In a large conference room in New Moon Corporation, Simon-Tooke’s departure from Florence alarmed Luna, and she immediately called a meeting for all the shareholders. She felt that this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.“So...” Luna’s beautiful eyes looked over the shareholders, and she said confidently, “As long as we seize this opportunity, we’ll definitely be able to make achievements in the pharmaceutical manufacturing industry.“At that time, we don’t have to worry about New Moon Corporation growing bigger and stronger.”However, not everyone unanimously agreed with Luna’s viewpoint.“The pharmaceutical manufacturing industry is vast. If New Moon Corporation ventures into it without any foundation at all, I’m afraid there’s a risk of us losing everything we invest in.”“I agree.”“If you want to venture into pharmaceutical manufacturing, how much money do you have to invest in just the early stage of development? If the development fails, all that money will go to waste.
All kinds of comments flooded the comment sections. “Now that you’ve mentioned it, it really seems so.” “The Hanshus, the Hendersons, the Crestfalls, the Millers, Simon-Tooke, it happened to all of them.” “I realized it as well.” “It feels like the families and the companies are lining up to give New Moon Corporation money, eagerly and strangely.” At first, the comments mostly sparked suspicion, but then as they slowly piled up, the comments started to turn harsh and targeting. “I have a bold thought.” “Everyone should know that the CEO of New Moon Corporation, Luna Crestfall, is a well-known beauty, right? Maybe…” “The boss behind Celestial Enterprise must be into her. That’s why…” “You’re right!” “I agree!” Luna’s expression turned bitter after she went through the comments. Quite the opposite, she was not angry at the comments. It gave her a hint of the possibility of what this might become. She blushed and started to feel hot. She and Andrius were just p
Andrius? Luna frowned. Her heart was leaning towards the secret boss of Celestial Enterprise, so when she was forced to look at Andrius again, she found nothing but dissatisfaction. He was boastful, incompetent, lazy, and had no ambitions. She never knew what her grandfather saw in Andrius. “Fine.” Luna did not want to waste any more time on Andrius. She shook her head to discard him out of her mind and agreed to bring him along. “Andrius…” Harry was not in a good mood when he mentioned Andrius either. “That guy is rude, conceited, and full of himself. You’d better warn him not to cause any trouble before we leave.” “I will.” Luna nodded in agreement. Then, Harry left the office. Luna called Andrius. “What are you doing?” “I’m… drinking with a friend.” Drinking again? Luna realized the guy seemed to be drinking most of the time when she called him. She wanted to scold him, but since they were just playing pretend, there was no point for her to be angry. Sh
“I’ll be there right away!” Andrius lost the mood to continue drinking. Noir bolted up as well. He grabbed the keys to a supercar and drove Andrius to Celestial Enterprise. Meanwhile, inside Sonia’s office, Norman paced around anxiously, looking worried. He looked older and more tired than before. Something must be bothering his mind. Beside him was another old woman who looked similarly tired. She was his wife, Mary Houser. “S-Sir!” As soon as Andrius walked in, the elderly couple knelt down immediately before him. “Sir, please help us! Save our granddaughter!” “Save Snow! We can forfeit the million-dollar compensation, but please save her!” Andrius gripped their arms immediately. “Mr. Houser, what happened? Calm down, and talk me through it. I’ll definitely help.” Worried, Norman looked at Andrius and said, “Our granddaughter, Snow, has just completed her Master's Degree and got a job, but…“The assistant manager of the company is a monster! He’s almost 50, but he se
The three of them arrived at the floor where Assistant Manager Lucci's office was located at Evergreen Inc. “Snow Houser?” The security guard held her back and stared at Andrius and Noir with a hostile gaze. “Why are you here with these two? Who are they?” “We are here to see Assistant Manager Lucci,” Andrius said. “Who are you? Do you think you can see Assistant Manager Lucci whenever you want?” The security guard disdainfully retorted at him before he looked at Snow with a wicked grin. “Snow, if you don’t agree to Assistant Manager Lucci’s terms, then don’t even think about seeing him!” He then pointed at Andrius and Noir, “And you two! Get the hell out of here! Stop…” Whack! Before he finished, Noir slapped him in the face, sending him flying and twirling in the air. White and red spewed out from his mouth as Noir knocked half of his teeth out with that slap. That was not the end of it though. When the security guard landed, Noir strode up to him and stepped on h
However, Hank refused to surrender after suffering a beating from Andrius. He grunted and said coldly, “Punk, you’re good with your fists, but it’s useless! Here in the cruel harsh society, influence, and status are all I need to destroy you! I am with Master Knight, Sean Knight! You either kill me with your fists here, or Master Knight will destroy you!” Master Knight? Sean Knight? The guy who had chased Sonia a while back? Andrius scoffed, “Your Master Knight is like a dog in front of me, and you are a dog’s dog. What gives you the courage to bark so loudly? I’ll give you the chance to call him here. We’ll see if he dares to speak to me in that manner.” Hank was indeed Sean’s dog, but it could only be said by Sean himself! Hank was furious when Andrius called him Sean’s dog. He called Sean immediately. “Master Knight! Hank Lucci calling! I’m in my office here in Evergreen Inc., and there are two little pieces of sh*t that just beat me up! I said I’m with you, but they i
Sean was prepared to lash out at the John Doe who disrespected him on his own turf. He prepared a lesson that the person would never forget. However, before he even opened his mouth, a familiar figure entered his sight. The figure felt so familiar, so grand and magnificent. It was Andrius, the Wolf King! Sean was shocked as if a bolt of lightning had struck him. His legs shuddered ceaselessly, and chills spread across his body, reaching his crown from his bottom. In less than half a second’s time, his forehead was covered in sweat. He came here to teach… the Wolf King a lesson?! Suicidal! It was suicidal! Sean swallowed multiple times, attempting to suppress the fear in his heart but it was useless. His heart pounded wildly, so wild that it almost burst out of his chest. “Master Knight! It’s him!” Hank was delighted when he saw his supporter at the door. He did not even care about the unusual look on Sean’s face. He then glared at Andrius viciously and bellowed, “
“Enough,” Andrius said, stopping Sean. Sean zipped his mouth immediately. His heart remained pounding as he drowned in anxiety. He knew the Wolf King was about to judge him. “I can spare you.” Andrius’ first sentence lifted a mountain from Sean’s shoulder. The Knights could be saved! However, what Andrius said next pushed Sean back into the abyss again. “But…” Andrius stared at Sean emotionlessly and said, “Ms. Houser here is the daughter of a deceased soldier, and your subordinate treated her poorly. Which means you disrespected the soldiers of Florence and challenged their dignity.” His words fueled Sean’s anxiety. Sean dared not make a noise. He lowered his head as he listened to Andrius' judgment, so low that he could bury his face in his crotch. He waited anxiously for the sentence. “Donate half of the Knights’ assets to the Martyrs’ Society as compensation, and we will call it a day,” Andrius spoke emotionlessly and indubitably. Sean was mortified. His eyes
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!
