Semua Bab The Consortium's Heir : Bab 1021 - Bab 1030

Darius slowly extended his arm and placed his palm against the wall ahead. The countless screaming souls that bared their teeth from earlier materialized before him. Their eyes lit up with greed like they wanted something from him. Darius knew they were after his body. They wanted to take it over and return to life. He refused to fulfill their wish. His lips spread into a thin smile that didn't quite meet his eyes. Darkness shrouded his gaze. It gave off a frosty exterior. It was as if his presence had set off a blizzard in the space around them. Overflowing black life force spilled from his palm. This caused the words on the wall to stop distorting. The words seemed to have grown eyes, all focusing on Darius. It took several seconds before Darius realized he hadn't hallucinated it. The eyes existed. Soon enough, the words crept out of the walls, revealing that they were actually an enormous clew of wriggling worms."Oh!" Teivel exclaimed. "Those are leeches that originate from West

The cultivator smiled in a scornful way. He moved his arm. The remainder of the dust that hadn't merged to form his body flew to his palm.Darius smirked at this and cracked his neck. "Your attack looks scary. But, I only need to look closer to see that it only seems that way. There's no bite to your bark." He shook his head and clicked his tongue.The cultivator had never imagined being mocked this way. He sucked in a deep breath, then exhaled heavily, causing the dust to swirl around the room.Darius frowned, feeling disgusted when he remembered how the dust had come to be. His expression darkened. Without any hesitation, he stretched out an arm and channeled his black life force toward the cultivator.The cultivator looked shocked. "How are you able to use this type of life force? Were you among those who betrayed us?" Then, he scowled. "I don't care who you are. You shouldn't have betrayed us. If you've turned your back on us, you're no longer one of our own. I don't think it

"I've been here long enough, yet you haven't made your move," said Darius.The Consciousness smirked at him. "Oh, you have no idea how much I want to take you down. Alas, it looks like I'm no match for you. So, you should enjoy your life here!" He snapped his fingers.However, he was too late. As soon as his words fell, black life force seeped out from the walls around them and circled him. The Consciousness' own life force immediately disappeared—it didn't even manage to get to the corridor.Darius stood where he was. When he didn't see any major changes, he walked toward The Consciousness. The Consciousness could see Darius approaching and was horrified to find he couldn't move his body at all.His eyes turned crimson. As soon as he met Darius' gaze, his body collapsed to the floor. The crimson in his eyes immediately disappeared. When this happened, the black life force that had been circling the man suddenly exploded with a bang.Darius raised an eyebrow and watched as the dust s

Darius looked at "Hansley" coldly. "When did the real Hansley die?""He's not dead," The Consciousness rasped. He smiled stiffly. "Not dead in the way you humans would think, anyway." He cackled.Darius gave him a scornful and disdainful look. "You look like an idiot, and your greed is showing." He smiled coldly.The Consciousness' breathing hitched, but he soon calmed down. "Why aren't you attacking me? Weren't you raring to go earlier? Make your move!" As soon as his words fell, the walls started cracking again. An ugly look crept onto Hansley's face, which was currently under The Consciousness' control. "What the hell are you doing, Darius? You're destroying my home!"Darius raised an eyebrow. "I don't think I've ever met anyone as foolish as you. Have you forgotten that this is exactly what I was doing before you showed up? I stopped only because you told me to, not because I was afraid."The building had yet to collapse, but there was an increasing number of cement blocks landing

Darius frowned. He stopped and turned to look at the reporters. "I've been patient enough thus far, especially since you tried to blame me for things I didn't do and drive a wedge between me and the developer of Solaris Estate. Still, I pretended not to hear any of that and left without saying anything. If you insist on harassing me, I can't guarantee you'll like the outcome." He smiled perfunctorily, then turned and walked away.The reporters stopped and exchanged looks, caught off guard by Darius' words. As far as they knew, no one had threatened reporters like this before because the general public would believe anything they published. Even if their articles were based on total lies, the public would believe them. This was why none had dared offend them throughout their careers.Now, however, Darius had done just that. The reporters' eyes gleamed menacingly as they started thinking of ways to smear Darius' reputation when writing their articles. Suddenly, Darius turned around and
