He wore a smile but if one looked closely, his smile was wry and his sad eyes were filled with longing…Seeing him come over, there was a bit of a change on Faye’s face. After a few seconds, she finally lifted her head and flashed a smile. “Yeah, I’m doing fine. You? How have you been?”“Mmm, I’ve been well too.”Anyone smart enough would have immediately noticed that their conversation was quite odd.The expression of the secretary standing beside was interesting. She was curious and nosy, thoroughly scrutinizing Zayn. Faye obviously knew him personally.After the simple exchange of greetings, what came next was awkward silence. Neither of them knew what to say.Seamus noted the dissonance and unusual tension between Zayn and Faye. Narrowing his eyes, his loathing for Zayn grew.Seamus had already chosen Faye as his target. He was going to get his hands on her regardless, but Zayn’s appearance had become his biggest threat.His eyes flitted about as his mind rapidly tried to c
This Seamus Collins had quite the grip. He was more powerful than the usual bunch.Before Zayn countered, he felt a little pain but that was all. Zayn was rather confident when it came to hand and arm strength. It was not just ordinary guys like Seamus, even muscle-bound gym rats were no match for Zayn’s current capabilities. He could take them all down easily.Zayn had not wanted to make things difficult for Seamus as he had already divorced Faye. There was no reason for him to interfere with Faye’s choice in friends, as long as the person did not harbor malicious intentions toward her.What was happening now, however, was Seamus challenging him directly. It made no sense for him to back down.Hence, after a momentary surprise, Zayn returned the favor.As for Seamus, he smirked after shaking hands with Zayn, absolutely certain he could crush Zayn and embarrass him. He was incredibly confident about his grip strength. He looked more studious than athletic, but he actually clocked
“Oh, is that the case?” Zayn nodded. “I’m a member of The Oasis. I can take you both in. Would you like to go together?”Before Faye could say anything, Seamus chuckled. “Haha, Mr. Larson, are you kidding me? Do you know what The Oasis is? Only the wealthiest of the wealthy are allowed entry. Member registration costs 750 thousand dollars! Furthermore, there’s an upgrade this week, so only Golden Amethyst cardholders with 1.5 million dollars and above can enter. You aren’t telling me that you have a Golden Amethyst Card, are you?”Seamus’s tone was brimming with mockery and taunt. He did not like Zayn, and the incident just now only deepened his distaste for him. He would die to see Zayn being embarrassed in public right now, just so he could salvage his image in Faye’s eyes.Faye snapped back to reality as well. This was The Oasis where even the basic membership cost 750 thousand dollars. How could Zayn have that much money?“I don’t have a Golden Amethyst card, that’s for sure…”
Zayn was rarely an exhibitionist, but today, he felt very much like one in front of Faye. He wanted Faye to look at him with a renewed gaze and even regret the divorce from him.His mentality was kind of childish and petty, but he really was unable to let his feelings go. There had been times when he wondered if Faye had ever regretted it…Now that he had the chance, Zayn refused to let it go—even when he knew that it seemed meaningless for him to do it.Faye stomped her foot, miffed. Zayn was such a conceited fella who was always this annoying and creating trouble for her.On her way here, she found out what type of setting The Oasis was. The lowest-ranked membership, which was Golden Black, cost 750 thousand dollars, whereas Golden Amethyst that was a rank higher was worth more than 1.5 million dollars. What in the world…?This was no investment or necessary expenditure. This was just a club for leisure which also meant that members who could afford that much money were at least
Raymond was one of the people in charge of The Oasis and a Larson, so he knew Zayn.However, the question made the guard ask in confusion, “Who’s Raymond Larson?”Zayn was even more surprised. “You guys don’t even know Raymond? That’s the general manager of The Oasis… Never mind, get Mr. Layton here. He knows Raymond.”Seamus and Faye came up to him then. When Seamus saw that Zayn had been stopped by the guards, he could not conceal the gloating he wore and chuckled, “What’s the matter, Mr. Larson? Didn’t you say you could enter just by flashing your face? Why have you been stopped?”Faye grimaced as she felt like the past embarrassment was back to haunt her when she looked at Zayn.“Zayn, just leave. Stop being stubborn and insisting on entering.” She thought that she was already being tactful, but Zayn shook his head anyway and pressed on. “It’s fine. These guards are new, so they don’t recognize me or the Elite Card I hold. It’s expected that they forbid me from going in. Once
Zayn was stunned by the term of address. Trailing his gaze after the voice, he espied a familiar person standing at the front staring at him in shock.“Raymond?” The name left Zayn’s lips in surprise at the sight of the person. There was no mistake that the man who stood in front of him right now was Raymond, whom he had mentioned just earlier, one of the current higher-ups at The Oasis.Zayn’s expression was a little weird. What a coincidence just as he spoke of the devil…There were several other people beside Raymond who were all executive members of The Oasis. They mirrored Raymond’s surprise when they saw Zayn and even looked a little reverent and in disbelief. Exchanging looks among themselves, their gazes were asking “Did Zayn return to the Larson’s?”.When Raymond hurried over to Zayn, his face brightened up with excitement and a hint of respect. He was about to call him young master again when Zayn spoke, “Raymond, I’d like to bring a few friends of mine to The Oasis. Prep
They did not expect to have dug their own graves this time. This young man called Zayn was not ordinary at all. On the contrary, he must definitely be someone prominent.When Seamus took in what was happening, he felt his scalp tingle as a shudder ran through his whole body. He would have died to slap himself hard and wake himself up. Gah, what had he done? How did he hurt the feelings of some VIP for the mere Faye? He was doomed, he was ruined. Tragically, there were no tears left for Seamus to cry now.As for Faye, she was stunned as she stared at Zayn, who was smiling lightly, in a stupor. Since when did Zayn ever have the upper hand?Taking in their reactions, Zayn felt proud. He finally looked cool in front of Faye for once.Raymond’s face fell, however, upon realizing that the two guards had affronted Zayn just now. Furiously, he rebuked them and fired them on the spot. The other higher-ups from The Oasis broke out in cold sweat just from watching the scene play out. It was f
Zayn looked at the immensely familiar face of Faye’s that felt so estranged now. He felt a complex mix of feelings as well, like he had a lot to tell her, but when the words came to the tip of his tongue, he turned mute and could barely utter a single word.Faye was the same. Dipping her head, she picked up the glass, but her gaze was distracted and fleeting, never once trained on Zayn.The Thule Room was extravagant. One would feel like they were in paradise simply being in it. Its sheer size and realistic interior felt like another world in itself. Even the workers in charge of serving the room were incredibly good-looking people. Any one of them could be scouted and made a star or model, but they were only servers here.Zayn felt complicated coming back here. It had been more than four years since he had been back. After all, The Oasis was his grandfather’s singular effort and was supposed to be passed down to him too.Silence permeated the air.Both of them sat opposite each o
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
