Connor paused, turning to look at Aiden and his buddies.The man's intimidating aura spread through the room. Aiden didn't dare to meet Connor's sharp gaze. One of Aiden's friends swallowed, pulling his friend aside and whispering, "I think that's the Southland governor, Connor Hart."Aiden was flabbergasted. He turned to face his friend and said in shock, "Don't blabber nonsense. Why would a governor come here to back Isaac up?""Haha!" Connor suddenly guffawed.He laughed in a manner that was almost unbecoming, tears pooling in his eyes."I am indeed Connor Hart, the most important official of Southland. But I didn't come here to back Isaac up," he said, still laughing.Aiden paused before laughing along. He pointed at Isaac and said to everyone, "See, I already said it was impossible. Hello, Mr. Hart. It's my engagement ceremony today. I'm really honored that you could come. Take a seat and have a drink…""Young man, you didn't understand me. Isaac doesn't need me to back him

The two families had put in a lot of time to prepare for today's engagement ceremony. It had taken them a long time to get to this point, so they didn't want to call things off like that.Seeing both families begging as well as Aiden kneeling before him, Isaac nodded and said, "I'll do my best, but whether it works out or not, you can't blame me.""Thank you so much, Mr. Garten," Terence said.Terence had no idea what Isaac and Connor discussed. Even at his rank, he was still far from Connor's position, much less Isaac's.Since Isaac was willing to help, then he just counted his blessings.They went to Diana's room. Everyone else stood outside the door; only Isaac went in alone.Diana had already changed into her favorite athletic wear, standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows. When she heard footsteps, she said coldly, "I already said you don't have to give me advice. Even if I had to remain single for the rest of my life, I still wouldn't marry him.""With your pretty

After receiving Isaac's instructions, Mitchell didn't hesitate for even a moment. He went straight to his room on the fifth floor, changed into athletic wear, and cleaned up a little. After exiting the room, he went straight to the elevator.Just as Mitchell left the headquarters, one of the guards standing by the entrance slowly raised his head and watched his retreating back.He took out a satellite phone from his pocket and quickly sent out a text.From here to the northwest region was about a hundred-mile drive. The northwest was different from the northern region in the sense that most of its land was mountains. Nonetheless, the weather was just as bad. Mitchell decided to take an international flight out of Tarzistan to Southland.This way was more convenient since Tarzistan was less than 60 miles from the northwest headquarters. The other seven armies were the same; besides the Temple of Drakon, which was based on an island abroad, the other seven armies were located on the

"Palm of the Universe!" Mitchell roared, launching two shadow fists. All the spiritual energy in his power core was concentrated in his two hands.Black spiritual energy flowed from his shoulders to his palms, which were like whirlpools, sucking in every bit of energy.At that moment, the other four elders—all burning with spiritual energy—had already reached him. Mitchell set his sights on the elder in a green cloak that had tried to flatter Ralph earlier. Once all his spiritual energy was in his palms, he thrust his fists at him.Two swirling blasts of black spiritual energy burst forth from Mitchell's palms, instantly forming a dense, inky black shadow fist that whirled toward the elder's chest.With this move, Mitchell had revealed his one-of-a-kind trump card—Palm of the Universe. When the elder saw the two spinning black shadow fists coming straight for him, he let out a furious roar. Swinging his sword, he cast two shadow swords to counter it.However, in the next second,

At dawn two days later, Mitchell, whose entire body was submerged in a herbal bath, awoke. A while later, Harry brought Isaac in.Only Mitchell's head was above the water. When he saw Isaac enter, his expression changed dramatically. He gripped both edges of the tub, trying to stand."Don't move. You're severely injured." Isaac immediately waved a hand to stop him.When Mitchell woke up and saw himself in a herbal bath, he knew that Apothecary had come, but he didn't know Drakon was here either."Mitchell, Black Phoenix managed to identify one of the culprits, Flynn Snyder. Who were the others?" Isaac asked quietly, taking a seat on the chair beside the tub.Mitchell's eyes flashed with cold light, and he said, "People from Astraeus, and the new Supreme Leader, Ralph.""Those bastards knew they couldn't beat you, so they pulled a sneak attack. Shameless fucks," Harry said icily, clenching his fists.However, Isaac smiled lightly. "Logically, that makes sense. Mitchell, I'm only
