"Henry, since the first time I met you, I have trusted you! So I hope you won't ruin it!""Of course, Mr. Cloyd! I always stand by what I say! I am even willing to guarantee it with my own life if I lie or endanger Miss Isabella's safety!"After hearing Henry's sincerity, Cloyd finally made a decision."All right, everyone, follow me!"Hesitantly, the head of the Richardson family approached the door.Knock! Knock!"Master, are you all right?"But there was no answer from inside.Cloyd was a little worried. "Should I abandon my plan?" he wondered.Aware that the man was hesitating, Henry looked at him seriously and nodded to assure him that everything was all right.Cloyd put his hand on the door and knocked harder."Master, forgive me! Is everything okay?"As before, after a few seconds of waiting, there was still no response from inside.This time, Cloyd was worried.Not only was he worried that something might have gone wrong with Orin's treatment, but he was even more worried abou
With these words, Henry stared straight into Cloyd's face.Although Cloyd didn't want Henry to go too far with his guest, he reluctantly accepted the young man's challenge.For the sake of his daughter, he would do anything."Master, as Henry said, I will give you anything you want!" Cloyd bowed again, sincerely pleading for his daughter's recovery.Seeing this, a cunning light shone from Orin's face."I did not expect that my visit this time would bring such great benefits! This family is truly foolish, allowing me to manipulate them so easily!"He then looked at Henry and continued to speak in his heart. "But I can't let this rat live much longer, or he might cause me trouble later!"Orin closed his eyes and raised his face, pretending to be deep in thought."Cloyd, you made a big mistake by disobeying my orders! However, since you show a strong intention to rectify it, I will give you one more chance!"He opened his eyes and stared sharply at Cloyd, "Give me 1 billion dollars and l
Despite trying to choose his words carefully, Cloyd couldn't hide the disappointment on his face.He had hoped that this young man could help him persuade Master Dalbs to cure his daughter.Instead, he made the only person who could help his daughter leave.Before this, Cloyd had great faith in Henry.However, Orin, a renowned master healer, had gained recognition throughout the country over the years. How could Henry, a mere college professor, compare?Not only did Cloyd's faith in Henry begin to wane, but he felt a giant hammer strike his heart as he thought about his daughter's condition."Forgive me, my love! This is all my fault! I should have been able to protect you better!" he cried in his heart.While everyone else was drowning in sadness, Henry felt both joy and guilt.Joy, because he could finally get the old fraud out of the house.Guilt, however, for letting everyone sink into sadness and despair."Even Zane, who seemed so strong and resilient, looks like he has no hope!
Orin couldn't finish his words.What was happening in front of him was truly beyond his expectations.The Four Corners Illusion Spell is a protective spell placed at the four corners of a person or object.With this spell, anyone with malicious intentions towards the person or object will believe that they control or possess it.When in fact they only control it in their minds.When Orin ordered everyone to leave earlier, suspicion arose in Henry's heart."This is really strange! Why did he ask everyone to leave? If he really wants to heal Miss Isabella, couldn't he do it without all this drama?"So to protect Isabella, Henry pretended to tidy up the girl's bedsheets when he was actually casting his spell."Why? Are you surprised?" Henry grinned slyly."I can do it because I am a sorcerer too!"Just as Henry finished his words, Orin pulled a flat object out of his pocket and pointed it at Henry.Snap!The sound of a camera shutter from his phone was heard at the same time as the light
Disappointment was written all over Cloyd's face.However, a few moments later, he seemed to be deep in thought."Can you treat different diseases? I mean, you're an expert in ancient culture, right?I am curious if your knowledge system is sufficient to deal with modern problems?"Henry was a bit surprised by the question.Indeed, he possessed various knowledge about magic, potions, and if he accessed the archives in his mind, he might also have a complete set of medical knowledge about various diseases.Therefore, he said confidently, "Of course! Ancient treatments are reliable!If they're being neglected now, it's because the original knowledge of these treatments has started to disappear!Besides, mastering such treatments requires dedication and extremely high expertise!As fewer people study them, we'll find fewer of these types of treatments in the modern world!And to make matters worse, those who claim to have mastered ancient treatments are mostly just scammers looking for p
At 2:00 in the morning.When Henry arrived at his apartment, he packed some clothes.He didn't bring all his things because he wanted to go to Fairfield right away."No one will notice me if I leave now!"Henry locked the apartment door and put the key in an envelope, leaving it outside Margret's apartment door.With his suitcase in hand, he boarded the bus that would take him to Fairfield.After more than an hour, the bus began to enter the Fairfield area."No wonder Fairfield is the richest in Waterside! Even early in the morning like this, this city is still very lively!"In addition to the cars still moving on the streets, several nightclubs in some corners of the city were crowded with visitors.Their voices, combined with the thumping music played by the disc jockey, could be heard for hundreds of feet.Seeing this, Henry, who had initially thought of renting a hotel room, changed his mind."Didn't Margret give me a business card? Maybe I should go there right away!"After getti
For the next two hours, Henry cleaned the entire apartment: the living room, the bedroom, the bathroom, the kitchen, and the backyard.He also cleaned out the refrigerator and took out some food like vegetables, chicken, and eggs that were still usable.After cleaning all these ingredients, Henry turned on the stove and started cooking.In fact, Henry had a talent for cooking, a skill he inherited from his mother, as Harriett told him.As a result, the delicious aroma of stir-fry filled the kitchen in an instant.At that moment, Mia, still asleep in bed, suddenly felt disturbed by the tantalizing smell wafting into her nostrils.Rubbing her sleepy eyes, Mia woke up and stared into the kitchen."This food smells amazing! Who's cooking in the kitchen?"But before she could get off the couch, she was surprised again.Looking down at her body, she was still covered by a thick blanket, something she had never received in her life, except from her mother or her late father."Really? He cove
In the next fifteen minutes, they found themselves in a supermarket not far from Mia's apartment.Mia grabbed a shopping cart and pulled Henry toward the grocery section.The girl's first destination was the cereal aisle.As she picked out different kinds of cereal from the shelves, Mia glanced to her right and left from time to time, as if to make sure no one was watching."Are you okay?" Henry asked."Yes, I'm fine, of course!"She then walked over to the refrigerator, which contained several kinds of meat.She chose several kinds and took some pieces of beef and chicken out of the glass case and placed them in the cart.Once again, she went through the same routine of looking around to make sure the surroundings were safe.Since leaving the house, the girl had suddenly become quiet, and Henry, curious about her constant scanning, teased her."Don't tell me you don't have any money on you! Honestly, if someone sees what you're doing, they'll think you're about to commit theft."Henr
Boom!A massive explosion occurred again elsewhere.Boom!Boom!These explosions originated from the collision of two super-high energies, energies capable of destroying the earth.Each time an explosion occurred in one place, a hole no less significant than the hole caused by the comet collision would be created.This continued until it was impossible for anyone in the Avaloria to stay alive.Within a radius of a thousand kilometers, everyone and every other living creature would perish.Buildings would crumble too.Boom!Boom!Boom!It only lasted for ten seconds. But the destructive effects it produced were truly terrifying!"Not bad! It seems like your power has indeed increased significantly compared to before!"Although Noagi's words sounded like praise for Henry, the professor understood it was a hidden mockery.It was like the King of Hell was saying that even though Henry had increased in strength, it still wasn't enough to defeat the King of Hell."You talk too much! You'd b
Seeing his elite troops easily defeated by Henry, Neldor's anger became unbearable."You insolent! How dare you disrupt my life! I will not let you go!"After saying that, Neldor exerted all his strength and quickly teleported towards Henry.Puff!A moment later, he arrived in front of the youth in golden armor."You will die, you troublemaker!"Neldor swung his fist towards Henry's face.Punch!However, before his fist could hit the professor's face, Neldor felt something strange in his body.It couldn't move!"Damn! What's happening to my body?"Neldor then exerted his magical power, thinking that it would surely counterbalance his opponent's magical strength.But nothing changed.Not only did his body remain immobile, but more surprisingly, Henry seemed completely unaffected by his magical techniques."Damn! This is really damn! What kind of technique are you using?" Neldor exclaimed.Henry just smiled slightly."How could someone like you ever accept the fact that there's always a
After gazing satisfied at his troops and people, Neldor lifted the golden crown adorned with diamonds of various sizes and shapes, then directed it towards his head.However, before he could put it on, a giant fireball suddenly appeared in the sky.It was a burning comet heading directly towards them at high speed."Whoa, look up! Look at that!" exclaimed the people in the courtyard. "We need to get out of here right now!"In an instant, the joy they showed turned into panic and fear.The fear of terror was evident in all their eyes.If they didn't flee from the place immediately, the fireball would surely strike them."Danger! This is danger! Quickly leave this place! Go away now!""The people in the courtyard became very scared and panicked, rushing to leave the place right away.However, since Neldor hadn't completed his final procession, which was to wear the crown on his head, he gave Etjun a displeased look."No one is allowed to leave before I finish this procession! This is th
Henry did exactly what God Er asked of him."Aaa!"Quickly, God Athar then threw the black stone into Henry's mouth, causing his tongue to feel like it was burning as soon as the stone touched it.However, before he could think about what to do next, God Athar had already closed his mouth."Swallow!" the God said firmly.Not only did Henry feel the heat in his mouth, but his throat and stomach also felt the same unbearable heat.Although Henry was at the Celestial level, he couldn't withstand this excruciating sensation."Aaarggh!"The intense heat quickly spread throughout his body, making him feel like he was burning from the inside out.As a cultivator, he had never experienced cultivation as strong and terrible as this: it was the most torturous experience!After the heat reached every point in Henry's body, God Er looked towards God Athar."Now is the time!""Hmm!" Athar replied.They each held one of Henry's shoulders, channeling their energy.Athar channeled hot energy while Er
"Neldor, your greatest obstacle has now perished!"The King of the Hell teleported swiftly, even faster than the blink of an eye, then stood before Neldor who was still kneeling on the ground."There is no longer anyone on this earth who possesses Celestial-level power, except for you!"After saying so, the King of Hell looked towards the crack beneath the altar and then made a gesture of lifting his hand upward, as if pulling something.Simultaneously with his hand movement, the crack in the ground widened gradually, causing the earth to shake violently again.Shortly after, one side of the ground collapsed, revealing the belly of the earth filled with lava and sparks of fire, emitting a terrifying orange color.Tramp-tramp-tramp!The earth rumbled again.But this time not because of the tremors, but because of the foot soldiers emerging from the belly of the earth.One by one, they wore tightly enclosed steel armor from head to toe, numbering a thousand.The group of soldiers consis
After Neldor spoke like that, the earth shook violently, causing the monster and Henry to stop their speech and look around.Henry showed a worried expression on his face.His intuition seemed to tell him that something very... very bad was about to happen."Why is this?" he thought. "Why do I feel like my plan won't succeed?"Henry had hoped that by Neldor offering the King of the Hell a carcass as a sacrifice, the monster would suffer a bad fate.But now, he wasn't sure about it."Foolish, why didn't I consider it before?" Henry thought. "Neldor is the offspring of the King of Hell! Even if he does wrong, the king will surely forgive him!"Henry's expression grew even worse.On the contrary, Neldor showed something different.His face continued to show a happy expression with a wider smile on his lips."Hahaha! Finally! The King of Hell! You've come! You've come!"The shaking became stronger for a moment, causing the altar filled with pools of blood to suddenly crack.The longer the
Henry is on his way to the Golden Mountain. With his current level of strength, he does not need Avisuchus to escort him. Even though he is only using ten percent of his inner power, Henry can run very fast, even tens of times faster than a tiger, without feeling tired at all. "No doubt about it!" he thought to himself. "Neldor must be heading there!" Henry knew the monster's destination after observing King Barnabus's wrist. There was a black mark on the king's wrist, as if it had been clamped by a hard object for a very long time. However, it was impossible. Why would King Barnabus torture himself by pinching his own wrist until his skin was severely damaged and scarred? In Henry's judgment, there was only one answer to that. "King Barnabus wants to resurrect Neldor and prepare the gold and jewels to welcome him!" muttered Henry, breaking through the trees, leaping from branch to branch. Unfortunately, the king did not have enough power because only a cultivator at level t
Henry and Dritrix returned to the ruins of the ancient Fairfield Palace to search for clues as to where Neldor had taken Gatrix. After clearing some debris, Henry spotted a door leading to an underground chamber. "This is the door we went through earlier to retrieve the black box!" the girl exclaimed. Before Henry's arrival, the Laomen had taken Libby to show them the way to this place. The two of them then entered the door and walked through an underground corridor with walls made entirely of stone. Oil lamps had been lit on either side after hundreds of years of disuse. They walked for nearly half an hour before finally arriving at a very large room. With a size almost as large as a basketball court, the room didn't seem to be dark because of the abundance of light from the oil lamps. In the middle of the room was a black painted wooden coffin. The surface of this coffin was decorated with carvings of symbols and ancient scriptures. Driven by curiosity, Henry ignored other
Although the shape of the building was a bit unique, it was no different from any other ancient building. Apart from a few moss-covered stone walls, there was nothing special about it. However, Henry could sense a very strong magical energy, especially from the inside of the building. "Why did those scoundrels from Laomen imprison the girls here?" he muttered, thinking that with such strong magic, it wasn't safe for the girls to stay inside. "If anything happens to them, I won't forgive that sect! Even if I owe Makana a debt!" After feeling that there was no danger around him, Henry slowly stepped into the front entrance, the only access to the building, which strangely had no door leaves. However, if someone looked inside, they wouldn't be able to see anything because it was very dark. Of course, that wasn't a problem for Henry. His eyes could now see in the darkness almost as well as when he looked into the light. As soon as Henry walked through the door, the scent of fragr
