Wilson nodded and said in all apparent seriousness, “I’m certain that he’s an invincibilis fighter. Moreover, he’s also the best of the invincibilis fighters judging by his performance in Shangri-la! It’s a waste that I didn’t recognize him earlier! I could have introduced myself to him! What a waste!”At this point, he heaved a sigh and felt extremely sorry for missing his chance.…Meanwhile, Zayn did not linger after he left the hotel and walked toward his home right away. There was only one thing he wanted to do, and that was to see his wife Faye as soon as possible. He missed her more than anything. His experience in Shangri-la was filled with imminent danger, especially his last battle with King Erik and also when he consumed the fruits. Had it not been his strong willpower that allowed him to remember Faye and his family during the crucial moment, he would not have been able to pull through. Hence, the first person he wanted to meet upon finally returning was Faye. He
He was back at last. He stood before the familiar villa, overwhelmed with emotions. He was about to meet Faye and wondered how delighted she would be. It had been a very long time since he had left. She would certainly be pleasantly surprised to see him after being separated for so long, and it would be a joyous scene for sure. Other than Faye, there was also the temptress Shaelyn. He wondered how delighted she would be and how passionately she would treat him. At the thought of that, Zayn could not keep from smiling. He thought about his mother and Lysithea and wondered if they were there as well. Zayn was totally capable of detecting the people in the house using his heightened senses. However, he did not do so because he wanted to use his eyes to see them and tell them his good news!Zayn took a deep breath before immediately walking into the house with long strides. However, the door opened all of a sudden just as he was about to open it and enter the house. A mi
That should not have been the case. It was the weekend and according to Faye’s routine, she should have been resting at home!Zayn immediately spread his consciousness across the whole residential area, but he still could not sense Faye’s presence and instantly had an ominous feeling. Upon entering the house, he found that there was nothing unusual inside. Everything still seemed normal. The only thing unusual was his mother-in-law’s behavior. “Mom, where’s Fifi? Why isn’t she home?” Zayn asked in a deep voice after entering the house with Ruby. Ruby’s footsteps came to a stop upon hearing that, but she offered no explanation.She merely shook her head and said, “Fifi is not home.”“Mom!” Zayn called out to her and said in all apparent seriousness, “Did something happen here? Did an enemy come looking for us? Mom, don’t worry. Please tell me. I’m back now, so I’ll solve any problem there is!”His mother-in-law’s eyes went red with tears. She took a glance at Zayn, widened her
Ruby was hysterical. At last, she could not hold back her tears anymore. Moreover, she clutched Zayn’s hands, filled with helplessness and pleading. Zayn was worried from the start, so his heart sank further at the sight of his mother-in-law’s reaction. Judging from the situation, something bad had most certainly happened to Faye!Moreover, it was a serious matter. Otherwise, his mother-in-law and father-in-law would not have been behaving like that!Faye was a master fighter, so she was already extremely powerful among normal people. Even an ordinary fighter would not be able to threaten her. Moreover, he had also assigned skilled bodyguards to protect her. Despite all that, something had gone horribly wrong. That meant the culprit behind the incident was even more powerful!Who could that be?For a brief moment, many things flashed past Zayn’s mind. Was it done by Adam or Evilasius’s subordinates, or maybe some other enemies?Was it those skilled fighters from the clubs?
Despite his father-in-law’s continued silence, Zayn could tell from his astonished expression that he was right. Without the slightest hesitation, he pulled out his phone and began to call Shaelyn. She soon picked up and sounded surprised. “Is that you, Zayn? You’re back?”She seemed delighted, but Zayn soon noticed a tinge of guilt in her voice as well.It further confirmed his speculation. He nodded and said, “Yes, I’m back. Where are you, Shaelyn? Can you come over to Barrow Cove?”Shaelyn felt even more guilty upon hearing Zayn’s tone. She said, “Uh, Zayn, I’m sorry, but I’m still tied up with some work here and I won’t be able to come over. I…”Before she could finish her sentence, Zayn interrupted her by saying, “Shaelyn, I know that something bad has happened to Fifi. Who abducted her?”Just as he expected, Shaelyn had a massive reaction upon hearing that, and Zayn could hear her drop her phone. He could tell how she was losing her composure. After a while, Shaelyn sp
Zayn took a while to recover from his surprise and said, “Biological father? What’s that supposed to mean? Isn’t Waine Fifi’s biological father?”As he spoke, he turned around and took a glance at Waine. The man looked devastated. Zayn suddenly realized just how much had occurred during his absence. Moreover, Faye had hid quite a few things from him!At the other end of the line, Shaelyn said, “Zayn, it’s going to take a while to explain everything, and I’d rather not do it on the phone. We should find an opportunity for everyone to sit down and talk about this together.”At that point, Shaelyn knew that she would not be able to hide the matter from Zayn, so it would be better for her to give him every detail. Zayn pondered for a moment before he nodded and agreed. Afterward, he asked his mother-in-law about it and learned that it had already been a day since Faye was taken. One day…It had only been a day…Zayn felt even more regret upon hearing that. If he had know
Zayn could not help feeling emotional as he thought about how quickly time had passed. Still, he could not keep the smile from his lips as memories flooded his mind. Even though his life was not always so comfortable, he felt a different kind of happiness when he thought about it. Before he knew it, Faye had become the most important person in his life. He could lose the whole world but not he could never lose her!Zayn would never allow anyone to take Faye from him. It did not matter who her biological father was or how powerful he was!Zayn stayed in the room looking at the decorations and objects in there. Every item carried a memory shared between him and Faye. He never knew how intertwined their lives had become, and he could not imagine how terrible his life would be without her. Without his beloved, what did it mean to be formidable enough to dominate the world?Half an hour passed. Zayn placed the photo of him and Faye back down. He walked out of the room in silence
“Live broadcast? What kind of live broadcast?”Zayn was completely stunned upon hearing her words. How could there be a live broadcast when he was in Shangri-la?In addition, there were only twenty of them when they entered Shangri-la in the beginning and he was one of them. In their final battle, there was no one else there other than King Erik and himself. How could there be a live broadcast?Hence, the first thought coming into his mind was that his mother was teasing him. Nevertheless, Hayley said, “That’s right. There was a live broadcast. A mysterious website suddenly popped up some time ago. It posted about a live broadcast of Shangri-la, offering to let people watch the battle for a high price. At first, no one believed it was real, but then someone made the first payment. When it turned out the broadcast was showing the situation there live, it created a worldwide sensation. Across the world, more and more people paid to watch the broadcast.”Shaelyn and Lysithea nodded
