Chapter 665
“These Purple Miracle Pills are far more difficult to refine than I imagined. I nearly lost my life just now.”Adam wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, lingering fear flashing across his eyes. During the final stage of refinement, his spiritual energy had been stretched to its absolute limit. One moment of weakness and the alchemy pot would’ve backfired, destroying both the pills and himself. It was only through sheer willpower—and years of walking the line between life and death—that he had managed to endure.His chest rose and fell heavily.But then, a rich and intoxicating fragrance drifted into his nose.Adam’s eyes lit up instantly, and a brilliant smile spread across his face. All the exhaustion, all the danger—it had been worth it.He slowly lifted the lid of the alchemy pot.Inside lay nine Purple Miracle Pills, resting quietly in a ring of faint purple light. Each pill was crystal clear, as if carved from flawless emerald. Spiritual energy swirled around them, and the sce

Inside the alchemy room, once the heavy door sealed shut and the outside noises faded away, Adam finally relaxed his vigilance.Without hesitation, he picked up the century-old frostbloom. A faint chill radiated from the pale-blue petals, and the spiritual energy contained within it was so dense it was almost tangible. This was a sacred-grade healing herb—something countless experts would fight to the death over.Adam crushed it lightly between his fingers and swallowed it whole.The moment it entered his body, a surge of icy yet gentle energy exploded within his meridians. Adam immediately sat cross-legged on the floor, closing his eyes as he guided the medicinal essence through his body.Crack. Crack.The sound of bones and muscles knitting together echoed faintly inside him. The wounds that still lingered on his body—both internal and external—began healing at a speed visible to the naked eye. Torn muscles reconnected, fractured bones fused seamlessly, and damaged meridians were re

Adam remained outwardly composed, his expression calm and detached, but inside, his heart was surging with uncontrollable excitement.If he had relied on his own strength and connections to gather these four main spiritual herbs, it would have taken him at least ten years—perhaps even longer. Some of them might never have appeared on the market in his lifetime. Spiritual herbs of this level were rarely traded openly. They were usually hoarded by ancient families or hidden away by powerful organizations as trump cards.Although the Supreme Nexus and Bulgart Industry he founded were far stronger than the Marlowe family in terms of future potential, they were still too young. They lacked the deep-rooted networks, hidden channels, and centuries of accumulation that an ancient family like the Marlowes possessed. When it came to mobilizing resources across the entire Coastal Flair region, the Marlowes were still vastly superior.This deal alone had saved Adam an immeasurable amount of time
Chapter 662
“Really? That’s wonderful.”Lazarus couldn’t hide his excitement anymore. His eyes lit up as if a heavy boulder had finally been lifted from his chest. For days, he had been plagued by anxiety, uncertain whether he could ever gather all the required medicinal herbs. Now, in one conversation, the most difficult pieces had fallen into place.Dracula looked at him calmly and said flatly, “We may be partners, but business is business. How much are you willing to pay for it?”Lazarus hesitated for a brief moment before answering cautiously, “Twenty billion dollars. What do you think?”He wasn’t making a blind offer. At the most recent auction on Cosmic Island, a century-old dragon root had fetched exactly twenty billion dollars, setting a historical record. By any standard, it was already an astronomical price.Yet Dracula’s lips curved into a faint, disdainful smile.“Mr. Marlowe, it seems your sincerity is still lacking,” he said coolly. “A century-old dragon root is far more valuable th
Chapter 661
Lazarus had initially planned to introduce Adam to Dracula and the others. After all, a healer of such caliber was a rare sight, and building connections was never a bad thing. However, upon hearing that Adam needed to rest, Lazarus hesitated for only a moment before abandoning the idea. Right now, Julian’s recovery took precedence over everything else.After arranging for Adam to be escorted to the guest quarters under heavy guard, Lazarus returned to the main living room to receive his visitors.The atmosphere shifted the moment he stepped inside.Dracula, Romeo, and Selena sat calmly, each of them exuding an invisible pressure. They were people who stood at the peak of the underworld and the martial world alike.Lazarus smiled politely and clasped his hands.“Mr. Alvora, Mr. Trey, Mrs. Alvora—what brings the three of you here today?” he asked, his tone measured.Selena crossed her legs elegantly and smiled.“We’ve received reliable information that Adam might be hiding in Ray City.
Chapter 660
Julian, who had finally seen a glimmer of hope after years of despair, grew anxious the moment Adam spoke.“Whitney,” Julian said urgently, his voice trembling, “just endure it for now. Do it for me.”“No way! Absolutely not!” Whitney snapped without the slightest hesitation. Her face flushed with anger and humiliation. As the treasured daughter of the Marlowe family, she had been pampered since birth. Servants bowed to her, elders indulged her—how could she possibly lower herself to wash another person’s feet?“Whitney, just bear it for your brother’s sake,” Lazarus urged, his tone heavy. “This concerns the future of our family.”Whitney clenched her fists, her nails digging into her palms. She wanted to scream, to smash something, to draw her sword again—but she didn’t dare. Lazarus’s authority was absolute.After a long, suffocating silence, she turned away sharply. Moments later, she returned with a basin of warm water, her movements stiff and resentful.She knelt down reluctantly
