“Lily, don’t worry. I’ll get rid of this pest immediately,” said Donoghue with a grin as he waved his hand. “Everyone, get him.”In an instant, a dozen men pulled out their knives and rushed toward Dax!Dax was horrified. He hastily pulled out an axe to defend himself.However, how can one man defeat a dozen!?Clash!The whole room instantly fell into chaos.Lily’s pretty face was full of distraught. She had never seen such a bloody scene before.Donoghue smiled and comforted Lily. “Don’t be afraid, Lily. They’re just removing the pest, it’ll be fine soon.”Slice!A knife struck Dax on his back accompanied by a loud noise. His skin and flesh were torn apart as blood came gushing out!“Gah!” Dax howled loudly in pain. Although he was a battle-hardened man, he was no match against attacks from all sides!Dax endured the pain, swung his axe, and knocked out two of those men.However, half a dozen men started surrounding him again and relentlessly swung their knives at Dax.Sl

Darryl furrowed his eyebrows and was promptly stunned after surveying his surroundings.What was this place?Darryl felt the continuous gusts of the sea breeze. He looked around and noticed he was on a small island surrounded by the ocean. What a scenic view.A huge stone pillar over 150 feet tall stood not far from Darryl. Two large imposing words were elaborately carved on it—Elysian Island!Elysian Island!?‘Damn, this is Elysian Island?’Darryl could not help but feel shocked.Elysian Island was a man-made island situated not too far from Donghai City. It would take roughly three to four hours to reach here by boat.The island was initially constructed to make use of marine resources, but the project was eventually abandoned for unknown reasons. This island was currently occupied by the Grandmaster Heaven Cult who turned it into their altar.No one dared to enter Elysian Island unless they had a death wish. The nearby fishermen avoided the island. There were some daring cu

Darryl was sweating at that thought. Practicing secret manuals in private was forbidden in the martial arts world. Darryl had no means of escape if that was truly the case.Darryl was surrounded by thousands of disciples with each of them being the sect’s cream of the crop such that not even a fly could escape.“Don’t worry, I’m not here to interrogate you. I just want you to verify a certain matter. Did you rescue a dozen or so ladies three days ago?” said Monica with a smile.What?Darryl’s expression instantly froze as he was a little confused.Darryl eventually recalled Chester had kidnapped about a dozen women and gave them to Darryl for his personal pleasure but Darryl released them.“Do you know who those ladies are?” asked Monica in a gentle tone.Darryl scratched his head and said, “Madam, I don’t know their true identities. I only know they are members of Grandmaster Heaven Cult. My first thought was to find a way to release them and guarantee their safety.”“Good, go

Monica sat atop her throne and smiled. “Are all of you doubting me?”Monica’s voice was not loud, but could clearly be heard across the entire plaza as a powerful aura emanated from her body!The Cult Mistress’s aura was truly powerful.“No, Mistress. I dared not!”Sheldon’s body trembled as he prostrated and repeatedly knocked his head against the ground before retreating to the side soon after.Monica said slowly, “Darryl rescued the Oracle candidates and for this deed, he’s entirely worthy to be the Elder Master. The Cult Master and I have discussed this and come to this decision together. Darryl is a talented man and will be able to handle this huge responsibility.”Everyone silenced themselves with none dared to speak another word.Meanwhile, Darryl was thrilled beyond measure!‘Haha, it seems the Elder Master position is rather high!’ thought Darryl.“Darryl, stay here for today. The Cult Master is cultivating in seclusion and will finish within two days. You’ve been gra

Damn, what was the Cult Mistress doing in her room?The noises she made…Darryl could not hold back his curiosity and slowly approached the door.Monica heard the packets of spiritual herbs rustling in Darryl’s hands.“Who’s there? Come… Come in quickly,” said Monica softly.Darryl immediately swung open the door without any hesitation upon hearing her words.Gasp.Darryl gasped and was dumbfounded at what he saw in the room.Monica wore a purple dress as she curled up on her bed in the aromatic room. Her body shivered incessantly and sweated profusely. She was clearly in a lot of pain!What… What was going on?Had the Heaven Cult Elixir activated in the Cult Mistress?Monica had the same appearance as Skyler before the toxin activated inside him.All members of the Grandmaster Heaven Cult including the Cult Mistress must consume this elixir.Monica was somewhat angry as she could feel Darryl’s gaze on her body. No one in the cult was brazen enough to stare at her body.H

Half an hour later.Darryl smiled and took the pill out of the porcelain pot.The entire room was filled with the pill’s sweet aroma.Monica was stunned as she stared with disbelief at the pill in Darryl’s hand!Darryl walked toward Monica with a smile. ‘Saving the Cult Mistress is yet another great deed by me. I can’t wait to be rewarded! Haha!’ thought Darryl. He removed the silk scarf from Monica’s mouth and slowly placed the pill into her mouth.Darryl stood at the side and waited patiently for the pill to take effect.Monica gently closed her eyes. She initially had doubts, but felt the pain in her body slowly dissipate after a few seconds and was pleasantly surprised.“Darryl, how did you know of the antidote’s refinement method?” Monica asked in excitement.At that moment, her body no longer felt any pains.“I read it from an old book,” said Darryl plainly.Monica praised Darryl and gave him a few looks. “Excellent! I wasn’t mistaken. You truly deserve the position of

“Mistress, what’s this?” Darryl grabbed the green ginseng and asked curiously.Monica looked at it and said, “It’s called the Jasper Ginseng. It’s a type of rare ginseng that can increase a cultivator’s power. The Cult Master gave it to me.”Monica smiled and continued, “I shall bestow this ginseng to you as a reward for saving my life.”Darryl was full of excitement. His power was at the rank of Level Four Master.He would first ascend to Level Five Master after consuming the ginseng then ascend to the rank of Master General by consuming the Godly Pill.‘Haha, that’s perfect!’ thought Darryl. He was incredibly delighted and immediately ate the entire ginseng without a second thought.“Did you just eat the entire thing?”Monica was stunned with a worried look on her face. “The effect of this ginseng is very potent. You can’t directly eat it. You have to steep it in boiling water and only drink the solution once a month.”What?It was meant to be steeped?“Mistress, you should

Dax was one of the prominent figures in Donghai City. Donoghue could be in big trouble for offending him since his condition was still unknown.Lily was worried ever since last night’s incident.Donoghue was absent in Lily’s previous live-streaming session as well.‘Could it be that something bad happened to him?’ Lily’s mind was filled with worrying thoughts.Ding ding.Lily’s phone suddenly beeped at that moment.She took out her phone and was instantly joyous upon seeing a text message from Donoghue.He merely sent a short sentence. [Lily, I hope you weren’t terrified of yesterday’s incident?] Even his demeanor through text was gentlemanly.Lily felt an unexplainable sense of relief as her mood lightened upon reading Donoghue’s text.She deduced from the text that Donoghue was safe from last night’s incident.Lily hastily replied, [I’m alright. How about you? Dax is a powerful man in Donghai City. He’ll never let you off easily for beating him up like that. You must be c

A young nurse who entered the operating room for the first time was frightened to tears upon seeing Dax’s condition.The average joe would not have survived the journey to the hospital with such injuries.Shelly was distraught, but at the same time found it hard not to admire Dax’s tenacious perseverance. Dax could not be sedated due to the wounds on his body. However, he did not make a single sound during the seven-hour long operation and was conscious all the way through. He finally could not hang on any longer and fainted after the operation was completed.Saul was shocked and his eyes instantly became bloodshot upon hearing Shelly’s words.‘Dax is the Sanders family’s sole heir! Do you intend to end our family? Donoghue Dixon, I’ll make your family pay with blood!’ Saul thought.This was no longer a mere grudge.It was now a blood feud!“Old Master, Madam, something bad has happened!” At that moment, a younger member of the family ran panicky toward Saul and Nancy. Saul

Darryl immediately put on his clothes, grabbed the scissors, and cut the rope.Monica did not say a word and quickly went aside to dress up.Darryl stood at the side in a reserved manner like a child who made a huge mistake.At that moment, the atmosphere in the room was tense and a little delicate.Monica bit her lip tightly after putting on her clothes. “Darryl, I’ll act as if nothing happened today, but if I find out you’ve let this leak... I’ll kill your entire family.”What would people think if they knew the Cult Mistress had an inappropriate relationship with her subordinate?Monica wanted to kill Darryl, but alas he did save her life.“Don’t worry, Mistress. I won’t say a word about it.” Darryl quickly nodded his head and maintained a serious expression.Phew.Darryl was thankful that Monica did not change her mind. If not he would be buried on Elysian Island tonight.Monica did not say another word and returned to the Cult Mistress’s usual demeanor and waved her hand
