Allegra and Roger were both surprised. Why did Watson have to ask Isaac’s opinions on matters like this?“It’s your personal matter. You should decide for yourself.” Isaac sensed their doubts. He frowned slightly.Watson thought it was a tricky matter. He could promptly decline the request if Allen came alone. However, Allen was coming together with his brother-in-law, Wyatt Owens.Although the Owens family had not been standing out much in Southland, the aristocrats knew better than to mess with them.“Al—Alright, I’ll ask them over.” Watson nodded and picked up his phone again.“Father, what has gotten into you lately? You beat me up the other day because of these two, and today, you’re being so meek before that guy. Who is he, for God’s sake?” Roger mumbled, dissatisfied.He walked closer, pointed at Isaac, and said at the top of his voice, “This fellow just said that Miss Booth is my sister and that she is inheriting millions of dollars from the Kane family. They are boasting
“Old Kane, you and I have known each other for years. I’m here today for a reason. My wife is Mr. Merck’s younger sister. I’m sure you’re aware of this?”Watson frowned the moment Wyatt started speaking.Watson said nothing. Allen fell to his knees with a loud thump right next to Watson, weeping as he said, “Mr. Kane, I know it was you. Please, I beg you, show mercy to the Merck family. That day during Old Alec’s birthday celebration, I was only against Garten and Allegra, that shameless couple. The Merck family has never wronged you and the Kane family.”Allen looked up, tears streaming down his face as he grasped Watson’s arm. “Mr. Kane, let us off the hook, and the Merck family will be your loyal supporters. We saved some gold overseas. If only you would let us go, you’d have the Merck family’s heirloom.” Allen showed his last card. The Merck family was bending under enormous pressure from all parties.Watson still said nothing. Wyatt frowned. “Mr. Kane, Mr. Merck is my brother-
“How dare you hit me, you parasite!” Wyatt hollered, holding his cheek.Isaac gave him another slap. Wyatt could not dodge in time.His face swelled up immediately. The burning pain triggered him off.“Go to hell!” Wyatt swung his fist toward Isaac.However, Isaac’s kick reached him first. Wyatt’s eyes bulged as he flew backward and dropped to the floor with a loud thud. Watson sighed and shook his head while Allen and Simon got excited.Allen was not close to his sister, who married into the Owens family. They hardly ever saw each other. He had to beg his sister so hard to ask for Wyatt’s help.He did not expect that dumbass Isaac to start a fight. That was a delightful turn of events, turning Isaac and Wyatt against each other.That dumbass Isaac, did he think he could get away with it after wronging the Owens family?Wyatt scrambled up from the floor. He spat out a mouthful of blood and took several deep breaths.“Haha, awesome. Just awesome. You’ve got some good moves th
Things were about to get messy. It was safer to keep out of the center of the storm.“Mr. Garten, the Owens family has been in the military for generations. Perhaps you want to—” Watson tried to make peace. He had no idea what would happen if this went on. “Did I ask you for advice?” Isaac snorted as he looked at Watson.Watson’s heart throbbed furiously, and he shook his head immediately. “No, I wouldn’t dare.”Isaac walked toward Wyatt and Charles slowly. Charles raised his dagger as he backed up, shouting, “Stay where you are. Take one more step, and I’ll show you.”Isaac darted forward and slapped Charles. Charles swiveled from the force of the slap, and his dagger dropped to the floor with a thud.“Show me what, exactly?”He turned and slapped Wyatt too. “Remember this. There are no widows in the Booth family. There is only Allegra Booth. Get it?”Wyatt held his burning cheek, his eyes spitting fire, but he averted his gaze.It was the first time he felt such humiliation
Isaac and Allegra only began to make their way home after the sun had set. In the afternoon, Watson had taken them on a tour of the historical monuments in the provincial capital. Allegra hadn’t been to the provincial capital in a while, which was why she was in a good mood.When they got in the car, Allegra took out her phone and checked it. She said in surprise, “M—My Dad called me more than ten times. So did my Mom!”She also saw several unread texts. She opened and read them before turning to look at Isaac.“They arrived at Riverview at about 2 pm and have been waiting for me.”Hearing Allegra’s hurried explanation, Isaac nodded and said, “Then, I’ll step on it.”Allegra’s phone rang again as soon as the car got on the highway.This time, she saw Andrew’s number instead. After a moment’s hesitation, she frowned and put the phone to her ear.“What do you want?” Her tone was chilly.“Allegra, where the fuck have you been all day? Mom and Dad were beaten, and so was I. G—Get h
Allegra turned toward Isaac, her eyes gleaming with tears as she bit her lip harshly.“Okay, I’ll go.” When Isaac saw how pained and troubled Allegra looked, he did not hesitate.Margaret sat on the ground and let out a sigh of relief as a small smile crept onto her face. She knew that if Isaac went with Big Anthony, he wouldn’t be coming back.“I want to go with him!” Allegra said suddenly, shocking everyone in the living room.Big Anthony immediately smiled at her coldly. “Sure. You are quite a looker, and I happened to need a tea lady.”Margaret paused briefly before shrieking, “My daughter, don’t be foolish. You are now a notable woman, so how can you go with that savage? You can’t…”Cussler, who was in front of Big Anthony, immediately slapped Margaret in the face, shouting angrily, “Shut your mouth. Say another word, and I’ll slice your tongue off.”“Anthony, you’d better think twice. If I go with you today, you’ll suffer a fate worse than death!” Isaac was astounded that
A loud noise reached Big Anthony’s ears as the old wooden door burst open. He turned around to see a badly smashed door and a burly figure standing in the doorway.Beefy Bob raised his head, his eyes bloodshot. He wanted to get down on one knee at the sight of Isaac smoking a cigarette but was interrupted by Big Anthony’s furious roar. “How ballsy, breaking into my Hibiscus Pavilion. Kill him!”The eight subordinates in the room, including Cussler, all charged toward Beefy Bob.“You’re asking for it,” Beefy Bob cursed lowly, feeling both angry and fearful.He was angry because these bastards had dared to drag Drakon here, yet fearful because he was also afraid of Drakon’s punishment. Cussler raced to the front. He suddenly brandished a dagger in his right hand and aimed it at Beefy Bob’s abdomen.Beefy Bob’s large body nimbly dodged it. He reached out his right hand to grab Cussler’s wrist while his left hand went straight for Cussler’s shoulder.He released an intense force in
“Isaac, Bob really scared me earlier. He’s so cruel,” Allegra couldn’t help but comment. Her stomach was now totally emptied.Isaac pinched a cigarette between his fingers. He hesitated briefly before saying, “Actually, he has a disease, so I can’t really blame him.”“Disease? What kind of disease?”“It’s a little like rabies. It’s quite rare; once it acts up, he may even bite himself.” Isaac looked up, gazing into the horizon. If he phrased it this way, Ally might understand better.Shock was written all over Allegra’s face. She fell silent.Before they knew it, they’d walked to the back alley behind Cloud City University. There were a lot of local delicacies here. Further behind was the Cloud River, also known as the River of Young Intellectuals—courtesy of its close proximity to the university.Allegra suddenly stopped in her tracks. She gazed at a small pizzeria opposite them.“The man who shared your name used to really like coming here for their pizzas.” Her voice was very
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
"Just standing here and watching isn't really helpful. Let's go over and talk to them," Isaac proposed.Mixandrei, although a bit concerned, did not refuse.They walked over.Upon seeing Isaac and Mixandrei, the villagers slightly paused and did not appear overly surprised.That left Isaac and Mixandrei surprised.Wouldn't ordinary villagers be wary when they suddenly see two strangers coming to their village?"Hello, everyone," Isaac greeted.Two fishermen continued chatting casually as they worked, laughing as if nothing unusual was happening."It looks like more outsiders from other realms have arrived. Our place has been bustling lately."......Upon hearing those words, Isaac and Mixandrei were both taken aback.There were many people from other realms?What did that mean?"Hello everyone. As you can see, this is our first time in this realm, and we're not very familiar with it. We would like to learn more from you," Isaac began speaking.He maintained a calm and com
Isaac introduced."I've never heard of such a realm before, and I'm eager to go in and see it!" Mixandrei widened her beautiful eyes in surprise and exclaimed excitedly.After speaking, she reached out and touched the boundaries of that realm.But, she was pushed back as her spirit was unable to get close."Only a portion of our spirit can enter the soul artifact, and even after being enhanced by it, we're not strong enough to go inside. We might need to put all our spirits into the soul artifact, but if we do that, our bodies in the real realm would be motionless, like corpses." Isaac speculated."So what? We can lie in the sarcophagus, and with the protection of the sarcophagus and the secret chamber, our true form will definitely be safe. Then our spirit enters the artifact," Mixandrei proposed."Great idea, let's do it this way!" Isaac nodded in agreement.At that moment, he felt that the coffin yard was remarkable because its defensive power was off the charts.Dreamlerq's
"If you really feel so uneasy, how about I keep you company tonight?" Isaac smiled."Ah? You naughty!" Mixandrei's face turned red as she playfully scolded.Isaac then spent a few relaxing months more with his family.During that period, even someone like Mixandrei, who used to be completely immersed in cultivation, experienced a change in mindset.She realized that those were the truly carefree days.What was the purpose of the effort put into cultivation?Wasn't it all for the freedom they craved?Another six months passed.Skylar's body had finally fully recovered to her peak.Allegra, Evie, and the children were sent back to the lower realm by Isaac.Isaac and Mixandrei could finally begin their journey to explore that mysterious realm."Isaac, I want to... have a child with you." That night, Skylar lay in Isaac's embrace and spoke softly with a hint of shyness."Huh? Why do you think of that?" Isaac asked with interest."Because... I want to keep up with you, at least
"When you were unconscious, I managed to conquer the other two kingdoms. Currently, the Boltzyn Dynasty is still under the rule of several generals from our kingdom. I haven't yet decided who will serve as the emperor there. Elon's eldest son, Ergon, is in charge of the Seraphym Dynasty with Connor and Zaid assisting as Regents. "Once Ergon is ready to take full control, the authority of the Regents will be withdrawn." Isaac pushed Skylar along while explaining and giving an overview of the events that had taken place in the Upper Martial Realm over the past few years.Skylar was quite shocked after hearing that Isaac took down the Seraphym Dynasty and Boltzyn Dynasty.Wasn't it said that it was a turbulent time with powerful figures emerging everywhere, making it unwise to do something so flashy?She had many overwhelming feelings and a lot of questions she wanted to ask, but because of her physical condition, she couldn’t speak up.That made her feel a bit puzzled.Spending ti
"She's recovering, although it might take a while for her to wake up. The important thing is that she survived. I was the one who killed her, and I've always felt guilty about it. Now that she can live again, that's the best outcome." Drea looked at Isaac holding Skylar in his arms. His dry, wrinkled face showed a hint of joy, and he spoke."Haha, it's actually not your fault because, at that time, your body was controlled by an evil corpse spirit. You were essentially another being." Isaac, who was in high spirits, laughed heartily.In a sense, Drea could be considered a corpse spirit too, but he was aligned with him and obeyed his commands, essentially a "righteous" or "good" corpse spirit.It was no longer the purely malevolent corpse spirit it once was.While they both inhabited the same body, their souls were fundamentally different."I'm really curious about that mysterious realm Dreamlerq mentioned. What exactly is it?" Mixandrei asked curiously.That was a secret known
How strong was Dreamlerq?No wonder that Freddie and Esther called him the top prodigy ever since!"Skylar!" Isaac lifted Skylar from the coffin yard and channeled divine energy into her body.Divine energy had miraculous power and of course, the key was that Skylar’s soul was intact and the physical damage to the body wasn’t too severe.The effects of divine energy began to show.Isaac felt a slight movement of Skylar's heart.Then, with thumping sounds, it began to pulsate."It works! It really works!" Isaac was overjoyed.He finally managed to revive Skylar. He truly didn't know what he could do next if it didn't work."She needs a long time to recover, so let her stay here and continue absorbing divine energy. It looks like this Immortal Realm portal will take a few minutes to close," Mixandrei said.Although Skylar had her heart beating, it took some time for a full recovery.Isaac waited patiently.Additionally, he took out the Soul Purifying Flask and coffin, intendi
As someone at the advanced stage of the Divine Sovereign Phase, she could only control a small portion of the principle.However, this powerful being seemed capable of commanding all of it!"Is this…an immortal?" She murmured to herself in awe. The surrounding space shifted, and without anyone realizing it, they had arrived at the immortal tomb. This place was normally inaccessible unless actively opened. However, it had been breached effortlessly under Dreamlerq's influence.The sheer capability was astonishing. "It's such a pity…Sir Freddie passed away too soon. If he were still alive now, just a breath of divine energy or entering the immortal realm would have granted him eternal life…"Isaac's thought left him feeling a sense of regret."Freddie's lifespan had already reached its limits. Even if he inhaled divine energy, he couldn't have been able to live much longer.""As for helping him enter the immortal realm, that's beyond my ability. It would have involved treme
"You're clearly far away in the Immortal realm," Isaac expressed his amazement through his consciousness. "To my knowledge, you're in great need of divine energy right now. With the soul artifact, you'll be able to obtain it," Dreamlerq responded. A spark of joy lit up in Isaac's heart. The soul artifact could help him to acquire divine energy. But how? As the artifact's owner, Isaac had a general understanding of its functions. However, there wasn't an option to open the Immoral Realm. He wasn't at the peak of the Sacrificial Phase, so how could he pierce the Immoral Realm's barrier and create a small opening?"I know what you're wondering. Now that you have my soul artifact, you can easily communicate with me. From my end in the Immortal Realm, I can create a small opening for you to draw in divine energy. Just remember to use the soul artifact to contain the energy, it can hold as much as you're able to capture." Dreamlerq seemed to have guessed Issac's confusion and explai
