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

With the attempted murder of the Acker family lead Charlie Wade to find the murderers of his parents. I hope so
the long adverts and in between read adverts are irritating. the story is getting too complex and this is making the zeal to keep reading die

The Author is Charlie wade, that's a big conspiracy, he will do as he pleased. Never care about the reader's opinion.
this book wasnt written by whoevers posting on this app. they are changing names of characters. you can find the book online
I agree with you. The chances of me purchasing another book from GoodNovel is pretty much ZERO%. Why would anyone want to be led on like this? I’ve spent Hundreds and hundreds of dollars on audiobooks through IBooks and I’ve never experienced anything like this. Ridiculous!!!!!
it's probably because they are writing it on the go
I would never start another book on this site. I would not have started this book if I had known I thought it was a full book.
I think they are making up chapters on the go.. ...
Yep I saw that. Just gets a bit frustrating.
I’m not sure they posted the full chapter today. It dropped off in the middle of saying something, and the number of comments isn’t listed.
I would like more than 2 chapters but am curious is it so we can read something daily? but I prefer to read the book, then I can read another..1 was like this daily and short then wasn't updating. but bad part jumbled a quick end..it was senseless.
I will be glad to unravel the mystery behind Charlie's parents and the Acker family..I suspect they must have uncovered or invented something..??? I don't know..I wished Charlie would come out of the shadows..already plenty do know his identity..I just hope Clair isn't left out in the cold..over Qui
Please post the remaining chapters… this is becoming a bit much and though you have received quite a bit of my money… you will lose further gains if you continue to nickel and dime the chapters. Just freaking finish it already.
4 pages of a chapter? And we drop off in the middle of a conversation, maybe even in between quotation marks? Did someone forget to post some pages?
I’ve been classifying it as fantasy when I describe it to people.
I have a suspicion the entire book isn’t written.
2 chapters a day is really a load of crap man. 4 pages per chapter really isn’t a chapter at all. Can you please just post the entire book instead of just giving mere 2 chapters in a day. This is ridiculous! Anyone can just finish 2 chapters while washing dishes or cleaning their toilets ......
This story is more than fiction....money flows by billions.At least, it should be closer to reality even just a pinch.How about giving us the rests of the book.Anyways, you will still charge us as we go on reading.This is not suspenseful at all.This is treating your readers like beginners....
Post the remaining chapters, then charge the reader’s accordingly.
You’re making recommendations for your other books, but why would I read another book, when I can’t even complete this one? Seriously!!!
What a crock of crap! How can you end in the middle of a paragraph? Mr author, you don’t have to be a Stupid Idiot Crook. At least end with a complete chapter. We understand that you’re just a mediocre writer at best, but really?
4 pages can’t be considered to be a chapter. Mr author, stop being a jerk and a lazy bum and drop this greedy silliness. We’re not folks and neither are we kids to be treated with such impunity. Nonsense
