had worked as a caretaker for Green Hills Orphanage back then and was in charge of the washing, cooking, and cleaning.”Chase felt hope in his heart. He quickly asked, “Is her name Julia? Julia Radley?”“Yes. That’s her name, Julia Radley.”Sam immediately nodded and said, “She survived the fire at the orphanage, but her face was burned. And it seems that she went crazy after that. She has been hidden away by the Quaids all these years at Oswald Sanatorium.”Chase was agitated upon learning the news.It was Julia Radley!He could never forget how Julia had treated the children like her own back when he was still at Green Hills Orphanage. She washed and cleaned for them for free and would even spend money to buy delicious snacks

    She spoke while knocking her head onto the ground. Her forehead started bleeding profusely.Chase raised an eyebrow. His tone became softer. “That’s enough. Get up. I promise to treat your father, but I need to get to work right now. Anything else will have to wait until I’m done with work.”“That sounds good.”Evelyn cried with joy as she stood up. “Thank you, Dr. Collins.”“This is my contact number. Please call me once you’re free. I’ll come to pick you up.”She gave him a name card respectfully before driving off.Chase soon arrived at La Fleur.The security guards informed Edward of his arrival the moment Chase stepped into the company.Edward hung up the call in his office, and a cold smile appeared on his face.From the moment Chase and Riley broke off their engagement, he had been itching to kick Chase out of the company.From his point of view, it was easy for a sales manager to handle a country bumpkin.Raymond, Anna, and the others looked forward to what was about

    Edward thought Chase had gotten scared when he saw him staying silently, and it only made Edward feel gleeful about it.“Everyone knows that Benson Group is the leading company when it comes to South River City’s luxury items. They have a strong influence in the market and own numerous physical stores.“The new cosmetics our company has just pushed out are not well received in the market, which is why we still have 500,000 sets left unsold in our inventory.”At this point, he sneered at Chase and said, “Your job is to get Benson Group to sell at least 50,000 sets of our new product.“I’m giving you three days, and if you don’t manage to sell 50,000 sets in three days, pack up and leave!”When Edward announced this, everyone looked at Chase either gleefully or sympathetically.This job was too difficult to accomplish, and it was almost impossible to get it done.They had tried to reach out to Benson Group before to promote the new cosmetics, but they ended up getting thrown out.

    “We’re having the treatment here?” Sherman was taken aback. He asked, “Dr. Collins, don’t you need a quiet space to prevent others from interrupting you?”“That’s not necessary.” Chase shook his head.“Do you need me to lie down?” Sherman asked again.“That’s not necessary either.”“Well… what do you need me to do?” Sherman was bewildered.“You just need to open your mouth.”Sherman got even more puzzled, but he opened his mouth as instructed.Chase took out a plastic bottle and shook out a dark, black pill from it.“Eat this and your congenital heart failure will be healed.”Sherman and Evelyn looked doubtful when they heard this.It was because they saw the bottle Chase was using to keep the pills. It had the words ‘Insecticide’ written on it.He was using a bottle that was used for insecticide to keep his pills? Was he not afraid of accidentally poisoning someone?Also, what was the thing he had taken out from it? It was so black, and it looked like someone might die fro

    Chase was not bothered to talk to him. He hung up and went straight to the office.Edward had arrived early at the office.He smiled widely after hanging up and immediately said to everyone, “Stop your work, everyone. We’ll be having a good show later.”“Is Chase here at the office, Edward?” Raymond immediately sniggered.“That’s right. He’s on his way here. I believe he'll be arriving soon,” Edward sneered. He could not wait as he said, “Remember to keep your eyes wide open. I’ll make sure to kick him out of the company in disgrace.”Raymond smiled while rubbing his hands. This made everyone laugh even louder.Edward instructed, “Anna, throw out all his things from his table.”Anna immediately went to Chase’s table and threw all of his belongings into a trash can.When Chase stepped into the office, he saw the trash can filled up with his things.His face fell, and he looked sharply at everyone. “Who did this?”Anna’s expression changed when he looked at her. She immediately

    Chase gave a taunting glance at Edward before taking out a document from his bag. He slammed it on the table.“That’s smart of you. You’ve already written your resignation letter.”Edward glanced at the document half-heartedly and smiled in disdain as he said, “I’m not accepting your resignation, though. You can’t resign. You have to be fired.”A cold smile appeared on Chase’s face. “I’m afraid you’re about to be disappointed. This isn’t my resignation. It’s the order form from Benson Group.”He paused before adding, “Benson Group wants to order all 500,000 sets of our cosmetics in one shot.”“What? Benson Group’s order form?”“500,000 sets?”The entire office turned silent instantly. Everyone was shocked, and they thought they had heard wrong.Even Edward was shocked.Someone suddenly burst out laughing. “500,000 sets? You really do know how to exaggerate, Chase Collins.”Riley stood up to look at Chase coldly. “When will you stop with your little tricks? We’re tired of li

    “How can a dirt-poor country bumpkin like you who has no capabilities or connections be able to get an order of 500,000 sets from Benson Group?”Riley sounded convincing and looked full of herself.Her words were like a reminder to Edward.She was right!Chase was just a country bumpkin. He would not have been able to get such a huge order.It made sense!He had faked the order form.Edward immediately looked at Chase with disdain and said, “You’re pretty brazen, aren’t you, Collins? You’ve even gone to the extent of faking an order form from Benson Group.”“Are you trying to worm your way out of the bet?” Chase narrowed his eyes at Edward.“What do you mean by that?”Edward was taken aback.“You said it yourself that you would kneel, knock your head on the ground, and call me ‘Granddaddy’ three times. I didn’t force you to make that bet.”Edward was furious when he heard that. “You want me to kneel to you? Who do you think you are, Collins?“Your order form is fake, and e

    After he left, Riley said, “Edward, call your uncle right now and tell him to fire Chase Collins.”She was filled with anger right now.Chase must have been jealous that she was with Edward, which was why he took revenge on him.“Alright, I’ll make the call right now.”Edward nodded and was about to call Harrison, the HR manager.That was when a plump middle-aged man in a suit came rushing in excitedly.“Mr. Crane!”Everyone was surprised to see him. They greeted him with the utmost respect.This man was the top brass of the sales department. He was the sales director, Gerald Crane.His nickname was Gerald the Brute, and he was known to be harsh and unsympathetic. Every employee in the sales department had been yelled at by him at least once. They were scared of him and did not like him.However, Gerald was acting differently than usual as he kept smiling. “Don’t be so formal with me. You’re all my favorite people right now.”Huh?Everyone was taken aback.What was happeni

    The blade contained powerful sword intent, and it sliced open a horrible wound on the Black Iron Demon Crocodile's belly. Blood gushed out from it.The crocodile roared furiously as it struggled. However, it could not escape as the blade had cut its veins, which immobilized it.Chase exhaled. He went forward and kicked the crocodile's head.A series of crisp cracks were heard before the crocodile ended up in a pool of blood. It was a horrifying sight.It was a martial nirvana beast, and even though it had been seriously hurt, it could still move. Chase did not dare waste any time. He took out some rope he had prepared earlier and wrung it around the crocodile's neck. He dragged it out of the underground palace."This Black Iron Demon Crocodile's body is massive. It must've consumed the blood essence of many human martial artists. I wonder what other surprises it has for me."Chase chuckled as he prepared to leave.However, that was when Chase paused in his footsteps and suddenly

    The sinister and moist aura became stronger. Chase could even detect the rotting stench of dead bodies in the aura."Could there be more than one dead body buried in this place?" Chase contemplated this, but it did not bother him too much as victory was the only thing crucial to him.He leaped into the dark. Chase would come to some crossroads along the way, but he chose to keep going straight. The path led him underground.He had stepped into the tunnel for less than 15 minutes when he caught the sound of fighting. It did not come from outside but from below.He was puzzled and quietly snuck over.There was a loud bang, which was followed by the clanging of weapons.A massive dark shadow was on all fours in the middle of the underground palace covered in rubble. It had four limbs and a huge head. It had terrifying teeth and sharp claws while its back was covered with dark scales.It was crouching, and its red eyes looked vicious and violent. It could lunge forward and eat some

    "Damn it!"Chase was enraged. He growled while madly absorbing the pure vitality and heaven and earth's spiritual energy from all around him.He sat down with great pain. He put his hands together to guide the vitality to condense it into lightning form.Purple lightning struck suddenly, tearing through the air and wrapping around the golden light.Chase's forehead was covered in sweat, and his entire body stiffened."This thing is tough to deal with. Why is it so hard to absorb it?" Chase clenched his teeth. The golden light contained incredibly powerful energy."I don't believe that you can take this."There was a cold look in Chase's eye. Thick veins throbbed all over him while limitless energy poured from within his body and into his hands. The energy gathered in his arms.The Might of Thunder and Lightning was an extremely powerful attack technique that was unbeatable.Chase was relieved to see the lightning and light vanish. Even though this was a powerful move, it exhau

    "It's a voodoo bug!"The look on Chase's face changed. He instantly realized what it was and quickly waved his arms to release a raging wave of strength that caused numerous trees around him to fall.A swarm of green bugs, with each the size of a thumb, emerged in hordes. They were like swarms of locusts that filled up every space in the air.Massive sword flashes instantly sliced through them, and the bugs were crushed to dust. However, Chase had disturbed other ferocious beasts laying low in the forest with this move.In an instant, piercing howls were heard.Various beasts and birds came lunging at him.Chase's expression turned dark. He formed into a shadow fragment as he dodged the attack of these animals.He did not choose to escape because he could sense many wild dark beasts in this area.Chase had to get used to being in battle mode.That was the only way he was able to get into the rhythm of fighting the enemy while slowly training himself to uncover a combat techniq

    The Sword Manual was extremely difficult to understand. Chase had spent close to two days on it before he could grasp the surface-level information it contained.He figured that it would take at least one month for him to be able to completely cultivate the first stance. As for the second and third stances, as well as the most powerful killing move, he did not dare to have much hope for now."I wonder if there are valuable medicinal herbs in this mountain range," Chase wondered.A sword flash brushed past suddenly, cutting off a huge chunk of a rock.Chase's eyes widened. He stopped and looked toward somewhere not far off.A dark, green venomous snake that was more than 20 feet long was slithering about, emanating a dangerous aura as it stared at Chase."A venomous dragon python?" A grim look appeared in Chase's eyes.The venomous dragon python was a rare snake-type ferocious beast. It was covered in lethal venom, and even a stage-four martial god would die instantly if he cam

    However, Chase was not about to let him get away. He went after Thorn while wielding his sword.The sword's blade sliced Thorn's skin, causing blood to splatter everywhere. He was once again seriously wounded, and the slash on his chest looked horrible.That was a vicious swing of the blade. It had destroyed Thorn's core, and his basic martial arts skills were gone."No! This isn't possible…!" Thorn was chilled to the core. He fell to the ground and was close to death. His eyes were wide with disbelief. He had never expected to lose to a human martial god.This was a great humiliation!"The Black Feather Guards will tear you apart and turn you to dust!" Thorn cursed at Chase with clenched teeth."Exotic races like you are pretty dumb." Chase shook his head. "If I'm killed, your people will die with me. There are many factors to consider in this world. You need to be aware of the consequences."Chase spoke unfeelingly. The next moment, he lifted his leg and kicked Thorn in the th

    "Scared? Haha!"Thorn threw back his head and laughed with a condescending look in his eye. "Human martial artists are nothing but ants. You only managed to obtain resources and heritage from what was left behind by your ancestors. It's because of mere inheritances that you think you're superior and know no fear. I'll teach you a lesson today about how weak humans are!"Chase grunted coldly, and the Thunder Sword appeared in his hand. Stepping forward, he lunged for the kill and swung his sword down.Weapons clashed, and sparks flew.Thorn's expression changed as he stumbled back a step. His arm was numb."The sword technique of a human is indeed exquisite. But such an unruly technique can only be used on low-level dark beasts. It won't be able to do anything to me." Thorn put his hands together, and a dark battle spear formed. The spear kept flashing with light like a venomous snake flicking its tongue.He moved quickly and lunged at Chase for the kill.The look in Chase's eye

    "You shouldn't have left the sect like that, Chloe. What if the elders punish you?""This is all because of me, Kara. If I didn't leave, you would've gotten into trouble too…""Don't be silly. You're my junior. I can't stand by and watch you die."The women's words caught Chase's attention."Huh? It's them…"He raised an eyebrow, not expecting them to be hiding deep inside the valley.However, Chase quickly realized something, and a glint flashed in his eyes. He quietly said to himself, "They're martial artists too! Even though they're only early-stage martial gods, they possess the Energy of Drago Tiger. They must have taken some spiritual herbs and refined them."These were no ordinary women. They had a powerful background, so it was not unusual for them to possess some treasures. After all, a martial god had a long lifespan. Common herbs that were easily found would not be able to fulfill their needs."I don't care how unhappy you are, reveal yourself right now," Chase said

    The lion's massive body flew off into the air.Chase lunged forward. His left hand was curved into a claw as he grabbed the lion's head. He pulled hard with his hand despite having a sword in his right.Blood splattered everywhere.Using sheer strength, he separated the lion's head from its body and flung it to the side.This caught the attention of many dark beasts that were martial gods."Huh? This human martial god looks really powerful. If we can get such a young elite to be our servant, we can make use of him for quite a while."Chase's slaughtering had crossed the line of most of these dark beasts.Powerful demon energy immediately burst from every corner of the valley. It gathered within the valley and formed into a dark chain of demon energy that came falling on Chase like a net to kill him.Chase swung the Purple Lightning Blade. The blade's flash exploded to every corner and destroyed the demon energy.There was a sharp look in Chase's eyes as he noticed something st
