Chapter 53 Twelve Million

Author: Lil Thorny Flower
They could sell the company for cheap, but no one in their right mind would take it, yet Empire Corp themselves were doing something this crazy. Hogs took a deep breath.

"Mr. Laws, please come with me. We'll talk over tea."

Ferguson waved him down. "We shall skip that. My employer has given me his command. The sooner we settle this purchase, the better."

Ferguson pointed at the bespectacled man. "This is our CFO, Mr. Larson. He has gained all the necessary intel regarding your company. All that's left is the price offer. If the offer is fair, we shall proceed with the transaction."

Mr. Larson smiled.

Hogs couldn't believe the CFO himself was here. He wondered, 'Wow, they are fast. Not the top company in Riverton for nothing. But what offer should I make? The company has made losses every year. It's not even worth a few million. And we owe the workers three months of pay.'

Hogs was wondering about the offer he should make. A moment later, he said, "This is a big decision to make,

    Hogs was about to quote a lower price, but Ferguson said, "My employer dislikes the act of haggling, and he prefers having fives in his pricing. He is making an offer of 15 million for your company. Is that fine with you?"'15 million?' Hogs thought he was hearing things. 'Dear gods, that's a huge haul. Even at its peak, the company was only worth around that price, and now it's bankrupt, but Empire Corp is making a peak offer.'Buzzing with excitement, Hogs said, "Yes, of course. More than fine, actually."Jezebiah was grinning from ear to ear. He thought, 'Well, we just made bank.'"Can you sign the share transfer, then?" Mr. Larson held up his suitcase and whipped out the contract.Hogs quickly said, "Of course. Let me."Just as he was about to sign the papers, Ferguson said, "Mr. Sanders, I'm afraid you cannot sign the papers.""What?" Hogs was stunned.Ferguson smiled. "My employer has decreed that only Ms. Queenie Sanders can sign the papers for this purchase."The menti

    The news of her permanent exile broke Queenie's heart, but she could do nothing about it. Her family used her as a chip on the table for their own profit, and now they kicked her out of the family.The thought of that ached her heart, and she was filled with fury. Still, life had to go on.Nox knew about the exile as well. He was on the first floor, looking out the window. "Alex should be done by now."Twenty minutes later, a car came to a stop before Pearl Residence. George and Yvette came out, and Yvette was talking to her husband. Eventually, she teared up. "Do you think she'll forgive us?"George inhaled deeply. "Don't worry. We're still her parents.""This is all your fault. You just had to freeze all her cards and let Hogs exile her. She's never been through this before all her life," Yvette grumbled.George knew he'd gone too far this time, so all he could do was sigh. "Alright, stop. I was just doing it for the family.""You'd toss our own daughter's happiness away for t

    "You'd sacrifice my happiness for your company? I'm your daughter! And you know how much of a scum Silas is! You'd have destroyed me if you made me marry him!"Queenie's fury grew stronger, and her eyes eventually went red.A long sigh escaped George's lips. "You're right. This is my fault. I'm sorry, Queenie. Can you forgive me?"Queenie stared at her father in petrified confusion. 'He's apologizing to me? I thought he was here to demand an explanation,' she wondered.Yvette added, "Queenie, your father has never apologized before. This is his first time. You have to forgive him."Queenie might be their child, but she was no fool. They had just exiled her an hour ago and crossed her name off the family records, and now her father was here to apologize. Something was up.A moment later, Queenie asked, "Dad, why are you suddenly apologizing to me? Did Silas tell you to do this?"George waved his hands adamantly. "No, it wasn't him.""Then why are you doing this?" Queenie had mor

    "Listen to your father, Queenie. You are part of the family after all," Yvette persuaded.Queenie stayed silent for a long while. Eventually, she asked, "Dad, did Uncle Hogs send you here? Tell me the truth."Queenie's parents had no idea how to answer that, but their child was smart. She knew the answer the moment they hesitated to answer. She sneered. "I knew it. Dad, Mom, I can sign the papers, but we'll need to agree on a couple of terms.""Name it. As long as we can go through with the deal, I can do anything you ask," George promised."Good. One, I'm canceling the marriage with Silas."George said, "Of course. Sign the papers, and I'll deal with the cancellation of the marriage.""Two, from now on, you have no right to interfere with my relationship. I can date anyone I like," demanded Queenie.George and Yvette didn't agree right away, but to ensure a smooth transaction, George agreed, "Fine, I can do that."And that was that. Queenie was over the moon. She didn't care w

    Hogs was pacing around in his room, waiting anxiously for Queenie and her parents' return.Jezebiah said, "Don't worry, Dad. She'll come back."Hogs harrumphed and snatched up a cigarette. He inhaled deeply. "It's odd. They want to buy our company, so why do they ask Queenie to be the one to sign? I don't understand.""Me neither," Jezebiah said. "By all accounts, that girl shouldn't even have the opportunity to get in touch with Alexander. She even made up a lie about that bastard being Alexander's godson.""True, but why did Empire Corp come for her twice, then?"Jezebiah rubbed his chin. "Maybe Alexander took a liking to her, Dad."That thought was ludicrous. "He's taken a liking to her?" Hogs was stunned."Yeah. I've heard some stories. Rich guys love pretty and innocent girls. Especially naive ladies like Queenie. And she's a virgin, too."Hogs' eyes shone. "You have a point. No, wait, that must be it.""Her personality is rotten, but she's a top-tier beauty. I bet Alexan

    The Empire Corp's team came in the afternoon. Ferguson was in the lead as usual, and he was followed by Mr. Larson and a team of eight bodyguards.Hogs led his family to welcome Ferguson. Queenie was tailing along. When Ferguson saw her, he smiled. "Ms. Sanders, we meet again."Queenie thought Ferguson was a nice person. She smiled. "Hello, sir."Fearing any sudden change, Hogs quickly said, "Mr. Laws, now that my niece is here, can we proceed with the signing of the contract?"Ferguson nodded. "Naturally." He beckoned at Mr. Larson.Mr. Larson came up to Queenie, bearing the purchase contract. He handed a pen to her. "Sign here, and the contract will come into effect immediately."Queenie took the pen and went through the contract.Hogs urged, "What are you waiting for? Just sign it."Jezebiah's eyes were shining with passion. Queenie's parents were staring at their daughter. Fifteen million for a dying company was something they never thought was possible, but here it was.A

    Queenie froze. "There's more?" She wondered what it could be.The Sanderses were terrified. They thought the Empire Corp would go back on their word.Mr. Larson smiled. "This is a takeover contract. Sign it, and you'll be the boss of Sanders Pharmaceuticals."Everyone inhaled sharply. Jezebiah, Hogs, and Queenie's parents were petrified. Even Queenie thought she was hearing things. "I beg your pardon?""Sign it, and you'll be taking over Sanders Pharmaceuticals.""I'm going to do what?" Queenie was close to screaming.Mr. Larson was still smiling. "You'll do exactly what you heard. Mr. Weeks' orders. This purchase is done for your sake. Of course, you'll be handling the company."Hogs, Jezebiah, and Queenie's parents exclaimed. 'What? The Empire Corp is handing over the company to Queenie?' they screamed in their minds.Queenie got the gist of it, and her eyes went wide. "You bought the company just to give it to me?""Yes, it is as you say, Ms. Sanders," Mr. Larson answered.

    "Don't just stand there, girl. Sign the papers and thank them!" George gushed. He could feel his heart beating so fast that it could leap out of his chest.Even Yvette said, "Sign the papers, Queenie. Sign them."Jezebiah and Hogs were jealous. They did not expect the Empire Corp to pull this move. Queenie, however, did not sign right away.She held the pen dumbly, staring at the papers before her. Everything felt so unreal, as if it was a dream. Queenie had no idea what to do.Her parents were starting to get fidgety over her indecisive attitude. What they wouldn't give to take her place and sign the papers for her.If the contract went through, they'd get their company back just like that, and they would get Empire Corp's backing, too. Anyone else would've signed the papers right away.Everyone was waiting with bated breath, but Queenie turned her eyes to Nox. "Nono." She had no idea why she would think of him right now.Nox approached her.Queenie blurted, "Should I sign the

    Three months later, Nox declared Faeast as the leader of all nations, ushering in a true era of peace and prosperity. Then, he abdicated the throne, passing the throne to Nineve. Nox proclaimed that this nation was neither the Greenshade nor the Limerent family's, but a world that belonged to its people.One year later, Nox and Queenie lounged under the warm sun on the sandy shores of the Ocean of Death, enjoying a rare moment of tranquility. The world had finally settled into peace, allowing them to take a well-deserved rest."Nono, what's Aphrodite up to?" Queenie asked, her brows furrowed as she leaned against Nox. "Is she planning something shady again? She's been building alliances all over like she wants to imitate the Three-Eyed Empress.""Death changes people," Nox replied calmly. "Don't worry about her. She knows exactly what she's doing."Old Aphrodite would've killed Jacques and run off to save herself without a second thought. Instead, she spared him, stripped his cul

    The Nine-State Crucible hovered majestically over the heavens, drawing all the spiritual energy from the Nine States and Five Domains into itself. As the ultimate artifact of Faeast, the crucible was unmatched—a legendary relic that had never known defeat.The origins of the Nine-State Crucible were shrouded in mystery. No one knew who forged it nor why it disappeared over the ages. For centuries, many dismissed it as a mere myth. Yet now, it reappeared, proving its existence—and, by extension, the truth of all the ancient legends tied to it.The sight left every cultivator present in awe, bowing in reverence to the artifact."The ancient sovereigns of Faeast forged the Nine-State Crucible to safeguard the Nine States and Five Domains. "Its power ensures that Ascendants cannot interfere with the mortal realm. It has crushed even Ascendants in the past, and you, still merely a mortal cultivator, think you can stand against it? I promised to crush you, and I will!"With Nox at it

    However, only Nox himself could sever the celestial providence. Only by cutting off the Celestial Lord's celestial providence could Faeast's providence be restored to its peak."Damn it! Nox Greenshade! Do you really think you can defy the heavens? I didn't want to damage my cultivation, but it seems I have no choice but to go all out! You think a one-ring Minor Saint can defeat me? I am the Celestial Lord—the apex of mortals, the Great Saint of Dao and Virtue, ordained by the heavens themselves!"The Celestial Lord's furious roar resonated across Mystia, drawing in vast waves of spiritual energy from the realm that converged upon him alone."Great Saint of Dao and Virtue? If the so-called heavens of the Transcendent Firmament made you, it only proves that even they have failures," Nox retorted coldly.Even the Celestial Lord, enraged as he was, could scarcely believe Nox's audacity—daring to disparage the mighty figures of the Transcendent Firmament."I am indeed a one-ring Minor

    'What? Griffin was a sworn brother to Magic Mountain's founder?!'"That's right," confirmed the formation master. "He only told us recently."As the first to learn of this connection, he had shared it with the Saints of the Five Elements, ensuring they wouldn't betray their alliance. Using the promise of ascension as leverage, he managed to secure their cooperation. After all, the Great Saint of Fire had already reached the threshold for ascension.The risks were minimal, and upon ascending to the Transcendent Firmament, the Magic Mountain's founder would surely offer his guidance. For that reason alone, the five mentors had rallied to aid Nox.With such mighty forces gathered, morale on Nox's side soared. Meanwhile, the Whitefield family's spirits plummeted, crashing from the heights of hope to the depths of despair in mere moments. The mental strain caused several of their weaker-willed members to break completely.With dread settling over them, the Whitefields could only place

    The Whitefields were getting cocky, but then they realized the powerhouses that came weren't responding. The aura was powerful, but there was no life in it. On closer inspection, they noticed that the leader of the group only had half a body left. His soul was missing. The quartet behind him was nothing but a pile of mincemeat.The portal buzzed again, and seven silhouettes came out. Five of them felt domineering, and they looked prideful. It almost felt like they were peerless. These people were none other than the Saints of the Five Elements.Four of them were Pinnacle Minor Saints. While one had an aura so strong, this place couldn't handle it."A Great Saint! Great Saint of Fire!" Fiery Ignis, Dominic, and Achille couldn't believe their eyes.It had been too long since Mystia saw a Great Saint, and he was Nox's mentor."So, he's the one who broke through first. But now he's already hit his bottleneck. The other four's power isn't enough. If the Sacred Beast Seal isn't upgraded

    The Montgomerys and the Byrds decided to see Nox together, but they were refused. They were cursing Nox and calling him disrespectful, but then they saw Nox and his team taking a portal to the path of the ancient divine."What? He went right to them? Why? He's going to fight the Celestial Lord now?" The representatives were shocked.'How dare they!' they thought.Nox and his team went through the portal quickly and appeared right over the Whitefields' place. The Whitefield family was the newest member of the divine four and the real mastermind behind the Inkdarks' demise."Kirin, I told you I'd take you back here someday. I told you that when we come back, the Whitefields will be no more. If you can't do it, I can wipe them out for you." Nox looked at Kirin."Don't look down on me, milord. You don't need to dirty your hands for them. I'll do it!" Kirin summoned his avatar, and with Saint power infused, the avatar turned into a real beast. The sacred beast itself descended upon the

    "Time to finish this. My lord's going to the path of the ancient divine next. You should decide who's going to take over after the Celestial Lord is taken down. That's all. Now let's talk about our personal business. Listen up, anyone who had a part in attacking my family, tell your clans that I'm coming for them. I'm killing all of you!"Bloodlust filled the air, and the representatives were shocked. "You killed your own family. Yes, we made them attack you, but we never wanted to wipe it out!" the Whitefields' representative said.Kirin flew into a rage. "How low can you go? You forced them to kill me, or you would wipe us out instead! You think I'm stupid? You'd have killed my family either way! I know how you guys function. You're crueler than any beast out there. Listen up, there's still time to plan for your funeral. You'd better make a good plan."Kirin chased everyone away. The families were going back to prepare for battle, but two remained behind. One was the Byrds' repres

    Nox's Magick Sword crushed the enemy leader's soul. "I said I would cut you down, and I did. Now do you see who's the ignorant one?"The enemy leader realized that Nox was the man at the pinnacle. Perhaps the moment Nox became a faux Saint, he was already no match for him. "So what if you can kill me? You are Faeast's Sovereign, and you have a duty to push Faeast to power. But the Celestial Lord still exists. As long as he is around, your wish will never be fulfilled." He sneered."Is that so? Well, he's next on the list to be culled. If anyone tries to make an enemy out of me, I will destroy them and their families, even if they are from the path of the ancient divine!"Nox shattered the remains of the soul, and the path of the martial's leader was no more. The problem harassing Faeast for millennia could be solved at long last. Achille was stunned. It hadn't been that long, but Nox had surpassed him.Nox was better than him in every way. He was an even better swordsman than Achil

    The enemy leader was waiting. One technique broken wasn't enough to take Nox out. He wanted to wait until Nox had cast all he knew and find an opening to take him down, but Nox wanted to take him down with the power of the sword."You're stubborn. Very well, this makes things easier for me. I'll kill you, or at the very least, wound you!" He'd be stupid not to take advantage of this. The enemy leader's avatar morphed into a gigantic fist and slammed into Nox's chest.The impact shot through his body and reached his soul. Nox spat blood, and his soul was injured.Achille couldn't stand by anymore. Nox just told him not to push himself, but he wasn't taking his own advice. Then, Nox's weak will-of-the-sword shone blindingly, and then Unto the Origin appeared once more."Even under my pressure, you can use this technique? You're strong, but you're as stubborn as your mentor. You've lost your chance! Die! You'll never get here in time, Achille! Shadowkill!"The enemy leader's avatar t
