Chapter 696 First Meeting

Author: Lil Thorny Flower
The corpse poison of the thousand-corpse worm was the deadliest of them all. That poison would attack the victim's heart and destroy their innards, making them lose all feeling in their limbs.

If this symptom dragged on, the victim's body would start to rot from the inside. Eventually, the necrosis would start eating away at their whole body. When Nox thought of that, the scowl on his face deepened.

Queenie noticed the look on his face and whispered, "Is it serious, Nox?"

"It's alright," said Nox quickly. That way, Queenie wouldn't overthink things. "You just have to remember that I'm here. As long as I'm here, I'll definitely cure you."

Queenie didn't probe further. Instead, she rested her head on Nox's chest. "I'm not scared of this illness. I'm just worried about losing you. What should I do, then?"

Nox felt something squeezing his heart, and he hugged Queenie tightly. "It's alright, Queenie. I will cure you, no matter what. I promise."

Queenie didn't say anything in response.

    "You've met the lord, I presume?" Bear turned to Selina."Of course," answered Selina."So, what do you think? He's far more handsome, isn't he? More dashing?""Don't beat about the bush, fatso. What are you trying to say?" Selina asked.Bear grinned and teased, "It's a reunion after a long separation, and you loved him so much back then. It's not every day you get to meet him. So, maybe you should take the chance and… You know, get it on with him if you get my drift."Icy fury crept onto Selina's face. "One more word out of you, fatso, and I'll cut off your tongue."Bear scrambled away from her. "I'm just saying what I'm seeing."A cough came from the side. The surprised Bear turned around and quickly saw Nox leading Queenie out. "Milord!" he called. "Oh, Your Highness, you're awake!"Queenie immediately became confused by his form of address. So, she asked, "Who is he, Nono? Why does he call me Your Highness?"Nox shot Bear a scathing look. Bear instantly realized he'd let s

    "Good."After the brief introduction, Nox took Queenie back to her room in order to prevent her from getting too exhausted. Queenie suddenly asked, "Do you have anything more to do after this, Nono?"The surprised Nox asked, "No. Why?"Queenie held Nox's arm, chuckling. "Nothing. It's just I gotta visit a relative tomorrow. Can you come with me?""What relative?""My uncle. He's in Greentown as well. I've checked the map, and it's about a dozen miles away. If you're not too busy, maybe we can visit him together?" Queenie told Nox about her uncle.Nox knew that Queenie was bored after staying at Blathanna Sect due to her cursebug affliction. Nox didn't see a reason to reject her proposal, especially since she wanted to pay her relatives a visit. "Yeah, I can make it tomorrow.""Really?""Yep."Queenie beamed. "Thanks, Nono." She rested her head on his chest.The next day, Nox got ready for the visit. Queenie got up early to dress herself up. She wore a floral dress, her hair c

    Queenie told Nox about her uncle during their journey there. He was in the construction business. A contractor of some sort, and he'd been doing quite well for himself in the southwest. The taxi started going forward.Halfway through, Queenie said, "Nono, Selina used to have a crush on you, doesn't she?"The sudden question caught Nox by surprise. He froze for a moment and answered, "No.""You're lying. I saw how she looked at you. I saw how she treated you. Of course, she likes you. She even thought about you even when it's supposed to be a visit to my uncle's."Nox quickly explained, "You're reading too much into it, Queenie. I—""It's alright. I'm happy she likes you, Nono.""What do you mean?""I mean, she's beautiful. If a woman like her fancies you, that means you're a brilliant man." Queenie smiled.Nox scratched his head. 'It's impossible to read women.'"However… I'll strangle you with my bare hands if you cheat on me." Queenie pinched Nox's arm.Nox held her hand ge

    "Is Uncle David here?"The mention of David Crystals stunned the girl, then she turned her head around. "Dad, someone wants to see you!"A man in a wheelchair came out, and Queenie recognized him."Uncle David!"The honest-looking man in the wheelchair was surprised to see Queenie. "Queenie, is that you?""Yes.""My dear girl, this is a sudden visit. You could've called. I'd be more than happy to pick you up," said David happily."Oh, it was a spur-in-the-moment idea. So, I didn't want to disturb you. What happened to your leg?" Queenie didn't miss the fact her uncle was in a wheelchair.David smiled bitterly. "Some falling slab of stone crashed into it at the site. It's alright, I was careless."Since that was the case, Queenie asked no more questions."Come in, Queenie. It's been years since I saw you. You're all grown up now," David happily invited Queenie and Nox inside. He then told the girl who opened the door, "Zara, this is your cousin, Queenie."Zara looked at Queen

    David hastily spoke up when he noticed how hostile Johanna seemed. "Don't mind her, Queenie! That's just the way your aunt is. But you really didn't have to bring us gifts!""Of course I had to, Uncle David," Queenie replied without hesitation. Meanwhile, Nox hadn't uttered a single word at all. From the moment Nox entered the room, he could tell that David was a humble and honest man. However, it was also evident to Nox that Johanna and her blonde-haired daughter didn't think too highly of Queenie."How's the pharmaceutical business going, Queenie?" David started a new topic of conversation. "It's doing fine!""That's great. By the way, Queenie, what does your boyfriend do?" David came up with another question. A hint of awkwardness surfaced on Queenie's face upon the mention of Nox's career. After some contemplation, Queenie decided to tell David the truth. "He doesn't have a job yet.""Oh, I see! There are plenty of opportunities for a young man like him, so I wouldn't be to

    Upon unboxing the gift, Johanna was greeted with three fat and juicy pieces of Ganoderma herbs. Johanna lost her temper when she saw the inside of the gift box, which was bare and empty apart from the three pieces of herbs."Look at that, David. What sort of nonsense did your niece get for you? What is this oddly shaped thing? It looks like a mutated root vegetable. Why would we need such a thing?" In a fury, Johanna threw the box of herbs onto the ground. On top of that, she lifted her foot and started to crush the herbs with her high heels. The herbs broke into pieces.Woof! Right then, their pet poodle hurried over and began to munch on the herbs that were on the ground. "Look at that! Only dogs would eat such trash!" Johanna angrily threw herself onto the couch after making a final statement. David had no choice but to sigh in response to Johanna's rage.All of a sudden, they heard the sound of the doorbell. "Who is it?" Johanna, who was still furious, shouted fiercely when she

    "Don't kid me, Mr. Hudson. A-Are these really expensive herbs? I thought they were just some root vegetables!" Johanna was on the brink of tears as she questioned the doctor in a hoarse voice.Terrence was slightly offended. "I've been in the field of medicine for 40 years now. Do you think I wouldn't be able to tell the difference between Ganoderma and carrots?"Johanna sank onto the ground with a loud thump after hearing the man's words. "You guys sure are something else! I can't believe you fed these treasured herbs to your dog." Terrence made a snarky comment before he turned to leave. The foolish couple was left to clean up their own mess....In the meantime, Queenie and Nox had left before they got to witness the chaos that struck David's household. Both of them strolled silently on the street."I'm sorry, Nono. I wanted to introduce you to Uncle David today, but I didn't expect..." Queenie mumbled in a rather disappointed tone.Nox knew that she was trying to make him fe

    Right after that announcement, more than 20 burly bodyguards rushed out of the restaurant to protect the celebrity who had just arrived.Seeing what was happening, Queenie's eyes lit up. She looked at the motorcade of cars on tiptoes while yelling, "Oh my god! I didn't know Madison Cloud would come here to have a meal! No wonder the whole place has been reserved."Nox, on the other hand, hadn't expected to bump into the celebrity that he had saved. "Do you know who she is, Queenie?" he asked with a smile."Of course! I'm her number one fan!" Queenie let out an excited cry and continued to crane her neck to look at the cars. Upon hearing that Queenie was a huge fan of Madison, Nox scratched his nose awkwardly."You might not know this, Nono, but Madison's a really popular celebrity! All of her movies are top box-office earners, and she's even starring in Hollywood films now! More importantly, Madison isn't as pretentious as some of the other celebrities. She's known for her movies b

    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
