Donald was still sound asleep when he was woken up by the phone call from Isaac. On the phone, Isaac told Donald that Charlie had requested for him to take Sean to Aurous Hill immediately by helicopter. Donald did not dare to delay, thus, he got up quickly and took his son straight to Aurous Hill. At ten o’clock in the morning, Donald’s helicopter approached Isaac’s hotel slowly. During the descent of the helicopter, Donald couldn’t help but think of the scene where he and his son had been directly beaten up and kicked out of the place by Isaac’s people the last time they were here. That had been the most humiliating day of Donald Webb’s life. Not only were Johnny Castro and a lot of Webb family’s masters humiliated and had very humiliating sentences engraved onto their foreheads, but Donald and his son had also been beaten by Isaac. Looking back at that moment, Donald clenched his fist involuntarily. However, he suddenly thought of The Big Eight that was buried at the
Donald continued, “If the Schulz family truly wanted to go against Master Wade, he might even kill off Cadfan Schulz by himself. With his ability, he could have killed off all the Schulz family members one by one. In my opinion, the reason why he still keeps this old man alive might be the same reason as to why a cat catches a mouse but doesn’t eat it. This is not to eat the mouse, but to play with him and torture him.” Sean couldn’t help but panic. When Donald saw him turn pale, he sternly reminded, “When we meet up with Master Wade later, you must talk to him with the utmost respect. Put your prideful posture down to the lowest level. If I didn’t ask you to talk, you keep your mouth shut, understand?!” Sean immediately nodded. “I understand, Father…” When the helicopter landed on the roof of the hotel, Isaac was already waiting there. Donald brought Sean along as they walked out of the helicopter and immediately made their way toward Isaac. When they reached him, Donald pol
In Charlie’s opinion, since the Schulz family was facing a critical crisis, coupled with the fact that they were now being cast aside by the people in the whole country, they would naturally have to add new assistance to their camp.Moreover, it just so happened that Cadfan had already gone to Sudbury at this time. Therefore, Charlie speculated that Cadfan would most likely try to take the initiative to win Donald over so that he could turn him into the Schulz family’s henchman.People like Donald would not have meant anything in the eyes of the Schulz family in the past. Even if Donald were to make a trip to Eastcliff to ask to meet up with the Schulz family, Cadfan would never have allowed him to meet him at all.However, things were different this time.The Schulz family was isolated and helpless now. So, they had to try and win over as many new teammates as possible regardless of whether it was in Eastcliff or Sudbury.Therefore, Charlie wanted Donald to become his spy so that
At this time, Sean, who had not dared to speak at all as he was standing by Donald’s side, could not help but feel very excited.Charlie smiled as he said, “Of course, I will be able to cure them. However, I have to tell you in advance that even if you help me to do things well this time, I can only help you cure one of your sons.”As soon as Charlie said these words, Donald had a slightly disappointed expression on his face. He immediately thought to himself, ‘He can only cure one of my sons?! Charlie is obviously making it very clear that he wants to use my sons as leverage to make sure that he has me under control!’However, no matter what it was, it would be better for him to be able to cure one of his sons rather than none at all.He truly felt very sorry for his youngest son. Therefore, if he had the opportunity to cure his youngest son’s illness, he would be able to make up for one of his greatest regrets.So, Donald immediately agreed to Charlie’s request as he said, “Mast
Sean’s words immediately touched Donald’s heart.As a father, he naturally felt that his youngest son, Kian, was even more pitiful.However, as the head of the family, he realized that if he had the opportunity to cure any one of the two brothers, choosing to cure his eldest son, Sean, would certainly be a much more cost-effective decision.‘As Sean has said, Kian’s incident has already left a very deep impression on the people in the whole country before this. It could be said that he has already left an unforgettable impression on everyone.’‘So, even if I have the opportunity to cure Kian and return him to his normal state, as long as he appears in front of the public’s field of vision, it will certainly awaken everyone’s unforgettable memory of him…’‘After all, even if he was completely healed, he cannot possibly go around telling and explaining to others that he would not need to eat that kind of thing anymore in the future…’As soon as he understood this fact, Donald decid
The butler replied truthfully, “Lord Schulz, the influence of the video is still expanding greatly. It has already gradually spread overseas from within the country. The overall public opinion on this matter is extremely detrimental to the Schulz family.”“Also, Jefferson from the Dunn family has already tried calling you at least ten times. I did not dare to answer his call at all…”“Several leaders in Eastcliff have also called us to question us about this matter. They are all very angry about this matter, and they want the Schulz family to give them a clear explanation and solution to this matter. I gave them the excuse that this matter will have to be temporarily delayed because you are currently ill. However, they want you to give them a clear statement about this issue within twenty-four hours…”Cadfan could not help but sigh as he ground his teeth and said, “Since the short video platform belongs to the Wade family, it is definitely impossible for us to engage in any public r
To win Donald over, Cadfan asked his butler to bring some gifts with him when he went to visit the Webb family.The Schulz family’s chief butler had the same qualifications and status as Stephen, and he might even be more powerful in comparison. Besides, the chief butler not only represented himself, but he also represented the head of the Schulz family, Cadfan. Therefore, the fact that Cadfan was asking the chief butler to visit Donald in person was already giving the Webb family a lot of face.Cadfan attached great importance to winning the Webb family over. That was the reason why he had personally sent the chief butler to visit them on his behalf.Cadfan also knew very well that he was already a person that was hated by everyone right now. Therefore, it would be impossible for him to return to Eastcliff within this short period of time.Therefore, he would have to be prepared to stay in Sudbury for a long time.This incident gave him the feeling of similarity to the period of
Aside from acting as a protection amulet, the will could also act as family insurance.An ancient king would often be worried that his heir would be a fatuous and self-indulgent ruler that would throw away all of the country’s blessings, without leaving any blessings behind for the future generations.As for the modern wealthy men, they would also be afraid that their heirs would end up becoming prodigal sons and ultimately ruin the family inheritance.Therefore, almost every wealthy man would set up a trust fund. That way, if he did not have any worthy descendants to succeed him and inherit the family, the wealthy man would simply hand all of the family’s assets and properties over to the trust fund so that he could ensure that the descendants of their family would be able to live in comfort forever. That way, they would always have money to spend and they would never lose their property.Furthermore, the rule of relying on the number of descendants to gain even more living expens
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, "
