When Jack saw that Charlie was persistent to the end, he could only sneer as he instructed Zeke. “It seems as though some people are really tired of living. No matter what it is, I will teach him where he stands. Zeke, please get me a three-pillar sandalwood, a purple gold incense burner, and a peach wooden sword. I will show him what a true master is.”Zeke did not dare to react slowly. Therefore, he quickly prepared all the items that Jack asked for.After a short while, Jack placed the sandalwood into the incense burner. At this time, thick clear smoke from the incense filled the air.Mr. Yaleman raised the peach wooden sword before he started chanting immediately.At this time, Graham, who was standing next to him, suddenly felt very dizzy as though someone had just given him a few shots. He endured it for a short while before he pleaded, “Mr. Yaleman, how long will this last…”“The ‘yin’ energy in your family is very heavy right now. That is the reason why it might take som
Charlie replied coldly, “That is your lifeline. The reason why the evil spirit could be appeased so easily is because Jack is using your life as a trade-off! Within three days, this red line will extend all the way to your elbow! After that, you will drop dead immediately. Jack is using all the virtues and good deeds that you have accumulated in your lifetime, and he is sacrificing your life in exchange for the lives of the rest of the Quinton family members!”Graham was shocked when he heard Charlie’s words. He froze in place because he was utterly shocked.Adam was also panicking at this time as he looked at the people around them.All of the masters who were present nodded slightly as they witnessed this scene. Graham will not live for more than three days.Adam knelt on the ground before he begged Jack, “Mr. Yaleman! Please, please save my second uncle’s life!”At this time, Jack stared at Adam with an arrogant expression on his face as he sneered and said, “I have already use
In less than five minutes, all the fresh dishes on the table had already turned rotten and countless black mosquitoes started emerging from the rotten food.There was a rooster that the White family had raised ever since it was a chick in the White family courtyard.A few black mosquitoes flew to the rooster at a very fast speed. After less than ten seconds, the rooster started screaming as it flapped its wings frantically. After that, it fell to the ground and started convulsing until it dropped dead.Within a few seconds, many large black mosquitoes started emerging from the feathers of the dead rooster.At this time, the black mosquitoes were densely packed in the sky as they rushed towards the crowd of people like a whirlwind.It was very chaotic in the courtyard as the crowd of people tried desperately to avoid the black mosquitoes, as not only were the black mosquitoes extremely poisonous but they could also enter a person’s flesh through a wound on the skin.Even though th
“No, no! He, he is not human! He is a god!”“No, don’t let the lightning strike me! I will kneel down and apologize to Mr. Wade immediately.”“Help me. I was wrong!”A few of the guests got down on their knees as they started bowing in front of Charlie.Graham was frozen in place from shock.However, the lightning only struck the black mosquitoes, turning them into coal without hurting anyone at all.At this time, Jack was extremely shocked and terrified!He would never have imagined that Charlie would have such tremendous powers!He was only an ant compared to Charlie!If he was stuck by the ferocious lightning, he would definitely drop dead in seconds!Jack started panicking at this time. Therefore, he quickly got up before he scrambled to escape out of the courtyard. He wanted to escape from Aurous Hill and never come back to this place again! How could there be such a venerable person in Aurous Hill?“Are you trying to escape?”Charlie smiled as he stretched his hand to
Everyone had been fighting for the leadership position with their lives earlier but right now, all of them were eager for Charlie to lead the entire metaphysics circle in Aurous Hill and even the Newton area. None of the guests had any objections at all as they have all been completely convinced by Charlie’s skills.They have never seen anyone else like Charlie who could command heavenly thunder and lightning with just one word!This was indeed the realm of metaphysics. Charlie had supernatural power beyond everyone’s imagination!When they looked at Jack, who was lying on the ground after being scorched by lightning, they knew that Charlie’s powers and strength were unfathomable. Therefore, they wanted Charlie to be their leader so he could lead and give them the best advice and guidance.Charlie frowned before he said, “I am not a member of the metaphysics circle and I do not usually study Feng Shui. I am also not really interested in metaphysics. Therefore, I hope you’ll allow F
Zeke was overjoyed and he clasped his hands together as he thanked Charlie. “Thank you for your kindness, Mr. Wade. I will definitely reflect on myself and I promise this will never happen again!”“Okay.” Charlie nodded in satisfaction.After that, Charlie looked at Graham who was still in shock at this time.Charlie asked him in a faint manner, “So, Graham, tell me. Did you really think that I lied to you so that I could cheat the Quinton family of your money?”Graham’s legs softened immediately and he knelt down before he said, “I dare not! I wouldn’t dare to! I was just confused for a moment but I’ve never lost confidence in you, Mr. Wade. I am now completely convinced that you are the true master in the metaphysics circle! Please forgive me, Mr. Wade!”After he spoke, Graham grabbed Adam by his collar before he yelled, “A*shole! Kneel down and apologize to Mr. Wade now!”Adam was already trembling in fear at this time. As soon as Graham yelled at him, Adam knelt down before C
Charlie left the White family mansion as everyone continued staring at him in awe.Jasmine could not stop herself from staring at him from time to time as she sent him home.At this time, Charlie had already turned into the same ordinary person that he had always been. He no longer looked like the powerful and strong man that he looked like earlier.Jasmine could not stop herself from feeling a little suspicious at this time.When Charlie was in the courtyard earlier, he exuded a very superior and mysterious aura.However, the Charlie who was sitting in the passenger seat next to her looked like an ordinary passer-by.Jasmine did not know whether this was intentional or whether it was just an illusion.Therefore, Jasmine could not help but asked, “Charlie…were you really the one who summoned the thunder and lightning just now?”Charlie looked at her before he smiled.“Why don’t you make a guess? Will you believe me if I told you that it was just a mere coincidence?”At this t
However, Charlie did not want to say anything about the villa he was about to receive because of Elaine’s current attitude.As Charlie was busy in the kitchen, Claire walked over to him before she said in a low voice, “Charlie, please don’t take my mother’s words to heart. She is just too vain and idealistic.”Charlie deliberately asked, “What did your mother say? I didn’t hear anything at all.”“Alright then, you can continue pretending. It would really be strange if you truly didn’t hear anything at all,” Claire replied as she poke Charlie’s forehead with her finger.Charlie took advantage of this opportunity to hold Claire’s hand at this time.Claire started blushing immediately and she looked around the kitchen before she retracted her hand immediately.However, Charlie refused to let go of her hand. Instead, he brought his hand closer to him as he took a closer look at her hand. Charlie smiled when he saw that Claire was wearing the bracelet that he made her. After that, he
Charlie shook his head and replied, "I live in another building." As he said that, he pressed the button for the first floor in the elevator. The woman nodded slightly and said with a smile, "I thought you two were a couple. You look so well-matched." "No, no..." Nanako, feeling embarrassed, quickly replied, "Uh... We're just friends." The woman nodded and stopped teasing her. The elevator soon reached the first floor. Charlie bid farewell to the two women, got off the elevator, and walked toward the villa area. At this moment, he could never have imagined that the woman who had been in the same elevator with him was actually an underling of his biological mother. The reason she had returned a step ahead of him was also part of a carefully planned arrangement. Ashley was worried that Charlie might overthink things, so she had deliberately arranged for the woman to appear in front of him, allowing him to confirm that the woman was just an ordinary person who knew nothing a
Just as Charlie and Nanako were about to get out of the car, a female driver exited her car in the parking space diagonally opposite. After locking her car, she carried her bag and walked toward the elevator hall. When Nanako saw the woman, she turned to Charlie and said, "Charlie, that is the neighbor I mentioned. That day, I overheard her talking to a friend on the phone, and that's how I found out that Master Jeevika was coming to Aurous Hill." Charlie nodded slightly and smiled, saying, "It seems we should thank her when we get the chance. With just one phone call, she inadvertently helped you attain enlightenment." "Yes!" Nanako fully agreed with Charlie's point, saying, "If it weren't for her, I might not have had the chance to attain enlightenment." She then asked, "Do you want to meet Master Jeevika? Maybe he can give you some inspiration." Charlie shook his head. "My situation is special, so it's better to avoid meeting strangers who have already attained enlightenme
Due to the time difference, Charlie did not immediately call Kathleen. However, he believed that this matter was a piece of cake for her, so he planned to call her in the evening to discuss it and then start working on the follow-up plans. So, Charlie said to Nanako, "I think there's no need for you to continue practicing martial arts. Instead, why not come with me to the villa this afternoon and help me out? Once we're done, we can both head back to Thompson First." Without hesitation, Nanako nodded and said, "I'm all yours." She then asked, "Should I inform Master Howton of my departure?" Charlie waved his hand and said, "He must still be teaching. Let's talk to him privately later." "Okay." After that, Charlie and Nanako went to his villa halfway up the mountain. Once they got to the basement of the villa, Nanako was taken aback by the sight of a simple fluid-filling machine with many unused bottles and caps nearby. She asked, "Why do you have pharmaceutical equipment
With this thought in mind, Charlie silently decided to spend more time at the villa in the future, where he could focus on studying cultivation. Perhaps he might discover a breakthrough path based on his current foundation. However, the thought of Holly's family living in the villa next door posed a dilemma. If he went there every day to practice in seclusion, he would inevitably have to pass by Holly's house. Out of courtesy, it would be impossible not to greet them. But once he started exchanging pleasantries, his efficiency would naturally decrease. Moreover, it would eventually cause a misunderstanding if Nanako were to go there every day as well. Thus, Charlie felt an eagerness to find a new place for cultivation. After some thought, the lakeside mansion that Kathleen had purchased under the alias Kylie when she was in Aurous Hill came to mind. The Quinton family's villa, located in the Sonfo Valley far from the city, was nestled among mountains and waters, boasting exce
Nanako could also feel that the energy available for her to draw upon in her Sea of Consciousness had suddenly surged. Her sensory abilities, which had already improved significantly after achieving enlightenment, instantly leaped to an even higher level. The Reiki within her body became exceptionally abundant. With just a slight movement of her divine sense, the Reiki immediately dispersed from within her, making the entire office feel as if it was under her bird's-eye view, completely under her control. Moreover, this sense of control continued to extend outward. In just a short moment, eight nearby rooms also fell within her perception range. Charlie could sense the Reiki Nanako was releasing. Observing her closely, he noticed that her body was already brimming with Reiki, suggesting that it was no longer possible for her to continue taking the elixir. After a while, Nanako retracted the Reiki she had been using for perception and looked up at Charlie, saying, "Previously I co
Although Nanako had just attained enlightenment, she had already realized a critical problem: the Reiki available to her was very little, and there was almost no external channel for obtaining Reiki. For cultivators today, getting Reiki was the most difficult thing. There was no Reiki in the world, so the only external channels to obtain Reiki were elixirs, spiritual stones, or formations. If someone had a complete cultivation method, he could generate Reiki in his body by practicing the method, but for people like Charlie and Nanako who lacked such methods, this self-sufficient path was not feasible. Therefore, the small amount of Reiki that was generated in Nanako's body when she attained enlightenment was basically used up after she tried to sense Reiki. Charlie was slightly better than Nanako. The spiritual stones he accidentally obtained in the early days provided him with a lot of Reiki. Later, he relied on Cultivating Pills to barely make up for the gap in Reiki. Altho
Nanako giggled gently, thinking that Charlie was exaggerating. "You're so funny, Charlie. Who could possibly fail to attain enlightenment for hundreds of years? Those who haven't probably wouldn't live that long anyway, right?" Charlie smiled ambiguously. The matter concerning Vera was, of course, something he couldn't share with anyone, including Nanako. However, it was indeed a fact that Vera, despite taking the Eternal Pill and living for so many years, still hadn't attained enlightenment. Moreover, back in the day, Fumiko had served Marcius faithfully for an entire lifetime. From the paintings, it was evident that Marcius was genuinely devoted to Fumiko at that time. Otherwise, he wouldn't have returned to fulfill his promise after obtaining his opportunities. Yet, despite receiving Marcius's wholehearted support, Fumiko still failed to achieve enlightenment. In contrast, Nanako had managed to attain enlightenment so effortlessly, merely through the guidance of a monk.
Caden didn't know what kind of gifts Charlie was planning to give everyone, but from his perspective, since each of the over 400 people would receive one, it was likely something that could be bought with money. Caden was as rich as a king and wasn't particularly interested in things that money could buy. However, since Charlie had mentioned it, he naturally wanted to show his support. He expressed his gratitude, saying, "Despite your busy schedule, you're still thinking of us. I'm truly honored, and on behalf of everyone, I thank you." Charlie chuckled. "You're welcome." Caden respectfully replied, "If there's nothing else, I'll go ahead and ask Miss Ito to come over." "Okay." Caden retreated and went back to the martial arts hall. He called Nanako over and said in a low voice, "Miss Ito, Mr. Wade is at the manager's office right now. He wants to see you." "What?" Nanako squealed in pleasant surprise. "Mr. Wade is here? Oh my, I'll go over now! Thank you, Master Howton."
After that, Charlie asked, "Has everything been going well here lately?" Caden clasped his hands respectfully and replied, "Everything has been going very well. With the follow-up mental techniques you provided from the Taoist Sect Hanbloom Method, everyone's foundations are very solid. This batch of students has made the fastest progress I've seen in all my years of teaching." Charlie remembered his disciple, Sonia, who had previously taken the entire Taoist Sect to Oskia on her own initiative, effectively becoming part of his sect. Since he didn't have time to manage them, he had left everything under Caden's supervision. Curious, he asked, "How are the Taoist Sect disciples doing in their training?" Caden responded, "These disciples' training progress has been much faster than when they were in the United States. Sonia is now like a workaholic, training all day, every day, and her progress is astonishing—beyond my expectations." He continued, unable to hide his admiration, "
