Everyone in the room was shocked by Adam's sudden outburst. They couldn't believe the words that had just come out of his mouth.

How could someone be powerful enough to get someone else killed right here and right now, even the police and government would ignore it?

What kind of person was Aria's fiancé, and what had Ryan gotten himself into?

However, Ryan wasn't the least bit intimidated by Adam's words. He saw it as a desperate attempt to assert dominance and control over the situation. He thought that Adam was crazy, and that he was just bluffing to impress Aria.

So he just laughed it off, feeling invincible.

You're crazy," Ryan said, feeling smug, before gesturing towards the crowd and adding, "Isn't he crazy, guys? This man thinks he's some kind of mafia boss or something."

The crowd looked at Ryan, unsure of how to react. But then, someone in the back started laughing, and soon the whole room was roaring with laughter.

Ryan felt like he had won. He had successfully humiliated Ad

    The entire crowd erupted in laughter at the snide remark, and Ryan's face burned with humiliation. He couldn't believe that just a few hours ago, he had thought himself invincible.Meanwhile, Adam, Aria, and Anthony were walking towards the exit door while having a conversation. Anthony couldn't help but notice the woman walking beside Adam."Who is she?" he asked, pointing towards the woman.Adam smiled and answered, "She's my fiancée, Aria."Anthony was surprised. "Fiancée? But I thought you were with Hazel from the Hunt family," he said, puzzled.Upon hearing this, Aria stopped in her tracks and turned to face Adam. "Hazel? Who is that? How many women do you have?"Adam looked flustered and said, "No, no, Aria. There's no one else. Hazel is just a friend."Aria raised an eyebrow in disbelief. "A friend? Like... Rosalind? Or like Lilith?" she said, trying to hide her jealousy.Anthony watched the exchange silently, feeling like he was intruding on a private matters. He decided to

    Everyone was shocked at the amount that Adam said. Even Hannah and Gary, who had hoped for some help, were caught off guard."6 million? Are you serious?" Aria asked, her eyes widening.Adam nodded calmly. "Yes, I'm serious. I believe in Gary and his business idea."But Gary quickly interrupted, "But I only need $60,000, not $6 million. This is too much."Adam laughed. "Oh, I'm sorry. My mind must have wandered off. $60 million it is then."Everyone was speechless. They couldn't believe their ears. Aria and Hannah had their mouths hanging open in shock while Gary was laughing nervously. He couldn't believe that someone would be willing to lend him $60 million.They couldn't help but wonder if this was how the real rich treated money. An amount of $60 million was just an unimaginable amount for them. They knew that Adam was successful and wealthy, but they had never expected him to be this... crazy.Adam reached for his phone and said, "Let me make the transfer right now. Do you have y

    Rosalind’s heart raced as she clutched the phone. "What happened? Is my father alright?"Clark leaned against the doorframe, his face breaking into a wide grin. "Well, it's hard to explain, but... your father seems to be recovering."Rosalind gasped, her fingers trembling. "Recovering? You mean... he's getting better?"Clark nodded. "Yes, it's incredible. His vitals just suddenly started improving all on their own. Even the doctors can't explain it."Tears of joy streamed down Rosalind's face. "Thank goodness. I'm so glad to hear that. Thank you for letting me know, Clark."Clark smiled in return. "Of course, Miss Rosalind. We'll take good care of him here. Don't worry."Rosalind hung up the phone, and Sarah, who had been standing next to her, asked, "What's the news?"Rosalind wiped away her tears and smiled. "My father's condition has improved. It's like a miracle happened."Sarah smiled, and turned to Adam. "Looks like you did it again this time."Adam returned his mother's smile a

    Rosalind called one of the maids over and asked her to show Rachel and Aria to their rooms. Then she turned to Adam and Sarah and said, "He's in the left tower. Follow me."As they walked through the mansion, Sarah couldn't help but feel a sense of nostalgia. "This place is still the same as the last time I was here," she said.Rosalind smiled. "Of course. Father doesn't believe in renovations or changes. He likes everything to remain the same as it has been for years."Adam frowned. "Why?"Rosalind sighed. "It's a long story. Father has always been very traditional, and he believes that our home should remain as it is. He thinks that renovations and changes can ruin the legacy of our family and the house."Sarah nodded knowingly. "He's always been like that. He believes that old houses should be preserved as they are."They continued walking, and Adam couldn't help but admire the structure of the building. The intricate details and the grandeur of it all left him in awe.Eventually,

    As Dr. Patel and his team began to prepare for the test, Adam turned to Rosalind. "I suggest you have a talk with Clark. He might be able to provide some valuable information about the poisoning."Rosalind looked at him curiously. "What do you mean? You think Clark knows something?""Clark has been with your family for a long time," Adam said. "He might have noticed something strange or out of the ordinary before your father got sick."Realizing the importance of what Adam had said, Rosalind nodded. "Okay. I'll talk to him right away."Rosalind nodded in agreement and approached Clark, gesturing for him to follow her out of the room. As she left, the medical team performed the toxin screen on Merrick's blood. Dr. Patel quickly took a sample of Merrick's blood and ran the test. Sarah stood quietly in the corner, her eyes scanning the room. As they waited for the results, the tension in the room grew thicker by the minute. Finally, after what seemed like an eternity, Dr. Patel approac

    Sarah couldn't contain her excitement. She had been waiting for this moment for some time. She was eager to finally learn about the identity of her son's mentor.She had always known that Adam was destined for greatness, and she was confident that he would make his mark on the world, someday. As she waited anxiously for Merrick to wake up, her mind raced with thoughts. She wondered if it was someone she knew, or if it was a complete stranger.It wasn't long before Merrick began to stir, his eyelids fluttering as he gradually regained consciousness. Rosalind rushed to his side, and they all watched anxiously as he slowly woke up."Hey, Dad," Rosalind said softly, taking her father's hand. "How are you feeling?"Merrick blinked a few times, then looked at his daughter in confusion. "What happened?" he asked weakly.But before Rosalind could explain, Sarah interrupted, "Explanations can wait. Long time no see, old man." Merrick looked up at Sarah, and as he did so, a flood of memories

    Adam nodded, and continued, "Mom... Mr. Kingsley... you are about to hear something that could change the world as you know it, so this information cannot go beyond this room. I apologize for saying this, but do you understand?"Merrick and Sarah shared a quick glance, acknowledging the seriousness of the situation."We understand," Sarah said firmly. "You can trust us."Adam took another deep breath and began to speak, "The members of the Supreme Authority are not ordinary people. They possess abilities that go beyond what we know and comprehend as humans. That's because... their powers are something that they were born with."Sarah and Merrick looked at each other in shock. Born with powers? What did that mean?The thought of such beings existing was something they couldn't even fathom. Yes, the Seven Hidden Hands were also not ordinary humans, and their lifespans were also unusual, but at least their abilities could still be learned, even if it required special talents and special

    Rosalind hesitated, her fingers fidgeting with the hem of her shirt as she debated whether or not to speak. Finally, she took a deep breath and met Adam's gaze. "Roderick Heinz is coming," she said, the words heavy with meaning.Adam's eyes widened in shock as he stared at Rosalind. His grip tightening on the glass he was holding. Sarah, sensing Adam's tension, reached out and placed a hand on his arm. She exchanged a worried glance with Rosalind, silently communicating their shared concern for Adam. They both knew how much Roderick's presence meant to him.Sarah spoke up, her voice firm. "Adam, promise me you won't do anything rash. Especially not at the Kingsley residence."Adam turned to look at her, a hint of irritation in his voice, "I know, Mom. I know."Merrick observed the exchange between the three of them, his brow furrowed in concern. He could sense the underlying tension in the room and knew that something serious was going on between Adam and Roderick. Hiwever, he didn'

    The Renhuang Lamp users found themselves utterly perplexed by the unfolding events. According to their meticulously gathered intelligence, they had a comprehensive understanding of the laws Adam had mastered. Among these were several formidable abilities, but spatial laws were conspicuously absent from his repertoire. Adam was undeniably powerful, his mastery over certain elements a testament to his prowess. However, the creation of a spatial gate and the ability to traverse the void were feats that unequivocally required a profound understanding and mastery of spatial laws—something they were certain Adam lacked.As they stood there, facing Adam who had just appeared before them seemingly out of nowhere, their confusion grew deeper. The ability to create a spatial gate was not a trivial skill; it was an advanced technique reserved for those who had devoted significant time and effort to mastering the intricate laws of space.

    The visitors were all powerful Immortals from the Wu Clan, the most dominant force in the central region. Renowned for their overwhelming strength, the Wu Clan boasted numerous mid-stage to peak-stage Immortals among their ranks. Their fearsome reputation was well-deserved, as their formidable power made them nearly unstoppable.In this particular instance, the Wu Clan did not need to deploy their entire might to obliterate the Shu Clan. Their unparalleled strength was more than sufficient for such a task. However, circumstances had compelled them to act with urgency, leaving them with no alternative but to address the situation immediately. Despite their reluctance, the Wu Clan found themselves compelled to intervene and take decisive action.As the Wu Clan group approached the Shu Clan's territory, they looked around cautiously, their eyes scanning the area. Their gazes soon fell upon ten Immortals they did not recognize. These mysterious figures stood with an air of confidence, and

    "The Wu Clan was once a formidable force," Shu Nantian began, his tone imbued with respect and a hint of trepidation. "Their power was legendary, known far and wide. However, their prominence seemed to fade after their ancestors mysteriously disappeared fifty thousand years ago. Since then, the Wu Clan had largely kept to themselves, shrouded in secrecy and isolation. It was as if they had vanished from the annals of history, becoming a mere whisper among the other great powers."He paused, allowing his words to sink in before continuing. "Then, without warning, the Wu Clan re-emerged. They did not just return quietly; they revealed a trump card that no one had anticipated. They possess an army of Immortals, a force so powerful it defies comprehension. With this newfound strength, they began to assert their dominance, aiming to rule the eastern region and claim hegemony over all. Their ambition knew no bounds; they demanded that all the various forces submit to their will."Shu Nantia

    Jiang Shuyin, her voice clear and confident, broke the tense silence. "Their territory is quite distant from here. If we wait for them to send reinforcements, it could take some time," she remarked, her words carrying both a statement of fact and a subtle challenge to the patience and strategy of those present.Adam, standing with a calm and composed demeanor that belied the tension in the air, responded thoughtfully. "These people are on the verge of death," he began, his tone steady and authoritative. "If they want to live, they will certainly convey to their reinforcements the urgency of the situation. They will spare no expense and will rush here at their greatest speed, using the teleportation array. I am confident they can achieve this."His words hung in the air, heavy with the weight of inevitability. The logic was unassailable; those in desperate straits would go to any lengths to save themselves, and the advanced means at their disposal—such as the teleportation array—would

    As the figures of Adam and Jiang Shuyin materialized at the Shu Clan, the reaction from the surrounding immortals was palpable. Immortal Wang, Immortal Kong, Immortal Yan, and several others who had been eagerly waiting for any news couldn't help but narrow their eyes in surprise. Their astonishment wasn't just due to the sheer speed of Adam's return, but also because of the presence of Jiang Shuyin at his side, the very person connected to the heart of the Jiang Clan's issues. Each Immortal found their minds racing with similar thoughts. Had Adam managed to address the troubles plaguing the Jiang Clan in such a short span of time? The astonishment in their eyes and the careful way they exchanged glances spoke volumes. Everyone, which had been filled with a tension born of unresolved conflict, now bristled with an undercurrent of curiosity and silent speculation, as the implications of Adam's swift return began to settle in."Grandpa Nantian, have you recovered from your injury?"
