Revenge of the Night Chapter 31 Convince
George was hesitating. He mused, 'If this man really is Alexander's godson, then Queenie really can find great success. Question is, is he really who he says he is?' George couldn't be sure about that.A long while later, George said, "Mr. Greenshade, worry not. If you and Queenie are really in love, we won't get in your way, but marriage is a big thing. I need some time to think this through. I promise you'll be satisfied."Nox looked at Queenie. Queenie knew she couldn't force her folks to make a decision right now, so she nodded."Please, Mr. Greenshade, have some tea. Queenie, meet me in my study. We need to talk." And he took Queenie away.George closed the door and pulled Queenie aside. "Tell me the truth, Queenie. Is he really the godson of Alexander?"Queenie lied, "Yes.""You're not lying?""No.""Odd. How'd you get in touch with an Empire Corp guy? I never knew about this," asked George curiously.Queenie scratched her head. "W-We met on a dating site.""A dating si
Revenge of the Night Chapter 32 Disbelief
"There's no way she knows someone that high profile."Hogs answered solemnly, "I share your sentiment, but you saw what happened. I think Alexander does know her.""So, you're saying Queenie hooked up with an Empire Corp guy?" Jezebiah said."I don't know, but if we cross Silas because of her, we're in for a lot of trouble.""That's obvious. We took his money, and we're this close to the contract signing."Hogs looked more displeased than ever. A long while later, he shot up. "Tap into every single connection we have and find out if Alexander does have a godson. As for me, I'm going to Centersea.""To see Silas?" Jezebiah asked.Hogs nodded. "Yes. I don't care if Queenie did hook up with Alexander's godson. Silas must know about this, or we're going to be in big trouble.""Got it. I'll make some calls."…Ever since Queenie started the lie, she sat around, waiting for the outcome of this ordeal. If she could bullshit her way out of this and cancel her marriage with Silas, she
Revenge of the Night Chapter 33 Raymond Thunders
"But Dad just told me Centersea is a partner of Empire Corp, and the bastard knows Alexander. We can't keep up this act any longer. He's going to find out, and when that happens, we're done for!" Queenie added fearfully. "Why don't you just run, Nono? While you still can."'She wants me to run?' Nox cocked his eyebrow."This isn't your problem in the first place anyway. If he finds out who you really are, you're going to have trouble knocking on your door. Nono, just listen to me and run!" Queenie dragged Nox, attempting to make him leave.Nox did not budge. "I told you, calm down. I'm here, so nothing's going to happen.""What are you two talking about? Queenie?" Queenie's parents came closer.It was awkward for Queenie, but Nox stepped in. "It's nothing, Mr. Sanders. We were just chatting."George grunted, but he said nothing more. Queenie was fidgeting, but Nox was unperturbed. Calm. Almost as if he really was the godson of Riverton's richest man.Queenie's mind was racing. '
Revenge of the Night Chapter 34 Mockery
"Just you wait, Queenie. And you too, you bastard. You'll rue the day you crossed me."A moment later, the motorcade came to a stop before the Sanders Residence. Out came a swarm of bodyguards in black. Then Silas, Hogs, and Jezebiah came out. Finally, Raymond made his appearance.Hogs led the way into the residence. "Follow me, Silas. Queenie and her cur of a lover is right inside."Silas tossed his cigar away, his eyes twinkling venomously, and he strode into the residence.Queenie, Nox, and Queenie's parents were in the lobby. Then, a wave of black came in. Queenie's parents shot up from their seats, staring at the Joshton bodyguards in shock.Queenie was watching as well, and she blanched. Nox, however, didn't even spare them a moment of his time. He was quietly finishing his cup of quality tea.A shout echoed in the air. "Get out here right now, Queenie!"Hogs, Jezebiah, and Silas came in. George quickly approached his brother."What's wrong, Hogs?"A sneer curled Hogs' li
Revenge of the Night Chapter 35 The Truth
Total, utter panic had settled in Queenie's heart. She saw no way out. This was just an act, to begin with, but she never thought Hogs and Jezebiah would search for Alexander's family tree right away and throw money at their connections to find out if Alexander had a godson.The secret could no longer be contained, and Queenie had no idea what to do.The silence was making George nervous, and he was almost going to pounce. "Tell me the truth, girl! Who is that man?!""If she won't tell you, I will. I've spent a ton of money to get this intel. Unfortunately, Alexander has no godson. He has a daughter, however. Only daughter. And Centersea is one of Empire Corp's business partners. Ask Silas if you don't believe me." Hogs sneered.Yvette and George were petrified, and then Yvette's legs buckled. She plopped to the ground like jelly. George was shivering in rage, his eyes crimson. "He's not Alexander's godson? You and the bastard tricked us? We're your family!"Queenie was tearing up
Revenge of the Night Chapter 36 A Promise
"That you'll never be pushed around. That you'll never be used as a chip to bargain. Put your trust in me, and I'll make you the happiest woman in the world. Forever."Queenie was stunned. She thought, 'He just feels so cool all of a sudden. His eyes are shining, and even his face is gleaming. Everything about him just screams, "I'm the king."' Queenie had never had anyone give her that kind of promise before."One last time, Queenie. Do you believe me? Will you take my hand?" Nox asked huskily, and he extended his hand.Queenie stared at his hand, her mind blank. Not a single man had ever given her that kind of promise before. None of them would ever do this for her. She wondered, 'But he's just an amnesiac. He has no idea who he even is. Who is he, really? Is he a good guy or a bad guy?'So many questions, yet so few answers. Still, when she stared into Nox's eyes, she felt secure. Safe. And she was starting to waver.Driven by her impulse and desire to escape her family's oppre
Revenge of the Night Chapter 37 Undefeatable
The bodyguards swung their weapons. A scared Queenie covered her face, but Nox did not even move. A sneer escaped his lips, and he brought his foot down to the ground with a slam.The bluestone tiles were crushed into smithereens.An invisible shockwave undulated across the battlefield, and groans of pain tore through the air as the bodyguards were sent flying. They fell with a sickening thud, none able to get back up.Hogs was in disbelief. 'Is he even human?' he wondered.Even Silas did not look as confident as he was before.Nox stood regally. "Anyone still want some?"Silas came up. "Remember me, punk?"Nox glanced at Silas."You slept with my woman, and now you're taking her away? Do you think I'm that much of a pushover? I'm telling you, you're not leaving this place alive!"He roared, "Raymond!"With a thud, a burly Raymond came forth. He smelled like sickly, metallic blood, and he had the eyes of a leopard, glaring at Nox darkly."My family has kept you for three year
Revenge of the Night Chapter 38 Promise Delivered
Raymond's other arm was broken as well. Everything happened in a flash. In mere moments, the once infamous murderer of the northern Tri-State area had his arms broken.Silas felt fear filling him up, and the Sanderses were stunned.Nox continued, "You want my arms and legs? Very well. I broke your arms, so I guess I'm going for your legs next." And he darted ahead, quick as a phantom. No one saw what he did, but they heard something getting crushed. Twice.A silhouette was sent flying like a cannonball, and it fell before Silas. The man was none other than Raymond, though his limbs were all broken. He was howling and screaming in agony.Just like that, the murderer fell, plunged into pain and agony. He was once the best enforcer of Silas' father, but now he was a cripple.Silas did not expect Raymond to be defeated so easily, and he took an involuntary step back.Nox looked at Silas. "Your turn." He slowly approached Silas.Fear was squeezing Silas' soul. "W-What do you want? I'

"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
Revenge of the Night Chapter 1985 Body Destroyed
"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
Revenge of the Night Chapter 1984 New Emperor
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
Revenge of the Night Chapter 1983 The Emperors
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
Revenge of the Night Chapter 1982 Sovereign Seal
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
Revenge of the Night Chapter 1980 Titans
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
