Chapter 224
Author: Earth at Dawn
Inside a private club, there was a conversation taking place.

“Governor Zaccone, let me give you a toast. You seem to be getting younger and younger.”

Cole raised his glass to a man in his 40s who wore glasses and was polite in demeanor.

This man was Nicholas.

Nicholas picked up his glass, clinked it against Cole’s, took a sip, and chuckled. “You misspoke. I’m just the deputy. Please be sure to take note of that.”

Cole straightened his expression. “You’re joking. The other one’s health has been declining, and I heard he’s retiring this year. Apart from you, who else in Martial City is qualified for the position of governor? So, there's absolutely no issue with calling you the governor now."

Nicholas immediately became serious. “Don’t say that again in the future, or I won’t be able to spare you!”

Although he said this, the smile in his eyes betrayed his true inner thoughts.

Cole nodded repeatedly. “Your correction is well noted.”

Cole seemed to have thought of something and pu

    She had a face with a trace of allure and a head of smooth, black hair. Her eyes were like serene pools. It was Faye.Seth was somewhat surprised, “What a coincidence. We meet again.”Faye, in a delightful mood because she unexpectedly met Seth again, inquired, “Mr. Yeager, where are you headed?”Seth, amused and resigned, replied, “This is a flight to Martial City. Where do you think I’m headed?”Faye’s cheeks turned a shade redder. “How silly of me. I got a bit excited seeing you, Mr. Yeager.”Seth shook his head with a smile.Faye continued, “Mr. Yeager, what would you like to drink? What would you like to eat? I’ll get it for you.”“Instant noodles and a glass of orange juice will do.“Such a bumpkin!”As soon as Seth finished speaking, a woman beside him curled her lips as her face showed disdain. “Eating instant noodles in first class, you really are a country bumpkin. I bet you used several months of salary to buy a first-class ticket. You must be here to hit on c

    "Which real estate company do you work for?" Seth's abrupt question immediately unsettled the woman’s gaze, but she concealed it quite well. Seth, however, still caught onto it. He had some doubts at the start, but he was absolutely certain now. He had no grievances with the woman, yet a somewhat normal person would not taunt him so directly. So, there was only one possibility, and that was that she had done it intentionally—either to keep him here or to delay him as much as possible. The woman might not know where Seth was going, but regardless, delaying him was the goal. The only people who might try to do this or were motivated to do it were those from the real estate companies. He could not think of anyone else. The woman's voice grew louder. "I don't know what you're talking about, but you'd better not try to escape now!"The louder she became, the more it proved her guilt. Seth could not be bothered to care which real estate company she was from. He would settle all of t

    The captain led everyone to the lounge. With a serious expression, he said, "Everyone, whatever you saw today, bring it with you to the grave!""Captain, just who is that guy?” someone asked.The captain's expression darkened as he replied with the utmost seriousness, "Don't ask about things you shouldn't! Don't say I didn’t warn you. If what happened today leaves this flight, you'll all spend at least five or six years in prison!"A shiver ran through everyone’s spine when they heard this, and they immediately fell silent. All their questions came to a halt.…In a somewhat old and worn-out residential complex in Martial City where the Logan family resided were some plainly-dressed security staff. They were stationed outside the complex, and they guarded Fred's residence all year-round.Inside a room, Fred lay on a chair as he was being fed by his son. His health had deteriorated over time. Even simple movements had become somewhat difficult for him.After finishing a bowl of o

    Faye smiled bitterly at what Seth said and replied playfully, "Blame it on my natural beauty."Seth laughed heartily and disembarked from the plane. He could feel Faye’s infatuated faze on his figure as he walked away."He's so handsome. So manly too," she mused."Really? Have you ever experienced it yourself?" teased a woman who was a close friend of Faye’s as she approached her with a mischievous grin. Faye's face immediately turned bright red. She started tickling her friend's armpit. "You despicable woman. How dare you eavesdrop on my conversation? I'll get you for this!""Oh no, I'm sorry! Please spare me," her friend pleaded.The two women tussled playfully, creating a lively scene. It was a shame Seth had not been able to witness it.After leaving the airport, Seth hailed a taxi and headed straight for Fred's residence. He still remembered the residential complex Fred lived in. By the time Seth arrived at the neighborhood where Fred resided, it was already past three in

    Deep down, however, they had a glimmer of hope. What if Seth actually succeeded?A few minutes later, Seth withdrew his hand. "Sir, your vital energy has been exhausted, and your core essence is severely damaged. Coupled with the excessive strain from your youth and a lack of rest, you can live for at most three more years if things proceed as normal.”Fred looked surprised by this assessment. Even a highly respected doctor who had practiced medicine for decades had told him the same. This aspect of Seth's medical skill itself was remarkable.The man looked composed. "It doesn't matter. I have long come to terms with my death.”Seth smiled. "Old man, I didn't say you couldn't be treated."Fred's eyes widened in astonishment. Seth grasped Fred's right hand and then transformed his inner energy into dozens of extremely fine hair-thin strands before infusing them into Fred's body.Fred's body was like a dried-up pond at this moment. On the other hand, Seth’s inner energy was like ra

    They arrived at Fred's home, which was quite simple and modestly decorated. It was not at all like his status."Please have a seat, young man," Fred said, invigorated. After Seth took a seat, he then personally brewed him some tea. The feeling of being able to do things himself filled him with joy.Once they were both seated, Seth got straight to the point and stated his request. Fred showed his appreciation, saying, "You're quite admirable and straightforward. You do things without hiding anything. That's the true nature of a man."The more Fred looked at Seth, the more he liked him. Seth smiled and said, "You haven't fully recovered yet. I'll stay here for the next five days and nourish your body every day with my inner energy along with the medicine I prescribed. You should be able to fully recover by then."Fred was deeply grateful. "I won't say much more in thanks. Young man, rest assured, I'll make sure you're not treated unfairly."He could not promise any special treatm

    The way they looked at Seth made it seem like they were regarding a monster. It took quite some time for both father and daughter to come back to their senses.Hannah shook her head, a gentle smile appearing on her face. "I'm older than you, so I'll call you Sethy. Stay for dinner tonight. I won’t take no for an answer."Without giving Seth a chance to respond, she picked up the food items from the ground, closed the door, and then hurried to the kitchen.Fred was a swift and decisive man. Now that he had recovered and heard Seth's concerns, he immediately stood up. He said, "You stay here for a moment. I'll go and give Nicholas a piece of my mind right now. He won't dare to play any tricks on you."Seth nodded. "Thank you."Shortly after Fred left, a bodyguard returned with the herbs Seth needed. Herbs in hand, Seth went to the kitchen to teach Hannah how to prepare the medicine.Hannah was in the middle of cutting vegetables when she suddenly let out a painful scream. She dropp

    "Alright, the meeting ends here. You may all leave now," Nicholas announced in the meeting room. He now occupied the position that used to belong to Fred. Many proposals that Fred had initially rejected were now getting approved under Nicholas' authority.Fred's son, Henry, was infuriated. However, he knew he could not contest Nicholas' power with his own. He had no choice but to endure it all silently. Nicholas could not help but feel triumphant when he saw Fred's angry expression. He now held almost all power within the organization. He believed himself to be the ruler of Martial City, and anyone who dared to oppose him would face dire consequences.However, just as he was feeling triumphant, the door suddenly swung open. Everyone turned their gaze toward the door with expressions of disbelief. Nicholas, in particular, had stood up from his seat. A wide range of emotions reflected on his face. Everyone watched in astonishment as Fred walked in, standing tall and healthy with no

    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.

    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

    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.
