Isaac had seen all kinds of symptoms of poisoning before, but he had never seen anything like this.He remembered that when they first got in the car, there was still a gap of four fingers' worth between the blood lines on Colton's face. In just 20 minutes, they became so dense that there was now only a gap of a finger between each line."Sir, give me two minutes," Harry said, running out. When he returned, he was carrying a thick book about ancient medicine.Flipping through it quickly, he pointed at Colton and said solemnly, "Sir, this is undoubtedly blood spider venom. It's written here. However, this hasn't appeared in half a century.""Is there an antidote?" Isaac asked in a stiff voice."No, but don't worry, sir. Colton definitely won't die in my care," Harry said, patting his chest.Isaac nodded. He turned around and jogged out.Now that Colton was with Harry, he felt at ease. Now, he had to rush over to Diana.Meanwhile, the arrest squad of 50 men had been in the forest
It took Isaac half an hour to get to the forest. Black Phoenix's voice sounded in his earpiece, "Drakon, they're in trouble.""Give me their exact location." Isaac had expected this outcome. Before he entered the forest, the spiritual energy in his power core had radiated intensely from within his body."Drakon, he got away," came Black Phoenix's voice again."Keep an eye on him," Isaac replied as he sprinted into the forest.When he arrived at the tree, a dozen officers were already lying on the ground. A bunch of bullet casings littered the ground, and the smell of blood hung in the air.Five officers had fist-sized holes in their chests, while Diana and the others lay unconscious on the ground.When Isaac approached Diana, he saw a black dot flicker and disappear between her eyebrows, but he paid it no mind. He checked Diana's pulse; she seemed to be alright."Black Phoenix, after the officers arrived, where did that bastard escape to?" Isaac said into this earpiece.Besides
A red gust of spiritual energy torpedoed forward with enough force to break a tree.The blood lines were instantly engulfed by the red spiritual energy, and they quickly dissipated into smoke and vanished.Joseph, whose palms were still pressed to the ground, was suddenly shot in the chest by the incoming burst of spiritual energy, and his body was flung into the air.Isaac's figure flickered as he charged toward Joseph, who was still soaring through the air.All Joseph saw was a ball of red light coming straight for him. He couldn't escape. The next moment, his body crashed heavily onto the ground. His head drooped, and he passed out. Half an hour later, Isaac arrived at Beacon Clinic carrying an unconscious Joseph."How's Colton?" Isaac asked after dumping Joseph onto the floor.Looking at Joseph on the floor, Harry frowned and replied, "I managed to stop the poison from spreading temporarily, but I haven't found a way to purge it yet. Sir, I remember my teacher saying that i
"Hello, who is this?" A low voice came from the phone."Glenn, it seems like my words went out your other ear. Why hasn't Evie returned to Cloud City?" Isaac smiled lightly.The other person on the phone paused for a moment. He was really shocked that Isaac had managed to get his number."So it's Drakon. Haha, what are you saying? Evie isn't in Cloud City? Well, I don't know about that. Evie's the eldest princess; only the Supreme Leader can control her," Glenn said in a neutral tone.A flash of mockery glinted in Isaac's eyes. "Where's your Supreme Leader? I want to pay him a visit.""Isaac, don't cross the line. The Astraeus has been very lenient with your behavior. The Supreme Leader isn't someone you can see at your whim and fancy," Glenn answered, his tone freezing over."In that case, I can only go ask Evie herself." Isaac felt something was off.Glenn immediately laughed coldly and said, "You're going to look for Evie? Isaac, let me remind you that even if you're the lord
"Glenn, are you trying to start a rebellion?"Glenn's smile remained unaffected by Evie's roar, but his eyes flashed menacingly.He turned to look at the two elders behind him, smiled, and said, "Evie, those are big accusations you're making. The Supreme Leader didn't order whatever happened between you and Xayden, but it is his decree that you marry Jason. If you don't believe me, the Third Elder and Fifth Elder can vouch for me."Behind him, the Third Elder and Fifth Elder chimed in immediately, "That's right, this is indeed the Supreme Leader's instruction. Even if we were the bravest people to ever live, we would never dare fabricate the will of the Supreme Leader."The door suddenly opened with a creak, and a furious Evie appeared before the three men."Glenn, I will never believe another word you say ever again. If this is really my father's wish, then bring me evidence. Let me talk to him or see him. I would never disobey my father's wishes! But if it isn't true, I would ra
Old Taylor said that Diana might not make it and that she was currently being resuscitated at the Aurum County Hospital.Before leaving the house, Isaac dragged Harry, who hadn't slept a wink the entire night, along. He couldn't understand how Diana had gone from being fine to being on the brink of death.When the two arrived at the emergency room, Jane was already sobbing her eyes out, and Albert was holding her, looking pale.Old Taylor sat in a chair to the side, gripping his cane. They rushed to Isaac immediately when they noticed him there. "Mr. Garten, you're here. I don't know what's wrong with Ana. She suddenly had a bacterial infection, and now her heart is failing," Jane wailed, gripping Isaac's hand.Albert fell to his knees. "Mr. Garten, I'm begging you to save my daughter."After what happened with the Owens, Albert got a blessing out of a curse and got promoted a few months ago. With that, he had more authority and was now very busy at work.But he knew that this
The electrifying sensation at her ears made Allegra shiver. She said weakly, "Don't mess around, or the food may end up burned. Why don't you give Dad a call and ask him when he's coming back?" Then, she reminded him with a blush, "Stop calling him "Eugene"." Isaac walked to the living room. Hearing Isaac call him "Dad" for the first time in seven years had scared the old man. Eugene said he'd come home right away and have a drink with Isaac.Later that night, it began to rain cats and dogs outside. After a long day, Allegra was already sound asleep. Isaac went to the study, lit a cigarette, and opened his laptop.At that moment, in the underground warehouse of the Beacon Clinic, Harry asked Sean for two thugs to keep watch over Joseph.Late in the night, Joseph—who'd been tortured to the point of exhaustion—raised his head to see the two thugs smoking and chatting outside the warehouse door.He raised his head slowly to look at the window behind him. Outside, lightning flashed i
The plane touched down at Zonja International Airport. After exiting the airport, Isaac said, "Let's find a hotel to rest for the night.""Er, aren't we supposed to go look for Joseph?""He already left Colorino over an hour ago," Isaac said, narrowing his eyes as he lit a cigarette.He didn't have to give it any thought; it must've been Glenn's idea."Let's go find Evie tomorrow." Isaac's gaze swept over his surroundings, and he walked toward a black Audi.Later that night, the Yves family manor in Zonja was still brightly lit with candles. In the living room, Glenn sat at the head seat, and next to him were Jeremiah, his two sons, and his grandson, Jason."First Elder, wouldn't it be too much of a rush to hold the wedding tomorrow? Even if Isaac really came, Westerton isn't under the Temple of Drakon's control," Jeremiah said, frowning.Glenn snorted coldly and replied, "Jermiah, do you want to join the Council of Elders or not?"Jeremiah paused. He then nodded and smiled. "F
