Isaac walked up to Rory and said in a deep voice, “I won this fair and square. Do you have a problem with that?”“Fair and square? You were just using that rich lady to cover for you! What makes you think you can compare yourself to me? Wanna bet whose credit card has the highest limit?” Rory roared back in anger.“It’s been a while since we met. I guess you still remember some things of the past though, don’t you?” Isaac suddenly started laughing.Then, he slapped Rory on the cheek. Rory nursed his cheek and glared at Isaac. “You fucking bastard, you dare to slap me?”“If I could slap you back when we were in high school, then I can still slap you now,” Isaac said with a shrug.“You fucker! I’m going to—”Isaac lifted his palm and smacked Rory on the cheek again, making him turn around in a semicircle before falling to the ground on his butt.When Rory stood back up, Isaac said lightly, “I’m now the friend of a Platinum member here. Do you think the security guards would dare to lift
It was past 9 o’clock at night, and Allegra still hadn’t come home. Eugene said that she was still looking for a suitable location for her company office.The next afternoon, Isaac called Beefy Bob over to Riverview and asked him if he knew of any ways to make his wedding anniversary more memorable.Confused, Beefy Bob scratched his head and said sheepishly, “Isaac, you know that I don’t know anything about romantic shit like that. Shouldn’t you be asking that flirt instead? He’s better at this than I am.”Isaac’s phone started ringing just then. Seeing that it was a call from Allegra, he picked up immediately.“Isaac, where are you? Can you go over to the school? Something’s happened to Bella,” Allegra said anxiously over the phone.Isaac hung up and said to Beefy Bob, “Call Apothecary. You can work together to settle it for me.”“What? Wait, Isaac! I don’t know anything about—” Beefy Bob hadn’t managed to get his words out before Isaac left in a hurry.Allegra didn’t explain much abo
Sally Sunn and her husband, Robert Grunt, lived right next to Carmine Elementary School. They knew that all the kids who went to this school came from wealthy backgrounds.Sally’s mother often collected aluminum cans and glass bottles around the area for recycling. When she was crossing the road today, she tripped over and fell.At the hospital ward, an old lady with snowy white hair lay on the bed as she cried sadly. Isabella held Isaac’s hand tighter, her face still streaked with tears.“Mom, how are you feeling? The parents of the kid who pushed you over are here. Is there anything you want to say to them?” Sally asked in a pitiful voice, walking over to her mother.The old lady shut her eyes and furrowed her eyebrows. Allegra immediately stepped forward and said, “Ma’am, I’m sorry. My kid was in the wrong. I hope you’re alright. Just take care of your health and focus on recovering. We’ll take responsibility for this.”The old lady suddenly opened her eyes and started scolding them
Isaac could guess what had really happened. Most of all, he believed that his daughter was innocent.Around 3 o’clock that day, Sally, her husband, and another young couple called Isaac and Allegra to the hospital lobby.The other couple was Sally’s younger brother and his wife. As soon as they saw Isaac and Allegra, the young man rushed up to Isaac and grabbed him by the collar. Then, he spat, “My mother is going to have to spend the rest of her life in a wheelchair. What the fuck are you going to do about it?”The young man had a tattooed sleeve and was behaving like a hooligan, provoking Isaac to fight back. However, Allegra immediately pulled Isaac’s arm and said pleadingly to the young man, “Sir, please don’t be rash. Let’s have a proper talk, okay?”The young man let go of Isaac and gave him the middle finger. Then, he took a stack of documents from Sally and flung them in Isaac’s face. He said coldly, “This is the official report. It’s clearly written that her leg cannot recove
After watching the videos, Allegra’s eyes doubled in shock. She suddenly felt guilty as she sobbed, “I was wrong to blame Bella for this. I even hit her so hard, too!”While Allegra called up Serena, Isaac walked over to Sally and her brother and showed them the video clips.After watching the videos, both of them were in shock.“That old lady had been lying all along. As you can see, she fell over by herself first. All of you have to apologize to my daughter!” Allegra shouted at them angrily.The young man’s gaze suddenly turned dangerous as he swung out at Isaac. He reached to grab Isaac’s phone, but Isaac managed to avoid him. “What, trying to get rid of the evidence now?” Isaac asked coldly.“What evidence? That video is fucking blurry and makes no fucking sense! If my mother said that your fucking daughter pushed her over, then it was your daughter who fucking pushed her over! You will have to pay! Don’t you fucking dare to run away!” the young man screamed.Sally also started to
“He’s too noisy. Take him out.”Beefy Bob immediately bent down, grabbed the wailing man by his ankle, and dragged him out of the room.Then, Allegra brought Isabella into the ward. Two other people in police uniforms also came in with them.“Mr. Garten, we’re here on Officer Taylor’s orders. How may we assist you today?”Isaac took out his phone and pointed at the old lady, saying, “This old lady and her daughter framed my daughter. I have just received evidence of their lies. Please watch the video and let them if it’s been edited or doctored in any way.”Seeing the police in the room, Sally started to panic.One of the officers watched the video carefully for a while and said, “This is not edited nor doctored in any way. It’s an unedited dashcam video footage.”Isaac nodded in satisfaction and said, “Now, I want them to issue an official apology to my daughter and compensate us for my daughter’s trauma and my lost work hours.”“Did you hear that? Mr. Garten wants you to apologize to
The two officers felt their lips twitching in amusement. However, neither one of them went up to stop the old lady from jumping.The old lady sheepishly looked at Sally, who was completely ignoring her. So, the old lady made another fuss about climbing onto the windowsill. But once she stuck her head out of the window and saw how far up she was, she started to have second thoughts.In the end, the old lady slid to the floor with her back against the wall and slapped her thighs as she wailed loudly, “Why is this happening to me? Why?”She didn’t dare to jump. That meant she had to pay up, somehow or other.Isaac walked up to Isabella and squatted down, telling her in a low voice, “When you’re dealing with bad people like them, remember that you shouldn’t give in to their whims. Do you understand now?”“I understand,” Isabella said with a serious nod.“So, will you still help old folks up if you see them fall?”Isabelle hesitated for only two seconds before saying, “Yes.”Isaac smiled an
Allegra felt even more upset when she looked at Isaac. She kept remembering all the things they’d been through together.“Why don’t you leave first? I’ll stay here with her,” Serena whispered to Isaac.“Tonight—”“Don’t worry, I’ll bring her to The Waterfront Wonderland without fail. Trust me,” Serena said, waving Isaac off.That evening, Isaac reached The Waterfront Wonderland first. He sat on a couch inside the main hall as he waited. This time, Mr. Zane served him personally and dared not leave his post.The restaurant was filled with people as usual. They were all dressed very elegantly.Just then, there was a slight commotion. A long-haired lady in a gray maxi dress and simple makeup entered the restaurant. It was Emily. There were many eyes on her as she walked into the restaurant.“Isaac, you’re here too?” Emily pretended to be surprised and quickly walked toward him.She’d known that Isaac would definitely be here tonight. She wanted to replace Isaac’s first impression of her.
"Yes, he's incredibly strong. He managed to seriously injure the Darklord with a single strike. The immortals are unbelievably powerful..."Mixandrei nodded and then recalled the scene from that time, feeling even more amazed."Did I hear that right? Mr. Carpenter said we should go find Esther?" Isaac asked again."Yes, but he didn't say where to look."Mixandrei's face looked a bit awkward.Isaac took a deep breath, indicating that he wanted to take another break.At the same time, in the real world, in the palace of the Kingdom of Vriweth."Lord Drakon and Mixandrei have been in the secret chamber for 20 years. Do you think anything could've gone wrong?" Noel asked with concern.She was currently a female attendant, assisting Skylar with some tasks."Lord Drakon didn't tell us not to disturb him before going in. Does this mean we can enter the secret chamber to take a look?""What if it affects his cultivation?""It's been 20 years, and his cultivation still hasn't ended..
"Dreamlerq?!"The voice of the Darklord was filled with terror.Mixandrei was stunned. It was the first time she had ever seen the proud and powerful Darklord make such a sound.It was as if he had witnessed the most terrifying thing in the world.The white light, which was referred to as "Dreamlerq", completely enveloped Isaac, preventing the dark spiritual energy hand of the Darklord from getting anywhere close."How... how could you possibly have come from the Immortal Realm? Even if... even if you are an immortal, it wouldn't be possible to achieve... how did you..."The Darklord widened his eyes and stuttered in disbelief.He watched as Isaac, who was well-protected and supportive, moved further away from him, and he just couldn't accept it.He immediately ran after him, trying to stop Isaac."You're looking for trouble," Dreamlerq quietly uttered.Then, in the sky above, a massive pale arrow shot straight toward the Darklord.The Darklord stood there and was unable to
"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
