Lily nodded her head slowly. “It was my mistake. I had been very much against him since he arrived at the Woods family. He must be suspecting that I had ordered the Woods family members to kill him. That’s why he’s on his guard. It won’t be easy to kill him now!”“That’s right. He would not have thought that it was you who sent people after him at the beginning. But once he came here, it was you who most vehemently disliked his presence, so of course, he would suspect you. First Madam, if you had shown that you could accept him from the start, and if you had been nicer toward him, he would never have suspected you.”Here, Dean paused for a while before continuing, “This way, it would be far easier to act against him, since he has no walls around you.”The realization shook Lily’s core, but she knew that it was too late. “Ah, can’t do anything about it now. You know what my temper is like. I don’t know if Lance is dead or alive, and Fane snatched the head of the house position just l
Lily burned with anger at the other end of the phone. “What happens if you fail? What if Fane gets away?” She bellowed. Dean immediately assured Lily, “Don’t you worry. If we failed the task and let that brat get away, we won’t be taking a single spirited grass at all! But if we succeed, then you must give each of us three spirited grass, how about that?” “No way! It’s too much. The best I could offer is two spirited grass per person!” After Lily gave the matter some thought, she still felt that three spirited grass per person was a little bit too much. Besides, she was the First Madam, she should be respected. Dean was too insatiable right now. Lily had given him spirited grass before, and she did not expect that this time Dean had asked for three first-grade premium spirited grass instead. “Oh, is that so? In that case, First Madam, I’m sorry that I couldn’t serve you this time.” Dean sneered coldly and continued, “Yolanda and I returned in a critical period—when the weathe
“Hahaha! You’re right, Yolanda! Let’s go!” Dean flew up to the sky together with Yolanda. Looking at Yolanda’s delicate figure from behind, Dean could not help but swallow his saliva hard. This woman possessed an alluring body figure—plump chest, slender waist, and full b*tt cheeks. When she flew in the air, the lock of black hair flew according to the wind current, how fascinating! Although she was not as alluring and charming as Fane’s wife and his friend, among the people he knew, her body and features were one of the few. “My dear Yolanda, I’ll own you one day! Then I’ll sleep with you and you’ll obey me! You’ll be my obedient little woman beside me!” Gazing at the back of Yolanda, Dean thought while smiling to himself. As both did not stop for a break, they arrived at the top of the high mountain hill only a few miles away from the main residence of the Woods family in the afternoon. “Yolanda, I found that you’re not much of a talker, are you? You didn’t talk all the
Dean said smilingly in an icy cold tone, “Do you not want us to be able to break through to the middle or even late stage of the true god realm sooner? We’re geniuses who are considered relatively young. If we are able to break through, we’ll be promoted to elders in no time! Besides, Fane is destined to die, whether it’s killed by us or others. So don’t try to persuade me anymore.” “Well, I just feel that it’s quite a pity for such an intelligent and talented person to die. After all, Nash Woods is a good leader, and he has always been good and kind to us. He didn’t treat us as outsiders at all!” Yolanda peeped at Dean as she said, she was still fighting as hard as she could. Yolanda was having inner turmoil lately because she truly did not want to see a fine and potential heir of the Woods family be murdered by them. She felt especially sorry for Fane’s father. On top of that, she had also witnessed the greatness and excellence of Fane these days, hence she really admired and
“Heh! If I remember correctly, you two should still be the Patronums of the Woods family, right?” Fane gave a wan smile, looking unconcerned. “Two guardians of the Woods family came all the way here for me, surely you didn’t come here to say hi to me. So, most likely you’re here to kill me, right?” Fane stared at both of them nonchalantly. “Clever! You’re very clever, aren’t you? You know what we came here for!” Dean snorted coldly, “We’re Lagorios, we’ve no choice. First Madam introduced us to the Woods family and for us to work as Patronum. We’ve to repay First Madam’s kindness to us, besides, the benefits she is offering us for killing you are attractive. Anyhow, we should kill you.” “Hahaha! Moreover, you guys are not on good terms with me, nor do you have a good relationship with me, right?” Fane chimed in and finished Dean’s sentence. “But, it’s really good for you guys to tell me that First Madam has her target on my back? Aren’t you afraid that you won’t be able to ki
The corners of Fane’s mouth curled upward. “I didn’t see this coming. I didn’t expect this Pratonum to take our side this time. She did her job as a protector of the Woods family!” Yolanda put away the sword in her hand then she bowed to Fane, “I was in a huge dilemma for a long time, but in the end, I couldn’t bring myself to kill you. So, I hope that Young Master Fane, you’ll train harder and grow up quicker, and not make me regret my decision today!” Fane nodded and studied the woman in front of him. She could tell right from wrong and pick a right side. “Don’t worry. I will not let their treacherous plans succeed!” Fane paused for a moment then continued, “Hmmm…but right now, you failed the task given by Lily!” Yolanda had thought about it before. “I have no other choice but to do this. After I return to her, I’ll report that you have already reached the early stage of the true god realm and you’re stronger than both of us combined together. Dean was too careless and gullib
It was a warm afternoon; Lily was ready to take a break.Suddenly, Yolanda barged into her room at a lightning speed. “Yolanda? Why are you here? Didn’t I call you a moment ago and ask you to wait at the mountain to ambush Fane and the others? What’s wrong? Don’t tell me you’re not satisfied with three first-grade premium spirited grass?” When Lily saw that the intruder was Yolanda, she barked with an unpleasant tone. Nevertheless, just as she finished her words, she noticed that Yolanda’s face was unsightly. “What’s wrong? Are you injured?” Lily fretted aloud. Yolanda was gasping so loud as though she had a ruptured lung. She finally calmed herself down, sat down, and uttered, “I barely managed to come back alive. We were waiting for Fane and they appeared not long after…” Lily’s face immediately lit up at the news. “What about Fane? Is he dead now? And you’re injured during the battle because Fane was quite strong? Where’s Dean though? Why didn’t he come back with you?” Li
“Sigh! It’s a pity that I didn’t manage to end his life this time. I’ll leave to treat my injuries first!” Yolanda bowed to Lily and wheeled around, preparing to leave. “Hold on!” Lily called out to Yolanda. Yolanda’s heart leaped into her throat when Lily called out to her. Did she say something inconsistent, and Lily found out? Why did Lily call her? However, to her surprise, Lily flipped her hand and a first-grade premium spirited grass appeared on her palm. She turned around, facing Yolanda, and gestured to her to take the spirited grass. “Although we have an agreement before, that you won’t get any spirited grass if you failed the mission, you were injured this time, so I’ll give you one anyway. I hope you’ll improve faster and reach the middle stage of the true god realm soon. You’re talented; once you’ve reached the middle stage of the true god realm, I’ll find an opportunity to promote you to an elder!” “Thank you so much, First Madam!” Yolanda nodded with a happy
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.
