Two days later, within the confines of Diana's residence in MidRidge, a tempest of emotions unfolded. Gina, Diana's mother, vented her frustrations and discontent towards Victor with a barrage of curses and insults.

"That useless husband of yours, incapable of getting anything right! My friends have sons in law who are prosperous, with lavish cars and esteemed professions. Yet, fate cursed me with such a worthless son in law, and now, when he should be present, he flees. Diana, you must divorce him. I won't tolerate that impoverished failure in this household."

Diana, grappling with her own frustrations, retorted, "Mom, that's enough. Victor is making an effort. Besides, didn't he recently assist you in securing fifty thousand dollars? You squandered it all in one go."

Gina, seething with anger, responded, "So what! Other sons-in-law shower their mothers-in-law with far more and lavish them with expensive gifts. You are divorcing him, and that's final, unless you want me to take dras

    At that moment, a resounding voice echoed from the Gardner family's servant proclaiming, "Solomon Titus of the esteemed Titus family has graced us with his presence."Upon hearing this announcement, the entire Gardner family exhibited varying degrees of surprise, with the notable exception of Grandpa Gardner, who appeared to be anticipating Solomon's arrival.Diana's countenance shifted into a blend of astonishment and frustration, her features betraying a mix of shock and ire. A bad feeling swiftly overcame her. Had she been aware of Solomon's impending visit, she might have chosen to defy her grandfather's directive and abstain from attending. Despite her deep appreciation for familial bonds, there were moments when her family's actions left her feeling exasperated and weary.The Titus family in MidRidge, was considered a second rate family, while the Gardner family, was perceived as a third rate family, so there was no way they could possibly match up to the Titus family's wealth

    Julius whispered, his unease evident, "What brings Martin Davis to this gathering?" Despite Davis's wealth, he didn't hold sway over MidRidge's elite families, who maintained a delicate balance of power by collaborating against potential rivals.Although Martin Davis ranked as the wealthiest individual in MidRidge, he didn't wield more influence than the established first ranked families. It was more accurate to say he stood on equal footing with them, and these influential families often united to safeguard their privileged positions, thwarting any attempts by outsiders to ascend their ranks.The top families in MidRidge were not allies but rather they fought against themselves several times. They only united together in several cases.Martin's standing in MidRidge was upheld by the support of the Parker family and his astute business acumen, which contributed significantly to maintaining his favorable position within the intricate social hierarchy of the town.Martin swiftly entere

    The seven elders of the Warden Clan seemed to have been closely observing Victor, waiting for the precise moment he adorned the attire they had provided. As soon as he completed the dressing ritual, they promptly emerged to greet him.Victor, with a light-hearted chuckle, quipped, "Can I at least catch my breath? Or are you all determined to suffocate me right here?"The atmosphere was filled with joy as everyone wore a cheerful expression, except for the second elder, whose countenance remained cold and unyielding. Victor, attempting to lighten the mood, commented, "Second elder, shouldn't you embrace the festivity? It's not every day we get to celebrate like this. I assume celebrations are not a frequent occurrence in this community." Despite Victor's attempt to engage her in conversation, his words fell silent as soon as the second elder cast a frosty gaze in his direction.The Seventh elder chuckled heartily, "Pay no heed to her stern demeanor; beneath that serious façade, she's

    With efficiency marking their departure, Victor, Michael, and Ella wasted no time bidding farewell to the Warden Clan and commencing their drive back to the bustling city. The noticeable absence of Moke from their company hinted at his engagement in other pressing matters.Once the trio ventured beyond the confines of the village, Victor decided it was time to reawaken his phone. The device had been deliberately switched off during their stay to maintain a respectful silence, ensuring that he wasn't disturbed during his stay at the Warden Clan.Putting his phone back on, he glimpsed through the countless calls and messages that was sent by Zion, Martin, Boss Kent and Diana.He paid less attention to the others, and clicked on his wife's message, it read, “Just a checkup message. My head is filled with thoughts of you, I miss you terribly, I hope you're fine where you are. I love you so much darling."Victor, intrigued by his wife's newfound boldness, contemplated calling her back bu

    Solomon's countenance lit up with joy as he envisioned finally capturing Diana, who had eluded him for so long. His thoughts harbored a disdainful undertone, deeming her a "pretentious bitch" to himself, with intentions of discarding her after exploiting her.Accompanied by his father, Mr. Titus, Solomon confidently strolled toward the entrance, only to be intercepted by Grandpa Gardner and the other members of the Gardner family.Engaging in a courteous exchange, Grandpa Gardner greeted Mr. Titus who reciprocated by a nod. Solomon, wearing a confident smile, greeted Grandpa Gardner and hinted at the impending familial connection, saying, "Good morning, Grandpa Gardner. I will soon become your grandson in law."Curiosity tinged his voice as he asked about Diana's whereabouts.

    As Victor and Diana swayed gracefully on the dance floor, a subtle question escaped Victor's lips, "Are you enjoying this?"Diana responded with an affirming nod, curiosity gleaming in her eyes. Eager to unravel the enchantment of the evening, she was on the brink of inquiring about the magic that had brought them to this moment. Almost telepathically, Victor sensed her unspoken query and delicately pressed a finger against her lips, ushering a hushed silence.In a whispered assurance, he urged, "Just savor the present." A shroud of mystery enveloped the pair, whose opulent celebration had taken place atop the uncharted realms of the WestRidge Hotel, a location previously off-limits to all. The clandestine affair of this enigmatic and affluent couple quickly became the talk of the town, spreading like wildfire through the eager whispers of intrigued onlookers.Upon Diana's arrival at the hotel, there was a notable absence of any photographs capturing her presence; no images of her c

    Victor halted in his tracks, compelled to pause by the sudden outburst that reached his ears. Swiftly turning in the direction of the voice, he found a young lady, elegantly attired and seemingly of the same age as him, swiftly making her way toward him. Upon a single glance, Victor discerned that she hailed from a wealthy family.Approaching Victor with an air of urgency, the young lady, without preamble, extended her hand and delivered a resounding slap. Victor, caught off guard by this unexpected turn of events, stood in disbelief. Here he was, intending to offer assistance, only to find himself on the receiving end of an unexpected and stinging rebuke.As he received the sharp slap, his gaze swiftly met Ella and Michael, who had trailed him and now found themselves amidst the onlookers. Despite their instinct to intervene, the look in his eyes silently conveyed a plea for restraint.Within the surrounding crowd, certain individuals who had previously cautioned Victor against a

Naturally, people's breakthrough were normal and there were no many special things to accompany their breakthrough but it was different for Victor. Victor was a special person and as such some of his cultivation breakthroughs were very special and happened with some special events or elements.John 1 was quick to realise this and immediately rushed to attack Victor but the same way he moved forward, he was blown back almost immediately, there was nothing he could do to stop Victor's breakthrough.John 1 looked at Michael and his two brothers, in the next moment, he appeared there with the quickest speed.

    Victor directed his gaze towards Michael and expressed, "I may not possess extensive knowledge about the roar of a lion, but based on what i have seen you do, I'm willing to give it a shot and see what I can do." Observing Victor's willingness, Michael nodded in agreement.In the ensuing moment, Victor let out a resounding roar, its intensity heightened by the surge of his spiritual energy. While not matching the sheer potency of Michael's lion like roar, Victor's ordinary roar possessed enough force to unsettle those who had encircled them.As the men staggered to the ground, momentarily disoriented, Victor and Michael seized the opportunity to advance swiftly, unleashing a barrage of powerful and precise strikes in their coordinated assault.Michael's thunderous lion roar possessed the formidable capability to render the less resilient individuals unconscious or induce bleeding from their ears and various facial regions.

    In concurrence, Victor made the decision to return to their lodging, and this time, Linda accompanied him, her tenacious nature compelling her to follow. Victor acknowledged that their current hotel, where they had been residing, would inevitably be discovered, but despite this awareness, he opted to revisit the place.While Victor possessed the ability to conceal himself effortlessly—dispatching Michael to the Wilston family and directing Linda to her home, and subsequently altering his appearance with the chameleon mask—he found this approach too straightforward. His desire extended beyond mere evasion; he aimed to assert dominance and subjugate the prominent families of Palue under his control.Upon arriving at the hotel, Victor promptly retired to his room, while Michael and Linda also opted for accommodation. Battling fatigue, Victor succumbed to the need for rest, dozing off for about thirty minutes. However, his tranquility was abruptly disrupted by a knock on his door.Risi

    After the video concluded, the security guard interrogating Victor asked, "Given the undeniable evidence, what is your response now?"Victor chuckled, as if finding amusement in a jest, and retorted, "Evidence? Are you referring to the fabricated lies and concoted falsehoods?"Rising from his seat with an apparent intent to depart, Victor's movement triggered a swift response from the surrounding security guards, who promptly brandished their firearms and aimed them at him. The questioning guard pressed on, "Why did you take the life of the mayor's son?" He persisted, adding, "The mayor is en route, and answers are imperative."Of course, Victor was not afraid of the mayor but he didn't want to wait here to see the mayor, he wanted to leave and see how deep Wayne Lois's game could be. Besides, people would never believe the evidence was fake and him escaping was another proof to them but being the person who had a feud with the Lois family, he understood so much.In the next moment,

    Victor and Malik swiftly refreshed themselves before making their way to an upscale boutique to acquire some luxurious clothing.Exiting the boutique, as they prepared to hail a taxi, a black car abruptly pulled up in front of them, halting with a screech. Emerging from the vehicle was none other than Linda, the daughter of Samuel.Victor clearly surprised to see her here immediately, "What are you doing here?"Linda's smile widened in response, and she shared, "I had a hunch that you were planning to make an unexpected entrance at the Lois family's gathering. Naturally, I wanted to be a part of the festivities."Victor, feigning innocence, narrowed his eyes and played dumb, saying, "I have no idea what you're referring to. Michael and I are just here for some casual shopping."Linda deftly seized the invitation from Victor's pocket, a swift movement that caught him off guard, revealing his lack of anticipation. Her hands moved with a purpose, extracting the card with nimble precisio

    Victor drew in a profound breath, affirming his consent with a nod. The swift pace of preparations for the ceremony caught Malik and Michael off guard, yet not entirely unexpected. The duo found themselves taken aback by this sudden turn of events, but deep down, they acknowledged that Victor's exceptional nature and innate ability to command attention and dominate were ever present, ensuring his influence wherever he ventured.The ceremony unfolded with simplicity, progressing seamlessly. Following its conclusion, Victor convened a meeting with Jonathan and the respected elders.In addressing the assembly, Victor articulated, "Primarily, I wish to clarify my reluctance to assume the role of the Wilston family head. Although I may hold the position nominally, I am committed to entrusting Jonathan with the overarching responsibilities.""He will retain authority over day to day matters, exercising decision making autonomy, except in cases of utmost significance."Jonathan found himsel

    A hush fell over the meeting hall as all eyes focused on Jonathan. The anticipation lingered before he addressed the assembly, pondering aloud, "Do you think he should try if he could inherit it?"The one eyed elder took a thoughtful pause before voicing his reservations, "He doesn't share our lineage. It contradicts our longstanding traditions."In response, Jonathan interjected, offering a counterpoint, "The previous leader wasn't a Wilston by birth, yet her influence is the cornerstone of our current knowledge. Without her, the Wilston family was just a struggling traditional medical family."The one eyed elder lapsed into thoughtful silence before breaking it after a minute, asking, "To what extent are you acquainted with his influence?"Jonathan furrowed his brow, reflecting on the matter. "It's hard to gauge precisely, but during the auction, his two companions were very young and both were at the peak of the Noble realm, displayed a clear hierarchy with him.""Their actions ind

    "Indeed, he's not dumb," remarked Jonathan. He paused briefly before delving further into the matter, explaining,"Yet, his inability to speak seems to be rooted in psychological challenges. It's likely that some stimuli connected to his past experiences might serve as a catalyst for him to verbalize. The specifics remain uncertain, though."Victor acknowledged the information with a nod, expressing his gratitude, "Alright, thank you for shedding light on this."Jonathan expressed regret, stating, "I apologize for not being able to assist you with any of your requests."In response, Victor responded with a reassuring smile and said, "No worries, it's perfectly fine."Jonathan expressed his commitment, "I will ngage in a conversation with the elders, attempting to persuade them to allow your friend to learn pill making and traditional medicine.""Thank you.

    HE CAN TALK?!

    "I am Garvin, serving as the head of the security guards and chief guardian for the esteemed Wilston family," declared the commanding figure who led the men that surrounded Victor, Michael, and Malik. He strode ahead, the trio trailing behind, until he halted abruptly. Raising his hand, Garvin gestured and executed a series of signals. In an instant, the panoramic view for Victor, Malik, and Michael underwent a dramatic transformation.Gone were the towering mountains and dense bushes that previously filled their view. In their place stood an expansive compound adorned with distinct villas, each exuding an ancient ambiance that added a unique character to the surroundings. It was as if they were transported to a different era.Infacr, the Wilston family functioned as a self contained community, and as Garvin, the head of the Wilston family's guards, guided Victor, Michael, and Malik through the vast Wilston family compound, he took the chance to show and acquaint them with various ar
