Frederick's eyelids fluttered open, revealing a flicker of exhaustion.Mr. Faith's voice was laced with concern as he inquired, "Young man, why did you shoulder such a burden? I could have carried this pain alone, there was no need to share it with you."A faint smile touched Frederick's lips. "Mr. Faith, your compassion shines brightly. I couldn't stand by and watch you suffer in silence."Mr. Faith's astonishment deepened as he observed Frederick's unwavering composure. "But young man, you absorbed the entirety of the dark energy within me and yet remain unaffected?"Even a seasoned cultivator like Mr. Faith had nearly succumbed to suppressing the dark energy. Yet, Frederick, so young and inexperienced, had subdued it with apparent ease. Frederick merely offered a cryptic smile. "Let's just say I possess a technique capable of suppressing such forces. Mr. Faith, your unwavering fortitude is truly commendable. You've used your cultivation to suppress this evil force for years.

With Varek's level of cultivation, jumping into the sea posed no threat of drowning.A few minutes later, he climbed back onto the cruise, dripping wet and furious. His bare chest was heaving, his clothes were soaked, and his eyes burned with rage toward Frederick. Varek's empty hands confirmed he hadn't found the Violet Spirit Vessel.It wasn't his fault; finding it in the vast ocean was an impossible task."You ungrateful brat! Mr. Faith gave you his most precious possession, and you tossed it into the sea! This is blatant disrespect! I'll kill you for this!" Just as Varek lunged, Mr. Faith snapped out of his shock and stopped him.He turned to Frederick and asked, "Why did you do that? You know how valuable the Violet Spirit Vessel is. It can absorb dark energy and help countless people."Frederick calmly replied, "Indeed, it can. But without the Vessel, do those dark energies simply vanish?"Mr. Faith frowned, not following Frederick's logic."The world won't change beca

"Please, Mr. Faith. Tell me what happened back then so I can learn who murdered my father," Scarlett pleaded.20 years ago, Draco was a prominent figure in Jenaire City, but he met a sudden and violent end in a restaurant.When Tyger arrived with young Scarlett, they found only Draco's lifeless body, poisoned with parasitic venom. Yet, Draco's face was peaceful and devoid of any trace of pain or anger.Tyger was experienced in such matters, and he deduced that Draco must have encountered Mr. Faith, the Sacred General known for easing the suffering of the deceased. After much investigation, it was confirmed that Mr. Faith had indeed been in Jenaire City during that time. Though Tyger longed to ask about the events of that day, he knew someone of Mr. Faith's stature was not easily accessible.For years, Tyger and Scarlett collected every scrap of information they could about Mr. Faith, learning only that he suffered from chronic ailments. They believed they would never have the c

Time seemed to stop as their eyes locked. Vivianne offered a gentle smile, her lips softly grazing Frederick's.To her surprise, Frederick responded with an unexpected passion, overwhelming the inexperienced Vivianne. She felt dizzy and breathless, her mind a blank canvas as he held her tightly. Frederick was typically passive and only occasionally received affection from Vivianne. However, he was acting strangely out of character now.As he grew bolder in his advances, Vivianne understood his intentions. Panicked, she cried out, "Frederick, I'm not ready. We're not married yet. Please, give me two days to prepare." But Frederick seemed deaf to her pleas, his kisses growing more fervent.Suddenly, Vivianne's phone rang.Recognizing her father's name on the screen, she begged, "Frederick, stop! My dad is calling. I need to answer it." Frederick ignored her entirely as if possessed.Vivianne was forced to struggle against him. Amid their struggle, the Violet Spirit Vessel

Vivianne trembled as she wiped away tears. "How... How do we lure him out?"Frederick calmly replied, "Remember how we concealed the fact that four patients were cured? The culprit likely saw they weren't and assumed no one could treat the poison, which is why he struck again. We'll tell the Monroes your father was poisoned and we can't treat him, so he must go to the medical room."When he's there and the poison doesn't kill him, the culprit will panic and strike again. That's when we'll catch him." Vivianne nodded and approved of Frederick's plan. She then turned to her weakened father and said, "Dad, you need to play along for a bit."Writhing in agony from parasitic bites, Theodore could only manage a nod from his bed. A deeply worried Vivianne rushed to get helpTheodore was in the medical room, where doctors examined him thoroughly. Despite finding no obvious issues, his extreme weakness was undeniable, leaving the medical team perplexed.The illness was a baffling mys
