The influence of Mysterious Royal-X stretched across the globe, with five Sects and twelve Branches. Any change could affect the entire world's dynamics.A chaos in Mysterious Royal-X could mean an apocalypse for the world.Hence, the master repeatedly instructed Theophilus to conceal his abilities before completing his great task – both to cultivate his character and to protect against enemies of Mysterious Royal-X.Now, Theophilus had left the mountain and was outstanding enough to lead the world of Mysterious Royal-X.Stepping out of his car, Theophilus entered an ancient small town, wandered through the old streets, and arrived at a dilapidated shrine of Dragon-Guard.He glanced around, signaling Hades to stand guard respectfully outside.The Dragon-Guard shrine was in ruins, its pillars covered in cobwebs, seemingly long forgotten.Theophilus looked around, hands clasped behind his back, and stepped into the shrine.Inside, the shrine was empty, except for a solemn statue of Drag
Thump!With these words, the sect leader slit his own throat with the knife.A loud thud resounded as he collapsed to the ground, blood gushing from his neck, ending his life.Theophilus' brows twitched, his expression changing.This sect leader must have been the reclusive leader of Dragon-Guard in Radiant Harbor.Yet, for some reason, he betrayed and stood against Theophilus... He had been active since descending from the mountain, waiting here for Theophilus to arrive.The situation within Mysterious Royal-X seemed to be more serious than Theophilus had imagined.Theophilus closed his eyes, contemplating all possible scenarios.Most likely, a major upheaval had occurred within Mysterious Royal-X! Someone had stolen the position of Master of Mysterious Royal-X!The Dragon-Guard, who had retired in Radiant Harbor, remained at their designated locations under strict orders, waiting for him.The Dragon-Guard of Mysterious Royal-X were not allowed to act recklessly.The strict regime of
"Mr. Jake, in your absence, we dared not open the coffin. We don't know what that Gary guy sent." Stanley said cautiously.Theophilus, unfazed, walked forward and suddenly flicked his hand as if catching the wind.Instantly, a whistling sound filled the air, and the atmosphere circulated.Thump!The lid of the coffin shattered into pieces, wood splinters flying everywhere.Seeing this, Isidore and Stanley's eyes widened in horror, sweat pouring down their faces.Inside the coffin lay a robust man, covered in fresh blood, his mouth gagged with cloth, and his arms and legs shackled in iron chains, looking utterly miserable."Help him out." Theophilus said calmly, his cold eyes filled with deadly intent.Theophilus recognized the man in the coffin. He was Vincent's loyal bodyguard, whose martial skills were not inferior to Vincent's. He was one of the four well-known fighters under Vincent's command in Radiant Harbor, a formidable figure named Zechariah.Having sent Vincent to monitor Ga
“Go inform Director Lee who is dining on the guest floor to deal with this troublemaker”, secretary Flores ordered sternly.“Officer Jake, I have arrived.”Just then, a military SUV stopped in front of Ethereal Hotel. A man in dark glasses stepped out, followed by several young men in black.As soon as he got off, he saluted Theophilus military-style, then removed his sunglasses, revealing a stern face, exuding a resolute aura.Theophilus nodded. The matter involved the state, so he summoned the captain of the Dreamland Crest unit.“Which unit are you from?”, secretary Flores asked coldly.“Won't speak? Listen well! I am Bruce Flores, the chief secretary in charge of Ethereal!”, he said authoritatively: “Now tell me, which agency do you belong to?”The captain ignored secretary Flores, respectfully bowing to Theophilus.“Officer Jake, awaiting your command.”Theophilus signaled with his eyes, the captain understood, turned, and waved his hand. The young men in black swiftly moved, cle
Contemplating this, Theophilus reached for his phone to make a call."Hello, Theophilus, what's up?" Dulcie's clear voice came from the other end."Dulcie, I’m going to Radiant Harbor." Theophilus said seriously: "I'll leave the matters related to the corporation in Radiant Harbor to Stanley and Isidore. If you have any issues, go to them.""Mm-hmm, I understand. You’re going to Radiant Harbor? How long will you be away?" Dulcie pondered: "I’ll return to Elysian Echo City in two days.""I’m not sure about the duration yet, but it’ll be at least a month." Theophilus replied: "Take care of yourself while I’m not home.""Yes, I understand." Dulcie said: "And you too, take care of yourself in Radiant Harbor.""Mm."After finishing his call, Theophilus hung up the phone.Knock, knock.At that moment, Isidore entered, holding a file in his hand, his face stern."Mr. Jake, you asked me to gather information on Seven Star Corporation and Zenith Nexus Company from Big Island. I've completed th
"My name is Roosevelt Gonzalez. I just got off the plane with my parents, but now I'm lost, whoa huuu!" Roosevelt Gonzalez, frightened by the recent commotion with the convoy of cars, had a pale face and began to cry."What a mood killer, where did this trash come from? Ruining our night's competition, huh?" A muscular young man with sunglasses confronted Theophilus aggressively."Just got off a plane, huh? Some poor out-of-towners here for a visit? Look at this ragged appearance, what bad luck!" a girl with a cigarette in her mouth commented disdainfully.Theophilus sized up the group, noticing the young men and women had dazed eyes and looked rather out of it, probably not fully sober."Drinking, huh? And you still dare to race like that?" Theophilus retorted sternly: "Do you realize you almost killed someone?""What's it to you if I'm drunk? Or if I kill someone? Playing hero, are you?" the owner of the Lamborghini snapped back, pointing at Theophilus and revealing a forearm covere
In the reclusive circles, the Gonzalez Corporation of Quantum Ridge, known as the "King of Hundred Remedies." held more influence in Southeast Empyria and Southeast Asia than the top five families of Radiant Harbor.It was unexpected that the Roosevelt they casually saved had such a prestigious background. Compared to the Gonzalez Corporation of Quantum Ridge, a half-rich man like Glenn from Radiant Harbor is like an ant to an elephant. His son has already caused a major disaster.The second day.Stellar Ventures Island, Flower Mansion.In the luxurious mansion, Gabriel sat solemnly in his chair, with an elegant breakfast table before him.“Mr. Gary, Vincent has been brought here." reported a voice.Two Asian men with stern faces entered, holding a middle-aged man covered in wounds.Vincent was bloodied, beaten to a pulp, his hands and feet shackled in iron, looking severely tortured as he lay whimpering on the ground.“Mr. Gary, we have used all forms of punishment, but Vincent refus
Amelia snorted mockingly, looking at Theophilus with a teasing expression: "Friends? Why would I have a useless friend like him?""He's the joke I mentioned earlier! His name is Theophilus Jake, a notorious good-for-nothing throughout Elysian Echo City!" Amelia said sarcastically: "My cousin is so unlucky to have a husband like him.""Oh, Amelia, what a coincidence! Is this the useless brother-in-law you mentioned?" a young person asked curiously, looking at Theophilus with disdain."He's exactly the poor wretch from the legend, going out without even a branded watch, not even a car key. Oh my, how outdated." a young girl mocked."What a pity, Amelia, I saw Dulcie’s picture you showed, she's so beautiful! A breathtaking beauty! How did she end up marrying someone as useless as him?"A young man slapped his thigh in exclamation, holding Amelia's phone, squinting at the screen, showing a picture of Dulcie on vacation."Is Amelia's sister really that beautiful? Let me see." another young
