Noir was obviously very excited at Andrius’ call. “Andy, the Lycan Manor is growing very rapidly now. New soldiers are breaking through to the martial realm every day.“The youngest among them is only nineteen but has already met the standards to join the Lycan Manor. He’s the youngest martial realm expert.“Another one managed to go from Great Grandmaster to late-stage Martial Lord in just eight days and is now heading toward the Martial King realm. His cultivation speed can be said to be the fastest.“In total, there are already four late-stage, nine mid-stage, and more than thirty early-stage Martial Lords in the Lycan Manor.“Furthermore, some well-known late-stage Martial Lords have joined the Lycan Manor after being attracted by your reputation.“However, many of them were still in seclusion when we went to Kiyoto this time, so I only brought a part of them.”Andrius was slightly surprised at Noir’s report.However, after some time, he understood. Many exceptionally talent
Andrius had nothing to say to that. The excuses he used before did not seem to hold much weight anymore now that Luna had the strength to protect herself.“Okay,” Andrius reluctantly agreed. “When the time comes, you just have to wait for my signal.”Luna smiled in satisfaction. “That’s more like it...”Andrius smiled and looked up at the stars above, saying, “It’s getting late. We should sleep early.”“Alright.”Their slumber was peaceful.Andrius waited until Luna fell asleep before cultivating on the balcony.The next day, he was still immersed in cultivation.“Andy!”Noir arrived with a group of people.“Phew...”Andrius let out a long breath and slowly opened his eyes. He felt relieved when he saw so many experts from the Lycan Manor.“Noir, you’re just in time. During my absence, make sure to keep an eye on Sumeria. Stay alert and don’t give the enemy any opportunities.”Noir and the group agreed. “Yes, sir!”“Also...” Andrius glanced at Luna, who had arrived after
After all, the Wolf King’s reputation was well-known. Once he appeared in Bardan, it would undoubtedly draw widespread attention and ruin any element of secrecy.Outside the royal palace, Andrius submitted a letter of request he had written as a special envoy from Florence to seek a secret audience.The palace guard glanced at Andrius’ letter and returned it. “Sorry, you cannot enter the palace to meet the king.”Andrius was slightly stunned and asked, “Why?”“Princess Yule is seriously ill. His Majesty is gathering renowned physicians from all over and is unavailable to meet you. At the earliest, you can enter the palace in seven days to meet His Majesty.”Seven days...That would be too late!Andrius hurriedly said, “To be honest, I have some medical knowledge and can handle various complex diseases. I can treat Princess Yule.”The guard glanced at him and had disbelief written all over his face.Due to Andrius’ identity as a special envoy from Florence, the guard remained p
“Tsk!”“A doctor from Florence is trying to come here for a free meal.”“Everyone knows that Florencian medicine practitioners become better as they get older. This boy only looks like he’s in his twenties. He’s really bold to come here and show off!”“If examining a pulse can accurately determine the gender of the fetus, what’s the point of developing medicine over so many years?”“Hehe...”The nearby doctors began mocking Andrius.Even the pregnant woman in front of him seemed skeptical. Although she hoped for a boy, Andrius did not seem trustworthy at all.“Silence.” Sergius snorted coldly and signaled the official physicians to verify Andrius’ answer.A few minutes later, the physician said to Sergius, “Sir, it’s a boy.”“Good.” Sergius nodded and was just about to announce that Andrius had passed the initial test.Just then, those who had ridiculed Andrius were dissatisfied and started to protest loudly.“Sir, your conclusion is too arbitrary and irresponsible.”“There
“I hereby announce that you have passed the preliminary test.”Everyone was left speechless. Some blushed so red it was as if their faces had just been slapped. They were extremely embarrassed.“Now, the second round will begin.” Sergius announced, “In this round, each of you will be assigned a patient with a complex condition. You will need to use silver needles to treat them.“Remember, you only have one hour. If you haven’t cured the patient within an hour, you’ll be eliminated.”Silver needles!That naturally referred to acupuncture.King Laurent of Bardan was a fan of the Wolf King and developed an interest in acupuncture especially after Andrius successfully treated the queen. As a result, even local doctors in Bardan were trained in this technique.After a while, the patients were matched with the doctors through a random selection process.Andrius’ acupuncture skills were top-notch. In less than ten minutes, his assigned patient was completely cured and left the hospita
Andrius merely smiled.Sergius consulted the doctors from the Royal Hospital to discuss the feasibility of this challenge and finally agreed.“Since both parties are willing, we’ll proceed with the rules you suggested. However, I hope both of you will maintain a sense of honor and not let things get out of hand,” Sergius gave a solemn reminder to both participants before the match began.Jared said, “Rest assured, Director. I’ll hold back during the critical moment.”Then, he and Andrius entered a room specially cleared for the competition.Many doctors chose to stay and watch. They wanted to see Andrius being defeated by a local doctor.“Watch closely, boy.” Jared took out a silver needle which was curved slightly, and said mysteriously, “This needle is called the ‘hunter’s needle’. It’s made using mystical metal, and there’s a total of thirty-six of them.“Over the decade, I’ve used these needles to save people and root out evil. These needles do not break or bend. Be careful!
“Please follow me. I’ll take you to meet the princess,” Sergius spoke to Andrius.Andrius calmly left the competition venue.The other doctors immediately made way for him. Their faces were completely red.In the royal palace, Andrius arrived outside Anna’s chambers under Sergius’ guidance.“Your Highness, today’s winning physician is from Florence, Dr. Providence,” Sergius reported respectfully.“Come in.”A familiar voice commanded from inside. It was none other than Princess Yule, Anna Faulker. However, she did not sound like she was suffering from any illness.“Please go in.” Sergius gestured for Andrius to enter.Andrius nodded and entered calmly.Anna’s complexion appeared as usual. She did not look sick at all.Throughout this trip, Andrius had been wearing a mask since he boarded the plane, so Anna did not recognize him.“Your Highness.” Andrius adjusted his vocal cords and asked, “Where are you feeling uncomfortable?”“I...” Anna’s beautiful eyes fixed on Andrius,
“Your Highness, everyone makes mistakes. Even the Wolf King, if not vigilant at times, might fall victim to a situation that could temporarily affect his bodily functions. Not conceiving is normal.”Although Andrius explained it very clearly, Anna was still skeptical. “How are you so sure? What if...”“There’s no ‘if’.”Since she still did not believe him, he stopped changing his voice and pulled down his mask.When Anna saw the face she had been longing for, a myriad of emotions flashed in her beautiful eyes. She went from being shocked, to happy, and then to bashful. Blushing petals bloomed on her cheeks, making her look incredibly enchanting.“W-Wolf King...” Anna stammered shyly, not daring to look at him. “Y-you mustn’t jump to conclusions. I... I did this for my own health, s-so...”Andrius was speechless.There was no need for him to jump to conclusions when she had already confessed to everything.There was nothing Andrius could do in situations like these. He was too e
Noir immediately checked the life token.It was unbroken!This meant that Andrius was still alive, and he must have ascended to the Divine Realm.Noir was relieved.Remembering his responsibility to protect Luna, he exchanged a glance with Halle, Kate, and the others before quietly leaving.Not long after, a group arrived at the Immortal Demon Palace and began their cultivation, striving to ascend to the Divine Realm as soon as possible.In an ancient and desolate location, there were grand halls, statues of fierce beasts that still seemed lifelike despite the passage of time, sky-piercing pillars, and a sea of clouds...Everything looked majestic and awe-inspiring.However, it was eerily silent, like a dead land devoid of life.Until...Whoosh!A ray of light suddenly shot from the distance, moving at an unimaginable speed and entering the soul control orb at the center of the great hall.Then, a soul apparition started to form.It was none other than Andrius.He looked
Andrius’ condition was pretty bad.He thought that with his current realm and strength, he could handle the divine tribulation and successfully ascend to the Divine Realm.However, the strength of the divine tribulation far exceeded his expectations.He seemed to have easily dealt with the first strike.In reality, the moment the divine lightning struck his palm, the destructive force within it surged through his meridians and directly attacked his soul.As expected of the divine tribulation.So, Andrius did not dare to be careless anymore and immediately gathered his immortal essence to resist.However, that was just the beginning.Each divine bolt was stronger than the last, and their deafening sounds and unstoppable destructive power left Andrius in agony.The tribulation cloud showed no signs of dissipating, too. Instead, it grew even darker and heavier, pressing down on everyone until they could not breathe.Rumble—Crackle—The thunder rumbled relentlessly, and the li
If his true form was destroyed and his soul dispersed, the life token would shatter.That would be how Noir and the others would know about his situation.For the rest of his time, since short-term improvements were difficult at his level, he did not cultivate. However, Andrius meditated every day to calm his mind and clear his thoughts.Soon, three months passed.Sensing the increasingly intense presence of the tribulation, Andrius did not hide anymore and removed the effect of the Primordial Unity Pearl that was concealing his aura.Whoosh...An immense power surged forth, and massive tribulation clouds soon formed in the sky.At that moment, Andrius sat on top of a desolate mountain.A large crowd had gathered in the distance.It had been many years since anyone in the Immortal Realm had attempted the divine tribulation. Furthermore, Andrius had deliberately invited many people to witness the event to broaden the influence of the Lunarius Alliance.“Hiss... As expected of
Andrius chuckled. “It’s not that serious. I already have a plan.”“Tell me, Andy.”“I have an extraordinary treasure. The treasure itself contains its own independent space filled with countless treasures and living beings. Furthermore, the spiritual energy inside is ten, a hundred times richer than the outside world. I plan to entrust this treasure to you. Carve out a secluded area within it for Luna to recover.”Andrius slowly explained.The extraordinary treasure he spoke of was none other than the Immortal Demon Palace.With his current strength, crossing the divine tribulation would not be a problem.The Immortal Demon Palace was an independent realm constructed by the beings of the Divine Realm. Even figures like Cedric, the Blood Demon King, the Hidden Monarch, and the others had no choice but to follow its rules.Hiding Luna inside would ensure her safety.Of course, there was a small problem. If Andrius perished in the Divine Realm, as the owner of the Immortal Demon P
It was as if the dragon soul had always been part of his body.“How strange...”Andrius muttered to himself and continued to observe.Nothing happened.The dragon soul quickly integrated into his own without any further events.It only gave Andrius a vague sense of completeness, like something had filled a gap within him.It was a mysterious and eerie feeling.Swoosh...After the dragon soul left, the massive dragon bones collapsed, turning into a pile of white ash on the ground.It was clear that the dragon bones were preserved until now solely because of the dragon soul’s presence.“Forget it.”Seeing that the matter was settled, Andrius did not dwell on it.After glancing around and finding nothing unusual, he steadied himself, walked outside, and began thinking about his next move.“Andy!”“Wolf King!”“Andrius!”As soon as they saw Andrius, Noir, Halle, Kate, and the others rushed to him.While Andrius was absorbing the dragon soul, Noir had filled them in on the
Whoosh...Just as Andrius sent a wisp of his divine sense to investigate, an apparition suddenly emerged from the dragon bones.It was vague and ethereal, yet exuded a powerful aura.Gradually, it took the shape of a dragon.Andrius raised his brows. He was not surprised, though, let alone afraid.He looked at the dragon apparition, who looked back at him.Soon, the dragon apparition spoke in confusion, “Young man, I smell an extraordinary aura on you.”Smell...Many thoughts flashed through Andrius’ mind.What could a dragon find extraordinary? Perhaps it was the scent of the Divine Realm or the Void Thunder Dragon. Could it be the Divine Realm phoenix?The next second, the dragon asked, “Are you a descendant of the phoenix?”Andrius casually raised his hand, and a wisp of flame appeared at his fingertips. It was the phoenix’s true flame.“I knew it!”The dragon apparition trembled slightly.Then, its enormous eyes showed a trace of sorrow.Andrius frowned, sensing some
The remaining power of Andrius’ punch slammed into the man’s head viciously, like a hammer smashing a watermelon, splattering everywhere.“Hiss—”The captured cultivators could not help but gasp.Wow.Who was this guy? He was able to kill a mid-stage Aureate Immortal in just a single punch. Was he even human?Even Halle, Kate, and the others were dumbfounded.It had not been long since they last saw him, but he had already grown to be this powerful. It was completely unbelievable.The members of Dragon Immortal Sect were shocked and terrified.He was too strong!Even the sect leader was killed in one punch. They would be serving themselves up on a silver platter.At that moment, everyone kneeled.“Please have mercy!”“Please spare us.”It was the sect leader who ordered us to do this...”They groveled repeatedly, banging their heads until they bled. Though they did not dare stop.What was begging as long as they could live?However, Andrius’ words threw them into despai
“Andrius!”“Wolf King!”The group was instantly overjoyed when they saw Andrius.They soon snapped back to their senses, though. This was the heart of Dragon Immortal Sect, and they were in the middle of a sacrificial ceremony.“Run!”“Andrius, leave now. Don’t worry about us!”“That’s right. Just avenge us later!”They knew Andrius was strong, but they did not know how strong.After all, Dragon Immortal Sect was a powerful sect, and the sect leader and Grand Elder were all gathered in the hall.No matter how powerful Andrius was, he could not face off against so many opponents.Andrius could not help but laugh.However, before he could explain, Noir said solemnly, “Don’t worry. With Andy’s current strength, wiping them out will be as easy as slaughtering chickens.”Halle, Kate, and the others were stunned.Noir was extremely confident. Could Andrius have really become a great power in the Immortal Realm?While they were still in doubt...“It’s him!”The disciples immed
“It’s not a shame. As long as we awaken the true dragon’s soul, we can get any woman we want in the future.”“But it’s hard to find one that’s as beautiful and graceful...”The disciples drooled and spoke lewdly, but their actions were swift. They quickly restrained Halle and the others.Of course, they were not the only sacrifices.There were many other cultivators, even some powerful fiends and Demon Kings.“Let’s start!”In the center of the altar, Bernard saw that everyone was in place and gave the order.“Understood!”Everyone started to move.The disciples restrained Halle and the others firmly.The 108 core and elite disciples began channeling immortal essence, feeding it into Bernard’s body.In an instant, Bernard grew into a towering figure like a giant.It was one of his techniques.As he continuously chanted, the dragon bones in the center of the altar trembled slightly.It was clear he was trying to awaken the dragon.“No, I don’t want to die.”“You beasts!
