Axel was stunned. He arrogantly shouted, “What the hell are you doing?”

“Are you Axel Cloverfield?”

“Yes, I am.”

“You are prohibited from entering the venue,” said the soldier.

The situation took a drastic turn.

A moment ago, he was greeted by a soldier’s salutation, but now he was being prohibited from entering.

He couldn’t wrap his head around the situation.

Embarrassed, Axel turned to Luna and said, “Hold on, Luna. I’ll deal with this.”

He then looked at the soldier and bellowed, “I know your superior. All I need to do is make a call, and you won’t be able to stay in this city anymore!”

Thud!

The soldier stuck the barrel of his gun at Axel’s forehead and said, “I said, you are prohibited from entering. Can you understand human language?”

With a gun at his forehead, Axel broke out in a cold sweat, but if he stepped back, he would be embarrassed for life, especially in front of Luna. The thought gave him enough courage to argue back. “Shoot me if you have the nerve!”

Bang!

The soldier kicked Axel to the ground and fired a shot in between his crotch.

“Aaaah!” Axel was scared witless.

After that, the soldier saluted Luna, her father, and her grandfather. “Master Crestfall, Mr. Crestfall, Ms. Crestfall, please enter. You are our VIP guests for the night.”

“This way, please.”

The soldiers on both sides of the red carpet saluted en masse.

The crowd finally understood that the salutation was not for Axel but for the Crestfalls!

With that, Luna, her father, and her grandfather entered White Swan Estate. They felt it was surreal; none of them could believe what just happened.

“W-what happened?” Luna looked around but was stumped.

Harry and Master Crestfall were both just as confused.

Harry said, “Forget it, we must meet Mayor Freely first.”

“There are a lot of VIP guests here. I hope we can meet him,” Master Crestfall said.

Even though Master Crestfall was a well-known businessman, there was still a wide gap between him and the mayor.

Then, Luna received a text on her phone. She got excited after checking the text. “Grandfather, Dad, the local government office has given us the Valiant Institute project! I just received the statement and agreement!”

“What?”

Harry and Master Crestfall were both stunned before excitement took over. They finally got the project that they had been fighting for all along.

A piece of exciting news indeed.

After some deliberate thoughts, Luna said, “Grandfather, Dad, I think someone is helping us. This mysterious person must also be responsible for what happened just now!”

“I believe so.”

Master Crestfall took a deep breath and said, “This person is our family’s savior! We must find out who he is!”

With that thought in mind, Master Crestfall contacted the person in charge and asked him for more details.

The person in charge sighed and said, “Master Crestfall, you are really lucky to have this person as your benefactor.”

“How so?” Master Crestfall asked curiously.

“Your benefactor is also Mayor Freely’s benefactor. Because of him, Mayor Freely decided to give you the Valiant Institute project.”

Master Crestfall was over the moon after learning the details.

Harry added, “Can you please introduce us to him? We would like to meet him face-to-face and thank him ourselves.

“I’m sorry. I don’t know who this person is either, but Mayor Freely is going to invite him up on stage later. You will know who he is then.”

“Thank you very much.”

The three of them chatted with the person in charge before they went to their seats and waited for the event to start.

At the same time in a VIP room within the White Swan Estate, Marcus brought Andrius a cup of tea. He bowed and asked, “Wolf King, I have a question.”

“What is it?” Andrius sipped on his tea.

“You command a million Lycantroops to fight off enemies of the country, and you hold absolute power that no one can imagine, yet you are here being matchmade with Luna Crestfall. Why?” Marcus’s voice grew softer as he continued, “And I’ve checked with the local court that your registration with her is fake.”

“My old man is in debt to Master Crestfall, so he requested me to marry Luna to repay the favor,” Andrius said as he facepalmed himself, looking helpless.

“I see!” Marcus finally understood what brought Andrius to Sumeria. No wonder he would come all the way here just to marry a woman.

Some thoughts later, Marcus added, “Wolf King, I have another request that I would like you to fulfill.”

“Go ahead.”

“The event is starting soon, and I would like to introduce you on stage…”

“I…” Andrius wanted to reject, but when he met Marcus’ anticipating gaze, he nodded helplessly. “Fine.”

“Thank you, sir! I’ll make the necessary arrangements!”

Marcus sent several orders to his men before going out of the room to get prepared.

The event finally started. The venue’s lights dimmed down, allowing the only spotlight to highlight the stage.

Marcus strode to the center of the stage and was welcomed by thunderous applause.

He waved at the crowd to silence them. He then said into the microphone, “Thank you, everyone, for attending my 50th birthday party. Please enjoy yourselves and have fun!

“I would also like to take this chance to introduce someone important to me: my benefactor, to be exact. Without him, I wouldn’t be able to stand here today as mayor of the city. Let us welcome him with a round of applause!”

All the spotlights shone on the left wing of the stage.

Thunderous applause followed.

A young man came into everyone’s sight as he stepped on the red carpet that symbolized power and wealth.

All the young ladies screamed in excitement when they saw the man.

“Oh my gosh! He’s so young!”

“He’s Mayor Freely’s benefactor? I’m sure he’s someone important as well!”

“Look at his outfit. It’s simple and plain. I bet he’s wealthy but humble. He doesn’t like to show off his status and wealth!”

“If I could marry him, I would be happy for the rest of my life!”

Luna was also intrigued when she heard the other girls talking about the young man.

As she concentrated on the young man walking to the center of the stage, Luna clenched her fists and muttered to herself, “That’s what my man should be! A respected and powerful person, not a poor guy from the countryside!”

The young man stood beside Mayor Freely and showed his face to the crowd.

When the Crestfalls got a clear look at his face, they were stunned beyond words.

Luna, Harry, and Master Crestfall were dumbstruck.

How?

Mayor Freely’s benefactor was actually Andrius!?

    Seeing Andrius beside Mayor Freely, Luna drew a blank in surprise. A moment ago, she wished for her man to be a respected figure and not someone as poor as Andrius. Now, the respected man on stage turned out to be the man whom she looked down upon! Master Crestfall was stunned when he saw Andrius on stage. Harry reacted the same. His lips twitched helplessly as his heart skipped a beat. “How? Why is it him? He’s just a poor guy from the countryside. How did he end up as Mayor Freely’s benefactor? Have I underestimated him?” …Everyone fixed their eyes on Andrius on stage, trying to keep his face in mind. If he could be the mayor’s benefactor at such a young age, he must be a capable man. If they could win his attention, it would definitely benefit their families. Andrius felt uncomfortable having that many eyes on himself. Countless nobles and royalties tried to invite the Wolf King to their events or parties. Once, there was an oil dealer from Saudi Algoria who offe

    The dark figure was none other than Noir. It had only been half a minute since his emergence to the men passing out cold. “Noir, run checks on this Dragon Gang.” “Yes, sir.” Noir blended into the shadows and disappeared swiftly. Andrius darted a glance at the unconscious men on the ground before he headed out of the village. As soon as he stepped out of the alleyway, he heard sirens. Three police cruisers came in and stopped in the center of the urban village. A female officer came out of one of the police cruisers. She had a small face but a valiant expression. Her ponytail brought out her clean and strict demeanor. However, she wore a frosty look all the time. “Freeze!” The female officer pulled and pointed her gun at Andrius. She then said to her colleagues, “Go in and have a look.” The other officers dashed into the alleyway and then came back with heavy expressions. “Madam, there are a few unconscious and injured men inside.” “Call an ambulance.” “The rest,

    However, Marcus decided not to reveal Andrius’ true identity. The reason was simple. His daughter, Noelle, had come back from abroad, and her looks rivaled Luna’s. Three to four months later when Luna officially announced her divorce, Marcus would seize the chance to introduce his daughter to Andrius. The Wolf King was busy defending the Western Frontline, so there were only so many women around him. Marcus believed his plan had a high chance of success. Moreover, his daughter always admired a strong and rigid soldier, so the Wolf King would be the perfect man for her. With that in mind, Marcus simply came up with an excuse. “When I was serving at Western Frontline, I got shot and hid in the mountains. It was Andy who saved me.” “I see.” Luna nodded. She added, “So, you gave us the project because you want to thank Andrius?” “Not entirely true.” Marcus reached into his pocket and revealed a medal in his hand. “I gave you the project because of this. Andy gave me a v

    Then, another female officer came in. “Noelle, the injury report is here.” The woman named Noelle took the report. Andrius noticed the calluses on her hand. They were proof that she was skilled with a gun. Noelle then slammed the report on the table. She wore a strict look on her delicate face and asked, “What’s with that smile on your face?” “What? Smile? I’m not smiling.” Andrius shook his head. “Hmph! Andrius Moonshade?” “Yes?” “You are hereby suspected of starting a gang fight, injuring eight men in the skull, causing internal bleeding and severance of their veins. You will be charged for your crime.” “Madam, I just stood there and did nothing,” Andrius explained with a sincere look. Noelle pressed her hands on the table. Her huge breasts lowered and heaved strongly. “You are saying that you simply stood there and these eight men injured themselves?” “It is what it is.” Andrius nodded. Bang! Noelle slammed the table once more. “This is your last chance to co

    Noelle looked back and saw Marcus. She asked coldly, “What are you doing here?” “If I weren't here, were you going to use that on him?” Marcus’ heart pounded wildly. If he was half a second late, things would have gone terribly. Aside from the fact that he could never arrange for his daughter to meet the Wolf King, torturing the Wolf King alone would put his daughter in a dangerous position as the million Lycantroops would certainly retaliate. The thought fueled his nervousness. His forehead was glistening with sweat and his expensive shirt was drenched. “Why are you two standing there? Release him!” Marcus shouted at the other two officers in the room. “Release him?” Noelle glared at Marcus and grumbled. “He is a suspect in a gang fight. Eight men have been injured…” “Nonsense!” Marcus stopped her right away. “He is someone with a special identity. He did not do whatever you claimed he did, so release him immediately!” “Special identity?” Noelle scoffed. “Tell me, how

    Early the next morning, when Andrius woke up, Luna had already gone out. He then went out to buy breakfast and headed to the New Moon Corporation office. When he arrived at the CEO’s office, he grabbed a spotless cloth and started cleaning. Luna somehow made him her personal janitor of her office. After cleaning, Andrius sat on the couch and started scrolling through military news. Bang! All of a sudden, the door flew open. Luna stormed in furiously. Her expression spelled anger. Her secretary, Danni, followed in with a cup of Americano. The expensive Americano could help to burn body fat, which was why Luna would have several cups in a single day. Slam! Luna flung the coffee off her table and snapped, “Out! Everybody out!” Andrius frowned as he walked out of the office. “What’s wrong with her?” Danni sighed and said with a bitter expression, “Ms. Crestfall had a meeting with the board and suggested changes to the Valiant Institute project, but the board membe

    The board members erupted in laughter. Everyone looked at Andrius like he was an idiot. Donovan was the second largest shareholder of the company. He was not the most powerful person in Sumeria, and there were indeed people who could take his place away from the city, but it was definitely not a mere assistant. “Shhh…” Andrius gestured to silence the laughing group. He then dialed a number on his phone. “The second largest shareholder of New Moon Corporation, Donovan Seaview… I want him out of the city for good.” “F*ck.” Donovan felt challenged. Even though Andrius was nothing but a clown to him, being disrespected by a mere assistant in front of other board members fueled his anger. He glared at Andrius and said with gritted teeth, “Boy, if you can’t make your claims come true today, I will make sure you crawl out of this place…” Ring! Before Donovan could finish, his phone rang. He answered it and heard an anxious voice from the other end. “Mr. Seaview, this is ba

    “Such as smuggling from the local customs! If this got out, what do you think will happen?” Donovan jumped to his feet with a start. He pointed at Andrius with his shaking hand and cried, “W-who the hell are you?” It took Andrius one call to expose all of Donovan’s dirty dealings and secrets. No John Doe could have such capabilities to force a man to such desperation. If all the dirty secrets got out, Donovan would have to spend the rest of his life behind bars. Andrius smiled innocently at the nervous Donovan. “Mr. Seaview, I told you. I’m just an assistant in the CEO’s office, and I am here to threaten you people.” With that, Donovan’s phone continued to ring. The ringtone fueled his anxiety. He finally realized the ‘assistant’ was not joking! If he refused to cooperate, he would really lose his place in the city. The thought made his legs weak. He fell on the floor and started to beg, “Okay, okay! I’ll listen to whatever you say! Please stop this!” “I can, but you kn

    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!
