The Impervious Courier Chapter 156
"Step out of the way." Cory's deep voice warned the two ladies as he came to a halt. Anna swallowed when he said this. Elaine was fidgeting, but she was trying to keep a bold composure. She was too weak to hide her fear. Cory could see through the facade. Elaine felt someone tugging at her dress from behind. She didn't have the luxury of time to look, but when she tilted her head sideways gently, she noticed that it was Mara. Mara had jumped off the couch too and was gripping Elaine's cloth from behind. She looked scared out of her wits. "Cory, she's just a little girl." Anna tried to convince him. When Anna said those words, her eyes were not on his face. Her gaze was directed to his waist. One of Cory's hands was at the front, while the other one was behind him!Cory seemed to be hiding something behind himself. What could it be? Something dangerous? Something with which to teach the little girl some lessons?!!This gave chills to the ladies, and their fear skyrocketed. "What

Without any questions asked, Cory headed straight to the door. "Cory?" Anna was the first to raise her head. When Cory opened the door, he saw a black Bentley parked at the open garage of the penthouse. He didn't need to see the person in it before knowing who it was. He turned around to look at the three girls,"I'll be right back. Try your best and don't get at each other's throat." He teased. "Where are you going?" Anna pulled away from the group hug, walking towards him. "I won't be long. Don't worry about me." He assured her. "What do you want me to buy for you on my way back?" He asked her. Anna was quiet for a while. She didn't want him to go. Ever since they started dating, they've never had the time to share personal moments. She didn't like that. She had thought that today would be different since they were all doing bonding! But she obviously was wrong. Perhaps. "I'm running out of time. Send me a text. Also, include what Elaine and Mara want, too. I'll get you ever

Cory blinked his eyes for a while to be certain that his eyes were not playing tricks on him! After a couple of efforts, he realised that he could see clearly! He was in his right mind. This was really Lord Theo standing in front of him!!!He palmed his forehead first to fight back the seeming headache that almost shot up. It worked. The headache died out. If this person who was standing in front of him was truly Lord Theo, then what the hell does that mean?The supreme god had just told him that the man in purple was the leader of the monks!!! The system had told him that the monks are warlords from different realms that are outside earth!If the man in purple is the leader of the monks who are warlords, then what does that make Lord Theo? A warlord, too?! The leader of warlords?!!!"No. No." Cory didn't know when he started arguing with himself openly. He was shaking his head as he argued. This made absolutely no sense to him. After the incident with the poison that Cory had heal
The Impervious Courier Chapter 159
Cory should be smitten into smithereens by a rolling rock of surprise, but he wasn't. He was definitely moved by what he had just heard, but something deep inside of him would not avail him the luxury of being surprised. He kept a long stare at Lord Theo. The monks had expected him to gasp or make a reaction inspired by shock, but neither of them came. The monks were quite intrigued by his composure. Some of them believed that he was scared out of his wits but was feigning composure. A lot of ideas were flying around as stares sat in his face. "You didn't seem surprised." Lord Theo admitted to his face. Cory scoffed. He had no idea why he scoffed. It was high time he stopped pretending as though he didn't know what was going on! He knew what was happening! His recent reactions must have been inspired by the supreme god. "The biggest of the surprises was already gone!" Cory replied, his voice shallow, but his tone was very precise and deep. Everyone kept a close gaze at him. It w

"Did I hear him right?" One of the monks muttered, inquiring of the other person next to him. "I'm trying to be certain, too." The other monk replied. The monks were having a hard time believing what Cory had just said. It didn't really make any sense to them in the first place. For someone who had just insulted them and talked down on them to deride their movement, Cory must be crazy to have decided to join them. That was exactly what the monks were thinking about. "Is this true?" Lord Theo asked Cory, a hint of disbelief idling in the corner of his face. "What do you think I am? A clown?!" Cory scoffed. "Even if I was a clown, would I make such a joke? A joke about joining a cult?!" Cory added. When Cory started talking again, the monks started to get displeased. It would seem as though Cory had no filter in his mouth. "Cult?" Lord Theo pointed out why the monks had taken an offense in what Cory had just said. "If you say it like that, then it would seem as though we are bad
The Impervious Courier Chapter 161
Cory didn't know what to make of this. At least not yet. His eyes dug into every corner of Lord Theos face. If there was anything he was looking to prove first, it was whether or not Lord Theo was in his right mind. When Cory inspected the facial expression of the old man, the smile that used to hide his emotions was gone. Lord Theo's face was now very serious and intentional. This is not a joke. Cory could tell. "What do you mean she's not yours?" Cory inquired, not willing to hide the shock no matter how little. Lord Theo was quiet for a while. It looked like he was trying to put the thoughts together. Perhaps an attempt to sort his thoughts out. "She can still count as my daughter, though,since I've dedicated all my life raising her." Lord Theo continued. Cory wasn't satisfied. How could he be? This definitely wasn't what he was waiting to hear. He wanted more! A very apt and detailed explanation. "Can you at least explain to me?" Cory decided to bring himself down to the ear

"I'm afraid we have come to the end of the talk." Lord Theo said to Cory, hardly looking at him. The man was staring at the monks who seemed to be glaring at him. Cory could tell that this wasn't a good sight to behold. "You know you can't stop the conversation like this. Not when you are about to complete it." Cory was bent on getting to the root of the matter. Although he knew that he sounded quite selfish right now, it didn't matter to him. One thing he hated was being left in the dark when things he ought to know lie far away from him. Lord Theo looked away from the monks to Cory. The small smile that used to hide his emotions was back. "You are not clueless, Cory. I'm sure you would be able to connect the remaining dots. If at all you are unable to, the big guy inside you will definitely pull you through. Hopefully, you are not on his wrong foot." Lord Theo pat him on the shoulder. "It can't even take two minutes. Max thirty seconds. Just say it." Cory decided to remain sel

"Cory is not at home." Anna replied sternly, not wanting to step out of the way. Havill's chuckle was quite weird, but he had a way to make it seem neutral. He couldn't take his gaze from the face of Anna. The small smile was idling in the curve of his lips. "You don't worry about that. He will be here soon. In fact, I have no idea why he is not here yet." Havill kept his face warm as he addressed Anna. "Who is that, Anna, and what does he want?" A second voice was heard coming from inside the penthouse. "You have a visitor?" Havill wanted to poke his head inside to check out who the other lady was. Elaine was making her way towards the door. "Don't bother coming, I can handle this." Anna called back at Elaine without necessarily turning her head to look at her. Havill wanted to see who the new lady was, but since Anna would not avail him the opportunity, he didn't push. He didn't want his intentions to be obvious. Otherwise, things might go south in the blink of an eye. "I ca

Anna could not understand what was happening. She had stepped to the front, away from Cory, to look closely at the man walking towards her. How could this be her father? She was about to lose her mind. At this point, she had no idea how she was still able to hold up her peace and not go nuts. This was just enough to make her question her sanity. "What's happening? How could this be ---" Anna turned to the back to ask Cory. She suddenly choked on the words. Turning around, Cory was nowhere to be found. It would seem as though he had vanished into thin air. She quickly rushed back into the hut to look for him but she couldn't find him. She ran outside again. She didn't know what to make of all these that were happening to her. She really did wish that she would have an explanation for it. "Did you see him walk out just now?" Anna asked her father, who had stopped walking right in front of the door of the hut. Lord Theo shook his head softly, taking a deep breath. The man slowly p

Anna choked so hard on her breath that she almost passed out. She had no idea what was happening or what had just happened. She couldn't wrap her head around it, let alone make a meaning of it. But it was real. She could see it right in front of her. There was someone who had just been sliced into several pieces. "Father..." She was having trouble rolling those words over. She couldn't even move closer to the corpse. The head was still hanging in the air. Thud! The head and neck dropped on the floor. She flinched, almost sprouting some unknown wings. She should move forward and touch the corpse. She should fall on the pieces of her father and weep her eyes out, but she couldn't. This was just way too much for her to process. She was trying to understand how this was possible in the whole wide world. How could it ever be possible?She could recall openly that she had left her father back at the mansion. The old man couldn't even move an inch, let alone get to her. She could see

Anna was lost in the moment and couldn't place her own emotions, not even after she had climbed into the car. It was a cab, and Cory had just hailed at the cab. What had just happened in the building was still very much fresh in her mind. There was no way she was going to throw that away or be distracted from it. She took a glance at the corner of Cory's face. Then, the glance intensified, graduating into a keen gaze. Cory, on the other hand, was staring at the front. It would seem as though she was not even there. "Are you not going to explain it to me?" She asked him eventually. Cory still would not look at her. She didn't want to act as though this meant nothing to her. She hated the fact that Cory was ignoring her. She knew that she could not force the words out of his mouth. He had to be willing, else her worries and questions would forever remain unattended to. The manner at which Cory was staring, Anna could deduce that there was something else on his mind. Although they

Anna was lost in the moment. She was just wailing over her own troubles and worries when a sudden voice had come out of nowhere. The back figure of the person walking away from her looked rather too familiar for her to ignore. In fact, she didn't have the luxury of ignoring anything at this point. How could she? Her door had been locked perfectly, and there were even men standing watch outside of the door. She didn't even hear the door open, let alone feel a presence until the words hit her. The recurring facts that ran all over the incident made her push her body up in the bed, as now she was kneeling in bed. "Cory?" She was skeptical as she called his name. She wanted to be sure that she was able to place her confusion and get squared up with the main matter;The real situation was the fact that someone familiar was in the room with her and had asked her to leave with him. Cory hesitated at the door and then turned to look at her again. When their gazes met, he saw a whole la

Standing in front of the heap of dead warlords, Cory shut his eyes and took in all the air of victory around him. He had to be sincere with himself. There might still be a lot of spiritual figures out there in the open waiting to cause another havoc or rain another wave of terror. He had never had any reason to be scared of them. Although one of the reasons why he had come to the island was just to be wary of them. Right now, after killing all these warlords, he couldn't help but come to a conclusion that even if he was running from trouble, trouble would still find him. Henceforth, the determination to carry on with this new level of task overwhelmed him. He had unintentionally unlocked another realm and phase of challenges that he could never let anyone else figure out except himself. All his life, he had learned how to keep such big secrets. How could he be referred to as the Immortal Dao if he didn't know how to be exclusive with some of the things that have been haunting him

Lord Theo, who was already exhausted from the errands and worries affiliated with the plot they were carrying out, raised his head slowly to look at his daughter, who was fired up by what she was saying. "What are you talking about, Anna? Please go back to bed. You need it." The man dismissed causally as though he had expected her to be up by now. At this point, Anna really didn't know what to feel. She wished that she would be able to choose her feelings, but she couldn't. There was a great measure of disappointment in what she was feeling at that moment. And there was something else, too. Something which she couldn't really reach. She wanted to sigh, but because she was huffing and puffing, she was even having a hard time catching her breath. "Answer my question, father." Her voice became even louder this time. She was trying to make it obvious to him that she wasn't here to joke around. She was here to talk about and review what was bothering her the most. It would be a great

Anna's eyes slowly opened. When her eyes opened, she felt fatigue, a pool of fatigue washing all over her body. She shut her eyes again to be certain what the problem could be. She slowly opened her eyes again, confiding in the act of precision and timing. Yet the feeling lingered. The fatigued remained. If there was anything, it even became heavier. She tried to roll in bed to the other side, but she felt extremely weak. She had no idea what was happening to her. Rolling on her stomach, she tried to heave her body to a comfortable position, but nothing seemed to work for her. She fell back on her face in bed and started to grunt. "What the hell is happening to me?" She muttered, seeking to understand what the problem might be. The moment when she rolled from one end of the bed to the other, things were beginning to ease gradually. The fatigue and weariness were beginning to wear off. This time, her mind was clearing out gradually. There was a room in her mind to house as many w

"We must go right away." One of the senators stood up and was headed towards the door. "I'm sorry we can't." The doctor suddenly stepped into the way of the senator. The senator looked so offended and pissed out of his mind. He was staring at the doctor as though the doctor was a piece of garbage who ought not to stand in his presence, let alone lift his gaze to look at him. He scoffed and turned to look at the rest of the senators behind him. "What the hell is wrong with these minions? Is it really our fault that we have indulged them and made them feel so comfortable in our midst?" The senator sounded very judgemental as he rolled those words out. He really didn't care that the doctor could hear him. The senators didn't care about anything at all. They don't care about other people other than themselves. As long as things are going their way, they wouldn't care less to do whatever they thought to be okay. "Now, move out of my way before I rip you into shreds!" The senator thre

Linda and her father were as still as a hill. They couldn't even make a sound. They couldn't see each other. Talking about seeing, Linda's eyes were drooping over her breasts at this point. It seemed as though the poison continued to lower the thread of the eyes down and down until perhaps it would get to the soles of her legs. This really didn't matter to her yet because the room was too dark for either of them to see each other. Before they were looked inside this room by the two hefty henchmen, they had seen clearly that it was super bright outside. It was noon. How come when they were locked in here, it was extremely dark? They had not been taken to an underground location. In fact, the underground location they had just come from was well lit and brighter than this. Although she couldn't use her eyes well, Linda could still tell this much that this was a very dark room. "Why is it so dark in here?" She asked her father, looking in the only direction she could afford. Down.
