Verity also watched the scene, puzzled. In their previous encounters, Albert had never acted so recklessly.Brother Albert!Selene wailed. I guess we’ll be brothers in the next life!Amid all the mixed stares, Albert remained unusually calm. Staring at the onrushing toxic light, he summoned Netherworld Soul Fire from the hand gripping the staff, sending it surging into the bamboo staff.As the Netherworld Soul Fire flowed, the staff trembled violently.What happened next stunned everyone in the hall: the toxic light that was about to engulf Albert suddenly split apart, nimbly avoiding his body.The poisonous glow then recoiled and was swallowed back by the cyan giant python coiled around the Green Bamboo Staff.The python hissed softly, its vertical pupils fixed on Albert. It inched closer and let out a gentle, affectionate hiss.At the same time, streams of information flooded Albert’s mind.Green Bamboo Serpent Staff — a triple Purple-Eye treasure, forged from ten-thousand-year gree

Albert looked up at the others who had also seized treasures, only to find their expressions extremely grim. Evidently, the treasures they had obtained bore similar seals.Albert pondered for a moment, then condensed a wisp of Netherworld Soul Fire and tentatively channeled it into the fan to touch the seal.To his pleasant surprise, the Netherworld Soul Fire circled the seal once and burned it away completely.Albert then poured his soul power into the fan once more and refined the green feather fan with ease.As he refined it, a stream of information flooded into his mind.Purple-Eye Treasure — Profound Wood Feather Fan. It can unleash the ‘Mysterious Light of Life and Death’: the white Life Light strengthens the body and heals wounds; the black Death Light dissolves flesh and bone.Holding the green feather fan, Albert’s eyes lit up with interest. The fan was forged from a special spiritual wood that grew on ancient battlefields, feeding on corpses. Yet once fully grown, it brimmed

So everyone struck at the same time, unleashing wave after wave of formidable soul power attacks toward one corner of the hall entrance. Faced with their combined assault, the spirit patterns on the gate flickered continuously yet remained completely unmoved.Albert also unleashed his soul power at this moment, but within it, he concealed a wisp of Netherworld Soul Fire.Albert’s soul power, along with the many other attacks, landed on the hall gate. Immediately, the numerous spirit patterns upon it began to flare violently.Seeing this, Selene exclaimed joyfully, It’s working! Increase the attack!Everyone’s spirits rose, and their assaults poured forth like a tidal wave.Albert maintained a steady stream of attacks, and with his secret interference, the glowing patterns on the gate grew dimmer and dimmer. After several minutes, they finally vanished entirely.The great hall door creaked open slowly at that moment.Albert, Verity, and the others rushed inside almost instantly. Everyo

He turned to glance at Euphemia, who was close behind him. A faint tinge of color was beginning to return to her pale, lovely face.Earlier, Albert had channeled the soul power of his Water Elemental Soul, Wood Elemental Soul, and Light Elemental Soul to cast several restorative soul techniques on Euphemia, which could speed up her recovery of soul power and wounds.Lost in these thoughts, the three of them leaped over a tall courtyard roof. Albert glanced back, only to pause suddenly in a certain direction.That area was already shrouded in black mist, yet within the dense fog, there was a blank space.From afar, Albert vaguely made out a figure standing in that empty area.Could that be… the lantern-bearer we saw earlier?A flicker of thought crossed Albert’s mind. The lantern-bearer was presumably the most prestigious figure in the Golden Hall, and his strength ought to be extraordinary. Yet he acted like a mindless zombie. Even now, with black mist spreading everywhere, he showed

Euphemia fell silent for a moment, then said:They are not ordinary otherworldly beings. They should be a special kind of existence fused with otherworldly creatures. So unless they reveal themselves voluntarily, even God-Rank experts might not be able to detect them.The Soul-Devouring True Devil I encountered earlier was probably targeting me. I fought it, and it was extremely difficult to deal with.Albert’s expression turned grave. If even Euphemia considered it extremely tough, one could imagine how dangerous their battle had been — no wonder the energy fluctuation it unleashed had been so terrifying.Still, it didn’t get what it wanted. I repelled it in the end, Euphemia said in her soft, weak voice, yet her words were surprisingly formidable.You’re amazing, Cousin Euphemia. If Tabor had run into this thing, he would have fared far worse, Albert said, trying to comfort her.Euphemia smiled bitterly. Although I repelled it, I was also eroded by its aura. That’s why I lost contro

Albert said, She has at least seventy or eighty drops of Soul Golden Dew in her hand.Selene fell silent for a second, then said, Is it still too late to catch up to her?Albert shot him an amused glance but ignored the question, turning to dash toward the direction where the terrifying energy fluctuation had earlier erupted.Selene hurried to follow.The two moved quickly through the Golden Hall’s intricate layout. By now, the area had descended into chaos: various factions fought fiercely over Soul Golden Dew, guardian spirits roamed killing indiscriminately, and eerie rogue cultivators seemingly corrupted by otherworldly forces kept appearing.Battles raged everywhere, turning the place into utter turmoil.Some reckless even targeted Albert and Selene, but after the two displayed overwhelming force, they deterred most ill‑intentioned intruders.Meanwhile, powerful experts at the Four-Star or even Five-Star Early Heavenly Spirit Realm held back, wary of the pair’s status.With Soul

She was just about to walk over and speak to Alan excitedly when a large crowd of reporters suddenly appeared and surrounded her completely.Kara was now the most talked-about person in all of Pless City, so the reporters were naturally eager to conduct an in-depth interview with her.Trapped by the reporters, Kara grew anxious and found herself distracted from their questions.At that moment, seeing what was happening, Alan sent her a WeChat message:Kara, just do the TV interviews properly. It’ll be good for your future. I have some things to take care of, so I’ll head off first.When Kara saw the message, she stood on tiptoe and looked out of the crowd, only to see that Alan was already far away. She couldn’t help feeling a little disappointed.But remembering what Alan had written, she calmed down and began answering the reporters’ questions patiently.Meanwhile, Alan had just arrived at the parking lot when he saw Claude’s Rolls-Royce parked right next to his father-in-law’s BMW.

She asked herself inwardly, Is the distress in Alan’s eyes for me? Does he feel sorry for me?The next moment, she thought to herself in self-mockery, Why would he care about me? To him, I’m just a Japanese girl. And my strength is utterly insignificant in his eyes, like an ant. What’s more, my people have hurt his people, and my master once insulted him. Even if I haven’t offended him personally, he must dislike me.So even if he pities Michelle across from him, he would never feel sorry for me.But… but the way he looked at me really did seem like he cared! Could it be that he actually feels bad for me?It seems there’s only one way to find out if he’s worried about me!With that thought, as Ito Keiko blocked Michelle’s attack, she deliberately left an opening.Michelle seized the chance and punched Ito Keiko square in the right cheek, turning it black and blue, with traces of blood seeping out.As she took the punch head-on, Ito Keiko kept her eyes fixed on Alan.She noticed that t

At this moment, the four contestants stepped onto two separate rings.The two rings stood side by side, left and right, each surrounded by spectator stands.The venue was packed to capacity today. Before the matches even began, applause, whistles, and cheers erupted endlessly from the audience.Allen stood just below the ring, behind Kara — the standard position for a coach in a kickboxing match.The opposing coach watched him nervously, then glanced repeatedly at Kara on the ring, towel at the ready. The moment his student could no longer hold on, he would throw in the towel to concede defeat as quickly as possible.On the ring, Kara stared coldly at her opponent, Victoria.Before Allen had helped her improve her physique, she had been no match for Victoria. After all, the Australian girl was tall and sturdy, with physical capabilities far exceeding Kara’s old self.But now, she possessed unshakable confidence in defeating Victoria.She was only deciding on the exact move she would u

Kara’s current ability was far beyond that of the other competitors. She simply lacked some tactical experience; with more practice, her combat skills would improve even further.Kara felt a little unsure inside, but seeing how much confidence Alan had in her, she immediately nodded and said firmly, Don’t worry, Coach. I will give it my all!At this moment, in another lounge.Ito Keiko was wrapped in a blanket, resting with her eyes closed.Tanaka Koichi and Kobayashi Jiro stood nearby. Tanaka held a mobile phone, which was on a video call with Yamamoto Ichiki, who was lying in a hospital bed.However, Yamamoto Ichiki on the other end said nothing. He simply watched his beloved apprentice quietly through Tanaka’s camera.Yamamoto Ichiki was worried that Ito Keiko’s mentality might collapse.After all, Alan’s appearance had overturned the understanding of both master and apprentice, dealing a heavy blow to their motivation.Even so, Yamamoto Ichiki still hoped that Ito Keiko would perf

Juliet’s private jet was parked in the airport’s business jet hangar. There were no other passengers, reporters, or paparazzi here, granting her maximum privacy.It was here that Alan met Juliet, dressed in a sharp, tailored blazer.At this moment, Juliet looked like a perfect career woman.When she saw Alan arrive, she couldn’t help but show the shyness and joy of a young woman.Ever since they had reunited, Alan’s figure had lingered in her mind nonstop.Although the only memories she shared with him were from her early childhood, those years-old moments had been replayed and reinforced in her mind so many times that they remained etched in her memory.Moreover, Juliet had been giving herself psychological for more than a decade, making that influence even deeper — so deeply rooted that it had become ingrained in her very bones.So as soon as they reunited, she immediately slipped into the role of his fiancée.Last night, as she fell asleep, she had even begun imagining their weddin

Mia never expected Alan to offer to help her mother look into the cosmetics. She felt utterly helpless and asked him, Honey, how come I never heard you have a friend in the cosmetics business?Alan smiled and said, Ever since I started doing feng shui consultations, my social circle has grown wider and wider. Otherwise, how would I have met Berger, the CEO of True Yuan Pharmaceuticals? If I hadn’t known Berger, you wouldn’t have had the chance to have dinner with a big star like Juliet, right?Mia nodded slightly and sighed, It’s better not to owe people favors if we can help it. That caviar anti-aging cosmetics set costs over a hundred thousand yuan. It’s really too extravagant for a family like ours; it’s not necessary.Ava panicked and quickly said, Sweetheart! What do you mean it’s not necessary? My good son-in-law Alan already said he’d get it for me. Don’t talk nonsense here!She then turned to Alan with a beaming smile and said, Alan! Mom’s old face depends entirely on you. Oth
