Upon hearing the threat, Zachary's body began to break out in a cold sweat.

He had come to this place to seek protection from Laomen.

If he were to die at their hands, wouldn't his visit here be in vain, for it would be the same as giving his life for nothing?

Still, Zachary answered quickly.

"I would not dare to lie, Master!"

Hamada then turned to his subordinates.

"Check every room in this suite!"

As the best suite in the hotel, there were about seven rooms in all.

A few moments later, one of the men in formal attire spoke, bowing his head.

"Master, as he said, there is no one in this suite!"

"What? Is that true?" Zachary thought.

He didn't know that after Sabrina, the sixth sister of Meilihui's ten disciples, successfully killed Sedera, they took the man's body and burned it.

They also cleaned the crime scene of any suspicious objects or signs.

They did this to cover their tracks.

On the one hand, Zachary felt relieved because it seemed he had escaped danger.

But it also made him a

    Meanwhile, in the golden cave."What are we going to do now?" Mia asked, sitting with her legs stretched out over the sea of gold.They had been walking on the sea of gold for hours, but it seemed that they couldn't find a way out."If only you had brought your phone, maybe we could call for help!" she said again.Earlier, after Henry had received a call from Ira, he had been too panicked to bring his phone."I'm sure there must be a way out!" Henry replied with a forced smile.Mia then lay down on the gold."Do you know what I'm thinking right now?" the girl asked, turning her head to face him."I am grateful for what has happened in my life lately! Because in the end, it led me to a life that is a million times better!" she continued, smiling sweetly.For some reason, Henry was pleased to hear this.Without realizing it, he then said, "I'm also happy because I finally get to meet you!" he said, smiling back at her.Mia, on the other hand, frowned at his words."I mean, we found this

    After two exhausting weekend days, Henry was now preparing for his new responsibilities at the Faculty of Arts at Fairfield College.Meanwhile, Mia had decided to take a leave of absence today.Tomorrow she would go to the bank to hand in her letter of resignation.With unlimited financial resources behind her, she had decided to start her own business, although she was unsure of the specific industry she would be in.She had to think about it carefully.Since there was nothing to do today, the girl was sleeping in her room."I'm leaving! Breakfast is on the table!" Henry called as he closed the front door."Hmmm!" Mia mumbled back, pulling her blanket back over her body.Henry walked a few blocks before stopping at a bus stop.Five minutes later, the bus that would take him to downtown Fairfield arrived.Perhaps because it was Monday, there were many people waiting to board the bus. Everyone seemed to be busy with their own business.When it was Henry's turn to board, he saw that all

    "Please don't do this to me! I beg you!"Henry was about to knock on the door when the voice echoed in his ears again.It was the voice of a girl who seemed frightened."Quiet! Do you want the project?"The intimidating tone belonged to a young man."But..." the girl said again."I said shut up!" the young man snapped."You know there's no such thing as a free lunch?So you can at least shut up and let me enjoy your body a little!"From the way he spoke, it sounded like he was forcing his will on the girl.Just by listening to their conversation, Henry knew that something was wrong.Especially when he saw a small sign on the door that read "Dean's Room", he knew he had to do something.He could not allow a bad deed to happen in his room.Creak!Henry opened the door without knocking.He saw a black-haired girl sitting in front of the Dean's desk.Although Henry couldn't see her face as she bowed, he was sure from her hairstyle and jacket that it was the girl he had just met.Meanwhile

    Jason pulled his cell phone out of his pocket and hastily contacted someone."Dad, hurry!Someone is trying to make a scene in your office!I tried to reason with him, but he's so stubborn!"Hearing the young man speak to his father, Henry could only shake his head."This boy really needs a lesson," he thought."Hey, just wait!After my dad gets here, he'll drag you straight to jail!" Jason said with a grin on his face.Henry was about to go over to Jason, but suddenly he remembered something."Didn't I meet the Vice Dean? Maybe I should see how he handles this!"At that moment, the girl couldn't hold back anymore.Rising from her seat, she quickly approached Henry."What are you waiting for? Get out of here before Mr. Marshall comes!If he finds out you've been messing with his son, he'll definitely fire you!" she said, unable to hide the panic on her face.At that moment, Henry almost laughed at the girl's words, but he restrained himself as much as possible."Fire me? How is that p

    As Elton said this, he showed the girl a satisfied and proud expression, and reached both of his hands forward to Vivienne's shoulders, squeezing them."It looks like Jason's rude attitude didn't come out of nowhere," Henry thought to himself.Seeing what the old man was doing, he remembered what Jason had done to the girl before."That's clearly inherited from the old man," he thought again.At first, he thought that Elton was an old man who, though not as good and wise as Oliver, was at least close to the personality of the former Dean.However, just by watching what he was doing to the girl in front of him, it seemed that Henry had now understood the true nature of this man.Meanwhile, the girl, who had no bad thoughts about the old man, just smiled happily at Elton's compliments.However, after some time, Elton seemed unwilling to remove his hands from her shoulders, making Vivienne slightly uncomfortable.Slowly shifting her body, Vivienne spoke. "So, do you agree with the projec

    This is the effect Elton wanted.A year ago, he received a strange potion from someone at an herbal medicine shop. "Give this powder to your wife when the weather is hot!I guarantee that the more she feels the heat on her body, the more she will want you to touch her!"At first, Elton wasn't too convinced.However, since he had spent a considerable amount of money on this potion, he felt compelled to try it.Unexpectedly, the powder actually worked, as Elton saw that the girl seemed genuinely "tormented"."Miss, you seem very uncomfortable! May I help you?" he said, trying to be as polite as possible, even though he was very eager to touch the girl's body right away."Mr. Marshall..."That was all that came out of Vivienne's mouth, because at that moment she had the feeling that another man was standing in front of her.It was someone else.It was a young man who was willing to sacrifice his job to help her!Seeing this, Vivienne's mind felt torn.On the one hand, she felt it was a l

    Meanwhile, outside the lobby on the first floor. Elton arrived at the lobby in such a hurry that he forgot to put on his suit, eager to greet the new dean who he thought had not arrived yet. Shortly thereafter, however, his heart slowed a bit as he saw a luxurious black coupe enter the front gate of the faculty complex. Two minutes later, the coupe stopped in front of the lobby and turned slightly to the right, stopping in the parking lot where only a luxurious white sedan was parked. Compared to the coupe, however, the sedan seemed insignificant. This area was reserved for the Dean and Vice Dean, so there were not many cars to be seen there. Hastily, Elton walked around the car to reach the driver's door. After briefly lowering his head, he opened the door for the driver inside. At that moment, a woman in her thirties, formally dressed in a red dress, stepped out of the car. In addition to her exceptionally beautiful face, she had a very proportionate body and fresh, charming

    When the door opened, Hannah saw something surprising.In front of her stood a handsome young man who was the reason she had come to this place.Dressed in a blue suit, he seemed to be busy opening archival notes in a large cabinet in one corner of the room."Henry!" she exclaimed. "Have you been here since earlier?"Hearing someone call his name, Henry turned to the side and immediately put the bundle of archives in his hands."Miss Hannah, I just arrived!"Hannah then saw a long, new, and very clean-looking sofa in the other corner of the room that made her want to sit on it for a while.She approached the sofa.But before she could put her body on the couch, Henry suddenly grabbed her left hand very quickly and very gently."Miss, I have never sat in this chair before!" He said, pointing with his other hand to the dean's chair."And if it weren't for what you did to me, I don't know if I would have the chance to sit in it in the future," he continued."So may I ask you for another

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!

    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!

    "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

    Chapter 230 - Searching for a Clue

    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
