"Master, what's happening— " Frida gasped."Nice try, but you can't fool me. You stick out like a sore thumb," Seth said, his voice cold.However, Frida's confusion only grew. "Master, I don't... What do you mean?""Still playing innocent? You're not fooling anyone, little fox."As Frida's last word echoed, her face twisted in a wild transformation. Four massive, bushy tails sprouted from her back and whipped furiously at Seth. He casually pressed a hand against the couch and floated back, easily sidestepping her wild strikes. The room shook with a chilling, otherworldly energy as Frida's hands morphed into razor-sharp claws. She shot an icy glare. "How did you know?" she said with a hiss. Seth chuckled. "Easy, you reek. I'm really wondering how you fooled me earlier. You either have some magic charm that hides your aura, or you have a split personality. You're Frida by day, mystery troublemaker by night." She stayed silent, but her expression, however, told Seth he had hit
Seth's smile was genuine as he thought about the joys of being young.He seemed to forget, however, that he himself had only just turned 20.The adventures he had been through were more epic than what most people could dream of in a lifetime.After freshening up, Seth worked his magic to alter their looks, and they hit the streets for a walk.The puppet was taken to a remote spot, and the city had been left far behind.It was all desert out here, a wasteland as far as the eye could see.A few miles out, there was a secret base. It was locked down tight with soldiers on every corner.Inside, a bunch of guys with serious faces were glued to their monitors.They were tracking the puppet's ride and every move it made.The big boss of the joint, with a voice like thunder, asked, "Are we good to go?"The tech crew nodded back at him."Target's in our sights.""Missiles one, two, and five are locked and loaded."The boss' eyes were cold and deadly as he growled, "I'm going to blo
Seth and the two girls settled into a diner and ordered some pastries and beverages.The girls were over the moon, whispering and giggling.Seth was not trying to listen in. However, with his superhuman hearing, he could not help but catch every word they said."What do you think of Seth?""He's awesome. Meeting him is like winning the jackpot or something.""Hey, when you're all grown up, do you think you might want to be his girlfriend?""Whoa, where's this coming from all of a sudden?""Just tell me if you like him or not.""I totally do. But I'm not really good at anything. He probably wouldn't give me a second look.""Don't be silly, you're super cute, and besides..."...Seth could not help but chuckle and shake his head as he took a sip of his drink.Right then, the shop's screen flashed with a breaking news alert.It was all about Seth's supposed 'defeat'.Those troublemakers were even spreading lies that Seth had cheated by using banned substances during the figh
Under his relentless interrogation, the locations of Brevia's most prestigious sects were revealed. The country was not big, no larger than five Imperial Cities put together. By ten that night, Seth's mission was complete. Every top-tier warrior was out of commission, their secret scriptures reduced to ashes. The strength of Brevia had crumbled, and it was all because of Seth.The news hit the martial arts community hard.…Brevia's nightlife was alive and kicking.Seth was relaxed as his mission here was pretty much done. He had gotten his revenge, and it was about time to head back.He was not a fan of this place."Huh?"Suddenly, Seth looked up and spotted something in the distance.A guy and a woman stepped out of a car and strutted into a swanky club.Seth took one look at them and knew they were trouble. Their auras were off the charts. They were not ordinary people at all."By the looks of them, they're from the Warbear Empire, and I bet they're genetic warriors."W
Seth deliberately asked, "Why should I follow you to touch up your makeup? Also, why should I go to the women's restroom with you?"The woman cast a charming glance at him and said, "It’s because I’m scared, duh. What if there's a ghost or something inside? Be my bodyguard and I’ll reward you!"Seth feigned an infatuated expression. "What kind of reward?""You'll find out when you get there."After saying that, the woman grabbed Seth's collar and headed toward the women's restroom. Along the way, they encountered several men, all with envious expressions on their faces.They were familiar with this plot. The place had been reserved, so there were not many people around. There was no one in the women's restroom. Once inside, the seductive and sexy woman pressed Seth against the sink. She lifted his chin with one hand, her eyes reflecting her domineering intent."Do you want to experience the most wonderful thing in the world?"Seth's eyes flickered with a hint of mischief. "Wha
Seth smiled. "You’ll know when the time is right."The woman was itching with curiosity, wondering where an influential figure like Seth had emerged from. Since Seth was refraining from revealing his identity, however, she also pried no further. The two of them left one after another. Unfortunately, they ran into a few more people just as they exited, including two women. Upon seeing them, they brightened up and immediately approached."Hey handsome, are you interested in having some fun with us?""You have a nice aura, handsome. If you hang out with us in the future, we'll treat you well.""Get lost!"The woman bared her fangs, putting up a fierce appearance. The two women who were trying to flirt with Seth were startled and quickly backed away. The woman then retracted her fangs and adopted a respectful posture once more. "This way, sir."Seth calmly said, "Relax a little. We don’t want to arouse suspicion.""Yes, sir.""What's your name?""My name is Candy."Under Candy'
It was the Shadow Thunder Talisman! It was a highly prized item, even back in ancient times, that would get many cultivators talking. Unlike disposable talismans, this one could be reused. Moreover, when put outside during rain, it could also attract lightning from the sky and seal it within.Most cultivators feared thunder and lightning. Having such a talisman would keep people away. Seth had to get his hands on the talisman.Several others in the audience were interested in it as well, but each bid only increased by 10,000 at a time. Currently, the exchange rate between the currencies of the Warhawk Empire and Longford was one to 3.5.Seth immediately bid 500 grand, earning multiple glances at him before they were averted. Since the talisman’s function was unknown, few were willing to participate now that it was going at such a high price.Cash called out three times consecutively for further bidders, but there was none. With that, he handed the talisman to Seth. Cash did not h
Seth pretended not to have seen it.It was a high bid, and not everyone was as rich as Seth. He had far exceeded the majority’s spending power. In the end, the precious gem also became Seth’s. Cady’s expression when she looked at Seth changed slightly. She thought about kneeling and begging him to see if he was willing to buy something for her. She did not dare go through with it, however, in case she angered him and things got difficult. The fourth person went up. It was a man with hair like steel needles all over his body. He was holding a crystal pendant in his hand, but there were several cracks on it.“I don’t know what this thing is called either, but it has a soothing effect. Wearing it during practice will prevent any irritability from forming. If it isn't because I'm short of money recently, I wouldn't be selling it. The starting price is 50 million.”This got many excited. It was common knowledge that the likelihood of negative emotions experienced while cultivating
