"what are you doing..." Adam's question was swallowed by Rachael's hungry lips as she devoured his mouth in a passionate kiss. He couldn't resist the temptation to surrender to her desire, wrapping his arms around her waist and pulling her close. As they kissed, Adam's hands roamed, caressing her curves and trying to undress her, but just as they were lost in the moment, the lights flickered on, illuminating the room and teasing them with reality.

Adam was startled and turned back to look who it was and saw his wife standing at the door in shock with the entire family and Drake. "What the F..." Adam's confusion was at the peak. If Racheal was standing at the door who the hell was he kissing? He slowly turned to look at the person he almost made out with a second ago.

The teary face of Rhea welcomed him. She unleashed a heavy slap as she started crying and ran towards her sister Racheal. "Racheal, he did it again. Adam tried to sleep with me forcefully."

"What?!" Adam knew he was going to be in a lot of trouble, there was no way he was going to prove he was innocent in this situation, they had tricked him.

"No no no, Racheal this isn't what it seems like" Adam stammered walking to his wife, holding her arms. "I didn't try to do anything with her, she was the one who tried to sleep with me. I..."

A heavy punch from Mr. Luther connected with his face, Adam fell on the floor the punch caused an injury on his lips.

"You moron, you did it again didn't you?" Robin clenched his fist, he was about to beat the hell out of Adam but Luther held him back.

"Despite how my entire family wanted you out of this family, I still respected your deal with my father and allowed you to remain Racheal's husband. Is this how you repay me? By trying to rape my other daughter? Your own sister in-law? What kind of a man would do such a thing?" Mr. Luther growled.

"I can't believe this worthless trash is worse than I thought." Drake said in disgust.

"Oh, Luther, thank God you've finally come to your senses!" Monica exclaimed, her voice dripping with relief and a hint of vindication.

"This...this...parasite needs to divorce our daughter and get out of our lives for good!" she spat, her words laced with venom and disgust. "I can barely look at him, he's so beneath us. Get him out, Luther, get him out!"

"After insulting me at the party you had the guts to still make an attempt to rape my niece?" His aunty in-law finally had the opportunity to get her revenge.

The whole family was abusing and cursing Adam, his attention wasn't on them, he was focused on Racheal.

"You aren't saying anything." He asked her, looking straight to her eyes.

"What'd you want her to say, you're a monster and you're getting divorced right away!" Rhea interrupted but Adam ignored her.

"I'm talking to you Rachael, say something. You know all these accusations are false."

Rachael's voice dripped with malice as she spoke with conviction. "Adam, there's no denying what we all saw. You were forcing yourself on Rhea, and I won't stand by and let you get away with it."

Her eyes flashed with a triumphant gleam, revealing the depth of her manipulation. "I think it's best if we just end this marriage. You're clearly not the man I thought you were." Rachael's smile was a thin, cruel line, her voice dripping with satisfaction as she watched Adam's reaction.

Adam's eyes widened in shock and disbelief as Rachael's words cut through him like a knife. He felt like he'd been punched in the gut, his mind reeling from the accusations. "What are you talking about, Rachael? You know that's not what happened!" he protested, his voice rising in defense.

"You heard her right, you too are getting divorced, you slum!" Drake cursed.

"I can't stand a man who will continue playing me, father I'm ready to get a divorce." Racheal added.

Adam gritted his teeth, his chest heaved with labored breaths, his nostrils flaring with each exhale.

"You're the one who's been manipulating everything from the start! You're the one who's been playing me, using me for your own twisted games!" Adam's anger flared, his face hot with indignation.

"How can you do this, Rachael? How can you stoop so low?"

"What the hell are you blabbering about?" Rachael acted innocent.

"You planned all of this, didn't you? I should have known. First you made me look like a clown at your birthday party and planned all this with your sister just to paint me bad in the presence of your father and make this divorce work!" Adam roared.

"Enough of your nonsense!" Monica's voice was venomous. "How dare you accuse my daughter! You're not worthy of her. She's a gem, and every decent man would be lucky to have her. You're just a scumbag, nobody!"

Adam's chuckle was cold "So, I'm garbage now? And she's too good for me? That's rich, coming from you. I recall when your family was desperate for someone, anyone, to marry Rachael. She was disabled, and no one wanted her."

Adam's anger simmered just below the surface. "Three years ago, Rachael was confined to a wheelchair.

And I'm the one who helped her walk again. I accepted this marriage because I needed the money for my mother's treatment. But after grandfather passed away, you reneged on your promises. You didn't give me a dime."

Adam's voice rose, his words laced with indignation. "But I didn't abandon Rachael. I took care of her, bathed her, cooked for her, and loved her with all my heart. I even donated my own organ to save her life and made her be able to use her feet again. And now, you have the audacity to say I don't deserve her?"

The room fell silent, the family's collective gaze fixed on Adam as he poured out his heart. The weight of their guilt was palpable. Monica's eyes darted away, her face flushed with shame. Rachael and The rest of the family seemed frozen, their faces etched with a mix of shock, anger, and regret.

"Enough of your nonsense!" Mr. Luther spoke, breaking the silence.

"You should be grateful that we still accepted you as our son-in-law and gave you shelter, even if my daughter wanted a divorce I still honored my father's deal with you and let you stay in our mansion, what more could we do for you?" Luther spoke aggressively.

"I'm done with this farce of a relationship, and I'm exhausted from the constant drama. If you're so eager to get rid of me and divorce, then be prepared to uphold your end of the bargain. I demand the $10 million, as agreed upon. But that's not all - I want my kidney back. You may have manipulated me into donating it, but I won't let you keep it as a twisted souvenir of our toxic marriage. Return my organ, and maybe then we can discuss the terms of our separation."

Rachael's eyes widened in horror, her face pale and frozen in shock. Fear and disbelief etched on her features, her lips parted in a silent gasp.

    Francis remained completely unaware that the man sitting before him was an impostor.The real Brad rarely showed himself in public. Most of his days were spent in secluded cultivation, emerging only on rare occasions. Because of this, very few people truly knew him well enough to notice anything unusual.Inside the hall, Adam quietly observed everyone present.Besides Francis, there was Jake Sanders, Francis’ son. Although Jake appeared calm on the surface, his eyes revealed a sharp and calculating nature.Seated nearby was Ian Sanders, the most influential figure in the Sanders family after Bruce. He was Bruce’s uncle and Francis’ elder uncle, a supreme grandmaster whose strength was respected throughout Cosmic Island.There was also Vera Lennon.She was in her early twenties and possessed striking beauty along with an aristocratic temperament. As Luke Lennon’s younger sister and one of the Lennons’ most favored descendants, her status was extraordinarily high.The moment Adam entere

    “How dare you question me?”Adam’s eyes narrowed as he glared at the guard.The pressure of a Divine Realm expert leaked from his body, causing the surrounding guards to instinctively lower their heads.“What I do is none of your concern.”“Remain here and continue carrying out your duties.”“If anything happens, I’ll personally bear the responsibility.”His voice was cold and authoritative.The guard’s face immediately turned pale.“I-I understand, Elder Brad.”The others didn’t dare say another word.Although Brad was only the Eleventh Elder of the Lennon family, his status was far above theirs.Questioning an Elder’s decision was already a serious offense.“Hmph!”Adam let out a cold snort before turning around and leaving.The guards watched his departing figure until he disappeared into the darkness.Only then did they finally relax.None of them noticed anything unusual.After all, who would imagine that the man they had just spoken to was actually Adam Manchester?Moving throug

    “Everything is fine. Stay at your posts and don’t wander around.”Adam deliberately lowered his voice as he spoke.The tone, mannerisms, and even the slight arrogance in his speech were almost identical to Brad’s.Although not absolutely perfect, it was convincing enough to fool the guards outside.“Understood, Elder Brad!”The men immediately relaxed.None of them suspected anything.Inside the pigsty, Brad’s lifeless body lay on the ground, his eyes still wide open.Even in death, his face remained frozen in shock and terror.He never imagined that a young outsider would kill him so effortlessly.Nor had he imagined that he would die on Cosmic Island itself.Adam looked down at the corpse expressionlessly.Then he crouched beside it and searched through Brad’s belongings.He quickly found a small storage pouch, several identity tokens, and a few personal items.Among them was a special skin-like material.A smile appeared on Adam’s face.As the former Supreme General, disguise and i

    “I smelled a powerful pill fragrance coming from this place,” Brad said as his eyes locked onto Adam.“It was clearly coming from this room.”His gaze swept across every corner of the pigsty before returning to Adam.“Bring the pills out.”“I want to inspect them.”His tone wasn’t a request.It was an order.Adam’s expression changed slightly.“There are no pills here, Elder Brad. You must have smelled something else.”As he spoke, he subtly moved one hand behind his back.The motion was extremely natural.Unfortunately for him, Brad saw everything.A sneer appeared on the elder’s face.He had already noticed the faint purple object hidden in Adam’s hand.The fragrance coming from it was enough to make his heart race.The greed in his eyes became even more obvious.“Boy, do you think I’m blind?”Brad took a step forward.“The fragrance is coming from your hand.”“Hand it over immediately.”Adam instinctively took two steps backward.A trace of panic appeared on his face.“Elder Brad,

    The four great families of Cosmic Island stood at the very peak of the island’s power structure.Each family possessed countless experts, vast resources, and centuries of accumulated influence.Within these families, the position of Elder was not given lightly.Only those who had reached the Pre-Divine Realm were qualified to hold such status.Every Elder was a respected powerhouse capable of shaking an entire region with a single command.Although Adam’s spiritual senses had become extraordinarily powerful after entering the Divine Realm, he didn’t recklessly probe the cultivation of others.A Pre-Divine grandmaster’s perception was extremely sharp.The moment Adam attempted to inspect their cultivation directly, they would immediately notice.At this stage, exposing his true strength would only complicate matters.Therefore, he chose patience.Still, judging from the aura he sensed earlier, Adam estimated that the elder stationed outside was merely an ordinary Elder among the Lennon

    “That’s right. Young Master Luke specially prepared this mansion just for you. There isn’t another place like it on the entire island.”“It perfectly matches your esteemed status.”“We’re sure you’ll be very satisfied.”The men exchanged mocking glances and chuckled among themselves.Not one of them took Adam seriously.They had heard of his reputation.They knew he had defeated Flynn York.But so what?This was Cosmic Island.The territory of the hidden families.No matter how powerful Adam was, he was merely an outsider here.And outsiders had no right to challenge the rulers of Cosmic Island.A cold light flashed through Adam’s eyes.For a brief moment, murderous intent surged within him.However, he quickly suppressed it.Now was not the time.The Sanders family’s situation remained unclear, and acting rashly would only alert his enemies.“Very well,” Adam said calmly.“You may leave. I need to rest.”“Of course.”The group turned around and began walking away.After a few steps,
