Revenge of the Night Chapter 128 Annie Meets Queenie
The mention of Queenie made Alexander speechless. He knew his daughter was smart, and now she found out who the lady was. Alexander just wanted to say this was a big mistake."Annie, you don't understand. I—"He was about to explain, but then a secretary came in. "Mr. Weeks, someone wants to see you."Alexander asked, "Who is it?""A lady by the name of Queenie Sanders."The mention of that name horrified Alexander, but Annie put on a cryptic smile. She thought, 'Speak of the devil.'Alexander felt awkward, but he had no choice. Queenie was his lord's partner. He would never show her any discourtesy. Quickly, he told the secretary, "Bring her in.""Of course," said the secretary.After the secretary was gone, Alexander told Annie, "Annie, it's not what you think. Whatever you're thinking, it's not it. Ms. Sanders is—"Annie interrupted, "It's alright, Dad. I'd love to see who the lady is. It's remarkable that my father would give her a billion-dollar diamond right after he saw

"My family's in the pharmaceutical business.""Is that so? Pharm's not in the best situation recently. How's your business going?""As you've said, pharm's not in the best state. But it's all thanks to Mr. Weeks. If not for him, my family would've gone bankrupt," said Queenie honestly.Annie shot a look at her father. Alexander felt more awkward than ever. He knew his daughter all too well. She had a sharp tongue and an even sharper mind. He could see Annie trying to interrogate Queenie, so he stepped in."Annie, she just came to our company. She's a guest, so stop questioning her." Alexander turned to Queenie. "Have a seat, Ms. Sanders. My secretary will come in with some coffee.""It's alright, Mr. Weeks. I came here today to thank you for all the help you've given me. I'd like to ask you out for a meal to thank you."'A meal?' Alexander thought. This was putting him in a dilemma. He was only nice to Queenie because of Nox. Now that she was asking him out for a meal, he would h
Revenge of the Night Chapter 130 A Call
Ever since the Battle of the Ten Nations, the people of Faeast thought Nox was dead, but he was actually alive.Alexander smiled dryly. He mused, 'You've already seen Lord Nox, my dear child. You just didn't realize it.' He wouldn't tell Annie that, of course.Annie winked at her father. "Take me along tomorrow, Dad.""And why should I do that?" Alexander rolled his eyes.Annie held her father's arm and started acting cute. "Aw, please, just this once, Daddy? I promise I'll just stay quiet and have my lunch. Please, Daddy?"Alexander could never resist this, so he said, "Fine, fine.""Thanks, Dad. I'll get back to work now," Annie said happily, and she left her father's office.Alexander saw Annie off, and he shook his head, smiling dryly.Nox was back at home, and Alexander called him. He picked it up. "Yes?""Milord. There is emergency news that I must let you know. Ms. Sanders has met me, and—"Before he could finish, Nox said, "She arranged for a lunch meetup, did she not
Revenge of the Night Chapter 131 To the Hotel
But before they could leave, George and Yvette came rushing after them. "Queenie, wait!"Queenie turned around in surprise. Her folks were dressed resplendently, especially her father. He even wore his Armani suit. It had been years since he wore that. Yvette was in a gown as well, and she was wearing a pearl necklace around her neck.Queenie looked at them in surprise. "What are you two doing?""You're going to have lunch with Mr. Weeks, aren't you? Your mother and I had a talk, and we decided to go with you.""What? You guys are coming with me?" Queenie was speechless."Yeah."Queenie quickly said, "Mom, Dad, I'm just going to thank Alexander. Why are you two coming with me?"Yvette smiled. "Don't worry, Queenie. We're just going to watch.""It's just lunch. There's nothing to watch." Queenie did not look happy at all.George pointed at Nox angrily. "We're just watching. Besides, if he can go, why can't we?"Queenie was frustrated. She only set up this lunch to talk things
Revenge of the Night Chapter 132 Entering the Hotel
George kept driving and finally stopped at the hotel's gigantic parking lot. Queenie and Nox then got out of the car. "Mom, Dad, I really can't take you along, so I'm sorry," said Queenie."It's alright," said Yvette. "Just meet up with Mr. Weeks and tell him we're thankful for his help.""Sure." Queenie was about to leave with Nox."Hold it," said George."What is it, Dad?" Queenie turned around."Queenie, why do you bring him along for the meetup?" George pointed at Nox.Queenie wouldn't tell George she was going to clear things up with Alexander. She knew her father all too well. If she let anything slip, George would never let Nox follow her.So, she lied, "He's there to stand guard for me. He's my bodyguard.""Your bodyguard?""Yeah. Dad, don't you remember? Nox can fight. With him by my side, I'll be safe."George looked at Nox with disgust, but it was true he could fight, and his daughter did get kidnapped last time. He said, "Fine. But Mr. Weeks is a big shot. Don't b
Revenge of the Night Chapter 133 The Big Parlor
And he too managed to make the ten nations give up nearly ten thousand miles of their land. The people of Faeast saw Lord Nox as their god, so Queenie knew of his stories. When she looked at the statue again, she muttered, "So that's Lord Nox."The waiter said, "Yes. The reason our hotel is named so is because the owner worships Lord Nox.""I see. No wonder it's called that," muttered Queenie. She was then reminded of the nation's mourning, and she lamented, "It's a pity he had fallen."Nox frowned. When he first heard of the hotel's name, he wondered why it had his name. And now his question was answered. He then looked at the statue of himself, and he muttered, "Looks hideous.""Come with me, please, Ms. Sanders." The waiter led Queenie and Nox to the parlor. The Great Banquet Hall was a luxurious place. The parlor was huge, and there was a pool, a bar, and various entertainment inside.Queenie stared at the parlor, her eyes wide. "You got it all wrong. I didn't reserve somethin
Revenge of the Night Chapter 134 The Lunch Begins
Alexander turned his attention to Nox and gave him a look of respect, but he said nothing so he wouldn't expose Nox's true identity.When Annie realized Nox was in there with Queenie, she frowned. "This guy again? Dad welcomed this guy himself last time, and he's the son of Dad's old friend? Why is he here?"Nox was calm and collected. Queenie, however, was awkward when she saw Alexander.Alexander smiled at Queenie. "Sorry for the tardiness, Ms. Sanders.""I don't mind, Mr. Weeks. You're too kind. And I'm sorry. I didn't think you'd be the owner of this establishment," said Queenie.Alexander laughed. "Don't mention it, Ms. Sanders. Is this parlor to your liking?""Very much so.""Good to hear. Please, take a seat."And Queenie sat. This was supposed to be her treat, but now it felt like Alexander was the one treating her to lunch. After everyone had taken their seats, Alexander said, "Serve the food."And then great food kept coming in. Once all the food was served, Queenie
Revenge of the Night Chapter 135 Annie's Rudeness
Annie, however, was unfazed. She wanted her question answered.Queenie answered calmly, "Ms. Annie, there is a misunderstanding. I am holding this lunch to thank Mr. Weeks, and I need to make things clear with him. I have a boyfriend."Annie asked, "So you're saying everything my father did was a waste?"Queenie said, "I am grateful for what he did, so I'll try my best to repay him.""And how will you do that?" Annie questioned.Queenie explained, "I know I don't have that capability for now, but trust me. Someday, I'll repay all the kindness Mr. Weeks has shown me. And it's my freedom to date and bring my boyfriend to this meetup."Annie was about to say something, but Alexander stepped in. "Annie, shut it. You are not to show any insolence to Ms. Sanders."Annie was flabbergasted. "What is going on, Dad? Why are you so nice to her? She's treating you to lunch, but she brought her boyfriend along. She's trying to embarrass you."Alexander roared in his mind, 'You stupid girl!

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
Revenge of the Night Chapter 1981 An Army of Monsters
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
Revenge of the Night Chapter 1979 Evil Spirits
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? You say that, Aphrodite, but you've done the same thing more than once. Schemes and plots when your ey
Revenge of the Night Chapter 1977 A Puppet
Aphrodite was a master manipulator. She knew the weaknesses of Nox's underlings, and she praised Bard, "At least you know where you stand, Bard. You never overreach. Though we failed to make you one of us, I still thought it'd be a shame to kill you."Bard smiled. "Oh, you're such an actor, Ms. Mousse. You know why we don't like you? Queenie is a genuine lady, just like our lord. You're far inferior to her. And don't flatter yourself. Of course, I know where I stand. I can't even reach the pinnacle of martial arts, let alone cultivation."No matter how smart I am, my lack of talents holds me back. I can never be made an important leader." He was only spared because he couldn't become a threat to the Mousses.Nox didn't use schemes because he didn't need them. Absolute power could trump any plot.Vermilion Bird clenched her teeth. "What is the meaning of this? The lord knows that the bitch is here?"Bard shook his head. Vermilion Bird was a smart woman, but Aphrodite made her lose
Revenge of the Night Chapter 1976 Aphrodite's Tactic
Aphrodite felt nothing but sorrow, and Vermilion Bird burst into laughter. "I expected nothing less from these people. Your men are just like their employers. Hey, knights, you guys want to find out more about Faeast martial arts? See those Mousse guys? They're masters. Deal with them."Vermilion Bird gave her orders. She knew these people would escape the moment she showed up. The knights flew off, going after the escaped Mousses. The Mousses were a family of warriors, while these knights were cultivators, to an extent. They wore mystical artifacts, and the Mousses' guys didn't have something like that.The battle was fierce but short. The Mousses' powerhouses were taken out, and the rest were dealt with by the Shadow Division."And now only you're left. Interesting, isn't it? Karma always bites you in the ass. You betrayed my lord, and now your men betray you. You deserve this," Vermilion Bird cursed."Yes, I deserve this, but as long as he wants to be the Nine-State Lord, then w
Revenge of the Night Chapter 1975 Cowards
'The beating heart of this land?' The woman's underlings looked grim. They were supposed to be the master tacticians here. Yet, Nox played them like a cheap kazoo. 'He's a far better tactician than we expected!'Nox began his counterattack not long after the Ocean of Death incident. This woman was none other than Aphrodite, Nox's old flame. When she saw Brundela's fate stabilizing, she knew right then that things had gotten out of her hands."Tell the Mousses in Eropa to retreat right away. There is no need to stay here any longer. He's not attacking us because he's waiting for us to do the same. The moment our men try to start anything, he'll swoop in and take them all out. "No one can beat him if he decides to go all the way. Not even me," said Aphrodite.Suddenly, the Mousses' powerhouse noticed something. "I sense bloodlust. Who goes there? Show yourself!" The powerhouses unsheathed their weapons and stood around Aphrodite, protecting her.A group of black silhouettes appeare
