“Haha, the voice is different!”Right then, the Selena before them burst out laughing. Meanwhile, her sound had changed to be like Ivan, exactly the same.“Hh-how did you use my voice?”Ivan took a deep breath. ‘Is this the capabilities of an expert hitman that ranked fifth in the southwestern hitman leaderboard?’ That was too terrifying. His voice was mimicked just like that. Moreover, it was exactly the same.“Haha, tell me. If I transfigured into your appearance and used your voice, would the others still be able to identify me?” the Selena before them spoke once more in Ivan’s voice.“Amazing, simply amazing!” Ken exclaimed in astonishment. Everything felt too surreal.If the woman before her was not a hitman, he would have asked her how much it would cost to spend a night with him. After all, after she transfigured into Selena, that appearance was just too similar.“Is that so?”Unexpectedly, the Selena before them smiled at Ken, her voice changing once again to mimic his.“Oh my
“That woman’s body is stunning. I think her butt is even perkier than Selena’s”After arriving at the plaza outside the hotel, Neil could not resist swallowing his saliva. “Too bad she’s a hitman. If only she was an escort. I’d be willing to pay high prices for this woman!”“That’s right. Such a beautiful flower, yet it had to be a rose with thorns!”Ken joined in amusement. “Next we can just sit back, relax, and wait for the good news from her!”Neil nodded, then said to Ivan, “Young Master Taylor, if the hitman contacts you about Fane’s death, you must notify us right away. Us, brothers shall have a good celebration!”Hearing that, Ivan’s heart was overjoyed. Although the Taylor family was just a third-class aristocratic family, Young Master Hugo and Young Master Clark belonged to second-class aristocratic families.For them to address him as a brother, it was apparent that he was not seen as an outsider. If he could establish a good connection with them, then it would definitely be
After Sonia went out, Selena sat behind her desk frowning, still feeling hesitant.She had carefully read through those materials. It was obvious that among the suppliers, the Taylor family was the most prominent construction material supplier.Meanwhile, the other suppliers were no match for the Taylor family. Most importantly, they would not be able to handle such a big project.However, Selene knew full well that Sonia was hiding something. With them running such a big project, it was a tempting opportunity. It was impossible for the other companies that could rival the Taylor family to not compete.Hence, there must be some documents that Sonia has kept hidden from her.Nevertheless, that was actually a good thing for her. She had originally planned to help the Taylor family, and the quality of their construction materials were honestly good. Of course, she naturally wished for the Taylor family to grow stronger as well. That way, Old Master Taylor would be able to fulfill his lif
Having said that, OId Master Taylor paused for a moment before asking, “Are you still angry at Grandpa for that?”Selena forced a smile. “I know Grandpa’s attitude quite well. Back then I was stubborn too. It was out of spite that I was pregnant with my daughter. However, I find that Fane is a decent guy and my daughter is very cute as well. There’s nothing much for me to regret. As for other people gossiping, that’s their business. I have to live for myself!”The old master sighed, then said, “It seems that despite my old age, I’ve not lived my life as fully as you had! Oh right, I heard that you’re in charge of the South Hill Real Estate’s construction materials procurement? Have you found a suitable collaborator for the project? I know that it’s a little difficult for you at this position, as others would gossip.”Selena kept quiet. At first, she thought that her grandfather would persuade her to sign a deal with the Taylor family. She did not expect him to be considerate of her pos
After the call, Old Master Taylor remained seated on the sofa and sighed. “Sigh, Selena is still the best. Even after being chased out of the family and picked on by Ivan, she would still think of the bigger picture at a critical time like this. Instead, Ivan is just useless!”After Selena put down her phone, she had Rosa summon Sonia over.“Manager Taylor, are you looking for me?”Sonia had a plastic smile on her face. It could not be helped. For money and her future, she could only keep it all in when working in front of Selena while keeping a smile on.It seemed that she was not keeping a grudge from their past.Of course, until now, she still could not understand how Selena's husband, a mere bodyguard, dared to slap her in front of her uncle. In the end, not only did Fane not get reprimanded by the Drake family, but they instead sided with him.It made her suspect if the rumor she spread about Selena to ruin her reputation, where she had an affair with Young Master Drake, was true.
As for not giving them any part of the project, he did not think that was possible. After all, he had already told her previously that it was their grandfather’s idea. Selena was kind and filial. For their grandfather, she would at least give them some part of the project.“Come sign the contract tomorrow. Selena finally agreed, quite fast too!”“However, she wants to lower the price by five percent!”On the other end of the phone, Sonia laughed. “Congratulations Young Master Ivan for acquiring such a big project!”“What?!”Ivan immediately stood up, feeling excited. “Go sign the contract tomorrow? Lowering it by five percent is no issue. The haggling is common practice. Moreover, the demand is not much, just a symbolic price reduction!”Having said that, he immediately questioned further, “Oh, did you ask how much of this project is she allocating to us? It shouldn’t be the entire project, right?”“Although it’s not the whole project, it’s still quite a surprise. Eighty-five percent!
“Manager Taylor, l-l-let me introduce myself. I’m Janet. Our family...how do I put it? Please don’t laugh at me, but we’re just a regular company. We’re not even considered a third-class aristocratic family!”“However, Jacob’s Construction Materials is really quite good. Our quality is decent. Oh yeah, I have some of our documents here. There are also some reviews from our clients after working with us!”Janet seemed to be nervous, but still courageously introduced herself to Selena.Standing before her, Selena was already a successful female professional with a high position.She heard that the Drake family was paying her a monthly salary of 1 million bucks. With that kind of pay, she was comparable to some directors.“You even have reviews?”Selena was surprised and intrigued. After taking a careful look, she finally told Janet, “Your company does look good. I’ve heard of it before. Your reputation is decent!”Having said that, she paused for a moment before continuing, “I would like
Janet was elated, quickly taking her leave.“This girl!”Selena laughed before standing up and taking her leave as well.However, she did not expect a sexy and seductive lady in shades seated nearby had been observing them for a long time.Only after Selena had left did the woman stood up and settle her bill before going out.“What I meant to say was the remaining fifteen percent will all be given to you…”The corner of her lips curled up creepily. The voice she made was the exact copy of Selena’s voice.That lady was none other than the hitman that ranked fifth in the southwestern hitman leaderboard, Shadow!At the same time, Ivan had also happily returned home.Reaching home, he immediately called Cecilia and the other relatives over.“Master Ivan, what’s the matter? You seem happy. Did something good happen?”A young man of the Taylor family asked, giggling.“Excellent! Truly wonderful news!”Ivan’s body still reeked of alcohol. He looked at Theodore and Zeus, proclaiming, “Dad, Gra
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.
