The memorial service for Grandpa Larson was held unbeknownst to any commoners because they would not be involved due to the disparity of their statuses. However, it was a grand event for the upper-class social circle of Waltz City and Fenx City. Many people would be paying rapt attention to this event. Many fine restaurants in Waltz City and Fenx City had tried contacting the Larsons in advance in the hopes that they could cater for the memorial and make a huge profit from it. The memorial service for the Larsons was not held at just any grand location—it was held at The Oasis. Many venue vendors were very disappointed to hear the news as they were missing out on a huge business deal. Everyone was well aware that the Larsons were very generous with their money, and that the family’s annual memorial service would be held at an especially grand scale, so they would have been looking at a profit of a few million dollars.However, The Oasis was deemed to be an acceptable location unde
“I’m going to seize Zayn and beat him up when he gets here. We’ll see if he still has the nerve to be so cocky.”“That’s right. You should beat him up so badly until he becomes docile and see if he will hand over the seven billion dollars of inheritance obediently…”They resented Zayn very much. When they noticed that Jordan, Zidane, and the others did not comment further, they began complaining louder and louder to vent their dissatisfaction with Zayn. All at once, the originally quiet hall was filled with all sorts of clamorous discussions. As one of the executives of The Oasis, Raymond was here as well. He could not help feeling breathless with anxiety on behalf of Zayn as he listened to the displeased and angry complaints of these Larsons. It seemed like the memorial service today was a trap for Zayn. If Zayn had the courage to turn up for real, perhaps things would not end well for him!He regretted it. He should have warned Zayn in advance if he had known about this so t
Zayn was here for real. Raymond’s pupils constricted beyond his control when he saw Zayn as he felt even more anxious now. The numerous Larsons in the hall narrowed their eyes and assumed completely different expressions from Raymond’s the moment they saw Zayn. Delighted, they were gloating to themselves about how successful their scheme was…Jordan looked at Zayn with a tinge of admiration in his gaze. Zayn had the courage to attend the event solo anyhow. Not everyone had the boldness to attend a memorial service alone. Of course, it was one thing to admire him and another thing to decide what to do with him. Zidane looked towards Zayn with the corners of his lips curled up ever so slightly. He looked just like a poisonous snake that had its eyes on its prey. Everyone’s gaze was fixed upon Zayn. At this very moment, he sensed pressure that he had never experienced before. However, the pressure dissolved into nothingness when he took a breath. He smiled and walked into the h
The atmosphere in the room immediately tensed up when he made the statement. There was a slight change in everyone’s expression. Jordan’s pupils constricted ever so slightly for a moment. Soon afterward, he revealed an expression filled with guilt as he heaved a sigh heavily and said, “Sigh! It was our fault for being too impulsive. We lost our senses when we saw Master Larson turn into a vegetable, and we didn’t investigate things properly first before we kicked you out of the family. It was all our fault! Zayn, I’ve been feeling very guilty for having done that to you all this while, and I haven’t been able to sleep well for nights on end. Sigh…”Jordan was so good at acting that he could have won the best actor award. Not even Zayn could immediately tell that the regret and guilt on his expression were fake. “Uncle, your acting skills are improving by the day. I was almost deceived by you, heh-heh,” said Zayn while chuckling. Jordan’s expression tightened for a moment instantly
Zayn’s words were like a nuke sending a seismic shock to every single Larson in the room. Their eyes widened, and their reactions quickly became violent.Many of them went from zero to absolute rage in a matter of seconds, and they were sure to let Zayn know through the glares they shot him. The most senior members of the family—those who had been talking just moments ago—slapped their hands over their chest as the color left their mien before they gasped for air. The news was so shocking to them that they thought they were going to pass out!Jordan’s reaction was overblown, too. He blurted out a yelp, “Seven billion dollars of inheritance and you gave it all out for charity?!”Just how thriftless and dumb must a punk be to pull off that sort of thing?!Apoplectic, many in the family abandoned whatever courtesies they might have used moments ago as they leaped to their feet and strode towards Zayn before unleashing a salvo of shrieking censures.“You prodigal b*stard! How could yo
What really cemented the possibility into reality, however, was that supercilious half-smile on Zayn’s lips.In unison, the crowd felt their cheeks burning as exasperated humiliation lashed across their faces. A massive rant strewn from colorful and interesting word choices blared within their minds as the realization of being played like a fiddle bred new rage.Jordan was one of those whose recovery from shock was instantly followed by a surfeit of embarrassed fury. The only reason why he did not send Zayn straight to his maker right there and then was because that young man still had his use.“A-ha! You know me so well, Zidane!” Zayn said, chuckling. He pulled out his phone and called the bank, opting for information on his bank account when prompted. Soon, a clear, jaunty voice belted from the speakers, “Thank you for calling, our most esteemed Black Card VVIP. The amount of money remaining in your account is 9,110,034,258 dollars and 33 cents.”All manners of noises whisked out
All Zayn did was smile without another word and enjoy the fulsome adulations and their pathetic flatteries. It was impossible to not feel immensely gratified—especially since these were the same family members who gave not a damn about the blood he shared with them when they decided to kill him with character assassination four years ago.Zayn was practically banished from the family under the threat of death by physical assault! It had been such a harrowing experience to him that he remembered every single bit of it vividly. The first two years following that incident had given him frequent nightmares as he catapulted up from his sleep, drenched in cold sweat and dread.Look at how the tides had changed. Now, the very same people were licking his boots with the gushiness of a dog. Zayn could not help but be amused by this striking irony.Meanwhile, the Larsons continued to flatter him as hard as they could until they ran out of flowery things to say, and yet, the young man appeared
Knowing that this was all for the bigger good of the family, Jordan took a deep breath and forced his ire down. The most important thing he had to do right now was to fool Zayn into giving up the money. As for payback? Well, he had time.With that in mind, Jordan smiled. “This is Liber Pater’s Les Liberalia. If you like it so much, Zayn, I’m happy to procure more for you.”“Really? Thanks! Ten bottles for me, please,” Zayn said, cracking a toothy grin.The corner of Jordan’s lips twitched. Ten bottles of Liber Pater?! What did he think he was ordering—Coca-Cola?As the exchange dragged on, Zayn’s antics embittered the crowd more and more. And yet, they could not afford to show even a faint sign of vexation.“Right. I’ll do my best,” Jordan babbled, his smile ossified. He had never been so humiliated in his life since the day he turned into the patriarch of the family!He paused for a moment before asking, “Zayn, as we were discussing—”“Oh, Uncle Jordan, that was so out of left
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
