Carson’s expression changed. Marcus had come in an untimely manner, and Carson had felt that something was not right. He wore a straight face and went out to welcome Marcus. “Mayor Freely, what brings you here?” “I have received a report that the Millers have illicitly sabotaged the Sumerian market recently. You have forcefully acquired more than two billion worth of assets in the city.” Marcus started at Carson coldly and listed down the crimes that he had committed. Then, he pulled out an enforcement order. “I hereby represent the city council of Sumeria to enforce an order on the Sumerian branch of the Miller Group based on the laws you have broken: coercion on trading and misappropriation of properties and assets. “First, all of the assets belonging to the Sumerian branch of the Miller Group are confiscated by the city council. “Second, the current Sumerian branch of the Miller Group has an estimated value of two billion, so a fine of double the value, which is fo
The group was trying to come up with a solution. “I think it’s workable.” Zane’s eyes glinted confidently and said, “We were once the pillars of Riverfront Entertainment. We were the company’s faces for a while. “The soldiers that Luna found for the movie are, at most, extras. There’s no way Riverfront Entertainment would focus on military genre movies. They have to expand into rom-coms and stuff, which is our forte!” Everyone was enlightened by Zane’s words. To them, the soldiers who acted in the movie were not professional actors. They might succeed in military movies but what about the other genres? These people were trained actors. “What are we waiting for? Let’s go to Luna!” “Yeah. Right now!” “Come on!” With that, the group headed to New Moon Corporation. Meanwhile, at New Moon Corporation, Luna was elated that the movie was a hit. The first movie that Riverfront Entertainment released after the change of ownership was a sell-out! It was a good sign! As
Luna toyed with them like monkeys! The bunch of celebrities were furious. Zane glared at her grimly and said viciously, “Luna Crestfall, how dare you fool with us? You really think we are useless?” “Luna Crestfall! We came back to help you push Riverfront Entertainment to new heights, and you are doing this to us? How short-sighted are you?” “Luna Crestfall, I’ll wreck your meeting room now!” “Luna Crestfall…” The angry celebrities were ready to start a scene at the office. Luna did not tolerate their lousy temper. She glanced at them coldly before she said to the security, “Security, stop them from causing trouble!” Following her words, the head of security led his team into the meeting room and asked eagerly, “Madam, what should we do about them?” “They are trying to cause a scene here at the office. Teach them a lesson and toss them out,” Luna said as she pointed at Zane and the others. The head of security grinned. It was time for revenge! The security guard
The soldiers were the kindest people. They were neither calculative nor competitive against each other. While they were not related by blood, they were closer than brothers. They would always share with their brothers-in-arms, especially those who sacrificed on the battlefield. “Great.” Noir took the card with a serious look. “I will convey your message to the Martyr’s Society. Don’t worry about it.” The soldiers nodded. “Wolf King, Captain Noir, we will be on our way now.” After that, the soldiers got into their car and left, Andrius was left alone with Noir. Since the Martyr’s Society was mentioned, Andrius asked, “Noir, how’s the Martyr’s Society doing now? Are they progressing smoothly?” “Yeah. Everything is running smoothly,” Noir said. “After Anthony Henderson’s money was transferred to their account, the society took good care of every deceased soldier’s family. Besides, now that the society has some extra cash, they did some investments and got quite a handsome retu
Why were they together? How? Impossible! How did they get together? Luna shook her head, discarding the outrageous thoughts from her mind. She clearly remembered Halle’s disgust when she saw Andrius. It left a strong impression on her. Why would Halle be seeing Andrius? She must be seeing things. There were many people with striking resemblances in the world, and there were Lamborghinis everywhere. Without further thought, Luna got into her own car. Meanwhile, inside the Lamborghini, Halle, who was in a delighted mood, asked, “Andrius, I haven’t thought of a place to eat. Do you have any places that you want to go to?” She actually wanted to follow Andrius’ suggestion but wanted to make it subtle. “I…” Andrius glanced into the darkening sky and spotted a night market. He said, “I think the barbecue here’s good.” “Here? Fine.” Halle stopped her car by the road. It was rare to see a supercar beside the night market, so it attracted much attention, especially when
Andrius got himself a piece as well and enjoyed it. He even said, “Don’t worry, just eat it. Believe me when I say you will love it.” Out of trust, Halle reluctantly had a bite. “How is it?” Andrius asked. “Uh…” Maybe Halle was in a good mood or maybe she was starving, but the grilled innard was quite tasty! “It’s not bad!” “I told you.” They chatted over dinner, and it was quite an enjoyable time. Then, Halle brought up the topic with Luna and asked, “Andrius, what are your plans after you divorce Luna?” She stopped eating and stared at his face. “We’ll see.” Andrius pondered and then added, “I’ve been protecting the Crestfalls for a while now, and I’ve planned a lot for them. Now, they are finally doing okay. However, the Crestfalls from the capital is a timebomb. I guess after I deal with them, I’ll leave.” “Are you really leaving?” Halle did not want him to leave. It was not easy for her to meet someone that captured her heart, yet before she could lay her h
Andrius had it with Halle, so he answered, “Alright, I’ll be right back!” He shoved the last piece of innards into his mouth and signaled Halle as he pointed at his phone before he left in a hurry. Disappointed, Halle watched Andrius leave. What a good man! It was difficult to find another man like him, yet Luna wanted to divorce him. If her friend did not know how to cherish a good man, she ought to do it for the latter. “Andrius, come to me! I will cling on to you for my life until I make you mine!” …Meanwhile, in the capital, Idris received a reply from Heaven’s Eye. Andrius was just a man from the western mountains. He had no military background or anything of the like. It was normal that the organization could not find anything about Andrius because his identity as the Wolf King was classified as a military secret. Other than those who knew him and served with him in the military, it was highly unlikely the outside world would know about his true identity. Ev
The next morning, a group of uninvited guests broke the peace at the Crestfalls’ estate. Their angry voices echoed across the air and disrupted the harmony. “Belarus Crestfall, get out here!” It was Idris and his men. Belarus saw Idris standing in his line of sight, looking angry. When he saw the men behind Idris, his expression shifted. “What are you doing?!” Idris scoffed. “I am here to deliver good news.” Good news? Anyone with a sane mind knew that Idris would never deliver any good news to Belarus. It certainly would be the worst of the worst of news. Belarus frowned and asked, “What are you talking about?” “I am talking about…” A vicious glint flashed in his narrowed eyes. “You killed my men, Withered Valentine, and now, his brothers are here to hold a funeral for him! All the dignitaries of the city are invited, including you and your family.” Gasp! Everyone in the Crestfalls gasped when they heard the news. The brothers of Withered Valentine were notorious
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!
