Just when she was wallowing in her sorrow, a plump young woman sidled up to her and piped up curiously, “Lindsay? What’s with the long face? I mean, look at how many people are here for your homecoming party!”“It’s lame. The only guy I want to see isn’t actually here anyways.”Lindsay’s companion widened her eyes before crying out in surprise, “Hold up, sis. Are you… crushing on someone? Oh. My. God! Who is he?”Those who were within earshot were just as bemused and in disbelief.The truth was, Lindsay Young was no ordinary woman—she was the eminent Young family’s precious little sweetheart, a modern-day aristocrat whose standing was superior to every single trust-fund kid at the entire party!She was a member of one of Rheasia’s most premier noble families. Wealth was far from their only asset; they were also at the top of the social ladder, and had for decades contributed plenty to Rheasia’s economic growth. It was also a known fact that Youngs were highly-decorated soldiers an
Lindsay sighed with her as she propped her regret-fraught face with the thick of her palm, “Uh, you should have told me he was! God, if only I knew—I would have been on my knees when I saw him! Hell, I wouldn’t have offended him at all! Damn it!” she moaned, “I’ve been visiting Violet Vision Media Corp these past few days, but man, he’s just not interested in seeing me ever again, is he?”Allana let out a long sigh and joined her friend’s pity party. She was submerged in her own tide of melancholy and regret. Their despondency made them stick out like sore thumbs, so much so that they bothered the other attendants around them.Meanwhile, Zayn and the rest of Faron’s team had arrived at the hotel’s grand banquet hall. He had attended many upper-class parties, so Zayn had no trouble keeping his cool. Faron and Zachary, on the other hand, were visibly a little bit more shaken up now that they were in the presence of the affluent—being amongst these people made them both excited yet also
It was obvious that Zachary’s doom actually originated from Faron. It prompted Zayn to cast his keen eyes over the latter, which made him realize that Faron’s aura was darkening at a visible rate as well. It became more and more evident that the real epicenter of Zachary’s misfortune was Faron, and that Zachary had fallen victim to the collateral damage.From the looks of it, Zachary’s life was originally on the line—to the extent where his death was highly plausible—that evening because of whatever machinations Faron would eventually undertake. However, his fate had now been twisted—Zayn’s appearance had diverted its course.Things were getting interesting.Faron did not appreciate the way that Zayn looked at him, like a dubious bloodhound sniffing out evil, so he harrumphed and snorted, “What are you looking at, moron? You’re as dumb as an oaf! You’re here to act as my bodyguard, you hear me? No talking, and definitely no looking around!”Zayn flashed him a smirk and said nothing
Lindsay Young seemed to be glowing.There was a passion that burnt in Faron’s gaze as soon as he laid his eyes upon Lindsay. Lindsay was the heiress of the Young family, who had an extremely prestigious status. If he could latch on to Lindsay, he would not need to worry about money for the rest of his life!Zachary was stunned by Lindsay’s beauty, but that made him only feel more inferior. He was well aware that he came from poverty, so there was a huge disparity between him and the elegant heiress born with a silver spoon in her mouth. Naturally, he felt like he was nowhere enough for her.Soon, however, everyone’s eyes fluttered to the fine woman standing next to Lindsay. It was none other than Allana Owen. One could tell with a single glance that Allana was much more beautiful than Lindsay!Faron’s breath was taken away—he could not take his eyes off Allana once he saw her. He was not the only one who reacted in such a manner. Many of the attendants had the same reaction as we
Zachary had never expected that Faron would put the blame on him because he had just witnessed Faron molesting the woman with his own two eyes. At once, Jameson looked towards Zachary with eyes filled with rage. He waved his huge hand. “Come and beat this b*st*rd up!”“It wasn’t me, it really wasn’t me…” Zachary panicked. He pointed at Faron, and he was on the verge of exposing him when Faron clasped the back of his neck and pinned him to the ground. He lowered his voice and said, “Zachary, you have to take the blame for me today! I’ve never mistreated, not once. If I hadn’t taken you under my wing, would you still be who you are today?”Zachary was stunned. He looked at Faron incredulously, “Faron, I did plenty of meritorious services over the years too.”Faron glared at him and threatened menacingly, “I don’t care. You have to take the blame for me today, or else, your little sister…”Zachary’s entire body shook at once. He stared at Faron, clenching his teeth in anger. He had
Faron could feel a lingering fear tug at his heart. Fortunately for him, he was quick enough to put the blame on that idiot Zachary. Otherwise, it would have been him who was going to get his hands chopped off.Zachary was completely terrified. He was constantly shouting for help from Faron in the hopes that Faron would save him, yet Faron refused to give him the light of day. He was extremely terrified as he watched the burly man approach him with the carving knife. In fact, he had even begun to lose hope.Over on the other side, Lindsay furrowed her brows ever so slightly upon witnessing the scene. However, she did not stop the commotion because she hated hooligans who molested women as well. Moreover, she witnessed bully cases all the time, so she did not find it to be a problem at all. On the contrary, it was Allana who could not stand another second of it. She turned away because she could not bring herself to watch. Zayn witnessed the scene detachedly from the crowd. He had
Zachary had almost lost his footing from fear. He had never been as scared as he was in his entire life. Zayn’s remark from earlier had offended all of the rich kids present. He was doomed—he was so doomed that the situation could no longer be solved with just a chopped hand anymore!He regretted it very much now. He would not have meddled with the matter by bringing Zayn along had he known about the incident that would be taking place tonight. He was under the original assumption that he would only be giving Zayn a helping hand, yet he did not expect that he would be putting Zayn at risk instead!In his eyes, he was certain that Zayn had lost it because he had recently hit rock bottom, and that was why Zayn had such an immeasurable amount of bravery.Zayn was not conceited at all really. If you asked him, the rich kids that were viewed as these so-called big shots were but a bunch of weaklings. Even if they were supported by the seniors of their families, they were all still weakli
However, it was also at that exact moment when a loud shout was heard, “Stop it! Whoever dares disrespect my idol, I, Lindsay Young will be the first to condemn that person!”Upon saying that, Lindsay sprinted over and violently shoved anyone who stood in her way. A few men were caught off guard, and ended up falling to the ground.They were initially furious, but they quickly swallowed their anger the moment they realized that it was Lindsay’s doing. They could only hold back obediently—not because they were cowards, but because Lindsay was a woman they could not afford to offend. Lindsay’s way of making an appearance was so overbearing that she instantly caught the attention of everyone around her, and Jameson was no exception. He was stunned for a moment as well. Soon afterwards, he furrowed his brows and made his way towards Lindsay. He faced her as he asked inquisitively, “Lindsay, what are you trying to do here?”Meanwhile, Lindsay had already made her way out of the crowd.
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
