The voice on the other end was kindly and warm. "Shonda, dear, have you seen the news about those real estate companies?"

A sweet smile spread across Shonda's face. "I have, Grandma. Any thoughts?"

"Oh, I have plenty of thoughts about that terrible scandal.

"I got someone to investigate the whole affair. The young man who was victimized is a very good person. He's also handsome and capable.

"He is a little young, though. I hear he's turning eighteen in a month.

"You're a bit older than him, but not by too much. Six years is nothing on the larger scale of things.

"So hurry up and find a way to win his heart, you hear? I'd love to have him as my grandson-in-law."

Shonda was stunned. "Grandma, what are you saying? I only met him once.

"And you haven't even met him before! You want me to marry him just because of what you read in an investigation report? That's ridiculous."

Shonda was perplexed. Something felt off with her grandmother today, but she could not tell what it was.

    Shonda was stunned for a moment after her grandmother hung up on her."What's wrong with her? Why does she want me to marry someone I've only met once?"She could not figure it out no matter how hard she racked her brains. After some thought, Shonda picked up her phone and called her best friend to ask.…The storm on the Internet was still surging.However, Starnight's crisis had been resolved, and people stopped vandalizing its stores. Operations resumed as normal.One day, Seth's phone rang. The caller was Yvonne."Mr. Yeager, are you busy right now?"Yvonne's voice had a shy edge to it.After she sobered up that day, she felt so ashamed that she secretly left Seth's villa early in the morning.She did not want to meet Seth again to avoid any more embarrassment.However, Seth ended up in the middle of such a huge scandal within a few short days. Yvonne had no choice but to call him again.She knew that this was the time when Seth needed money the most. It was also a good

    Seeing Seth again, even though Yvonne was prepared, she still felt quite shy and barely dared to meet his eyes.Seth did not bring up past events and invited her to sit down.Just at that moment, the takeout arrived.“It’s almost noon. Let’s eat before we talk.”“Oh, okay.” Yvonne nodded obediently. Seeing the table filled with food, she asked, “This is a lot. Is someone else coming?”“No, it’s just for me.”Rosemary was not at the company but was out handling other matters.Seth had specifically selected two women from the Night Wolves to protect her.Plus, with her own considerable strength, most people could not bother her.Yvonne blinked and suddenly blushed. She thought of a saying—men who could maintain a good figure while eating a lot were strong in various aspects.Seth looked at her slightly reddened face. “Why is your face red? Is the AC not cold enough?”“No, no.” Yvonne shook her head, quickly lowering it to eat.After meeting Seth, inappropriate images would sp

    Six chuckled and said, “Wally, I see you as a good person. You're very capable as well. So, I’m offering you a chance to make some money.”“What exactly are you trying to say?!”“This batch of goods needs to be sent to Jonesville, right? From here to Jonesville, it should take about two days.“If you delay it by one day, you can get 20,000. It'll be 40,000 for two days and so on.”“You’re from another real estate company!” Wally realized immediately.Six did not deny it. “I’m just an employee, too. It’s a pity to miss such a good money-making opportunity.”“That’s impossible. It’s easy to get caught, and I could lose my job and possibly face a lawsuit.” Wally shook his head in refusal, feeling that this was not reliable.Six continued, “Wally, your two kids will be going to school soon, right? Your wife is not in good health, and you’re still living in a rented house, no?“In a few years, when your kids are at the right age and if you still don’t have a house, you won't be ab

    Not long after they left, a group of people approached the construction site.They did not go in and merely observed from the outside. They then departed with sneers on their lips.…Seth’s life became very routine afterward.During the day, he dealt with various affairs in the company.In the evenings, he guided Rosemary, Willow, and Alaska in their practice.They still retained the energy in their bodies from consuming the snake meat from before.Under continuous training, the latent energy inside them was fully developed.Their progress was incredibly rapid.In a few days, Seth planned to give them medicine made from the Blood Lotus to ingest, at which point their strengths would experience a surge.Three days passed quickly.That noon, Rosemary received a call from the construction site, asking why the materials had not arrived yet.Frowning, she immediately called Shonda to inquire.“What? None of the materials have arrived?!”Upon hearing this, Shonda immediately se

    Steelman Building Materials Factory specialized in producing rebar and door frames. They were one of Brocade Real Estate’s partners.Their boss, a woman in her 40s known as Lila, revealed a mocking smile after hanging up the phone.“Stupid woman, do you think I'd really agree to help you transport materials?!”Across from her sat a scholarly-looking man with glasses.Hearing Lila’s words, the man laughed. “Lila, your choice is wise. Brocade Real Estate won’t last much longer. Choosing to cooperate with us is how you secure your future.”Lila also laughed. “Of course. You guys are the leading enterprise in the country, and the purchase price you offered me is 30% higher than that woman, Shonda.”The man adjusted his glasses, a cold light flashing in his eyes. “Shonda thinks she has solved the materials problem. Little does she know a bigger crisis awaits.”Lila nodded. “With this back and forth, her project will be delayed at least half a month. If she loses a million a day, she’

    As for Seth, they simply ignored him.Wolf's gaze was icy as she scoffed. “Get lost!”These men were thick-skinned and quite bold.Having been bachelors for many years, they were not going to leave just because Wolf Diecinueve was being stern.Far from leaving, they laughed heartily and reached out to grab Wolf instead.The village had not been visited by a woman in a long time. How could they let her go?However, these men had hit a snag this time. With a slight exertion, Wolf broke the arm of one man who reached out to her. She kicked him in the abdomen, and he fell to the ground with a scream.She then spun around, her legs whipping out and knocking two other men to the ground.Her actions also angered other men watching from afar. They all ran over, some even holding sickles, hoes, and the like.“Where did this fierce woman come from?!”“You dare to run wild in our village? Do you not wish to live anymore?!”“Catch her and humiliate her thoroughly!”…Facing 30 or 40 m

    Originally, Seth assumed that the head of such an impoverished village would be some bald old man.However, to his surprise, it turned out to be a very beautiful, charming young woman.She looked to be approximately 35 years old. She wore jeans and had a very full figure.How could such a woman live peacefully in a village full of bachelors?Nonetheless, Seth quickly understood that this woman was an expert in using poison.Likely, the men in the village knew she was venomous and dared not harbor any illicit thoughts toward her.“Oh, you want the rights to exploit the sand and stone behind the village?”The young woman revealed a deadly smile. Her voice was soft and mellow, like a kitty. It tickled one’s heart upon listening.Seth looked at her. “I come with utmost sincerity. Mining sand and stone can create wealth for the village. It’s a win-win situation.”“You do make sense.” The woman nodded, but suddenly, her face became incredibly cold. “But I reject your proposal. Get o

    The woman showed a bitter smile. “The Medical Order no longer exists. What does it matter if you have a body that's invulnerable to all poisons?“My enemies are from Imperial City. Unless you can become a Grandmaster, you can't possibly offer me protection.“Young man, you'd better leave now and stop disturbing me here.”“A Grandmaster, huh?” Seth spoke calmly. “What a coincidence, I’m indeed a Grandmaster.”She snorted. “Stop boasting. If you’re a Grandmaster, I’ll call you 'Dad' right now…”As soon as she said this, Seth suddenly unleashed an aura of a Grandmaster.There was no need to reveal more. A Grandmaster was nearly an invincible being in all the nearby cities.The woman immediately fell to her knees, frightened. The scene before her entirely exceeded her understanding of the world.“Am I dreaming? Have I traveled back to ancient times?”She muttered to herself, unable to believe what she was seeing.Seth pointed a finger, releasing an inner energy that shot out and

    In the end, Seth spent an entire day and obtained a total of eight pieces of equipment, collecting the entire set.The Eye of Creation, the Gourd of Creation, the Bracelet of Creation, the Boots of Creation, the Robe of Creation, the Belt of Creation, the Divine Hall of Creation, and the Fist of Creation.Aside from the Eye of Creation, Seth still hadn't found a way to activate the other equipment.Many Texperts were extremely disappointed.Because Seth had already tried all of these items, but they didn't cause the slightest change.Of course, no one would have thought that Seth would become the biggest winner. The benefits he would receive were unimaginable.Seth's intuition told him that if he could use all of the equipment in the set, his strength would rise to an unimaginable level.The Flower Empress smiled and said, "Seth has already helped us a lot. We can't be too greedy."The other experts did not comment.The Flower Empress handed a jade pendant to Seth."Take this jade pend

    Ordinary people would probably explode instantly if they saw one of them, but Seth was completely fine. In an instant, he memorized all of these threads.Immediately afterwards, the enormous eyeball in front of Seth disappeared.This thing seemed to be unique.If Seth had it in his sea of consciousness, then the one outside would no longer exist.At the same time, Seth also learned the name and function of this eye.The Eye of Creation.It could deprive any living being, even flowers and trees, of their essence.It could be used by others or bestowed to others.It could be used to fight enemies or nurture more experts.Seth was overjoyed, but he didn't show it on his face.The Emperor-level experts did not notice the change. The stone bead was already trash. There was nothing inside.Seth didn't look at the bead again and picked another item.It was a somewhat tattered teapot without a lid.Seth held it in his hand and carefully rubbed it. A hundred thoughts ran through his mind.This

    Buzz!Seth opened his eyes, and the depths of his eyes were overflowing with light.Many Emperor-level experts could not help but ask…"What happened?""Did you find anything?""What about the bamboo slip?"…"I don't have the bamboo slip anymore.” Seth shook his head and spouted nonsense. "It disappeared the moment I swallowed it, but I did manage to condense four words.”After saying that, he wrote the words 'Dao Energy Lasts Forever' out of thin air.Many Emperor-level experts immediately focused their attention on it.Even if these words were not the original, they still touched them greatly.All of them remained silent, doing everything they could to comprehend.Harriet felt terrible.She had just said that Seth was lucky, but now that he had comprehended another one, it was undoubtedly another slap on her own face.She was extremely depressed.The others were once again shocked by Seth's heaven-defying skill, but they also tried their best to remember these four words.Just becau

    Devil Emperor Ivor was very satisfied with Seth's tact and continued: "Then my good son-in-law, see if you can comprehend one or two more of the other items."Any one of these things would bring them unimaginable benefits.Now, many Emperor-level experts had placed all their hopes on Seth.As for Harriet, she had long been neglected.Her entire face was burning with pain from the slap.Just a moment ago, she had said that Seth wouldn't be able to comprehend anything, but in the blink of an eye, she was ruthlessly slapped in the face.Those who had tried to please her a while ago had all run away now.She truly experienced what it meant to have reached heaven and then be sent to hell.However, no one was paying attention to her now. Everyone was looking at Seth with burning gazes.Just now, a few people who were closer to Seth had been able to see the aura emitted by the purple lotus flower and their cultivation had greatly increased. They all hoped that Seth would continue to work har

    Harriet, who had been mocking Seth just now, was blinded by the light. She let out a scream and covered her eyes.The blinding light caused great damage to her eyes.When the light dissipated, they saw a purple lotus floating above Seth's head, spinning continuously.It released rays of gentle light that enveloped Seth.Judging from the fluctuations emitted by the purple lotus, it was many times stronger than the one emitted by Harriet's broken bowl.Immediately, the Emperor-level existences locked onto Seth.Moreover, after activating this purple lotus, Seth's body was suddenly filled with an extremely surging energy.However, this energy did not spread out. Instead, it lay dormant.Seth didn't know what this thing was for, because he couldn't use it."This is a primeval treasure," Flower Empress said to Seth. "Sell it to me."At the same time, she secretly said to Seth, "With so many experts watching, you won't be able to keep possession of it. It will bring you endless trouble.”"If

    Her intuition told her that this man might create a miracle.The Flower Empress and the others also turned to look at Seth. They wanted to see if this man would create another miracle.Harriet held a broken bowl in her hand.It was also because all kinds of methods were useless.Suddenly, she thought of a strange incantation she had obtained on the battlefield when she was young, but she had never found any use for it.With the mentality of making a last-ditch effort, she recited the incantation.However, she did not expect the broken bowl in her hand to suddenly vibrate and emit a very special sound.The voice didn't ring in the ears of ordinary cultivators, but it was extremely shocking to the emperor-level experts. They all looked over.The bowl in Harriet's hand emitted a gentle glow as it floated in the air.Words flew out of the bowl.These words were very distorted. It was impossible to understand what they represented, but they were filled with a special Dao rune."Primitive An

I made a set of clothes overnight last night. See if you like it, Young Master Seth.""Young Master Seth, this is the sachet I made. Open it and there will be a surprise."…Many fairies surrounded Seth again, not hiding the feelings in their hearts.Seth felt his scalp go numb. It took him a while to deal with them.He made up his mind. When the exhibition ended, he could not stay any longer.Seeing Seth's embarrassment, Blossom laughed heartlessly.The group of people chatted and laughed as they arrived at the exhibition.On the way, the various factions, especially the young talents, saw Seth surrounded by a group of fairies. All of them were extremely jealous.However, they had no other choice. They couldn't beat Seth, so there was nothing they could do but endure.Half an hour later, everyone arrived.The Flower Empress and the oth

    When the siblings saw Seth, they immediately knelt down and bowed three times.Their gratitude was indescribable.They finally did not have to listen to others anymore. They could be themselves and have a broader future.Seth calmly said, "Get up. There's no need to kneel."Only then did the siblings stand up respectfully.Jerry returned the storage ring containing the puppets to Seth and said, "Young Master, we siblings did not disappoint you. We already have the Bryce family in our hands."Erryl handed over another storage ring. "Young Master, this is half of the Bryce family's profits last year."Seth held it in his hand and sent his spiritual energy into it.The amount was not small. It was more than 80 billion.The Bryce family was not a top family.Moreover, with so many disciples every year, the expenses were not small. It was already not bad to have a balance of more than 160 billion.Seth was very satisfied with the attitude of these two siblings.Hence, he took out two puppet

    The ten Immortal King puppets scared Kit's faction silly.The venue became so quiet that one could hear a pin drop. It was now filled with a strange atmosphere.After a while, Kit broke the silence. His face was no longer as arrogant as before.Instead, he had a flattering expression. "Nephew, my good nephew, where did you get these puppets?”"Hahahaha, our family is going to soar soon. We will definitely be able to create greater glory in the future."The people behind Kit also reacted and fawned over Jerry.The clan leader was also stunned.Jerry had taken out so many Immortal King puppets at once. It was like a person who earned 3,000 a month suddenly driving a super sports car back.This feeling of pretending to be a pig to eat a tiger made the siblings feel very good.Jerry looked at Kit with a smile. "Kneel.""What?" Kit did not react."Kneel," Jerry said again. "If you don't, I'll burn all of you to ashes."The corners of Kit's mouth twitched slightly. "There's no need to be so
