"Hoho! It's just two of us here. There's no problem with me calling you that!" Flynn smiled happily when he saw the shy look on her face. However, his smile pulled on the wound on his head, and he crouched to the ground in pain."Were you hit again? I told you to call the police! It's illegal for them to force us into relocating. We're moving soon too. I heard the Landle Enterprise has bought this entire street.""No, I'll handle my own problems. Do you think I'm not strong enough?"Flynn remembered that Constantine the Great would never beg others for help when he was in trouble. He would bulldoze forward and make sure he got things done on his own.Celeste frowned at his words."What are you saying? Do you think you can beat them all down? They're all vicious people. Stop being stubborn about this!" Celeste was the prettiest girl on the street. She was bright and beautiful, and many young men were attracted to her. However, she only treated Flynn well.This was the only thi
Celeste went off to cook while Flynn watched her go into the kitchen with a silly smile on his face.When he lowered his head, he was suddenly feeling troubled. The object he had used to smash Bald's head was that figurine.The top of the figurine had a crack now.That rich young man was coming in the evening to pick it up. It was too late for Flynn to make another one. Moreover, he did not have the material to make a second one. He was troubled at the thought of this.After he had his meal with Celeste and walked her home, it was getting near to the pickup time. What was he supposed to do?Flynn began to feel anxious.Chase watched this silently. Why was this guy such a blockhead?Did he not just receive the Forgework Heavenly Scribe?Chasenow had an understanding of it.The Forgework Heavenly Scribe's inscriptions could be used to repair various materials after one achieved stage one. The inscriptions were a technique that used spiritual energy.Cultivating stage one woul
Flynn respectfully brought the warrior figurine to the table."Is it useful?"The rich young man glanced at it and asked condescendingly."Of course, it is!" Flynn emphasized heavily. There was a powerful air about him when he spoke, and the group of men that came in were taken aback.Despite sounding confident, Flynn was not entirely sure."Would this be useful to find my girlfriend if she ran off?" the rich young man continued speaking haughtily."Sure!" Flynn replied with confidence. He sounded like he was all-knowing and had full gusto in his reply."Dang, you rascal. You're young, but you sound so sure of yourself!"The rich young man was amused. Even the bodyguards behind him laughed.Flynn did not even bat an eye at the question as he immediately guaranteed that this supernatural method was effective.Just then, the rich young man's phone rang."Hello? Fred? It's me, Linny. Something happened at home recently, and I had to leave without saying goodbye. I'm so sorry."
"Pray? Do you mean you want me to kneel?"Fred frowned."That's right.""Are you doing this on purpose?"Fred was enraged to hear that.The bodyguard's expression turned grim, and he looked like he was about to attack Flynn."Try it if you believe me. You can forget about it if you don't!"Flynn had made his decision and decided not to bother much with these two men.All he did was reply to them coldly.However, Fred had always held a high social status and could not do it. He thought about it and ordered his bodyguard, "Go! Kneel to that figurine!"The bodyguard was not happy about this, but he could not disobey the order. He gave it some thought and went to the figurine. Before he knelt, he turned back to Flynn to give him a warning."Remember, brat! If you dare trick us, I'll tear your head off!"Flynn ignored him. All he did was place the figurine on the table and check the inscription carved onto it."Great warrior, I admire you a lot, but if you're helping conmen lik
"Help! I'm convinced now!"That was when Flynn kicked Fred away from the pot in delight. Fred was saved from this 'harm'.After that, he laughed and said, "My figurine works. Do you believe me now?""I was just joking with you. What about my girlfriend? How about my father? Why did it only fulfill my third wish? I don't think it's as powerful as you claim it to be. I'm not wasting any more time with you. I'll take the figurine, but I'll pay you only if it works, understand?"Fred got up from the ground in a disheveled state. He was not being honest about this."Fine. Take it with you."Flynn did not care about Flynn's words and gave the figurine to him."Hmph! I'll be back tomorrow!"Fred grunted coldly and left with the figurine.Flynn watched him leave and did not stop him.…"Hey, why did your figurine crack further?"Fred returned early the next morning before Flynn had even opened his shop. He had brought along the same bodyguard from before.However, there were troub
Bald rushed in and took one look at Flynn, and his murderous intent flared up. However, when he noticed Fred and the bodyguards, he hesitated."Who the hell are you? You dare come buy things here? Are you looking to die too?"Flynn immediately grabbed the statue on the table, ready to bash Bald's head in. But when Fred saw his sacred statue being lifted, he quickly demanded, "What's going on?""What's going on? Who the hell are you? Don't you know this place is set for demolition? Get the hell out, or I'll beat you up too!"Bald, who was unaware of who Fred was, swung a slap at him."You son of a—"The bodyguard understood his boss' thoughts and was instantly furious. He stepped forward quickly and raised his hand, delivering a resounding slap that sent Bald sprawling to the floor. His face turned from red to blue in an instant.Bald now looked utterly disheveled.Seeing this, the other thugs hesitated momentarily and were about to charge. However, the bodyguard then barked at
"Spiritual energy! There's spiritual energy here. The project manager specifically instructed us to take this place," Bald finally confessed, but he quickly looked troubled. "But now it's all gone!"Fred was in a bind. Before last night, he would never have believed in this kind of thing, but now, he was not so sure. If there really was spiritual energy here, his father would definitely go to any lengths to acquire this place. Yet now, he needed help from the shop's owner, so Fred was unsure how to proceed.Seeing Fred's hesitation, Flynn was about to speak up. Just then, Chase's voice finally broke through.The voice was only audible to Flynn."Flynn, your grandfather is gone now, and your strength is still low. I suggest you take the demolition compensation, find a place to train, and return when you're stronger.""But what about the spiritual energy revival?" Flynn was not dumb. This was not the first time Chase had appeared, and Flynn had clearly grown accustomed to Chase's
"How was it, master? Are you satisfied?" Fred asked Flynn politely once the men had scrambled out."As long as the demolition goes smoothly, it's fine. This house was entrusted to us, after all. Not offering any demolition compensation would be disrespectful to the souls beneath the ground," Flynn replied, trying to sound profound.He felt a rush of satisfaction, though his words carried a hint of pretense. Inside, he thought, "This just feels amazing."Fred nodded thoughtfully at Flynn's words, then after a moment, he spoke up again, "Master, I called my girlfriend, and she agreed to talk with me. What should I do now?"Even asking Flynn about personal matters like this showed how much Fred trusted Flynn's guidance."Do you know where your girlfriend lives?" Flynn pondered for a moment before responding seriously."No, I don't.""Boss, our finance department has her ID information!" The bodyguard, quick-witted as ever, immediately remembered a useful lead."Oh, right!" Fred ex
Although there was no physical damage, the soul damage was very real. It was exactly that soul damage that allowed Chase to subdue Walter."Master, has the soul damage on your Greedy Wolf increased again?" Walter asked.Soul damage? How could a blade cause soul damage?Willow and Cyril were both stunned.With their current strength, neither of them had experienced it directly and had no idea that Greedy Wolf had already awakened a spirit—specifically, a star spirit aligned with slaughter.Hearing Walter's question, Chase suddenly recalled that the spirit within Greedy Wolf—Silly Husky—possessed astonishingly strong soul power.When they first met, it had disguised itself as a deadly blade spirit, radiating a terrifying killing intent that had completely fooled Chase.Fortunately, his own soul was resilient enough not to be tricked. He had eventually seen through Silly Husky's bluffing and recognized it as more bark than bite.Now, Chase wondered if Dominic could have been affec
Being the only one who had previously faced Chase's Greedy Wolf, Stone stood frozen in disbelief.He had always believed that as a stage-nine martial god, the gap between himself and Dominic, a peak martial god and an elder of the Nefarious Deity Sect, was merely half a step. Yet now, he had witnessed something that shattered his assumptions.His most powerful dark beast, the Crimson-Scaled Nether Serpent, was electrocuted to death in an instant. Then, even when he gave it everything he had and struck with Greedy Wolf, he still ended up at a disadvantage.Meanwhile, Dominic had taken on Chase's full three-pronged assault—including a direct strike from Greedy Wolf—with nothing but his bare skull and stood his ground.It was at that moment that Stone finally understood. The gap between him and Dominic was far larger than he had ever imagined.There was simply no comparison.He and Cherry had once considered challenging for the Supreme Elder title at the sect's year-end assembly, ho
This should be easy enough!"You brat! Dying at my hands is your greatest honor. Save your breath!" Dominic shouted as he launched the Nine Nefarious Holy Fist.His body swelled in size, his shirt bursting open to reveal muscles that were as hard as stone. They gleamed under the morning sun. The sight left Willow and Walter utterly stunned.An opponent who exploded out of his shirt right at the start? That was rare enough. However, to see a Supreme Elder doing it against a junior… Was this not a bit overkill?Facing him directly, Chase wore a serious expression. His consciousness detected an overwhelming vitality radiating from Dominic, so dense it even suppressed the aura of killing intent.After easily defeating Stone earlier, Chase's impression of the Nefarious Deity Sect had dropped a notch. He had thought that after so many rounds of body refinement and reinforcement by the Dark and Light Emerald Lotus, his physical strength should be at the top tier.Yet this Dominic, the s
The answer soon revealed itself.A sizzling noise rang out as the Crimson-Scaled Nether Serpent lunged at Chase with its jaws wide open, clearly intending to end his life in one bite.It thought to itself smugly, 'This fool is too slow. He's dead for sure.'However, to everyone's surprise, the serpent suddenly spasmed mid-air. Electric arcs danced across its scales as smoke began to rise from its body. Twitching uncontrollably, it looked like it had been struck by lightning. It fell straight to the ground like a thick rope within seconds, utterly limp.Stone stood there, dumbfounded.He had not expected his Crimson-Scaled Nether Serpent to be defeated so quickly. Sensing that the serpent was now truly and completely dead, his eyes flared with rage.Chase actually dared to kill his dark beast?!His expression turned grim. Black energy spirit surged from his body, and the demon-headed broadsword on his back gleamed with a menacing red light, eager to be unleashed. Even those nearb
Over the years, after being backstabbed by Ricky more times than he could count, Dominic had come to understand that when facing an unknown enemy, it was best to bide one's time and act cautiously."Stone, go test his strength," he ordered."Yes, sir," Stone replied.Dressed in a black robe, Stone rarely spoke, but his towering frame—nearly six foot five inches tall—and the massive demon-headed broadsword strapped to his back made it clear to anyone that he was not someone to mess with.Of course, there was no record of this person in Cyril's sect's registry either. The moment Cyril laid eyes on him, he knew this newcomer was a powerful force.He even considered warning Chase and the others to flee. However, seeing Chase step forward without the slightest hint of fear, he immediately understood that these people who were not listed must have come from a higher realm. He then silently shifted closer to Willow and Walter."Go ahead," Chase said calmly.Though his voice was not l
"I was originally at the martial god level, but after arriving in this world, my strength was suppressed down to martial monarch," Chase explained calmly."So... you came from a world where there's a higher realm?" Cyril was utterly shocked. The events of today had truly broadened his horizons.First, he was betrayed by a fellow outer disciple, then rescued by a stranger, who turned out to be a martial god!"You could say that," Chase replied, not willing to elaborate. After all, this world was only the third level of the Dark and Light Mineral Ore.Whether it was an illusion or a real world created by the Light Divine Pearl, no one could be sure. Everything would have to wait until they reached the ninth level of the defensive formation.Just then, a roaring sound came from the sky. They looked up to see three armed helicopters circling overhead."This is the ground unit. You're surrounded. Raise your hands and surrender immediately, or else—"Before the voice could finish, Cha
After carefully studying the appearances of the three, Cyril sifted through his memory.Before descending the mountain, his nine mentors had compiled a list of the strongest individuals in the current world. It included rankings in combat ability, strategy, physical strength, medical skill, and other crucial categories—listing the top 300 names.Yet he could not find any entry that matched these three people standing before him.That puzzled him greatly. Based on the data his mentors gave him, they had basically covered every top-tier power in the world. For these three to be so powerful and yet completely unrecorded… was hard to believe.After a moment of hesitation, he spoke solemnly. "I'm Cyril Stent, a disciple of the Miracle Doctor Sect. I came down the mountain on my mentors' orders."I didn't expect to run into this mess and drag you all into danger. I truly apologize. As the saying goes, each kind deed should be repaid. If you ever run into any trouble in the future, just
"Alright, go ahead," Chase said, noticing Willow's eagerness.After all, throughout their journey, she had spent most of her time being a burden. She probably felt bad about it.Now that she finally had a chance to contribute, of course, she wanted to prove herself—not just to them but to herself. What she did not know was that Chase was also highly skilled in medicine.Willow activated her cultivation technique, her eyes glowing violet. This was the Purple Shadow Divine Eyes, a secret technique from the Evil Shadow Sect's Great Impermanence Mystical Shadow Technique.It allowed her to perceive the flow of various extraordinary energies—vital energy, spiritual energy, sick energy, vitality, ghost energy, and more.At this moment, within her field of vision, Cyril's meridians appeared as clearly as if under an X-ray.She suddenly cried out, shutting her eyes tightly as if they were being scorched."What's wrong?" Walter and Chase asked at the same time.Chase quickly focused h
This thing… Was it not the Nine-Sea Giant Squid?Had it reincarnated?What mattered more was that Chase was currently only at the martial monarch level. Now that they were inside a plane, if things escalated even a little, the aircraft would definitely explode. Yet on the other hand, their flying abilities were restricted at the moment, so they were essentially just waiting to die.Chase immediately found himself in a dilemma.While he hesitated, Klondike—also known as the Nine-Sea Giant Squid—extended three or four more tentacles, wrapping them tightly around Cyril. It looked like it was about to stuff him into its mouth. There was no choice. Chase had to go all in.Chase activated the Passive Concentration Technique. On one hand, it hid his spiritual presence from detection, and on the other, it launched a direct soul attack against Mia's group and the Nine-Sea Giant Squid.Then, Greedy Wolf struck.Now that he had reached the martial monarch realm, Chase could control it wi
