Chapter 41

Miranda felt a little guilty but refused to budge. "What? He broke the law and got arrested. How is that anyone else's fault?" Yvonne looked at her mother and shook her head. "You still don't understand just how powerful he truly is. If it really was you, you'd better apologize right now and clear things up. That way, the Willow family might still be able to survive this." "I did nothing. I had nothing to do with this!" Miranda said hurriedly, turning to leave at once. Regardless, Yvonne was certain that her mother had been the one to arrange for this to happen. She knew what her mother was like, and it was going to be almost impossible to get her to admit to her faults. Yvonne let out a long sigh, falling back in her seat limply. The Willow family was going to be done for. Wilbur put all these worries and troubles at the back of his head and drove to the morning market a few kilometers from the house. It was barely nine in the morning, and the market was still open. The

Wilbur smiled at her in response before driving off. Faye turned to look at the table full of food. She was starving just a second ago but had somehow lost her appetite. Wilbur drove for a short while and arrived at Sealake Island. Sealake Island was a resort villa that the Owens family had spent a few hundred million dollars on building. An island was built in the middle of a lake, equipped with hotels and entertainment spots. It was quite a popular tourist destination in Seechertown. Wilbur parked his car outside, then walked along the bridge. Just then, there were around a dozen people sitting in the square in the middle of Sealake Island. There was one chair in the middle, occupied by a man in his sixties. His eyes were bright, flickering with traces of spirit energy. He was the head of the Owens family, Jeremy Owens. Standing behind him were his two sons, Ian and John. On his left and right were the other two major clans of Seechertown, the Torrent clan, and the

Wilbur looked around him. All that could be seen was the crowd staring back at him, clearly unimpressed. It was as if they were certain he was destined to die. His gaze then landed on John. "That was a pretty decent aura blow. I suppose it's a little impressive." Gerard stood up at once, pointing at Wilbur. "How cocky! You're saying that an aura blow is only a little impressive? And what level would you happen to be at, hm?" "Me?" Wilbur shook his head. "I'm not too sure about that myself." Matt spoke up then. "That's quite a boast you just made. John, don't waste your time. Send him straight to hell." John smirked, slowly walking towards Wilbur. Wilbur frowned. "John, don't ruin your future like this." "You're out of your mind," John retorted angrily, and everyone else flared up in anger as well. It was clear that Wilbur had no respect for the three clans at all, daring to say something like that in such a dire situation. All at once, the air was filled with various

Chapter 44

Compared to John, Jeremy was a lot stronger and more skilled than his son. His aura alone was something that John was not capable of. The sight of Jeremy's powers led the three clans to burst into cheers once again. Wilbur's expression remained unchanged as he silently looked at Jeremy. Jeremy's eyes were bloodshot with rage. He leaped into the air, pouncing at Wilbur like a hawk. As he landed, countless afterimages of his punches appeared in the air, raining down on Wilbur. All at once, the air began to whip and grow misty with smoke and sand. Wilbur kept one hand behind his back, the other making a series of patterns in the air as he countered Jeremy's every attack, disintegrating each blow into nothing. Jeremy was furious. He landed on the ground, launching attack after attack at Wilbur. His punches barreled toward Wilbur from all directions, but Wilbur still managed to neutralize them with only one hand. Jeremy's fierce attacks had not sent Wilbur a single step back

Chapter 45

Just as Jeremy's words rang through the air, Ian was seen walking up to him holding a wooden box. Ian got on his knees, passing the box to Jeremy above his head. Jeremy opened the box with a wave of his hand. He took out a scroll and flicked it open in one swift move. The scroll contained a painting of an elder clad in long robes. There was a sword on the elder's back as his robes billowed in the wind, looking extremely ethereal. At the same time, a powerful pressure surged out from the painting. It enveloped the air, filling it with an unspeakable pressure. Just then, Gerard got to his feet in shock. "Legend has it that the Owens family owns a portrait of an ancient ancestor who holds the power of an elite cultivator! It's said to be the clan jewel. Is this it?" Gerard himself had lost a little composure. It was hardly his fault, after all. The painting was a legendary treasure, and to witness it filled Gerard's chest with awe. Matt was in shock as well, shaking as he st

Chapter 46

Just then, Jeremy's face was white as a sheet. He could not stop coughing up blood, his expression one of disbelief and shock. A second later, Gerard and Matt could finally raise their heads. They saw Wilbur completely unharmed, and their chests lurched in shock. How could this be? Wilbur was standing right there, and there was nothing for them to believe otherwise. Just then, the scroll Jeremy was holding burst into flames all of a sudden. It disintegrated to ashes in no time, disappearing from sight. Jeremy was in shock, before yelling, "Ancient ancestor! Ancient ancestor!" Wilbur frowned. "Stop yelling. That burst of energy was the last of your ancestor, but you insisted on exhausting it. This outcome is inevitable." Jeremy gritted his teeth as he glowered at Wilbur. "You destroyed my clan jewel." Wilbur's expression grew cold. He took a big stride, stepping right up to Jeremy. Wilbur grabbed him by the neck and lifted him into the air. The Owens family was in sh

Chapter 47

However, Jeremy bowed to Wilbur deeply. "I thank you for your kindness, Senior, and I deeply regret my actions. Let me send you a gift as an apology." "Oh?" Wilbur was a little surprised. Jeremy looked around him. "The Owens family owns this island. I've underestimated and offended you. I'd like to offer you this island as a gift as an apology." "You're giving this island to me?" Wilbur had honestly not expected this, and he looked at Jeremy in surprise. "This place must cost good money." Jeremy bowed again. "I'm sure money is hardly a problem to you, Senior. This is just a little gift from me, I hope you'll accept it." Wilbur fell silent for some time before saying slowly, "Since you offered, don't mind if I do." "Thank you for accepting this, Senior. I'll arrange for the transfer of the property as soon as possible. It'll be yours very soon," Jeremy said. Wilbur nodded, then turned to leave. Jeremy called out behind him, "From this day on, the Owens family shall take

Faye never brought it up because Wilbur had never mentioned it as well. Knowing what to say and not say at the right time was the best quality one could have as a subordinate, friend, or even lover. Faye smiled at Wilbur's words. "Sealake Island's worth at least five hundred million dollars. That's a pretty sweet deal you got there." "Well, it came as a surprise. I wasn't expecting anything," Wilbur said with a smile. It was only then that Faye finally stopped worrying. The two of them chatted as they finished off the food before Faye went to do the dishes. Wilbur sat on the couch and lit a cigarette. He stared at Faye's back in the kitchen, lost in his own thoughts. Soon, Faye finished tidying up and came to the living room. Just as she was about to sit down, she slipped and fell down in Wilbur's direction. "Oops!" Faye cried out, falling onto Wilbur. Wilbur was startled for a moment before reaching out to pull one of Faye's arms so that she was seated back on the co

Chapter 49

Wilbur saw that it was a call from Nancy and picked it up at once. "Wilbur, where are you? Do you need me to pick you up?" Nancy's voice came ringing down the line. Wilbur said at once, "Oh, that's alright. I'll be right there." "Great! Be on time, will you?" Nancy said, hanging up after that. Wilbur chuckled. To be honest, he was pretty happy to be able to see his old classmates after so long. He did not have many friends, and it was hard to still be in touch with his classmates after so long. He got in his car and drove to Winston Entertainment. Winston Entertainment was a recreational establishment with food and entertainment services, considered to be rather popular in Seechertown. Half an hour later, Wilbur arrived at the place. He entered the hall and saw Nancy waiting on the couch as if she had been waiting just for him. Nancy saw Wilbur as well and got to her feet at once with a smile. "Come on, everyone's here." Wilbur nodded, following Nancy to one of the ro

Chapter 50

Cindy's expression was nothing but arrogant, clutching onto Edward's arm as the both of them sat down. Edward had a high and mighty air about him as well. Wilbur frowned, irritation flaring in his chest. It was clear that Cindy had brought her boyfriend along just to show off. It was a gathering, not a show-and-tell. Just then, Cindy smiled and said, "Come on, guys, stop staring! Edward might be someone of status, but he's my boyfriend. There's no need to act so awkwardly." The words sounded polite, but the implication was less so. Everyone was speechless. In the end, someone got up and poured everyone a glass of wine. Those who did not drink got tea instead. After that, Ryan Swan, the previous class monitor, raised his glass. "It's a rare occasion that all of us are free enough to get together. Let's drink to that. The night's still young." Everyone raised their glasses, and so did Wilbur. Nancy and a few female classmates only drank tea. After the first drink, everyon
