Chapter 68 Henry's Questions

Author: Lil Thorny Flower
Henry looked at his uniform. In surprise, he asked, "Are you a soldier as well?"

Nox smiled, but he said nothing.

"Still, thank you for what you did. I will do what I can to repay this debt," said Henry with respect.

"You only healed so fast because it wasn't an illness you were down with."

"Are you sure?" Henry now had questions.

"Yes," said Nox. He asked, "You only started feeling ill after your training, didn't you?"

"How did you know?" Henry was petrified.

Nox answered, "Your training went awry, and the circuit of your inner energy went haywire. The inner energy got stuck in your stomach. All I did was smooth out the energy that's been trapped in your belly for years."

Henry was at a loss for words. "You're a miracle, sir. Yes, I did get ill after my training. Forty years ago, when the war was still raging, I found an incomplete fist technique manual among the bodies of fallen soldiers."

He continued, "After I retired from the military, I started practicing. Everything was

    At the same time Nox was healing Henry, Queenie and her family were on their way to Sanders Pharmaceuticals. The factory was on the outskirts.Queenie and her family were in two cars. The one in front housed Queenie and her parents, while the one in the back housed Hogs and Jezebiah.George pointed at the road leading to the factory on the clearing ahead. "We're here, Queenie. And good thing Queenie's the company's owner now. If Dad finds out that Empire Corp bought out the company, he's going to have a heart attack."Yvette said, "What are you talking about? Henry's been in a coma for nearly a year. He can't even get angry at anything.""True." The thought of his wizened father made George sigh.A moment later, they arrived at the factory. The first thing they saw was over a hundred workers huddled in the factory.When Queenie came out of the car, someone shouted, "They're here! Surround them!"The workers quickly surrounded Queenie and her parents. The sudden confrontation sho

    "You're the one who owes them, not me. The company belongs to your daughter now, remember?" Hogs answered.George thought he would blow up in fury. He couldn't believe his own brother would do this to him, but he couldn't argue. Queenie was the one who owned the place now, and Henry was still in a coma. He couldn't pay the workers."Give us our money!""Pay us, or you're not leaving!"The workers shouted and screamed again. They closed in on Queenie and her family, weapons at the ready. Hogs and Jezebiah smiled darkly.Just when things were about to get out of control, Queenie stepped forth. "I'll pay you guys."All the workers laid eyes on her. Queenie's parents were flummoxed.They thought, 'You're paying them? With what money? We owe them nearly a million. Collectively.'"You're paying? Fine, then show us the money." One of the worker's leaders stepped ahead. The man's name was Hudson Swines. He was a distant relative of Hogs' wife.When Hogs was the boss of Sanders Pharmac

    The reignited wrath of the workers prompted Queenie to take more action. "If you don't believe me, I can swing by the bank and withdraw some money."Hudson sneered. "You're going to withdraw some money? Why should we trust you? What if you run away?"Angrily, Queenie said, "Then, you guys can come with me.""We're not going. We want cash, and we want it right now. Pay us, or you're not leaving," said Hudson, and he riled up the workers. "Listen up, people. We can't let them run away this time!"The workers were convinced, and things got out of control again.Queenie's parents were scared by the sight of this chaos. If they pushed the workers to the brink, they knew these people would stop at nothing to get what they wanted.George had to step in. "Honey, you need to call the family. We need to take whatever cash we have. And call all our friends. We'll have to take a few loans."Yvette was tearing up, but she quickly made the calls. Queenie, on the other hand, was blowing up wit

    "Take me to Queenie right now."The servant paused for a moment. "But Master George told me to raise the funds. If they can't pay the workers today, something bad is going to happen.""Don't worry about the money. Just take me to Queenie, and I'll handle it," Nox said.The servant was hesitant. After all, she didn't know Nox. She didn't think she could trust him so easily.In the end, Henry had to step in. "What are you waiting for? Take Queenie's husband and go."The servant shivered and looked at Nox again. "Yes, of course, sir.""I leave Queenie to you, lad. Take her home in one piece," Henry told Nox.A smile curled Nox's lips. "Of course, Henry. I'll bring her home safely." He then left the house quickly and hopped into the car.The servant was driving. On the way there, Nox borrowed a phone from her and called Alexander. "Alex, do you still have the cash I told you to bring along last time?"Alexander was in his office. "Yes, milord. I still have it.""Good. I need some

    "I do have money. The card is legit!"Queenie tried to explain, but Hudson wasn't going to listen. "Either you pay up, or I'll make you. We worked our asses off for you, and you're withholding our salaries? Guys, what say you? Should we make them pay?"Their emotions stirred, the workers roared, "Yes!"A venomous sneer twisted Hudson's lips. He held his steel bar tighter and jabbed it at Queenie. "One last time. Pay up!"Queenie was crying from fear now. She had no cash to pay everyone."You're not paying? Then you're asking for it." Hudson approached Queenie.George darted ahead and tried to stop him, but Hudson kicked him away. George fell, the pain keeping him down.Queenie roared, "Dad!"Hudson raised his weapon.The steel bar swung away at Queenie, but the split second before Queenie was hit, someone grabbed the weapon."You filthy bastard. How dare you attack my woman?" A towering figure stood before Queenie.It was none other than Nox.Hudson froze. Jezebiah and Hogs

    The sight of Ferguson petrified George while Queenie's eyes went wide.Ferguson approached Queenie and smiled. "We meet yet again, Ms. Sanders.""M-Mister, what brings you here?" Queenie stared at Ferguson, dumbstruck.Ferguson answered, "My employer has heard of your financial woes. He sent me here to aid you. Monetarily speaking, of course."'Monetary aid?' Queenie's parents were speechless, and so was Queenie.Ferguson then snapped his fingers at the armored cars. The great vehicles roared closer to the factory. A dozen armed officers leaped out of the vehicles and pulled the doors open, revealing wads of cash stacked in the storage.Four armored cars brought a total of 150 million dollars. The impact stunned everyone once more. The workers, Queenie, and her parents, everyone. Yes, Jezebiah and Hogs included. Eventually, Hogs' legs buckled, and he almost fell unconscious.Nox was the only one standing still."A hundred and fifty million, Ms. Sanders. Take it. If you need mor

    And with Empire Corp's help, the fiasco came to an end. The workers were paid, and the Sanderses could rest easy.Queenie, however, was still staring at the armored cars and the mountains of cash within. She was still basking in disbelief, but Ferguson eventually came up to her and broke her out of her stupor."Now that your financial woes are settled, what will you do? Do you require more assistance?"Queenie stared at Ferguson for a while. She shook her head."Very well. We shall be taking our leave, then."Ferguson was about to leave, but Queenie blurted, "Hey, wait a minute."Ferguson turned around, smiling at Queenie. "What might you need, Ms. Sanders?"Queenie pointed at the armored cars. "Can you tell me the reason you guys keep helping me? I don't think I know anyone in Empire Corp."The smile on Ferguson's lips remained. "But my employer knows you.""You mean Alexander, the richest man in Riverton?"Ferguson nodded, but that only added to Queenie's pile of questions.

    Queenie didn't stop scolding her uncle.Since they were having a falling out anyway, Hogs sneered. "You think you can lecture me, girl? Empire Corp might be backing you up, but I call the shots in this household. You're already exiled, girl. You're not a part of this family.""You call the shots? Grandpa is still alive. No one but him can exile me," Queenie retorted snarkily."Dad? He's been bedridden for years. If you're trying to scare me, you're doing a bad job."And then a roar exploded through the air. "You think I'm bedridden?"Hogs knew that voice all too well, and he froze in shock. Then, he saw a familiar silhouette strutting into the scene. The man was none other than Henry."Dad!""Grandpa!"Queenie and her parents couldn't believe Henry just showed up out of nowhere. Jezebiah and Hogs were both shocked. They were staring at Henry unblinkingly, their blood growing cold.'Henry is awake?' That was the thought that went through their heads."Dad, you're awake. I thou

    Nox activated his eyes.From behind the screen came two muffled groans. The next moment, the screen shattered into splinters, revealing two Sacred Realm cultivators staggering backward under the relentless assault of Nox's powers.The pair wore golden robes adorned with intricate ancient runes, their long hair cascading over their traditional attire. Their garb unmistakably marked them as followers of the path of the ancient divine.Behind them, a woman sat poised and composed, sipping tea with an air of unbothered grace as Nox watched. Her crimson lips parted slightly as she set the teacup down, her breathtakingly beautiful face touched with an edge of sharp intensity. "Lord Nox, it's been a while," she said coolly.Nox's pupils contracted, a flicker of surprise crossing his face. He murmured under his breath, "What is she doing here? As far as I know, the Greenshade family hasn't crossed her path."The woman's keen hearing caught his muttering, and her expression darkened inst

    Nox stepped into the Greenshade estate alone.As soon as he entered the courtyard, he spotted Atlas, the Defender Lord of the North, kneeling in the middle of the yard.The sight of him kneeling was unsettling. His face twisted in rage, his body trembling, though it was hard to tell if it was from anger or exhaustion.Nox glanced at Atlas briefly, ignoring him completely as he walked past him without a second thought."Huh? Hey! Nox! Don't you care about me at all? I've been kneeling here all night!" Atlas called out, desperate for attention.Nox smirked, clearly amused. "You're hilarious. It's not like I told you to kneel here.""What? Can you at least show some conscience? I heard your family was in trouble, so I brought the Forbidden Army here right away!" Atlas huffed, his cheeks puffed out in frustration.When Nox continued walking without responding, Atlas's face twitched in embarrassment, almost as though he might burst into tears.Just then, Nox flicked his hand, dispel

    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

  • Revenge of the Night   Chapter 2397 Soul Maze Formation

    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

  • Revenge of the Night   Chapter 2396 The Proper Course of Action

    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

  • Revenge of the Night   Chapter 2393 So Scheming

    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
