Chapter 39 A Decision Made

Author: Lil Thorny Flower
Queenie fled her house, lied to her parents, watched as someone beat her father up, and now she was cutting ties with them. Never in her life had Queenie thought about committing any of those crimes, but here she was. She did everything in the span of a single morning.

Even when she was leaving the residence, her mind was blank, and she was shivering. Nox kept quiet all the way, though he was giving her concerned looks. He knew it was hard for someone to take in all of this at the same time.

The journey back to Pearl Residence was a silent one. When they came in, all the pressure and tension finally broke Queenie. Everything went black, and she fell.

Quickly, Nox held her up. He checked on her and heaved a long sigh of relief. "Just knocked out from all the pressure, that's all."

He took her to the bed and injected his inner energy into Queenie, and then he sat with her quietly, guarding her.

Queenie's cheeks gained a shade of red, tear tracks still lingering on her face. She look

    She started roaring at Nox, "I'm done for! I'm finished! I told you to leave, but you wouldn't! We got exposed, and now my folks disowned me! What should I do now?" She got sad again and cried.Quickly, Nox said, "If they're kicking you out, then I'm taking you in!""What are you talking about? What can you even give me? You lost your memories. My God, what was I doing? I can't believe I left my home and I held your hand in front of everyone!"Nox watched her cry for a while. "Don't tell me you're regretting this. It's not too late to back out."Queenie grabbed a pillow and smacked it on him. "Regret? What are you saying, Nox? You took me away, and now you're dumping me?"Nox was speechless. 'I am not dumping you,' he thought."Listen up, you amnesiac. I'm going to stay with you from now on, and there's nothing you can do about it! I don't care that you've lost your memories. I have nothing! My folks disowned me!"And once more, she got heartbroken.Nox grinned. 'Oh, so she did

    Nox smiled dryly. In his mind, he said, 'What on earth is she thinking? I'm not going to force myself on her. I'm Lord Nox.'But Queenie wouldn't know that. With her hands still on her hips, she said, "And no matter in or out of the house, I call the shots. Don't try to bully or yell at me. And I can't cook, clean, or do the laundry. That's the servant's job, so don't try to make me do any chores."She continued, "And the most important thing is, if we do go further in this relationship, you can't see any other girl or cheat on me. I lost everything because of you, understand?"That reminded her of what happened earlier, and Queenie cried.Nox was close to bursting into laughter just seeing her cry, but he nodded. "Of course. Anything you say.""Really?" Nox's quick answer stopped Queenie's crying."Of course," said Nox lovingly."That's more like it. At least I didn't come with you for nothing." Queenie wiped the tears off her cheeks, but her eyes were still puffy from crying t

    Twenty minutes later, Queenie came out of the bathroom. She changed into a tracksuit, and her hair was tied in a ponytail. Gorgeous as ever. "I bet you're hungry, Nox. Let's go on a food hunt."Nox was hungry, so he nodded. They got into a taxi, and Queenie took Nox on a hunt for good food. They came to a restaurant called Bluewhale. It was one of its kind in Riverton and was only open for members. Most people could never get the chance to dine here.Queenie got themselves an expensive parlor and ordered all her favorite foods. In her words, food could cure any bad mood, so she wanted to have a feast.The feast was served a moment later, and Queenie dug in. The meal went on for an hour, and Queenie rubbed her belly in contentment. "A full belly. Did you have your fill, Nono?""Yeah," Nox said."Let's go home.""Sure.""Waiter, give us the bill."A waitress came with a bill. "Hi, your total comes up to 1200 dollars."Queenie wasn't fazed by the total. She took out a gold card a

    Queenie heaved a long sigh. "Great. Thank you." Just like that, she glossed over the matter, but she had to leave her Mini at the restaurant.When she and Nox came out, she heard the waitresses talking about them. "They don't look poor. Why'd they even leave their car with us over a bill?""It's a big world out there."The comments hurt Queenie's pride.Night was falling quickly, and the winds of the fall season were chilly. Queenie was walking ahead while Nox followed her. Queenie only had her bag, phone, whatever stuff she had on her, and the items in Pearl Residence. Nox had not a cent to him.It was a silent journey back home. And a long one, too. It took them about forty minutes to return, and the first thing Queenie did was scour the whole place for cash she used to throw around.Even after all her searching, she only found about 450 dollars. Queenie stared at the paltry sum of cash and plopped onto the ground. "Oh no. We don't even have enough money to get the car back."

    Alexander was on the other end of the line. He quickly said, "Milord.""I require some money tomorrow, Alex. Send it to Pearl Residence."Without thinking, Alexander said, "Of course, milord. Do you need my assistance with anything else?""Yes. A small favor. I need you to find out the current head of Sanders Holdings and everything related to the company. As fast as you can, if I may add," said Nox."Of course, milord. I will send my men right away.""Good. That is all. Good night." Nox hung up, and he looked at the second floor. Queenie's room was still lit, and he smiled.…The next morning, Nox was already standing at the entrance of Pearl Residence, waiting for Alexander.And then, a big motorcade came up to him. The car in the lead was a Rolls-Royce Phantom. Behind it was not one, not two, but four bizarre armored vehicles.A frown furrowed Nox's brows. "What in the nine hells is this?"The Rolls-Royce came to a stop, and Alexander hurried out of the car. He trotted up

    Alexander chuckled. "For you, milord, I can give up anything. Even my family's wealth.""Alright, I don't need any brown-nosing right now." Nox didn't decline the offer further. "I'll take this card then."Alexander watched him take the card, and he grinned.Nox tucked the card away. "And is there any progress on the intel gathering regarding Sanders Holdings?"Quickly, Alexander answered, "Yes. Their current head of family and operations is one Hogs Sanders. Sanders Holdings has its main business in pharmaceutical manufacturing, but with the market's decline in recent years, it is now facing a bankruptcy crisis."Nox rubbed his chin. "I see. Alex, will it be a big ask for you to purchase that company?"Alexander answered, "You severely underestimate me, milord. Should I desire it, I can purchase a dozen companies of that scale in a day."Nox rolled his eyes again."However, milord, I must ask. Why do you take interest in a dwindling company?" Alexander's business sense was kic

    She changed into a fresh set of clothes and went downstairs. Nox was playing with Blackshark, but Queenie said, "Nono, I need you to come with me. I have something to ask."Nox approached her. Queenie took the Black Card out of her pocket and held it up with the envelope. "What is this?"Nox looked at the Black Card. "Some old fogey came this morning and said this was for you. There's some money in that account, and you can use it. I tucked it under your door while you were asleep.""Some old guy gave me money?" Queenie was surprised by the news. "What kind of old guy? What does he look like?" she quickly asked.Nox made up a story on the spot. Queenie was at a loss for words. She thought, 'First thing in the morning, and someone gave me a black card? There's money in the account? What kind of joke is this?'"Where's the old guy?" Queenie asked again."Left a while ago," answered Nox.Queenie stared at the card again, this time with more questions. Still, she was a pragmatic wom

    Queenie quickly said, "Hey, manager. I'll pay for the bill on my tab yesterday. Really sorry for what happened."The manager kindly smiled. "Don't worry about it." He asked a waiter to bring the POS terminal and the receipt.Since Queenie only had cash, she asked, "Can I pay with cash?"The manager paused for a moment. He said, "Sorry, it's either a card or online payment here."Things got awkward again for Queenie, but Nox stood ahead. "Give him the card, then."'Card? What card?' Queenie asked in her mind.The manager said, "The mister is right. Cards will be the best form of payment here." He showed Queenie the POS terminal.Queenie, however, did not look happy at all. She dragged Nox aside. "Are you stupid, Nono? My cards are all frozen. I don't have any card I can use."Nox smiled. "Yes, you do. You just got one this morning.""What, you mean the black card that old guy gave me?""That's the one."Queenie was speechless. She thought Nox had gone cuckoo. 'There's no way

    Nox unleashed his divine sense, scanning the entire perimeter of Imperia. The same scene repeated itself everywhere: borders littered with unconscious civilians, numerous car crashes, and many more trapped victims in desperate need of help."It looks like we need to break this damned formation first. Ugh, what a pain. And of course, we've got to locate the core before we can dismantle it," he muttered in frustration.The Soul Maze Formation was powerful—so much so that only those in the Legend Realm could traverse it unscathed. Imperia didn't boast many cultivators at that level, and those few were already occupied along the borders, rescuing civilians.Nox focused his Divine Sense and quickly pinpointed the core of the formation within minutes."There's a Sacred Realm guardian from the path of the ancient divine stationed at the core," Nox said telepathically to Cassian. "Grandpa, you and Kirin should head there. But don't rush—leave the rest to me."Nox's caution was clear—he di

    Aphrodite maintained her usual stoic demeanor, but behind the scenes, she said to White Tiger telepathically, "Being enslaved by Nox's soul technique? That's quite the excuse. Surely, you know I'm naturally immune to soul techniques?"White Tiger scoffed and shot back telepathically, "They'd have chopped you into pieces by now if I hadn't done some fast talking! Do me a favor and behave yourself for once, or I'll handle you personally before they could even get the chance."Despite his grumbling, White Tiger couldn't help but feel a mix of envy and frustration over Aphrodite's extraordinary immunity. It was said that if someone's mind was honed to an unparalleled level, they could naturally resist soul techniques. Aphrodite had truly reached such a pinnacle of intellect.Aphrodite assumed command of the Nox Army as Nox's soul technique had seemingly bound her to him. She immediately ordered them and the nearby forces to retreat, leaving only the Sword Sect of Magic Mountain behind

    Kirin and White Tiger had already entered Nox's room, only to freeze at the sight of his stormy expression. Trouble was clearly brewing."Milord, what happened?" White Tiger asked cautiously, lowering his head as if trying to shrink out of sight.Could this be about them swindling Aphrodite? But they had lost everything all night long—wasn't that punishment enough?Nox announced, "Imperia has gone dark. I can't reach Azure Dragon or the others. White Tiger, contact the military zone immediately and arrange for a military aircraft. I need to leave for Imperia right now!"White Tiger instantly tensed at the news. Imperia suddenly going dark, combined with Cassian's imminent return to reunite with Penelope, felt too coincidental. Could someone be targeting the Greenshade family?"Damn those scoundrels! Understood, milord. I'll get everything ready!"He rushed off to make the arrangements.Meanwhile, Aphrodite's telepathic voice reached Nox. "Stay calm. It's not as dire as it seems.

    Nox felt choked by the sheer emotion he was feeling. Sometimes, even a thousand promises couldn't compare to the simple vow of staying together in life and death."Don't worry. There's no one in this world capable of killing me," he reassured her with a smile. All the talk about ruling the Nine States and Five Domains or becoming the emperor of the world paled in comparison to having the one he loved by his side.The destroyer ship made its way back to Faeast's inner harbor. Nineve eagerly led the group to the largest shopping mall in the area as soon as they disembarked.The marines quickly found themselves acting as her personal attendants, lugging bags upon bags of purchases. The spree lasted the entire day, only stopping when the mall finally closed for the night.Later that evening, Nox was watching a live news broadcast in the hotel.The screen showed an official spokesperson from Faeast addressing the issue of piracy on the high seas. The statement carefully emphasized the

    As the Temple Lord of the Beast Temple, Kirin was none other than the auspicious beast Kirin itself.On the other hand, Mufasa, while known as the temple's guardian, was, in cruder terms, little more than a servant to the golden lion. His master, the golden lion, paled in comparison to the Kirin in both cultivation level and bloodline.Simply put, if the golden lion were present, it would have to kneel before Kirin."What now? Why'd you drag me out? Couldn't you deal with it yourself? You're so annoying! I was just having a great chat with my students," Kirin grumbled, clearly irritated.However, he immediately shut his gob after receiving a hard whack on the head from Nox."I called you out to ask if you could gather the beasts of the Beast Temple. Tell them to withdraw from Mystia and return to Faeast for the time being. I foresee a war with the path of the martial brewing soon, and I'll need a fully armed force of sacred beasts," Nox said, his piercing gaze fixed on Kirin."Ca

    Faeast's rise was inevitable. This belief was absolute and unshakable!At that moment, Aphrodite came to a realization that so long as she and Nox had no romantic ties, their hearts could truly be in sync.Love brought complications such as resentment and division. But without personal emotions clouding their judgment, everything they did would be for the nation alone. Take this moment, for example. The intricate trap she had laid was no longer just a scheme. Rather, it had become a necessary move to safeguard Faeast. By nightfall, the destroyer arrived at the island where Voltaic resided. Before the ship even came to a stop, Voltaic stepped onto the water, striding across the waves with Mufasa by his side. With effortless grace, he leaped onto the bow, landing before Nox on the deck. "You old bastard, what's your deal? When I tried reaching out before, you acted like you were deaf. Now that I've shown up, you're all smiles and warm welcomes? What's that supposed to mean?" No

    Just then, several pirate ships appeared on the horizon. They were from Capwave Island. Now, Nox had every reason to suspect that these pirates were nothing more than pawns, a smokescreen used by the elites of the island nations to cover their tracks. "Milord, those guys have their eyes on us. What's the call?" the captain asked. "My rule is simple. If they make a move, fire. Wipe them out. But you're the captain, so I'll leave the decision to you," Nox said. The university students onboard were all fired up, ready to take action without a second thought. The captain, mindful of the number of civilians on board, decided to attempt communication first. He picked up the radio to send a warning to the pirates.The deafening roar of jet engines ripped through the sky. A sudden transmission cut into their frequency. The voice on the radio was firm and unmistakable. "This is the Faeast Air Force. We have orders to escort your vessel. Stand by." Above them, fighter jets h

    Nox first checked on Cassian. After realizing he was fine and had only collapsed out of exhaustion and loss of life essence, Nox turned to lead a group of men toward the port. The mystical artifact sealing off the island had been retrieved. The isolated island would finally see the light of day once more! Nox had just arrived at the port when he was surrounded by a pack of students. Somehow, they found out their savior was Lord Nox of Faeast. They were all insistent on meeting him. "We just knew Faeast would save us!""Our savior is actually Lord Nox! We will surely study hard to repay Faeast!"They were young and impulsive. In their eyes, Nox was sent to rescue them as Faeast knew they were in danger. Hence, they were overwhelmed with emotions. Nox stared at them with a guilty look in his eyes. He had not even known they were kidnapped. Due to that guilt, he agreed to take a group photo with the students even though he disliked appearing before the public eye. The enti

    "Zeller, you'll be brought to justice!"With a twist of his fingers, thousands of swords appeared out of thin air and swung at Zeller.Without any techniques he could use, Zeller had to risk his life to block and dodge every blow sent his way. However, his body gave up after a few hundred strikes, and his body was torn apart.Shaken to his very core, Zeller tried to make a retreat."Where are you going? Quintuple Lightning, awaken the divine tempest!"As deafening thunder roared through the sky, countless bolts of lightning struck down at Zeller's dark spirit, killing him.One of the best evil cultivators died just like that.His death also sounded the death knell for the Celestial Ordinance's Abode that had been causing chaos in Faeast for centuries.The Marine Corps gazed at Nox with passionate excitement in their eyes.This was their lord, someone who was stronger than Cassian!Nox turned around to find the remaining elites crying in despair.
