Disgruntled, Lionel left after saying that. "Lionel, Master Davis told me to ask you if you managed to get the Epochal Seal." Marlow walked over from the side and asked, "From what I saw just now, Ms. Swenson seemed to be quite upset. What happened?" Indignantly, Lionel said, "Don't even get me started! A young couple snatched the Epochal Seal before I could. I nearly offended Ms. Swenson because of them!" Lionel clearly couldn't accept what Woody and Ginger had done. "Who could they be? How dare they snatch something from you?" Marlow anxiously said. Lionel turned back and pointed at Woody and Ginger. "It's those two!" Marlow instantly widened his eyes as his fury grew. "Damn it, it's them again!" "You know them?" Lionel asked. Marlow then told him about what had happened while exaggerating the details. "Not only did that brat manage to steal Master Davis' treasure, but he also embarrassed me in front of everyone. He even snatched your girl too!" Lionel gritted his t
"Hurry, put me on the Epochal Seal now!" The woman's voice was filled with excitement. She didn't try to hide the surprise in her tone. But Woody didn't move an inch. Instead, he calmly asked, "Who are you?" "Why are you playing dumb?" The woman grew impatient as she said, "I'm the ring on your finger! "Back then, you thought of everything you could to steal the ring from Alfie. Haven't you been trying to undo the formation just to do this? "Now that your chance has arrived, what are you waiting for?" Woody still wore a nonchalant look. "So, you're the ring then?" "Isn't that obvious?" the woman grumpily said. Woody frowned a little. Then, he bluntly said, "I'll give you another chance. Answer me after you think it through. "Are you sure you're the ring?" The woman didn't understand what nonsense Woody was talking about. She was a mysterious power hidden within the ring. The ring was just an object, but she was alive!Of course they were different! "You—" The wom
"Once he became powerful enough, he'd be able to break the seal for me. That was my ultimate goal." But Alexia didn't tell Woody the full truth. The truth was that once Alfie possessed the amount of power required to break the seal, she would take over his body and cultivate it. In short, Alfie was just a tool for her. And after she was done using him, he would have no reason to continue living. Woody frowned a little and asked, "What's the deal with the Epochal Seal?" Alexia seemed to have given up now. She didn't resist anymore as she explained, "A part of the Epochal Realm is sealed within it. "Although it's barely one ten-thousandth of the Epochal Realm, it contains immense power that could help me break the seal. I would then be able to restore my true form!" Woody immediately asked, "It could help you restore your original power?" "I was thinking that regaining even one percent of my original power would be good enough!" Without thinking twice, Alexia said, "My di
"I'm the Princess of the Epochal Realm and the rightful heir of the Celestial Fox bloodline! How dare you look down on me?"Do you have any idea how huge the Epochal Realm is? You'd be terrified if I told you! It's thousands of times larger than your planet Earth. Any denizen there could wipe out the entire human race. "All of these innumerable powerful beings are my loyal subjects who serve me willingly!" Alexia was clearly angry. She yelled as she ranted on, "You're just a mortal who has no idea how the world is! How dare you belittle me? "You're the demon here! Your whole family are petty demons! "With just a flick of my finger, I could change the color of heaven and earth, dim the sun and moon, destroy the mountains and the seas—" Woody snickered and cut her off, saying, "Sure, the sea is right outside. Why don't you try destroying it then?" "Ugh!" Alexia was speechless. Judging from her heavy panting, Woody could tell that Alexia was infuriated. However, Woody kep
Since Alexia had made a choice, she had to pay the price for it. Besides, she was asking for Woody's help. And because of that, she was willing to accept her fate. Anyone trapped inside a ring for a thousand years would grow to become less stubborn. This wasn't surprising. "I swear that I'll fulfill my promise. If I don't, I'm willing to be struck by thunderbolts and never get the chance to reincarnate!" Alexia made that promise to show her sincerity. Satisfied with her response, Woody finally pulled the ring out of his finger and placed it on the Epochal Seal. The ring vibrated a little. Then, it surprisingly began floating by itself, hovering a foot above the seal. At the same time, countless rays of light exploded from within the seal. Then, they turned into a vast source of pure energy and were absorbed into the tiny ring. With a slight hum, the ring radiated a bright light and illuminated the entire room and even shone out the window.But thankfully, they were on
"What? Are you going to repay my kindness with enmity and go back on your own promise?" Woody's face turned cold, and even his tone was icy. "How dare you?" Alexia was levitating mid-air now. She arrogantly gazed down at Woody. "What can you do even if I do go back on my promise? "You're just a mortal. How dare you try to negotiate with me and even talk to me in that tone? How disrespectful! "It would be too easy for me to kill you!" The more Alexia spoke, the more arrogant she became. When she was born into the world, her arrival had caused supernatural occurrences. Purple light had pierced through the clouds as she was bestowed with blessings from heaven. As the next leader of the Epochal Realm, the Celestial Foxes had high hopes for her ever since she was a child. She was prodigious and talented. And in just a few hundred years, she was already halfway on the road to immortality. This made many powerful beings envious.And because of this, everyone—including everyone
Alexia remained arrogant and proud. She snorted and said, "I held myself back just now and only used half of my power! You won't be so lucky next time!" She then raised her right hand as strands of pure energy started to gather in it.Her pale green dress billowed even without wind. The princess had clearly become infuriated. She wasn't exaggerating when she said that she'd only used half of her power earlier. Now, this was her true power. "You're practically asking me to beat you into submission. Since you like suffering, I'll grant you your wish!" After that, Alexia struck Woody with her palm again. As her palm brushed across the air, it produced faint rumbles. However, Woody didn't panic. Suddenly, an object appeared in his hand. It was none other than the Jewel of Prosperity. As it exuded golden rays of light, the Golden Spell, Evil-repelling Spell, and Protection Spell were all manifested at the same time! While the Protection Spell served as a defensive s
"From now on, I'll do anything you ask me to do, Master." Alexia knelt on the ground as her body trembled. Clearly, she was admitting defeat and trying to show her sincerity. She added, "If I don't follow your orders, you can kill me anytime!" Woody was still holding onto the Jewel of Prosperity. He let out a snort and said, "You're doing this again. You make vows so easily. "Can I still trust you after you went back on your word earlier?" Hurriedly, Alexia said, "I, Alexia Popp, swear on my title as the Princess of the Epochal Realm! "If I dare to go back on my promise again, the whole of the Epochal Realm will be destroyed by thunderbolts, and billions of my subjects will get tormented! "Believe me, this is the worst vow that could ever exist in the Epochal Realm. It is a vow that I would never dare to violate. "The three spells in your Jewel of Prosperity are specifically designed to subdue demons like me, so I wouldn't dare to lie to you." Alexia had finally been
Solomon didn't dare to resist and could only comply.By the time everyone arrived at the back of the mountain, the sky was already starting to lighten.Directly ahead lied a deep canyon with steep cliffs.Woody tied one end of the rope to the bridge pillar, slung the coil of rope over his shoulder, and nodded to the people around him."Is there something wrong?" Woody asked the battered elder.The elder quickly responded, "No problem!"Woody pushed off with one foot, launching himself into the air toward the other side of the cliff.While Woody was halfway through the flight, his body began to plummet downward.From this angle, he didn't stand a chance of making it across.At that moment, a giant eagle swooped in from the side.The elder stood at the edge of the cliff and blew the eagle whistle.The giant eagle spread its wings, and with Woody stepping onto its back, they instantly shifted from falling to ascending.In the next moment, he landed steadily at the edge of the
Woody's bold statements echoed throughout the entire Martial Arts Union Headquarters.In the past, if anyone dared to speak to their union president like that, Solomon wouldn't even need to say anything–the followers alone would leave the person questioning their life choices!In front of the Headquarters, how could he be allowed to speak recklessly?The current situation was that Woody not only said something, but also tore down their gate and injured dozens of their people.Of course, this number wasn't set in stone.If anyone else dared to step up, Woody certainly wouldn't hold back and was more than willing to help the Martial Arts Union continue increasing the number of casualties."You... have quite the attitude!"Solomon, being the union president of the alliance, held a certain standing and position, so it was unlikely for him to just back down easily.In reality, he had been feeling extremely anxious for quite some time.The eight seasoned elders teamed up and still c
He didn't want anyone to mention it, especially in public."Where are the eight elders?" Solomon's eyes were filled with rage as he shouted loudly."Here!" The eight elders spoke in unison, giving their response."That person destroyed our place and harmed our followers; he should be struck down on the spot to serve as a warning to others," Solomon said through gritted teeth.The eight elders responded in unison, "Yes, sir!""Attack!"The eight of them were all masters of martial arts who had reached the Peak level.They had impressive performance!At the headquarters, in terms of both status and strength, they were second only to Solomon.Even the legendary Martial God wouldn't stand a chance against the combined strength of these eight individuals.They coordinated seamlessly, surrounding Woody and launching a flurry of fierce attacks from all directions.If it were someone else, they would have been torn apart by them.Woody remained calm, letting his mind wander for a m
In the darkness, countless shadows darted back and forth.When they clearly saw that the gateway, which symbolized the Martial Arts Union, had been destroyed and was now nothing more than a pile of rubble, they were immediately filled with rage."Who dared to be so bold and fearless!""How dare you tear down the Martial Arts Union's gate? You're asking for trouble.""Whoever it is, they're definitely not a good person. Let's deal with them thoroughly first and ask questions later!"A crowd filled with anger saw what appeared to be a figure standing in front of the ruins."Hey kid, did you see who did it?"A sharp-eyed person noticed that the figure was a young man and immediately started questioning him."I'm warning you, this situation is serious. You need to tell everything you've seen, or else you'll face the consequences."Woody stood calmly and said, "I saw it.""Come on, who is it?" a group of people demanded in unison.Woody said calmly, "That's me!""What?!"The gr
Rudolf immediately became anxious. He shielded his granddaughter, Penny, while loudly rebuking, "Mr. Edwards, is this really how your Martial Arts Union treats guests? If word gets out, we won't be afraid of becoming the laughingstock of our peers in the martial arts community!"Solomon was completely unfazed. "You think you're worthy of being called guests?"Faced with a large group of people who were eyeing them aggressively, the three of them were no match at all.It was quickly dealt with!"Solomon, aren't you worried that Mr. Snider's disciple, Woody, will come looking for trouble if you do this?" Rudolf shouted loudly while struggling.Solomon couldn’t care less. “If he dares to come, I will make sure he gets a taste of being a prisoner! The person you were taught by is no good, so it's likely you won't be any better. It's fitting that you pay off your teacher's debt. Let both the old man and you face the consequences together!"What's all the fuss about Woody? He's just a
Solomon was using very offensive language.Miranda had a cold look on her face, but since she was on someone else's turf, she couldn't act out.Jaycee was actually Solomon's sister, and there was an age difference of over twenty years between them.After Jaycee was born, her parents passed away due to illness. Before their death, they entrusted her, still an infant, to the care of Solomon.Solomon had a hard time raising his younger sister by himself. Now, as he watched her grow into a beautiful and talented young woman, she was becoming increasingly admired by people in the martial arts community.There were so many people trying to arrange marriages with the Edwards family that they practically wore down the doorstep from their frequent visits.Solomon was overwhelmed with options, dreaming of his sister marrying into a wealthy family and securing a beautiful marriage.Dreams shattered!Jaycee, who was as fresh and naive, ended up being paired with someone considered old and
To be honest, Woody was quite intrigued.Every time he got into a scuffle with the underlings, he couldn't help but deeply miss Alexia.The esteemed Princess of the Epochal Realm was clearly being used by him as a henchman.The key point is that Alexia wasn't upset at all; instead, she was quite happy to help."No way."Reason overcame impulse, and Woody frowned as he said, "You have to stay at home. Only then can I be at ease."Alexia's expression fell. "Alright then!"Woody laughed and said, "You're being so obedient, I must reward you for that.""What kind of reward?" Her ears perked up with excitement, and her eyes were sparkling.Woody pulled a serpent's core of his pocket and said, "I promised you a gift earlier, and now I'm making good on that promise."Alexia's eyes lit up with excitement again. "The serpent's inner core!"In the past, she would not have paid any attention to the inner core of this quality.Every extra look is an insult to the title "Princess of the
Edwin was, of course, unconvinced! As the teacher, he had failed, but the student had succeeded on the first try. If it wasn't sheer luck, then what was it? Woody didn't respond and picked up a second heavenly crystal. Moments later, he succeeded again! Edwin's eyes widened in amazement, as though he witnessed something truly extraordinary. Meanwhile, the admiration on Alexia's face skyrocketed. "Try it again!" Edwin was still unwilling to accept it. This time, Woody didn't humor him and directly put away the remaining heavenly crystals. "What's the meaning of this?" Edwin widened his eyes. Woody stood up to leave and without looking back, he said, "Thanks!""Wait, are you sure you've fully mastered it?"Edwin hurried after him and said, "What if something goes wrong? I can help you figure it out!""No need. If my master believes he's fine, then he's definitely going to be fine," Alexia said, blocking the old man and speaking with solemn assurance. At that moment, Edwin's
Edwin stiffened his neck, trying to maintain a normal expression to cover up his embarrassment as his earlier demonstration had ended in failure. Although he knew the method, his lack of practice over the years had led to a mistake, which was understandable.""Ha..." Alexia let out a big yawn, her eyelids feeling as though they were weighed down by a thousand pounds; she was getting sleepy!Edwin's lengthy lecture had successfully bored her into a drowsy state. As for the later parts of the lesson, it didn't register in her mind at all; everything he said went in one ear and out the other, leaving no trace behind. "Carry on…"Alexia stretched lazily signaling for the two of them to continue without being affected by her. This left Edwin feeling utterly defeated! He felt as though he had been slapped in the face! Putting a student to sleep was already embarrassing enough, but to make matters worse, his demonstration had also failed. "It's fine, let me try." Woody volunteered.
