Darryl closed his eyes tightly; his hands and legs did not stop with the weird actions.He was in the midst of developing martial techniques, and he was utterly engrossed in it.Jewel and Debra did not dare interrupt him; they just waited quietly by his side.The ladies had never dreamt that they would need to wait for the next few hundred days.Time flew past them.Then, it was a year later.…At the Guang Ping Palace in the New World.The mansion had a back garden where the flowers blossomed as usual.Monica was in the garden's gazebo, and she wore a long silk dress. She had a smile on her face as she sat there.A little boy, who had just celebrated his first birthday, made some noise as he took his first steps. A few servants stood beside him; they were there to take careful care of him.The boy was Monica and Darryl's son.Monica had named him, Ambrose Darby.His name was a symbol of their remembrance for his father indefinitely.When he grew up, she hoped that he wou
Even though Ambrose was not his biological child, he was such a good kid—how could he not like him?There was a hint of reminiscence on Monica’s face as she thought about that.She knew that Darryl had been dead for a year, and he would never appear in her life again. Still, she did not know why her heart would ache whenever Ambrose addressed Kenny as his father.She lifted her head to look at the white clouds in the blue sky as she contemplated that.'Darryl, I wanted to be with you forever. But who knew that fate has a different destiny for us. If you can hear me from heaven, please watch over our child. Let him grow up healthily and be a hero someday, just like you did.'…Meanwhile, at the Palace Hall in the New World's Royal CityThe New World Emperor sat expressionless on his dragon throne.His officials stood on both sides, just beneath the throne. It was an important day—the emperor had decided to attack the World Universe once again. Their previous attack had faile
"Guards! Guards!"The New World Emperor yelled hysterically. The Dzi bead was on the crown that had belonged to his father! How could it have been stolen? The Heavenly Earth Altar was a sacred place; no one would usually dare to enter it. When the royal guards heard the emperor's shouts, they thought something had happened. They rushed toward the altar, but they were baffled.They were not blind; they could all see that the Dzi bead was missing! "Who is in charge of guarding the altar? Come out now!" the New World Emperor yelled frantically. He had never been so furious since he had ascended the throne.One of the royal guard leaders, Kevin Lottway, walked out amongst the crowd. He was the one responsible for Heavenly Earth Altar.Thud! Kevin was scared sh*tless; he trembled as he knelt on the floor."You! Where did the Dzi bead go? Speak!" The emperor was furious; he had a murderous aura."Your Majesty—" Kevin sweated profusely; his body was wet. He tried to recall, so he
Meanwhile, in the World Universe.Dax and Chester looked solemn as they sat and drank at the Eternal Life Palace Sect Branch in Donghai City. The atmosphere was quite dismal.The two of them had gone to the New World a year ago, and they had gotten into a fight with Matteo Hanson and his disciple, Justin Quinn. They were humiliated in the fight, so they led their men back to the World Universe.Dax had frantically practised cultivation daily the entire year. He did it every moment he was awake.Dax used to be an underworld gangster. He had only achieved a Martial Saint's level due to the previous Eternal Life Palace Sect's sect master. When he received those powers, Master Callum Webb told him that his powers would grow much faster than any ordinary person within a year.His time and effort had paid off. Dax had cultivated daily for the past year, and he had reached Level One Martial Emperor! On the other hand, Chester was the Eternal Life Palace's sect master, and his progress
Meanwhile, at the bottom of a volcano crater in the New World.Darryl sat on the jade platform with his legs crossed. Debra Gable and Jewel remained silently by his side; both of them could not hide the excitement on the faces.It had been a whole year.They could feel that Darryl had created a unique cultivation method!Buzz! Suddenly, Darryl opened his eyes; a frightening aura raged through them! He had reached Level One Martial Emperor! Then, Darryl stood up and slowly lifted his arms, and the air surrounding him distorted! Black circles of holes formed and caused an enormous rumble! With Darryl as the midpoint within a radius of hundreds of kilometers, the earth shook and trembled inexplicably. The entire volcano rumbled as countless small rocks rained on them!The magnitude of the quake rendered one unsteady on their feet.After a while, Darryl let out a long breath as he slowly opened his eyes. Then, the earth's trembles stopped."Mister, you're amazing!" Jewel was
That was right! Rachel and Ewan would get married the following day.The Carters had sent out invitations to the martial arts world's masters as well as their connections in the business world!Many of the World Universe's sects had gone to the New World to search for the Grand Weapon about a year ago. However, they had returned home empty-handed. When they returned, Ewan had begged his master, Ophelia Lane, the Jiangnan Elixir Association's Chairlady, to help him ask for Rachel's hand in marriage. She had personally visited the Carters a few times to discuss that, and they had finally agreed to her request about a month ago.At that moment, Zoran was in the main living hall, and he sat there with a cold expression. There was not a hint of joy on his face—a huge contrast to the festive decorations and atmosphere around him.Susan stood next to him; her exquisite face was filled with conflict and helplessness. "Zoran, it's Rachel's big day tomorrow, so can you stop acting like thi
The maidservant's forehead was sweating as she said, “This time the New World Army disguised themselves as fishermen coming from the New World, so no one noticed them!“I’m afraid their current distance to the Carter mansion is less than ten minutes! I received news that Miss Rachel and Mister Ewan might have taken something of importance from the New World Royals which made him furious so…”Slam! Zoran slammed on the table before she could finish and was trembling with rage, “This two filth again!”At that, Zoran said to the maidservant, “Go get Rachel!”She immediately went out upon feeling Zoran’s anger.At that instant, Zoran’s previous suppressed anger toward Rachel came bubbling up as he looked at Susan and angrily said, “You see? That two filth are causing troubles. They first killed Darryl then now ended up offending the New World Royals. I really don’t understand what’s so good about Ewan. Why are you so pleased with him that you agreed for him to be your son-in-law!”
Zoran was trembling from fury and lifted his hand—about to hit Rachel again. “You took the thing from the New World and still dare to talk back? You scum! You’re not daughter of mine!”Susan was anxious and furious that she immediately rushed over and stopped Zoran. “Can you calm down? What good will it do by hitting her now?”Susan then hastily said to Rachel, “Rachel, you too. Stop making your father angry. Did you take the Dzi bead from the New World? Bring it to us now.”Rachel felt inexplicably aggrieved. She stomped her feet and ran out crying.Susan slightly sighed as Rachel left and said, “Zoran, Rachel is your daughter no matter what and her wedding is tomorrow. Why are you treating her as if she’s the enemy? We’ll just return the bead to the New World Royals when Rachel brings it to us. I’m sure it’ll be fine.”Zoran took a deep breath and just sat there without saying a word with his darkened expression.Thud! At that moment, a loud sound could be heard. The gates of
