Zayn did not feel threatened by him at all. He sneered and woke Shaelyn with a gentle tap. “Wake up. We’ll be there soon.”Shaelyn opened her eyes to find herself leaning against Zayn’s shoulder and her drool on his shirt. She could not help blushing, despite her shamelessness. She said, “I’m sorry for wetting your top.”She hastily took out a napkin in an attempt to dry the spot. Zayn was speechless and said, “No need. The wind will dry it in a while.”It did not take long before the airplane landed. After disembarking, they could feel a frosty wind blowing their way. The cold could make one tremble because the temperature there was much lower than in Waltz City. Zayn was fit, so he did not mind as much. However, Shaelyn was not in such good shape, so she could not stand it. She sneezed and hastily wrapped her arms around Zayn next to her. Shivering, she told him, “It’s so cold.”“Hey, why are you hugging me? Put on a jacket or something if you’re cold,” said Zayn in a haste.
Zayn had very sharp senses that allowed him to spot numerous fowl and game within a few kilometers of them. There was even a huge tiger staring at them ferociously about 300 meters to his left. Other than that, there were many monkeys leaping about the trees above them. Perhaps it would be difficult for an ordinary person to leave this forest alive. Many people from the group expressed their excitement by sticking their heads out to look around. “The location for the Great Hunt this year is awesome. I’m sure that there are more wild animals to chase in a huge forest like this,” someone exclaimed excitedly. “That’s right. I heard that there are even many tigers and bears. It’s certainly going to be very interesting to hunt here!”“I believe that it’ll be more interesting than the previous year regardless!”“I wonder who’ll be the best hunter? I heard they have incredible rewards for this year’s winner.”“Why do you care who’s going to be the best hunter? It’s not going to b
The scene that emerged before them was a hotel that was neither elegant or classy. It was about ten stories tall and stood on a mountain in the middle of the forest, appearing rather out of place within its surroundings. “We’re here. Let’s get off the bus,” Shaelyn said somewhat excitedly. Zayn nodded and followed her. After they got off, they bumped into some acquaintances. A few of them were experienced businessmen in Waltz City. They were just ordinary people, yet they were brave enough to take part in a hunting competition like this which made Zayn admire them. Besides them, there were more customers that Zayn had encountered at Aeolus House’s auction previously. However, they did not come forward to greet Zayn when they saw him. Instead, they looked at him with pity, sympathy, and schadenfreude. Moreover, many were whispering to one another. “I couldn’t be mistaken, could I? That man standing next to Shaelyn is the chairman of Violet Vision Media Corp, Zayn Larson, right
Even after focusing on her, he could not tell if Shaelyn was putting on an act, so he chose to believe her in the end. She had no motive to hurt him.“It’s good that Xander is here. I would also like to meet him and solve the matter,” said Zayn nonchalantly. Shaelyn's eyes immediately widened in surprise. “You’ve lost your mind. Do you know who Xander Griffin is? He is the vice president of the Northmob Council! There’s no telling how strong he is, but he is shockingly powerful. I’ve lost count of how many skilled fighters he killed. Moreover, he is an intermediate master fighter already. Even if you’re also a master, you’ve only just reached that level, so how can you possibly match Xander?!”Zayn did not speak but smiled softly. All of a sudden, he sensed something and turned his head to look toward it. He could see a middle-aged man dressed in a gray suit. The man was tall and burly yet stood straight and had an aggressive expression. He had a pair of bright, piercing eyes tha
All of them could feel the solemn atmosphere and tension that comes before a fierce battle. Some of the less brave among them even felt suffocated, as if someone had their hands around their throats. It was a terrible sensation!After Xander made his presence known, his eyes did not move away from Zayn. They could tell he had a deep-seated hatred for Zayn and would certainly collect his blood debt. Many people were getting excited when they saw Xander stride toward Zayn. They tried not to blink as they watched both of them, for fear they would miss even the slightest bit of intrigue. In their circle, Xander was a big shot with an imposing reputation. He was a highly skilled master fighter and also the vice president of the Northmob Council. He had quite a few estates under his name too, so it could be said that he was superior when it came to wealth, capability, and status. Many people did not dare to offend him and only ever showed him the greatest respect.On the other hand
To many people, Xander was akin to a wild beast with incredibly powerful strength surging inside his body. A blow from him was earth-shattering!Though Zayn was impressive, he was very much Xander’s inferior. They were not on the same order of magnitude. After comparing him to Xander, many looked down upon Zayn and assumed he was already a dead man. There was no way he could survive. Zayn chuckled and said, “Why wouldn’t I have the courage to come? Besides tomorrow's Great Hunt, is there any other event that will allow me to beat you to death without any fear of an attack from the rear?” Upon hearing Zayn’s retort, Xander burst out laughing as if it were a huge joke. His laughter was unbelievably loud, as if a gale blasted from his throat and spread into the surroundings. It was worse than firecrackers! It was like explosives were constantly going off in his mouth. All the animals in the vicinity fled in fear. Flocks of birds perched in the trees quickly spread their wings and
Moments after Xander left, the crowd still could not find the courage to speak. Even though he was no longer there, the fear remained in their hearts because of his intimidating presence earlier. Nevertheless, they were excited more than anything else. It seemed the journey to take part in the Great Hunt would not be in vain.They traveled across a long distance to arrive at this huge forest deep in the mountains in the pursuit of thrills and sensations. Would they not be delighted to be able to witness a ferocious struggle between two equally powerful fighters?“Zayn, have you lost your mind? How could you talk back to Xander? Knowing his temperament, he’s surely going to slaughter you like an animal! What should we do now? Why don’t you head back to Waltz City right away?” She sighed exasperatedly. “Though, you don’t have the chance to do so anymore, do you? Once you’ve entered the place, you’re not allowed to leave until the end of the hunt. If you try to flee, you’ll be chased
A look of astonishment flashed through the middle-aged man’s eyes. He said, “He is genuinely gifted if he became a master fighter at such a young age. What a waste that he offended Xander. He’s fraught with ominous possibilities tomorrow.”The foreign woman said, “That’s not for certain. Perhaps Xander will not be a match for him and Zayn will prove himself by killing the man. From then on, Zayn will rise to fame and gain a strong foothold in the circle.”The older man seemed doubtful as he said, “Kill the man to prove himself? Heh-heh, he’s still far from Xander’s level.”At the mention of Xander’s name, the middle-aged man’s eyes were tainted with a tinge of dread.In the past, He engaged in a fight with Xander and lost. Away from the balcony, another man was watching from a towering tree nearby. He was young with strong, manly facial features. He had straight brows, bright piercing eyes, and a well-chiseled face, handsome and masculine. He stood steadily on a branch and cast h
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
