“No way. This guy wants to shake Miss Tanya’s hand? Isn’t he too overconfident?”“That’s right. Does he even know who Miss Tanya is? He’s a live-in son-in-law and the reason why the Taylor family chased his wife’s family out of the house. Is a person like him in the position to shake Miss Tanya’s hand?”A few thugs standing behind the restaurant started to quietly gossip.An ordinary person would not hear them as their voices were very soft.However, they were not aware that Fane had clearly heard everything they said.Fane paid no attention to them. Smiling, he kept looking at Miss Tanya standing in front of him.“You’re welcome! Nice to meet you, I’m Tanya Drake! I heard you’re also from the army, right? I admire people like you the most. I appreciate your contribution to our country! If it wasn’t for guys like you, we wouldn’t have won this time!”Miss Tanya stretched out her hand and shook Fane’s in front of the crowd.It seemed like Miss Tanya did not often shake hands with the op
In the end, Miss Tanya watched as Fane and the others left.“You people better learn your lesson. I’ll let you go for what happened today. If you keep bothering them for today’s matter, I’ll end you guys. I don’t care whether you’re a part of the Wilson’s family!”After Fane and the others left, Tanya gave them a warning before she and her people drove away.“Tanya Drake is so exasperating! Why didn’t she come sooner or later, instead of right on time?”“She could’ve came even just a few minutes later or waited until Selena and the others left. Things wouldn’t have been such a mess then!”Looking at the damage done, they had definitely suffered a great loss. The fatty manager was furious.He did not know that at that moment, Michael was feeling joyful in the private room.“That’s great, Young Master Wilson. Your method really worked!”“Selena’s face turned pale when she heard 4,000,000 bucks. Fane does not have that much money. I bet he doesn't even have 400 thousand bucks!”“Selena di
“Really?"Michael's eyes brightened upon hearing that. His heart was filled with excitement.He thought that he would only have one chance. Although it was only once, it was much better than not being able to get his goddess for a lifetime.Previously, he even hoped that there were no men in Selena's family as she would be a widow if Fane died. Then sooner or later, she would be moved by his efforts and agree to be together with him.He did not expect Fane, who was a soldier, to come back alive. Since then, he felt that the possibility to be together with Selena was far too slim.Therefore, when Ivan told him his method, he agreed without much thought. After all, he had been waiting for that day for years."Of course it's real but Young Master Wilson, about the profits on the project we're working on..."Ivan smiled coldly. He wanted to make a profit for the Taylor family’s business to flourish. He would be a major contributor if the Taylor family made money.By that time, he could sec
“There’s so many of you and none of you managed to stop them? Didn’t anyone fight back? Did you just sit back and watch them wreck the place?”Looking at his men standing there, Michael was furious. “Did I hire you for nothing?”“Young Maser Wilson, it’s not that we didn’t fight back or stop them, it’s because we didn’t dare to fight back!”The manager did not know whether to laugh or cry. “Fane wasn’t the one who did this. It was Miss Tanya’s men.”“Tanya Drake?”Michael gulped when he heard the name. “That girl. Why did she come here and wreck our place up?”“Ah, she passed by our restaurant, thought it looked nice, and wanted to come in for a meal. After knowing what happened, she defended them and said we shouldn’t blackmail them. After that, she wrecked the place!“The most important thing is that she let Fane and the others leave without having them pay. She also warned us not to bother them anymore!”The manager sighed. “In the end, Fane and Miss Taylor owe Tanya a favor. Before
“You would pay for 400 thousand bucks?"Fiona laughed coldly when she heard that. “ Just keep acting. Look at yourself, I highly doubt you’d that much money."Another thought struck her mind after she said that. She then said to Selena, "By the way, Selena, the Taylor family works in the construction material industry. You've worked for them all this while, but it’s too bad that you’re restricted from it now. You can't even find a job. Many companies dare not hire you because they’re tied to Ivan! ""You're right. Ah, I have no other choice. Ivan already said that he will only leave me alone if I become a garbage collector! Otherwise, he’ll create a ruckus no matter where I work. That’s why no one dares offend him as they want to avoid trouble."Selena sighed. “Now that Fane is back, our family will be better off if we’re both working!""That's true. Although it might be tough, we won't be so miserable right now if we find a job!"Fiona sighed." That was why I was thinking about Miss D
In regards to that, Fiona stopped for a moment and said, "Of course he can't do it. If he can't bring us the betrothal gift, haha, my son-in-law might end up changing into either Young Master Wilson or Young Master Clark!"Fane pulled Selena back when he saw her urge to argue with Fiona. "Forget it, Selena. Mum is right. You are indeed a wonderful woman. I won't let you down on grandfather's birthday! You’re my woman and nobody can take you away!"Seeing Fane’s determined gaze, Selena's anger disappeared as warmth filled her instead.She nodded shyly and said," Mm-hmm, I believe in you. I heard that the battlefield was very dangerous and many died, but you stayed there for five years and survived. You must be better than others."Fiona's face turned sour upon hearing those sweet words. She quickly reminded Selena, “Selena, I told you not to fall for his sweet-talk. He won't be our son-in-law if he can't give us 10 million bucks worth of betrothal gift. You must not allow him to touch y
Not long after listening to Fane's story, Kylie fell asleep.In that moment, Tanya had already arrived at the Drake family's home. She went to see her father."How was it? Did you meet the guy named Fane?"James asked Tanya eagerly as soon as he saw her.Tanya poured herself half a glass of wine. She swirled it around before taking a sip. Then she said, "Yes, I saw him. He's quite good-looking and manly too!"James was speechless. "Did I ask you to admire his face? I asked you to befriend him and keep in touch with him. Think of it as having another friend. Although he's not as good as the God of War Lana, they’re very similar. The most important thing is that he and Lana are very good friends. Befriending him means we’re on our way to reaching the skills of the God of War."Tanya took another sip of her wine. She put her glass down on the table and said solemnly, "Dad, I don't understand. If we want to fawn over this God of War from the Middle Province, why don't we just fawn over Lan
Ivan, what's the matter? It's so early in the morning and you have everybody gathered here. Do you have something important to announce?"Theodore, the Taylor family’s head, asked in confusion as he looked at his son. "I have good news for everybody. I received a big project this time. The crucial thing is that we’ve never worked on such an expensive project before. I estimate that we can earn at least 300 million bucks from this project."Ivan smiled as he said that, wearing a proud look on his face. He believed that Michael was a man of his words, so he could not hold back his excitement. Hands trembling, he gathered everyone and told them about it. "That's great, this must be a really big project!" "That's right. Young Master Ivan is such a competent man. He got us such a big project. Moreover, the profits are exceptionally high!" A few relatives from the Taylor family gasped in admiration. "Really? Did you sign the contract?" The Old Master Taylor was very happy as
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.
