After nearly three hours of travel, the convoy of cars, one of which carried Max, finally arrived at the foot of the mountain. "The Mountain of Immortality"—that was the name people had given it.

Max stepped out of the car and looked up. "Not too far! Only about three kilometers!" he recalled Edwin telling him when the old man spoke of his master.

Master Shen Tao was an 89-year-old sage who was said to have meditated for thirty years, discovering the secrets of cultivation that granted him immortality.

"You just need to bring a girl to him, and whatever you desire, he will fulfill it for you!" Edwin had confided to Max. Besides this young man, Edwin had never spoken of the master to anyone else.

Max didn't fully trust Edwin's words. He listened to the old man only to gain his favor. However, at this moment, he couldn't find a reasonable solution to the problem he was facing.

After Edwin was arrested, one by one, the illegal businesses under his control were exposed. The police moved q

    The old man observed them all before his gaze fixed on the four girls who were prostrated on the ground. Without anyone noticing, the old man moved so quickly that in the blink of an eye, he was beside the girls.He brought his nose close to each of them, making them terrified. Not only was his extremely thin body horrifying to look at, but it also emitted a very strong fishy smell.After sniffing each of the four girls, the next moment Shen Tao was back standing in front of his cabin door."You are truly foolish!" His voice echoed throughout the place. "How dare you bring me impure girls!"Max was stunned, unable to say anything. "What? He wants a virgin?"Edwin had only told him to bring a girl to the sage, but never mentioned that the girl had to be a virgin."You must be punished for this insult!" Shen Tao's voice was again heard in Max's ears, making him tremble even more in fear."Master, please forgive this ignorant and foolish one! I didn't know that Master had specific tastes

    Shen Tao stepped back into his wooden hut.On the other hand, hearing the old man’s final words, Max finally made the hardest decision he had ever made in his life.“Forgive me, Master, please give me one more chance! I’m willing to meet that condition! I will hand Emily over to you!”Everyone at the place widened their eyes in disbelief. The boss sacrificed the person he loved the most for this old man?Shen Tao put a wide smile on his very wrinkled face.“Good! I can feel the sincerity of your words! From now on, you are officially my disciple!”“Thank you, Master! I will always be loyal to you and do whatever you want!”“Stand up!”Max then did as Shen Tao ordered.“You must provide me with a different girl every night! She doesn't have to be pure! Even ones like them will do! Hehehe!”Shen Tao then entered his wooden hut and ordered the four girls to follow him inside.Soon, naughty and very erotic sounds could be heard from inside the hut. It was as if they were in a real battle

    "What?"Max couldn't hide the disappointment on his face.He had been elated upon hearing that his hobby would grant him extraordinary power he had never imagined before. Max had confided all his problems to the old man, including how Edwin ended up in prison after being defeated by a young man he despised.Max imagined that with this new power, he would not only be able to maintain his entire business but also destroy all his enemies, especially Darrin."You lowlife bastard, just wait, your time won't be long! Soon I'll send you to hell!" he muttered vengefully.The name mentioned last had fueled Max's anger and hatred to an extreme. As he had said before, he would never stop until Darrin was dead.However, hearing Shen Tao's last sentence crushed his hopes.Seeing the change in his disciple's expression, Shen Tao rose from his seat. "But you need not worry," the old man continued. "This time I will come down from the mountain to help you! I will eliminate all your enemies!"***Else

    Darrin didn't respond, merely staring at the girl with clear astonishment on his face. "How does this girl know about Emily?" he thought.Without saying a word, the girl continued as if reading his mind. "Have you forgotten that I'm a vampire? Of course, I can read your thoughts!"Darrin nodded while scratching his head that wasn't itchy. "No wonder you knew!" He pondered for a moment whether he could trust this girl, unaware that she was still reading his doubts."My name is Gabriella, the last descendant of the Moreau family. We are known as a noble family that is not only very brave and upholds the truth but is also trustworthy! You can tell me anything!"Darrin furrowed his brows.It wasn't that he couldn't trust someone, but his experiences over the past three years had taught him that nothing in this world comes for free. Everything comes with a price. If this girl was being so kind to him, it might be that she had some ulterior motive."Hahaha! You're really funny! Do you reall

    Lord Lucien set out with two hundred men, all on horseback. At that time, it was very unusual for a nobleman to visit another noble family's home with such a large force.“For a week, my father didn’t return, nor did any of the men he took with him! That’s when I realized that my father’s visit wasn’t to discuss my engagement to Julian, but to challenge Lord Edmond!” Gabriella continued her story with a bitter tone.“Then, one night, about a hundred men came to surround our house! My mother asked Helena to take me as far away from the castle as possible!” she continued with tear-filled eyes.As Lady Vivienne requested, Helena took Gabriella through the back door and into the forest. However, before they got far, a group of men ambushed them. One of them grabbed Gabriella while another brandished his sword in front of Helena.Not wanting to let her most trusted servant die, Gabriella released a powerful urge within her. “I don’t know what happened next. All I know is that all these men

    "None of this would have happened without your help!"Gabriella gazed at Darrin with deep gratitude and admiration, her eyes shimmering with unspoken emotions. As she looked at him, a thought crossed her mind: "His blood can cure my curse. Who is he, really?"Darrin just nodded with a slight smile, not wanting to make a fuss."I'm glad I could help a little," he said humbly.Darrin's response surprised Gabriella. "He's so humble, completely different from Julian!" she thought again.Gabriella moved closer to Darrin. "So, what about your plan to meet the mayor?" she asked with great curiosity.Darrin was a bit surprised by the question. However, when he remembered that Gabriella had vampire powers, his surprise slowly faded.Shaking his head, Darrin answered somewhat hesitantly."I don't know, but my focus now is to prevent Max from gaining more power in this city! He must not be allowed to, or many more people will suffer."Gabriella's smile widened.On one hand, Darrin's answer made

    Darrin could understand Gabriella's feelings well."Anything left by our parents, especially something that reminds us most of them, of course, it would be very precious!" thought Darrin.Gabriella, of course, could hear Darrin's thoughts because of her vampire abilities. However, she quickly raised her face and looked at Darrin firmly."No! It's more than that! This is the key to a secret storage!" said Gabriella with a serious tone."Secret storage?" Darrin was still lost in confusion as Gabriella quickly headed to the large window located on the back wall of Lunaria Palace.Gabriella then moved a large stone with a diameter of two meters that was on the ground just by sliding it with her foot.For Gabriella, it might be very easy. But, for an ordinary person, it would take at least four strong adult men to lift it.Behind the stone was another flat stone with an engraving exactly like the shape of the pendant the girl was holding.As soon as Gabriella placed her necklace on the eng

    "The Moreau magical necklace? What exactly is this thing?" thought Darrin in wonder.The necklace emitted a blue light that spread to Darrin's palm. Slowly, the light enveloped his entire body.He didn't understand what had just happened. The necklace he held in his hand was identical to the one Gabriella had, except it had a blue diamond.Gabriella was also shocked to see the identical necklace in Darrin's hand. Her face turned red with amazement and unspoken feelings.However, after regaining her composure, Gabriella quickly urged Darrin."Come on, let's place these necklaces in their rightful place!""Yes!" Darrin responded enthusiastically.They placed the necklaces simultaneously into the carving on the stone door. They didn't have to wait long; the gate trembled slightly before moving to both sides.A second later, both Darrin and Gabriella widened their eyes."My God, is this real?" exclaimed Gabriella.In front of them was an enormous room, as large as a basketball stadium, an

    Darrin nodded. "I understand, my queen."The way Darrin answered made Helena blush again. She was now confident that she could give the item to him.Once the earring was in his hand, Darrin removed the green gem that was its pendant and attached it to his Moreau necklace.Green and red light emanated from the necklaces, reaching as far as the clouds and piercing them.At that moment, a light appeared from behind the clouds. Moments later, a female figure, adorned in gold from head to toe, smiled at him. Darrin immediately knelt down, for the woman's features indicated that she was the Moon Goddess Fenrisar had described."Since you have completed your first trial, accept this as your reward." The goddess raised the golden staff in her hand, and a golden ray descended to the earth and merged with Darrin's body.The goddess then vanished. But Darrin felt something strange happening to his body.He raised his hand and saw it transform into water, fire, earth, air, and all the elements of

    "Why? Why are you doing this? No!"Splash!Darrin's scream faded as his body fell into the water. But the scream continued to echo in his heart even as his body began to sink to the bottom of the lake."Why did you sacrifice yourself for me? Why didn't you let me do it for you?"Darrin felt completely devastated. Not only because he had failed to protect the princess, but also because he had failed to protect his other loved ones before."Why does everyone close to me have to suffer such a tragic fate? Why can't I protect them?"The regret and grief grew stronger in his heart as his body sank deeper into the lake.At the same time, he felt his chest tighten and it became difficult to breathe. It seemed that Helena's plan to save Darrin would end in failure, as the young man's weakened body made it impossible for him to use any internal energy or technique to help him breathe.Darrin understood this, and it only deepened his regret."If only you had gone into the lake instead, perhaps

    "Greetings to you, Mother!" The Dark Knight could not contain the joy in his heart as he saw the young woman rise from the ground and look in his direction. "I-I know you may not have expected us to rouse you from your slumber. But..."The Dark Knight did not hesitate to reveal his intentions to the young woman who was, after all, his biological mother. "We've been going through a lot of trouble lately, and we need your help."The Dark Knight continued to pour his heart out. Although it had been a long time since he had last spoken to his mother, he was not embarrassed to say anything."Mother, there's one more thing I want to ask you. It's about the position of Prime Minister in the kingdom. Since I'm the one who woke you up, would you be willing to give me that position?"All this time, the Dark Knight had seemed obedient to Theobaldus, or even to his nephew Nicolaus. Yet deep in his heart, he held a grudge against them."But I hope you don't misunderstand. I don't want the title. I

    Chapter 342 - Finding the Vial

    Spurt!At the edge of the lake, Darrin vomited large amounts of water from his mouth after Helena had pumped his chest several times. After that, it was clear that Darrin was gasping for air, as if he had run out of oxygen. But he still couldn't open his eyes."Darrin, wake up!""Wake up, Darrin!"He faintly heard a soft and melodious voice in his ear. At the same time, a gentle hand stroked his cheek.When Darrin finally managed to open his eyes, he saw a beautiful figure sitting right in front of him."Your Highness..."Helena was no longer wearing the leather mask that had sunk to the bottom of the lake. With her hair and clothes still wet, she looked exceptionally beautiful."Thank goodness you're awake!" Helena couldn't hide the happiness on her face as she saw the young man begin to open his eyes. Darrin might not be able to see it, but the feelings in the princess's heart for him had grown much deeper and stronger than before.Earlier, when Helena had seen Nicolaus about to hit

    When Hector left Arcadia, he probably never imagined that his plans would change so quickly. Originally, he intended to take the vial, give it to Darrin and leave. Unexpectedly, he lost Darrin sooner than he expected.And after seeing the cold form of Queen Marielle lying in the coffin, it was as if he could see the end of the world through her. This sight only strengthened his resolve."All right, one more time!" Hector had made up his mind to destroy the vial. No matter what he had to do, no matter how great the sacrifice, he would do it.Catching his breath and releasing his right hand that had been held by his left, Hector tried to rise from his sitting position, preparing for the next attack."Don't even think about trying that again, because I won't just stand by!" Nicolaus pointed his finger at Hector's face from the other end. Apparently, he was not ready to give up so easily either. "I will destroy you, or vice versa!"Both men had suffered severe injuries to their right hand

    The incident threw the top of the tower into chaos. The mages immediately rushed to the stairs and descended hastily. Meanwhile, the soldiers below stood on alert. They did not approach the top of the tower, nor did they dare do so without Nicolaus' orders. But they were ready at a moment's notice."Darrin!" Hector shouted, clenching both fists. He knew how devastating the strike of a cultivator at the peak of the King level could be when unleashed at full power. As he had just witnessed.On the other side, as if Hector's presence meant nothing to him, Nicolaus rose from his kneeling position, clutching the vial in his hand. His face was dark and expressionless. As he moved toward the coffin, he himself opened the grandmother's mouth."Nicolaus, I beg you, at least listen to my explanation!" Hector fought to control his anger, trying to speak to the ruler of Green Island with a cool head. "I don't want to force you to change your mind, but please listen to me."Nicolaus lifted his eye

    Nicolaus asked gently, a smile on his face. His demeanor naturally made Helena feel a little more at ease, allowing her to speak her heart without fear."Yes, Your Majesty. I am very worried that he won't be able to cure them without this medicine. Therefore, I would be very grateful if you could spare a little for him."Helena spoke with bright eyes, as if she was doing something very important for herself. But at that moment, her face suddenly tensed. "Oh no, what did I just say?" she thought to herself. "I made a huge mistake!"And just as she had feared, Nicolaus' face turned red. Extremely red."My God, what will happen now?" As she thought this, Helena could see the change in the king's expression. It was clear that he was suppressing his anger."So it's true what I thought," Nicolaus said in a trembling and frightened tone. "The one in your heart is that bastard, not me! So why did you deceive me with your sweet words?"When Helena accepted Nicolaus' proposal and agreed to marr

    Nicolaus said nothing but lowered his head."Nico, tell me, is this girl the one you're looking for?" Theobaldus shouted, anger and frustration evident in his voice.On the one hand, they had lost the potion, and the position of the full moon in the sky had shifted. Even if they found the potion and revived the queen, it would still be a grave sin for them.On the other hand, he was furious with his nephew for being so blinded by love."You sacrificed the future of the kingdom for a girl? Since when did you become so weak?"His anger made him forget the rule of not speaking ill of anyone in this sacred place."Tell me, are you...""Yes, I am looking for her, uncle. I really am," Nicolaus shouted back.He hated himself for being weak because of his feelings for the girl. But deep in his heart he believed that Helena was really there."I didn't just hear her voice. I could smell her scent. I'm sure it's the same scent I smelled this morning!""What?"Suddenly, Theobaldus jumped. Not bec

    The chanting of the mages grew louder as the full moon crept a few degrees from its perfect alignment above the tower. They continued to recite a birthing spell, hoping for the best in the queen's resurrection.After nearly half an hour, the mages suddenly shouted in unison, "Queen Marielle is heaven, and she will bless us forever!"Their chant echoed throughout the island. A second later, Nicolaus, Theobaldus, and all the soldiers guarding the area shouted the same mantra. "Queen Marielle is heaven, and she will always bless us!"When the echo of the voices died down, the moon was directly above the tower, illuminating the face and body of Queen Marielle as she lay in the glass coffin.Nicolaus and Theobaldus rose from their positions on the floor and approached the coffin."Greetings to you, Mother. Queen, ruler of the universe, and grace to the world." As he spoke, Theobaldus kissed the queen on the cheek.At that moment, there was a stark contrast between Queen Marielle and Theoba
