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

    Hogs said, "I'm sorry, Dad. I'm sorry.""You think an apology alone will cut it? No. From now on, you are forever exiled from this family. You are not to return to the household for as long as you live!" Henry bellowed.Hogs plopped down on his behind. A long while later, he raised his head, his eyes red. "Must you go this far, Dad? Don't you care about me? I'm your son."Henry answered, "And that's the only reason I'm not going further, you animal."Hogs burst into laughter. "Fine. If you're going to exile me and Jezebiah, then so be it. But listen closely, you bastards. I won't forget this."He glared at Queenie. "And you, girl. This isn't the last you've seen of me." Hogs said, "Jezebiah, we're leaving."And they left, exiled from the family. What they did had nothing to do with the Sanderses anymore.Jezebiah and Hogs got what they deserved, but Queenie only saw them off in silence. She then looked at Henry.

    Henry started tearing into him. "I haven't even started with you! Did you force Queenie into a marriage with Centersea's heir for the family?"George's heart skipped a beat. "Dad, I—""Silence! You would sell out your own daughter because of your own failure? I can't believe you still have the audacity to stand here and act all high and mighty!"George couldn't talk back."I'm telling you, I will not allow anyone but Nox to marry Queenie." He summoned Nox over and turned to Queenie. "Queenie, you come here too."Queenie approached Henry. Henry held Queenie and Nox's hands and put them together. "I might've been bedridden for a couple of years, but I'm not blind. I can see you two will make the perfect match. Start dating and get married at the end of the year if you can."He added, "And give me a great-grandkid while you're at it.""Grandpa!" Queenie's cheeks were as red as blood, and Nox smiled dryly."That's all I have to say. Now, let's go home." Henry grabbed Nox's hand in

    Eventually, the Sanderses were all gathered. Nuclear and extended family. Queenie, her parents, and all the branch families were there. Henry was in the main seat, healthy and lively.He scanned everyone present and cleared his throat. "I'm calling this meeting for an announcement.""What is it?" George asked curiously.A pause later, Henry announced, "I have been informed of our family's situation over the last two years. The main agenda of this meeting is to announce the next family head's candidate. I am, after all, getting on in age.""We're having a new family head?" The Sanderses were stunned."That is correct." Henry nodded. "And the new family head shall be Queenie. Any objections?"There was an uproar. They couldn't believe Henry would make Queenie the next family head.One branch family member spoke up. "That's against the rules, sir. Hogs and George are still around, after all."Henry answered, "I've exiled Hogs. That animal is no longer part of the family, so he's o

    "Though you have committed the crime of treason, as long as you safely escort your charge and make enough noise, Faeast will not punish you. They need to make sure their image is upheld, after all," said Black Tortoise. That was why he was annoyed. Aphrodite no longer had the advantage, yet she still pulled one last gambit."What about the mistress, General? She said she has a plan. She no longer needs our protection, so does that mean…" The leader realized something. Their mistress was going to die, so she didn't need them anymore."She finally did one thing right, and it was right before her death. Pity it's too late for regrets." Black Tortoise snorted. He had no idea that Nox was risking his life to save Aphrodite. He thought Nox was going to kill the witch.And now the other suicide squad members realized that their mistress was dying. She sent them back home and set up one final play so they could survive. The members cried for their mistress, and the leader bawled. He pulled

  • Revenge of the Night   Chapter 2191 Reason

    Nox told Black Tortoise about how Aphrodite has sent her men to escort the Greenshades back to Imperia. Black Tortoise had just taken out Poseidon's troops on Eropa's coast. His wounds were all thanks to Poseidon. After killing him, Black Tortoise went back to Faeast and traveled to Seacoast as fast as he could.And now he was facing these suicide squad members. Aphrodite's most loyal men were her bodyguards, and they were all ex-Nox Army people. Nox ordered them to remain perfectly loyal to Aphrodite and carry out all her orders.Back then, he and Aphrodite were the perfect match, but then she betrayed him, much to everyone's shock. Even after she betrayed the country, these people still thought she did it on purpose, so they followed her lead. And then they realized that Aphrodite had betrayed the nation for real.The bodyguards couldn't turn back anymore. The only thing they could do was follow Nox's orders. After the incident of Nox's apparent death and Aphrodite's own exile, th

    Then, a voice boomed, "If anything happens, I'll handle it!"Everyone looked shocked, and they turned their attention to the newcomer. It was a wounded man, and he was slowly approaching them. The air around him was thick with bloodlust, as if he'd just returned from a bloody battlefield. Everyone bowed to him, and the fanaticism in their eyes was almost palpable. The air was electric.The people captured videos of this scene and posted them online. Some of the sharper guys recognized the newcomer immediately. The generals were bowing to the man, including the one talking to the Mousses' guy. He quickly approached the newcomer.Even the Mousses' guy was looking at the newcomer fervently. Out of habit, he bowed to the incoming man. "General Black Tortoise."The soldiers were stunned. They might not be part of the Nox Army, but they were the military, so they had the right to bow to Black Tortoise. 'But you're just a traitor. You're insulting the Great General!'Black Tortoise seeme

    "Tell them to eat shit, guys! We're taking this for ourselves, and if they pull anything funny, we're taking them out!" one of the swordsmen's leaders shouted, and his comrades agreed."Dammit, the bastards. We're going in as well! We got orders from the Shadow Division. If they attack us, they're traitors!" The sects' cultivators gnashed their teeth. The soldiers were stunned. Their people were fighting among themselves even when the mission hadn't begun.It was ridiculous to fight over who would get the credit. Then, someone inside the governor's estate came out with their hands held high. The swordsmen and cultivators were about to move, but a general said, "Hold it! I'm the commanding officer here! I'll talk to him!"He strode ahead. At the same time, hundreds of guns were trained on the alleged remnant of the Olympians. The general looked at the man and asked solemnly, "You don't look like an Olympian. Are you a Faeast citizen?"The man nodded. The general asked, "The Mousses?

    At the same time, the captain of the squad that arrived first on the scene asked his chief, "Chief, the governor's still in there. Should we—"The general shot him with a glare. "Governor? He is no longer a Faeastian governor, and we don't negotiate with foreign enemies. He has a duty to protect his nation and sacrifice for it!"The captain nodded. Faeast's rise to power could not be stopped, especially now. The remnants thought they could threaten Faeast just because they got one hostage. It was a joke. Then, the swordsmen came on their flying swords. The soldiers couldn't believe what they were seeing."I can sense them. They're inside, and they only have one hostage. Probably the governor." The swordsmen came down and greeted the generals. The generals greeted back."We're counting on you."The swordsmen were about to go inside, but then they sensed more aura coming in. "More? No, they're Faeast's cultivators. Finally revealing themselves?" The swordsmen looked around, their w

    "I'll mobilize the Shadow Division. We are to take them down," said Keith. They had some Magic Mountain swordsmen nearby. These people demanded to come to Imperia to fight, and now they could be used for this operation.The swordsmen were drinking away at a barbecue shop and complaining about the situation when the news hit them. "The guys who fought in Imperia got a lecture from the founder and got more power from that, but we get nothing at all?"They were a little frustrated, and then through the news, they saw news about the attack on the governor's estate. Just when they were wondering if it might be the work of the Olympians' remnants, Keith's call came."I need you to take out the bastards at the governor's estate. Take no prisoners! If you can save the governor, save him. If you can't, too bad. But if they have taken any civilian hostage, don't act hastily."The swordsmen were excited. "Don't worry about it, kid. Unless they have a Pinnacle Legend Realm with them, they're n

    That was blasphemy. They were both Saints, and he was more powerful than Voltaic, yet he was insulted. "You bastard! Don't look down on me! I'm the leader of the Sect Alliance! I'll make you pay!"Tremeus had never been insulted before. He was one of the best cultivators in the world, after all. Flames erupted from his soul, and they crashed into Voltaic. Towering waves flew high into the air. The battle between a saintly swordsman and a powerhouse of the path of the martial was underway."Tremeus is putting in his all. If Voltaic hadn't won in his earlier fight, he might be defeated, but he did win, and his understanding of swordsmanship deepened. His aura's never been stronger. He might not be able to defeat Tremeus, but at least he won't fall." Dominic narrowed his eyes.Still, the outcome of this situation depended on Nox. If Nox could come out victorious, then all would be fine. If he couldn't, then not even killing Tremeus could change anything. Nox had cast all Eight Saintly

    Voltaic arrived at a critical junction. Dominic suspected that he would be the powerhouse arranged for this plan. Voltaic stopped a distance away. He looked confused, and then he shouted telepathically, "Get out here, you bastard! Damn you, Aphrodite! You lured me out so you could attack Faeast? That's my homeland, you witch!"Dominic wasn't expecting this at all. "Wait, so there's someone else?" He was musing over the matter when he sensed another person's aura in the seas. "He's in the sea!" Dominic unsheathed his weapon. At the same time, Voltaic's divine sense noticed the person as well.He leaped into the seas, and then a hundred-yard ravine split open the waters a moment later. Voltaic's sword energy created a vacuum on the surface of the sea. Before him was a warrior in black, holding up the sword energy with his hand."Tremeus Lifenstein, leader of the Sect Alliance. He's a Saint too, but only his soul is intact. His life must be coming to an end, so he couldn't wait any l

    "Yeah, this one's not as powerful as the ones in his tribulation, but it's no pushover either. Endure it, and she lives. Fail, and both of you die." Dominic looked at Aphrodite. "Look at her. She's smiling."Aphrodite had gotten over herself. She'd have stopped Nox if he hadn't tried to take the backlash, but now that he'd gotten himself into it, it was too late to do anything. When she'd freed herself from her chains, Aphrodite could finally be herself again.This was what she'd been waiting for. No matter the outcome, Nox had fought with her. Another lightning bolt fell out of the skies, and Nox took it head on. Only two bolts had fallen thus far, but Nox was starting to feel his strength fail.It was almost as if there was something watching from behind the vortex. It could feel Nox's strength fail, and it quickly dropped another lightning bolt."Eight Saintly Techniques!" Nox knew his body alone couldn't stop the bolts, so he quickly used his spells. However, that enraged the v
