Chapter 513 - Lyria’s Reverent for Xavier
*****Back inside the herbal emporium, the atmosphere had shifted significantly.Aside from the still-unconscious Vidor sprawled like a discarded puppet and his terrified subordinate who was doing everything possible to blend into the shadows, only Xavier, Little Lola, Lyria, and Sage Myron remained.Little Lola, full of childlike curiosity and untainted innocence, clung affectionately to Xavier’s arm. Her bright eyes sparkled with intrigue as she peered up at the elderly Sage and his elegant granddaughter, her tiny chin tilted curiously upward.Xavier, composed yet faintly tense, observed the pair in silence. His gaze was calm but carried a subtle undercurrent of expectancy.The grandfather and granddaughter duo, however, wore matching expressions of furrowed brows and thoughtful bewilderment. Their foreheads nearly touched as they leaned toward one another, puzzling over the information Xavier had provided.Finally, Lyria spoke up.“A 120-year-old Wild Ginseng, a 90-year-old
Chapter 512 – Sage Myron’s Anxiousness and Relief
*****‘Did she really just try to use the big boss’s name to intimidate Sage Myron?’ Vidor’s underling couldn’t help but think in disbelief, struggling to decide whether to laugh hysterically or weep at the absurdity.Meanwhile, all eyes zeroed in on Madam Tush.The atmosphere grew suffocating as every gaze directed at her brimmed with revulsion, contempt, and unfiltered disgust. It was as though she had just spat in the face of a deity.For a split second, Madam Tush was confused, wondering what she had said wrong. But then clarity struck her like a whip. Her foolishness, her arrogance, and her utter miscalculation washed over her like a cold wave.‘Would even my lover dare provoke someone of Sage Myron’s caliber?’The moment this thought registered in her mind, a hollow chill rippled through her spine.Her limbs weakened, and her arrogance began to crack.But just then—“Take her.”Sage Myron’s voice rang out, quiet, commanding, and filled with finality.The command wasn’
Chapter 511 – Madam Tush’s Idiocy
*****After hearing Sage Myron's thunderous decree, everyone trembled frantically, and a second later, a frigid silence blanketed the entire hall. The only exception was Master Tush, whose glazed eyes showed no hint of awareness—her mind clearly adrift in denial or madness.The others, however, felt their souls quake. The words “lock them away” echoed through their minds like a death knell.Panic was instantaneous.The two guards—the very same men who once stood tall under the family’s prestigious banner now trembled as if stripped bare under the weight of their betrayal.“S-Sir… Patriarch…” one of them stammered, his voice barely a whisper, but Sage Myron’s glare cut him down like a guillotine mid-sentence.“You… you two…” The old man’s voice was low, controlled, and brimming with suppressed fury. “You swore an oath to serve the Myron family when you became its guards—to protect its honor and its assets with your life. And yet, when entrusted with the care of my store manager,
Chapter 510 – Lock Them Away
*****Dozens of unspoken questions screamed in the six’s hearts, wondering who Xavier could be. But none of them dared to voice their thoughts aloud.Yet Xavier merely smiled faintly, shaking his head.“No, of course not,” he said, replying to Sage Myron’s question. “None of this is your fault. You’ve done nothing wrong—why would I blame you?”A breath of relief surged through Sage Myron, visibly easing the tension from his features.Still, he frowned as confusion returned to his face. “Then... why—?”Xavier turned his head slightly, his gaze drifting to the shattered walls and the wrecked furniture in the emporium.“I’ve already caused too much destruction in your store,” he said, gesturing toward the rubble.“Besides, it seems my presence has inadvertently sown discord… fractured relationships that were once solid.”The hall fell into stunned silence.His words echoed within the hearts of everyone present, stirring a deep and reluctant acknowledgment.Indeed, although Xav
Chapter 509 – Who The Hell Is He?!
*****The six elite guards who had just bowed in absolute reverence suddenly straightened—and their expressions, once emotionless, now twitched.Their jaws slackened slightly, and their eyes blinked, once, twice… staring at Sage Myron as though he had just committed the unthinkable.‘He bowed…? He… he actually bowed?!’Sage Myron, a man known for his pride, a respectful sage whose name made even city lords tread carefully, had just lowered his head.To such a young, nameless man at that.The six exchanged glances—sharp, unsettled, disoriented.And then their eyes shifted to Xavier.‘Who… is this man?’‘Why is everyone acting like this is normal?’‘Not even the patriarch of a first-rank family receives this kind of treatment from Sage Myron.’A silent chaos erupted in their minds, the carefully controlled aura they’d maintained shattering like glass.They searched Xavier’s face, his bearing, his clothes—anything to make sense of it.But Xavier remained utterly composed. Un
Chapter 508 – A Pitiful Master Tush II
*****After receiving her grandfather’s quiet command, Lyria gently exited the massive store like a breeze—graceful, silent, and nearly invisible.No one, save for Xavier, noticed her departure.The rest, on the other hand, remained frozen in place. It was as if the store itself had fallen under a spell.Their eyes remained glued to Master Tush, who sat slumped like a shattered monument on the ground, his eyes hollow and lifeless. Pity and disbelief warred on their faces, unable to reconcile how one man could suffer so much devastation in a single day.Just hours ago, he had strutted into this emporium bloated with pride, his head held high, oozing arrogance with every step. But now?Now, he looked like a man whose entire family had been slaughtered and his life’s savings and investments had burned to ashes before his eyes.His hands trembled faintly on his lap, not from fear, but from the sheer emptiness that now gnawed at his soul.Not only had he, in a fit of rage, accident
Chapter 507 – A Pitiful Master Tush
*****Master Tush turned to his wife, but the woman before him was no longer his wife.No, she no longer resembled the woman he had pledged his life to, the woman he had loved and adored so intensely that he wouldn’t hesitate to sacrifice all else for her.This woman was now a… stranger.No, worse—she was now a demon. A heartless, wretched witch, cloaked in human skin.He began to tremble frantically until suddenly, a strong, murderous aura exploded from him, sweeping through the room like a hurricane of malice.Several people flinched, instinctively stepping back. Even Madam Tush’s eyes widened for a split second.“Why?!” the overweight man bellowed.It was just one word. One single question. Yet it cut deeper than a thousand accusations.For the first time, Madam Tush’s eyes flickered with uncertainty. Had she gone too far?But then clarity returned, and she realized it was already too late for regret. Tush’s love for her had already perished after he realized she was chea
Chapter 506 – Madam Tush’s Revelations Against Her Husband
*****“He didn’t just steal inventory. No, this monster has been embezzling every coin he could all these years. He had sold priceless herbs in secret and never logged a single sale into your ledgers. And his dealings? They are shadier than a back-alley assassin. If there was ever a reason to execute someone on the spot, it’s him!”Every jaw dropped upon hearing Madam Tush’s vicious roar. Even the scoundrels who had remained smug up to this point flinched.Master Tush began to tremble violently. His knees buckled, and a cold sweat poured down his flabby face. His pulse roared in his ears, panic devouring him from within.He wanted to scream. He wanted to strike her down. He wanted to silence her before she ruined everything.But he couldn’t move.His limbs refused to obey. Instead, his breath caught in his throat, and he became paralyzed, both mentally and physically, caught in a living nightmare with no end in sight.Meanwhile, Madam Tush had fully descended into madness.Her
Chapter 505 – An Unexpected Change in Madam Tush
*****No one inside the herbal emporium could have foreseen the bombshell Master Tush had just dropped.Not the smug, iron-faced guards who already harbored knowledge of the truth but had chosen to stand silent. Not Vidor’s lackey, whose eyes had glimmered with schadenfreude from the moment he entered. Not the clueless, naive attendant who’d been used as a pawn. Not even Lyria, who, despite her intelligence, was genuinely caught off guard. And certainly not Sage Myron, whose venerable gaze narrowed with deep suspicion.But the ones who were the most unprepared... were Master Tush himself, and the venomous woman he called his wife.In one staggering moment, a truth was flung open like a trapdoor to hell.The revelation spread through the room like a detonation. Yet, not a single soul could speak for what felt like an eternity. Not a breath was drawn. And not a whisper escaped.The atmosphere inside the emporium turned dense and stifling, as though the very air itself had curdled
