Revenge of the Night Chapter 84 A Misunderstanding
Nox was reminded of Draco. That man had once stood before a mountain of corpses, and yet he still charged ahead with no questions asked. Draco was one of his best friends and his fiercest general.In the Battle of the Ten Nations, Nox dispatched Draco to the western battlefront. As a result, Draco wasn't around when Nox fell in battle.Since his friend was coming to the event anyway, Nox answered, "If Draco is coming, then I can make some time for the event.""Of course. Someone will pick you up on the day of the ball."Nox hung up after that and looked at the overcast sky. He blinked.Queenie's parents led the truckers inside."Slow down. Place the roses here." George was leading the way. "Be careful. That's my daughter's favorite rose. Slow down."And then something struck him. "Hey, wait a minute. How'd your boss even know Queenie loves Carola?"The truckers had no answer for that, so they shook their heads. Nox showed up, and his appearance angered George."Hey, Nox, look
Revenge of the Night Chapter 85 Persuasion and Refusal
Queenie's parents approached her quickly. "Queenie, you're back."Queenie pointed at the sea of flowers in surprise. "What's with these roses?"With a smile, George said, "Alexander bought these for you.""The same Alexander from Empire Corp?" Queenie was speechless.Yvette chimed in, "Yeah. He's really nice, don't you think?"Queenie did not look happy at all. Instead, she was flabbergasted. She thought, 'Empire Corp bought a sea of roses for me? Why? Are they mad?'Curious, she asked, "But why did Alexander get me so many roses?"George answered with a question, "You still can't see why?""You mean you can?" Queenie asked back."Yes. Because he likes you."Shocked, Queenie spewed and sputtered. "That has to be some sort of joke. I don't even know what the guy looks like, and you're telling me he likes me?"George was grinning. "Just because you haven't seen him doesn't mean he hasn't seen you before. Besides, you know full well why a man would buy roses for a lady."Queen
Revenge of the Night Chapter 86 The Truth Still Hides
Queenie stepped away."Hold it right there, girl! You think just because you're the head of this family now, I can't keep you in check? I'll never let you marry that bastard as long as I'm alive!"George was screaming like a madman, but Queenie ignored him. She went back to her room only to see another sea of roses, and her face fell. She loved Carolas, but this was still something someone else gave her.She told the servants to take down all the roses and move them out. The servants couldn't believe their ears. "Miss Queenie, are you sure we're discarding all of them?""Yes, all of them. I don't want them," Queenie answered.The servants had a lot of questions, but they kept their mouths shut and moved the roses out.Nox came in. When he saw the servants moving the roses out of Queenie's room, he frowned. Into the room he went, and Queenie saw him."Just in time, Nono." She approached Nox. "Help me toss these roses away.""Why?" Nox was speechless."There is no why. I just do
Revenge of the Night Chapter 87 An Invitation
Queenie locked herself in the study and searched up everything she could about Empire Corp and Alexander. A while later, she saw the information about that company and its owner.She stared at Alexander's photo and huffed angrily. "Holy smokes, this guy is old enough to be my dad. I can't believe he wants to date me. And he also has a daughter about my age. The perv!""No way," she said. "No way I'm letting this perv woo me. I need to meet up with him and clear things up." Queenie closed up her notebook and tried her best to calm down."And I can't believe Nox isn't at least mad or jealous. Another guy is trying to woo me. Unbelievable." Queenie was getting angrier and angrier. She whipped up her panda plushie and started punching it like it was Nox.…For the whole day, Queenie ignored Nox. She was really mad.Nox felt aggrieved. He gave her a whole city's supply of Carola, but Queenie thought it was a gift from Alexander.The next morning, George came to Queenie. Queenie thoug
Revenge of the Night Chapter 88 No Preparation
"Why not? A lot of companies would kill just to get one of those invitation cards.""I don't want to see that old git," answered Queenie."Why? He's never treated you badly. If it weren't for him, you wouldn't be Sanders Pharmaceuticals' owner." George didn't understand why his daughter was so reluctant."And they helped us out. A lot. You should thank Alexander in person, even if it's just out of courtesy."Queenie fell silent. She didn't want to see Alexander, but her father had a point. It was all thanks to Empire Corp that she could stay in the Sanders family. Besides, Queenie had to get a chance to meet Alexander and tell them they were an impossible match.Queenie took a deep breath. "Fine, you made your point. I'll join the ball and meet Alexander.""Really?" George was excited that Queenie would go."Yeah.""That's great. Alright, you have to get ready for the ball. Lighten up your skin, make yourself pretty, and get some gowns while you're at it," said George.Queenie
Revenge of the Night Chapter 89 SS Empire
Nox saw Queenie off, rubbing his chin. "She's going to the ball too, which means I'll have to be extra careful so she won't find out who I am."He went back into his room. Quite a while later, Alexander called. His men would arrive at the Sanders Residence soon. Nox got changed and left for the ball.A Rolls-Royce and two black Maybachs were parked outside the house. The first thing Nox saw was Alexander standing by the car subserviently.Alexander quickly ran up to Nox. "Milord, I am here to pick you up."Nox grunted. Alexander opened the door for him, and Nox went inside the car. Alexander followed him closely. The motorcade turned around and made its way to the ball.George came out of the house and saw the motorcade leaving. His eyes went wide. 'Hey, that's the Empire Corp motorcade,' he thought. He stared into the window and saw someone familiar inside."Nox? Why is he with the Empire Corp? What's going on?" He was stupefied. "No way. I'm seeing things. There's no way Empire
Revenge of the Night Chapter 90 Silas and Gold
"Really? That's impressive.""Of course it is. And tonight, Riverton's bluebloods are all invited to a ball held on that same ship.""Really?""Yep. Look at the row of supercars. They're owned by Riverton's rich and famous. And Riverton's viceroy will show up as well.""Awesome. That's the power of Riverton's richest man for you."The tourists watched enviously as more supercars appeared. The bluebloods of Riverton and guests of the ball were in those cars. Impeccably-dressed people eventually stepped out of the vehicles and lined up for the ball.Beauty and lust always surrounded wealth and power. Alongside the powerful people were scantily-clad women who were also attending the ball.At the same time, a Mini arrived at the car park. Queenie got out of the car. She stared at the cruise ship docked by the riverside and muttered, "So that's where the ball is held?"The resplendent, unnecessarily luxurious sight made Queenie frown. 'The rich sure know how to splurge. Holding a ba
Revenge of the Night Chapter 91 Rivera Joshton
"Damn you. It's a surprise seeing you here, but you're not escaping me this time." A venomous smile curled Silas' lips.He had nothing but hatred for Queenie. Ever since Nox brutalized him, Silas had carried a grudge, but his men were no match for Nox, so he'd been holding the grudge in and letting it fester.Now, he finally saw his chance. And then, honks ripped through the air. A trio of military Hummers were charging over to the pier.The tourists gasped."Those are Zone: Draco's cars.""Zone: Draco's soldiers are joining the ball too? Whoa."The Hummers stopped, and a dozen armed soldiers in uniform leaped out of the vehicles. And then, a lieutenant colonel came out. He was burly and tanned. His face was almost purplish-bronze.A terrifying aura swirled around him. This man was Rivera Joshton, the representative of Zone: Draco for the ball.Gold, Silas, and his bodyguards approached him. Gold, especially, was excited. "Rivera, you're finally back."Rivera called out to his

Their targets were the relics around the altars. The moment the whirlpool showed up, the black energy conjured black walls and kept Brundela on lockdown, cutting off all communications.Possessed by evil spirits, gods from ancient civilizations came back to life. In the underground graveyard, the dead came bursting out of their coffins, and skeletons with phantom flames flickering around them charged at the holy knights and James' secret agents.Nothing more needed to be said. The holy knights' leader led the charge. The other knights resolved to fight to the death as they battled the skeleton gods.James and his secret agents fired off at the enemies, but the bullets did nothing to the skeletons. All they managed was to light a big spark. Only grenades and howitzers could deal damage to them, and even then, the damage was light.The battle was fierce. Though the knights did not fear death, they were still weaker than the prehistoric gods. These skeletons were nigh invincible, and
Revenge of the Night Chapter 1979 Evil Spirits
Nox was hovering higher than the Ice Temple Lord, and he got everyone's attention."Who's that?""It's a Faeastian!""My God, it's the Nine-State Lord!" Nox was known throughout Faeast and the world. Brundela's council members had recognized him the moment he showed up. They had nothing but fear for gods, yet Nox was the strongest man in the Mortal World, so they respected him.The clouds in Brundela's skies were hanging heavily over the ground, and the icy aura they radiated was making everyone shiver. Winter seemed to have come early for Brundela. The temperature was dipping fast.Back in the control center, intelligence agents were watching the surveillance footage closely, and they noticed the altar. The Twilight Order and Ice Temple cultivators were there, strengthening the altars' seal the best they could. There were soldiers guarding the altar as well.For some reason, the secret agents had a feeling something bad was going to happen. Murphy's Law, as they said.Suddenly,

A sliver of energy flew out of the puppet and gathered natural energy around it. Then, the temperature rose at a blistering rate. Fortunately, Bard's reminder came just in time, and Vermilion Bird was prepared for this. She led her team away from the spot.A pillar of fire engulfed the building, and heat waves shot off in every direction, lethal and deadly. The light eventually faded, and all buildings in a few hundred yards were razed to the ground.If Vermilion Bird had killed the puppet without thinking just now, she would have lost all her men and suffered serious injuries. "That bitch! I'm going to make her into a human swine one day! I'll give her hell!" she cursed.Bard gasped. 'Yeah, women can be really terrifying.' Not one General was a normal person.This incident didn't escape Nox, of course. He saw it through his divine sense. "Heh, you can't fight the flow of history? You say that, Aphrodite, but you've done the same thing more than once. Schemes and plots when your ey
Revenge of the Night Chapter 1977 A Puppet
Aphrodite was a master manipulator. She knew the weaknesses of Nox's underlings, and she praised Bard, "At least you know where you stand, Bard. You never overreach. Though we failed to make you one of us, I still thought it'd be a shame to kill you."Bard smiled. "Oh, you're such an actor, Ms. Mousse. You know why we don't like you? Queenie is a genuine lady, just like our lord. You're far inferior to her. And don't flatter yourself. Of course, I know where I stand. I can't even reach the pinnacle of martial arts, let alone cultivation."No matter how smart I am, my lack of talents holds me back. I can never be made an important leader." He was only spared because he couldn't become a threat to the Mousses.Nox didn't use schemes because he didn't need them. Absolute power could trump any plot.Vermilion Bird clenched her teeth. "What is the meaning of this? The lord knows that the bitch is here?"Bard shook his head. Vermilion Bird was a smart woman, but Aphrodite made her lose
Revenge of the Night Chapter 1976 Aphrodite's Tactic
Aphrodite felt nothing but sorrow, and Vermilion Bird burst into laughter. "I expected nothing less from these people. Your men are just like their employers. Hey, knights, you guys want to find out more about Faeast martial arts? See those Mousse guys? They're masters. Deal with them."Vermilion Bird gave her orders. She knew these people would escape the moment she showed up. The knights flew off, going after the escaped Mousses. The Mousses were a family of warriors, while these knights were cultivators, to an extent. They wore mystical artifacts, and the Mousses' guys didn't have something like that.The battle was fierce but short. The Mousses' powerhouses were taken out, and the rest were dealt with by the Shadow Division."And now only you're left. Interesting, isn't it? Karma always bites you in the ass. You betrayed my lord, and now your men betray you. You deserve this," Vermilion Bird cursed."Yes, I deserve this, but as long as he wants to be the Nine-State Lord, then w

'The beating heart of this land?' The woman's underlings looked grim. They were supposed to be the master tacticians here. Yet, Nox played them like a cheap kazoo. 'He's a far better tactician than we expected!'Nox began his counterattack not long after the Ocean of Death incident. This woman was none other than Aphrodite, Nox's old flame. When she saw Brundela's fate stabilizing, she knew right then that things had gotten out of her hands."Tell the Mousses in Eropa to retreat right away. There is no need to stay here any longer. He's not attacking us because he's waiting for us to do the same. The moment our men try to start anything, he'll swoop in and take them all out. "No one can beat him if he decides to go all the way. Not even me," said Aphrodite.Suddenly, the Mousses' powerhouse noticed something. "I sense bloodlust. Who goes there? Show yourself!" The powerhouses unsheathed their weapons and stood around Aphrodite, protecting her.A group of black silhouettes appeare

Now they had one, and it was Elizabeth. Her speech awakened the bravery and courage lying within the people of Brundela. An overwhelming majority of the council members stood up and chanted, "Long live the queen! Long live Brundela!""Good." Nox noticed something. The fate of Brundela stopped its downward shift and was stabilizing."The Mortal World and mortals. The Realm of the Gods has been here for millennia, and still, I can't figure out how mortals work." The Ice Temple Lord was confused. These mortals were prone to deception and scams. They were weak and frail. Yet, they had the potential to unleash strength that could shock even the gods."It's solidarity. You guys wouldn't get it. You call yourselves gods and lock yourselves up in the Realm of the Gods. You try to enslave the world despite being so out of touch with it."Do you know why I call you false gods? True gods are omnipotent. Their word is law. They can change the rules that govern this world just by saying it, b
Revenge of the Night Chapter 1973 Speech
Ice Temple's Lord didn't even look at Dickson. The man was so crushed that there wasn't even a hint of arrogance left in his soul. The Ice Temple's Lord's technique locked his spirit. So, it was not severely weakened. Thus, He would die very soon, even without the Ice Temple's Lord attacking him."Please, leader of gods. You are the only true god. I swear my undying loyalty to you. Spare me, please!" Dickson begged for his life.Dickson finally met his match. The arrogant would-be king couldn't even do anything against the Ice Temple's Lord."Oh, I can save you, but what makes you think you're worth it? You're lower than scum, and you think you have the right to ask for my favor? Repent and pray, then I might make it quick for you. Refuse, and only unending hell awaits."That threat scared Dickson. He cried and begged for mercy. He cursed his own soul and put his faith in a god stronger than his master."And you think you deserve the gift of life, maggot? Open your eyes, mortals
Revenge of the Night Chapter 1972 Weakling
Two cultivators were fighting in mid-air, while the other Ice Temple cultivators made an invisible barrier to keep them in, or the council hall would be destroyed from the impact of the fight.The battle was awe-inspiring, and Dickson became smug. So what if his enemy was a leader of gods? Perhaps he was no match for one, but the Assad gods could easily destroy him if a slave could fight him for a prolonged period.Ice Temple's Lord realized that Dickson couldn't feel pain as the essence had nearly devoured his spirit. He was nothing if not feral, and he did not fear death at all. A brilliant idea appeared in his mind. He could create an army of fearless gods if he could get his hands on this technique.Nox said telepathically, "How much longer are you going to take? He's just a useless tribute. Do you honestly want to keep this up until he burns himself away?"Ice Temple's Lord's pupils contracted, and he looked at Nox. Nox looked up from his book. The Ice Temple Lord thought th
