The remaining four guards instantly understood that Richard wanted to pin the blame on Isaac and Erica.Richard shot one of the guards a meaningful look, and he immediately took out his phone to call the police. The others ran downstairs to get reinforcements.The death of a student was way over the school's boundaries. Not to mention, this was the daughter of John and Alicia Downing. There was a huge shitstorm waiting to happen.Isaac stared at Carmilla in shock. Her body was lying on the ground, and her neck was twisted at an angle.Then, he turned to stare at the terrified Erica.When Erica caught Isaac's gaze, she assumed Isaac thought she was responsible for Carmilla's death. She quickly explained, "Sir, I didn't … kill her. She died on her own." Isaac wasn't shocked by Carmilla's death. Instead, he was stunned by the words Erica had said to him just a few minutes ago.She'd said Carmilla would die, and then Carmilla really died.Logically speaking, she'd rolled down from
Four thuds sounded, and the four burly bodyguards were sent flying one after another."Since you're going to twist the truth, then I'm going to play your game until the very end," Isaac snorted coldly, staring at Richard and John.Although he just saw his bodyguards soaring through the air, John was only getting even more furious.He'd been doing business in Cynea for over 20 years. He'd sent his daughter to Cloudcrest because it seemed like a good school with a strong history.Not to mention, after he started making money in Cynea, this was the first school he invested in.Never did he think that his beloved daughter would lose her life in this place.In that instance, Erica stared at John and said, "Sir, do you know 'fate'? Even if your daughter hadn't died earlier, she would've died today anyway, just in another way!" Isaac's mouth twitched. Where did this girl find the courage to say that?Hearing that, John roared, "Fuck, that girl is a murderer. Arrest them!" Then, he
Erica couldn't help but laugh because Isaac had simply repeated her words from earlier, but Diana looked bewildered. "Arrest them now!" John roared again.Before Diana could say anything, Richard began to pressure Diana."I don't care which department you're from. Mr. John and his wife are diplomats from the Kingdom of Aquila. Now, I'm asking you to arrest these two suspects at once."Seeing Richard's high and mighty attitude, Diana frowned."Before the police name any suspects, everyone here is under suspicion. Now, I need a coroner to take the body away and conduct a post-mortem. Seal off the scene. No one leaves," Diana ordered with a cool look. She ignored Richard and began following procedures.More people were now watching. Erica also grew nervous.Isaac wanted to bring her away from here. But when he thought about it, he decided to cooperate with Diana instead. After all, he'd called her over.He also hoped that Diana would clear Erica's name.After all, the police wer
Diana was pointing her gun to the ceiling, looking furious. In fact, the muzzle was still smoking."You asshole, what are you doing? Are you trying to kill your colleagues?" Michael shouted at Diana."The Cloud City Police own this case. If you insist on snatching it from us, then you have to go through me!" Diana yelled in anger.It was true that she didn't know this place had fallen under Layton's territory. But she was sure of one thing. Something fishy must be going on for Michael to bring so many people here.Michael narrowed his eyes.He never expected that this hot police chief would be so strong."Fine. Since you also want this case, then let's ask our superiors. Let's see what the headquarters has to say." Just as Michael picked up the phone, another car screeched to a stop outside the building.A military truck and a Jeep were parked outside.Harry and another young man dressed in military uniform rushed in.Fifty armed soldiers got out of the military truck. They jo
The forensic team that Flynn brought served in the best military hospital in the central region. Hence, their reports carried a lot of weight.So, when Isaac and Flynn turned to look at Felicia at the same time, she instantly broke down.John gaped at Felicia in shock. He jumped to his feet and pounced on her. He roared, "So it was you who killed my daughter, you bitch! Return my daughter to me!" Two soldiers immediately held John back.Richard was in shock. He never expected the soldiers to be so efficient.At the side, Michael was also deathly pale. Judging from Flynn's rank, he knew that Flynn wasn't the type to speak lightly.Plus, those medical examiners were wearing lab coats with the emblem of the best military hospital. They were not here to joke around.No one would dare deny their findings."Nonsense. There is no way that one of our teachers would have done such a thing. It was that little girl and that bastard who killed Carmilla. Mr. John, don't listen to them. The
Seeing how Diana was staring at him, Isaac said solemnly, "Hey, can you be more serious? What is it?""My concert is happening the day after tomorrow. Don't forget, you and Allegra must come. Oh, if Isabella is free, bring her along too!" Serena was still worried that her busy brother-in-law would forget about the very first stop of her world tour.That was why she called him just to remind him."Alright, I won't forget. Don't worry."After hanging up, he suddenly felt a weight on his arm. When he turned his head, he saw Diana clinging to his arm. Her pretty face was merely inches away from his lips."Was that Serena Booth?" Diana asked with sparkling eyes."Yes.""And she just invited you to her first concert in Canton?" "Yes."Diana immediately waved her hands in excitement. Grinning from ear to ear, she screamed at Isaac, "I want to go too!"Er …"Isaac, please take me with you. I stayed up for two nights to buy tickets but failed to get any!" Diana begged as she shook I
Why had Erica been arrested?"When did this happen? Who arrested her?" Isaac anxiously asked as he hurried out the door.It couldn't be a groundless rumor. Otherwise, Diana wouldn't have rushed here at this hour."I just heard about it from a colleague in the headquarters. Michael had brought some men to the school and asked to keep it a secret. And apparently, Richard and Felicia have also been released." Isaac's gaze darkened even further.If the people Flynn arrested had been released, then there was only one possibility—it was Flynn's superior who'd given the order.What in the world happened?Diana got into the passenger seat and asked Isaac, "Where are we going now?" "We're going to look for Erica. Also, get someone to bring Richard and Felicia over too."After a moment of thought, he took out his phone and dialed Harry's number. He muttered coldly, "Ask Flynn to meet me at the Southland Police Headquarters."It would be much easier to get the facts straight if everyo
Isaac's voice was as cold as an iceberg. His face was expressionless, but his gaze was ablaze.The two officers didn't have the courage to look him in the eye."So what? Who the fuck do you think you are …"Before he could finish his sentence, Isaac slapped him in the face.The arrogant man flew backward. He slammed into a wall before crashing to the floor. A crack had formed on the wall.That man coughed up a few mouthfuls of blood and then stopped breathing.When the other officer saw what happened, he was so scared that his heart was about to jump out of his chest. Pointing at Isaac, he said in a trembling voice, "Y-You just killed …""Tell Michael to get here now!" Isaac roared at the top of his lungs. The officer's eardrums hurt from how loud Isaac's voice was. He immediately turned around and ran out.Diana searched the dead officer's body and found a key. After unlocking Erica's handcuffs, she walked over to Isaac. She whispered with a frown, "Isaac, you shouldn't have
"The extra 10 years of torment is your punishment for deceiving me, I don't like being lied to. Just hang in there for another 10 years." The Darklord clicked his tongue as mocked judgment, then turned to Isaac and delivered his remarks with a mix of reassurance and sarcasm.His words had an intent to "win over" but he kept reassuring about certain matters, obviously not wanting Isaac to develop too much of a rebellious mindset.He knew that what truly mattered to Isaac was Mixandrei, but there was no way for him to do anything to her in a short time.He needed to ensure that Isaac no longer had any reason to refuse to submit.......One year…Two years…Nine years…Ten years…Another decade passed.Including the previous decade, it was two decades.Isaac had stayed in that world for two decades.His physical body was still lying in a coffin yard, while his mind had been in this virtual world for two decades!The Darklord stood up and looked down at Isaac.Isaac was loo
"Great! Excellent!" The Darklord was overjoyed and sprang to his feet.Clearly, he valued Isaac in high regard and believed that he would benefit greatly from having such loyal and reliable help.Moreover, the secrets Isaac held were valuable.With all of that, becoming immortal wasn't difficult. Even after achieving immortality, he could dominate the Immortal Realm!"I will now merge with your spirit and plant my seed within you. Do not resist and accept it."The Darklord was eager to make Isaac completely his servant.Reaching out with a large hand, attempting to touch Isaac."Alright…" Isaac spoke wearily.He looked as if he didn't want to resist at all and just wanted to put an end to the pain as quickly as possible.At that moment, the Darklord hadn't relieved the suffering. The intention was to ensure that Isaac to not change his mind. The relentless and boundless agony served as a constant reminder.......The Darklord had already reached Isaac, and soon, Isaac would
"Ah!" Isaac let out a low, raspy scream.It hurt so much.The suffering of spiritual anguish was just as intense as physical pain, if not more so.In an hour, the Darklord lowered the intensity of the torment to a level where Isaac was in constant pain, but not killing him."You talk too much, woman. When the barrier is lifted, I'll make sure you understand the consequences of being so talkative!" the Darklord looked at Mixandrei and spoke in a sinister tone.Then, he let out a cold laugh."No rush, I've got plenty of time to wait this out with you. It's only been a few months, and I can wait alongside you for decades or even hundreds of years. Take your time and enjoy."……After finishing the statement, he stopped talking again and just sat there, using a few methods to torment.One month…Two months…One year…Two years…......In the blink of an eye, ten years had passed.Isaac's spirit was tormented by Darklord for an entire decade.Over the past ten years, Isaac ha
At that moment, his words pierced Isaac's ears like a sharp knife; it was also like a blow to Isaac.It was indeed, a spiritual blow."One day, I will tear you apart and make you regret ever being born." Isaac clenched his teeth, his face flushed, and he issued a threat."Hmm?" The Darklord furrowed his brow, clearly not expecting Isaac to have the audacity to say something like that."You're gutsy, but it's also kind of ridiculous. Do you even realize the situation you're in right now? Do you really think you can pull it off?" the Darklord responded with mocking sarcasm.Over the past two months, Mixandrei stayed within a protective shield, shedding countless tears and yelling until her voice was hoarse, but it was all in vain.She could only watch helplessly as her beloved was continuously tormented, unable to do anything under the barrier.That had just as much of an impact on her."Isaac, I don't understand what you're still holding onto. You're exhausted. Why not let go an
At that moment, he had no idea how naive his words were.The Darklord quickly transported him to a dark space to torment his soul. He was coerced to submit and become a slave, and reveal all his secrets.For the first time in his life, Isaac was experiencing such torment.It was pure torment from the Darklord!It was like being better off dead than alive."Kneel, submit to me, acknowledge me as your master, and become my servant. Otherwise, I'll keep tormenting you like this forever."The Darklord tormented Isaac's spirit while giving him orders.The Darklord appeared quite unhurried.Isaac was even threatened, with the implication that if he didn't agree, there would be some very inappropriate actions taken against Mixandrei right in front of him.Faced with that situation, Isaac couldn't hold back his anger and felt the urge to fight back.But he was too weak.The soul artifact buffed his spirit, but it only allowed him to contend with the Sacrificial Phase in its early st
"Who's there?" Isaac suddenly shouted in alarm.Someone nearby launched a surprise attack.Mixandrei was slightly slow to react but she chose to trust Isaac and prepare for battle together with him.Thud!A sharp flash of a blade cut through the void.They immediately retaliated with all their strength."King of Pyrois?" Isaac squinted, trying to identify.That person was covered head to toe in a black cloth, concealing the true appearance.The battle resumed. Isaac was evenly matched but soon another enemy appeared behind him.It was the King of Pyrois."Haha, Zegna, thanks for inviting me to help out. If I let him get away, I'm going to regret it for the rest of my life!" King of Pyrois laughed heartily."Zegna?" Isaac squinted his eyes."Could this man in black really be Zegna?"King of Pyrois and Zegna, one in front and one in back, were positioning themselves to launch an attack on Isaac and Mixandrei.At that point, the power of the soul artifact became evident once
In the recent fight, the King of Pyrois was on the weak side and it left him a bit annoyed.But it was okay.There were plenty of allies nearby."Everyone, attack!" As soon as he gave the order, two hundred guards charged continuously, wave after wave.Although they were mere mortals, the realm's blessing endowed them to pose a threat to Isaac and Mixandrei."Let's go!"Isaac wasn't willing to stay any longer. He grabbed Mixandrei and prepared to leave."You think you can get away? Not a chance!" King of Pyrois flew into the air, attempting to intercept.Isaac attempted to rip through spacetime but was thwarted because they could seal the void.That made his heart skip a beat because it would be difficult for them to leave by using the Principles of the Void."There's a gap, go that way!" Mixandrei launched an attack in another direction to enlarge the gap.Isaac followed right behind.However, the King of Pyrois was close behind, moving faster than the two of them."Get l
Just as Isaac was about to strike, a captain stopped the guard and ordered, "Don't make things difficult for them, let them in!"……"Yes." The guards behaved and followed orders.Then one of the guards whispered a threat to Isaac."Once we're in City 12, don't try any sneaky stealing. Otherwise, I'll definitely catch you!"……Isaac squinted and glanced at him as he remained silent.Isaac and Mixandrei entered the city.The streets and buildings inside the city looked just like those in the real realm.Isaac soon realized that the people living there all had a strong spiritual resilience.No wonder those guards were so arrogant. In the outside realm, anyone who dared to be that arrogant toward a high-level martial artist would be dead."The person who just allowed the two of you to enter the city without any trouble was actually the advisor. He recognized you both. The advisor would like to meet the two of you. Would two of you be willing to oblige?" At that moment, a thin
After taking action, they realized that although they could harness certain natural laws, in terms of spirit strength, the opponent was unbeatable.They simply couldn't hurt the civilians at all.Isaac kept blinking behind his opponent trying to launch a sneak attack, only to find that the opponent's spirit shield was incredibly resilient.It was impossible to break open."It's strange, does the realm really protect ordinary civilians? We can't do anything to them at all." Isaac was surprised.They were both shocked and found it unbelievable."We can't do anything to them, and they can't do anything to us either," Mixandrei spoke in a cold tone.It was clear that she was in a bad mood and upset right now.They were offended by a group of ordinary people, yet unable to do anything about them."Please, the two of you should leave. We don't welcome outsiders here. If you are truly kind-hearted, go into the city, there are places there that will welcome you!" At that point, a youn
