Darius' smile vanished as he pointed ahead at the camera.Borisin nodded but said nothing. He merely turned to look at the other officers, who immediately understood and glanced at the camera. The police unit then brought it out of the room to destroy it for good. What happened next was unknown to Darius. All he did was sigh deeply at Borisin, stating, "It's been a long time since we met, yet you look extremely tired."Smiling and shaking his head, Borisin said, "Things like a lack of rest are unimportant to me. I'm more worried about you; you passed out for half a month because of some unknown toxin. During your absence, the Reid family's dynamics have changed again. Everyone now views you differently, too. I believe you should host another family meeting to confront them.""Yes, I heard plenty about the Reid family's state these days." Darius raised both brows. "Also, I've already encountered most of the Reid family members. I know they bear plenty of malice toward me and have alre

Alas, Darius couldn't do so because it was risky. Not to mention, he needed Teivel's help should he face any more dangers in the future. Chest sinking with helplessness, Darius moved his hands around, making several smooth, flowing motions with his figures like the book's sketches. Although he didn't understand what they meant, he could tell the actions ignited a bridge between him and the impossible. It was an excellent form of cultivation that allowed him to improve himself. Much to his delight and shock, he could actually feel his powers growing as he followed Teivel's instructions. Likewise, his body felt stronger while his life force multiplied and reached higher temperatures than ever. Despite how warm the energies got in his body, he didn't feel uncomfortable. That continued until the last bit of hot life force disappeared from his body. At that point, Darius opened his eyes and felt his physical, mental, and martial abilities had reached a new peak. He hopped off the bed wit

"—I know you two are strong people! My son's still young, and I swear he's innocent in the matter! I'm the one at fault! I did it of my own volition, so I'll face whatever legal punishments come my way!" Borisin sneered while pulling the former with more force. His lips curved slightly, but he wasn't smiling. Instead, his smile dripped with utter hostility as he corrected, "What you've said is ridiculous; saving your son is in the police's job description, so we'll naturally do all we can to rescue him. Also, us saving him doesn't depend on whether you get punished by the law or your willingness to accept said punishment."He didn't bother speaking anymore after that. The security guard would try to break free occasionally. However, after several attempts, the other officer barked, "Enough! You've crossed the line. If not for our captain's tolerance toward you, I would've stuffed your mouth long ago to keep you quiet! Our captain doesn't care about you now, so if you continue to whi

"You may find another professor to be your academic advisor, but I assure you I won't be that person!"Darius heaved a deep sigh, squatting on the roadside as he felt the onset of a grueling headache. He knew there was no solving the barrage of problems that would start if Owen turned him away now. That was because this email got sent two weeks ago, on the second day of his coma. Darius pursed his lips in defeat, not knowing how to explain the matter to Owen. It seemed especially difficult since he could tell Owen had a foul temper and was unwilling to listen to others' advice based on their previous conversation. "There's no changing whatever Professor Owen Kurt sets his mind to," Darius mused, feeling like his head was about to blow up. "Maybe he'll accept the truth if I presented him with a medical certificate proving I was in a coma. Then again, there's no telling if it'll reinforce his belief that I'm rich enough to get away with ditching my studies. After all, it's easy for so

"Therefore, I'm the only patient in the hospital now," Darius explained while doubting that Owen would believe his reasons. Little did he expect Owen to sigh and exclaim in awe, "So, that's how the life of a rich person is, huh?"Raising his brows, Darius suddenly was at a loss for words. He couldn't believe this informal, defeated version of his professor was the same guy who behaved arrogantly before. The difference was so drastic that Darius had no clue how to react. Yet, as he pondered a suitable reply, Owen spoke up again."I understand everything now. What you need to do is focus on your recovery. I expect to see you when classes start next week. Otherwise, should you continue to remain MIA, I swear I'll take action." Owen hung up after saying this to Darius.Darius stared at the phone in his hands, his eyes blinking in pure shock before curving into a relieved smile. Although Owen spoke sternly and angrily, Darius could tell there was a hint of concern in Owen's voice. While h

"We'll all bear witness to this," the crowd said.The woman on the ground had an ominous feeling. She looked up at Darius and parted her lips to say something, but he beat her to it. "I'm truly sorry about you getting hurt. I should've broken up with you the first time you had another man's child. If not for that, the man's wife wouldn't have cornered me at home and caused you to misunderstand." He sighed and tucked his hands into his pockets, looking desolate. At the same time, he channeled his life force to his face; the warmth made it redden.Silence descended upon the crowd as they watched things play out, including the woman. She gaped at Darius in shock and shook her head mechanically, not knowing how they'd reached this point. She sensed the disdainful looks the crowd was giving her; it wasn't something she'd experienced before. Her face turned red as her eyes filled with tears. Then, she shot to her feet and pointed a trembling finger at Darius. "You—Why, you—" Unfortunately

That was Darius' neck. When the woman returned to her senses, she was already in Darius' car. She paled, widened her eyes in terror, and started struggling. "Where are you taking me? I know I did something wrong; this is all my fault. Since I've admitted to my mistakes, why do you refuse to let me off the hook?"Darius raised an eyebrow. "Because you're the one who came looking for trouble. I don't know why you approached me or whether you're good or bad." He shut the door, separating them from the outside world. Now that they were alone, he returned to his usual self. The temperature in the car immediately dropped by several degrees as he said, "Before I get to the bottom of this, you're not allowed to leave my side. I'm gonna take you home with me, but for my safety, I'm gonna lock you up in the basement."The woman's face became ashen. She shook her head vigorously and shakily said, "No, I've already realized my mistakes. I may not be a saint, but I don't think I can be considered

"I'm Ursula Evans, and I beg you to save me from this monster! I'm from the Evans family; I'll repay your kindness with more money than you've ever seen! I'm sure many of you have heard of my father, Bennett Evans! If you don't believe me, you can take photos of me and look them up online. I've attended countless events and functions; there are bound to be photos of me online. You'll know I'm telling the truth!"Darius raised an eyebrow and sighed. He unbuckled his seatbelt and got out of the car. Ursula was stuck in the window. Terror washed over her when she saw Darius approaching her, and she struggled even more. Darius leaned against the car and watched her with his arms crossed. The calm look in his eyes made Ursula stop struggling. For a second, she felt uneasy, not knowing what to do. She knew Darius would probably do something to stop her but didn't know what. Her breathing sped up as she said, "You heard me—I'm from the Evans family. We're extremely rich, and my father's mor
