"How was it, master? Are you satisfied?" Fred asked Flynn politely once the men had scrambled out."As long as the demolition goes smoothly, it's fine. This house was entrusted to us, after all. Not offering any demolition compensation would be disrespectful to the souls beneath the ground," Flynn replied, trying to sound profound.He felt a rush of satisfaction, though his words carried a hint of pretense. Inside, he thought, "This just feels amazing."Fred nodded thoughtfully at Flynn's words, then after a moment, he spoke up again, "Master, I called my girlfriend, and she agreed to talk with me. What should I do now?"Even asking Flynn about personal matters like this showed how much Fred trusted Flynn's guidance."Do you know where your girlfriend lives?" Flynn pondered for a moment before responding seriously."No, I don't.""Boss, our finance department has her ID information!" The bodyguard, quick-witted as ever, immediately remembered a useful lead."Oh, right!" Fred ex
Bald's eyes flickered, perhaps recalling his previous beatings. However, he quickly pulled out a document and waved it in the air, shouting with confidence, "The contract's signed! You're still not leaving? Do you want another beating?""Tomorrow! We'll leave tomorrow!" Seeing the document, Flynn made up his mind and stood firm."No! Leave now! And you, little girl, I'll have you under me soon," Bald said, leering at Celeste in a vile manner as his eyes lingered on her sensitive areas.This look enraged Flynn, whose youthful vigor surged."Get lost!" Celeste yelled angrily, puffing out her chest.However, Bald suddenly lunged forward and grabbed Celeste tightly in his arms."Let me go!" Celeste screamed, struggling without success. Bald just grinned wickedly."Brat, this time I've got time for you. I won't stop until I have you," he sneered, his hand already groping Celeste's chest."Help!" Celeste cried out in desperation."You're dead!" Flynn swung his stick, smashing it dow
"How are you feeling?"As soon as Chase opened his eyes, he saw a beautiful figure above him. He realized he was lying in Quinn's arms, and she was looking down at him with concern."I'm fine. How long has it been?" Chase asked quickly, becoming aware that he had left the other world. He felt like he had been there for days and hoped it would not have affected the real world too much as it concerned Bianca's safety.Reflecting on the last moments before he left that world, Chase still found it hard to believe. In the blinding light, he thought he saw a figure emerging, one that looked eerily familiar. It matched the silhouette hidden deep within his consciousness.It was impossible. Chase could not believe it, yet the sight was undeniable. The figure in the light seemed to be speaking to him, lips moving without a sound reaching him.Chase had a strong sense that this person was trying to communicate with him."What do you mean, how long has it been? You set up the soundproof bar
As Chase sized up the man, the man was also scrutinizing Chase. He seemed surprised to see such a young pair of men and women. His gaze then moved past them and landed on Trevor and the others. His expression immediately hardened as he spoke."Who are you? Why have you intruded into Bactria?" he demanded, his tone filled with suspicion.Seeing this, Chase realized the man had misunderstood. It was not entirely his fault—Trevor and the Sands clearly looked like Eastern Oceanians, which instantly raised red flags.In Bactria, any sighting of Eastern Oceanians typically aroused hostility."Sir, I'm Chase Collins. Don't get the wrong idea; these three are my servants," Chase quickly explained. He only bothered to clarify because he figured the man was likely a compatriot.Upon hearing Chase introduce himself, the man was taken aback. It was obvious he had heard of the name before."What? You say you're Chase Collins? How can you prove it?" the man questioned skeptically."What do yo
As soon as Chase landed in Capital City, he received a call from Scott."Hey, Scott. What's up?" Chase answered the call without any formalities."Chase, is it really you? Hugh just called to confirm, and I couldn't believe it. I didn't expect you to actually be back. Where are you now?" Scott's voice came through the phone."Capital City.""What? That's fast." Scott was immediately surprised. It had only been a short while, and Chase was already in Capital City. With speed like that, it was no wonder he did not bother with taking flights anymore."Scott, do you need something or not? If not, I'll hang up. I'm busy right now.""Oh, I just wanted to confirm if it was really you who showed up at the border. Now that I know it's you, that'll be all. But Chase, be careful now that you're back in Capital City. The Weber family is still looking for you."Scott gave him a quick warning."Alright, I got it."Seeing that Scott did not have much else to say, Chase hung up and headed str
Being pulled along by Hannah, Chase had no choice but to keep up with her pace. Did she say her mentor? Had the miracle doctor Skylar returned? Chase suddenly remembered who Hannah's mentor was.Deep inside Herb Hall, Chase finally met the miracle doctor—a small, scruffy old man. Seeing Hannah leading a stranger straight into his room, Skylar's face showed clear displeasure."Hannah, you're still unmarried, and you're holding hands with a man? What kind of behavior is this? Let go of him!" Skylar's tone carried a mix of anger and affection."Master, this is my brother, Chase, the one I told you about. And this is my sister, Quinn," Hannah said as she introduced them, releasing Chase's hand."This is my master, the renowned miracle healer, Skylar Lyman.""Greetings, Master Skylar," Chase and Quinn greeted respectfully."So, you're Chase?""You've heard of me?""Hmph, you're the young troublemaker who's turned all of Capital City upside down. It's hard not to know about you.""I
Skylar's words immediately grabbed the attention of Chase and the others, who leaned in closer to listen.True to his reputation as a miracle doctor, Skylar had discerned that Bianca's affliction was the Dragon Song Physique without Chase even needing to explain. Even more impressively, he had identified a method to expel it in such a short time."Master, what is the method?" Chase asked when Skylar did not immediately continue.Quinn, who was equally anxious, spoke up as well. "Master, please help her."Even Hannah could not hold back, pleading, "Master, please save her for my sake."Seeing the hopeful expressions of the three, Skylar decided not to delay any further and began to explain in detail."There is a way, but given the current state of the world, it is impossible to accomplish.""What do you mean by that, Master Skylar?" Chase asked, puzzled."To expel the Dragon Song Physique from this girl, the only solution is to find the world's sole True Dragon. The Dragon Song
Skylar was unexpectedly asking the two women to leave."They're both my sisters. If you have something to say, Master Skylar, just say it directly," Chase responded firmly, indicating that his sisters were not outsiders.Hearing this, Skylar hesitated for a moment before finally speaking. "I never imagined that the one with the most True Dragon bloodline would be you. As expected of the Collins family's descendant.""Master, you know the Collins family? You know who I am?" Chase asked curiously."Chase Collins, the last descendant of the Collins family in Capital City. How could I not know? I even held you when you were born, but I never thought that over 20 years would pass so quickly, and you'd grow up like this," Skylar said with a hint of nostalgia on his face."Master, did you know my father?" Chase quickly inquired upon hearing Skylar's words."I not only knew your father, but I also knew most of the Collins family," Skylar said slowly, gazing at Chase."Please tell me mor
Yara initially wanted to explain that she was actually a woman—what did Willow even mean by "closeted romantic feelings"?Then she remembered her current male appearance and that no one except Tack and Chase knew her true gender and bloodline.Of course, she did not know that her private conversation with Chase had been eavesdropped on by Carla. All four masters from the Evil Shadow Sect and Nefarious Deity Sect were fully aware of her female identity.She was about to find another excuse when Chase spoke first, "She's actually a woman."He simply had enough of Willow and Lisa's gazes.To settle this issue once and for all, Chase had to sacrifice his teammate. "She told me she awakened the Phoenix Deity's bloodline. Phoenixes change gender with each rebirth."The phoenix is inherently unified. So the Yara they're seeing now is essentially hermaphroditic. Which gender she displays depends on her mood and will."Chase spilled Yara's secrets completely like beans. Yara stopped pret
Willow and the others were stunned after hearing this."It seems this is indeed the Holy Path, the place where the Light Divine Pearl slumbers."It's also the battlefield between the evil god Klondike and the 12 Primal Treasures, the guardians of this universe," Chase said solemnly, understanding the situation after hearing Yara's explanation and recalling his previous encounter with the Light Divine Pearl."Weren't they fighting in outer space?" Willow asked, confused."This is a battlefield specially created by the 12 Primal Treasures using their spatial abilities. It's not merely a simple planet," Yara explained.It appeared that her awakened memories were substantial.Chase looked at her thoughtfully. "So, there might be other primal treasures and ancient races existing here?""That's right," Yara confirmed."I wish I could be that strong too," Walter said somewhat enviously as he stroked the ancient dragon's bones."Hey, these dragon bones could be used to make weapons, r
Chase scanned the surrounding light pillars for potential dangers while answering Yara."Earth? So you really are a visitor from another world! I knew your background was extraordinary!" Yara exclaimed excitedly.From her perspective, if Chase was a visitor from another realm, his actions made perfect sense."Is your homeland like an immortal realm? Full of powerful beings who can move mountains and part seas?" she asked enthusiastically."Uh," Chase felt a headache coming on. "Actually, most people there are ordinary. Those like me are just a minority. Don't overthink it."After speaking, he made a gesture to silence everyone and pointed upward. The light pillar seemed to reach its end. Their destination was a planet!Chase had seen plenty of footage from astronauts landing. This situation resembled those scenes closely.Even so, how would they land? Would the light pillar deliver them directly to the surface?If the light pillar disappeared in the atmosphere, Chase's martial
Universal Element Priest looked at Clive, who had lost his sense of self, and shook his head helplessly.He used his vital energy to contain the poison and focused his mind. Spiritual light erupted around him as rows of mystical symbols appeared. Spiritual energy gathered instantly, churning like waves.Even the nearby teleportation door was affected."Boundless Heaven and Earth, Borrowing the Power of the Cosmos! Go!" As the command left his mouth, space-time fluctuated and distorted.Clive, who was on the flying vessel, sensed the danger. He suddenly accelerated toward him. His tentacles extended rapidly like an octopus, attempting to grab the gradually blurring Universal Element Priest.At that moment, the teleportation door suddenly burst with light, and countless light pillars radiated outward. They not only enveloped Universal Element Priest and his two companions but also wrapped around almost everyone in the arena below.Universal Element Priest discovered with horror t
Ford had always been a carefree person, but today his expression seemed off!"It was such an important match, and you were in the semifinals. How could there be no recording? Ford, don't try to deceive me!" Wren sternly warned Ford."If you deceive me, you'll get a spank—" Before he could finish, Ford covered his mouth. "Father, stop! I'll show you when we get back!"Compared to being spanked, Ford preferred letting his father see his strange cries during the match."Holy Lord Wren, I have a recording of your son's battle with Chase. Would you like it?" an unfamiliar female voice called out."Who's this troublemaking woman? When everyone else remained silent, why did she have to make herself conspicuous?"If I'm humiliated because of this, you'll regret it later, lady!"Ford's mind churned like tumultuous waves. He turned to see it was Tiana, the Saintess of Emerald Lake Holy Land!"I don't recall ever offending you," he thought bitterly.This was problematic. Though he was
Ford naturally would not mention that the fire-element Thousand Eyes and Flowers technique he had blocked earlier was considerably weaker than the current display.This was the art of conversation."That's not even his ultimate move?" Wren asked in surprise."No. He learned this from watching the Saintess Jade from Modest Lady Holy Land during their battle. He simply replaced it with his own fire-system vital energy and fireball technique," Ford answered with some admiration.It was well known that as the most talented Saint since the founding of Sky Dragon Holy Land, Ford typically mastered most techniques on his first attempt.He essentially memorized secret manuals after just one reading and was considered one of the most intelligent and insightful dragons in history.However, even for top-tier techniques like the Thousand Eyes and Flowers, one would certainly need some practice time to master it.Yet Chase had fought Jade just once, and seen her use the technique only once.
Chase stepped forward, standing in midair, and swept his right hand.The fire-element Thousand Eyes and Flowers technique activated, sending countless extreme fireballs like a rain of bullets toward Fallon and his group.The quantity, speed, and power far exceeded his previous attacks, yet Chase only utilized fifty 50% of his vital energy!Fallon's group furrowed their brows, their bodies tense as if facing a formidable enemy. The ancient Nefarious Spirit Giant Ape manifested behind them, crossing its arms in a defensive posture.Fallon's vital energy circulated at extreme speed, pushing its strength to the limit. His normally transparent vital energy shield became faintly visible, like glass emitting light.Carla muttered incantations as wisps of green smoke emerged, with faint green light circling around her body.Seeing this, Tack and Norm understood: Fallon and Carla were not deceiving them but were genuinely using their full strength to counter Chase's attack!The two were
"No way? Chase actually had another trick up his sleeve—he can still win the championship?""Tsk, tsk. Such skill and courage. Now he dares to challenge two city lords and their helpers alone. Those two dressed in red and green were also fighting toe-to-toe with the city lords earlier. This is going to be quite a show!""Damn it, it's like a furnace in here! Everyone, spread out unless you want to become roasted pigs!""Who are you calling a pig?""That's just a metaphor!"...Chase was shocked by his own attack. Yes, he surprised himself.He had only used 50% of his vital energy, intending to intimidate his opponent while testing the strength of this top villain from the nether realm.To others, the wall of fire appeared to rise gradually. In his perception, however, it manifested instantly.The gradual rise was because the power was too great, expanding bit by bit to accommodate more fire eyes.His control seemed fine, so why did it feel like he could not stop?After exami
Carla thought Chase must have an amazing sense of understanding and enlightenment. He was able to see through the essence of the opponent's technique every time he fought and used it. He was a genius.Facing Chase directly made her understand what real intimidation felt like.She was also Chase's target as she was standing next to Fallon.As the top mind and soul cultivator in the nether realm, Carla knew that there was no escape from Chase.Chase would immediately react the moment she made a slight movement.Carla had never felt such pressure before.It was terrifying.Fallon's heart sank when facing Chase.He had been careless.Chase was harder to deal with than Carla, Tack, and Norm combined.Fallon knew how powerful Carla was.The Evil Shadow Sect was good at using the mind and soul in fights, but they were not powerful enough when it came to direct attacks. The Nefarious Deity Sect was good at body refinement, corpse refining, and using Nefarious Deity to strengthen the
