Chapter 7867
Ruby remembered how Charlie had given her both endless hope and overwhelming despair the very first time they met.She had been convinced that Charlie was definitely dead after Coldie blew himself up. But the man had even had time to change clothes and hunt her down in a helicopter.At that moment, Ruby had genuinely thought Charlie wanted to kill her.And yet, instead of hurting her, he had taken good care of her. She would have been lying if she claimed her heart hadn't beat faster for such a handsome, charismatic man whose cultivation far surpassed that of his peers.Penny, too, had been mesmerized despite her cool demeanor when Charlie made over ten thousand armed cavalry guards and death soldiers vanish from one of the Qing Eliminating Society's bases.It was only natural to admire someone superior, much like how ordinary people idolized superheroes rather than everyday heroes.In Penny's case, she had been raised as a prodigy destined to change her family's fortunes. It was
Chapter 7866
The first thing Charlie did when he got off was take Vera's hand once again.He might have been concerned about doing so back in civilization, especially since he was over thirty while Vera looked barely eighteen. People might even suspect him of kidnapping.Here, however, Ruby and Penny knew Vera's true age and definitely wouldn't think that.What Charlie hadn't expected was that Vera looked nervous, while he felt completely at ease, even if he still had to tell Ruby and Penny about their relationship.Squeezing Charlie's hand, Vera asked nervously, "Won't they laugh at us? I mean... I'm a little old."Charlie suddenly realized what was bothering her.While he was worried about looking like a groomer, those who knew Vera's true age wouldn't be concerned about that. Vera, however, was somehow worried about the opposite.Charlie smiled and reassured her, "If you're that embarrassed about it, we can just act like nothing happened."Vera blushed as she considered it, then mustered
Chapter 7865
For cultivators like Charlie, a hundred years really wasn't much—just as it was for Vera.She was a wanderer for 400 years, as she was forced to run for her life across the world, but she was 500 years now—time to change how she lived.In fact, it felt like someone up there agreed that she had suffered too much over those 400 years, and decided to make things even for her remaining 100 years by setting her up with Charlie.She had been studious since before the Qing dynasty, and then exposed to the vicissitudes of life.But at her core, she was still a modest maiden born to olden tradition, and at a marriageable age for that era.As she confessed to Charlie, Charlie confessed to her in turn, which instantly sparked her intention to stay with him until the end.Her dainty fingers squeezing Charlie's hand, she spoke softly but surely, "If you don't mind having me, I will spend the rest of my life with you, even if it means not marrying. I'll be there no matter what happens, and wit
Chapter 7864
After a couple of laps, the onboard map beeped in warning, yanking Charlie out of his reverie.Vera noticed too, disappointment briefly showing in her eyes, just as she understood why they always said beauty was in the eye of the beholder.If time could pause at that moment forever, she would even feel that the universe was born for this very moment.But time doesn't stop, just as she understood that she was not the protagonist of the infinite universe—all she amounted to was insignificant dust. Charlie couldn't help feeling disappointment just then.He would never get proactive with any woman aside from Claire—even Nanako who was virtually tailor-made for him.But at that moment, he suddenly made a choice that he knew he would regret forever if he gave up.Suddenly stopping the snowmobile, he took Vera's hand firmly in his.At that very second, Vera's heart could leap out of her throat—even if she had been fleeing for her life for 400 years.Looking at Charlie, she was afrai
Chapter 7863
Charlie's heart was racing when he saw the look in Vera's eyes.It was a feeling different from Claire, Nanako, or any woman who got close to him.After all, only Vera knew everything about him, and vice versa—it was a feeling of mutual understanding that he wouldn't share with anyone else.And he would be lying if he said he wasn't interested in a woman this smart, charming, and resilient.In that fleeting moment, Charlie thought that if the day should come when he claimed vengeance and cultivation were no longer a concern, he could quietly retire to a pastoral life with Vera.With that, the remainder of his days would definitely be something more than lasting bliss—he could even call it destiny, for lack of a better word.After all, it felt like the only possible conclusion to this life and it was perfect, provided he didn't get killed beforehand.It was simply sublime in essence, a single droplet from a primordial ocean that evaporated and traveled across Earth to become a co
Chapter 7862
Frigid winds were kicking up ice crystals across the South Pole, as Charlie and Vera emerged from a portal onto the thick ice sheet.Despite just returning from midsummer in the US, neither of them appeared uncomfortable with the sudden drop of hundreds of degrees in temperature. The icy winds felt like a whip against their faces, as frost built up over their brows and eyelashes.Still, Vera was unfazed despite not being a cultivator.There were two months left in the Antarctic winter, and having just sent a few presents to Esteban Griffin, Charlie's return was a brief respite while he checked on Ruby and Penny. He intended to return to Oskia in a couple of days and set up base at the portal in Crane's Cry.Once he built a massive dome as planned, he would set off for the US again.Fortunately, traveling across the world was easy for him as he was now—a portal would suffice even for a trip to the US.The snowmobile they had used earlier was still sitting silently in the void pock

What about the greenhouse full of veggies?
I made two purchases by mistake. I thought the first one didn't go through but it did. After this runs out I will not purchase any more. I've already figured that I will not be at the end of the book, as mentioned it is on never ending. ...
Cheaper job there's
How long will this book go? I’ve gotten to the end of what had been written and I have paid so much money to read this. If this is a never ending story then that is just greed.
out of 5 stories 3 just stopped this and another has continued i think this is more GN fault than the Author at least putting it out daily but I said previous im not going to read this daily that way I can enjoy the story more to read than just short chapters 1 or 2 x a week and it will be a better
thats what I said, she treated him terrible until he started gifting her but she's undeserving..I love he and Claire were more affectionate
Elaine is so greedy. I missed reading yesterday so I felt like I got an appropriate amt to read, so now I decided I will try and hold off to 1x a week. then I could get in to the story better, than just fragments.
Pathetic as usual. I’m ready now to end my association with this thieving app. I’m not going to throw more of my hard earned money away on this pile of shit!
absolutely ridiculous... I will make damn sure I will not read another book from GN author. 9 minutes of reading 2 chapters per day? lazy bastard!!!
Elaine is such a greedy person! She hasn’t learned anything! Charlie should not give her a gold bar. Where is the rest of the book? Why can’t more be issued each day?
