Thus, they continued their journey ahead on their steed, with Daniella eager at the thought of having dinner with Fane alone.Moreover, she found that being next to Fane gave her a sense of security. Although he was six or seven years older than her, the mature Fane made her even more fascinated as she spent days with him.He was a far cry from the other young masters that gifted her roses, chocolates, jade pendants, and spirited grasses. They bored her senseless. Eventually, the duo arrived outside a small town as the sky slowly turned dark.The small town seemed rather vast as it was brightly lit at this hour, festive-looking as many night market stalls were put up on the streets. "Not bad… This small town looks much like an ancient, bygone town. What a sight for sore eyes!" Daniella had a smile on her face as she walked on the wide bluestone street with the tall Blood dragon Horse in tow."Feel free to tell me whatever you’d like to eat, Third Young Mistress Cabello, there's
Much like casual martial artists, people like them would only have small amounts of spirited stones. It was considered nice to have several pieces, though they would use such spirited stones to train and try improving themselves as much as possible. How could they use it for food?"This is ridiculous! Open your dog-like eyes and see who I am! Do I look like somebody who can't afford a meal?" It was apparent that Daniella had never received such treatment in the past as she was on the verge of exploding. She never expected to be looked down on when she came to a small town for food.“What are you talking about, young girl? Do you know who the boss of our restaurant is? How dare you say ‘open your dog-like eyes’ to us! Haha…! Let me tell you this: even employees like us aren’t people you can simply offend!” The burly man immediately got angry and looked at Daniella despicably. “You’re a stunner, but that’s all you are, no cash on you. Women like you are trophy women—what else would you
Upon seeing who came for them, both burly men scrambled to their feet from the floor as they whimpered and muttered, “Young master, this young girl is too…too much…! She hit members of our Murphy family!” Annoyed, Young Master Murphy glared at both men. “You’re both useless. You can’t even win in a fight against a woman!”“Young Master, this woman has the fighting prowess of the semi-god level, and it’s only natural that we in the grandmaster stage will lose…!” one of them reasoned as he held his abdomen, face scrunched up in pain. “She doesn’t look to be from around here and seems to be more than just a casual trainer!”“Semi-god level?” Young Master Murphy’s face darkened when he heard this. A person with this level of fighting prowess would be regarded as a master.His father was also in the final stages of the semi-god level and was a considerably formidable force in this town. Their family also had several masters, but they could not go offending some master of the semi-god l
Relieved that they were pardoned, both burly men knelt again and started slapping themselves.“Thank you for forgiving the faults of these petty people, Miss Cabello!” Young Master Murphy was also relieved. After all, these two subordinates of his were at the grandmaster level. They were fifth or sixth-grade grandmasters, and such fighting prowess was considered stellar to the Murphy family. That was why they were sent to guard the restaurant.He never foresaw such an event would happen, and it made him feel helpless. He thought about it and said again, “All of you, listen to me: Everything Third Young Mistress Cabello orders tonight will be free, understand?”“Yes, Sir!” The other waiters in the restaurant immediately replied.“That’s more like it!” Daniella patted Young Master Murphy on his shoulder when she saw how understanding he was. “Remember to ask your subordinates to not look down on others in the future. I’m not the only one they can’t afford to offend. This good frien
“Yes young master. Ezra Ladenberg is not a nice person and the Third Young Mistress Cabello is really beautiful. It so happens that Ezra is an extremely lecherous person and I’m afraid that something bad will happen later!” The subordinate looked anxious as he thought about it. He immediately said, “Young master, this won’t work. We need to rush over and remind Young Master Ladenberg or they will definitely get into a fight!”However, Young Master Murphy stopped him. “Remind? Why should we remind him? The Ladenberg family had been suppressing our Murphy family all this while and that Young Master Ladenberg is wildly arrogant. This is a great chance to get rid of the Ladenberg family. Those two almost died because they offended that woman. Do you think that they would still be alive if they took advantage of Third Young Mistress Cabello?”The subordinate’s eyes lit up when he heard this. “That’s right, why didn’t I think about this. I was only thinking about how our tables and chairs
“Haha… Is this a joke? You expect me to accompany that fat-ass with one piece of useless spirited stone?” Daniella laughed.Fane also could not help but stand up. “Didn’t you hear when she asked you to f*ck off?”This was the first time he purposely brought Daniella out for a meal and it started off with an unhappy incident. Fane was also unhappy as they were suddenly disturbed hence he did not want to be nice to the other party.Daniella was secretly happy and touched when she saw how Fane was slightly angry.In her opinion, Fane proactively stood forward and got mad meant that he had some of affection toward her. Why was Fane so angry if he did not like her?“Who are you? How dare you speak to me this way?” The man was one of the butlers in Young Master Ladenberg’s family and he was considered a highly positioned person in the Ladenberg family.However, he never liked to take action under normal circumstances. In his opinion, most of the situations could be resolved by using sp
“Ah!” Both women in Young Master Ladenberg’s arms were so frightened that they turned pale. They immediately ran away and hid at a corner.“Young...young man, I’m the young master of the Ladenberg family. You will be going against the Ladenberg family if you dare kill me!” Young Master Ladenberg stood up and pointed at Fane. His voice and his finger, however, were trembling and he was obviously afraid.Whoosh!Fane did not pay much attention to him and carried out his attack. He then turned around and walked toward Daniella while putting his sword away.Bang!Young Master Ladenberg fell onto the ground in disbelief as he covered his neck with both his hands.“This… This…” Several subordinates of the Murphy family were surprised when they ran over to take a look. They immediately ran downstairs.One of them went toward Young Master Murphy. “Young master, this is great! That guy really killed Young Master Ladenberg! Haha… Even heaven is helping us!”“Is that true? Why haven’t you
At this moment, Young Master Maack walked over with a smile on his face and placed two bottles of wine on the table. “Third Young Mistress Cabello and Young Master Woods, I present to you the legendary monkey wine, a wine whose sweetness is unparalleled, and its aroma thick and flavorful. It’s extremely beneficial for those who are training to become chi masters!”Young Master Maack introduced the wine to Fane, grinning. “My father stores it here, and I usually don’t dare to drink it. I only take a few sips when he’s around. Best of all, a wine like this is extremely hard to procure!”Fane noticed the other man’s bootlicking demeanor and frowned. “If this wine is truly as rare and as good as you say it is, why would you bring it out for us?”Daniella’s brows creased together when she heard Fane’s words. Her gaze toward Young Master Maack sharpened. “Don’t tell me that you’ve spiked this drink, Young Master Maack. We’re not as gullible as you think we are!”Young Master Maack near
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.
