Hayden said with a proud look on his face.After decades, he could finally show his collection to others in person.Hayden then walked to the center of the room and approached one of the glass cases.This case was over a square foot, larger than any of the other cases in the room."This is the Exotic Stone, our most valuable collection!" Hayden exclaimed, pointing his hand at the jar containing a beautiful necklace."We spent nearly three years creating this high quality piece, making it the longest necklace we have ever made!" he continued.Although it was made of only one type of gemstone, diamonds, there were nearly 100 shapes of them, including round, princess, and marquise, which were then assembled into a beautiful bib necklace.No one knew exactly how much the jewelry cost.But given the composition of the diamonds and the complexity and beauty of the design, no jewelry expert dared bet that the necklace would cost less than a billion dollars, making it one of the most expensiv
While everyone was pondering these questions, Henry could feel a very strong energy emanating from the cube.He started to approach the cube, but one of Anicet's bodyguards stopped him."Hey, fool! Stay away from that object if you don't want to get hurt!"The man had shoulder-length hair and a handsome face, giving the impression of a friendly young man.However, his words to Henry were not only very rude, but his look was also very unfriendly.Henry stopped and stared at the man in front of him.While his expression remained largely unaffected, Libby's was different."This guy is too rude; I have to let him know who Henry really is," the girl thought.But before she could speak, both of her ears caught another sound."Gentleman, please excuse this young man's behavior!" Hayden said, looking at the well-dressed man."He is one of those who claim they can solve the mystery of the Cube!" he continued.Hearing Hayden's words, Libby was surprised."What? Is what I hear true?" she wondere
Seeing his father's stern attitude towards Henry, Libby opened her mouth again to remind the old man that Henry would do it."Dad, don't worry! Henry can definitely..."But before she could finish her sentence, Hayden stared into the girl's eyes and silenced her."Enough, my little girl! I've heard enough about this young man!" he exclaimed. "I just want him to prove it in front of all of us!"Hayden turned to face Henry again. "Open the box right now or I'll make you regret you ever came here!"Hayden said the threatening words as he pulled a gun from his suit pocket.By ordering Henry to open the cube, he not only wanted to embarrass him, but he also wanted revenge.More than that, Hayden wanted to get even!At that moment, it occurred to him that Henry probably had no idea what the cube was, let alone how to open it."This young man is indeed a talented con man!" Hayden thought. "Even in a desperate situation like this, he can still pretend to be calm!"However, Hayden knew it was
Anicet's body stiffened slightly at what had just happened.At this moment, he had no idea what had caused his two disciples to suddenly disappear in front of him and what had happened to them.At the same time, all eyes were on him.Realizing that he was now the center of attention, Anicet tried to regain control of himself."Don't worry! You'll be fine!" he said, trying to calm everyone down.Then he turned to the handsome young man with shoulder-length hair and another young man."You and you!" he pointed. "Quickly, put that black cube in the wooden box!"Hearing this order, a flush of fear and worry suddenly appeared on the faces of these two young men."Huh? Why is Master ordering me around? What should I do?" they thought.They had seen what happened to their two friends.They were also afraid that it would happen to them."I don't want to die or just disappear! I still want to sleep with many women and drink wine! I don't want to do that!"Their minds kept saying that.Of cours
At that moment, everyone could see a cloth hanging in the air.It was a black cloth with gold embroidery on all four edges.At first glance, there was nothing special about it."Mr. Lane, forgive me for taking so long to open this cube," he said after turning to Hayden."I assure you, I will open it for you immediately!"Anicet said with confidence written all over his face."Hmmm!" Hayden replied as he nodded his head, apparently sensing the master's confidence.Anicet then walked over to the black cube and placed the black cloth on it with his own hands.Then he gave orders to his disciples. "Don't be afraid, this time you can safely put it into the wooden box!"Immediately, the two disciples approached the black cube covered by the cloth and stretched out their hands.At first they seemed hesitant.But when nothing happened when their hands touched the cube, their hearts were greatly relieved.Not only the two of them, but everyone else in the room was relieved as well."Mr. Borida
The question naturally left Hayden and everyone else in the room stunned."B-but..."Hayden couldn't continue his words because the next moment, Anicet swung the hammer in his hand towards the black cube.Bang!With a single blow, the black stone shattered into several pieces.Anicet approached the debris as if he saw something.He reached out and rummaged through the ruins, pulling out a rolled-up piece of paper."Look! I found something!" Anicet exclaimed as he approached the still shocked Hayden.The overweight man handed the rolled paper to the head of the Lane family."As the owner of the black stone, you have the most right to open it!" he said.The words slowly brought Hayden out of his shock.With a slight tremor, he opened the seemingly very old rolled paper.[If you are reading this letter, it means that you have successfully destroyed this cursed stone and removed its evil influence!I will be grateful to you in this life and the next seven lives!]What?Does the cube only
"All of you!" Anicet shouted to his students. "Teach this insolent young man a lesson and make sure he ends up in hell!""Ready, Master!"The six students then approached Henry with determination written all over their faces."This time I will make sure that your big mouth will never be able to speak nonsense again, now and forever!"One of the six students approached Henry while unbuttoning the cuff of his shirt.As she saw the men about to attack Henry, an overwhelming worry arose in Libby's heart."Henry..." she murmured. Her face looked extremely panicked.She didn't want the young man she liked to be the target of Anicet's students' wrath.In such a critical situation, an idea came to her mind."Dad, we have to help Henry," the girl said, still holding her father's arm on her shoulder."You can ask Mr. Borida to forgive him!" Libby added.Besides the strange feelings that grew in her heart for Henry, the girl could never forget what the young man had done for her."Daughter, what
Besides a few of Anicet's disciples, almost all of Hayden's bodyguards present were cultivators.They undoubtedly had knowledge of the power of cultivation energy.And when they saw what Henry had just demonstrated in front of their eyes, a feeling of awe and fear appeared in their hearts at the same time."Is he really the same young man?" they wondered. "But why do I feel like I've seen the figure of someone completely different?"As if ignoring their gaze, Henry turned his eyes back."Miss Lane, you should leave this place," he said, inviting the girl to return to her father.When Henry had seen the Cultivator trying to harm Libby earlier, he had become increasingly vigilant.He knew that Anicet's disciples seemed to be targeting the girl as well as him."They have really crossed the line," he thought. "If they are allowed to continue, they will surely end up harming Miss Lane!"Henry was determined to teach them a lesson.Furthermore, "I won't let anyone take anything from this ho
