"Young man, you have a tenacious life. I'm amazed." The doctor smiled before Eric could say anything.
"Well, that's because I have a gorgeous and skilled nurse treating me, or else, I wouldn't have been able to wake up so quickly." Eric grinned.The doctor blushed at Eric's remark, shaking her, she said,"Well, you shouldn't compliment me, I'm amazed that you woke up so quickly.""Well, it's all thanks to you. Besides, I wouldn't be able to die even if I wanted to because I have a stunning doctor by my side.""No you really shouldn't thank me, it's a medical miracle." The doctor smiled and shook her head."Well, I was told there was nothing like miracles, but you just performed one on me today. Or else, how would I have woken up to your beautiful face."The doctor's face turned red hearing what Eric said. Though this guy in front of her had a glib tongue, he was such a sweet talker and she had no words to refute his words."But you should know that your bones and tendons were broken because of the accident. We estimated that you'll not be able to survive." The doctor shook her head and continued."I'm still in awe of how you survived it.""Well, I did die, but when Hades saw me, he said I was more handsome than him and he couldn't tolerate someone being more handsome than him, so he sent me back," Eric said seriously."Pfft!"The doctor couldn't help but burst into laughter upon hearing Eric's words. The latter was just able to say such things with a serious expression."Besides, it was worth it, as I woke up to your beautiful face. I'm really lucky, you know." Eric continued."You know there's a saying that, waking up to a beautiful face is the sign of good luck. Guess, I'm in luck today."The doctor blushed hard at Eric's words but didn't say anything. She couldn't find the right words to say."I..."Just then, the door of the ward swung open, and a rather average-looking man walked into the ward holding a bouquet in his hands as he walked towards the doctor with a smile on his face.The clothes he was wearing were rather expensive, and he had a heavy perfume that immediately filled the whole ward when he walked in making Eric scrunch up his nose in displeasure."Katie, I've been entrapped by your beauty since the first day I met you, please accept this as a token of my love." The man smiled sweetly, stretching the bouquet forward."Mark, I told you I'm not interested, yet you keep on disturbing me. Do you want me to call the police on you?" Katie's expression darkened as she said coldly.This was not the first time Mark had come to pester her. She was irritated by him. He was just a rich spoiled young master who had a promiscuous lifestyle, she didn't want to have anything to do with him."Katie, even if you reject me a hundred times. I'll continue trying. I love you and I'll give you all that you want." The young man smiled as he said rather calmly as though he didn't hear Katie's threat."Besides, do you think I'm not good enough for you?""I told you several times that I have a boyfriend already, why do you keep pestering me?" Katie snorted coldly.Mark's mouth curled up into a smirk hearing Katie's reply. He was sure that she didn't have a boyfriend, she had just said that to make him go away, but he was not ready. He had to make sure to get her onto his bed first, or else he wouldn't be satisfied.With a wave of his hands, many girls would be willing to climb onto his bed, yet, she was turning him down, who the hell did she think she was?"You keep saying you have a boyfriend, yet I have never seen him. Do you think I'm a child who would be easily fooled?" Mark sneered."Fine then, that's my boyfriend," Katie said angrily pointing at Eric who was watching the drama.Huh?Eric froze seeing Katie point at him. When did he become her boyfriend? Did the beautiful doctor know what she was saying?"Hehehehe!"Mark suddenly burst out into laughter hearing what Katie said, he looked at Eric who was sitting up on the bed then turned to look at Katie. Though the latter was more handsome than him, he could tell that the two had no relationship whatsoever."Is that so?" Mark raised his brows looking at Katie."Are you sure that loser is your boyfriend?" Mark sneered."That's none of your business if he's my boyfriend or not. Now that you've seen my boyfriend, you should leave." Katie said, in a rather not polite manner."Do you think I'm a fool? How's that loser your boyfriend? Or do you think you can play with my senses that easily?" Mark sneered."Fine, since you don't believe," Katie said angrily and walked up to Eric who was still watching the scene with a dumbfounded expression, and directly kissed the latter.[Ding: Mission completed]The system's mechanical voice rang out in Eric's"Host can receive rewards." The system continued."Remarks: The Host's flirting skills are below average and the mission was only completed based on luck. Besides, the host now has successfully acquired one love rival. How would he be able to deal with it since he's as weak as a chicken? He'd better look for ways to improve himself.""Note: System's impression of the host has dropped even further."Eric's face twitched seeing the system's remark. What kind of system did he acquire? It would diss him at any given chance.But then he couldn't care less about it at the moment, he had to focus on the kids and enjoy it, he couldn't lose out since he was being taken advantage of.Mark's expression changed upon seeing the scene, anger rose in him as his chest heaved heavily.After a while, Katie disengaged from the kiss and turned to look at Mark whose expression was rather ashen."Now, do you believe?" She sneered."You..." Mark gritted his teeth as he pointed at Katie before walking out of the ward."I'm sorry, Mr. Eric, I had no other options." Katie turned around and blushed, apologizing to Eric."There's no need to apologize. I don't mind losing five years of my life span because of that kiss." Eric grinned."I'll happily go back to Hades and force him to accept me I'm not worthy to receive a kiss from a beauty.""I'll go get your discharge papers ready." Katie's face turned red in embarrassment as she hurried out of the ward.Latest Chapter
422:Bargain
The old man fell silent for a moment. He didn't know how confident Eric was in making the storage ring, what if he failed? Wouldn't that mean a loss?Though the most expensive part of the storage ring was the ore, and they had a mine of it, it didn't mean he was willing to waste it.Besides, the amount of ore needed was enough to feed the whole clan for at least three months of sold, so he was quite configured."How sure are you that you'll be able to make the storage ring?" The old man asked after a while, his doubts speaking louder than his words."A hundred percent.""Huh?" The old man froze hearing Eric's answer, not believing his ears. Could the young man before him be really that confident in making it?"You don't need to be confused, I'll compensate you if I happen to fail," Eric broke the silence, feeling rather impatient.He wanted to get the ores he needed and leave. There were still a whole lot of things he needed, there was no way he was going to waste time here. That was

"Yesss, it's quite refreshing," Eric nodded, and actively inhaled more of the fragrance."Are you sure about that young man?" The old man raised his brows, staring at Eric, his mouth curled up into a smirk."Yes, absolutely," Eric agreed, then moved closer to the table, preparing to sit."Or do you think such puny poison would have an effect on me?" He inquired, taking his seat right before the old man.The old man's smile vanished hearing this, his gaze suddenly became sharper as he stared at Eric."You didn't think I'll be foolish enough to fall for that, do you?" Eric raised his brows, staring at the old man wondering what he had taken him for.Even if he was clueless about the poison, the system wouldn't have allowed it to take place in his body and would have alerted him the moment he stepped into the courtyard.Not to talk of, he had randomly once bought the skill to be able to detect and make poison.To be safe, it was best to say no one knew poisons more than him. He had origi
420:Poison
The moment he stepped into the gate, Eric's aura surged, and the twins were covered by Eric's immortal Qi.The twins gaped as it felt like they had stepped into another world, but the next second, the illusion broke, and they realized they were still inside the gate, at the same spot Eric had thrown them in, the only thing was they were floating.Without warning, Eric stretched out his hands and made a grabbing motion mid-air, grabbing something, and with a snap, it was as if whatever he had grabbed hold of was broke.Next, the ground shook, and before the twins could blink, the scenery before them changed as they found themselves in what almost looked like another city, or rather, estate.A gentle force guided them as they landed gently.After landing, the twins' gaze wandered, wondering where they were. It looked like they were not within Oaklade anymore as the houses here didn't look like it.Not to mention that, there were many strange buildings around and the Qi in the atmosphere
419:The Array At The Gate
(The Next Day)"So did you get any tabs on the man?" Eric asked, staring at the twins who didn't seem to be interested in the food before them."Sir, we were unable to find anything, it's as though he never existed," Alex answered after a while, a hint of frustration could be heard in his voice.Though they had followed Eric's instructions, at the same time, even if they had dug deeper, they wouldn't have been able to find anything.But that would risk alerting the other party and according to Eric, there was no need to go that far. So they had no other choice but to stop halfway."Eat up, we've got a lot to do today," Eric glanced at the two, cleaning his mouth with a tissue as he was done eating.The twins were not hungry, after all, they had reached a level in their Cultivation where they wouldn't feel hungry for months.But Eric was far different, he was still eating. It wasn't as though he was hungry, but according to him, there was no way he would stop eating.Half an hour later
418:Pricy Pill
Inside the elevator, the twins glanced at Eric, waiting for him to say something.After the reveal, they were sure he must have something to say."The Ladeson family is more low-key than I thought," Eric chuckled, breaking the silence, an evil smile spreading across his face.If the top families of Oakdale could join hands just to eliminate another top family, this must mean the influence and power of the Ladeson family was far more than he had thought."Trace the driver who brought us here," Eric broke the silence as he stepped out the elevator."Investigate everything about him, I want to know why he's so scared of the Ladeson family," Eric continued, walking towards the door of his room."If by chance you encounter any problems, or obstacles and you think it might be caused by the Ladeson family, then you should withdraw, " Eric added after thinking for a while."We would be visiting the family's residence tomorrow anyway, so don't get yourself or your men in trouble," He instructe
417:Ladeson Family
(Five Hours Later)Eric, alongside the twins, stepped out of the airport. The journey to Oakdale was a full five hours and Eric couldn't believe it was that far.Though he would have just avoided traveling and got there in less than a second, because he had a much grandeur plan, he could only endure the stress.Ever since Eric discovered void travelling, using normal means of transportation felt rather exhausting to him."Gentlemen, where might you be going? At your service," A Middle aged man approached the three saying as he stopped before them."Take us to the Ladeson family Villa," Eric said, his mouth curling into smirk while watching the man's expression change from a smile to shock, then into terror."The...the Ladeson.... Family...." The man stuttered, his eyes opening wide, stepping back, body shaking as though he had seen a ghost."Sorry, I meant you should take us to the nearest hotel," Eric changed what he said, at the same time, sending a strand of his Qi into the man's b
