A slender figure entered the room. It was Rainbow. She was instantly stunned when she saw Andrius. Andrius’ hands froze in the air as his body petrified. “Ahem…” He awkwardly cleared his throat and explained, “Luna isn’t sleeping properly, so… I just want to take off her jacket…” Rainbow’s mind was instantly flooded with thoughts. It seemed like Andrius and Luna must have done it, or else he would not be explaining it in such an awkward manner. If so, then Rainbow could not allow them to further develop their relationship! The tighter their relationship, the lesser the chance of divorce, meaning her odds of getting Andrius would be infinitely lower. “Allow me.” Rainbow went over. Andrius awkwardly stepped away, but after he regained his composure, he noticed something strange. Rainbow was awfully meticulous. She took Luna’s dirty jacket off, wiped her face with a warm towel, and brought her cousin to the bed before she wrapped her with a thick layer of blanket to cover
Andrius was completely petrified. No! He had to hold himself together and not fall for the woman’s deception! He took a deep breath and tried to calm his mind down. Pfft… Rainbow could not hold her laughter back at Andrius’ reaction. Fortunately, she was in a teasing mood since she too was afraid that Luna might catch them together doing something undesirable. A while later, Luna came back fresh with makeup. “It’s time.” Luna took the wild king ginseng and walked out of the room. “We must hurry to my grandmother’s celebration.” It was not exactly a huge celebration because only the Conerys were invited to gather in the main hall of the estate. Jane wore an auspicious red dress with an energetic aura and lively eyes as she sat in the center. Flanking her sides were her sons, Alec and Bernard, respectively. Then, there were her daughters, Luna’s aunts. Luna sat at the main table, representing her mother, and Andrius was beside her. The last two seats at the tabl
Renault became the center of attention. He was like the sun surrounded by planets. The Conerys did not forget to mock Andrius while they were flattering Renault. As for Luna, she was isolated by the family and no one was there to talk to her except for Rainbow. Only Rainbow knew Andrius’ true identity. She held her laughter back and signed at Andrius using her lip gestures, spelling, “He said he wants to invite you to our house!” Andrius simply smiled. After the bombardment of flattery, Alec brought out a beautiful box and gave it to Jane. “Mother, today is your 70th birthday. I don’t have anything valuable, but these are a part of gilded jade bangles. I want to give them to you on this special day. I wish you a healthy and long life and I wish our family is blessed with prosperity.” Jane accepted the box with all smiles. “Thank you, Alec. Thank you.” “Mother, this is my gift for you.” Bernard brought out a pearl necklace. Jane’s other daughters started to give her the
The Wolf King?! The Wolf King gave Luna the wild king ginseng? Luna’s words shocked everyone. The Wolf King! Who would keep calm in front of him? No one! However, the Conerys were baffled by why the Wolf King would have given her the wild king ginseng.It did not make sense. Not a bit! It was ridiculous and outrageous! Therefore, everyone refused to believe her. “Luna…” Alec grunted with displeasure. “You said the Wolf King gave you the wild king ginseng? So, you met him in person?” “Yeah! Come on, tell us!” “Tell us what he looks like. Renault will be meeting him in the afternoon!” The questions put Luna in a difficult position. She had no idea what the Wolf King looked like. She looked down. “I don’t know…” “You don’t know?!” Alec laughed out loud. “You don’t know, yet you said the Wolf King gave it to you? Who would believe you?” Luna argued, “It is from the Wolf King! He told the owner of the auction to give this to me!” Tsk! Alec continued contemptuo
“You, you…” Jane’s expression turned pale. Her finger pointing at Stephen was shaking violently. “W-what is the meaning of this?!” Coffins at her birthday? It was more of a curse than a present! Stephen grinned and explained, “Oh, it’s nothing. I just want the Conerys to completely disappear from the East River State!” Jane was afraid because they were outnumbered. She asked, “Why are you targeting my family?” “You should be asking those two.” Stephen narrowed his eyes dangerously as he pointed at Andrius and Luna. Jane was shocked. Her expression instantly turned grim as she bellowed, “Luna, Andrius, what did you two do to make this man this angry?” Andrius pointed at the wild king ginseng on the floor and said, “He tried to bid against the Wolf King during the auction yesterday.” His words shocked every one of the Conerys. “Bidded for the wild king ginseng?” “So, the wild king ginseng is real?” “Luna really got a 500-million wild king ginseng?!” However, the s
Everyone looked in the direction of where the voice came from. A person entered. The man had a stern face with a natural aura, his gait was firm and steady, and his temperament was proof that he held a higher social status. Behind him were a bunch of bodyguards in suits. The four forefront bodyguards held a meticulously decorated red box each. The item that the boxes held must be valuable. It was Malfoy’s father, Edgar Aston, the master of the Astons from the capital. He came to meet and butter up to the Wolf King and coincidentally ran into this situation. It was a great chance for him to present himself, so he stepped up. Stephen glanced at him. With disdain, he asked, “Who the hell are you?” Edgar did not answer the man. He walked into the hall and went up to Jane. “I heard today is Madam Montecarlo’s 70th birthday. I, Edgar Aston of the Astons, have brought presents to celebrate this wonderful day.” He glanced at Andrius while introducing himself. The meaning of the g
“There’s also us, the Falkners!” “And me, Lance Song!” “Gravik Kansas from the Kansas family!” “Me too.” Right after Stephen’s voice subsided, another large group of people entered the front yard, taking up almost every inch of space. They all took turns to give Jane a present, wished her, and then stood behind Andrius. The gentry were all powerful figures in the capital; one word from any of them could easily wipe out the Conerys. Now, all of them were attending Jane’s 70th birthday with valuable presents and a heartfelt blessing. The Conerys, Jane included, looked at each other in confusion. The situation had escalated beyond Jane’s imagination. With that many wealthy gentries opposing him, Stephen’s wrinkled face turned grim. “Are you people sure you want to stand against me? Are you all aware that I am Stephen Hoffman?” The masters of the wealthy families knew the name Stephen Hoffman, but they were even more familiar with the Wolf King. Stephen Hoffman was nothin
Swoosh! The soldiers marched into the front yard, forming multiple lines, inside and outside, to surround Stephen and his men. Not even an ant could get through the human barricade, let alone a person. The guns were all pointed at Stephen and his men as though a nightmare had descended upon them, devouring them all. After the soldiers had Stephen and his men surrounded, they opened up a path for a middle-aged man in military uniform to pass through. The man’s boots thudded loudly as he made his way forward. His face looked rigid and sharp while his keen eyes made it difficult for one to stare at him. The man was Decker Armstrong, the military governor of the East River State! Gasp! Decker always appeared in headlines and on TV, and it was impossible for anyone, especially wealthy families, not to know him. His appearance made everyone gasp, except Andrius. Even the arrogant and fierce Stephen felt deterred and afraid. He shrank backward immediately. “Men!” Decker po
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!
