Suddenly, Bridget realized the world wasn't just black and white. It was also filled with rainbows, sunsets, and sunrises. It was too bad she wouldn't be able to see these things anymore. Had she done anything wrong? She didn't think so. She used her remaining strength to turn to look at Darius. Then, she shut her eyes.Darius was too engrossed in his world to notice what was happening. His attention was completely focused on his body. He knew enlightened martial artists experienced change with every breakthrough. His life force would also change.Even if he was ready for this, he still couldn't help being surprised by what he saw. He watched as his life force merged to form a golden, long, snake-like object. Then, scales and whiskers formed on the object. It became a golden dragon!This surprised Darius, and his breathing hitched. Everything that was happening now was beyond his understanding. Teivel had told him in the past that his path of meditation originated from the mysterious

Edward initially gave up on Bridget because he didn't think anyone could survive this. To his surprise, his worries had been for nothing. Bridget was still in good condition. He couldn't help watching Darius with a mixture of shock and admiration. Edward never would've expected Bridget to still have a chance of being alive. It was close to impossible for most to stay alive under such circumstances, but Darius had done it! Not only had he made it through, but he'd also kept Bridget alive!Edward didn't think he'd have the opportunity to witness something like this anymore. Darius himself probably wouldn't expect to experience such a situation anymore. At this thought, Edward sat by the door and watched Darius seriously. Darius was completely focused on his meditation. It wasn't something Edward had ever seen. There was something about it that caught his attention. It lured him in. The seconds ticked, and before Edward knew it, the sky had turned dark. Edward only returned to his sen

Darius sensed this and turned to look at Edward. "Why are you looking at me like that?"Edward hurriedly shook his head. "I'm surprised, that's all."Darius didn't expect to hear that. He raised an eyebrow and asked, "Why?""Because you pinpointed Bridget's location accurately." Edward put his hands behind his back. They didn't stop walking as they spoke.Darius smiled. "I see. I sensed traces of your life force, so I guessed Bridget would be somewhere here."Edward gaped at him. "Sir, can you sense someone else's life force now?"Darius faltered for a second. Then, he stopped and put his hands behind his back. He gave Edward a curious look. "I can sense yours; it's not something that happened because of my breakthrough. I could also do it in the past. It just wasn't as accurate and apparent as it is now."Edward stared at him. Darius was obviously more powerful than he'd imagined. Heck, his life force had formed a dragon! His breathing sped up.Darius turned away from him and hurried

Darius didn't say anything. He looked at the man silently. The man smiled and said, "Don't worry. I mean no harm. I'm here to tell you what I can to keep you in the loop. I don't want you to be in danger. That's not something I want to see. I've worked for the Reid family for many years; I even watched your father grow up." He looked at Darius earnestly.Darius lowered his head, remaining silent. The old man didn't let this bother him. He smiled and said, "I saw Hansley here earlier. To be honest, I was surprised to see him. He hasn't been around since your father died. I heard he settled down in the city where your father died. He must have his reasons for doing so."The old man gave Darius a worried look. "I know you're powerful, sir, and I don't know what I can do for you. I don't even know what you want to do. Still, I want you to know that you don't need to feel bad about what you've done, accidentally or intentionally. This is the Reid family's manor; it's your home. You have ab

When Darius entered Dream Investment Group's building, there wasn't an uproar. No one even stared at him. Most of them glanced at him before looking away. Some watched him for slightly longer because of his good looks. This wasn't what Darius had expected.He raised an eyebrow and put his hands behind his back. He followed the professor to his workstation. The professor gave him a complicated look as he sat down. Then, he said, "I hope you'll have a peaceful internship." He turned and headed to the next intern.It looked like the professor wasn't completely oblivious. Otherwise, he wouldn't have said something like that. His wishes for the other interns were things like "Do a good job" or "I hope you'll have a bright future here". Darius was the only one he'd wished differently. It seemed the professor was already sure he wouldn't have a smooth-sailing internship.Darius couldn't help smiling at this. Things were getting interesting. The professor shouldn't have known about things bet
