CHAPTER 265
Morning light filtered softly through the city streets as Jeffery Flamel walked with calm, measured steps. His aura, though subdued compared to the storm of the previous night, radiated quiet strength and authority. He had finally won, emerging victorious in the battle of wits. Today, there was one final matter to settle before he could fully move forward.Cora, his ex wife was still out there. He didn't know what she was planning this time. He didn't even care. All he wanted to do was stop her from descending into more schemes like her husband, Aadam. She was now also a fugitive and it was only a matter of time before the police would come after her. He had to make her a changed person.And though he had lived with her, knowing fully well that she can never change, he still held hope that she would. After all, she had lost everything. It would be meaningless still seeking revenge against him. If anyone should seek revenge, it should be him. But he was all done with that for a long pe
CHAPTER 264
The city's air was electric as the exposé on Aadam Prescott spread like wildfire. News channels, social media, and public voradcasts displayed damning evidence: his experiments, corruption, murders, schemes and manipulations.Within the Prescott family's mansion, Evelyn watched in shock with her two brother-in-laws. Their expressions were that of disbelief, faces pale and eyes wide."I can't believe this..." Evelyn Prescott stuttered. "He... he was the one who murdered my husband and son! He... he was the one!"They could see it all from the news. Aadam had killed Mr. Harold Prescott and Bob Prescott. And then he had come to them, lying to them that it was Jeffery who had done it. And everyone had sided with him, turning against the victim, Jeffery Flamel.But now the truth was out. Every member of the Prescott family now knew what had really happened. And now that they knew the truth, the hatred which they had for Jeffery was redirected to Aadam."I'm going to find you wherever you a
CHAPTER 263
Jeffery moved swiftly, heading out of the factory. Jane and Stacy were already waiting for him when he got there. Although they had seen how powerful he had become earlier, they were still worried. They couldn't help but fear that Serah would defeat him.But when they saw him, their jaws dropped in awe. It hadn't been even up to five minutes when he told them to leave the factory. And now he was out of it."Is she... dead?" Stacy asked."Yes," Jeffery replied. His Qi still radiated like a storm contained within his body, though now it was calm, controlled and protective.He hovered above the ground for a moment, surveying their injuries. Jane's clothes were torn, her face streaked with blood and dirt. Stacy on the other hand shivered, her hands raw from being bound.Outside, the night air felt like a cold balm. Jeffery propelled them forward, drifting across streets and alleys with divine speed, leaving the abandoned factory far behind. The city lights flickered in the distance a she
CHAPTER 262
"How?" Serah asked. "How did you survive?"Jeffery didn't respond quickly. Instead he took slow strides toward her, arms behind him. His pose was dominant and confidant, as if there was nothing in the world that could stop him.She instantly felt threatened by his pose. She could feel the aura radiating off him. It was crushing, causing her to shiver. Her feet buckled as she staggered backward.Don't tell me, she thought. Don't tell me he has advanced!She narrowed her eyes in shock. Jeffery had being a master level alchemist a few moments ago. How was he then a grandmaster right now? It made no sense!"You..." She grit her teeth. "You've advanced, haven't you?"Jeffery smiled. "That's right. I wouldn't have been able to arrive here by being just a master. You asked the right question."Serah clenched her fists, her worst nightmare becoming reality. It was the Philosopher's Stone. It had to be. She had much underestimated the stone that she hadn't bothered to take it away from Jeffery
CHAPTER 261
Jeffery Flamel drifted through the streets in a blur. His movement was swift and unrestricted, defying gravity. He was moving even faster than the wind, something he wouldn't have been able to achieve as a master. If he had been extraordinarily fast in the past, now he was divinely so.He continued to follow the Qi signatures of Jane and Stacy till he arrived at a part of the city. There, on the asphalt road, was the black car Jane had arrived in. It was badly damaged, standing beside a streetlight which had already crumbled badly.He frowned when he saw this, "Cora caught up with them. They were captured by those men."He didn't need anyone to tell him what had happened. And if Jane and Stacy had been captured, then they were in grave danger this time. Aadam would want to have his hands on the evidence. And just like he knew the man, he was fully aware that the man wouldn't destroy the evidence. Instead, he would find a way to twist it.He couldn't allow the evidence to fall into the
CHAPTER 260
Jeffery slowly opened his eyes, feeling the heat of the flames of his skin again. The excruciating pain in his soul and meridians was still there. But there was something different this time. He was no longer hopeless. He had realized that there was light at the end of the tunnel.He closed his eyes, concentrating despite the agonizing pain. The footsteps and voices of the cops were getting closer, but he didn't care. He didn't care about anything in the world right now. He had cleared his mind of anything that would affect his concentration."Right now," Lukas' voices echoed within his mind, "you want to live... you want to save everything that matters to you. But you still fear pain. You want salvation... but you cling to the Stone. You want control... but you refuse responsibility."This is it, he thought calmly. This is the key to everything. The key to ending it all...Suddenly something cracked somewhere. It seemed distant but the echoes around him suggested otherwise. It didn't
