The woman who had a face full of makeup was ultimately apprehended by Zayn. She glared at Zayn scornfully. “Now who is this little motherf*ck*r, and how dare he stop me? You’re just asking for me to end you!”While she barked aggressively at Zayn, she raised a leg and aimed for his lower body as she ferociously tried to kick him in the b*lls. She had the reaction speed of no ordinary woman, and she was abnormally strong as well. It was apparent that this was because she was frequently involved in street brawls. Had Zayn not picked Faye up from work in advance, she would have been at a huge disadvantage.Zayn let out a rough grunt as he used his knees to shield the targeted area in advance. An audible thud resonated through the air. The woman kicked her legs up and down strenuously as she continued to assault Zayn’s knee. A wretched screech came out of her mouth as she hissed in pain, “Ouch, that f*ck*ng hurts! Are you asking for a death sentence—you’re already a dead man, do you hear
Hearing the crowd, Ruby was practically quivering from anger as she stared daggers at Zayn. “It’s you again, huh, you piece of trash?” she fumed under her breath. “How many times do you have to embarrass us, huh? You’ve gone and challenged the wrath of some underground kingpin? Why don’t you just keel over and die right now?”Zayn was speechless. How poor did his mother-in-law’s comprehension skills have to be in order to get to that conclusion? It was obvious that Faye was the one who provoked them!Not that he wanted to waste his time explaining something like that to a rock.Faye’s panic multiplied. “We should go!”“Go?” Charlotte echoed, her voice thick with derision. “Sure, just try and escape, I dare you. I know who the two of you are now—one of the Carter family’s little ladies and her infamously useless husband, huh? You two sure deserve each other. You can escape me, but don’t think you can escape us.”“Don’t… don’t take another step in our direction! If I feel like I’m i
Faye’s heart skipped a beat.Six large men walked out of the crowd led by a man with the pudgiest face she had ever seen, a big frame, and a very prominent beer belly. He looked to be about 200 pounds. His friends sported very similar physical attributes too, and all of them possessed large swathes of tattoos.It was telling that their lives revolved around the criminal underworld—especially so when they emanated the aura of a cutthroat. Many onlookers who had joined the crowd looked on fearfully as they carefully kept their distance between these newcomers and themselves. Those who had taken to snapping pictures and recording videos made sure to be a lot more subtle about their actions too.“Sky Lord, oh, you’re here! I’m saved!” Charlotte exclaimed and dove into Skyler Moore’s arms before bursting into audible sobs that were hideously dramatic. “I was so scared of being beaten to death by these thugs! Sniff, sniff…”Skyler patted the young woman on the back with his large hands a
Zayn’s expression darkened. This man was unbelievable! “What, you’re saying you’re above the law?”Skyler laughed. “Good, good! You’re catching on. This is my turf, dumbo, and I’m the boss around here I am the law!”He sounded so domineering when he asserted his rule that his five companions joined in on the boisterous cackles. In an instant, the air was filled with a terrible mire of lawless tyranny, causing many of the onlookers to back away in fear.“Hey, isn’t that Sky Lord? Why are you here?” Suddenly, a man had walked forward from the crowd of people.It was Howard Carter. He was looking at Skyler with pleasant surprise on his face.Skyler, too, was a bit bemused at his appearance. “Howard? Didn’t think I would see you here, punk.”Howard stepped forward and lit up a cigarette before passing it to Skyler. “What’s the matter, Sky Lord?”“Nah, nothing big. Just two blind dumb*sses provoking my baby girl. Of course, I’m gonna teach them a lesson!” he answered smugly.Seeing
Just as everyone was expecting Zayn to wet his pants in fear, he shocked them by showing no trace of fear. Instead, he flashed a smile.An unexpected word left his lips, and uncanny silence filled the air around them. The crowd widened their eyes and stared at Zayn in palpable shock. No one had thought that Zayn would not only refuse to beg for mercy, but also insult Skyler to his face.If this was not an act of suicide, then what was? Skyler was the leader of a gang—he had wealth, power, and manpower. Any businessman would know better than to raise his ire, but this sorry excuse of a son-in-law had the b*lls to call him a buffoon?!The muscles around Skyler’s lips twitched. His face was visibly turning red.Ruby almost fainted at the height of her fury. Was Zayn a straight-up moron? How could he have looked at the situation that they were in and thought it was a good idea to say something like that?! He had doomed them—the idiot had doomed them all to death!Ruby was beyond livid
Ruby did not waste another second launching into her next vitriol. “Zayn, you suicidal idiot! How could he think it’s alright for him to hit him?! Was his brain smooth? Or was he so blind that he had no idea what he was looking at! Well, isn’t this just dandy! He’s pissed someone off, and now there’s no way we can recover out of it. We’re doomed! We’re dead! The entire Carter family is gonna be dragged through hell because of a single person’s dumb decision!”“Can you just stop it already, Mom? No matter how useless Zayn is supposed to be, he’s still your son-in-law. You shouldn’t disparage him like that, you know?” Faye replied, frowning.“Son-in-law? Son-in-law, my as*! He has always been just a glorified slave to the family! Also, the two of you never consummated your marriage anyway. You two are only married on paper! How does that make him my ‘son-in-law’?” Ruby retorted.Faye opened her mouth to defend him—only to realize she could not. Ruby was right. Faye had never consummat
“Hell no!” Skyler cried, swinging his hands wildly in an attempt to dismiss his claims. “Come on, brother! I was only joking around! Heh-heh… Ha-ha-ha..?”The way he cracked his jaw wide for a forced fit of laughter somehow looked even worse than if he just broke down and cried. After all, when had Skyler ever been so humiliated before? The looks the crowd was giving him right now peeved him. It summoned a spring of rancor in his head.Today was the day that he finally knew how it felt to mess with the wrong guy.Either way, a wise man would know when to retreat—to Skyler, this was the time. He would pretend to relent this time around, but once he was safe, he would find another chance to return Zayn this brutal humiliation!Zayn could tell exactly what was going on in his head, but he would not deign himself to the mindset of a scum of society and give a damn about what Skyler thought. “Get out of my sight,” he said brusquely. “And don’t ever let me see your face again. Or else… I
Even when they were on their way home, Ruby’s grating billingsgate never once stopped. She kept whining about how much trouble he had gotten themselves in, or why Zayn should have just let the thugs rearrange his face, or how irritating it was that Zayn chose to showboat his skills ‘just because it looked cool’, and now he had offended Skyler Moore and everything was going down to the drain.Her philippic against Zayn never once ceased. In fact, she kept arguing that Zayn should go back and apologized to Skyler right now. Regardless of his methods, Zayn was not supposed to drag the Carters into this feud.Zayn had gotten so chaffed by her endless vitriol that he finally snapped, “Mom, seriously—can you just shut up already? I’ve said I won’t drag the family into this, for crying out loud! What’s the point of your drivels if nothing of that sorts was gonna happen anyway?”Unfortunately, his retaliation only served to enrage her. “Oh, so this is what happened! You useless piece of tra
He had already found his next path and he was hopeful for his future. He was convinced that he could reproduce the miracle perfectly if he had enough time!He turned around abruptly and saw Zayn’s icy cold face. He could not refrain himself from saying aloud, “Zayn! I’m your father-in-law! You can’t kill me!”There was a change of Zayn’s icy cold face at last when he heard that. He furrowed his brows for a moment. However, just as Osiris was pleased about his remark, Zayn had already thrown a punch. It was a simple, unadorned, straightforward, concise punch that landed heavily on Osiris’ chest. A poof that sounded like poking through a layer of paper was heard when he punched through Osiris’ chest. On the other hand, Osiris’ body halted to a stop as well. He widened his eyes in disbelief and lowered his head to look at his wound incredulously….“You… You…” He glared at Zayn, his gaze filled with recalcitrance, fear and regret. Zayn said nonchalantly, “You don’t deserve to be h
“You’re next.”Bang!Upon saying that, he exerted strength in his limbs and flew toward Osiris. Yes, he flew over. His body rose into the air and he was capable of standing steadily in the air without any support. He looked just like a superhero from the movies!Most importantly, he was extremely swift in speed and had already surpassed the speed limit achievable by mankind. Osiris felt an immense sense of danger that he had never felt before at this exact moment. It sent a shiver down his spine instantly and he was actually scared out of his wits that his body turned icy cold. He had a feeling that he was no match for Zayn and that he would die immediately if he stayed!Zayn who advanced beyond invincibilis state was way too powerful that he could not make sense anymore and he was no match for Zayn. He made the quickest and most precise decision that was to run. He would spare no effort in running away from Zayn!While there was life, there was hope. Zayn’s success prov
Hence, they did not have the courage to rescue Zayn even after noticing that he was in imminent danger. They could only watch helplessly and do nothing. “Look! That’s Sergeant Larson! Oh god, what transpired in the past few days? Why is Sergeant Larson being surrounded by so many powerhouses from the clubs? He can’t possibly escape from danger under such circumstances no matter how powerful he is!”“Oh no, oh no, Sergeant Larson is going to die here…”“What should we do? Could it be that we’re not going to do anything to save him?”“I don’t know. Let’s ask for instructions from our superior…”The numerous combat aircraft in the sky began to send out signals and asked for instruction from their superior. Soon, they received the reply and they were instructed not to act rashly or approach easily. It was because they would be doomed if they were to get closer and enter the attack zone of the invincibilis powerhouses. Hence, they could only watch from afar and await reinforcement
Upon saying that, Zayn placed Faye on the ground in an extremely gentle and cautious manner. Faye’s body had already become stiff, but her body had actually begun to turn soft after being caressed by Zayn’s palm. She lay flat on the ground with an expression that looked like she was asleep. After Zayn was done, he turned around and looked toward Osiris, his expression icy cold. He said nonchalantly, “It’s your fault that Fifi is dead. You deserve to die.”Next, his gaze swept across everyone and said something that terrified everyone, “All of you deserve to die!”Upon hearing that, Osiris’ expression turned somber and filled with murderous intent abruptly. He had already realized by now that his hard work and effort of a lifetime was wasted on Zayn!At the moment he found Faye in her aging state completely drained of life and power, he realized that his plan had failed!The result of his hard work for a lifetime was seized by the bastard before him!In an instant, his rage
“Zayn’s willpower is so strong that he is capable of withstanding the pain of his body’s restructuring indifferently. He’s an excellent talent.” The person speaking was the armored man and he was looking at Zayn through the cloud without attempting to conceal his admiration. He had encountered plenty of geniuses and countless geniuses more gifted in martial arts than Zayn. However, Zayn was the only ine whose willpower was so strong that he could endure the pain of body restructuring. Even he himself failed to withstand the pain of body restructuring and had rolled on the ground frantically. The woman nodded to herself as she looked at Zayn without attempting to conceal her admiration and approval. “This Earther is quite impressive. He has already taken the step successfully. My trip to Earth was not wasted this time…huh?”However, it was at this exact moment when Zayn on the ground raised his head and looked in their direction with his sharp gaze as if he could sense them.
Zayn wanted to reject her instinctively, but when he saw the final hopefulness in Faye’s eyes, he could not bring himself to reject her anymore. He knew that it was Faye’s final moment.The glint in Faye’s eyes was vanishing gradually. He opened his mouth and of all the words he wanted to say to her in her last moment, he said, “Yes!”Upon hearing the word, Faye’s aged face cracked a smile. Then, the joyous smile was frozen on her face for eternity…Zayn’s body stiffened as well. He had already forgotten how he landed on the ground, but he remained in the same position with Faye in his arms for a very long time. He hugged Faye until her residual body temperature dispersed and her body began to become stiff. Zayn was heartbroken. He felt a feeling of dejection and hollowness that he had never experienced before and it washed over his entire body like a flood. He lost track of time until he felt the rain pouring from the sky. Even the sky could feel his sorrow and began to w
Zayn had never felt so agonized in his life!It was because he knew that Faye was already at the end of her life, not even God could save her now!He had no idea why his heart would ache so badly and why he hated himself so much. It was well within his expectation that both Faye and him would not survive the fall. Now, he was in so much agony just because Faye was one step ahead of him in death. Was he in agony because Faye sacrificed her life for his survival, or was it because he would not see Faye again for the rest of his life?Zayn’s mind could not function normally anymore because he was in so much pain and tormented now. His body was still dropping constantly and at an increasing speed. They were dropping so fast that Faye could not withstand the process and was suffocating. After seeing Faye’s condition, Zayn did not even think. He began to stop his body from falling at full speed instinctively as he was born to do it until he became completely suspended in the air!I
Upon saying that, Faye kissed Zayn’s lips. It was a kiss so deep and unhindered. Zayn hugged Faye tightly as well. In the beginning, he was under the assumption that it was a very normal kiss. It was their final sentimentality before death. However, Zayn discovered that something was off soon!It was because he could clearly feel a gush of immense power passing from Faye’s mouth constantly. The intensity of the power had even surpassed that of the fruits he consumed in Shangri-la. The unexpected change caught him off guard and he was dumbfounded instantly. He did not manage to respond to the situation. What the heck was going on?He widened his eyes and stared at Faye before him. However, he soon saw something that sent a shiver down his spine. Faye’s hair turned from black to white swiftly at a visible speed!Moreover, Faye’s fair, tender skin aged constantly as if life was drained from her instantly. Her skin turned wrinkly and dry like a tree bark. The situation did
“Listen to my order, all members!”Meanwhile, Osiris spoke, his expression filled with ferocity . “Locate both of their bodies from the cliff at the fastest speed!”Upon saying that, he vanished from where he stood. Meanwhile, two people stood at a mysterious location that no one could see above Regicide Heofon’s ground. These two people were a man and a woman. The man was clad in armor and assumed the posture of an army general, filled with dominance. He exuded a powerful presence that had already surpassed the level of all powerhouses on earth. Even Osiris and Zayn were nothing in this man’s presence. On the other hand, the woman stood in front of the man. Her beauty was impeccable and she was as graceful as a fairy…The woman had her head lowered to look at the cliff ahead of her and cracked a peculiar smile. Speaking of which, it was not the first time these two people showed up on earth. They were the ones who brought up the live broadcast of Zayn and King Erik in Sha
