The helicopter flew into the most top-tier villa district in the country.
On this lofty mountain stand twenty luxurious villas in a scattered pattern. The higher the location of the villa, the more exalted and unfathomable the owner's status. There are even rumors that the owner of the No.1 villa at the mountaintop is Blackwood Family, the most powerful family in the world! And Kai? The helicopter soared over the entire mountain and brought him to the No.1 villa. He was utterly astounded! The scene before his eyes was something he'd only seen in movies! A sprawling estate stretching as far as the eye could see, with fountains, sculptures, a swimming pool, and rows of sharply dressed men standing at attention. Was he about to shoot the next 007 sequel? Then a middle-aged man emerged, pushing a wheelchair forward. In one synchronized motion, the men in black bowed, and shouted. "Hello, Master.” The old man in the wheelchair raised his hand in a gesture, his gaze lingering on Kai, enigmatic and inscrutable. "I'm Atlas Blackwood, founder of Orion Global" He paused, as if weighing how to frame his next words. "And your grandfather." Kai was struck dumb. For a fleeting second, he thought his ears had deceived him. How could Atlas Blackwood, that most formidable figure, assert that he, a mere nobody, was his grandson? That is crazy! The Blackwood Family owns the world! Their business empire spans nearly 80% of the countries on Earth! Even in the most remote island nations, people have heard of the might of Orion Group and used their products! “This has to be a mistake”, Kai’s voice lowered, “I’ve always been just Kai, not Mr. Blackwood.” "Give it to him", Atlas Blackwood ordered. A man in a sharp suit stepped forward respectfully and handed him an envelope with both hands. “Sir, this is the test result.” And the Paternity Test Result: 99.99% Match. Atlas Blackwood was his grandfather! After his mother died, after his girlfriend dumped him—now he suddenly had a goddamn billionaire grandfather! Was this a dream? Some end-level reward from a twisted game? Kai was stunned, mind blown, unable to believe a damn thing. “Kai, I owe you an apology.” Atlas continued. “You and your mother suffered because of my mistakes. I failed to protect you two. I failed your mother” Kai stiffened. He never imagined that the life he had lived was nothing but a nightmare—a nightmare caused by someone's negligence. And that someone else turned out to be his grandfather, his only remaining kin. Kai felt his stomach twist. “Why now?” Kai's voice came out hollow. “Because we finally found you.” Atlas said. And he suddenly exhaled “I must apologize too, for all you’ve been through. As your grandfather, I’ll do anything to make it up to you.” The entire room fell silent. “That is why I’ve made a decision.” His gaze locked onto Kai’s. “From today onward, all my enterprises and properties in Dominus City will be transferred under your name.” A murmur rippled through the gathered elites. Kai’s mind reeled. He had gone from a man struggling for survival to inheriting a fortune that could shift the tides of an entire economy. A fortune beyond his imagination. And this was just the start? “Three days later, there will be a promotion dinner held in your honor . You will be officially introduced to the world.” Atlas continued. After saying that, he waved his hand. A man stepped forward. A well known man. Thane Jackson. One of Atlas’s most trusted subordinates. Thane extended a sleek black card to him with both hands. “This is an unlimited black credit card.” Atlas continued, “It has no spending limit and holds a deposit beyond calculation. But more than that...it allows you access to any high-end establishment in the world, unrestricted.” Kai took the card and let out a bitter laugh. "Already worth more than my pathetic old life." His entire life, he had struggled to afford basic survival. Now, in his hand, he held more power than most men could ever dream of. “There’s something else,” Atlas added. “Our family possesses a special inheritance-Spiritual power.” “It is rare...ancient. And only those of our bloodline can possess it.” "Awakening spiritual power grants endless energy, but," Atlas paused, his voice sharp, "if uncontrolled, it can tear you apart." Kai’s heart skipped a beat. His mind raced. The power he had felt earlier. That suddenly emerging power. Those rapidly healing wounds. Was this what they meant? Atlas nodded, as if reading his thoughts. “That’s how we found you, Kai. Your power surfaced...and I could feel it.” Kai’s pulse pounded in his ears. Atlas exhaled. “But to control it, you need a special heirloom. A piece that has been passed down through generations.” "Priceless, just one shard of its diamond is worth more than ten entire cities like Dominus City." His eyes locked onto Kai’s. “Where is it?” Kai froze, suddenly remembering the necklace. The one his mother had left him, the one he wanted to give to Astrid. He held his breath—it was still at Astrid's house!Latest Chapter
617: A Place That Could Change the World
Soon, the entire group arrived at the crystal grounds again, and the moment they stepped into the area, the newcomers immediately felt the strange atmosphere surrounding the place. The Qi here was different from outside, denser and far purer, yet hidden beneath that purity was something dangerous and sharp enough to make even experienced cultivators instinctively cautious.Kai stood at the front quietly, staring at the empty land where the formation rested hidden beneath the surface, but instead of satisfaction, a faint frown slowly appeared on his face.Abigail noticed almost immediately.She stepped closer slightly and lowered her voice. “What’s wrong?”Kai crossed his arms, still staring ahead. “The place feels small.”Abigail blinked.“Small?”Kai nodded seriously. “Too small. If more sects start coming over later, this place won’t be enough for everyone. Maybe I should ask Zora to expand the area.”The moment those words left his mouth, Abigail almost burst into laughter right t
616: Warnings
They didn’t drag things out.Once the decision was made, Kai stood up first, dusting his hands lightly as if he had just finished a minor task instead of restructuring the entire power balance of the area. Abigail and Emily followed without needing to be told, and the others naturally trailed behind, all eyes shifting toward the corner where the five old men still sat tied up like badly packed goods.The moment the group approached, the old men stiffened slightly.Not out of defiance but caution because they didn’t know what was coming next.Kai stopped in front of them, looking down with a neutral expression, then tilted his head slightly. “Comfortable?”No one answered.Good.He nodded once like that silence confirmed something, then gestured lazily toward Emily. “Release them.”Emily didn’t move immediately. Instead, she stepped forward slowly, her gaze calm but sharp as it swept across each of them, and for a brief second, the pressure they felt wasn’t from Kai anymore, it was fr
615: Setting the Pillars
The atmosphere shifted after Kai finished explaining everything, not abruptly, but steadily, like a room slowly filling with weight as every piece of information settled into place.No one interrupted this time or joked or brushed anything aside, because now they understood the scale of what was happening, and more importantly, what was coming next.The portal wasn’t just a problem.It was the beginning of something far worse.And for the first time since arriving, the room felt united, not by convenience or temporary alignment, but by necessity.Selene was the first to break the silence. “So if we don’t spread this information, more people will walk into this blindly.”Kai nodded. “Exactly. And they won’t all get lucky like you did.”Liang leaned forward slightly. “Then we don’t wait. We send word out immediately.”“We don’t just send word,” Darius added calmly. “We make sure it reaches people who matter. Not everyone will believe something like this.”Allen, who had been quiet until
614: Too Many Familiar Unfamiliar Faces
Kai didn’t try to hide it this time, he was genuinely happy.And it shows in his face, not with the lazy smirk or sarcastic half-amused version of him everyone was used to, but actual relief mixed with excitement as he led the Immortal Forging Sect into the barrier, waving them in like someone finally bringing home backup that made sense.“Come in, come in,” he said, motioning casually. “You’ll like it here, minimal death, occasional chaos, good scenery if you ignore the tied-up idiots over there.”Liang snorted. “You always find a way to make things sound normal.”“They are normal,” Kai replied without missing a beat. “This is my peaceful life now.”Abigail, who had followed them in, folded her arms. “If this is peaceful, I don’t want to see what you call trouble.”Kai glanced at her. “You already did. You just enjoyed it too much.”She didn’t respond.Which meant he was right.Emily stood slightly behind, observing quietly as always, her gaze sweeping over the newcomers with calm in
613: Familiar Faces
Hours passed quietly after Kai’s dramatic retreat, the barrier settling into its usual rhythm again, cultivation on one side, silence on the other, and the occasional groan from the tied-up elders who were still trying to process how their lives had taken such a turn. The calm didn’t last forever though, because sometime later, the sky shifted slightly, and the distant hum of something massive cutting through the air pulled everyone’s attention upward.It wasn’t subtle or quiet.A large ship descended slowly, its structure solid and refined, carrying a presence that wasn’t just power, but craftsmanship, and right at its center, clear as day, was the crest.The Immortal Forging Sect.Kai stepped out the moment he saw it, his earlier laziness gone in an instant, and Abigail followed closely behind him, both of them already smiling before the ship even fully landed. There was no tension in them this time, no calculation, just genuine anticipation, and that alone made the atmosphere fee
612: A Strategic Retreat
Kai didn’t rush as he led Jerry toward the inner section of the barrier. The walk itself was calm, almost too calm for what had just happened outside, but that was just how Kai moved when he wasn’t in a fight, steady, quiet, and thinking ten steps ahead of whatever came next. Jerry followed closely behind, his posture straighter than before, his expression more composed, though there was still something restless in his eyes that Kai didn’t miss.When they reached the boundary, Kai paused slightly and glanced back at him. “Don’t force it,” he said casually.Jerry frowned. “Force what?”Kai smirked faintly. “The barrier doesn’t like strangers who act like they belong.”Jerry didn’t respond to that, but he stepped forward more carefully this time, letting Kai’s presence guide him through. The moment he crossed, he felt it again, that subtle resistance melting away, and he understood immediately that without Kai, he wouldn’t have been able to enter so easily.“Intteresting,” he muttered
