With her heart still racing and beating violently, Aurora returned home feeling extremely thrilled and overjoyed.Meanwhile, in the Quinton family villa, Graham was waiting for her anxiously.He wondered if Charlie would agree to his request of the magical elixir.After all, the Quinton family was slightly higher ranked than Zeke White’s family in terms of social standing but they paled in comparison with Jasmine Moore’s family. He was afraid that Charlie would look down upon his family although he vowed to be his loyal follower.Even if the Moore family wanted to butter Charlie up, would there be a chance for him to showcase himself with the Moore family in the way?As he was pacing back and forth, worried, Aurora came back. He quickly ran out as soon as she parked her car in the villa’s courtyard.“Aurora, how did it go? Did Master Wade agree to our request?!”Tears drenching her eyes again when she nodded repeatedly.“Yes, Dad! He agreed to our request!”“That’s wonderful!”
The news about Charlie’s refining magical elixir spread like wildfire among several upper class families in Aurous Hill.Zeke White of the White family, Finn Baxendale of Treasure Pavilion, and Don Albert Rhodes of Heaven Springs heard the news. They were eager to ask Charlie for the medicine, but Zeke was the only one who really voiced out his request.Zeke was confident to do so since he had expressed his sincerity to Charlie and had even given him a Thompson First villa worth a hundred million dollars.He went to Charlie’s house in the afternoon since he was at home and asked for the magical elixir as Aurora did. Of course, Charlie didn’t turn down his request since he was quite comfortable to give him commands. His son and nephew were a bit stupid and badly behaved, but he had taught them lessons and now that Zeke was treating him with full respect and docility, there was no need to be stingy over one pill.Zeke bowed and thanked him profusely after getting an affirmative ans
Charlie couldn’t help stealing a few glances at Jasmine, who was truly dashing tonight.If he compared her with Claire, their outlook and body were almost equal, but in terms of temperament, Claire was a few grades beneath Jasmine.After all, Jasmine was the daughter of the prominent Moore family. Her temperament was definitely more classy than an ordinary woman.Meanwhile, Aurora walked towards Charlie and bowed as she blushed again.Unlike the mature and sentimental Jasmine, the unique fusion of Aurora’s heroic appearance with the aura of a timid young lady was a special blend.Aurora wore light makeup, the natural heroine vibe from her body emphasizing her characteristics like the snow lotus on the iceberg, which was very chilly and alluring.However, after she acknowledged her feelings towards Charlie, she blossomed like a flower under the spring sunshine that added a little tenderness and gentle in her aura. She looked at Charlie with a layer of pinkish blush painting her
Don Albert didn’t dare to speak loudly as the significant figures of the city gathered together. Even though they were in his restaurant, he walked behind everyone and wagged his tail at Charlie like a pug, hoping that he would bat an eye at him.Looking at the extravagant spread and the decoration, Charlie smiled at Don Albert and said, “Good job, Albert. Thank you for the arrangement.”Albert smiled like a child receiving candy and said, “It’s my pleasure to serve you. Please have a seat.”Charlie nodded and sat in the main seat of the table.Albert bowed graciously at Charlie and said, “Please just call for me if you need any assistance, I’ll be waiting by the door!”Then, he gingerly exited the suite and stood by the door like a waiter.Albert Rhodes was the king of the underworld in Aurous Hill, but right now, he was nothing but a good-for-nothing thug. He was not yet qualified to sit at the table with Charlie and his distinguished guests—it was already lucky enough for him
This was because of Charlie’s superb medical skills which were even better than his own ancestral medical skills. Therefore, he felt that it would be great if Xyla was fortunate enough to serve Charlie in the future, as she would have the opportunity to learn more about medicine from him.This was also one of the reasons why he had wanted to bring Xyla along for this dinner.Of course, the second reason was that he wanted to seek treatment from Charlie.He had already been tortured by his internal injuries for more than half his life, but he finally had the opportunity to get healed now!As he thought about this, Anthony gave Xyla a long look, hinting to her that she should look for an opportunity to get closer to Charlie.Xyla understood her grandfather’s intentions immediately and her cheeks turned crimson red as she felt extremely embarrassed.Lowering her head, she could feel a strong wave in her heart. From time to time, she raised her head slightly to look at Charlie as she
The pill that Charlie was holding in his hand was simply the medicine that he had concocted according to the prescription in the Apocalyptic Book. However, it was making everyone extremely excited.The crowd of people waited patiently as they stared at the crystal clear pills in the box, and they could feel their accelerated breathing.Amongst these people, Anthony was the oldest, and he was the most excited. This was because he knew that Charlie had a very unusual talent that even he could not comprehend at all.He had been suffering from a serious internal injury that had not been fully healed, and this internal injury had caused him to suffer from illnesses and bad health for more than half of his life.The last time he had tried some of the pills made by Charlie, his symptoms had improved a lot even though he had not been fully cured.When he heard that the effect of this new medicine would be ten times more effective than the pill that he had tried previously, Anthony could n
Charlie stopped him immediately and said, “Mr. Simmons, this medicine is too strong for you. You should only take half of the capsule to cure your old injury and illness. You should keep the remaining half of the capsule because it can prove to be of great use to you in the future.”Anthony was shocked because he really could not believe that he could be cured with just half of this pill. This was utterly amazing!As he thought about it, Anthony took out the dagger that he kept in his pocket and cut the pill in half. After that, he put one half of the pill into his mouth immediately.Everyone stared at him intently as they waited for a miracle to happen.A few seconds after Anthony had eaten the pill, color returned to his face immediately, and his complexion turned pinkish in an instance. He also began sweating profusely.Anthony could feel a warm and magical current running through his body now.He felt that his body was akin to the dried up mottled and cracked earth, and thi
To be honest, giving another pill to Jasmine meant nothing to Charlie at all.However, this was of great significance to Jasmine.At this time, Jasmine felt extremely touched and moved by Charlie’s action, and she felt that he was protecting and looking out for her.As Jasmine continued to stare at Charlie, he walked up to Zeke before holding out a pill. “Mr. White, this pill is for you.”Zeke shuddered all over and he quickly knelt like everyone else as he waited respectfully.Charlie placed the pill in his hand, and Zeke blurted out, “Thank you, Mr. Wade! Thank you for the medicine. I will unquestionably obey all of your orders in the future!”As he stared at Zeke who was kneeling on the ground, he said lightly, “Mr. White, your son and nephew have caused me a lot of grievances and anger in the past. If it were not for you, they would not be in this world anymore.”Zeke chuckled as he hurriedly replied, “Thank you, Mr. Wade. Thank you for your mercy and kindness.”Charlie sim
At one point, Sonia thought about summoning the courage to go to Charlie and beg him for mercy. But upon the thought of her previous arrogance and outrageous remarks, she resisted the urge. Thus, she became even more depressed and sat cross-legged, staring at the floor. Charlie only needed a glance to notice Sonia's dejection. After all, in a crowd of people cheering excitedly, she sat there silently, looking completely out of place. Charlie knew very well that Sonia's frustration was undoubtedly because he had sealed her meridians. On her own, she no longer had the possibility of further advancement. Recalling her earlier disrespectful remarks, he chalked it up to the personality of a young martial arts fanatic. It wasn't that Charlie was petty or unwilling to let go of past grievances, but the key issue was that he had already opened all of her meridians in one go. If he were to seal them back up, she would instantly become a master at the Great Perfection Realm of Illu
Albert then selected a few students to help him distribute a bottle of oral fluid to everyone. Even Caden, who had already reached the Great Perfection Realm of the Illuminating Realm, got his share. After the distribution, Charlie said, "What you're holding in your hands is a special supplement for strengthening the body and the meridians. After you take it, it will help your cultivation. If you happen to be at the critical stage of a realm breakthrough, you might be able to complete the breakthrough with this bottle of supplement." Everyone was especially excited when they heard that it was a medicine that could improve cultivation. For martial artists, the most valuable things were complete internal capabilities and supplements that could improve strength. Many martial artists spent their entire lives in arduous cultivation without ever receiving the assistance of any medicinal elixir. At times, they could feel that they were just one step away from breaking through to the nex
The people in the audience answered in unison, "Yes!" Some even said loudly, "Not only that, but it is extremely beneficial!" "Yes! The improvement is indeed very significant!" "My personal understanding of martial arts has also become much clearer!" Among the crowd, Sonia gathered the courage to say loudly, "Since coming here, cultivation has truly been twice as effective!" Charlie recognized her voice and curiously asked, "Miss Letterman, you trained under Master Howton too when you were in the United States, and it is the same here. Why does this place make you feel that way?" "I... Uh..." Sonia was taken aback as she did not expect Charlie to direct a question to her, so she stuttered nervously. "I speak only the truth and am not exaggerating. The reason I feel it is twice as effective lies mainly in three factors." With that, she paused briefly, gathered her thoughts, and continued, "The first reason is that when the Taoist Sect was in America, Master Howton was not
The next morning, Charlie met up with Nanako and drove to Champs Elys together. He wanted to send Nanako to the villa halfway up the mountain so that she could concentrate on improving her control of Reiki while he himself would take the oral fluid and distribute it to all the martial arts students. At the same time, Julien had already crossed the Pacific Ocean in a private plane, getting closer and closer to Aurous Hill with only a few hours left. While Charlie was on his way, Caden said to over 400 martial arts students who were doing morning training, "Guys, I have good news for you. Master Wade will come to see you later with gifts. He will give them to you personally." The students were excited upon hearing this. Aurora, Rosalie, the Harker family members, and the members of Ten Thousand Armies all knew that Charlie had a special medicine that could enhance the cultivation of martial arts. Although Sonia wasn't familiar with this, ever since she had arrived in Oskia, she c
Charlie dropped the formalities and said, "Thank you very much then, Miss Fox." "You're welcome, Mr. Wade," Kathleen said. "It's my honor to serve you." After reaching an agreement with Kathleen, Charlie then called Doris. Doris hadn't received a call from Charlie in a long time, so her voice was filled with excitement as she said, "Mr. Wade, what can I do for you?" Charlie replied, "Are you familiar with the situation at Sonfo Valley? I want to acquire the entire area, but I can't do it too conspicuously, so I can't offer a price that's too outrageous to avoid drawing attention. Do you think that will be difficult?" "Sonfo Valley..." Doris thought for a moment before speaking, "Sonfo Valley is an older residential area. After I took over Emgrand, I reviewed the company's previous documents. That land was actually something Emgrand considered competing for initially, but later, they gave up because the surrounding area lacked supporting infrastructure. It's located in the mou
Jacob rolled his eyes in annoyance and jeered, "Do you think money from rich families grows on trees? Working for wealthy people is just about the market price. Are you saying the janitor sweeping the floors at Apple makes a million dollars a year?" "You really have some nerve, Jacob Wilson!" Elaine scoffed and scolded. "How can you compare our sweet daughter to a janitor? So, in your eyes, Claire is on the same level as a janitor at Apple?" "That's not what I meant!" Jacob snapped and quickly explained, "What I'm saying is, even if you're working for Apple, you just earn what you're supposed to earn. Claire has done well in her field, and earning a few million a year is already pretty good. It's only been a short time since she went to the U.S. yet you're already expecting Miss Fox to pay her tens of millions? That's ridiculous!" Elaine rolled her eyes and disdainfully snarled, "Clearly, you don't understand the ways of the world. Miss Fox had Charlie help with Feng Shui multipl
Noticing Elaine's disappointment, Charlie quickly spoke up, "Honey, when are you coming back? Have you set a time?" Claire replied, "I plan to first finalize the project's documents and progress here as well as resolve any outstanding issues. If there's nothing else, I'll go back. If I can't finish today, it will probably be the day after tomorrow at the latest." "Have you checked the flights?" Charlie asked. "Are there any suitable flights for the day after tomorrow?" Claire replied, "Miss Fox suggested arranging her family's private jet to send me back, but I feel bad about it. A flight on a private jet costs over a million, and I can't let them spend that money." Elaine quickly interrupted, "Then just take a regular flight back and let her give you the money for the private jet. Convert it into a million!" Charlie hurriedly said, "They have plenty of planes. Even when they're not in use, they have to be maintained. The actual cost of flying one more trip isn't that high. B
Jacob and Elaine happened to be in the living room, so Charlie waved his phone at them and said, "Mom, Dad, it's Claire. I'll answer it here." The two stopped bickering instantly, and Charlie pressed the answer button. After the call was connected, Claire's beautiful face appeared on the phone screen. Seeing the background, Claire said in surprise, "Honey! You're home!" Charlie nodded. "I just got back today. Let me show you Mom and Dad." As he said that, he turned his phone around and pointed the front camera at Jacob and Elaine. Jacob asked worriedly, "Darling, when will you come back? I miss you!" Elaine interjected hastily, "Don't listen to your dad's nonsense. I miss you too, but it's a great opportunity that you're finally working with the Fox family in America. You must focus on your career. If you want, I can go over to take care of you!" "Mom, this is why I'm calling Charlie," Claire said with a smile. "I just finished the morning meeting with Miss Fox and the
Charlie responded with a smile, "Don't bother. I've already eaten." Jacob quickly stood up, walked over, and asked, "Why were you away for so many days this time?" Charlie answered, "The workload was a bit heavy this time. I visited several houses and factories, mainly because the client has strong financial power." "Wow!" Elaine exclaimed, very pleased, "A client with such strength must have paid quite a bit, right?" "Exactly." Charlie nodded and casually said, "This client was very generous with the payment. They even gave me an extra one million as travel expenses before I left." "My goodness!" Elaine shrieked. "One million just for travel expenses? What kind of godsent client is this?!" Jacob couldn't help but sigh, "Now, this is what it means to be rich. Giving an extra one million, that's just like a tip, right? They're really throwing money around like it's nothing!" At this point, Elaine seemed to remember something and quickly said, "I saw in the news that the yo
