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

    The moment Madison got out of her car, her fans went wild. Even Queenie stood on her tiptoes, taking photos with her phone. "Nono, look, that's Madison! My gods, she's prettier than she is on TV!" Queenie gushed, her phone snapping away.Nox said, "Do you like her that much, Queenie?""Yeah, I love her. She's the only celeb I follow!" Queenie said."I see. Why don't I arrange a meet-up, then?" Nox said."What?" Queenie thought she was hearing things."I said I could arrange a meetup for you two." Nox smiled.Queenie touched Nox's forehead. "Are you sick or something?""No. Why?""Because you're talking nonsense. She's worth a billion and has fans all over the world. She'd never meet up with a civilian like me," Queenie muttered.Nox wanted to tell her that he saved Madison's life before, but he swallowed his words. All he did was smile at Madison, who was surrounded by her adoring fans. Not too long after, the bodyguards escorted Madison into The Classic Diner.Blocked by the

    Looking at her own reflection, Madison said, "I don't want to entertain them."Her assistant sighed. "I know where you're coming from, but Soundra's the investor in our next movie. The chamber of commerce's leader and the governor are here, too. Just meet up with them, will you?""I told you, I don't want to entertain them!" Madison snapped.That made things awkward for the assistant. She looked at Madison. "Um, you take a break. I'll talk to them." And she left, leaving Madison alone in the restroom.This dinner was something the assistant arranged for Madison. Madison hated events like these, but she was only told that she would be dining with the heir of Soundra after she came out.Madison knew very well that the portly woman only wanted to inveigle herself into the southwest's blueblood using her. Disgust welled up within her.Suddenly, she heard footsteps coming from behind. Alarmed, she swiveled around. "Who's there?"A dashing figure was standing nearby, smiling at her. R

    "He's my friend!" Madison said quickly.'Friend?' the bald man thought as he shot Nox an icy look. "Mr. Soundra is waiting for you, Ms. Cloud. Please join him this instant. Don't make this hard for us."Madison heard the underlying threat. "Fine, I get it." She took out a gleaming business card and handed it to Nox. "Take this and tell my bodyguards I gave you permission to come in. I'll see you later."Nox took the card. "Thanks."The bald man took Madison away. Nox narrowed his eyes, but he remained silent.The eatery's entrance was still packed with Madison's fans, but the bodyguards stood tall, guarding the entrance so no one could get in.Queenie was at the outer ring waiting for Nox when he appeared behind her out of nowhere. "Queenie.""Where did you go, Nono?" Queenie asked."Had a look around the place. You said you wanted to have lunch here and meet up with Madison?" Nox asked."Yeah.""Then come with me." Nox held Queenie's hand and made his way to the eatery's ent

    It was like a dream come true for Queenie.Nox took his seat. "Make your orders, Queenie."Queenie was jubilant. She nodded quickly and snapped up the menu to make her orders. Once she was done, she asked Nox curiously, "Why is she doing this for us, Nono? And how did you get us in?""Because I know Madison?" Nox said."What? No way that's true. You lost your memories. How do you even know her?" Queenie obviously didn't believe him."Forget I said anything, then," Nox said.Queenie didn't believe him one bit. He had lost his memories, and besides being a mechanic and a good fighter, he didn't seem to have any more skills. And now, he said he knew Madison. That was a tall story.Nox didn't explain himself. A moment later, the waiter came back in with a table of exquisite food. They also brought the couple two bottles of Lafite worth five figures each."Enjoy, miss," the waiter said."Um, I don't remember ordering this." Queenie stared at the expensive wine."Ms. Cloud did," th

    The tipsy Madison came into the parlor and looked at Nox. "How's the food, my savior?"Hearing how Madison addressed Nox, Queenie froze in shock.Nox smiled. "Not bad.""Good.""Tell me if you need anything, sir. Can I raise a toast to you? For saving my life?" The flushed Madison raised a glass to Nox.Nox didn't refuse. He picked up his glass and raised a toast as well.Queenie couldn't believe this. 'The legendary Madison is raising a toast to Nox? And she called him her savior? What's going on?' she pondered.After they were done, Nox said, "This is my girlfriend, Queenie. She's your biggest fan, Ms. Cloud. She wants to chat with you and get an autograph."Madison smiled. "Sure." She turned to Queenie.This was Queenie's first time meeting a big star up close. She almost squealed with glee when Madison looked at her. "H-Hi, Ms. Cloud. I'm Queenie Sanders, your biggest fan. I've been following you since your debut." Queenie was stammering in the face of her idol."It's a p

    "Touch her, and I'll slice off your hand," Nox said.The bald man froze for a moment before looking at Nox coldly. "Are you threatening me, punk?""So what if I am?" Nox looked at him coolly."No one messes with me! Die!" The bald man flew into a rage and threw a punch at Nox, but he didn't even hit Nox.Nox swung his finger, and a blast of energy sliced through the bald man's arm. The arm fell to the ground with a squelch. "My arm!" The bald man looked at his sliced arm and let out a scream.Madison was so stunned by this scene that she sobered up immediately, and she stared at Nox with widened eyes. Unfazed even after what he did, Nox asked, "Told you."The bald man held his bleeding stump, shrieking, "Kill the bastard! Kill him!"The lackeys charged at Nox, but Nox didn't give them even so much as a look. He waved his right arm, and a surge of energy crashed onto the incoming lackeys. The lackeys barreled through the air and fell with sickening thuds. None moved.Madison c

    "What a joke. Do you think that shabby saber can defeat me? Even if Sariel were here, I could still take him down. You're not a talented cultivator at all. All you care about is the decadence of mortals. Even if you risk your life when it matters most, it's still useless."You should've lived out your life in mediocrity. Enlightenment does not come to those who refuse it, and you have clearly said no to my offer, so you shall suffer in hell. It is your rightful place." The monk laughed and made hand seals. A black demonic seal came out of his palm and went straight for Atlas' vitals."I'm done for." Atlas didn't want to die like this. He shouldn't have gloated. Perhaps this wouldn't have happened. He would never rest in peace if he died while Faeast was in trouble. He could excuse himself if his defenses were taken down, but no. His defense was lax, and now his enemy was going to kill him like he was a maggot.His ancestors would rip him to shreds when he met them. Atlas regretted a

    The Nox Army wanted to fight with Atlas, but Atlas roared, "Fall back! The enemy is the House of Enlightenment's leader! You're just going to get yourself killed!" He talked to them as governor-general, and Atlas charged into battle alone."You think you can stop me, Atlas? I will kill you and take the nation's fate!" Cyrus rode the wind, and Atlas risked his life. He faced Cyrus' spells and fought him head-on. Though it seemed valiant, Atlas was risking his life, and yet he couldn't get close to Cyrus. All he could do was buy some time.It wasn't pretty on the other side. The swordsman in rein used to be Sword Sect's leader's student, and his powerful swordsmanship was the bane of Mystian cultivators. Harley was burning his spirit to hold on.While the battles raged on, dark clouds hung over Imperia, and they slowly turned into skeletons, threatening to engulf the city. Dark mists traveled everywhere, covering the city. The sleeping residents were haunted by nightmares and couldn't

    "That god's aura is incredibly weak now. Shit, that bastard's after White Tiger!" The Hidden Dragon Guards realized what was going on, and they told headquarters about this, but to make things worse, they lost contact with headquarters.Everyone back there was dead, including the royal guards. They were lying in pools of their own blood. There was a barrier hanging around, cutting off all contact with the outside world. The powerhouses in the palace were killed, and none survived. Curiously, the royal family living near the palace was fine.Jaculus was outside the palace. He got the message and came back from the outskirts to hold the fort. He'd been stationed at the Dragon Vein, but this was an emergency, so he had to come back.Jaculus was helpless, however. Atlas and the god were stronger than him, but their situation was unknown, and they needed him to save the situation. "Shit. Black Tortoise and Vermilion Bird are overseas, and Lord Nox is in Mystia. Sword Sect is in trouble t

    Back in the regular guards' camp, Harley spat blood. He was lying in the ruins of a building, his body covered in slash marks. His Celestial technique was broken. This man was leagues above him. Celestial techniques were useless. The swordsman was too powerful."Magic Mountain's techniques? But their swordsmen are on good terms with the lord!" Harley stared at the man in green. He defeated Harley using Magic Mountain's techniques.Magic Mountain and Mystia had always been at loggerheads. They had slain many demons and monsters throughout the years, and their swordsmanship was a bane for the cultivators."I wonder how Nox managed to make a Mystian like you loyal to him. Yes, I am a Magic Mountain swordsman. Was, to be honest. I was kicked out a hundred years ago. My master said my heart is astray. How laughable. I have killed demons over ninety years, and hundreds of them have died to my blade! My heart is not astray!"Your sins are innumerable, Harley, and you must be slain! White

    All of a sudden, the soldiers let go of their weapons. They had a look of fanaticism on their faces as they throttled themselves to death. The party went on, and the bluebloods enjoyed every moment, oblivious to the incoming danger.The monk passed through the residence smoothly, with all the soldiers and guards throttling themselves to death. Suddenly, everyone noticed a monk in red robes in the party hall. The drunk guests thought this was an event arranged by Atlas."We have a monk here. Wonder what kind of show you're presenting," a portly rich man joked, laughing loudly."Show? I am the leader of an evil sect. No show, but I do have a scripture to share. The government calls my sect evil, and they claim the monks are agents of darkness. You are not much better yourself. Omitofo."The old monk chanted once more, and the look on everyone's faces changed. Some knelt and cried their hearts out. Some groveled and didn't even notice that their heads were bleeding. They talked about

    Back in his residence, Atlas called a feast and invited the bluebloods of Imperia. He was glowing during the event and could never be happier. He used to be a declining aristocrat with nothing but the title of nobility.However, his luck turned for the better when he got older. He followed Nox into battle at Heaven's Cage, Vertolt, and Winterosch, making him a true lord. The Limerents controlled the nation, and he was a prince. He could even have some power over the nation or at least be one of the top dogs in Faeast.If Nox became emperor, then all the better. Perhaps he could be a more intimate part of the royal family. He drank to his heart's content and partied with the most desired people in Imperia. Nothing could be better."Life is short, people. Drink!"…The Ice Temple's vice-Lord was in the regular guards' encampment. This was a critical junction, and yet Atlas wasn't at his post. Instead, he was having a party. The vice-Lord had a bad feeling about this, but he had no p

    Harley sneered, having nothing but disdain for Atlas. "I can't believe the master would employ a shithead like you."Atlas laughed. "You think you're so high and mighty, but you're also Lord Nox's lapdog now. I am his subordinate, and we have a close relationship. I'm also the uncle of the emperor. That makes me Lord Nox's great-uncle," bragged Atlas."Dumbass. Just do your fucking job. Vermilion Bird and Black Tortoise told me the Mousses might try something," Harley cursed.The mention of the Mousses made Atlas panic, but he calmed himself down and snored. "The Mousses? They won't dare do anything when I'm here. If they show up, I'll kick their ass! I command thirty thousand units. If they come to Imperia, it'll be the last thing they see!" Atlas was confident.Harley was speechless. 'My word, how can he be such a braggart?'With thirty thousand Nox Army units in Imperia, combined with the Forbidden Army, the regular guards, and 200 thousand elites protecting Imperia, nothing co

    Vermilion Bird said, "Azure Dragon used to be an Advanced Eight Gates. After the Mousses had him under their control, he became a Supreme. Judging by these photos, he's gotten more powerful since then."'More powerful?' Nineve knew how the cultivators were ranked. Top Legend Realms were another kind of life form entirely. In Faeast, a Supreme could be made a lord. An undefeatable Supreme would be made a ruler. A Sovereign was made every five hundred years, while a ruler was made every century.Supremes appeared once every decade or so. "I don't get it. You three obviously found some power source, and with Nox's help, you leveled up. Azure Dragon only has the Mousses. How'd he level up so fast?"If the Mousses were so powerful, they wouldn't have to resort to assassinations or betrayals."Not the Mousses. It's all Azure Dragon. He's our captain. He's a very talented and cunning man. Emphasis on talent. He's so strong that not even three of us can compare to him, combined. The only g

    Elizabeth said nothing but went red and hung her head low, causing Black Tortoise to panic."Uh oh. If you want him, you'll have to fight for him. That's all I can say, but the lord does think highly of you." He laughed."Shut it, Black Tortoise. You're talking nonsense here!" Vermilion Bird snapped. "See you, Your Majesty." She then took Black Tortoise and left the room quickly. They had work to do.The duo led most of the Shadow Division members back to Faeast. After the incident of Brundela, Faeast's fate was going strong, and the people were excited. However, beneath that excitement was unseen danger.Vermilion Bird and Black Tortoise came back to Northstate's governor-general's place and met up with Nineve. Black Tortoise said solemnly, "What happened, Your Highness? We need the details."Nineve looked exhausted, and there were dark circles under her eyes. She had been working hard in Nox's absence.
