“He actually spent ninety-five million bucks to buy that mansion? No way...“And you ran into him and that wealthy lady again? They left from that mansion?”Selena’s face turned slightly bitter. If what they had claimed was true, Fane’s relationship with that wealthy lady was indeed quite unique.If all of it were true, that would mean that the man she had spent five years desperately waiting for his return actually lied to her, and that she would have been the most foolish woman in the entire world.“Of course it’s real. If you don’t believe me, we can both head over to the auction house and ask if there was indeed a man named Fane who bought the mansion for ninety-five million bucks!”Ken immediately said, “I can’t lie about that now, can I?”Selena frowned, remaining silent. Her heart felt slightly awful. She felt incredibly wronged.Over the last five years, she had suffered too much mockery and judgment for the sake of Fane and their daughter to be treated this way.Fane h
Lunch hour soon arrived. She walked out of the exit and after some thought, she drove to the auction house.“Is there anything I can help you with, miss? Our auction will begin at 1pm. We auctioned off a mansion earlier today and we’ll be auctioning off an amazing antique later.”When a beautiful female staff noticed Verian, she immediately approached her with a professional smile.“Oh, I wanted to ask if it was true that an astronomical price was offered during the auction for the mansion this morning?” Selena probed after biting her lip.She felt nervous after asking the question, worried she might feel awful about the answer.“Of course, it’s true. That man was incredible. He’s the son-in-law of the Taylor family…and he spent ninety-five million bucks to win the bid for that mansion!”As the staff spoke, she exclaimed enviously, “Truly, the wealthiest amongst the wealthiest. He actually had that much money to buy it on a whim!”“You, how do you know he’s the son-in-law of the
Miss Tanya did not give Fane an advanced pay, yet he spent ninety-five million bucks on that mansion.This meant that the money must have belonged to that wealthy lady.She guessed that the mansion was bought by the wealthy lady, and whenever the both of them were free in the future, that was where they would go for their dates.She grew incredibly furious when she thought about how she allowed Fane to cuddle up with her the entire night last night.However, it did not take long for her to calm down. She pretended as if nothing had happened when she returned to her office, all the way till she was done with work for the day. She drove home as usual.After Fane and Lana had lunch, they immediately went furniture shopping.Lana left after they were done picking the right furniture. Fane, on the other hand, followed the delivery staff back to the mansion and switched out the furniture from the previous owner that he did not want.After they were done, he realized that the overall f
Fane could sense that Selena was in a bad mood. She seemed as if she was hiding something from him.Selena chuckled and said, “No. What are you talking about!”“Fane is back!”Fiona was taking care of something in the house.When she noticed Fane’s return, Fiona came over smiling cheerfully, “Oh look, it’s my amazing son-in-law. You’re back!”Both Selena and Fane looked at each other. instantly sensing that something was off.Fiona actually greeted her son-in-law, and on top of that, called him amazing. This made them feel as though something sketchy was happening.“Oh no, I’m not worthy of your praises!”Fane chuckled awkwardly and asked, “Is there a problem, mom?”“Hehe, you sure are sharp!”Fiona chuckled before saying, “Sharon’s been looking for you for a few days in a row now but you haven’t been home.”Fane gasped when he heard that. His expression dimmed slightly. It seemed like that woman would still show up here.It seemed like his mother-in-law might have gotten p
Selena was completely charmed by what Fane had just said.She could feel that the statement came directly from the bottom of his heart. The tone of his voice did not sound like he was lying.She might have misunderstood him if that were the case.However, if it was not a misunderstanding, and since Fane loved money so much, why would he not pick Sharon. Since Sharon was not only pretty, she was young too. She had not even dated anyone before. Such a pure innocent lady would be much better than any wealthy woman, right?Selena seriously wondered if she had actually misunderstood Fane. It might be quite possible that Ivan, Neil, and the others had intentionally laid a trap for Fane to strain their relationship.Fane might not have even gone to the auction house today and went to work. Perhaps the staff at the auction house were all bribed by Ivan and the others to intentionally say that.That was because Ken and the others were no fools. They could have guessed that she might secre
Selena rolled her eyes at her mother before returning to her house as well.“So much money and that happens to be the George family, you know. They are wealthier than our Taylor family. He actually…”Fiona frowned while she watched the couple’s attitude. It seemed it would be slightly difficult if she wanted to pull the whole ordeal off.However, her heart felt incredible when she thought about the George family's assets. She truly could not understand how Fane could be that foolish since he would be able to marry another beautiful wife on top of getting so much money. How could he not agree to such a wonderful offer?Although Joan already promised her that she would help talk to him, she understood her son very well so she never exactly did.Instead, it was Ben and Xena who both shamelessly came to talk to Fane the next morning. This made Fane feel even more confused about them.Selena instead behaved slightly more normal and calm the following couple of days. She returned home
Selena frowned after hearing Fane said that. Could the gift Fane mentioned be the mansion?Could that mean Fane actually won the auction for that mansion?However, the Drake family never gave Fane advanced pay though. Could that be a gift from the wealthy lady to Fane and that was Fane’s gift for her grandpa?Selena would not look down on Fane even if he became a sugar baby just for the sake of staying in the Taylor family because she had already decided that even if Fane could not fulfill his promises and was not acknowledged by the Taylor family, she would still stay by his side.She believed if they do not have money, they could make money together instead of using such methods to make money just for the sake of being acknowledged by the Taylor family.Not to mention, if news of Fane being a sugar baby broke out, Old Master Taylor might actually be incredibly furious about it. He would rather not accept a mansion if that was the case since he would feel incredibly ashamed of it
However, what made Fane feel odd was, Xena seemed honest and was staying by Ben’s side all the time. This made him wonder if she actually had turned over a new leaf after the boss of the Dragon God Clan died?However, with much deeper thought, that possibility seemed quite likely. Xena might feel hopeful again after seeing Fane giving Fiona, twenty million bucks on top of gaining George family’s favor when their Taylor family were given two Rolls Royces. Moreover, both Fane and Selena each had a Porsche 911. These assets alone were more than enough for Xena to turn over a new lead and change her mind to be with Ben.It did not take them long to arrive at the Taylor family home with their cars.“I didn’t expect them to be able to drive such a car when they’re still living in that dump!”Cecilia mocked immediately after she noticed Fane and the others arrive.“Yeah, I heard Fane knew of some medical skills and had successfully treated Sharon’s obesity. Those Rolls Royces were gifted
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.
