Chapter 6842
It shocked Charlie to learn that Penny had reached the Transformation Realm at sixteen—it was likely that everyone in Ten Thousand Armies would be embarrassed if he told them.Porter Waldron was already supposedly a genius, but he had only reached the Dark Realm at twenty, and with Charlie's help, at that.If he had to cultivate on his own, reaching the Transformation Realm at forty would still be an extraordinary feat.However, Penny hadn't just reached the Dark Realm at sixteen—she had gained enlightenment when she was barely in her twenties! Even for Charlie, such raw talent and ability was something new entirely!He couldn't help but ask, "When you reached the Transformation Realm at sixteen… Were you being mentored, or was it just something you gained by chance?"Penny thought about it, but she soon shook her head. "Neither. All I had was this mental cultivation method, but it was the same one given to dead soldiers and armed cavalry guards of the Qing Eliminating Society."
Chapter 6841
Penny was silent for a moment and sighed, "Despite being a collateral family, our lineage basically only exists to produce breeding mares..."With that, she told Charlie about the history between the Singers and the Griffins.As it turned out, in order to keep the Qing Eliminating Society in the shadows, the Griffins had basically coerced their relatives into perpetuating their lineage—it was like nothing Charlie had ever known!Still, considering that an illustrious clan like the Griffins was cripplingly dependent on Fleur for survival while also having to keep the Qing Eliminating Society's important secrets under wraps, they really couldn't do much else aside from keeping their bloodline, even if it meant using people like tools.Furthermore, according to Penny, there were actually at least twenty collateral families like the Singers serving the Griffins, even as they flourished for centuries under Fleur's protection.Through those hundreds of years, with the dead soldiers and

Penny finally understood the situation at that point—Charlie far outclassed her, and even fleeing was delusional. While she couldn't understand how Charlie had fabricated a video of her in no time at all, she had a feeling that it would be taken for concrete evidence if it was ever released, and her family would be massacred in retaliation.As such, her only option was to do what Charlie asked and avoid bringing trouble to her family.Seeing that she was conceding, Charlie nodded and pocketed his phone. "Very well. But first of all, I have some questions. Tell me everything you know, and I won't get your family implicated, and I might even spare your life. Understand?"Penny nodded repeatedly, aggrieved yet submissive, "Yes, I understand..."Charlie asked, "What is your position in the Right Military Governor's Office? What do your duties include? And who do you report to?"Penny replied, "I'm one of the six Praetors working under the Right Military Governor's Office. While I do
Chapter 6839
In the video, Penny's office was exactly how it was arranged at the moment, and her face was contorted in rage as she snapped, "I won't rest until I kill Fleur Griffin or she kills me!"Everything from her facial expression, eye movement, and mannerisms was completely alike—even her voice was synthesized so perfectly through deep learning that even her parents wouldn't have been able to notice the difference.After all, the AI module had the capacity to serve over millions of people all at once, but all that processing power was now under Charlie's disposal alone. The synthesized pixels were naturally infinitely better than the usual AI processing normal civilians could access, and there wouldn't be any flaws even if someone zoomed in on it.Penny paled just watching the video, her legs shaking as she looked up at Charlie in disbelief and demanded, "W-What is this?! I never said such things!"Seeing her panicked reaction, Charlie chuckled. "It's a video synthesized with your facial
Chapter 6838
Penny really couldn't argue against that, and she immediately became furious and tense, seeing how Charlie completely dismissed her as a threat.Her tone was suddenly a lot less confident than earlier, and she was barely able to hide her nerves as she asked, "Then, what do you want from me?"Charlie shrugged. "Like I said, you're more useful to me alive, so you'd better start cooperating. Otherwise, I won't just kill you—I will fool Fleur into believing that you defected. Can't blame me if she massacres your family in retaliation."Penny gritted her teeth. "Never make things personal! Or were you never taught such basic honor?!"Charlie snorted. "'Never make things personal', you say? Look around you—the dead soldiers and the armed cavalry guards' families are right here in these mines with them! Or maybe you think the Qing Eliminating Society wasn't making it personal when they threatened their family's lives in exchange for their loyalty?"No. You're nothing short of an accompli
Chapter 6837
Smack!The slap seemed to resound in Penny's office, leaving a palm print over her forehead—an amusing image considering her haughty visage and fair skin.Seeing her wince in pain, Charlie shook his head and teased, "Oh, you really aren't the type to hold back, huh?"Penny was left gritting her teeth in pain, but she soon stared at her palm in disbelief as she realized she wasn't dead.On top of that, her palm was swelling—her fair, dainty palm was suddenly swollen like a pig's legs, although her fingers remained slender.Even as she remained utterly confused, she mused out loud, "What… How?! I used at least ten percent of my full strength. Why am I still alive?!"That was when she tried to direct her Reiki… and realized that every single meridian in her body was sealed.She couldn't muster her Reiki at all, meaning she was basically crippled!As she looked up at Charlie, her eyes were filled with shock. "Y-You sealed my cultivation?!""Yes," Charlie replied, nodding quietly.
