As the gavel slamming was heard, the 100-year-old Sinomenium finally belonged to Fane.A beautiful female server sent the Sinomenium to Fane and brought him to the counter for payment.After they paid, a man walked toward Fane and his company. “Sir, the person in charge of this auction house sent me to inquire: Do you need anybody to escort you out? If you’re from another city, we’ll take you safely out of this city. Don’t worry; we can still protect your safety when you’re in this city.”It was obvious that the auction house owner also knew that somebody who could simply come up with two billion for an auction was no average person.Apart from that, it would affect the auction house’s reputation if anything happened to Fane and the others.“Haha… Thank you for your kind gestures, but tell your boss that there’s no need for that. Leaving this city won’t be as difficult, in my opinion.” Fane laughed and rejected the man. He promised to help Shirley tomorrow, thus leaving the city w
“Lucky?” Fane smirked when he heard what the men said. “I need to tell you guys this: be smart and walk away. All three of us are people you can’t afford to cross.”“Pfft!” The people standing opposite them started laughing when they heard this.“Hahaha! Young man, have you even asked around who Brother Tiger is? He’s a member of the Green Dragon Clan and one of the important subordinates to our clan master. Who in this city doesn’t know what happens when you anger the Green Dragon Clan? You’re acting funny when you try to threaten Brother Tiger. Do you think threats would budge Brother Tiger?” The muscular man laughed loudly as if he heard the funniest joke in the world.“Young man, I can understand your feelings right now. You know that you’re done for, so you pretend to be unpredictable so we’d back down and leave, am I right?” Brother Mountain grinned. “Sadly, these tricks won’t work on us! It’s already too late, even if you obediently hand over the hundred-year-old Sinomenium t
People were baffled by what they saw. Some of them originally pitied Fane and the others, thinking they were done for.Nobody expected they could kill Mountain Tiger and the others within a few moves. They were so strong and did not hesitate to take action.“Let’s go. They’re all just trash.” Fane smiled coldly as he looked at the bodies on the floor. He quickly left with the others....“Bad news… Bad news! Master, Brother Tiger has been killed!” Not long after, a member of the Green Dragon Clan hurried back to the Green Dragon Clan.“What?!” The Green Dragon Clan master and the others were surprised when they heard this. They immediately enquired about what happened and later learned that the group was killed because they got into a fight with others after a round of bidding at the auction house.“F*ck! How dare they kill members of our Green Dragon Clan?! Find out what happened, and you have to find out who those three are!” The Green Dragon Clan master was so angry that his f
“What logic is that, Shirley? That guy must be lying to you. The Norton family is a second-class aristocratic family! Why would he offend such a powerful family because of you? Apart from that, there’s only three of them!” Xavien was taken aback when he heard what Shirley had to say, his eyes filled with disbelief. He did not believe that a man who met his daughter for the first time would offend such a powerful family for her sake.Apart from that, he said that he would wipe out an entire powerful family. How powerful would he have to be to do that?“Father, don’t you worry—he won’t lie to me. Ah, sad that he’s not interested in me, or I would’ve married him.” The corners of Shirley’s mouth slightly curled upward into a smile when she thought about Fane’s power, how they met, and his handsome face.Xavien’s eyes widened, completely stunned on the spot.Wilton had pursued Shirley for so many years, but she had always ignored him like the other young rich masters.All of a sudden,
Shirley turned around and looked at the wedding dress before saying, “I think he’s on his way to the hotel. Alright, I’ll wear this, but I’ll definitely not marry that bastard Wilton Norton!” She took the wedding dress and went back to her room angrily after she spoke.Xavien then turned toward the makeup artists next to them and ordered, “Go do her makeup.”Unable to hold back her worry, Alba spoke, obviously still hopeful, “Honey, do you think that Fane guy will really come and rescue our daughter?” She hoped someone could truly save her daughter.“Sigh! It’s not that easy, so it’s best if you don’t count your chickens before they hatch. That guy met our daughter at the airport the other day. We can’t take the words of somebody like this seriously. Apart from that, he wouldn’t be able to do anything even if he really comes over. Come on, let’s go down...” Xavien sighed and went downstairs with Alba.When Shirley came downstairs, Wilton was already waiting at the entrance.Wilt
Wilton released Shirley when he saw Xavien submitting to him and smiled. “Haha! Father-in-law, I was just joking with you guys. Look at how scared you guys are! Don’t worry—I’ll treat Shirley well after she marries me. She’s got a weird temper, but I’ll train her to be obedient. She’ll definitely obey me in the future.”Wilton’s words bled Xavien and Alba’s hearts. If they were still hopeful toward Wilton previously, they were in complete despair at that moment. They knew that Wilton would not treat their daughter well.“Let’s go. The wedding cars are ready, and it’s almost time for our beautiful bride to appear to the crowd!” Wilton had a triumphant smile on his face when he saw how effective his power displaying actions were. He pulled Shirley toward the cars with one hand.“Let’s go.” Alba and the others secretly sighed as they tried to smile. The Lancasters followed and boarded the car....Many people awaited the bride and groom in a six-star hotel.Apart from the Norton fam
Shirley’s fearlessness in standing her ground shocked Wilton.Though, after a moment of silence, Wilton laughed loudly. “Hahaha! What nonsense is that, Shirley? Are you trying to say that your so-called boyfriend didn’t run and he’s daring enough to come and stop the wedding?”Shirley’s words struck the masses as a joke as well. The Norton family was an actual second-class aristocratic family. How powerful a person needed to be if he wanted to stop the wedding?Apart from that, there was a seven-star King of War with them, and he had a great relationship with the Norton family.“Haha…! Let them come. If somebody dared stop the wedding, let them come!” The seven-star King of War started laughing loudly when he heard this. “Let’s not talk about the Norton family’s masters. Nobody would dare act out with me here, right?”“Haha… We’re rest assured with what Elder Lafoy had said!” Todd started laughing loudly when he heard this.At that moment, however… “Really?” Two men and a woman a
The Norton family’s masters had frightening expressions on their faces while they surrounded Fane and the two others.“Well, it seems like the Nortons got a death wish—can’t do anything about that. Never thought I’d be in a big fight before I leave Soul City today!” The corners of Fane’s mouth curled into a soft cold smile as he faced his attackers boldly.Bang! Slam! Pow!As the enemies were attacking, Fane and the others immediately moved. They were so quick that many failed to see what was happening. The so-called Norton family’s masters directly flew outward from the attack.They flew backward like kites with broken strings. They were killed on the spot when they landed on the floor.“W—What?! They’re actually…” Wilton’s face turned pale when the outcome was revealed. He had a darkened expression on his face as he had no idea that these Norton family’s masters would be so vulnerable.“Attack! All of you, attack!” ordered Todd in his shock. “Norton family bodyguards, attack! T
There was a heavy rumbling as the door slowly opened. A boundless sense of energy seemed to come from it.A few of them looked inside. Other than the green light, they could see nothing. The light completely obscured their sight. If they wanted to look inside, they would have to step in themselves.On the way there, Fane had already talked to Lourain about it. Lourain wanted to see what the legendary Valley of Enlightenment was like. That was why Fane asked for two spots.The three of them exchanged looks with each other, and they did not hesitate to step forward together, entering the door.The power of distorting space suddenly pulled the three of them in. The space around them started to spin rapidly. They did not know how much time passed, but it felt like a whole century before the space slowed down in front of them. Then, the sense of weightlessness disappeared as their feet landed on solid ground.The three of them had not been sent to different locations and arrived at the
Zayne scoffed, "Alright then, how do you want to work together?"He wanted to see what Fane was trying to do.Fane did not waste any time, "Both of us have all three keys, and we can open the door. Ten people can enter the door anyway. I just need two of those spots.Zayne looked at Fane meaningfully, "You sure know quite a bit."Fane even knew that only ten people would be allowed through. He seemed to have done his homework.Zayne took out his purple key from his storage ring. At that moment, all three keys were there. As long as all the keys were placed together, the gateway to the Valley of Enlightenment would open."If you only need two spots, then I don't mind working with you," Zayne looked at Fane meaningfully, but he quickly added, "However, make sure you don't cause any trouble during the important moments."Fane smiled before he said, "I've always been someone who keeps to my word. I'm more worried that you'll cause me trouble instead. There are many geniuses in the V
The two of them knew what that meant. Their eyes met, and worry was evident in their eyes."Is it Fane again?" Zayne said with a frown. At that moment, the first name that popped up in his head was Fane.Only Fane would truly be a big problem for them. Seymour's expression turned sour. He suddenly felt like Fane seemed to be his Achilles heel. Fane could pop out at any time and put him in a difficult spot."That's right! It's me!" At that moment, a voice was heard from afar. The two of them looked in the direction of the voice and saw five figures appearing in the air.This time, Fane did not have a disguise on. He was facing everyone with his real face."It really is you!" Zayne's face completely soured at that moment. Even if they were meeting for the first time, he was already incredibly sensitive to Fane's name.Nothing good ever happened when Fane was mentioned and Fane had actually appeared in front of him."How dare you!" Seymour shouted angrily!He walked forward to sta
When Shin and the others saw that, they were speechless. That person who had looked down on them was completely bound and on the ground at that moment. He looked pathetic.Fane quickly walked toward Warren, reaching out to pull off the mask to reveal his face.Fane controlled his energy, reducing the destructive power in Warren's soul. After the pain diminished, Warren slowly woke up.He looked up and saw the one person he never wanted to see in his life. He lost his voice as he said, "Fane?! It's you!" He almost bit his tongue as he spoke.Fane smiled and nodded slightly, "Yes. It’s me.""No wonder, so it's you! Where's Presti then?" Warren looked up and said.Fane raised an eyebrow and shot an incredulous look at Warren. Warren immediately understood what happened, and his whole face turned pale, "He's dead!"Fane nodded. There was nothing much to hide. Warren gulped, suddenly feeling like his thoughts from earlier were an absolute joke at that moment. He had even been think
After seeing that, there was a surprised look on Warren's face. However, he quickly pushed back that surprise. Even if that man was skilled, he would just be an above-average warrior. Above-average warriors were like paper to him!"Brat, it looks like you have some skill. However, that means nothing in front of me. I'll show you right now what a warrior at the peak is!"Right after he said that, he circulated his true energy around his feet. Red energy started to frantically blow away the dust on the ground. He lunged into the air incredibly fast.Fane raised an eyebrow before he started to form seals with his hands. Countless seals danced around in the air, and a chain appeared.That chain looked like a black dragon as it danced in the air.Warren scoffed in disdain. It was just a petty trick from an above-average warrior in his eyes. That chain would shatter in just one blow.He did not even bother thinking about it as he raised the sword in his hand. A silver ray of light quic
He leaped forward and landed in front of those four. Fane had already noticed Warren a while ago, but Fane relaxed when he saw Warren was alone. If it was just one person, then there was nothing to worry about!"Presti really is a piece of trash. He couldn't even get you!" Warren said with a sneer.Shin clutched his chest and turned to look at Cavill next to him. Cavill nodded slightly and did not say anything. The two of them shut their mouths at the same time as they looked in Fane's direction.Warren immediately felt something was wrong. He turned to look at Fane and saw that Fane was still completely calm as if nothing had happened."Brat, it looks like you're no ordinary person!" Warren said with a sneer.Fane turned to look at him before saying calmly, "Are you here to kill us?"Warren laughed out loud, and his eyes were full of mockery, "What do you think I'm doing here? Do I look like I'm here to chat?"Fane laughed. He could not believe another one turned up so soon aft
When Warren heard that, he felt incredibly exasperated. He mumbled, "It's just Shin, how could there be any trouble? Even if he has some fellow disciples with him, Presti is more than enough. They're all trash anyway."Zayne frowned, and he unleashed an incredibly strong aura that forced Warren to take a step back, "Shut up! Do you think we can afford to be careless right now? We're at the cusp of accomplishing everything right now. We have to be extremely careful. What kind of attitude is this?"Warren immediately shut up and did not dare to say anything. Zayne coldly looked at Warren, and deeply felt like Warren was not someone who could accomplish much. If it was not for the fact that he was useful, Zayne would not even bother bringing Warren through the door with him.Seymour turned to look into the distance. Gray mist filled up the skies, and no one could see the end of the horizon.There was nothing in the skies, and Seymour suddenly started to feel some worry. He was not clo
In front of an ancient stone door, two men were standing there, while another was sitting down and resting.The men who were standing had very stiff expressions on their faces. The two of them looked at each other with animosity in their eyes. It was obvious they were not friendly with each other. The man who was sitting down had his eyes shut and completely ignored the other two."Seymour! You're just the same as Desmond. You can't even get something so simple done. Desmond lost his life. I think you're about to follow suit!" Warren sneered as he mocked.Seymour's expression was dark, and he shot right back, "Warren, stop with those disgusting words of yours! Don't think I don't know what you're trying to do. You're just trying to push me down and take all the credit for yourself!"Stop joking around! You aren't smart enough to steal my credit! Even though Desmond is already dead, he still did the best he could. He was just tricked by Fane. If it was you, you wouldn't even have
Fane frowned. After he reached out to grab Presti's neck, Presti's life ended with a crack.Shin's eyes widened as he looked at Fane with fear. His savior could very well kill him!Cavill started to panic as well. He looked at Fane with alarm. Even though he was thankful that Fane saved the two of them just now, he had no way to tell what Fane would do after this. Fane slowly walked in front of them, and he did not show much emotion on his face.Cavill said in a dry voice, "Fane, you…?"Fane shook his head, "Don't panic. I won't kill you. Let's work together. It's not like only one person will be able to enter after the door opens."Shin looked at Fane with an incredibly inquisitive look. He thought about it before he said, "I… I don't want to work together. I'll give you the key as thanks for saving me. That Valley of Enlightenment doesn't sound like a good place at all. If I enter, I don't even know if I'll be able to survive."As he spoke, Shin had a bitter look on his face.
