Even if a family of traditional medicine practitioners were willing to sell their formula to Quinn, she might not necessarily be able to compete with Huey Corporation.Huey noticed her reaction and smiled gleefully.Sighing, he said, “We shouldn’t be enemies, Quinn. We can be friends or even partners.“If you’re willing to divorce Collins and marry me instead, I can promise you that Blizzard Group will be the leading company for cosmetics in South River City. Huey Corporation will not compete with you.“I’ll even offer the cosmetics formula to you as a betrothal gift on the day I marry you. What do you think?”He said this with sincerity. Anyone who did not know him would be easily convinced.However, Quinn was not stupid. She knew very well that all Huey wanted was her body.Moreover, the Harrigans were involved in the fire at Green Hills Orphanage. They were Quinn’s enemies.There was no way she would work with the enemy.Quinn replied coldly at this thought, “I'll never mar
Quinn had already closed her eyes in despair when she heard the commotion next to her ear.When she opened her eyes, she was immediately relieved and happy.Who else could this man be but Chase?Tears streamed down Quinn’s face.Chase helped her up. “Are you alright?”“I’m… I’m fine,” Quinn replied and she hugged Chase. Her petite body was trembling, and there was still fear in her eyes.Huey had almost gotten his way with her. Fortunately, Chase arrived right on time.“Miss Norris.” Elaine came running inside anxiously.“Stand to the side and leave the rest to me,” Chase comforted Quinn before turning to face Huey.There was a frosty look in Chase’s eyes that could send a chill down a person's back.It would have been catastrophic if he had arrived a second later.Even though he had no feelings for Quinn, she was still his woman.What sort of man would he be if he could not protect his woman?Chase went straight for Huey at the thought of this.The murderous look in his
“The Harrigans will never let you get away with this. You won’t be the only one killed; Quinn Norris will be dead too!”Quinn snapped out of it when she heard Huey’s words. She went to Chase and grabbed his hand. “Don’t be rash, Chase. Stay calm. You’ll die if you kill him.”Chase could not stand it when a woman cried. The murderous look in his eyes disappeared, and he flung Huey heavily to the side like an empty sack. “Get out. I’ll let you live a few more days on account of Quinn!”Huey’s bodyguards arrived quickly at the news and carried him out of the office.Employees crowded outside the office as everyone pointed at Chase and the others while discussing what happened.“If I’m correct, that person who got flung out is Huey Harrigan from the Harrigans.”“You’re right. It is him”“Miss Norris has a vicious man. Look at how badly Mr. Huey was beaten up. The Harrigans are going to go mad over this.”“They won’t just be mad. He has stirred up really big trouble. Even Miss Norri
Before Chase could say anything, Quinn dragged him out of Blizzard Group.“Where are you taking me?” Chase asked when they got into the car.“You’ll find out when we get there.”Quinn said coldly before driving away.Meanwhile, news of Huey getting crippled soon spread throughout the upper social circle of South River City.“Have you heard? Huey Harrigan was beaten to a cripple. I heard that he can’t use his genitals any longer.”“Gosh, is that true? He’s the eldest son of the Harrigans. Who could be brave enough to beat him to a pulp?”“It’s true. I’ve heard about it too. The person who crippled him is Quinn Norris’ kept man. Many people witnessed it.”“Has Quinn Norris gone crazy? How could she allow her lover to treat Huey Harrigan that way? She needs to remember that the Norrises are not as powerful as before.”“Hehe. Let’s wait and see. That guy who crippled Mr. Huey will be dead soon…”Many influential families were shocked by this news. It was a hot topic among them, a
Chase had been really violent with Huey.He had actually crippled Huey.However, Bianca smiled after that.Chase was the Medical Saint of Hell’s Gate who was known all over Bactria. He had the Dragon Soul Ring and was a man of noble status.What could the Harrigans do even if he had crippled Huey?Chase looked speechless as well.He had said before that the Harrigans were not a threat to him, but Quinn refused to believe him.A thought flashed in Bianca’s mind when she realized that Quinn had no idea who Chase really was. She suddenly smiled brightly and said, “Are you asking for my help right now, Quinn?”“Yes, I’m begging you to help him.” Quinn’s face was pale, and she continued with red eyes, “I’ll even kneel if you’re willing to save Chase.”She immediately fell to her knees.Bianca thought Quinn was joking, but she was serious. Bianca quickly stopped her and said, “Forget about it. I was just teasing you. It’s just a minor issue. I’ll help you out.”“Thanks, Bianca,” Q
The Coopers were shocked to hear the commotion outside.They did not expect the Harrigans to take action so quickly. The Harrigans were even threatening to destroy the Coopers.Everyone looked toward Chase. They wondered how he would react to this.Chase was sitting calmly as if nothing serious was happening.“Dad, are you still trying to protect this rascal now that the situation has escalated?” Simon grunted coldly as he said.Wesley said loudly, “Simon’s right, Dad. The Harrigans are not kidding with their threat. There’s no reason for the Coopers to make an enemy out of them.”While they were discussing this, John threatened them once more.“I’m giving you ten minutes to hand him over, William Cooper, or the Harrigans will attack right now!”Simon and the others turned pale. They wanted to continue talking William into handing Chase over.Chase finally said, “Mr. Cooper, those flies out there are too annoying. Can I please trouble you to chase them away?!”This man was cr
It was then that a stern voice was heard from behind the crowd of people. “Why are you doing this, Mr. Cooper?” The crowd parted, and a square-faced man in uniform came forward. He was a middle-aged man who had an air of authority about him.Hell’s Judge!Everyone turned pale at his appearance.This man was the bureau chief of the South River City Police Bureau, Hector Levenson!It was not because of his position that made people wary of him but his tactics.Rumor had it that Hector did things explosively. Anyone who fell into his hands would either end up dead or horribly tortured. He was like a judge from hell. His name struck fear in people.William’s expression changed as he said, “I didn’t expect the Harrigans to invite you here, Chief Levenson.”“You know how I am, Mr. Cooper. I’ve always been a principled man.”Hector said in a deep voice, “Let’s make things clear right here. This is a clash between two young men. There's no reason for the situation to escalate further
How dare he?!Chase was asking Hector to go in and see him?Hector was usually courteous despite being stern, but even he felt infuriated by this statement.He was the bureau chief of the South River City Police Bureau. Why should he be the one to see this young brat?However, Hector quickly noticed the purple token in front of him.It was as big as his palm, and nine dragons were carved on it. The token looked like a noble item.Hector stared at it for quite a while and could not figure it out.“Do you think you can scare us with this broken piece of wood, Cooper?” John laughed with disdain.Hector asked as well, “Why did you give this to me, Mr. Cooper?”“I have no idea either. You should figure this out on your own.” William smiled mysteriously and said, “Although, I would advise you to call your superior about this.”Hector frowned.William’s expression told him that this was not a simple token.“Alright. I’ll make the call.”Hector nodded and took out his phone as he
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
Chase watched as Fallon chatted with others and did not answer his question.He was furious with Fallon for ignoring him.Chase immediately used Thousand Eyes and Flowers, which he had learned from Jade. A firewall slowly burned behind him. The eye of the fire kept shooting flames as it slowly gathered more flames.The air around it was like an oven as the temperature shot up continuously."Step back."Chase warned Willow and the others.Willow and Walter were the only ones who knew about his sisters.They took several steps back to avoid the range of Chase's Thousand Eyes and Flowers. Willow and Walter showed Yara and Lisa images of Chase's sisters to explain the situation."These two sisters of Chase are really beautiful. The one in white looks adorable while the one in purple looks so dashing. Tsk, tsk. I had no idea he had such good fortune."Yara praised Olivia and Hanna when he saw their images.Willow and Lisa felt a little jealous. "They're all right."They replied w
They objected to Carla and Fallon's relationship from the very start.Both of them were happy to see them fight.If Carla could break up with Fallon, they might consider forgiving Carla for setting up the Severance Formation against them.After all, it would be good for her if she learned her lesson.Tack and Norm waited to see how Fallon would handle this.Norm knew nothing about this, but Tack was sure of one thing. Chase's sisters were in his hands.Besides them, one of Chase's seven sisters was in the hands of a Supreme Elder from the Nefarious Deity sect.Fallon had been wondering about Chase's sisters when Carla suddenly accused him of this. He could not help sighing quietly.What did he do to deserve this?"Would you believe me if I told you I don't know who his sisters are?" Fallon said bitterly."Believe you? If I'm right about this, Chase Collins is working with Willow because he wants to find his sisters. He already has the Nefarious Deity Sect locked down as the p
At the tournament venue, Chase watched as Yara held Willow's hand while Willow was holding Lisa's hand. All three of them came toward him in a line.He looked at them strangely.Yara had forgotten that she was dressed as a man, and it looked quite striking to be holding two women's hands.The spectators and Yara's die-hard fans burned with jealousy when they saw their ideal man being close to Willow, who should know better. They became agitated as all sorts of speculations crossed their minds. They started to curse at Willow."Who's that slut? How dare she seduce Yara?""Tear her apart right now! Go on! What are you waiting for?""Vixen! She's shameless. How could she be good enough for Yara when she's so ugly?""Tsk, tsk. Could she have drugged him? Why does Yara look excited? There's no way he could be interested in a mediocre woman like her when he's such a gorgeous specimen.""Look at the three of them running toward Chase Collins. Is this some sort of new play? Looks excit
Every powerhouse around them must have tried to sense it and come to the same conclusion as her.None of them dared to act rashly.All the top fighters from the sixth level have gathered there to quietly watch Chase, the Chosen One, enter the Holy Path.However, he told everyone that he was waiting for others.All of them had no choice but to wait with him.The people he was waiting for had finally arrived.Yara appeared hurriedly and entered the tournament ring along with Willow and Lisa."Who's that good-looking man?"Tack asked Fallon.Fallon and Carla looked at each other. He answered in exasperation, "That's Yara Fries, who is actually a woman."Tack and Norm did not believe him. Yara may have exceptional looks and could be viewed as a formidable character, but there was no doubt that he was a man.They exclaimed at the same time, "A woman?" "Yes. Yara possesses the phoenix bloodline. Every time Yara goes through the Rising, he will go through a gender change and his
