Zayn responded to that with silence. In truth, it was not difficult for him to figure out that the powerhouses from Earth would go there when they entered the so-called Shangri-la. On the other hand, the natives of that world were too weak for the formidable invaders. Without the limits of laws and morality, the men of Earth unleashed the evil hidden inside when they were there and committed all sorts of terrible deeds. In truth, such situations happened frequently on Earth too. In the past, foreign invaders would slaughter local indegenious people and colonize lands just because they had superior weapons. It was the evil of human nature. Zayn was fortunate that he was capable of upholding his morality and not reduced to becoming like them. He apologized to Dilidaer solemnly. Other than that, there was nothing else he could do to remedy the situation. Next, Zayn went to the main topic of asking Dilidaer about the ‘fruit’. Unfortunately, she knew nothing of it, so Zayn had
“King Erik is extraordinary indeed. Over the last few centuries, there was almost no one more gifted than him in martial arts training. Zayn can be described as the only person capable of fighting him currently.” At this point, Paxton shook his head and said in a regretful tone, “What a waste that Zayn has too little time. Now that King Erik got his hands on two fruits, Zayn will not be a match for him should they meet.”Antony was very flustered upon hearing Paxton’s remark. “What should we do then? Zayn is not only the top genius in Rheasia, but his presence affects our entire country. If he were to die, it would have a terrible effect on our nation!”Paxton shook his head and said in a helpless tone, “There’s nothing that we can do now. We can only pray that Zayn can turn misfortune into good fortune and hope that he won’t bump into King Erik so soon. Otherwise, he will be in danger.”The way Paxton put it signified how troubled Zayn’s situation had become. Antony sighed repeat
Master fighters were regarded as overlords who could dominate a crowd of heroes in the common world. On the other hand, they were found in abundance within Regicide Heofon. If these master fighters were to invade any country, they would be so powerful that they would make a clean sweep! No nation would be able to ward off their invasion!A small gazebo had been built on a great mountain in Regicide Heofon, and two men were playing chess. One of them said, “Thor, your student is quite impressive. He is reputed to be the top martial arts genius and a rare talent . He has already managed to acquire two fruits so swiftly after entering Shangri-la. I believe that he will gather ten fruits soon enough and achieve invincibilis state at one go. Your student is so gifted that I think that I'm sure not many people in the world will be a match for him once he reaches invincibilis.The man speaking was holding a white pawn piece. He wore a plain gray shirt and exuded a sage-like presence. Hi
Osiris asked, “Thor, have you found your daughter already?”He stared at Thor closely but feigned nonchalance and continued to move his chess piece. Still, his gaze gave him away. “Thor, I heard that your daughter was born with a rare physical trait. I heard that her unique Rhea Physique can help an invincibilis fighter to progress to the immortalis state. Thor, I’m afraid that there are quite a number of people in this world who want your daughter.”He spoke in a casual tone, but the content of his words was shocking. If the information were to spread, it would certainly have a massive effect on the world!Invincibilis was already considered a matchless state. Countless fighters trained their whole lives just to make a breakthrough in their training to invincibilis state. Anyone who could reach the invincibilis state would be unmatched in the world and win a place in history. Moreover, the act of reaching the invincibilis state would increase one’s lifespan to a brand-new level.
If this information was spread to the others, it would certainly cause a huge commotion. Most importantly, Thor’s daughter possessed Rhea Physique. Even though no one knew what Rhea Physique was, it could help an invincibilis powerhouse progress to the true immortalis state and that alone was enough to drive people frantic!One could imagine how it would cause a worldwide sensation if the information were to spread. Countless people would go frantic. Osiris said, “It’s Caelum’s old monkey business, huh? He’s fearless, but Thor, he stole your daughter many years ago. Her Rhea Physique might already…”At this point, he did not continue to speak anymore but the meaning behind his words was already very obvious.However, Thor did not appear to be flustered at all and said nonchalantly, “Her Rhea Physique has yet to mature…”Osiris felt relieved to hear that, but he soon remembered something that made him anxious. Thor’s expression showed that he was quite confident, so it seemed th
“Are you alright, madam?” a female subordinate asked out of concern. Faye was jolted back to reality. Nodding, she stood up and said to the others, “Proceed with the meeting.”With that, she left the meeting room right away. The rest of the people found her departure strange, but they did not think too much about it. Zayn alone had the final say in the Larson Group and Faye was his wife. Hence, Faye held an exceedingly high status in the company and no one had the courage to disrespect her. Faye let out a long breath after she left the meeting room and began massaging her temples, her expression troubled. She felt mentally and physically exhausted. Her mind had been so tense recently, and she felt like she was suffocating. Her nightmares were recurring more and more frequently to the point that she would experience one almost every night. In fact, she was so scared of the nightmare that she dared not sleep with Shaelyn. It was not that she did not trust Shaelyn, but she
Faye inhaled a deep breath and forced herself to smile because she did not wish to let Shaelyn see her disheveled state. Hence, she said with a grin, “I’m fine, just a little tired from work.”She had hid it well, yet how could she keep it from Shaelyn?Shaelyn’s expression turned solemn upon seeing Faye. She made her way to her, staring straight at her, and said, “Is the situation getting worse?”Still smiling, Faye avoided her gaze and said, “Nope. It’s pretty good.”“Don’t lie to me, Fifi. Your eyes have already given you away! I’m sure that the situation is getting worse. Did the man find you?” Shaelyn grabbed Faye’s hand and said in all apparent seriousness, “Don’t hesitate anymore. You have to tell Zayn. Otherwise, you won’t be able to pull through if you continue like this.”“I’m fine.” Faye shook her head and continued to force her smile. As it happened, Faye's smile only turned Shaelyn even more serious and worried. “Fifi, don’t try to deceive me. You didn’t share a roo
Shaelyn was panic-stricken by the sight of Faye, yet there was nothing she could do. It was fortunate that Faye’s condition was not as bad as before. Her icy cold body was warming up slowly and her face was not as ghastly pale as before Still, Shaelyn remained extremely worried about her even if that was the case. It was because she knew that Faye was already in grave trouble, and she could not allow this to continue anymore. Even so, it would be inappropriate for Shaelyn to make a decision by herself since Faye had already said otherwise. If anything were to happen because of her choice, she would feel guilty for the rest of her life. “What should we do then, Fifi? You can’t keep this going forever. Your health is worsening by the day and if this continues, it won't be long until your body stops working!” Shaelyn said anxiously, “Zayn and you have been married for so many years and you have yet to bear a child for Zayn yet. You must hang on!”Faye’s body shook violently upon
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
