Chapter 949 – The Spiritually Collapsed Wealthy Man
*****As soon as the Prime Minister heard Xavier’s question, his spine turned rigid, suddenly appearing as if he had just been plugged into an invisible power source.“Yes, Grandmaster,” he replied with excessive respect, making Xavier’s eyebrow twitch.'Will you quit with the never-ending ‘Grandmaster’?' Xavier thought wearily to himself. ‘For the love of sanity, just once… call me Xavier.’But he swallowed the urge to correct the old man. Now wasn’t the time for that battle.Instead, he paused… hesitating just a fraction, and then finally, he asked sincerely, “Are you sure you aren’t doing anything at the moment? I might take up some of your time.”The moment those words left his mouth, however, the wealthy man standing near the entrance did something unintentionally comedic… he forced himself back to his senses and strained his ears like a starving man sniffing food.His neck extended just a little too far, his posture stiffening.‘Surely, he would have calmed down by now,’
Chapter 948 – An Erudite Grandmaster for a Reason
*****“Grandmaster,” the Prime Minister said, his voice strained with a mix of reverence and dread, “I know this can’t possibly make up for what they did, but… please… allow me to punish them by dismissing them from service, and nothing more.”His words trembled with sincerity and anxiousness, his voice carrying trembling hope and pleading.But the effect on the three guards… it was immediate and catastrophic.The moment the Prime Minister’s pleading and anxious sentence reached their ears, clarity returned to them like a slap, and… their blood turned cold.At that very instant, the captain, who had been struggling to maintain the last shred of dignity and composure left in him, abruptly collapsed beside the other two guards, landing on his knees so hard that the sound echoed, but they failed to react.Instead, all three stared straight ahead, their eyes wide, their pupils dilated, and their faces seemingly carved with sheer horror.They wanted to speak, to beg, and to plead fo
Chapter 947 – The Prime Minister’s Fear
*****Meanwhile, Xavier.At this moment, he was completely oblivious to the Blackwoods’ presence.It wasn’t because his perception had weakened, no… it was actually sharper than ever, capable of detecting threats long before they appeared.But he simply hadn’t bothered to sense his surroundings… there was no danger, so he didn’t pay any attention.The only presence he acknowledged was the group of ten people standing inside the building behind the glass doors, currently frozen stiff, their jaws dropped so low that they practically touched the floor, and their eyes so wide that they seemed ready to eject from their sockets.They looked as if they were witnessing a pig and a fish soaring majestically through the clouds.Xavier also noticed the two guards who were still sitting on their butts from the Prime Minister’s earlier shove, and the captain standing beside them… three grown men so petrified that they resembled malfunctioning mannequins.But Xavier spared them no attention

Chapter 946 – The Blackwoods’ Disbelief
*****The sight before the Blackwoods’ patriarch was something he could never… not in his greatest paranoia-induced nightmares, have ever predicted.Dang!And he wasn’t the only one left in that state.His first son and his granddaughter were frozen too, their minds punching the emergency stop button while their hearts attempted a full acrobatic routine inside their ribcages.But the cause of this overwhelming… no, cataclysmic shock wasn’t merely because the Prime Minister was bowing so low that his spine might consider early retirement.It wasn’t even because the Prime Minister was acting like a loyal subordinate to someone several decades younger than him… a detail that alone was strong enough to traumatize any witness.Yes, they were utterly floored by those reasons.But the real reason... the one that eclipsed every other emotion and vaporized their sanity... the one that left them beyond shock, beyond disbelief, and beyond language itself…It was because they knew the pe
Chapter 945 – A Shocking Moment II
*****Still outside the Prime Minister’s office building.At this moment, the world hadn’t merely grown quiet; instead, it felt as if existence itself had been unplugged… sound, motion, breath, and even the slightest tremor of life completely gone.The atmosphere was so still that it felt as though even the air had abandoned the scene, leaving behind a vacuum of disbelief.And then there were the people currently staring at the elderly Prime Minister, bowing.To say they were all “shocked” was nothing but a criminal understatement.“Shocked” was the kind of word you would use when you stub your toe, not when your entire worldview is forcibly reformatted.No… these people were completely obliterated by what they were currently seeing, their minds simply refusing to process it, as if the sight before them had exceeded their brain’s storage capacity.The Prime Minister of a mid-ranking city bowing… bowing, not to anyone but a young man in his mid-twenties.If that wasn’t shockin
