Waine’s current reaction was even more animated than when Blaze had introduced himself. In fact, he was so excited that he disregarded any form of reservation and strode towards him before bending slightly to catch Xavier’s hand and shake it vigorously. “Mr. Griffin, hello, hello! I’m Waine Carter, a big fan of yours. Super big fan!”

Zayn was in a daze too. He finally recognized who it was. It was Xavier Griffin, the most famous name in antique collection. The last time he saw him was before his grandfather’s paralysis as the two older men were friends.

Of course, since Zayn had still been a very young boy back then, he doubted that the old man would still recognize him.

The old man’s appearance had ushered in an uncanny change to the atmosphere in the room. Gone was Zayn’s previous anxiety; now, he felt jaunty and blithe because he knew what kind of person Xavier was. The old man was a true paragon of expertise and virtue, well-respected by all not only for his mastery in antique a

    Their concerted effort was working. Xavier was successfully led to the door, and just as he was about to leave, Zayn—who could not possibly let the chance slip away—cried out above the din, “Mr. Griffin, if you may? We have an antique clock, the Magpie’s Treasure Nest, with us right now. We’d be delighted if you could give it a once-over.”Zayn enunciated his request with such flawless, doubtless clarity that Xavier immediately stopped dead in his tracks and turned, his face bearing a shocked expression. “Is that so? May I see it?”In an instant, Nathan and Blaze’s faces warped into the most ogre-like grimaces. The glowers they shot at Zayn were brimming with broiling rage and even killing intent—never had they ever wished they could tear a man into pieces with their bare hands more than right now!Zayn Larson, you useless b*st*rd! Why is it so hard to keep your mouth shut?!Waine reeled back from his daze and caught onto Zayn’s suggestion. “Oh, yes! Mr. Griffin, we have an authent

    “But that’s not what you said, Mr. Hunt! You examined it closely and said it cannot be anything but 100% real! You even schooled Zayn for it! You said he’s a non-expert who doesn’t know what he’s talking about, and that his very assessment insulted this antique clock… and now you’re saying it’s fake?” Waine said, unleashing a very agitated verbal sally.Why would he not react this way? The twist was so sharp that it overwhelmed him! From euphoria to despair, back to hope, and now another nosedive? He was not even sure that his heart could take it!Ruby was also greatly agitated. “Yeah, Mr. Hunt. You told us it’s real! You’re the antique expert! How could you have been wrong? Didn’t you even examine it using specialized tools or something?”Blaze hated those two with the entirety of his being. They were eager to see him dead.Of course, he reserved the worst and most rancid for Nathan Sullivan. Had that stupid man not insisted on his cool, rich guy bluff and dragged him into this mu

    Next, he tapped on his WhatsApp app and played a voice clip. He put the audio on speaker so that everyone could hear Nathan’s wretched voice, “Mr. Hunt, thank you for going through all this trouble. Waine and Ruby are commoners, so they’re incapable of recognizing that this is a reproduced antique. They’re both materialistic, money-mad snobs who’ll break into tears of gratitude the moment they unwrap my gift, hahaha…”When the voice clip had played, the atmosphere changed once again. Waine and Ruby were staring at him in cold disgust.“Nathan, I had no idea that you were that type of person!” scorned Waine through clenched teeth. Nathan was white as a sheet. He wanted to bury himself into the ground so badly now because it was just f*ck*ng embarrassing!Ruby chided, “Nathan, I’m terribly disappointed in you!”Faye insisted, “You can have all the gifts back. We don’t deserve it!”“Fifi…” Nathan regretted it greatly. He looked at Faye with pleading eyes. It was unfortunate that sh

    Zayn was startled when he noticed how confused Xavier was. There was no way Xavier could recognize him, was there?If his cover was blown, his plan would be ruined. Frankly, Zayn was not planning on reuniting with the Larsons now, nor did he want Faye to learn that he was a Larson. It was fortunate that Xavier was close to him, so close in fact that the doubt in his gaze dispersed soon after. Aggrieved, Nathan burst out laughing when he heard Zayn’s remark. “Haha! Do you know how much the Magpie’s Treasure Nest is worth? How dare you make such a reckless remark?”He had a hunch that Zayn was not bragging, but more so acting like a fool. Zayn had the audacity to make such an absurd boast. Nathan had actually looked into Zayn’s identity and found that he was just a poor deadbeat who was from the countryside. A pauper like Zayn could not even afford to own a modern clock, let alone the Magpie’s Treasure Nest. It sounded even more ridiculous to think that someone had given it to hi

    The corners of Nathan’s lips twitched when he witnessed Zayn’s despicable behavior. He was infuriated for no apparent reason. He grunted heavily before saying, “There’s no need for you to make such grand gestures. How disgusting! My offer is built upon the premise of you being able to produce the authentic Magpie’s Treasure Nest! If you can’t... I’m not going to ask you to bow down and apologize. All I ask is that you get a divorce with Fifi, and not stand in the way of her happiness!”He emphasized his final sentence by increasing his voice to a thunderous boom. Moreover, he looked over at Faye with a deep, affectionate gaze. It was a repulsive scene that made anyone’s flesh crawl. “Uh… That’s a bit much, isn’t it?” Zayn replied furiously with a frown. Nathan was delighted, and assumed that Zayn’s reaction was out of guilt. He immediately followed up his victory by saying, “Why? Are you afraid? I bet you’re just making a scene to impress these people. There’s no Magpie’s Treasur

    Just like that, an absurd bet had unfolded. Zayn and Nathan had also taken a written oath. Both of them appeared to be very confident. However, no one else favored Zayn besides himself. They assumed that he was only making a scene to impress the others, and that he was bringing about his own destruction. Faye was almost driven to madness due to her boiling rage. She should have listened to her parents’ advice and refused to let Zayn join if she were to know that something like that would happen. As luck would have it, she was about to be embarrassed again!Moreover, it had to happen with so many outsiders watching their every move. She felt both anxious and furious at the same time as she mulled over the outcome.Most importantly, Zayn had to get a divorce from Faye if he lost. The word ‘divorce’ had been brought up more than once. Although Faye had brought up the request in the past, she had recently lost the attention to go through with it.If her and Zayn had to get a divorce

    On the contrary, Xavier was stunned when he laid his eyes on the Magpie’s Treasure Nest. Soon after, his eyes lit up and his expression had turned fervent!He whipped out a magnifying glass from his pocket, put on his glasses, and began examining the Magpie’s Treasure Nest in detail. The more he examined it, the more excited he became. His face was even flushed from the sheer amount of excitement coursing through his veins.Everyone was dumbfounded upon noticing his reaction, and suddenly, an absurd realization popped into their minds!Was it really authentic?On the other hand, Nathan’s smile was already frozen stiff on his face. His heart was racing while his hands and feet had turned ice cold. He was beginning to grow restless. Faye appeared to be caught in a daze. What was happening? Could it be…?Zayn smiled as he asked, “How’s it, Mr. Griffin? The Magpie’s Treasure Nest under my name is authentic, is it not?”Mr. Griffin raised his head. He did not answer Zayn’s questio

    The atmosphere in the private room had been plunged into an absolute silence. Everyone had their eyes trained on him.Nathan shuddered, he was on the verge of bursting into tears.“That’s impossible! You didn’t examine it properly! How could an antique in such terrible condition possibly be the Magpie’s Treasure Nest?!” Nathan’s vehemently put the blame on Xavier in his distraught state.Xavier pulled a long face upon hearing Nathan’s accusation. “Nathan, are you doubting my professionalism? Do you think my morals are skewed?” Taking note of Xavier’s fury, Nathan realized that he could not take back what he had just said. He definitely did not want to bow down to Zayn and call him ‘Daddy’ a hundred times either!As a result, he would rather offend Xavier than betray his dignity. What a joke! He would be better off dead than bowing down to Zayn. He grunted reluctantly and said, “How should I say this? Everyone knows that Zayn’s married into the Carters and is just a pauper fro

    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.

    “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.
