Chapter 1278
Huxley was now crying even harder than ever, utterly terrified about his and his family’s fate. His family wasn’t all that well-to-do in the first place, and he knew for a fact that it wasn’t easy for his parents to work hard and support the family. Yet here Chairman Harell was! Ordering for his parents to come over and kneel before Mr. Lavington! The boy could only tremble in fear as feelings of powerlessness swept through him. “Leave? You honestly think you can leave that easily? I’ll have you know that the conference is about to begin soon, so you’d best not continue wasting my time. Also, you have to call all the leaders from your school as well as all your family members over immediately. Daring to hurt my cousin… You’re giving me a proper explanation for all this if you ever hope to leave!” sneered Dixon who was extremely thorough when it came to things like these. The other students were so frightened that none of them even dared to breathe too loudly. This has turned into a

After walking for a bit, both of them arrived at the private room in question. Stepping inside, both of them saw Master Nacol sitting cross-legged and with his eyes closed next to an incense burner, seemingly meditating. Upon hearing Gerald and Jace’s footsteps, Master Nacol opened his eyes before greeting, “Here you are, Mr. Crawford!” Wasting no time, Gerald simply replied the greeting before getting straight to business. Jace himself had already given Master Nacol a quick rundown on what Gerald was here for today. From what Master Nacol understood, Gerald intended to find out where the Ancient City was. Master Nacol was willing to grant an audience to Gerald since not only had Gerald made a massive donation for his conference this time around, but he had also heard—from Jace—that Gerald had saved the lives of all those babies! With that in mind, Master Nacol honestly had great respect for Gerald. “It’s true that I know where the Ancient City is. In fact, I once went there wi

Nacol’s master had desperately attempted to defend Nacol at the time, even ordering him to flee to Gunter Manor to seek refuge and call for help! By that point, the young man had already killed eighteen people without even breaking a sweat. Nacol and his master quickly found out that he knew how to use black magic as well! His magic seemed to stem from a weird-looking flower that he held in his hand. Sometime after Nacol began running, the young man caught up to him and somehow imprinted the flower against his chest! Immediately after that happened, Nacol had felt as though his soul was being torn apart, and a dizzy spell instantly swept through his entire body. Even so, Nacol knew that he couldn’t allow himself to fall at that moment. After all, his master was still waiting for the rest of the Gunters to come over and rescue him. With that, Nacol gritted his teeth and continued crawling forward as he listened to the near-endless shrieks of dying people behind him. He was to

Gerald was very puzzled when he heard Master Nacol’s story.However, there seemed to be a voice telling him that there was some hidden secret behind the Dead Annie.Nevertheless, Gerald did not intend to reveal all of the doubts he had to Master Nacol.After all, Master Nacol was also a very simple and refined man.Since he was no longer the young and inexperienced person he used to be back then, he had already let go of all of his hatred and resentment. He simply concentrated and focused on his meditation nowadays.He truly admired the fact that Gerald had rescued more than a hundred babies’ lives. So, Master Nacol would answer whenever Gerald had any questions for him.In the end, Master Nacol had even written a special letter to personally introduce Gerald to the Gunter family!This would save Gerald a lot of unnecessary trouble.Although he rarely made any contact with them, Master Nacol still had some ties with the Gunter family because of his master.Gerald was extremely

Chester’s injuries were almost completely healed.So, Gerald brought Chester and the letter along with him as they set off, and they arrived in Qerton City at dusk that day.“It is already getting dark. Should we head into the mountain today?” Chester asked.“We will look for a hotel to stay in for the night first. We will head into the mountain early in the morning tomorrow!” Gerald replied as he looked up at the sky.He also looked around Qerton City.This seemed to be a mountain city that was surrounded by countless towering mountains.So, Chester found a hotel for them before he booked two separate rooms.After placing their luggage into their respective rooms, the both of them went out to eat at a simple and small restaurant.They ordered a few local specialty dishes and returned to the hotel after satisfying their hunger.However, at this time, the receptionist at the front desk suddenly called out to them.“Sirs! I am truly sorry!” The receptionist came over with an ap

“Kneel and kowtow in front of Miss Sime! Perhaps Miss Sime will forgive you if she is happy and satisfied, then!” The bodyguard said in a cold voice.“Brother, you should be forgiving when you can afford to be forgiving. You don’t have to go overboard. We did not mean to offend you in any way!” Gerald said.After that, he walked over and picked up his luggage that the bodyguard had kicked away before he prepared to leave again.“Pfft! Did I say that you were allowed to leave?! Who was the one who said that he did not care whether I am Miss Sime or Miss Some just now? Dave, I want you to break all of his teeth!” As for the young woman, she also stood up coldly.Chester was very furious and angry, and he could only hold back his anger.When one of the bodyguards heard Miss Sime’s words, he kicked away the luggage that Gerald had picked up again.“You are courting your own death!” The four bodyguards yelled out in unison.As they spoke, they took out their batons before they tried

Aiden was with a group of men and women.Gerald could not help but glance at them a couple more times because there was a faint inner strength lingering around all of them.It was obvious that they were all martial arts practitioners.“I arrived earlier in the morning today, Big Brother! Why are you here? Are you here for the training too?” Aiden asked in surprise.“What training?” Gerald asked.“Cough! Ugh!”At this time, a girl standing next to Aiden could not help but cough slightly as she signaled for Aiden not to continue saying too much.“This is my elder brother. The both of us are going to talk for a little while. The rest of you can go on first!” Aiden said as he looked at them.Gerald had originally planned to nod at them before greeting them.After all, weren’t they Aiden’s friends?However, none of them looked at Gerald or even said hello to Gerald at all.They simply went straight into the elevator.“Who are they? Are they from the military region?”Gerald cou

“Hey! Aiden, over here!”Not long after that, Gerald, Aiden, and Chester walked downstairs.Several girls also saw them, and they hurriedly greeted Aiden.Amongst these girls, the leader of the girls was a girl named Lijane. Both Lijane and Aiden had graduated from Sunnydale University.After graduation, Lijane had returned to work at her hometown, Qerton City.However, she had always been in touch with Aiden.Amongst the girls, although all of them were very outstanding, they could still be divided into different classes and ranks.Lijane could barely rank second.This was because there was a girl with extremely long hair amongst the group of girls. She had an extremely beautiful and perfect figure—she was tall and fair, and she had very light makeup on.Whenever she smiled, it seemed as though all of the air particles around her were completely frozen in the air.Some of the guys who were waiting for the bus at the bus stop next to them also took out their cell phones with
