Adam’s eyes widened in disbelief, stunned by Lilith’s relentless pursuit. He couldn’t fathom how Lilith could be so obsessed with him, even after he had repeatedly rejected her advances.

At first, he had thought that it was simply because of his exceptional abilities as a doctor, but he soon realized that Lilith had taken an interest in him from the moment they had met, before she knew nothing about him.

He knew that he was not perfect and had his own flaws, but Lilith's personality was on a whole different level. If Lilith were just a little bit more "normal," he might have considered giving her a chance.

After all, she was a stunning beauty, and any man would be tempted by her charms. But her twisted logic and extreme behavior were too much for him to handle.

He had finally made up his mind, but as he opened his mouth to speak, he saw Raven, who was standing a few steps behind Lilith, shaking her head frantically with anxious expressions.

Adam caught her warning and hesitated for a m

    Virgil backed away slowly, his eyes darting between Lilith and the rifle she was holding. "Okay, okay, I understand. Young Lady, please put the gun down. We can talk this out."Lilith's face softened slightly, and she slowly lowered the rifle. "Fine. But don't ever question my love for Adam again. Do you hear me?"Virgil, relieved that the situation didn't escalate further, nodded. "I hear you, Young Lady. I hear you loud and clear. I’m not trying to interfere with your relationship with Mr. Reed. But you need to understand that he is his own person, and he–""I know that," Lilith cut him off, then smiled before adding, "But I'm the best thing that ever happened to him. He just doesn't see it yet. But he will. Soon enough, he will."Virgil shook his head, knowing that it was useless to reason with her any further. She was clearly obsessed with Adam, and nothing he could say would change that.As Lilith put the rifle down on the table, Virgil sighed with relief. He wiped the sweat from

    Adam felt a rush of excitement and relief wash over him. He couldn't believe it, they had done it. Anthony Lee must have successfully opened their new company. With renewed energy, Adam spoke out loud, "Supreme Page," and the transparent screen that he had always admired appeared, displaying his new personal data.[User: Adam Reed][Age: 22][Strength: 58/100][Intelligence: 35/100][Endurance: 27/100][Mentality: 20/100][Charm: 50/100][Skills: Nine Skies Acupuncture Method, Mystic Martial Arts Techniques, Celestial Restoration, Visceral Vision][Supreme Point : 330]Adam's eyes glistened with tears as he looked at his new personal data. He couldn't believe that he had earned so many Supreme Points. He quickly did the math in his head, thinking about how much money he could get if he exchanged all of them.330 Supreme Points. That was equivalent to 33 billion dollars!Adam shifted his focus to the other details in his personal data. He noticed that his strength was 58 out of 100, w

    Adam stared at his mother in shock. The Onyx Order? The word "assassins" echoed in his mind. He couldn't believe it. Lilith was a part of that organization? How could he have missed such a significant detail?However, as the initial shock wore off, Adam started to calm down and think more clearly. It all started to make sense. Lilith's strange personality, her tendency to be mysterious and capricious, and her unconventional way of thinking, all of it pointed to someone who had been trained and raised in a dangerous world. She must have been groomed and molded to be a worthy leader of the Onyx Order.As these thoughts swirled around in his head, Adam strangely felt a sense of admiration for Lilith. Perhaps she was not just a beautiful and enigmatic woman, but a skilled and highly trained individual that he could learn a lot from."Mom, please calm down," Adam said softly, trying to reassure his mother. "I know what you're thinking, but we'll be okay."Sarah looked at him with an incre

    Virgil nodded and quickly left, leaving Adam and Lilith alone once more. Adam couldn't help but feel a sense of dread at the sudden change in atmosphere."Is everything okay?" he asked, with a worried face that he faked.Lilith’s cold attitude vanished, and she smiled at Adam warmly. "Don’t worry, everything’s fine. Just some business that needs taking care of. But let’s not talk about that, let’s enjoy our night."Adam was still a little anxious, but he decided to follow Lilith’s lead and change the subject."Sure," he said. "This yacht is incredible, isn’t it? I’ve never seen anything like this before."Lilith laughed. "Yes, it is quite remarkable. But let’s talk about something more...interesting.""What do you have in mind?" Adam looked up, trying to act casual."You look tense," Lilith remarked, grinning. "What’s wrong? Do you not enjoy my company?"Adam shook his head immediately. "No, it's not that. I just...I don't know what to expect.These luxuries, then the guards who are al

    Adam tried not to cringe at her words, but he maintained his facade. "That's right. Let me take care of you. Just give me some time to get on my feet, and I promise I'll give you everything you need."Lilith's anticipation of being cared for by Adam was palpable, her imagination running wild with the prospect. But just as she was about to immerse herself in this fantasy, Virgil's urgent approach shattered the moment. Lilith’s eyes flashed with anger as she saw Virgil rushing towards her. She whispered through clenched teeth, "What now?"Virgil looked around nervously, as if afraid of being overheard. He leaned in and whispered back, "We have a serious problem, Young Lady. It’s urgent."Lilith's face turned crimson with frustration. She shot Adam a quick apologetic glance before turning her attention back to Virgil. "Can't it wait? I'm in the middle of something important here."Virgil swallowed nervously, but he stood his ground. "I'm afraid not. It's about the situation with the oth

    In the parking lot, Hazel noticed a stunning woman with a muscular build following Adam closely. She had short black hair, piercing deep brown eyes, and a leather jacket that accentuated her curves. Hazel felt a pang of jealousy and wondered who she was. Adam sensed her curiosity and introduced her as Raven, his personal bodyguard. Hazel laughed and teased Adam about Raven as they loaded their luggage into her car. Since Hazel didn't expect that Adam would be accompanied by his family and carrying quite a lot of luggage, Sarah and Rachel said they didn’t mind taking a cab. They said they would follow Hazel’s car.Adam told Hazel that he planned to finalize the deal with Yvonne today, and pay her the full amount for the house. He said they would need a place to stay for the night, preferably close to Yvonne’s house. Hazel nodded and recommended a motel nearby, called Mambo Motel.However, Hazel warned Adam that it was nothing fancy, just a basic motel with decent rooms and service. A

    Adam’s eyes narrowed as he watched the car disappear into the distance. He then turned to look at Hazel, who was standing next to him. She looked pale and worried, her eyes darting between him and Yvonne.Hazel reached out and touched Yvonne’s arm gently. "Are you okay?" she asked softly. "Who was that man?"Yvonne forced a smile and shook her head. "It’s nothing. Don’t worry about it. Come on, let’s go inside."She led them into the house, leaving Raven outside to keep watch. She told them to make themselves comfortable in the living room, and then excused herself to get something.Hazel sat down on the couch and leaned closer to Adam. She whispered, "Do you think we should bring Raven in?"Adam shook his head. "She's fine."They waited in silence for a few minutes until Yvonne came back with a yellow envelope in her hand. She placed it on the coffee table and said, "This is the document for the sale of the house."Adam picked up the envelope and opened it. He scanned the papers ins

    Hazel jumped up from the couch, grabbed his arm and squeezed it. "But what if you need backup? Don't you remember who my family is in this city?"Adam laughed and gently pried her fingers off his arm. "I remember very well, and that's exactly why I can't risk your safety. Don't worry, Raven is enough."Hazel bit her lip and nodded reluctantly. "Okay, just be careful. And call me as soon as you can."Adam nodded. "I will. Stay here and keep an eye on Yvonne, just in case. And don't open the door to anyone you don't know.""I'll bring her to my house, it's safer there.""That's better," Adam said, and opened the door. He looked back at Hazel and smiled. "I’ll see you soon."He stepped out and closed the door behind him, and immediately noticed something strange. There was a car, a sleek white sportcar with tinted windows. And standing next to the sportcar was Raven, with a set of keys in her hand. She flashed him a smile when she saw him."What is this?" he asked, pointing at the car.R

    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.

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.

    "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?"
