"Give me a one-minute massage, and I'll pay you a thousand bucks."That one line shattered Tanya's resolve.She was dead set on buying a house in Imperial City and would not miss any chance to make some cash.She had been all fired up and resolute, but her face went slack with hesitation at the offer.Seth could not help but chuckle at her change of heart. "I'll throw in an extra 500. But hurry, time's running out."Tanya shot Seth a furious look. "Are you serious?""Dead serious."Taking a deep breath, Tanya marched over to Seth.She told herself she was just in it for the money. It was like giving a dog a massage.Her delicate, pale hands rested on Seth's shoulders, pressing down hard.Her phone lay next to her, with the timer ticking away.Tanya's face was a mask of annoyance, and she muttered complaints under her breath.Seth caught every word. She was griping about him, but he did not care. He knew she could not get away from him."Done yet? My hands are killing me."
However, that might just be a silver lining for her.The pair of father and daughter stepped inside, and there was Seth, sitting calmly.He did not have an aura of power around him, but there was something about him that made one think twice before taking him lightly.The young woman's eyes sparkled with intrigue.Even though she had seen Seth's photo before, seeing him with her own eyes took her breath away. The guy was a knockout, plain and simple.He had the kind of face that could make just about any woman under 25 go weak in the knees.The woman was starstruck, frozen in place with wide, adoring eyes.It was not until her dad nudged her that she snapped out of it. She was blushing a bit. "Hi Mr. Yeager, I'm Caelia Mason from Martial City, and this is my dad, Aaron."Seth gave a small nod. "Take a seat."They sat down across from Seth, while Tanya loomed behind him. She shot daggers with her eyes at his head, itching to give him a piece of her mind.She had wanted to get
Caelia gazed at Seth, full of hope.She was top-notch in every way—an alumna of a prestigious university, at the helm of several major corporations, and she had not even dated yet.She could easily be the lady of a rich household, so serving as Seth's assistant should be a piece of cake.Seth just chuckled. "Would you trade ten billion for an assistant, even if she was decked out in gold or jewels?"Caelia's heart sank at his words.Aaron managed a wry smile, feeling the sting of Seth's remark.They were out of options and needed that 7.5 billion no matter what.Silence hung in the air, with neither side willing to budge.Then, Seth broke the silence. "Tell me, what's the trouble with your family?"Aaron let out a weary sigh. "We're locked in a fierce stock market showdown with our rivals. Our advisors crunched the numbers. We need at least 7.5 billion to come out on top.""I see," Seth said with a grin. "I'll let you drop Starnight Group's name. Claim you're under my wing, a
Caelia gave Tanya a once-over, then dropped a bombshell. "Don't tell me you're bitter because Mr. Yeager didn't give you a second glance?"Before Tanya could retort, Caelia nodded sagely. "I thought as much, you poor thing."Tanya was seething. "You're spouting nonsense! I'd rather fall for a stray mutt than have anything to do with that jerk."Caelia just smiled, letting the argument go.Fuming, Tanya stomped off to her bedroom to straighten up the bed. Her mood was in the dumps.Seth pulled out a spiritual stone that was nearly depleted, drew out the last of its energy, and channeled it into the Emberbloom. It began pulsing with a renewed vigor.He then stashed the Emberbloom away in his storage ring.Tanya clacked toward him in her heels, her expression sour. "I'm done here. Can I go now? It's nearly after hours."Seth glanced at the clock. "We're working late tonight.""You've got to be kidding me!" Tanya's brief calm shattered. "For what? There's nothing left for me to do
Had she known it would turn out like this, Tanya would have preferred to lose some of her pay rather than stay late working overtime.She had already stayed an extra hour. If she quit now, would that hour not be wasted?She moved forward with her eyes closed, one hand balancing the water, the other trailing along the wall.Every so often, she would crack her eyes open just enough to check the floor, then press on.She looked utterly ridiculous and somehow endearing.Finally, she reached the nightstand, set down the water, and bolted.Seth watched, amused. This woman could be pretty adorable at times.With a flick of his wrist, the door slammed shut, and he locked it with a wave of spiritual energy. Unless he decided otherwise, that door was staying closed."Hey, what the heck?!"Tanya's shriek filled the room as she yanked at the doorknob, trying to force her way out. However, it was no use. The door was sealed shut.Seth ignored her outburst and went back to his training ses
Seth did not stop there. He shared with them a formidable martial arts technique that could unlock their full potential. Overwhelmed by the newfound power coursing through them, the 13 warriors knelt in gratitude, pledging their unwavering loyalty.With a casual wave, Seth urged them to their feet. "The time for battle draws near," he told Major Wolf. "Let's gear up. Each of you will wield twin aluminum alloy blades and a pair of crossbows. Don the finest Goldensilk Armor for protection. And for supplies—medicinal salves and the like—I'll fund your run for enough to cover a hundred men."Such gear was available for those in the know within the martial world, though it would cost a pretty penny. Major Wolf acknowledged the order and led the pack out to prepare.Seth took a moment to think, then waved the quadruplets over.These four were at the top of their game, each a Fourth-ranked Warrior at their peak.He handed out three Minor Reversion Pills to each, guiding them through th
Sage stood under the scalding shower, eyes squeezed shut as she focused on mastering her Poison Technique. The steamy water cascaded down, nearly boiling at over 90 degrees, but she did not flinch. This intense heat, mixed with a cocktail of toxins, was her secret weapon to turbocharge her training.As the water pounded on her back, scenes of humiliation at the hands of Seth played on a loop in her mind. Each memory fueled her resolve to grow stronger.Then, out of nowhere, a deep hum filled the room. An unseen, crushing force slammed Sage to the floor. She looked up, panic-stricken, to find Seth standing over her.Gasping for air, she tried to speak, but the pressure was so immense that words failed her.Seth's voice cut through the tension, cold and detached. "I'm leaving tomorrow for a bit. You're not planning any mischief in my absence, are you?"Summoning every ounce of her strength, Sage managed to choke out a response. "I... How could... I... ever... do such... a thing?"
A day had passed when Seth and his crew rolled into the dusty streets of Carbodia. Trailing behind him was Wendy and the rest, each rocking their own unique getup. With a flick of his wrist, Seth whipped out an arsenal of weapons from his magical storage ring, decking out his squad. The crew's jaws dropped at the sight. Seth's magic was the real deal, and he kept his secrets close. That was how he kept the respect, by keeping them guessing.Once the gang was all geared up, Seth spread out a map and jabbed his finger at three critical spots. "Dwayne, grab ten folks and hold down this fort. Nelson, you and 15 others take that spot. Major Wolf, you and the Night Wolves lock down this joint."These were the choke points to the outside world, and they had to be locked up tight. Plus, there was the airport, already under the watch of the infamous Sword Tyrant. Seth sent a backup crew of 20 to beef up security. That left him with a lean team of 50 by his side, 30 of whom were the eyes
On the fifth day after swallowing the Yin Yang Origin Pill, Seth stabbed the Chaos Dragon Sword into the ground and walked out.The Chaos Dragon Sword exploded with billions of streaks of sword energy, forming layers of sword barriers that blocked many experts.In a flash, he appeared in front of Sherry.Sherry was stunned for a moment before quickly reacting. "I finally know my role."With that, she closed her eyes.She was what Seth had used to replenish his energy at the last moment.Seth's expression was solemn as he immediately began…An hour later, he returned to the passageway and recovered a lot of his strength.Coincidentally, at this moment, the thousands of sword energy barriers broke.Seth held the Chaos Dragon Sword and continued to fight.Every once in a while, Seth would go out and use Sherry to recover some of his strength.This way, he could last longer.Just like that, another six days passed. Seth was still full of energy!After such a long time, more than a million
Even in the upper realms, there would only be one or two Immortal Kings in a thousand years.The losses they had suffered were too great.However, there were also people cheering. "Seth is finally dead. We've dealt with a huge problem. We can rush over now!""That's right. Everyone, charge over and capture the people close to Seth first!"They were excited again.After "taking care" of Seth, it was time to reap the rewards.Buzz!However, it was too early for them to celebrate.At this moment, a ball of blazing fire appeared out of thin air.Within the ball of fire, there was an "egg". Its surface was filled with countless cracks, and then it instantly cracked open…Seth walked out!Not only was his condition at its peak, but his cultivation had also improved!He had a chance to be reborn from the ashes. These guys thought that the matter would end so easily, They were too stupid."What?!""How is this possible? He's not dead!""Somebody tell me what's going on!"…Experts from all of
Lunar Goddess' brief awakening had already answered Seth’s two biggest questions, but there were still many details he didn't know.However, now Seth had absorbed the laws of the Immortal World, so he could deduce everything.To be precise, the four worlds would experience calamities every 1.08 billion years.Heavenly fire would appear out of thin air and burn everything, including the laws.This process usually lasted for hundreds of thousands of years.Among them, Immortal Reverents and Immortal Emperors could not leave easily.They had fused with the Immortal World. When the calamity arrived, they had to endure the refinement of the heavenly fire and could only leave after at least ten years.This was great news for Seth!In ten years, he might even become an Immortal Emperor by then. There was no need to be afraid anymore.After that, he unleashed his strongest power and killed several Immortal Kings before leaving.The remaining Immortal Kings all had deep fear etched on their fac
After saying that, he mobilized all the strength in his body and threw a powerful punch.The world collapsed with his fist, surging with the power to destroy everything.Countless experts from the upper realms roared in excitement.From their perspective, Seth was finished.However, before they could rejoice, the next scene made their expressions extremely ugly.The Golden Elephant Immortal, who had quite a bit of prestige and who they had high hopes for, had his attack casually destroyed with a single strike from Seth.Swoosh!Seth's body flashed and he appeared behind the Golden Elephant Immortal, his feet stepping on his head.The Golden Elephant Immortal was furious and struggled to break free.However, Seth was like a mountain. No matter how he struggled, it was useless.Many experts of the upper realms roared repeatedly, feeling extremely humiliated.He had just said such bold words, but in the blink of an eye, he had been slapped in the face.Countless runes spread out from Seth
If he could become a Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal, under normal circumstances, he would be able to live forever.Seth swung his sword, and seven or eight of the people at the front were killed on the spot.Venerable Blood Demon flew out from Seth's sleeve and joined the battle.He was also suppressed here, so Seth had to give him a drop of blood to remove this restriction.It seemed that it was indeed related to some cultivation technique he was cultivating. It was very likely to be from the bronze dragon chariot.Everything that Lunar Goddess had done earlier was reasonable.The Chaos Dragon Sword in his hand shook slightly and turned into a huge dragon. It let out terrifying dragon roars and charged forward.One by one, the experts were smashed into pieces.Now that Venerable Blood Demon was no longer suppressed, he erupted with an unparalleled ferocity and was extremely proactive.The souls of the living beings of the upper realms were extremely delicious and vigorous. They improve
Seth had brought her here because he wanted to make the best use of everything. Before the Heavenly Road was repaired, he wanted to increase his strength as much as possible.It would be even better if he could break through and reach the Immortal King Intermediate Stage.Sherry’s heart was filled with sorrow. She was merely a tool.Two streams of tears flowed down her cheeks.Seth didn't care what she was thinking. His first priority was to increase his strength.At the same time, the experts of the four upper realms had already repaired 99% of the Heavenly Road.They converged and gathered.All of them had a strong murderous aura."I'll be able to clear it soon!""Very good. When we see Seth, I'll cut off his head!""Hmph, this kid has a deep hatred for me. I should be the one to do it!""And those people around him, we can't let any of them off!""Of course. Men will be slaves for the rest of their lives, and women will be prostitutes for the rest of their lives. Only then can the h
"Brother, why are you here?" Violet blinked and asked curiously.Seth smiled and touched her forehead: "I came in to see if you kicked off your blanket while you were sleeping.""Hmph." Violet wrinkled her nose. "I'm not a child. I won't.""Eh?" Violet looked at him. "Brother, I feel that there's something wrong with you.""Oh?” Seth's heart jumped: "What's wrong with me?”"I don't know. It's just a feeling. Ah…" Violet suddenly covered her head and let out a painful cry.Seth immediately became nervous. "Violet, you…"Violet's body suddenly floated up. Thick purple aura surrounded her body.Suddenly, her gaze changed.She stood up straight, then crossed her legs and floated in front of Seth. She said in surprise: "My good disciple? Why are you here?"Seth was overjoyed: "Master, you've recovered your memories?"Violet, no, she should be called the Lunar Goddess, closed her eyes and examined her own body. Then, she said, "No, it's just a short memory awakening. It seems that you know a
Otherwise, he could join any major faction in the upper world and do well.However, he did not choose these. Instead, he used the most intense and dangerous method.Before heading to the Heavenly Road, Seth returned to the Medicine Kingdom and had a meal with Rosemary and the others.Then, he returned to the academy and gathered everyone close to him.They were still immersed in the joy of victory. Aside from Brittany, they didn't realize that something was wrong with Seth.After a very sumptuous meal, everyone went to sing and play until the latter half of the night.Even though the situation was tense right now, Seth let them have some fun.After all, there might not be such a chance in the future.Seth split into clones and sent everyone home.His main body was walking slowly down the street with Brittany.No one said anything.After a long time, Brittany finally spoke, "When do you plan to go?""Tomorrow." Seth looked into the distance with a cold glint in his eyes. "If anything ha
They were five sword-shaped pillars that were nine meters tall. Their surfaces were engraved with the patterns of dragons and phoenixes.The colors were red, green, yellow, gold and blue, which represented the five elements.It was called the Five Elements Heaven Suppressing Pillar!Seth had obtained this item from the Bronze Dragon Chariot. It was extremely powerful.Its characteristic was that it could gather the earth veins’ energy and the power of fate in an area to increase its power.In other words, the more people there were, the more cohesive they would be, and the more powerful they would be.Within the range set up by the Five Elements Suppressing Heavenly Pillar, all cultivators who entered would be suppressed and unable to exert even one ten-thousandth of their strength."Go!"Seth tapped on each of the five pillars. They rushed in five different directions and landed at the border.The Power of the Five Elements erupted, condensing into a huge five-colored barrier that env
