Chapter 2

Author: Ancient Calling
Finally, Chad burst out in anger and snarled.

"Why? All these years, I've given her everything she wanted!"

"Now as she files for divorce, can't I see her even just once?"

"Hahaha!" Jojo laughed coldheartedly.

"Are you kidding me? You gave everything Ms. Sachs wanted? What else can you do besides delivering lunch?"

"I'll be honest with you. Justin Long of Bloomington just proposed to Ms. Sachs yesterday."

"See for yourself. This is the video I recorded yesterday!"

Chad froze as he stared deadly at the screen of the phone in front of him in rage.

In the video, a charming man was proposing to Matilda on one knee. Matilda’s parents and younger brother were there too!

Jojo looked at Chad, gloating, and rubbed salt in his wound.

"Mr. Long's grandfather is a minister in Kennington. The Long family has an extraordinary status."

"The Long family has power and Ms. Sachs is loaded with wealth. They're a perfect match! Didn't you say you can give her everything?"

"Is your family background that great?"

"You're just a loser who can't even protect your sister!"

Chad clenched his fists and growled, "Shut up! Don't you talk about my sister!"

Jojo was startled. She did not expect a loser to shout at her.

Out of anger, she snatched over the lunch box Chad held in his hand and sneered,

"I'm sorry to bring this up but only you have the cheek to deliver lunch for Ms. Sachs!

"You think you're being romantic, don't you? Tell you what, Ms. Sachs despises the lunch boxes you sent over!"

"Whenever you send lunch over, Ms. Sachs would tell me to throw it away!"

Thud!

Jojo smashed the lunch box onto the ground and the dishes prepared wholeheartedly by Chad splattered around!

'This loser has had Matilda to himself for three years. No matter what, he must sign the divorce agreement!'

Then, Jojo impatiently stuffed the bank card in Chad's hand and urged,

"Hurry and sign! Ms. Sachs said the 1.4 million dollars, together with the villa you're staying in now should be a good compensation for you."

Chad glanced at the food splattered on the ground. Without uttering a word, he gritted his teeth and held his pen.

Before he signed, he looked over at the Bentley Bentayga parked on the side of the road.

It was the car used by Matilda. He knew she was in there.

Looking at Chad's inaction, Jojo exhaled and urged,

"Quick! You can't afford to pay if you cause any delay!"

Those words stirred up Chad's anger, almost breaking the pen in his hand.

At that instance, Chad finally understood that what Matilda wanted was different from what he thought.

He even thought he could grow old with Matilda.

Now, Matilda would heartlessly divorce him for the Long family who was wealthy and powerful!

Chad felt like his sacrifices for all those years went to waste.

What he did for Matilda was far more than what she had now!

Unfortunately, all he got in return was a divorce!

Suddenly, the window of the Bentley slowly lowered, revealing Matilda's aloof and alluring beauty.

At that moment, Chad and Matilda locked eyes. They did not utter a word but it felt like much was spoken.

Chad saw discontent, disappointment, and determination in Matilda's eyes!

He knew Matilda genuinely wanted the divorce!

'She does want it.'

Chad never thought that after giving his all to fulfill Matilda's wishes, one day he would become a stumbling block to her.

It turned out that his sacrifices were in vain!

At that moment, Chad held the pen so tight that his fingers turned pale. He uttered,

"I promised that I'll give you anything you wish for. If this is what you want, then, I'll sign it!"

    As Chad sat in meditation on Decaying Peaks, a faint, glowing white immortal crown slowly appeared behind his head. When that immortal crown manifested, a quake occurred everywhere outside Mount Causabour. The frequency of those tremors was extremely high, and everyone could clearly feel them. The vast area they covered included the entire Hacniane. It was as if some ancient seal in the vast sky had been triggered.Chad opened his eyes in shock amid his breakthrough, realizing that the impending heavenly punishment seemed to be directed at him and the millions of mystical beings beneath Mount Causabour.Suddenly, a thunderous voice erupted in the sky, as loud as a bolt of lightning:"Cut off the road to the heavens, seal the underworld; a red banner halts a million immortals, and a red star exterminates ghosts and demons!"Sever Yggdrasil, raise the grand array; a handful of Evergrow blocks the celestial river, and the vast multiverse bows to humanity!"By decree, this is a real

    Sir Holt anxiously looked up at the sky as the tribulation clouds suddenly began to churn violently.Crack! Crack! Crack!At that moment, the first bolt of heavenly punishment finally struck.However, that bolt of divine lightning fell upon the mirage of the Mystic Archive, where it disappeared without a trace. The entire Mount Causabour shook a few times, and everyone could feel a soothing sensation within the mountain.Anyone who felt this would experience a surge of confidence deep within, and any discomfort they felt in their bodies seemed to improve significantly.On Decaying Peaks, that sensation was even more pronounced, and more and more people began to manifest the immortal crown behind their heads. In just a few minutes, nearly everyone on Decaying Peaks, hundreds of people in total, had an immortal crown appear behind them.That included Flynn and Harvey, who were sitting on the outskirts of Decaying Peaks. They, too, had immortal crowns appear behind their heads.How

    Sir Holt and Zayan looked up at the sky with expressionless faces, though their hearts were in turmoil. Within the rolling clouds, faint traces of multicolored light shimmered.As time passed, the colorful lights appeared more frequently, as if gradually consuming the clouds."Such intense ascension light—there must be tens of thousands ascending!""There are probably more. The latest statistics show that 264,777 people have entered Mount Causabour!""Over 260,000? How did so many people get here?"Zayan looked at Sir Holt in shock, and Sir Holt turned his gaze toward the winding mountain road leading into the area."There are still many more people outside trying to get in, but the place is already so crowded that they can't fit."Zayan looked with concern toward the entrance to the mountain. "Won't those stuck on the road cause a disturbance?""They won't!" Sir Holt said with certainty. "Unless they're fools, they've probably already started meditating where they are. Even if

    Among the 250,000 people, quite a few were not actually autistic patients. After sleeping for two full days, Chad woke up and realized that possibility. He carefully considered the potential issues that might arise during the process and decided to issue an announcement."The treatment will begin shortly. Non-autistic patients are advised to leave the Mount Causabour area to avoid unnecessary complications."That announcement was broadcast three times through loudspeakers positioned throughout Mount Causabour. Finally, the loudspeaker voice declared, "The treatment will officially begin in one hour!"At the same time, Chad made his way to the Decaying Peaks, the summit of Mount Causabour, where an over-century-old pavilion stood.Entering the pavilion, Chad sat down in a meditative position. Soon, he noticed a dense crowd gathering around the pavilion, all sitting in meditation poses around him.As Chad glanced over those people, he recognized several familiar faces. The people ar

    Mount Causabour Medical Center, built halfway up Mount Causabour, was a sizable palace-style complex with three courtyards. The center was constructed along the mountain's slope, extending all the way to the base of the Decaying Peaks. Flynn and Harvey were placed in the innermost courtyard, suggesting that their grandfather, Fenton Cooper, likely knew some inside information but had not shared it with his grandsons.On that day, the Hacniane Cabinet issued several announcements. First, they created separate legislation for ability users and cultivators to regulate their powers. Second, they planned to designate special zones in each city for ability users and Mystics, separating them from ordinary people. Lastly, they urgently introduced the Sixteen Temporary Rules for Ability Users and Mystic Practitioners to regulate their behavior.Those announcements seemed like they were aimed at restricting ability users, but in reality, they were meant to reassure ordinary people, ensurin

    A massive leap in the realm could bring unimaginable fortune to the dragon vein, potentially altering Hacniane's fate.That was also Chad's grand gift to the two elders, using the sudden surge in the dragon vein's power to help Hacniane avoid the impending catastrophe triggered by the nuclear explosion of the firmament.Earlier that day, through Chad's Clairvoyant Eye, he saw Kennington shrouded in a faint gray-black mist. Chad did not know what it was but felt it resembled Evergrow, yet not quite the same.However, Chad was certain that accidents would surely happen if ordinary people were exposed to it in large quantities. As a Mystic, he could already feel its effects on his body.At that moment, Sir Holt got into the car, looking at Chad with a solemn expression. "Kid, give me the bottom line!"After careful consideration, Chad laid out his thoughts. Upon hearing them, Sir Holt began to tremble. According to Chad, he would need to mobilize at least 100,000 troops to ensure the
