*****

Still in the massive dining hall, whose table overflowed with an elaborate feast

Right now, although Xavier noticed the brothers' sudden excitement, he didn’t give it much thought. Instead, he just assumed they were happy because they were eager for him to leave, that since he was about to eat, his departure was imminent, so he simply offered a wry smile before ignoring them.

"Okay," he replied to the old man's request, and just at that moment, he noticed the brothers’ breaths quicken, their gazes becoming several times burning on him, making Xavier’s brows finally raise.

‘Are they this disturbed by my presence?’ he wondered, sensing their heightened agitation. But with a light shrug, he finally turned his attention to the table, observing the numerous golden platters neatly and orderly arranged on it, all covered and waiting to be opened.

In front of him only, eight golden plates of varying sizes lay, and knowing he was the center of attention, Xavier reached slowly toward

  • Chapter 1034 – The Prime Minister’s Relief

    *****Of course, the Prime Minister noticed every tremor, every bead of sweat, and every shallow, panicked breath of the five aides.But he doesn’t feel satisfied… not even the slightest bit.And why would he be?He five hadn’t merely intentionally misunderstood a situation; they had even accused the Erudite Grandmaster of being a Black Voodoo user, controlling him with black voodoo.Dang it.They had even mobilized armed men… trained killers to come deal with him, and probably even execute him.The mere thought made the Prime Minister feel a chill race down his spine, his heart skipping violently in his chest, especially knowing well that this particular conversation wouldn’t even be happening if they had actually met Xavier.Even if he personally wouldn’t allow a single weapon to be raised, what about the sheer insult, humiliation, and casual disregard?The Prime Minister’s soul nearly leapt out of his body in terror.For the first time since Xavier left, he felt genuine,

  • Chapter 1033 – The Aides’ Terror

    *****The Prime Minister’s words sounded so earnest that, to anyone lacking sense, it would have sounded genuine.But anyone with even the slightest shred of intelligence could instantly hear the venom, scathing sarcasm, and fury buried beneath every word.And the five aides… having clawed their way to the heights of power they currently hold, were not fools.They immediately saw through it, and in the very next second…They froze.It wasn’t like before, where they were just flabbergasted... no.This time… it was realization.The Prime Minister’s sarcastic words slammed into them like a hammer, smashing through the last remnants of denial in them.And in that instant, something colossal detonated inside their minds.‘Yes, how was that person even able to get the Prime Minister’s emergency number… one known only to a microscopic circle if he was not someone he already knows?’The thought struck the five aides like a sledgehammer to the skull.‘Moreover, given the Prime Mini

  • Chapter 1032 – “He’s Not The Erudite Grandmaster”

    *****At this moment, the five aides weren’t merely shocked… they were completely thunderstruck and frozen stiff, appearing as though lightning itself had shot out of the sky and struck them where they stood, their minds lagging several beats behind reality.In fact, for a brief second, none of them could even remember how to breathe.If anything, the reason they had been so utterly convinced that Xavier had used some unethical, underhanded method to control the Prime Minister began to replay itself in their minds… one detail at a time.First, it was due to Xavier’s appearance… far too young to deserve the Grandmaster identity the Prime Minister had initially used for him.He barely looked over twenty-five, with an air that screamed young master rather than transcendent existence… someone you would expect to see stepping out of a luxury car.As for the second… it was the Prime Minister himself.He was renowned across the state for his unshakable composure… a leader who could fa

  • Chapter 1031 – The Truth

    *****When the SSF captain finally finished reporting everything, a thick, heavy, and suffocating silence returned, enveloping everyone.As for the Prime Minister, he didn’t move, didn’t speak, and didn’t blink.Instead, he just stood there, staring ahead, his eyes unfocused, as the captain’s report replayed in his mind again… and again… and again.It felt so unreal and so absurd that it almost crossed the line into comedy… except no one was laughing.He didn’t know how long he stood there before reality finally caught up.Then slowly and deliberately, he released a long breath before waving a hand.In the following second, the SSF captain snapped to attention and stepped back, and only then did the Prime Minister gaze back at the aides.“Is all of the report true?” he askedUnlike before, his voice was calm… too calm, in fact.There was no anger, no disbelief, and no sarcasm. Just composed and chilling neutrality.But the instant the aides heard that tone, their bodies rea

  • Chapter 1030 – The Prime Minister's Explosion II

    *****“There… there is no one in the vehicle,” the SSF captain reported, each word measured, cautious, and painfully respectful.However, the instant the words landed, the Prime Minister’s jaw tightened… not with confusion, but with pure, unfiltered fury.“Of course not!” he snapped, the words exploding out of him like a gunshot.As for the five aides, they froze in place, none of them even breathing for a second. Then…“How… how is this possible?” the OSD exclaimed, her voice pitching higher as disbelief took over.Her eyes widened as if reality itself had just betrayed her. “Didn’t… didn’t the Wise Old Man say the Black Voodoo user must be present, that a black magic that powerful can’t be performed unless the caster is physically present with the subject?”The others immediately furrowed their brows, their expressions twisting.One of them even opened his mouth, closed it, then opened it again, clearly struggling to align facts with nonsense.Meanwhile, the Prime Minister

  • Chapter 1029 – The Prime Minister's Explosion

    *****“What in the great, wide world is actually going on here?!” he finally exploded, his voice thundering across the street.“Can someone… anyone please speak like I am standing right here and explain what is happening to me?!”The aides flinched violently.But instead of answering him… they ignored him again, all of them exchanging grave glances.“The Wise Old Man also mentioned,” another aide continued thoughtfully, rubbing his chin, “that after release, the Prime Minister would be extremely sullen, irritable, and unusually hostile.”“…Yes,” another gravely nodded his head. “Very aggressive and even possibly prone to shouting.”And… that was it.At first, the Prime Minister simply stood there, rigid and unmoving… like a man whose soul had momentarily left his body.But then…Dang it!!!”The curse suddenly erupted from his mouth like a grenade, making the aides nearly jump out of their skin.In the following second, their faces drained of color, panic exploding across t
