With each ingredient William touched, the poison was cleansed and the ingredient improved to a whole new level of tastefulness.

Then, William began to work.

However, by now, 3 minutes had already been expended with Caleb far ahead of him, but William didn't panic and moved at a leisurely pace, clearly enjoying the preparations.

Soon enough, the meals were prepared, with Caleb finishing first and William completing his two minutes later.

Caleb grinned triumphantly while also mocking William inwardly.

'I actually thought you noticed the minute traces of poison in the ingredients which was why you didn't dare to cook. If you had decided not to cook, it would have been a means to humiliate you but I guess your pride made you unwilling to back down. Now you'll see, your actions will mark you down as an enemy for life.’

A group of judges were picked out, each one a member of the upper echelons of the gathering with Zayn and Omar among the judges.

Even Mr. Lincoln was there along with two ot

    Victoria could tell that something was wrong but what it was, she couldn't quite figure out.All she knew was that if she left, William would be in danger, and she didn't wish for that, but then again, if she stayed, she would be the one in danger.Taking a deep breath, she intoned. “Mr. Khan, I don't know if you remember me.”“I am well aware of your identity, Miss Smith.”“Great, so you understand that I am not someone that you can just chase away as you please.”“Miss Smith, it is best you excuse us. The discussion myself and Mister Belmont are about to have would be best done with some privacy.”“I see.” Victoria glanced at William who nodded, letting her know it was okay to leave.Faced with no other choice, Victoria ended up taking her leave while William remained.Silence persisted for a few seconds before William decided to break the ice with a question.“I just want to know one thing. Did you have a hand in what happened to your father?... I have reason to believe that.”The

    Snape never expected that he would not even have a chance to fight back.He was killed by his opponent in a mere second!“You are too weak!” William sneered coldly as he flung him away as if he were throwing a piece of trash.He said it in a low voice, but his words were as loud as thunder in the ears of the middle-aged Omar.Omar had seen countless powerful men in his life but he had never seen a cultivator at the sixth stage killed so quickly that he didn't even get a chance to fight back!He died even worse than a chicken!The whole process was so swift that Omar wasn't even able to be of any use.He stared at William in horror as he thought to himself. “Don't tell me this bastard has long since surpassed the sixth stage?’In the cultivation world, all cultivators went through stages, with each stage providing them with an exponential boost in power.The first ten stages were considered the toughest to get through, and due to the sparse spiritual energy in the current world, very f

    Although it was only one move, Omar was now completely certain that his opponent was very powerful.William must have at least reached the ninth stage!For a while none made a move, allowing Omar to stare at William with a terrified look in his eyes.His hand was trembling and he could feel that his hand hand had gone almost completely numb.A trace of fear flashed across his eyes as he said. “Just who exactly are you?”There was no way that the young man before him was an ordinary man.The fact that he had saved Zayn was already an outlier.Following that, his feats left an indelible mark in Omar's mind, letting him know that he had made a horrible mistake in his manner of approach.‘How could someone so young possibly reach the ninth stage?’The only explanation for such an incredible feat was that the young man before him was a martial arts genius who had begun cultivating since young, which allowed him to reach the ninth stage. Just then, William took a step forward and vanished,

    William swiftly found himself stuck between a rock and a hard place as he was attacked on two fronts.On one end were armed guards, all of whom were cultivators and carried guns loaded with spiritual bullets, and on the other end was Omar, who had decided to launch a final attack in a bid to ensure mutual destruction. William didn't dare to underestimate either of the attacks as he understood that a simple mistake was enough to make a great giant.For him, he couldn't risk dying, not yet… not when there was much to do.And so, he acted with the thought of preservation at the forefront.He swiftly grabbed Omar, evading his attack, and then used him as a shield to avoid the incoming bullets.Omar didn't even get a chance to cry out as he was riddled with holes, turning him into cheese in an instant.And so, he lost his life.William thought the armed guards would stop but he couldn't have been more wrong as they increased their firing rate, completely destroying Omar's body, making sur

    Darnell moved through the woods accompanied by 7 of his subordinates, each one armed to the teeth with rifles and cold weapons.He and the rest of those he was with had been given a single directive; kill William Belmont.Though they served as guards of the Khan family, they were actually more killers than guardians.They had been recruited after Zayn's supposed loss to dementia with Omar the reason they were selected.In truth, they were Omar's attempts to slowly erase everything Zayn had done by implanting his own men while also putting those who were against him in their place.Unfortunately, Omar was dead but Darnell didn't much care.To think he was the first person that started shooting the moment he saw William and he didn't stop shooting even after William used Omar as a shield.It was a rather exhilarating experience, and he had to thank William for allowing him to experience it.For that, Darnell, who enjoyed killing targets slowly, decided to end William swiftly.It was his

    Victoria was driving towards her home when she suddenly noticed that a strange car was tailing her.At first, she thought she was overthinking things.But it swiftly became clear that she was correct in her assessment as the car continued to trail behind her and what was worse, it had begun to gain on her.Realizing that she was in danger, she didn't hesitate to speed up in a bid to reach her home quickly but that only caused the people tailing her to abandon any notion of stealth as they chased after her aggressively, swiftly catching up to her before she could get very far.Victoria barely managed to remain calm as she understood that if she was caught, she might not escape alive, so she kept on driving, even as the car was close.Just as she turned a corner, the car came too close for comfort and without hesitation, rammed into her car, causing her car to spiral out of control.Victoria screamed in terror the few seconds before the car slammed into a waiting wall, causing the airba

    When William arrived, Victoria had already had her wrist broken and her ankle crushed.It was clear that Khalid was trying to torture her before ultimately ending her life.He didn't know when he moved, but he did, and he moved with intense fury in his heart.His spiritual energy was like a rabid dog and his eyes blazed with a righteous anger that was unlike any other. William crossed the distance between him and Khalid with a single step, appearing next to the bastard and preventing him from destroying Victoria's throat.Victoria opened her eyes only to lay eyes on him and despite the pain she was experiencing, she still displayed a joyous expression as she muttered. “You came for me.”The next moment, she passed out, and William moved to support her while Khalid backed away in fright; his eyes widened in terror as he stared at William's exposed back. At the forefront of his mind was how William had somehow managed to breach his defense and approach him undetected.Following that w

    When William entered the hospital, he noticed John standing in a corner along with a burly man whose bulky muscles rippled under his clothes,, and his knuckles were covered with calluses.This man was obviously an experienced fighter.Judging from the somber air he was faced with, William could guess that something had gone wrong as he approached John and the burly man.“William.” John greeted him as he rushed over with some worrying news. “I'm sorry, I was too late. By the time I arrived, the nurses told me that someone had already taken Celia and left.”“I see,” William muttered before glancing at the burly man next to John.He was familiar with the individual.His name was Duncan, and he was John's head of security and was a Stage Six cultivator who focused on bodybuilding.“What do we do now?... I'm tracking her position but it might take some time.” John said only for William to respond.“That won't be necessary.”“Huh?... But why?”“They will send for me soon,” William said and

    “Watch your mouth, asshat!” Harold coldly said only for William to raise a brow with his hands in his pocket.Snorting derisively, William soon left with Victoria while Harold could only stare at Victoria's endowed behind. Clicking his tongue as he struggled to understand why William was always so lucky with the ladies, Harold turned to leave only to get a call at that moment.Furrowing his brows, he picked it up only to discover that it was Elena Kingston.He went wide-eyed in an instant as he had a feeling that something bad was about to happen.Trembling, he answered the call. “Hello.”“Harold, you bastard!... How dare you do this?... What the hell are you doing at Magnificent Club with some other bitch!... Have you forgotten that I'm the one that got you the invite, yet you are spending it on another woman?”“That…”“I'm on my way there right now and if it turns out that you are there, don't think that you'll be able to survive my wrath!” After saying that, the call ended, leavi

    Starting with the first thug, William dealt with each one without mercy, ensuring that by the time he was down to the last man, the thug had already wet himself in fright, his body trembling as he stared wide-eyed at William as though he were a demon.“You are the one they mentioned.” The thugs remarked as he took a step back.“Hmm?”“I knew your face was familiar, you are William Belmont.”William was surprised and asked. “You know me?”The thug gulped anxiously. “Yes, of course!... Mr. Belmont, I'm so sorry, this is all a misunderstanding.”Then, he yanked off his mask, revealing a face covered in scars.“I'm Bobby and I work for the Sinister Six.”“I see.” “I'm sorry, sir; if we had known it was you, we wouldn't have dared to come near you!”The other thugs finally caught on, realizing that the man they had been sent after was no small individual.They swiftly scrambled to their feet to apologize. “This is a huge misunderstanding!”“Please, have a smoke, Mister Belmont.

  • I've got a job for you

    After apologizing to William, Celia's father turned to Ava and Andre. “William here has warned us that the pill was fake and dangerous, but you two were the loudest objectors. I don't even know what to say about your foolishness anymore.”,Ava and Andre stood awkwardly with lowered heads.To think that their father had done the same thing but he was blaming them alone. The doctor's ears perked up at this exchange as he asked with a frown. “Pill?... Are you, by any chance, talking about a medicinal pill from the Heavenly Orchard?”Ava thought the doctor might have some insight and eagerly replied. “Yes, it's exactly that. Doctor, you can tell that the pill grandpa took was a genuine pill, right?”“Hmm, well…”“Heh, I knew it couldn't be fake since Harold got them directly from Heavenly Orchard. It's perfectly normal for Grandpa to faint. His body was just too weak for such powerful medicine.”Ava had already begun to toot her own horn, only for her analysis to be met with a cold laugh

  • Ava, shut up

    William didn't owe the Rodriguez family anything and if not for his relationship with Diego, he wouldn't even be breaking bread with them.He could be anywhere else and he wouldn't have to go through the humiliation they put him through.Yet, time and again, he had been forced to step up and get them out of trouble, only to end up getting insulted.At this point in time, he was all but done with taking things lying down.He didn't wish to show the side he only showed to those he hated, but the Rodriguez family was pushing him closer to that line every single time their paths crossed. “William, please,” Celia muttered, only to receive a cold glare from him, causing her to back away in fright.Then, without saying anything, he stepped forward and quickly pressed several pressure points on Diego's body to stop the bleeding.With some therapeutic massage, Diego's breathing eventually steadied. If not for his good relationship with Diego and the fact that the old man was nothing like his

  • Don't push me

    Celia frowned and said. “William, you may know something about medicine as a doctor but the medicinal pill is a closely guarded secret of the Heavenly Orchard. Claiming you know about it is ridiculous.”Harold, who has been watching with a smile, chimed in, “Since William claims my pill is fake, perhaps he could explain exactly how?”“A fake is a fake. What more explanation is needed?” William retorted. Harold sighed with feigned patience. “William, I think there's been a misunderstanding. Perhaps you are upset about Celia and me, but this pill was obtained at great expense through my connections at Heavenly Orchard. Don't you think it's going too far to insult my sincere gift like this?”His words immediately stirred the family's sympathy as they glared at William in disgust.Ava scolded. “William, if you can't say anything nice, then you are welcome to leave!”“That's enough, William!... It's one thing to be incompetent but being unable to accept others' success makes you truly pat

    After hearing what Ava had to say, Diego scowled and retired. “Such ignorance!... I've lived for more years than you have!... Do you think you are wiser than me?”“No, that's not…” Ava tried to explain only to be sharply cut off by Diego.“Listen here, I once had the privilege of tasting just half a glass of this at a noble family's home and I've never forgotten it!”The family turned to stare at William, who remained composed and said. “This wine lives up to its name as Ambrosia.”Diego nodded approvingly. “Well said, my boy. Now then, about the rest of the wine, hand it over quickly.”Chuckling, William calmly handed over the bottle and Diego's breathing quickened with excitement.He fought the urge to snatch the bottle from William,. exclaiming in vivid excitement. “Oh my, there's still a lot of it left. This would fetch nearly a million dollars on the market. You are quite generous!”“Dad, is this cheap wine really as amazing as you are claiming?” Celia's father asked skeptically.

  • Cheap wine

    “Granddad, look at this.” Andre pulled up a decorated box of wine. “Harold brought this beautiful wine over, a fine Chateau Mouton-Rothschild 1945. We should all toast with this!”“Chateau Mouton-Rothschild 1945? That’s a really expensive wine, no?”“Yes, it is. It was three hundred thousand dollars a bottle!” Harold boasted.“What? Three hundred thousand dollars a bottle?!” everyone exclaimed in shock. The sky-high price had been way beyond their expectations.The Rodriguez family was pretty well–off, but even they hadn’t had a chance to try something this expensive.“Why’d you spend all that money on this, Harold? It’s too much, no?” Ava questioned, though pride laced her tone.“Three hundred thousand isn’t much. I have another barrel of this at home, so please, you all enjoy,” Harold said with a prideful grin.“Mr. O'Malley, you’re really generous.”“Yeah, we’re really in for a treat tonight!”The family began praising Harold for his wine, feeding his ego further.“Hey, boy, look a
