Jimmy quickly nodded. "Of course. See you, Mr. Lawrence."

He watched as Frank headed off into the distance before wheeling on Gina and Peter. "Who are you? I've never seen you around before."

"Oh, we…" Gina stammered frantically.

Chris promptly went up and said, "They're my relatives. I invited them."

"Yes, yes, yes," Peter quickly nodded. "We're Mr. Steiner's relatives."

Jimmy said nothing to that but instead leveled Chris a cool glare. "You'd better keep an eye on them."

"O-Of course," Chris said awkwardly.

He would never dare throw a fit against Skywater Bay's security, because he did not own any mansions.

In fact, he did not even live there.

Jimmy, who was privy to what's going on in every house, was naturally in the position to warn him.

However, Gina was still too shocked after finding out that Frank owned a mansion to notice that detail.

"H-How did he get a Skywater Bay mansion?" she stammered.

"Yeah…" Peter was equally confused. "Aren't these mansions reserved as gi

    Frank said, "Well, I'm actually free."Kenny grinned right then. "In that case, would you like to visit my dojo? I'd really like you to check on my father's condition…"Frank then remembered he promised to do that much, and he was never one to renege on promises. "Of course! I was just thinking about visiting myself."-After buying what he needed, Kenny took Frank to his dojo by car toward the eastern edge of the city.The dojo was the size of four soccer fields and had a legion of apprentices, making them one of the four biggest dojos of Riverton.Once they arrived, Kenny led the way, cutting past the training area where many apprentices were practicing blade techniques and into the inner hall.They arrived at Jenson Sparks' room, and Frank saw the man laying in bed as soon as he entered.The man actually appeared spirited, but his essence appeared to be waning—his age only made his mortality that much obvious as well.Nonetheless, Kenny strode up to him, announcing delighte

    "There's no need to go that far," Frank said slowly. "I'll take your father's pulse for now.""Of course…" Kenny replied, and Frank walked up to Jenson, putting his fingers on the latter's wrist and feeling his pulse.Soon, his brow furrowed, though he soon relaxed before furrowing his brows again.The process kept repeating for a long while, until Rolf eventually had enough. "Are you really taking Uncle Jenson's pulse, you brat?!"Jenson then assured him, "You have nothing to worry about, Mr. Lawrence. You may speak freely."Frank slowly opened his eyes just then, and Kenny quickly asked, "How's my father, Mr. Lawrence?""His condition is very serious," Frank replied. "He has sustained internal injuries from his youth, and he has been indulging in vices such as alcohol and smoking instead of cultivating his health. At seventy, he has basically reached the end of a normal lifespan.""What?!" Kenny was left thunderstruck and stumbling backward, just as regret seized him.His fat

    Frank's eyes darted everywhere.The Sparks family had certainly hoarded a trove of treasures from themselves, from antique weapons and esoteric texts to endless medicinal ingredients.However, most of them were not that useful for Frank, and he soon asked, "Do you happen to have a 100-year-old panacea polypore?""A panacea polypore?" Kenny did a double take. "Would a 30-year-old do?""No, it has to be a hundred years old." Frank shook his head—the panacea polypore was one of the main ingredients for the Rejuvenation Pill, although around 600 grams would be enough to make a hundred pills.As such, even a small one would do.Kenny quickly said, "Don't worry, Mr. Lawrence. Our dojo's apprentices are everywhere—just say the word if you really need it, and they will definitely get one for you."Frank nodded. "In that case, I'm counting on you, Mr. Sparks. I owe you one."Kenny was actually shocked. "You're exaggerating. It's only right that I help you."If anything, having Frank ow

    "Mr. Sparks!" Rolf cried, his heart almost leaping out of his throat.The servants paled in shock too, while Frank remained perfectly calm.Rolf wheeled on him right then, his expression savage as he demanded, "You! What did you feed my uncle?! Why did he suddenly vomit blood?!""That's normal," Frank replied calmly. "Mr. Jenson is quite old, and the Ichor Pill works by breaking down his cultivation and then rebuilding it. He will be better soon enough."With that, he started toward the door. "I'll be going now if there's nothing else.""Trying to run?! Get him!" Rolf bellowed, not believing him at all.Many of the dojo apprentices promptly came at his call, blocking Frank's path.Frank frowned as he turned toward Rolf. "You don't believe me?""I believe my own eyes. You will pay for what you did to my uncle!" Rolf barked. "Take him!"The apprentices charged at Frank right then, who shook his head exasperatedly.With a single step, he vaulted into the crowd, his body light as

    "Not just better. I feel spirited!" Jenson exclaimed, flexing his arms while nodding in approval. "Mr. Lawrence's Ichor Pill is certainly miraculous.""Haha! Like I said, Mr. Lawrence is the greatest miracle worker of Riverton." Kenny laughed and turned toward Rolf. "And you'd actually send our apprentices after him. You ignorant fool.""What?!" Jenson was growing at Rolf right then. "You attacked Mr. Lawrence?!""No, I mean…" Rolf mumbled, scratching his head awkwardly. "You were puking blood after you took the pill, and I thought you were poisoned…""Preposterous!" Jenson barked and hurried outside.Fortunately, Frank had not left, and Jenson promptly waved at him. "I'm so sorry for what happened with Rolf, Mr. Lawrence. Please don't take it to heart…"Even if they could not befriend Frank, they must never make an enemy out of him.Frank actually did not take offense anyway. "I won't take issue with such frivolity. You're better now, Mr. Sparks, and that's all that matters."

    A pill as miraculous as the Ichor Pill would definitely be wildly popular once it hit the market, and Kenny's family was willing to invest in it. Even just ten percent of the shares would do!"So that's why you've come." Frank smiled. "Then I shall be frank—it's impossible to produce Ichor Pills in bulk, because each cauldron worth of pills requires a drop of a martial elite's essence.""Really?!" Kenny exclaimed, realizing with a start. "Oh, so that's why you never sold it for money… I never knew making the pill alone comes at such a huge cost."In reality, Frank did not consider his essence that big of a deal. For martial artists who had yet to perfect their vigor, however, it was a treasure—and where would they get the essence of martial elites even if they had the recipe?After some further discussion about martial arts, Kenny quickly excused himself.As he left Frank's room and passed through the antehall, he ran into Rolf.Rolf had actually been waiting for a while.

    It took a long while for Helen to come to her senses. "Cindy? When did you come back to the country?"Cindy was supposedly studying abroad and would only return next year.Still, Cindy flashed a sweet smile right then, "Actually, I recently started a company with a partner, and we're aiming to get into the Riverton market. You have to help me out, Helen—business is booming in Lane Holdings, so you can't forget about the rest of us.""Oh, what are you saying?" Gina exclaimed. "If you want to start a business, Helen can let you manage one of our subsidiaries. Why partner with others?""Mom." Helen quickly cut her short. "Cindy must have her own plans since she's partnering with friends."Lane Holdings was short on money themselves, and giving away a subsidiary right now was no different from cutting off a piece of themselves. Moreover, Helen knew how vain her mother got with her family, but she had to think for herself too!Thankfully, Cindy shook her head. "That's alright, Aunt Gi

    Kenny was surprised that the panacea polypore was that popular.And since he had promised Frank that he would get it for him, it would be awkward if someone else bought it instead.Still, Frank went up to the worker and said, "Can we meet the owner? I'm willing to buy it at a high price.""Yes… Yes!" Kenny nodded in response, whipping out a stack of dollar bills and handing it to the worker. "You can have this—take us to the owner right now."The worker was left staring at the fat stack of cash, his awkward expression instantly turning into a smile. "This way please, gentlemen."-At the back of Vintagers, Cindy was just exclaiming excitedly, "Mr. Wicker, do show us the panacea polypore!"Johnny Wicker, the pudgy owner of Vintagers, was all smiles as he drew out a wooden chest. "Calm down, miss—this is it, the panacea polypore. Five million dollars, and I won't take any bargaining."Cindy quickly turned toward Gina. "You can pay him now, Aunt Gina.""Huh… actually, is it reall

    Frank snorted. "Alright, I'm hanging up. I'm getting started over here soon.""Yeah. Good luck," Jouri replied.Hanging up, Frank looked up at the waterfall overhead, and then at Skyler, who was standing beside him. "So? Is it time yet?""Almost… Now!" Skyler's eyes were glowing even as she stared at her watch."Alright."Frank looked up just as the skies abruptly darkened. "Ah, there it is—the eclipse."The sun seemed to disappear, and the world was suddenly shrouded in darknesses.And beside him, a stone door imbued with the power of the spiritron vein also rumbled as it parted."Got it!" Frank rushed inside without another word as soon as he saw it."Hmph. I'm surprised that you could reach this place." A cold, wrathful voice resounded inside even before Frank got a hold of his surroundings.Looking up, Frank found a youth in a black cossack and sporting grey-white hair, standing upon a cliff as he looked down on him.Frank chuckled. "Hehe. Like I said, I've come to kill

    Frank narrowed his eyes. "Is that so?'Crane shrugged. "I don't mind giving it to you straight—members of Torrent are actually… Ahem. A part of Torrent himself."Frank paused. "What's that supposed to mean?""You don't get it, do you?" Crane grinned. "Then let me put it to you this way—every member is a clone of Torrent.""A clone?" Frank gasped in realization."Yes," Crane nodded. "That's why I believe that challenging Crane is just suicide. You have no idea how powerful he is—only death awaits you down that path."Frank smirked. "Oh, but I don't think so."Crane rolled his eyes. "Fine, whatever—now listen closely. You will find Torrent in the Mystic Trail, but you would only find that place when the sun and moon coincide, and the entrance is beneath the waterfall south of Horton."As he finished, he snorted coldly. "I have no idea if you can actually do it, but I'm hoping you do kill him… Heh. I'm getting tired of being stuck under his control for so long."Then, waving off

    Frank abruptly turned, immediately noticing one of the Cranes crouching, ready to spring forward and blindside him."Got you!" He laughed."Hah! You fell for it!"Just as Frank swung a punch to pulverize that Crane, he suddenly burst into pus that splashed at Frank's face."Damn it!" Frank took a step back, surprised that the clone's presence was identical to the real Crane, and a trap on top of that!"Die!"The Cranes around him each whipped out a dagger, all of them stabbing at Frank at the same time."Get off!" Frank bellowed, unleashing a shockwave that sent all the Cranes flying across all directions."Frank! Above you!" Skyler suddenly shrieked."Yes! I'm right here!" A strange laughter sounded above Frank just as he wiped the pus off his face.Crane was suddenly directly above him, launching an aerial kick straight at Frank's head, and Frank had no time to dodge!"Die!" Crane's smile curled into a twisted angle as he saw that too.He was very confident with this kick

    "Disgusting…" Skyler murmured through her hand.Despite being skinned and scalped, the women were all still alive and singing to the music that was playing despite their anguish."Talk about a terrible fetish."Frank was scowling too—why were all the members of Torrent such sick deviants? It seemed like his plan to wipe them out was absolutely correct!"So, you killed my clone?"The lanky man on the couch slowly turned to level his bloodshot eyes at Frank.His lips were wet with bed as they curled upward into an eerie smile."Clone?" Frank narrowed his eyes."Hehe. It's a sage art."Crane shrugged as he stood up and wiped the blood off his lips. "It's only natural that you don't understand… Still, you deserve praise. If you can kill my clone, that means you're not just slightly stronger than Ghost."Naturally, the man was none other than the real Crane.Still, as Skyler studied him from a corner, even she could notice the strange twitch of his fingers, and his veins were pro

    Even as Crane ran, he was looking over his shoulder, his heart pounding. "No… I won't win in a one-on-one!"No, as long as I get back to my real body… we can do this together!" He frowned, having seen how Frank sliced off the pinkies of those hood rats. It hence quickly dawned on him that Frank was not just slightly stronger than Ghost, as Torrent had put it!"Almost there!" He gasped when he saw the signboard of Pegasus Showtown in the distance. "As long as I get there and rendezvous with my real body, that brat will lose—"That was when he turned and saw that a shadow had caught up with impossible speed."What?!" Crane's eyes almost popped out in bewilderment. "What speed is that?! Are you kidding—"Even as he spotted the shadow, the shadow turned into a youth with an impassive visage.His fist outstretched, he was clearly punching toward Crane's forehead!"Argh…"Even as Crane looked on, the youth's punch slowed down by tenfold, but his fist kept closing in.Then, whe

    Seeing Skyler sigh, the tattooed thug presumed that his extortion worked.He strode up, grabbing Frank's shoulder. "No one's gonna help you, boy. Pay up, or you're not leaving.""Exactly! You're not getting away!" the crowd of hood rats hollered. "Last chance."Frank's eyes were cold and fixed on Dani, however. "Are you going to intervene? If you do, you can keep that check. If you don't…""Ugh. Fuck off! I don't care!" Dani spat, her expression smug as she folded her arms before her chest. "Who do you think you are to threaten me?!""Exactly! Pay up, and you can leave!""Yeah! Ten grand, at least!""You probably don't know my boss Wyvern, but when he's here, you won't get away with just ten grand!"Even as the crowd closed in, Frank shook his head. "Well, you had your chance. Don't blame me for what happens next.""You're giving us a chance?! Hah! Who—argh!"Even before Dani could finish gloating, Frank was suddenly in front of her, grabbing her viciously by the wrist."Arg

    "Five grand?! Did you hear that?! He just threw five grand!""Must be a rich kid coming here for a secret rendezvous, out of prying eyes? Those types are the easiest mark!""Fuck! And Dani got one of us… It hurts me more than losing at the races!"Frank could hear the buzz around him but ignored it as he strode past the men flanking him and headed toward the street that stank of blood."Stop!" A big tattooed man grinned sinisterly as he intercepted Frank.As his buddies encircled Frank as well, Frank snorted—it seemed that they took his reaction for a sign of weakness and thought that he could be cowed.The tattooed man rubbed his chin as he leered at Skyler's voluptuous figure, chuckling. "Look, boy. I'm short on cash, so let me take a loan. I'll pay you back some other day, how about that?"His friend laughed. "Exactly! You just gave Dani five grand, and we won't ask for more… just four, how about that?"Skyler scowled in turn and glanced worriedly at Frank beside her—was he

    Frank himself had just stepped out of the nightclub when his eyes narrowed."Blood," he murmured, his nostrils twitching."Blood?"Skyler sniffed the air, puzzled. "I can't smell it.""It's from the opposite street… I smell the blood of over a dozen people.""A dozen?!" Skyler did a double take.He could identify the number of people who were killed?! That was just ridiculous!"Come on, let's take a look."Just as Frank led the way toward the source of the stench, a woman suddenly came up, catching Frank off guard and throwing herself into his arms."Hmmm?" He looked down to see that she had thick makeup, average looks, and a rather pudgy belly."Argh! He touched me!" she pointed at Frank and shrieked even before he realized what was happening."What?!" Skyler was staring at the woman too, mystified."Oh, sister! You just didn't see it!"The woman kept hollering, pointing at Frank's face. "Your boyfriend grabbed my ass! Is that how you teach him manners?!""Teach him ma

    Wyvern screamed even as he clutched the stump that was his hand, screaming so shrilly one might mistake his voice as inhuman."Oh, just shut up." The lanky man glowered and launched a kick, reducing Wyvern into puddles of blood and pieces of innards, splattering all around the lobby. "Argh!!!" the devilish lady screamed as she watched the carnage unfolded."Another sound, and you'd end up just like him." The lanky man turned and frowned at her impatiently."Hngh…" The devilish lady promptly clasped a hand over her mouth, tears welling up in her eyes as she trembled."What the hell?!"Outside, Wyvern's lackeys heard the screams and ran inside, looking for him. "Hey, where's Wyvern?!"However, the lobby was too dimly lit for them to notice the blood and guts scattered around the walls, and they only sensed that terrible stench."Hngh…" The devilish lady was too scared to speak, and tears trickled out of her eyes."Fuck!"One of the lackeys strode up and seized the lanky man
