“It must be Caelum,” seethed Edward, “It looks like we have to fight against him here.”Instantly, Edward floored his own car. He even wanted to make it fly if possible since it was now dangerous for them. Numerous missiles came flying toward them mercilessly. Fortunately, Edward had activated his Life Skills Package, so he could easily drive his car like a pro. “Haha, there’s no way for you to escape this time,’ here came the familiar voice as the car behind them got closer. Sure enough, the voice came from none other than Caelum. He had gone back to the dungeon and found no corpses of Edward. Consequently, he was sure that he and his friend had not been killed by deadly black smoke. “It’s fortunate that you narrowed escaped from the dungeon,” shouted Caelum, “Now go to hell!” He kept firing the missiles at Edward’s car in hopes of killing him in the explosions. Yet, what pissed him off was that his missiles were always missing. When he was only a few meters away from Edward’s
"No, I still have value to you," Caelum suddenly grew tense. "And some advantages you can take. You might take me to Gluttony Hell, at least you can think of me as a hostage for a more secure negotiation." Edward gave a cold snort and said, "I know what's going through your mind. If I were to measure your value to me, I'd say it's depreciated by at least three-quarters." With that, Edward let his large, green hand tighten its grip on Caelum's soul. In just a few moments, Caelum cried out in pain, "No, please don't kill me. I told you I'm the nephew of the Gluttony Gang's leader. If I die, I can guarantee that our leader will eradiate you all. Trust me!" Edward paid him no mind and continued to tighten his control over Caelum's soul with that green hand. Caelum's eyes started to roll back, and it seemed like he was on the brink of passing out when Edward suddenly loosened the grip slightly. Caelum took a sharp breath, feeling like he had come back to life. However, when he even t

He felt as though truckloads of cash were pouring into his account.Just as he was basking in his newfound wealth, Cicci's face beamed on his scree
‘Roaring Thunder?” Edward exclaimed, wondering what he could do with it. His mind was read by his system instantly, which sent him a new text message. [Roaring thunder, a kind of pill that can help you cultivate in the lightning. Most people will be dead if they are hit by lighting. Yet, if you take this pill’ Roaring Thunder,’ it will make you immune to lightning and thunderous attack. On the contrary, you will be tempered by thunder and lightning of several ten thousand volts.] ‘Wow, that’s amazing,’ exclaimed Edward again, ‘I’ve never expected there’s such a pill in this world. I have to say there are quite a few precious pills here in this online store. It looks like I can shop often here. Cicci will be quite happy if I do.’ Edward was on cloud nine now. Without any further hesitation, Edward instantly consumed five thousand luxury points to get ‘Roaring Thunder’ which went into his item inventory immediately. ‘Well, I’d better take it now just in case,’ Edward thought, ‘I ha
"Ah..." Caelum's body plummeted rapidly, and he felt his demise was all but certain this time. The cliff was unbelievably high, a mind-boggling abyss that seemed to stretch at least five kilometers deep. He closed his eyes, surrendering to the howling winds swirling past him. The gusts stung his face, and although the wind kissed his cheeks, it cut deeper than a knife into his heart. Suddenly, Edward's voice echoed in his ears. "Rest assured, I won't let you go down that easily. Since you killed Laura with no remorse, I'll torment you in every conceivable way, time and time again." Edward's voice was as cold as ice. It looked like Caelum was getting his just desserts. Caelum opened his eyes to find Edward hurtling down the cliff right alongside him. It offered some small comfort – if he were to meet his end, at least he'd have some company. "You're a devil, Edward. If you'd choose to end your life this way, why torment me like this?" Caelum exclaimed in fury. "Me?" Edward sneer
Edward reached out his hand, and in the blink of an eye, a chill ran down his spine as the Celestial Gem soared right into his waiting chest. Yet, the extraordinary unfolded before his very eyes. Edward felt an overwhelming surge of power coursing through his veins, a sensation like no other. In an instant, his entire body turned translucent, akin to the purest glass. Edward experienced an unprecedented blessing that could only be attributed to the Celestial Gem. Was this the fabled "light at the end of the tunnel" that he'd heard whispers of? His heart raced as he involuntarily assumed a lotus position, eyes shut tight. Darkness was only thing he could see in his shut eyes, but the energy emanating from the pearl illuminated the abyss inside his eyes, bathing everything in a radiant glow. "Could this be what they mean by 'seeing the light'?" Edward mused silently. "It's simply marvelous." Before long, a comforting warmth enveloped his entire being, like snuggling under a cozy win
Instantly, there was another huge explosion when celestial ice arrows met those fiery swords halfway. Edward, handsome and unstrained, exuding an aura of confidence, became more overbearing with every step toward Regina. “Hey, what do you think of my counterattack?” sneered Edward. “What kind of other moves do you have? Show me more!” Hearing that, Regina was almost hitting the roof. Before she could launch another round of attacks, Edward swiftly maneuvered behind her and lightly flicked her head, causing her coiffed hair to quickly come undone. Now, with her unbound tresses streaming over her shoulders, she was indeed an unparalleled beauty. “What are you doing?” seethed Regina, glaring at Edward. “You’re acting like a lascivious bastard. Apparently, you’re courting your own death.” Yet, Edward, a vibrant youth with unparalleled manliness, immediately flirted, “I like to fight with a beautiful girl. I have to say if you’re not my foe, I probably will fall in love with you. I
Naturally, Regina closed her eyes, decided to let Edward do anything to her. Edward leaned close enough until he could even hear the beatings of her heart. Glancing at her ample part of her generous bosom, Edward felt blood started to rush both to his heart and the most private part of his body under the equator, just like a cannon erecting up to the sky, ready to send bombs at any moment. Yet, Edward knew he had to contain his excitement as he had promised his girlfriend that he would restrain himself and wouldn’t do anything that would harm their relationship. Thus, though drooling over the beauty of Regina, Edward just swallowed a mouthful of saliva and then calmed himself down. “Well, open your eyes, Regina,” Edward said with an awkward smile, ‘Actually, I’ve got a girlfriend and I love her very much. I won’t do anything that would harm my relationship with her. Besides, you know, I was saving you not because I wanted to get something from you. I’ve told you, you’re a free will
