Gordon was not dumb. It was pretty clear to him that those ignorant upstarts had offended Zayn. He frowned immediately, hints of his anger showing between his brows.He was a clever man. Like Sean, he was good at guessing the intentions of the other bigshots. Just based on Zayn’s initial reaction, he knew well that the former had no plans to let these men off the hook so easily.The upstarts heard Zayn, but they were too scared to halt their steps, continuing to march forwards as if they were none the wiser. They were hoping that they could get away by feigning oblivion.“Hold it right there!” Gordon would not give them the opportunity. He hollered right away with an icy and threatening tone.Zayn saw how servile they were to Gordon just now. if Gordon had enabled their behavior, he would have become the incompetent one instead. At Gordon's level, a simple gaze or an action, was all it took to understand things.Zayn wanted to teach the men a lesson.The uncouth men felt their li
Skye Long was scared witless. It took him a great deal of effort to get to where he was today. Earning 300 thousand dollars annually was great—he was welcomed warmly when he returned to his hometown in a Range Rover. People buttered him up, he felt like an elite. To ask him to give up a life so amazing and practically ruin it beyond repair, he would never be able to live with it!He did not doubt Gordon’s ability to do so. They lived in a law-abiding society, but if Gordon wanted him gone, Skye would have been removed without a trace at his command. Nothing would happen to Gordon because Gordon did not even have to break the law to do something like that. What was more, if Gordon had to address the young man in front of him as “Sir” dutifully, who knew what he was capable of doing to him.Hence, he kneeled down wholeheartedly without any hesitation. At his age, dignity and pride were nothing. What mattered the most was saving his *ss!Skye’s straightforward kneel made Zayn quite spe
That was how the situation came to be.However, an applause began to thunder from out of the blue. Clap, clap, clap… A mocking voice followed.“Zayn Larson, what an impressive performance! Making new money beg and down before you. Tsk, tsk, it must feel amazing being able to push your authority onto others!”The voice was shrill, the tone brimmed with scorn. It immediately captured the attention of many people.Zayn had barely been able to access his documents when someone new decided to interrupt him once again. Frowning deeply, he was further nettled when he looked up and saw who it was.Dressed dapperly from head to toe in luxury brands, the man who had approached Zayn was being escorted by a group of people. He looked at Zayn with derision, like he was looking at a clown.“Nathan Sullivan,” Zayn uttered lightly. There was no doubt about it—the person standing before him was none other than Nathan, who had also come to attend Alexandra’s engagement ceremony.“I see you still
He eyed Gordon just then. There was no way that a smart man like Gordon could not understand him, so he stepped out from behind Zayn to come face to face with the young man, looking icy and hostile.Gordon was on the older side but he had a natural air of belligerence that most of the wealthy could not resist. After all, he started with nothing and earned his place in a gang through actual blood, sweat and tears.The young man beside Nathan caved in at Gordon’s glare. He looked threatened and his eyes were going all over the place, but he managed to snap, “Hayes, what do you want?”Nathan looked solemn as well when he leveled his gaze with Gordon’s. He knew that the latter was familiar with Zayn, but he did not understand why someone like him would want to be acquainted with Zayn. It was out of the norm… unless Zayn was his illegitimate son or some obscure relative…Gordon cracked a grin that looked rather out of place, but there was no hint of an actual smile. Instead, it felt inc
Gordon came and ate alongside Zayn. Curious as he was, he did not press into the matter because there was something he understood very well, and that was not to pry too much into matters that ought to remain undiscussed, or else it would invite doom.After putting his hunger at bay, Zayn toasted his glass with Gordon’s before saying with a smile, “Thanks for just now.”“Sir, you’re too courteous. It’s what is expected of me,” Gordon dismissed quickly.Meanwhile, things were looking wholly different for Nathan.“Nathan, why didn’t you teach them a lesson? Gordon Hayes was too much!”“Yeah, Gordon is just an old josser. That old geezer is literally on death’s doorstep. We don’t have to be scared of him.”“And that Zayn character too, he’s so cocky! If we weren’t already enjoying ourselves at the engagement party, I would’ve made sure he paid for it!”“Nathan, you’re too nice for excusing him. If it were me, I wouldn’t have been able to swallow it for sure!”“I know right…”The r
Relishing in his lackeys’ fawning, Nathan felt his sour mood being lifted. He could not help looking over to where Zayn was. When he spotted him casually eating his fix while being completely unaware of his impending doom, Nathan scoffed.‘Hah, Zayn Larson, pat yourself on the back. Let’s see what you do when Mr. Hyde’s here!’Nathan was already looking forward to the interesting show of Zayn’s expressions then!There was no doubt that Zayn knew what Nathan was thinking about. It barely ruffled him since Mr. Hyde was his man. What was there to be concerned about?Instead, he was more worried about word getting to Faye. It seemed very likely…Zayn went to the washroom. When he came back, he heard a lot of people talking about him.“There’s a big shot in Waltz City, do you guys know?”“Someone big? Who?”“The chairman of Violet Vision Media Corp! Its market value’s exceeded 850 million dollars to date! It’s crazy. You know, it was only 300 million dollars two months ago, but it’s
Nevertheless, it was only natural that he would never admit it.Who was the talk of the town—the most mysterious person in Waltz City at the current moment? Without question, it was the chairman of Violet Vision. Within just two short months, he had managed to raise Violet Vision’s net worth from 300 million dollars to 850 million. The chairman’s brilliant strategies and incredible capabilities were not something any ordinary person would be able to utilize. Although Nathan was very conceited and arrogant, he knew that there was still a distance between him and the chairman of Violet Vision. He could not help but lament. “Ahem!” He coughed to regain his composure before asking, “What do you think?”The other rich guy immediately replied, “Of course you know who he is! Are you playing dumb, Roy? Do you not know who he is? Wouldn’t it take just a simple phone call for him to be acquainted with the chairman of Violet Vision?”With a laugh, the guy immediately tried to suck up to Na
Since it was a huge banquet that night, there were many glamorous celebrities and models attending. Even the waitresses were gorgeous, creating a sea of beautiful women. Nevertheless, the moment Alexandra showed up on stage, her peerless beauty made all the other women make way for her, especially with that look of jubilation on her face. Her smile had a hint of temptation that could make any man fall head over heels for her!Undeniably, the world was not fair. There were some people born with silver spoons in their mouths. Not only were they born into the upper class, but they had exquisite features that could attract the attention of anyone. An example of such a person would be Alexandra because, at that very moment, she was the highlight of the entire event, the one and only star of the show.Because of her appearance, the large banquet hall momentarily fell silent as almost everyone stopped what they were doing and focused their attention on her!Alexandra was wearing a milk-whi
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
