2024-09-04 17:09:14Immediately Mr. Lee saw Adam, he got up from his seat to approach him, he had always dreamt of meeting the Supreme General in person. "Mr. Manchester, I am Jinhoo Lee, the CEO of Bulgart Industry. It is an honor to finally meet you."
"I'm already aware who you are Mr. Lee, as a matter of fact I will request a short meeting with you." Adam stated, hearing this Mr. Lee felt like it was a dream, did Mr. Manchester want to meet with him? "Of course, whenever you are ready, I will be too." He said excitedly. "Next week." Adam said with a smile. "Sure, I'll be free next week." They shook hands again. And then Adam left to his table with Stacey. "What do you have in mind this time, Lord Adam?" "Don't worry you'll find out soon." Adam smirked. Stacey rolled her eyes. President Ryan suddenly approached Adam. “Mr. Manchester, do you mind sharing a table with me? I have some honorable guests I would like to introduce you to.” “Sure.” Adam Joined the President with other most influential people in the world, including governors and invited Presidents from other nations. The four Generals were also seated at the table, doctor Bryan was also honored to be seated amongst them. Afterall he is the world's number one healer. After the banquet, the party lasted for three days before everyone returned to their various Cities and countries. Even after the celebration the news was still heavy on the Internet about the return of the supreme General. Adam was in his private lounge, his legs crossed on a table before Stacey walked in, she was dressed officially. "Lord Adam, he's arrived. Mr. Lee." "Bring him in." Adam sat across from Jihoon Lee in his private lounge, sipping fine scotch. "Jihoon, I've admired Bulgart Industry's remarkable growth under your leadership," Adam began. "Your vision transformed coastal Flair into a global hub." Jihoon smiled, pride evident in his eyes. "Thank you, Adam. We've worked tirelessly." Adam leaned forward. "I'm here to make you an offer. I want to acquire the Bulgart Industry." Jihoon's expression turned guarded. "I'm not interested in selling." Adam anticipated this response. "Hear me out. I'm willing to offer 10 trillion dollars." Jihoon's eyes widened, his composure momentarily shaken. Bulgart Industry's net worth was 4 trillion; Adam's offer was more than double. "What makes you think I'd consider this?" Jihoon asked, regaining his poise. "Your legacy will be secured, Jihoon. The Bulgart Industry will continue thriving under my leadership. I'll ensure your vision expands globally." Jihoon hesitated, weighing his options. His children had expressed interest in pursuing other passions, and retirement beckoned. "Ten trillion is...tempting," Jihoon admitted. "But I need assurances." "Name them," Adam replied, crossing his fingers on the table. "Retain all employees, maintain headquarters in coastal Flair, and continue our philanthropic efforts." Adam nodded. "Agreed. I'll also establish the Jihoon Lee Foundation, dedicating 1% of annual profits to supporting coastal Flair's community." Jihoon's resolve crumbled. He extended his hand. "Deal." Adam smiled, shaking Jihoon's hand. Of course he had other motives for buying the biggest industry in the World. He wasn't interested in business whatsoever, his goal was to use this means to crumble Almond City and his enemies together in it. The news escalated throughout the City, "Jinhoo Lee, the Business God sold the unbeatable Bulgart Industry to Mr. Manchester." Considering how Jinhoo was proud of his company, no one ever believed he'd one day sell it. Maybe it was because he was getting old, some thought. They all wondered the amount he would sell his company.

Francis’ worry eased slightly at the masked man’s words. The reassurance gave him a fleeting sense of relief — fleeting, because even if Xander Sanders was dead, his shadow still lingered through his disciple.“Alright,” Francis muttered after a long pause, his voice low and cold. “But there’s another matter. Even if Xander is gone, his disciple remains. We can’t allow him to grow any stronger. We need to deal with him before he becomes a problem.”The masked man leaned back in his chair, arms crossed beneath his dark robes. His tone was dismissive. “He’s just a youngster. There’s nothing to fear. You’re overthinking this.”Francis frowned, his eyes flashing. “Don’t underestimate him,” he said sharply. “You didn’t see what I saw. He easily defeated my son, Maverick, without breaking a sweat. His talent is terrifying. In ten years—or perhaps even sooner—he could reach the Divine Realm.”That caught the masked man’s attention. His body stiffened ever so slightly, the only sign that Fran

Adam’s eyes darkened with sorrow at the mention of Xander Sanders, the man who had been more than just a mentor to him—he had been family. The faint ache that flickered across Adam’s face didn’t go unnoticed by Leah, though she kept silent, sensing the weight behind that look.“Yes,” Bruce declared, his deep voice echoing across the courtyard like a rolling storm. “He is my future son-in-law. And anyone who dares to harm him—” his gaze swept over the crowd like a blade “—will answer to me personally!”A suffocating pressure rippled outward, forcing several onlookers to lower their heads instinctively. Even Francis, a divine grandmaster, felt the invisible force pressing against his chest. Bruce Sanders in full authority was not someone anyone dared to provoke.Francis’s eyes narrowed, his pride smarting, but he didn’t dare challenge Bruce head-on. Instead, he turned to Adam, his tone cold. “Where is your mentor now?”Adam’s expression didn’t waver, though his heart tightened. “He’s li

Francis’s expression darkened as he lifted his arm, power coiling in his palm like a living storm. A low hum filled the air, sharp enough to make the skin on everyone’s arms prickle. The energy sphere swelled and pulsed with dangerous light—first the size of a fist, then a melon, then a miniature sun. The surrounding air warped and crackled, sending waves of pressure rippling through the courtyard.Gasps and fearful murmurs broke out among the spectators. Men staggered backward, clutching at their chests as the pressure intensified. The ground quivered; dust rose in trembling spirals.Adam stood firm. His fists clenched so tightly his knuckles turned white. Though the veins on his arms bulged and sweat traced cold paths down his temples, he did not flinch. He had no illusions about the outcome—Francis was a divine grandmaster, and Adam’s odds were next to zero—but retreat wasn’t in his blood.At his side, Dante and Ese mirrored his resolve. They exchanged a quick glance—wordless, grim

Adam’s jaw tightened until the line of it looked like a blade. Francis was no ordinary threat — a divine grandmaster, his presence folded around him like armor. On a field of battle, Francis moved mountains. Adam’s chances were paper-thin; if Francis chose to end him here, there would be nothing left to bargain with.The air in the courtyard felt suddenly thinner, as if the world was holding its breath. Torches guttered, throwing long, jaundiced shadows across cracked stone. Men who had been laughing an hour ago went quiet, their faces threaded with anticipation and fear. Even the dogs at the edge of the compound had pressed their noses to the ground, sensitive to the change.Francis didn’t look like a man about to ask for mercy. He filled the space with a kind of slow, unhurried thunder. “How dare you injure my son on our territory? You’ve got some guts!” His voice rolled over the crowd, a command dressed in contempt. It vibrated through Adam’s ribs and lodged like a warning.Adam’s

The Four Great Immortal Sects were not just powerful—they were the foundation upon which the entire cultivation world stood. Every major family, sect, or hidden clan, no matter how proud, paled before them. Their names carried weight that could silence an entire battlefield.They were—Eastsea Cosmic Island, the ruler of the Eastern seas.Infernal Gate of Berkath, the fiery forge of the North.West of Everlight, the domain of eternal brilliance.Southwind Divine, the sacred storm of the South.Each sect was an empire in its own right. But among them, Eastsea Cosmic Island stood out as the most politically intricate. It was home to four of the continent’s most powerful families—the Sanders, Armand, York, and Lennon clans.Even the Sanders family, ranked only third among the four, wielded terrifying influence. They boasted dozens of grandmasters among their younger generation alone. Their elders were even more fearsome; rumor had it that within their ranks, multiple divine grandmasters

Adam’s sneer cut through the chaos like a blade. “Too slow,” he murmured.In the same instant, his arm shot up. His hand closed around Maverick’s ankle mid-kick with unholy precision. Before anyone could even gasp, Adam pivoted backward, using Maverick’s momentum against him.Then—boom!He slammed Maverick into the ground with bone-shattering force.The earth cracked. Shockwaves rippled outward, blowing dust and shards of tile into the air. The ground beneath Maverick collapsed into a crater three inches deep, spiderweb cracks spreading like veins of destruction.The crowd stumbled back as the tremors reached their feet.Even for a late-stage grandmaster, the force was monstrous. Any normal man would’ve died instantly, crushed into paste. Maverick’s reinforced body held together—but the pain was savage. Blood rushed up his throat; his ribs screamed under the impact.“Argh!” he bellowed, veins bulging across his temples.For a moment, silence hung in the air. Then Maverick snapped back
