“Sounds interesting. All right, I’ll head over soon. I should get there this afternoon.”“Then I’ll be waiting for you in Seaport City!”After hanging up, Adrian turned to the three behind him. “Have you heard of the rare treasures trade fair?”Octavia wasn’t from Novaland Republic, so she shook her head. Emptiness and Iris Lloyd both nodded.“Of course,” Emptiness said. “It’s held once a year, but the time and place change. You just have to be lucky enough to hear about it. Plenty of people show up with treasures to trade, and most leave with something worthwhile. Is this year’s fair starting?”“Sebastian Simpson just called. He said it’s tonight and asked if I wanted to go.”Emptiness rubbed his hands together. “We have to go. They might have something I want.”“I’ll look for a good sword,” Iris Lloyd muttered, gazing mournfully at his ruined blade.“Then we’ll all go.”Adrian called Daisy to let her know his plans.“You know, I’m lucky if I see you three days out of the month,” she

Fletcher Lloyd nodded. “old Shaw, make sure you handle this properly. I don’t care how you do it—keep that old woman quiet. We can’t let this damage the company’s reputation. Understood?”old Shaw bowed eagerly. “Don’t worry, boss. I know what to do. She won’t say a word!”He gave another bow and went to leave. But the moment he opened the office door, a kick sent him sprawling. He groaned in pain.Fletcher Lloyd’s eyes snapped open. “Who dares come into my company and cause trouble? Mr.Doyle! What an unexpected pleasure!”His expression changed so fast it was almost comical, but inside, he was panicking. What had brought this menace to his door? He still remembered what had happened to the charity association. The last thing he wanted was any trouble with Adrian.Adrian strode into the office, his face cold.“Your company built the children’s orphanage, didn’t it? You had the nerve to cut corners on a building full of children. Do their lives mean nothing to you? How can you take tha

Daisy frowned at the news report. “How does a club that big make such a basic mistake? Shoddy construction is everywhere these days. I should organize a full safety inspection at the company when I get the chance.”Emptiness spat out his soup.Daisy turned to him. “What’s wrong, Emptiness? You guys didn’t have anything to do with what happened at Kingdom Club, did you?”Under the table, Iris Lloyd gave Emptiness a hard kick. His expression didn’t change. “Of course not, Daisy. We’re law-abiding citizens. Why would we do something like that?”Emptiness coughed, his face bright red. He couldn’t get a word out.Daisy’s suspicion deepened. “You’re acting strange. You really were involved, weren’t you?”Adrian was still trying to think of an explanation when his phone rang.It was Tabitha Grant. The moment he answered, he heard the tears in her voice.“Adrian, please come! You have to save the children!”Adrian frowned. “What happened? Where are you? I’m on my way.”He hung up, and Daisy i

“Once we’re inside, check their arms. Anyone with the character 肖 tattooed on them dies.”The files old Wallace had sent Adrian were clear: nearly everyone working for Abel Brooks had a tattoo on their arm. That would make things easier.Emptiness and the other two acknowledged the order and headed for the entrance with him.The guards frowned as the four young men approached. “Stop right there! This is a place for people with money, not somewhere any stray off the street can wander into. Get lost!”The four of them reeked of blood and carried themselves like men ready to kill. Their clothes were spattered with it, too. They were clearly here for trouble.Adrian saw the tattoos on the guards’ arms. His eyes narrowed. “Kill them.”“With pleasure!” Emptiness said.Before he could move, a sharp gust swept past him.Iris Lloyd had already sheathed his sword.The guards clutched their throats and fell dead.“Iris Lloyd! It’s bad enough you never say a word. Couldn’t you let Lord Buddha sho

The buzz-cut man’s blood-red blade flashed, its killing intent bearing down on Adrian. Beside him, the ugly man swung a massive fist at Adrian’s head.Their timing was perfect. They had clearly fought together many times.Adrian waited until they were almost upon him. Then he threw a punch.Powerful spiritual energy erupted from his fist and surged toward them with crushing force.A warning flared through both men. They wanted to dodge, but gritted their teeth and pressed on. The buzz-cut man had reached the peak of Mythical Tier, and his partner was at mid-Mythical Tier. Surely the two of them could handle Adrian.Boom!The impact shook the alley. Adrian’s power tore through their attacks and slammed into them.Both men flew backward. By the time they hit the ground, their attacking arms were ruined—twisted out of shape, with bone jutting through the skin and blood dripping onto the pavement. Agony left them drenched in cold sweat.Now they understood. They were no match for Adrian,

“Mr. Grant, that’s a separate matter. You treated so many of my people before, and now you’ve healed my granddaughter. Please accept the money.”Adrian hesitated, then took the black card.The two Petersons watched in envy. Just like that, he’d made 1.2 billion. Money had never looked so damn easy to earn.After chatting with Adrian for a while, James turned to them, his expression darkening. “Why are you still here? Are you waiting for me to hold you responsible? Get out!”They slunk away, but not before shooting Adrian a vicious glare. They wouldn’t forget this.To thank him, James invited Adrian and the others to dinner.At the table, James said, “Mr.Doyle, I hear your fiancée runs a company in the cosmeceutical industry. We can help her enter the European market whenever she’s ready.”Adrian smiled. “You can discuss that with her directly. I’ll give you her number.”Jones nodded.Nearby, Emptiness spoke quietly to the others. “Adrian’s done it again. He just opened up the European
