Chapter 97

Author: Jason Chord
Dawson froze, Terrence's furious words still ringing in his ears.

"You ungrateful brat! I've told you countless times to keep a low profile, but no. You had to flaunt yourself everywhere!

"And now look at what you've done—our entire family is ruined! The Hobbs family is done for! Decades of hard work are gone overnight…"

"Dad?" Dawson shouted, panic overtaking him.

The call abruptly ended. Dawson's hands trembled as he stared at his phone, his entire body cold as ice. It felt as though the walls were closing in, suffocating him.

Dawson slumped to the ground, his face pale and lifeless. His mind raced, trying to comprehend what had just happened.

He wondered who did this.

He racked his brain, desperate to identify the culprit. But in recent weeks, he had been careful to avoid offending anyone of importance. He had no enemies powerful enough to orchestrate something of this magnitude.

Then, a face flashed in his mind.

"Gideon!" He gasped.

But he quickly shook his head, dism

    "What did you just say?" Rachel asked."Ms. Avila, our corporate account suddenly has five billion dollars deposited into it! What should we do?" The finance director was practically in tears, overwhelmed not with joy but with sheer panic.Five billion dollars wasn't just an astronomical sum—it was liquid cash. Even at its peak, the Avila family had never come close to handling this much cash. The finance director was terrified. Money of such a scale would undoubtedly attract attention from the banks, law enforcement, and regulatory authorities, making a joint investigation inevitable. How could they explain it? This wasn't just a financial windfall. It was a potential disaster."Ms. Avila, please think of something!" the director pleaded, nearly jumping out of his skin."Calm down," Rachel said, waving him off. "You can leave the room for now."The finance director hesitated but ultimately complied, shutting the door behind him.Rachel let out a long breath, staring at Gid

    Maisy tried to console Sebastian, "That's right, Seb. That trash Gideon must be completely finished by now.""Sebastian!" At that moment, a burly young man strode into the room."Cameron!" Sebastian's eyes lit up.This man was his friend from the underworld, Cameron Mitchell, who came from a family with considerable influence. Rumor had it they commanded a force of 800 men, making them a mid-tier power in Goldspire's underworld.Cameron asked with concern, "Are you alright, Sebastian?""I'm fine," Sebastian replied dismissively with a wave of his hand. "Where's Dawson? Isn't he with you? Have you dealt with Gideon yet?"Cameron hesitated, his expression awkward. "Not yet."Sebastian frowned. Cameron went on to explain, "Something happened. The Hobbs family suddenly suffered a devastating blow. And their company is on the verge of collapse.""What?" The Morins were immediately alarmed. Sebastian asked, "What's going on?""I'm not quite sure," Cameron replied. "All I know is

    The only solace Sebastian felt when answering the call was that it wasn't from his father—just an unknown number. He forced himself to remain calm and answered, "Hello, who is this?""Is this Sebastian Halton?" a cold and formal voice replied."Yes, it's me," Sebastian said cautiously."This is the Governmental Accountability Office of Aloport. We've received reports that you're involved in multiple instances of corruption and misconduct. You are hereby summoned for investigation. Where are you currently located?"The words hit Sebastian like a thunderbolt. His face turned pale, and his body trembled. No official could remain composed upon hearing from the Governmental Accountability Office—it was a bureaucratic nightmare capable of ending careers overnight."T-There must be some mistake," Sebastian stammered. "I'm—""No need for explanations. The office has issued an official summons. Where are you right now?" the voice interrupted."I-I'm in Goldspire, Verdura," he managed

    Marion added, "I support this decision wholeheartedly. Whoever objects to it will make an enemy out of me and Elara!"Arnold was stunned, to say the least. Since both Marion and Elara had already stood their ground, he decided not to go against them."Can't we wait a little longer? Let's give Gideon some time. Perhaps he might be able to help the Snows rise back to their former glory.""Dad, do you even believe the things you just said?"Elara stared at Arnold in the eye. The latter fell silent after hearing her words.Times were different now.The Snows' situation was already bad from the start. To make things worse, Gideon had gone missing for five years, meaning that he was alienated from society during that period. One could say that he was completely severed from the current business trends. If he truly wanted to bring glory back to the Snows, the chances of him succeeding were a lot lower than him winning a jackpot."Dad, I'm your only daughter. My happiness is the mos

    Kyla wanted nothing more than to witness Elara and Gideon getting a divorce right away. That way, she'd stand a chance in getting together with Gideon.Elara replied, "Alright. I'll call him right away.""Ella!" Arnold called out to her.Before he could continue speaking, Elara cut him off irritatedly, "Dad, you already gave me your word! Don't tell me you're going to stop me again! You're an elder now—don't change your mind on a whim!"Arnold was rendered speechless by Elara's words.Elara was about to call Gideon when she realized she didn't even have his phone number. "Dad, I don't have Gideon's phone number. I need you to call him and tell him to go to the courthouse. Let's go, Kyla."After that, both ladies left the house without looking back.Marion quickly urged, "What are you sitting around for? Hurry up and place the call!"Arnold could only sigh. Finally, he got in contact with Gideon."Gideon, where are you right now?""I'm at my family's company.""Um… I need to

    Gideon and Elara were forced into marriage anyway. Since they didn't have feelings for each other, divorce meant nothing to them. If anything, they'd feel relieved once they were free from their marital bond.It was just that Gideon had always been cold and aloof when it came to romantic relationships. He didn't have any urges at all.Waverly was a good example. Back then, Gideon had almost gotten engaged to Waverly. But now, he merely viewed her as his younger sister. He didn't like her romantically at all.Gideon gave Waverly and Qyra physical checkups. It turned out that both of them were recovering nicely. At least, color was restored to their faces, and their eyes were brimming with life once again."Gideon, we're sick and tired of staying on Beaker Island. Is it okay for us to go out and have fun?" Qyra asked pitifully.Waverly added, "My thoughts exactly!"Gideon replied with a smile, "Since you two asked nicely, why would I turn you down? Let's go. I'll take you out for a

    "What's your name, young lady?" Lavinia asked."I'm Anna Sullivan.""Here. Take this." Lavinia gave her own bangle to Anna. "This is my private token. Should you land yourself in trouble of any form, you can visit the Mosley family in Drammore with this bangle. You'll receive the help you need there."Anna was shocked. "Ms. Mosley, this token is too precious! I—""It's just an accessory. Just take it. Think of it as my gift to you for our first meeting." Lavinia then smiled at Anna. "Anna, can you contact the Warrior King right now? We're running out of time because of the dire situation at the border.""Okay. I'll give it a try."Anna stowed the bangle away carefully before calling Gideon on the phone.Unfortunately, Gideon had set his phone on airplane mode because he wanted to focus on enjoying the day with Waverly and Qyra. The call didn't go through at all."I'm sorry, Ms. Mosley. I can't reach him at the moment. I think Mr. Snow will be back soon. Why don't you stay i

    "You're a bunch of shameless pervs!"Waverly didn't spare the men's pride at all. She warned, "Please leave us alone! Otherwise, we'll call the cops on you!"The men cackled."What are they talking about? Calling the cops on us? Cutie, I guess you don't know who we are, eh?" a bald man crowed haughtily. "This beach resort belongs to me! Not only that, but I also own a few entertainment establishments here! My net worth is 300 million dollars, you know!"He continued, "This right here is the CEO of Lighthart Group! His net worth is a billion dollars! As for that man, he's…"The bald man introduced his companions one by one. All of them were billionaires.Qyra just huffed coldly. "So what? You're nothing to me! I'm going to warn you one more time—get out of my sight right now!""Oh? You're a feisty one, aren't you?"The bald man licked his lips while grinning lecherously. "I've seen too many women like you. You pretend to be innocent when you're secretly a whore on the inside.

    Gideon declared coldly, his voice void of any sympathy, "That's not something I can allow. I'm afraid this is the end for you." The instant the young man clad in black stole the inner core, his fate was sealed."No!" The man screamed in desperation, his face contorted with unwillingness.Suddenly, a fighter jet roared into view, and a startled voice called out, "Giles, what are you doing here?"The young man in black, Giles Terrell, looked up to see a figure dressed in purple standing at the jet's cabin door. Hope surged within him, as if he'd found a lifeline.Giles cried out, "Francis! Help me!"However, Francis Hurst's eyes were riveted on the inner core, a greedy gleam flickering within them.Francis thought that it was fate for him to stumble upon the alpha beast's inner core. If he seized it and used it for his cultivation, he'd surely surpass the young leaders of factions like Martialgarde and Warbringer Gate. Giles had truly given him a wonderful opportunity.Wi

    "Why are you pursuing me so persistently? Whoever reaches the inner core first should rightfully claim it. You were careless, so consider this a learning experience. Isn't that reasonable? Must we really end in a situation where both of us lose?" the young man taunted. "A learning experience? That's truly amusing. You steal my inner core and have the nerve to call it a lesson. You certainly have a lot to say," Gideon retorted coldly. He extended his hand, and a massive shadow hand materialized from above. It was the Clausum Palm. The alpha beast, ridden by the young man in black, sensed the immense power of the handprint and froze in fear, dropping to the ground. "Blast it!" The young man in black was so furious that he nearly coughed up blood. Forced to leave the alpha beast, he continued fleeing on foot. He retaliated with a punch, smashing the hand. "Oh? You still have the energy to fight back. Impressive. You're quite the young talent. What a shame you chose to seek you

    Out of nowhere, a chain shot up from below, snagging the inner core and swiftly dragging it away. "What?" Gideon erupted in fury. Who would dare snatch from a tiger's jaws? This person had some guts. "Stop!" he roared. With a thunderous force, he cut through the toxic miasma, reaching for the chain. But the thief was no ordinary being. They were a formidable opponent, retracting the chain with remarkable speed. Gideon caught a glimpse of a flickering figure in the jungle. "The inner core I captured isn't something just anyone can take. Let's see if you can escape my clutches," Gideon threatened, his voice resonating with intensity. The figure in the jungle hesitated, a chill running down their spine, yet they didn't relent and fled with the inner core.The fighter jet descended rapidly. But with the dense canopy of ancient trees in the jungle, aerial navigation was not possible. Gideon landed a backhand strike on Kori, rendering him unconscious to prevent any interferenc

    Jake let out a terrified scream. He quickly adjusted the fighter jet's course, but just then, a tentacle burst forth from the dense, poisonous fog. The tentacle was black and moved with alarming speed, reaching the jet in mere moments as if intent on tearing it apart. "Fire!" Jake activated the attack system, and over a dozen missiles were launched. The attack was successful, as the tentacle was blown into a gruesome mess. In the distance, a thunderous roar echoed, shaking the heavens and earth—the Shadowgnaw Overlord had felt the pain. Suddenly, more than 30 black shadows emerged from the toxic cloud."Damn it!" Jake swore. He struggled to continue operating the fighter jet amid the overwhelming number of tentacles. Their firepower was no longer enough. Desperately, he called out, "Sir!" At that moment, Gideon sprang into action. Rather than destroying the tentacles, he reached out and seized the one lunging at them. With a powerful yell, he unleashed the strength of

    Luckily, Gideon's fighter jet was a state-of-the-art model, so flying through the poisonous haze wasn't a significant problem. Suddenly, a piercing scream reverberated inside the jet, making it shake violently. Kori's face went white as he yelled, "This is bad! It must be the Shadowgnaw Bug. They're venomous creatures that can survive in this toxic fog. An adult Shadowgnaw Bug can reach the size of a lion or tiger, and the Shadowgnaw Overlord is even scarier, being as big as an elephant." Just as he finished speaking, another high-pitched cry sounded. The fighter jet shook uncontrollably and began to dive. Jake did everything he could to keep the jet stable. If the jet had been a regular aircraft, it would likely have broken apart by now. Kori looked deeply concerned. "Based on the strength of that cry, it seems we've run into the Shadowgnaw Overlord." "What's the big deal about one bug? Can it really be that dangerous?" Gideon scoffed, signaling Jake to open the cockpit door.

    Gideon trusted Kori completely, as Kori's life depended on him, leaving no room for hidden agendas. The fighter jet soared eastward at high altitude. Gideon was immersed in studying the Book of Medicamentum. He vaguely remembered Titus once mentioning the pure-essence physique and other rare physiques, such as the pure solar physique. These were subtly referenced in the Book of Medicamentum. His current task was to uncover information about the pure-essence physique in the latter part of the Book of Medicamentum. If successful, he might learn how to harness the methods concerning the pure-essence physique himself, enabling Elara to fully awaken and transform. Silence enveloped the entire fighter jet.That evening, the jet touched down on the summit of a large mountain. The pilot, Jake Clythe, was weary from hours of flight, was instructed by Gideon to take a one-hour break. Gideon and Kori also disembarked from the aircraft.The landscape was filled with overlapping mountains

    Kori was overwhelmed with fear. "What are you doing? What have you done to me?" he exclaimed. Gideon smirked. "Don't worry. I've just set up three 'fuses.' As long as you behave, nothing will happen. But if you try anything funny, I can make your head explode with just a thought. And don't think about removing the golden needles. I won't be responsible for what happens if you do." Kori's expression flickered between anger and resignation. It was deeply humiliating for someone who had traveled the world all his life to be treated as such in his later years. However, he had no other options. Taking a deep breath, Kori calmed himself and dismissed his hostile thoughts, turning his focus to assess Elara's condition. Gideon observed from the side. No one could tell what secret method Kori was using, but gradually, the air temperature rose. This was due to the contraction of pure essence energy. Half an hour later, Kori wiped the sweat from his forehead and smiled. "It's done. The

    "Do you want me to be honest with you?" Kori prodded. "What? Can't you solve it? Then, you're destined to fail." A fierce, murderous intent flashed in Gideon's eyes. Kori quickly responded, "The pure-essence physique is extremely rare. If it were a martial artist with a robust constitution, I could safely help them awaken it. But your wife is just an ordinary person. Her body is too fragile, and I can't take that risk. "Though your medical skills are impressive, you can't guarantee her safety. The only solution is to find Mr. Ruggeweyn or Mr. Warth. They possess secret techniques that can awaken the pure-essence physique without risk. "However, I'm not entirely helpless. I can use a secret technique right now to suppress the essence, preventing any leakage of pure essence energy. This could safeguard your wife's body and possibly help her regain consciousness. Do you want me to proceed?" Gideon asked, "Where are Mr. Ruggeweyn and Mr. Warth? If you can reach them, do so qu

    "Who on earth are you?" Kori asked. His face twisted with fury as he ran desperately, with Gideon relentlessly pursuing him like a hawk after its prey. It was both insulting and disgraceful! "Argh!" Eventually, Kori couldn't bear it any longer. He stopped and bellowed, "I'd rather die than be shamed. Kid, I'll fight you to death!" Kori spat out a mouthful of blood, unleashed a secret technique, and launched a powerful attack. Gideon's expression turned serious at that moment. He calmly extended his fist and declared, "Doombringer Knuckle!" The brilliant glow of his fist surged forward with determination. Kori's attack was instantly destroyed, and he was sent flying, his body nearly breaking apart. He crashed hard into a dirt pit and couldn't rise again. "Sir, watch out!" Harper yelled with all her strength just then. Gideon raised an eyebrow. More and more advanced weapons were being launched. Several missiles sped toward them. In fact, the high-tech weapons had been re
