Nox held Silas' arm in a vice grip. Inscrutable, he said, "Touch her, and I will kill you."

"What did you say?" Silas laughed mirthlessly. "Who the fuck do you think you are? Talk to me like that, an—"

He never finished the sentence. Nox flung his arm, and Silas was sent flying back, a stream of blood arcing through the air. He slammed into the door and made a hole in it. Then, he fell with a thud.

Queenie was shocked, and so were Silas' bodyguards. The bodyguards quickly snapped out of it and held up their bloodied employer. "Mr. Joshton!"

Silas' chin was covered in blood, his face contorted in pain. After he got up, he wiped the blood off his lips and roared, "You bastard! How dare you hit me? Guards, get him! I want that cur dead!"

Silas' bodyguards charged into the house, but then bangs and crashes echoed in the air. Barely ten seconds had passed since the bodyguards went into the house, and they were sent flying back out, howling in agony.

All of them were injured—they eithe

    Once again, Queenie's father misunderstood the whole thing, so Queenie could only try to explain herself. "No, Dad, listen to me. I didn't do—""You're still trying to explain yourself? Do you know no shame? Tell me, then. Who is this man? Why was he at the beach with you, and why is he at your home now?" George pointed at Nox angrily.Queenie had no idea how to explain this."Listen here, girl. Your mother got so mad last night she fainted twice! And because of you, Centersea has cut off all partnerships with us!"If you still want to be part of the family, you're coming home with me. If you stay with this bastard, you'll never be allowed back in the family again!"George stormed off after screaming at Queenie, who was now at a loss. She turned around and looked at Nox, but in the end, she tearfully got ready to leave.Nox finally spoke. "Hold on."The mere voice of Nox fueled the Sanderses' fury, and they swiveled around, their faces contorted with rage.George felt enraged at the si

    Everyone in Riverton knew Empire Corp. The owner was the richest man in the city, and he had connections with Zone: Draco. Most of its business was done with the military.A skyscraper with 88 stories stood right in the middle of Riverton, where the hustle and bustle happened. This was Empire Corp's headquarters. Just then, a taxi stopped by the entrance.Someone opened the door, and out came the muscular, majestic Nox. He looked at the building before him and strode ahead. A group of suited guards stood around the outer ring of the building. Due to its business dealings with the military, unauthorized personnel could not enter this place.The moment Nox reached the front door, a guard came up to him. "Hi, unauthorized personnel are not allowed entry. Please leave."Nox looked at the guard. "I'm looking for someone.""You're looking for someone? Sorry, but you can't enter without any appointments," the guard said again.Nox frowned, but he didn't yell at the guard. Of course comp

    The man smiled at Annie. "Hello, Miss Annie."Annie approached him. "Where's my father, Mr. Laws?"Ferguson Laws was the head steward for the Weeks family. He smiled. "He's inside, holding a memorial service.""For whom, Mr. Laws? Why did he leave his company unattended for days just to do this?"Ferguson smiled. "Do you really not know, Miss Annie?"Annie shook her head."Do you remember the news a few days ago? About how Lord Nox died in the Ocean of Death?"Annie paused for a moment. She said, "Of course. He alone destroyed the ambition of the invaders from the ten nations and made them sign a ceasefire. Everyone in Faeast knows of him.""Then, you should know that he has fallen in battle, despite his victory against the invaders," Ferguson continued.After a short pause, Annie realized who the memorial service was for. "So, you're saying the memorial service is for Lord Nox?""That is correct." Ferguson nodded with a smile. "You know it was all thanks to Lord Nox that our family ma

    Annie had never seen her father look so flustered before. She said, "This belongs to a young man waiting at our company.""Young man? What young man?" Alexander asked again, wasting no time."I don't know. The guard told me he wanted to see you. He said you'd understand everything once you saw this junk."Alexander felt his whole being tremble. Another minute later, he blurted, "Tell me where he is right now.""He's at the company's entrance.""Quick, take me to him!" Alexander charged out of his study like a madman, leaving Annie flabbergasted."What's wrong with Dad? It's just some junk. Why does he look so excited?"…Nox was speechless. He was going to show the token to Alexander himself, but a woman took it away after a bout of misunderstanding. The guard told him that the woman was none other than Alexander's daughter, Annie.Since his token had been taken away and he heard from the guards that Alexander hadn't been coming to the company for days, Nox had no choice but t

    Annie wanted to go with them as well, but Alexander said, "Annie, you and everyone else stay here. I need to talk to our guest alone."Disgruntled, Annie grunted, but she glared at Nox. She thought, 'What's so special about him? Why is Dad giving him the VIP treatment?'Nox followed Alexander into his private study. The first thing Nox saw was the memorial tablet in the center of the study. 'In memory of Lord Nox.'Nox approached the tablet and stared at it for what felt like an eternity."Milord, I humbly greet you." Just like that, the richest man in Riverton knelt with a thud behind Nox.Nox did not turn around. Coolly, he asked, "You know who I am?""Of course. I have never seen you in the flesh, but I know that token. That is your symbol, milord. No one can possess that item but you," Alexander said carefully.A long silence later, Nox slowly turned around. "Stand.""Yes, milord." Alexander got back up on his feet. He couldn't hide his ecstasy, however, and he was tremblin

    Alexander racked his head, but he had no idea what that family was. A while later, he shook his head. "Apologies, milord. I have never heard of that family.""It doesn't matter. They are but a small family in this city, and this little favor stemmed from what they did." Nox told Alexander about the Sanders family, though he made it brief.Alexander got the gist of it right after that. He wasn't the richest man for nothing, after all. "I see. What would you wish for me to do, milord?" Alexander asked.Nox smiled. "The puny Sanders family would sacrifice their daughter's happiness and subject her to a marriage of convenience for mere pennies. Send your men to liberate her from her prison. Do not let the Sanderses torment her. If anyone does, you don't need to spare their lives.""Understood, milord. I shall be issuing orders right away."Nox nodded."Milord, do you need my services in any other matter?" Alexander asked respectfully.Nox waved his hand. "Nothing at the moment, but to keep

    Ever since Queenie was taken back to the Sanders Residence, she had been locked up in her room. A woman's voice came from that room. "You're going to give me a heart attack someday, Queenie. Why did you do that? Why did you go on a vacation with a total stranger? And why did you take him to your place?"The voice belonged to Queenie's mother—Yvette Crystals."And who is that man? When did you two start to date?"Queenie couldn't take the barrage of questions anymore. "Mom, I've told you. I don't know him. We're not dating. He's just a stranger I fished out of the sea.""You're still lying to me even now?" Yvette was furious. With a heavy heart, she said, "Queenie, I raised you. You are not the kind of girl who'd lie to me. What happened to you?"Queenie smiled bitterly and shook her head in resignation."You just crossed the whole family, and your lover beat Silas up. What should we do now?""That was not my fault, Mom. Silas went too far," Queenie protested."He went too far?

    Hogs had always been the dominant one in the family, and now, the chance for George to make a turnaround had arrived. If his daughter could marry Silas, he could finally have the upper hand, but his daughter brought humiliation to him instead."I'm sorry, Hogs. I'll make sure you and the family are happy with the outcome of this matter."Hogs sneered, "And how will you do that? Centersea has canceled all partnerships with us, and our company's going to be in a standstill. How will you make it up to us?"George sighed. "Don't worry, Hogs. I'll apologize to Silas.""And what good will that do? He already saw your daughter's lover, and the bastard even beat him up. I heard that he's still in the hospital," Hogs said sternly.Jezebiah sneered, "I never pegged Queenie as someone that wild, uncle."Despite the insults, George could only hang his head low."If we lose this marriage, I will have to take drastic measures on you, brother.

    "You're going nowhere! Die!" The Sovereigns chased after the spirit, and a hundred rulers followed. They trapped the Titan's spirit and ripped him to shreds."Holy shit! That's the ancient Faeastian Sovereigns for you!" White Tiger roared with pride. He was on the roof of a tower somewhere.Emperor Elijah narrowed his eyes and exchanged a look with the other Sovereigns. He hurled the remaining essence of the Titan's spirit to White Tiger and stuffed him with it. The energy filled White Tiger up, and he ballooned. Black, rancid energy came out of his body, and he fell into madness.Nox cast Heaven's Demise and sealed White Tiger's consciousness. The Ice Temple Lord, realizing what the Sovereigns were trying to do, encased White Tiger in a coffin of magic ice."This is an impressive underling you have, Nine-State Lord. Devouring spirits gives him power. Anyone else would've lost their minds and become a killing machine, but White Tiger's already mad to begin with. There's no further

    "The third kind of Emperor uses natural energy, the power of Yin and Yang, and the elements to become one. Since they use all kinds of elements and energy to become an Emperor, they are practically invincible."The Ice Temple Lord was excited. "So, you're saying I'm the strongest kind of Emperor?"Nox was speechless. "No, what I was trying to say was you took the wrong path. You could've absorbed the energy in the heavens, but you absorbed the Yin energy in the ground. You're stronger than Frostmir, but his level was higher, so you'd still be no match for him." Nox pursed his lips."Eh?" The Ice Temple Lord was disappointed. He thought he could be on par with Nox once he became an Emperor. The Ice Temple Lord wasn't the only one who gained power. The Ice Temple cultivators did as well. Black Tortoise, White Tiger, and Vermilion Bird gained a lot of power, too.Vermilion Bird was now a Flawless Supreme, Black Tortoise was an Advanced Supreme, while White Tiger was an Intermediate Pi

    The fact that Nox could cast Sovereign Seal showed the Ice Temple Lord a new level of power. The Sovereign was more terrifying than the gods. 'No wonder they could rule the world in ancient times.'The ancient Sovereigns and rulers of Faeast attacked their enemies. The fate of Faeast gathered over their heads, piercing the clouds that hung over them. The weaker monsters were all slain, and Emperor Hans pierced the pharaoh with his spear, returning him to dust.Emperor Blade killed the god of another ancient civilization. The evil energy possessing them was purified. Moments later, the only gods left were the Titans. Unlike the possessed gods, the Titans were ancient cultivators.Even if they didn't master any spells or techniques, they'd trained their bodies to their absolute best. The Sovereigns and rulers didn't have much advantage against these enemies.These spirits were only summoned through the relics and the remnants of energy left within. Their bodies were gone, and their s

    The talismans were Magic Mountain's Forbidden Art, and Nox had fused them with Ultimate Sun Dragon Manual. Nox's mentors back in Mystia had taught him the Sovereign Seal earlier than expected.Their goal was simple. If Nox became the Sovereign, he could use the seal to command all the natural energy around him. If he didn't become the Sovereign, he would teach the Sovereign how to use the seal.The Sovereign Seal was a Saintly technique and the most ancient technique around. It was stronger than a Celestial technique.A golden seal brighter than the sun slowly rose into the air. It was the Sovereign Seal.As it appeared, natural energy gathered around it. The energy flew into the relics Brundela took from Faeast. Within a museum not open to the public, a bronze sword started to tremble as natural energy flowed into it. That got the attention of a professor."That sword belonged to Faeast's Emperor Elijah! What is going on?"A silhouette came out of the sword, and his aura was maj

    Back in the navy command center, Fergus got the drone footage of Brundela's latest development. There were a few generals from the Nox Army with him. They could see that the monsters in the capital were far stronger than the ones they took out."It's a pity the capital is too densely populated. We have the weapons, but we can't use them." Fergus slammed the table in frustration. Even if the capital were to fall into enemy hands and the people torn apart by the monsters, Fergus could not order his men to fire at the capital, or things would be bad for them.Fergus could only open fire if the monsters were in a no man's land."Commander Parrish, the lord has orders. We are to keep the waters guarded. Once the capital's crisis is over, we are to make our way to the port and give humanitarian aid," a Nox Army general said telepathically. He just got Nox's orders."Is that so? Then Nox can stop this crisis." Fergus' eyes shone. He had no idea what Nox was planning, but he was the Sovere

    Demons were walking the lands of Brundela. Legendary creatures were roaming the streets as if the end of days were here. The resurrected monsters were causing chaos everywhere. When the Titans showed themselves, despair washed over Brundela.There were too many monsters running around. Even after the Twilight Order and Ice Temple cultivators sent out everyone they had, it still wasn't enough to stop these creatures. The monsters went straight to the council hall, and so did the Titans.The Ice Temple Lord created a Magic Ice Formation and kept using Forbidden Arts and mystical artifacts to fend off the enemies. He had already done his best."You have to do something, Nine-State Lord. I can't hold on much longer!" the Ice Temple Lord said telepathically.Though monsters were about, they were not a threat to the Ice Temple Lord. he could leave anytime he wanted, but he had a deal with Nox. If he were to desert the battlefield, he would face a hell far worse than he could imagine late

    Their targets were the relics around the altars. The moment the whirlpool showed up, the black energy conjured black walls and kept Brundela on lockdown, cutting off all communications.Possessed by evil spirits, gods from ancient civilizations came back to life. In the underground graveyard, the dead came bursting out of their coffins, and skeletons with phantom flames flickering around them charged at the holy knights and James' secret agents.Nothing more needed to be said. The holy knights' leader led the charge. The other knights resolved to fight to the death as they battled the skeleton gods.James and his secret agents fired off at the enemies, but the bullets did nothing to the skeletons. All they managed was to light a big spark. Only grenades and howitzers could deal damage to them, and even then, the damage was light.The battle was fierce. Though the knights did not fear death, they were still weaker than the prehistoric gods. These skeletons were nigh invincible, and

    Nox was hovering higher than the Ice Temple Lord, and he got everyone's attention."Who's that?""It's a Faeastian!""My God, it's the Nine-State Lord!" Nox was known throughout Faeast and the world. Brundela's council members had recognized him the moment he showed up. They had nothing but fear for gods, yet Nox was the strongest man in the Mortal World, so they respected him.The clouds in Brundela's skies were hanging heavily over the ground, and the icy aura they radiated was making everyone shiver. Winter seemed to have come early for Brundela. The temperature was dipping fast.Back in the control center, intelligence agents were watching the surveillance footage closely, and they noticed the altar. The Twilight Order and Ice Temple cultivators were there, strengthening the altars' seal the best they could. There were soldiers guarding the altar as well.For some reason, the secret agents had a feeling something bad was going to happen. Murphy's Law, as they said.Suddenly,

    A sliver of energy flew out of the puppet and gathered natural energy around it. Then, the temperature rose at a blistering rate. Fortunately, Bard's reminder came just in time, and Vermilion Bird was prepared for this. She led her team away from the spot.A pillar of fire engulfed the building, and heat waves shot off in every direction, lethal and deadly. The light eventually faded, and all buildings in a few hundred yards were razed to the ground.If Vermilion Bird had killed the puppet without thinking just now, she would have lost all her men and suffered serious injuries. "That bitch! I'm going to make her into a human swine one day! I'll give her hell!" she cursed.Bard gasped. 'Yeah, women can be really terrifying.' Not one General was a normal person.This incident didn't escape Nox, of course. He saw it through his divine sense. "Heh, you can't fight the flow of history?
