Curtis North nodded seriously and sat down cross-legged.As Adrian inserted the three silver needles, Curtis felt the energy inside him surge. The bottleneck that had held him back for so long gave way with a faint crack.He had broken through.“He really did it!” Lucas Bennett cried.The aura around Curtis changed completely. Unable to contain his newfound power, he released it in a sudden burst.Levi Nelson and the others were caught off guard and sent flying. They landed more than ten yards away before finally coming to a stop.The burst subsided, and Curtis opened his eyes. Two flashes of white light flickered across them.“I really broke through! Hahaha! Mr.Doyle, you’re incredible!”Adrian couldn’t help smiling at the old man’s excitement. “You were already right on the verge of a breakthrough. I just gave you a push. Normally, you can’t force it like this. Steady progress is what matters.”The others understood the warning and nodded solemnly.“We’re fortunate beyond words to f

At the center of the battlefield, Adrian blazed with golden light, as dazzling as a rising sun.A torrent of spiritual energy poured from him. The sky darkened, Big Mountain shook, and the crushing pressure made it hard to breathe.“Old man, let’s see you take this.”Adrian brought his palm down in a sweeping strike, shattering Curtis North’s attack. Then he slapped Curtis across the face.With a scream, Curtis flew into the air, unable to put up the slightest resistance.Before he could land, Adrian rushed after him and slapped him again.“Who the hell do you think you are, coveting what’s mine?”Curtis screamed. Another slap followed.“Threatening me, too? You think being on the Peak Rankings makes you special?”Smack!“I’ll beat you so bad your own mother won’t recognize you!”Smack!“Still feel like showing off? Still want to kill me?”What followed was a sight no one would forget.Curtis spent the whole time flying through the air while Adrian punched and kicked him from below. F

For most of them, seeing an alchemist refine pills with their own eyes would be a once-in-a-lifetime experience.Adrian took a pill furnace and the necessary herbs from his storage ring.Nathan Whitmore edged closer. "Mr.Doyle, is that a storage ring?""It is."An ordinary person could never hope to own one. That alone made the four sect leaders regard Adrian with even greater respect.Adrian had just finished arranging his ingredients when an angry shout came from the mountain nearby."Who dares disturb my meditation?"Everyone turned. The moment they recognized the thin, white-haired old man, their faces changed."It's Greenbrow Taoist—Curtis North! Of all the people we could run into!""He's notoriously ill-tempered. We've upset him, and he won't let this go.""Who's Curtis North?" Adrian asked. "Is he famous?"Levi Nelson lowered his voice. "Mr.Doyle, Greenbrow Taoist ranks fifteenth on the Peak Rankings. He's extremely powerful."Adrian scoffed. "He's only on the Peak Rankings. W

"Found you at last. Are these the sects that have been hunting you?"At the familiar voice, Levi Nelson and the other two nearly burst into tears. Relief came with a sting of guilt. Adrian had come to save them, and they'd doubted whether he would."Who are you?" Nathan Whitmore frowned. "This doesn't concern you, kid. Stay out of it if you know what's good for you."Ralph Gallagher laughed. "You wanted to know who we found that herb for? There he is—Mr. Grant!"Levi Nelson and Curtis Turner nodded.Adrian Hayes looked Adrian up and down, contempt plain on his dark face. "Him? He's about my son's age. You call him an expert? Are you blind? Kid, don't say we didn't give you a chance. Get lost, and we'll let you live."Curtis Turner sighed. "I'm warning you four: leave while you can. Mr.Doyle destroyed the entire Xavier temple by himself. Even together, you aren't a match for him. Why get yourselves killed?"The four leaders looked Adrian over again and scoffed."This kid? Is that suppo

"Something urgent came up. Daisy, go see my sister first. I'll catch up with you!"Adrian was already out the door."Wait!" Daisy hurried after him. "At least tell me what your sister likes! Give me something to work with!"But by the time she reached the hallway, he was gone.She stamped her foot. "Every time he comes back, something pulls him away. I can never get hold of him!"She took out her phone and called Tabitha Grant."Tabitha, do you have time to go shopping with me? Adrian's sister's birthday is tomorrow, and I have no idea what to get her."They agreed on a time. Daisy hung up, threw on her coat, and hurried out, setting work aside for the day.Downstairs, Adrian found Emptiness and Iris Lloyd chatting in the security office. Octavia was there too."I need to go somewhere. Want to come?""What for?" Emptiness asked at once. Of the three, he was the least able to sit still."It's urgent. I'll explain on the way. Right now, I need your help rescuing some people."They caugh

Daisy had no idea what Peterson Bright was really after, but she kept her tone polite."What kind of business did you want to discuss, Mr. Peterson?"Peterson Bright looked her over. "I hear Hill Group recently launched three cosmeceutical products that are selling extremely well. They're the reason your company has grown so quickly. I'm here to buy the formulas. Name your price. Hill Group may be doing well, but you can't compare with the Peterson family. You'd be better off letting us take those products further."Daisy's expression cooled. "Then you clearly haven't come to negotiate in good faith. Hill Group has no intention of selling those formulas. I'm afraid you'll leave disappointed."Peterson Bright frowned. He hadn't expected her to refuse. "Think carefully. The Peterson family could take those products nationwide—even worldwide—in no time. Could you do that? You might spend your whole life trying and never get there. Agree to sell, and you can name your price.""If that's a
