”A lot of sports cars?” Fane and the others frowned and were stunned.However, a voice could be heard coming from an amplifier outside. “Everybody inside, listen to us. You have been surrounded!”…“No, that’s wrong. Fane, listen to me. I’m here to marry you! Surrender and come out quickly. Follow me home and marry me!” Fane and the others were even more stunned when they heard this. Who was this woman? They had no idea who it was when they heard the voice through the speakers.“Marry you?” Selena was so confused and completely stunned. A woman drove a sports car over to marry her husband? Was that a drama series?!“I... I have no idea who it is!” Fane was embarrassed. “I don’t know a lot of people in the Middle Province. I’ve only come back from the army for a few days!”“I know!” Fiona’s expression darkened at this moment and looked at Fane angrily. “Fane, shouldn’t you admit that you're a toy boy? Other than the rich woman who spent five hundred million on a luminous pearl at
Fiona was so angry that she started being unreasonable and made a scene. She sat down right on the ground.Fane was embarrassed. He spoke to Selena, “Selena, please believe in me. I really don’t know who the woman outside is. Let’s go out and take a look. Maybe she’s at the wrong place and is looking for the wrong person?”“How is that possible? She’s calling out your name. Are you trying to tell me your name isn't Fane?” Selena glared at Fane before walking outside, “I want to take a look. I want to see who dares get on our turf!”Fane was slightly surprised before feeling happy when he saw this situation. His wife was jealous!The headlamps were really glaring as she looked out the door. Her eyes adapted to the light for a few seconds before she could see the situation outside clearly.“Hey, they’ve finally come out!” At that moment, a fat woman jumped down from the bonnet. She looked at Fane happily. “My Handsome Fane, I’ve been mesmerized by you since the first time we met. Your ha
”Wait!” As Fane was about to reject Sharon, when Fiona suddenly spoke.Everybody silenced and looked at her.Fiona looked at Sharon and said, “Miss George, this isn't a joke. Have you considered it properly? Do you really want Fane to marry into your family?“I… I’ve thought of it thoroughly!” Sharon replied.“Give us some time!” Fiona replied she cunningly smiled.“Sure. After all, this is an important matter in life and I showed up out of the blue, it's only fair that you have some time to discuss it first! However, I really like Fane a lot and I'm serious about it! I don’t mind being the second wife!” Sharon said.“Yes, I understand. Let us go in and discuss. We'll give you an answer in a while!” Fiona nodded as she spoke.“What's there to discuss? There’s no need for that!” Fane’s face darkened and said, “Selena is my wife and I love her. On top of that, I have a cute daughter and I'd change nothing about my life. I only want to live a normal life!”Fane paused and spoke to
”You want Fane to be with her because of this?” Selena was extremely angry and she could not believe her mother's words.“Hey, can you wait for me to finish!” Fiona smiled bitterly and continued, “Who is she? She’s the daughter of George family. She made such a big scene today and brought all her friends along. Do you think it will work if Fane rejects her in front of everybody?”Fiona paused, picked up a cup by the side, and drank some tea before continuing, “The 'face' is as important to man as the bark is to the tree. It'd be embarrassing for her if Fane rejects her outright. By then, we’ll offend. Besides, it takes a lot of courage for a girl to do this!”Selena could not help but nodded after she heard what her mother said. “That’s true. I’ve heard that Sharon is a kind person and she did a lot of charity work. She craves for food now and cannot control her appetite, so it'll be impossible for her to lose weight! And, this is the first time she initiated a confess and even I wa
Sharon, who was standing outside, was extremely nervous. She could not help but tighten her fists and lowered her head in fright.She knew absolutely well that she was too fat.However, she could not control herself with food—especially sweet stuff. This caused her to gain more and more weight.There was a huge possibility that Fane would reject her due to her body size.“Sasa, don’t worry about it. We believe in you! A woman with confidence is the prettiest in the world and you'll surely succeed! Besides, you'll have to confess to him to know if he feels the same way. How else will he know? You'll never succeed if you don't confess, but you stand a chance if you do. It’s good to try no matter the outcome!” A sexy woman with a leather skirt and long legs smiled at Sharon and they seemed to have a good relationship.“Thank you, Serene!” Sharon smiled slightly and nodded. She remembered how others laughed at her behind her back after she grew fat. There were even people who mocked h
”Everybody can go back first. Howard, stay back and send me home later. I want to have a chat with Fane!” Sharon turned around and smiled. Although she was fat, her smile was very sweet and mesmerizing.“We… We'll leave immediately!” Serene was disappointed that she could not witness Sharon being rejected. She knew this man would not be interested in Sharon. Otherwise, he must have a very weird taste.When Serene thought about how Fane was interjected by Fiona for a discussion when he intended to reject Sharon, she felt that Fane might be convinced by Fiona. After all, the George family was so rich and he might agree to it because of money.Serene instantly felt cheated as she looked at the house. She would lose the chance to make fun of Sharon if Fane really agreed to the proposal. “Yes, all of you can go back!” Sharon waved her hand and said, “I thank all my friends that came here for me today. I’ll treat everybody to a meal some other day!”Serene could only drive away with th
Sharon was in disbelief after she heard what Fane said. She smiled and said, “How… How is that possible? Are you talking about the friends who were with me just now?”“Yes, I’m talking about the one who talked to me last!” Fane nodded. He believed that he was a good judge of character because of his experience in the army and the amount of people he met.“Serene Smith? How is that possible? She’s the one who treats me best among all my friends! She had never disliked me and had always been considerate. She was the one who'd taken the initiative to plan this confession!” Sharon obviously in disbelief.However, Fane replied, “Then it must be her. Do you think that she’s doing this for you? She’s the one who wants to make a joke out of you!”“Impossible… You’ve only met her once and you don’t know her. She’s a really nice person!” Sharon shaked her head profusely. She would like to believe that it was somebody else and not Serene.“You're the one who doesn’t understand her!” Fane smiled b
Sharon thought about it for a long time before gasping. "I know. It’s not food, she'd been giving me tea leaves. She told me that it was of good quality and originated from her hometown. I think the tea has a nice aroma so I drink it often!” Sharon paused and took in another breath. “She emphasised that this tea was expensive and exotic so I should only keep it to myself! I didn’t pay much attention to it but she sends it to me every other month and constantly asks if I have finished the tea!”Sharon gulped and looked at Fane in horror after she figured it out. “You're saying that there's something wrong with the tea leaves!”Fane nodded. “That must be it. She must've tampered the tea leaves!”“How could she do that? I treat Serene so well, why does she do this to me?” Sharon was disappointed. She walked a few steps backward and was unwilling to accept the fact.However, what Fane said made sense and she knew things were not incidental.Was it possible that Serene wanted to make fun of
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.
