Ch. 571..580

Life After Prison Chapter 571-“Launching spiritual energy from one’s person is something that only a warrior king can achieve!” The grand-elder was horrified when he saw what Severin did. After all, regardless of how powerful a profound. master was, the most they could do was manifest spiritual energy on their fists when in battle. Only warrior kings can attack using the aura of one’s body.

The gap between the attainment of a warrior king and a profound master was huge, and not even ten level nine profound masters could be a match for a level one warrior king. Such was the disparity between both ranks. For that reason, Gracie felt calm and reassured after knowing that Severin was a warrior king, because that would mean an easy surefire victory.

Severin smiled slightly, flicked his fingers again, and shot out a ray of light toward the grand-elder, whose face turned pale with fright upon seeing that and immediately moved to dodge it. Though he managed to evade it, two of the Skydrake Gang’s elders behind him were killed in one go.

The grand-elder’s quick reaction speed came as a bit of a surprise to Severin. He rushed forward in the blink of an eye, appeared behind the grand-elder, and landed a slap on the grand-elder’s head before the old man could run away. A dull thud was heard, and the Skydrake Hall’s grand-elder was beheaded.

Everyone was dumbfounded because it took Severin only a short while to behead all four elders by himself, and that included two level nine profound masters. The difference in strength was simply unimaginable.

“Time for a massacre!” Gracie and her men were extremely excited when she saw what happened and soon entered into a killing frenzy.

“I surrender!”

“Me too!” A number of people surrendered immediately when they saw the death of their higher-ups. Only those with much higher attainment resisted briefly, but were still beheaded nonetheless. It was an easy win for Equus Hall.

“The rest of you follow our grand-elder to seize the Skydrake Gang’s property!” Gracie then began to make arrangements after the fight was over. Once everything had been arranged, she walked up to Severin and said to him, “You’re too strong, Supreme Leader! Thank you for your help in solving this issue for us. I don’t need to worry about Rod forcing me to marry him anymore!”

Severin said with a faint smile, “We’re all in this together. It’s only right that I do this!”

Sir…my father said that the Dracodeus Temple’s Supreme Leader is an old man. Is he…umm… Is he…” Gracie thought about it and decided to ask Severin.

Severin smiled wryly and said, “Him? He’s the one who left this mess to me!”

Life After Prison Chapter 572-“Mess?” Gracie nearly fainted after hearing that and asked Severin, “What do you mean ‘mess’? Equus Hall will be the most powerful gang in Brookton from tonight onward. Do you need money, Supreme Leader? We can give you money every year! Just tell us what you need and we’ll be able to provide it to you! Equus Hall is yours, after all!”

Severin smiled wryly and said, “I don’t need money. In my eyes, money is just a number and an external object. The previous supreme leader gave me more than enough money to spend. I could easily buy the entire city of Brookton if I wanted!”

Gracie gasped when she heard that because that was a very huge sum of money-cold hard cash instead of the value of many assets. The money that Severin had was essentially capital and cash flow.

“Why did you call this a mess, though? My dad said that there would be twelve halls named according to the oriental zodiac. Collectively, we’re a very powerful force. Aren’t you the least bit interested in us?” Gracie looked bafflingly at the young man in front of her. She had never been as curious about someone as she did with the mysterious supreme leader who appeared out of nowhere.

Severin merely smiled wryly and said, “Firstly, I’m not very interested in these things, and I just want to live a comfortable life. Secondly, when the old man gave me this ring, he asked me to find the halls, but he didn’t tell me which cities these twelve halls are located in! It’s a pain in the neck to find.”

As he said that, he paused for a bit and continued, “I got lucky this time and found one here though, so now it’s a total of three halls. The first is Brookbourn’s Draco Hall, the second is Riverson’s Mus Hall, and the third is your Equus Hall.”

“Hehe, I see!” Gracie could not help but cover her mouth and laugh when she heard that. “My father said. that the old man who established Equus Hall had a strange personality, so it seems that he’s just teasing. you!”

Severin smiled and said, “Yeah, he is a playful person at heart, but he’s a nice guy! And besides, I wouldn’t be where I am today without him!” A sudden thought occurred to Severin and he asked, “Where’s your father, by the way? Why didn’t he come here with you?”

The smile on Gracie’s face disappeared in an instant and she became a little sentimental. “My father left me a few years ago. Cancer took his life. I was thrust into becoming the leader of Equus Hall, and I was forced to grit my teeth and hang on until today!” Gracie then shook away her sadness and deliberately forced a smile to say, “But it’s not too bad though. I’m glad that you showed up and helped me solve such a huge issue at a time when I was on the verge of collapse. I don’t know how else to thank you. I usually gave money to those who helped me, but you don’t seem to need money that much!”

Gracie then bit her red lips as a blush appeared on her face and she said half-jokingly, “Well, if you don’t want money, then how about I repay your kindness by pledging to give my heart to you?”

Severin was taken aback, and hurriedly waved his hands to say, “No, no, no, no…don’t! I can’t do that. I have a wife and a daughter!”

“Haha!” Gracie could not resist laughing and saying, “Scared you, didn’t I? I was just kidding!” She then punched Severin’s chest softly like they were the best of friends.

“By the way, if you have the time, could you help me be on the lookout for the other halls like Sus Hall, Gallus Hall, or something of the sort? Let me know as soon as you have word of them, because they’re one of our halls too!” Severin decided to ask for her help.

“Hehe!” After Gracie heard that, she could not help but laugh again. “I was a little ashamed when they made fun of Equus Hall as Ick-A’s Hall, but now that I think about it, Sus Hall and Gallus Hall might be”

even easier for people to make fun of! Hahah!

Severin could not help but laugh too. “Haha, that old man is a real joker! Seeing all the halls named after these Latin animal names left me utterly speechless!”

Life After Prison Chapter 573-Gracie stole a glance at Severin and could not help but say, “Well, since everything’s almost done here, we can leave the rest to the elders. Equus Hall will be the biggest organization here in Brookton tomorrow, and even our city’s mansion wouldn’t dare to offend us!” After a pause, she added, “Are you still up for a couple of drinks? I still have some good wine back at my place, so why don’t we enjoy ourselves a little once we head back?”

Severin nodded after considering her proposal. “Sure. I would love to chat and understand a bit more about Equus Hall!”

The two of them then drove back with Gracie leading Severin to a villa area.

“Hall Master!” More than a dozen of Equus Hall’s people had been tasked to patrol the area at night, and they greeted Gracie respectfully once she parked her car and walked over with Severin.

Gracie nodded. “Thanks for your hard work.”

After finishing her sentence, she smiled at Severin and said, “Come on in, handsome. I heard Winnie calling you handsome, so I feel like calling you ‘handsome’ too. It sounds friendlier, and I think it’ll do just fine since you don’t want me to expose your identity!”

Severin laughed and walked in with her. “Haha, sure! I am pretty handsome, haha!”

The guys who were on patrol were all stunned after Severin left. One of them gulped and asked the rest, Did you notice that Hall Master was smiling!”

“I did, I did! I couldn’t believe she was actually smiling!” Another man was also amazed.

“She did more than smile. She even called that man ‘handsome’, and they only came back at this late hour! That man followed her into the villa where she’s staying at. Do you think…he’s staying with her tonight?” A middle-aged man could not help but guess when he heard it.

“That can’t be! No! My goddess! Did this man manage to conquer her? I can’t accept this!” One of the men there felt heartbroken all of a sudden.

The person next to him rubbed salt into his wound and said, “Don’t even think about it. Your chance will never come! Our hall master might be beautiful and sexy, but she’s not that easily tamed. There must be something more to that man aside from simply being handsome. He must be skilled in some way too!”

“But I’ve never heard our hall master mention him before! When did he come into her life? He’s pretty bold too. Isn’t he afraid that the Skydrake Gang’s leader will kill him?” Some people had a puzzled look and began to discuss everything with each other.

Evidently, the group of people who stayed back on guard duty had no idea what happened that night. They were similarly clueless over the fact that Rod-the Skydrake Hall’s leader-was already dead, and that the situation in Brookton would change completely once the sun rises.

“Why don’t you take a shower while I’ll prepare some tidbits and get the wine ready?” Gracie suggested to Severin after they entered the villa.

Life After Prison Chapter 574-“Sure.” Severin nodded and went upstairs to take a shower.

Once Severin went upstairs, Gracie could not help but touch her cheek and mumble to herself, “Goodness gracious! Why am I blushing? I can’t believe I’m feeling shy in front of the supreme leader! I need to snap out of it! He might be a very amazing guy, but he’s supposed to be my superior! Quit having those thoughts! He has a wife and children too, so there’s no reason for him to like me!”

The next second, however, another voice sounded in her mind, ‘What are you scared of, Gracie? Does it matter if he has a wife? This is your first time meeting a man who can make your heart flutter. You’ll regret it for the rest of your life if you don’t seize the opportunity. Besides, you’re a sexy and good- looking. woman. No man can resist that!’

Gracie could not help herself from letting her imagination run wild. Severin’s show, in particular, enchanted her completely, and his concern for her as well as that sense of security he gave her was something she no longer experienced after her father’s death.

When Severin came out in a set of pajamas after taking a shower, he saw a few bottles of red wine and some food on the living room table along with Gracie who had bathed and changed into a sexy maroon suspender nightdress.

She was a charming woman, and the way she dressed made her even more bewitching, especially since. her long sexy legs and delicate collarbone were exposed.

“I see the hall master has taken a bath too!” Severin was stunned for a moment and immediately realized that it would be inappropriate for him to keep looking at her, hence the reason he made small talk as soon as he went over.

“Yeah!” Gracie nodded, but her heart was starting to throb a lot stronger than before. After all, it was her first time dressing like that in front of a man. Though she tended to dress similarly in front of other people, her clothes were generally more conservative than that. Moreover, it was the first time she wore something so revealing.

Her heartbeat was getting quicker and she was even blushing a little, but she pretended to act relaxed as she uncorked a bottle of red wine and poured it for Severin. “You don’t need to call me “Hall Master’, handsome. Just call me Gracie. I wouldn’t want there to be so much formality between us!”

“Okay, Gracie!” Severin then cleared his throat awkwardly and did not know where to look because Gracie. was sitting just opposite him.

After some silent thought, he could not help but ask, “So, Gracie, do you dress like this all the time?”

Gracie smiled lightly and said, “Yeah. I always wear this at home after taking a shower. Is something wrong? No one else is here anyway, and it’s more comfortable to dress like this. Sigh, the only time I get. to relax and unwind is after I take my nightly bath and prepare for bed!”

Severin smiled and clinked a glass with her. “Well! How about a toast, then? Don’t you think it’s fate that brought us here today?”

“You think we’re fated too?” Gracie’s heartbeat sped up considerably, and after drinking the wine in the cup, she could not help but lower her head slightly. In her mind, she thought, “I guess men do like it when women dress like this. Now he’s even talking about fate and stuff like that. Is he hinting something at me? Wait…is my supreme leader hoping that something will happen between us tonight?”

Life After Prison Chapter 575-Severin looked at Gracie’s shy demeanor and instantly knew that she had misunderstood. The fate he was talking about was not the fate between a man and a woman, but fate that he had come across one of the twelve halls. This is bad. Maybe I’m too handsome that this beautiful lady here is starting to take an interest in me. She might be trying to hint at something when she dressed so seductively after a quick.

bath!’

The atmosphere here instantly became a little awkward, and for a moment, neither of them knew what to say to the other.

“Let me pour a glass for you, handsome!” Eventually, Gracie was the first to break the silence. She hastily poured some wine for Severin and deliberately asked, “By the way, how did you and your wife meet? I’m jealous that she got to marry a such a wonderful man!”

Severin smiled wryly and said, “I met her in the most unimaginable way possible. It all started five years ago when I was in a relationship with a college classmate whom I loved very much. We dated for three years, and I did everything she asked of me. After we graduated, my family gave her family a dowry and we got engaged.”

He had a lot of wine with Wesley earlier that night, and he began to open up as he reminisced about his past after Gracie brought it up. Severin took a sip of red wine and said again, “When we bought a home to live in after we got married, I imagined what it would be like to marry her, work hard together, have a child, build a family, and live happily together.”

“And then?” Gracie asked eagerly. “Did you and your fiancée get married?” She was excited to get to know Severin better.

Severin shook his head. “No. There was this rich guy named Easton who set me up. He arranged for my friends to get me drunk, and he then gambled with me. I wasn’t sober then, and he….” Severin then recounted what happened that fateful night.

After listening to the full story, Gracie was filled with emotion as she said, “I didn’t think that our supreme leader would’ve gone through so many things. Lucy’s such a terrible person! Even if you went to jail and she doesn’t love you anymore, she has no reason to treat your parents that way. She’s lucky you didn’t kill her! I can’t believe she would keep doing such terrible things to you again and again!”

Severin smiled wryly and said, “Yes, but I’ve already gotten my revenge. Her dream was supposed to be shattered when I made Easton bankrupt and left him in huge debt, but I didn’t expect her to get cozy with him just a few days after he came back from Cherridom!”

“Cherridom? Ugh, they’re the worst! He should be grateful that all you did was break one of his legs and destroy his attainment. I didn’t expect him to get his men to stir trouble with you! He’s despicable!” As Gracie spoke, she could not help but clenched her fists as if to protest the injustice done unto Severin.

Severin said with a faint smile, “Haha, you know, there are times when killing a person is far too light a punishment for them. I enjoy it when they’re powerless to do anything to me even though they can’t stand me!”

Gracie then had a sudden thought and asked Severin, “Will you show mercy in the future if they tell the people from the Slasher Gang to come kill you? If you do, I’ll get angry, and I’ll find that Cain guy so I can kill him!”

Life After Prison Chapter 576-Severin shook his head and said, “We both hate Cherridom, right? If Cain’s dead, then won’t Cherridom’s people be sending themselves to their death? I was considering killing Cain before I set off on my journey. so Lucy won’t have someone rich to rely on! She’ll be so pissed if that happens!”

“Then why don’t you look for Lucy and kill her too?” Gracie blurted out without thinking. Severin, however, remained silent.

Gracie frowned. A sudden realization occurred to her and she said lamentably, “I understand why now. You value the relationships you’ve had with people, be they romantic or platonic, and you must have loved her very deeply during the three years that you were dating her. If you didn’t feel that way, you wouldn’t’ve smashed that beer bottle over Easton’s head for her sake. I can imagine how difficult it must be to kill someone you once loved so much!”

“That’s largely the reason. However, I’ve been patient with her time and time again, but if she pushes me over the line, I trust I won’t show her any mercy when that happens!” Severin thought about that possibility and smiled coldly in the end.

Gracie admired him even more and could not help but say, “Lucy is a fool. She shouldn’t have left you back then. Having a man like you by her side is such a blessing! I’m even more jealous of your wife now!”

Severin did not expect her to bring that up again and felt a little awkward. After all, what clearer sign could a woman give when she tells a man that she envies his wife? She would not have said something like that if she did not have that idea in mind.

“Ahem, let’s have a drink!” Severin cleared his throat and raised a glass to her.

Gracie was in good spirits too, and she drank several cups in quick succession.

Severin looked at how sexy Gracie was and could not help but ask with a smile, “I’m sure many men have the hots for someone like you, Gracie.”

Upon hearing that, Gracie laughed and said, “Haha, I’m a tigress in the eyes of many people, and they wouldn’t dare to give it a shot at wooing me. Besides, I’m not interested in ordinary men. The only people who are brave enough to try and win my heart are people like Rod, who have ulterior motives and aren’t afraid of death!”

Severin nodded, looked earnestly at her, and said, “You’re only in your twenties, and it couldn’t have been easy for you to manage such a large organization. Besides, if you’re not harsh enough sometimes, then. the others probably won’t accept that a woman like you is managing Equus Hall. I believe you’re a softie at heart, but it’s just your position that requires you to act condescending and cold all the time.” Gracie’s smile stiffened when she heard that and she bit her red lips while saying to Severin, “You’re right.. There are times I feel super exhausted, and I haven’t gotten any good sleep after Rod took a fancy to me! I’m really grateful for what you did today. I’ll drink three glasses as a toast to you, Supreme Leader!” Having said that, she poured herself three glasses of red wine and drank them all in one go.

Life After Prison Chapter 577-“Whoa, whoa, take it easy there, tigress! I wouldn’t want you getting flat-out drunk!” Severin could not help but remind her after seeing her drinking a considerable amount of alcohol.

However, Gracie smiled charmingly and said to him, “Why are you so flustered? I trust that my supreme leader is a decent person who won’t take advantage of someone else!”

“That’s for sure!” Severin smiled bitterly, but he was a little speechless as he secretly thought to himself,’ Even if I am a decent person, that’s still not a reason for you to dress so sexily!’ Furthermore, her slightly forward-leaning posture revealed more of her cleavage, which left Severin speechless and prompted him to look elsewhere.

“We have another bottle here! Let’s share it!” After Gracie opened the last bottle of red wine, she stood up, poured some for Severin, and said, “Are you worried that a tigress like me is going to gobble you up?” Despite the calmness she projected when she said that, deep down, she felt extremely nervous. Though she made it sound like she was just joking, her true intentions were to see Severin’s reaction-if he showed an interest in her, then she would not mind it if one thing led to another. Her head was buzzing from all the drinking, but she was in a good mood because it had been far too long since she had the chance to relax like that.

“Haha! No, not at all!” Severin laughed and drank the wine she poured for him.

“I…It’s been a long time since I’ve relaxed like this. Thank you so, so much!” Unexpectedly, Gracie could not bear it any longer and lay down on the table just as Severin finished his last cup and was about to go to bed.

“Gracie, umm…” Severin was speechless. She could tell that Gracie had a great time that night, but she had let her guard down a little too much in front of him. He could not wrap his head around how such at beautiful and sexy woman would dare to get drunk in front of a man she just met.

Severin was completely speechless. All he could do was walk over, make sure she was all right, and then figure out which room in the villa belonged to her. When he finally located it, he came back, shook his head helplessly, then carried the half-conscious Gracie to her room.

“Thank you so…very much…Supreme Leader,” Gracie said in a daze as she felt a pair of strong arms carry her up for some time until she was placed gently down on the bed.

After that, her memory became a blur. Severin looked at the beautiful woman who was sleeping soundly on the bed. Her sexy red lips and slender long legs made him feel a little flustered, and he quickly went. out and closed the door.

He then came to an empty room just beside hers and went in to sleep.

The next morning, it was already past eight when Severin woke up. He went out, searched for a nearby toilet, and went in. As soon as he opened the door of the toilet, he was caught unprepared by the sight of a beautiful figure squatting on the toilet with a drunken expression.

“Ah! W-who are you?” Gracie was a little dizzy when she woke up earlier, and she went to the bathroom after feeling the urge to go. Since no one ever dared to enter her villa before, she had completely forgotten that she had invited Severin to drink with her the previous night.

For that same reason, she went to the bathroom and closed the door without locking it like she always did. As a result, she was incredibly terrified when she saw Severin entering.

Life After Prison Chapter 578-“Ah, Supreme Leader, it’s you! I’m sorry, I…” Gracie then realized that the person in front of her was her superior, and she did not know what to say because she felt as if she had made a mistake.

“Ahem. Why didn’t you lock the door?” Severin felt embarrassed too and immediately backed out. After he exited and closed the door, he was unable to shake off his flustered feeling as the image of her fair- skinned body lingered in his mind for some time.

A few seconds later, he could not help himself from laughing as he stood outside the door. It was amusing because he had accidentally seen something he should not have, so he was the one who should be apologizing. However, Gracie turned out to be more anxious than he was, and she even apologized to him instead of blaming him for barging in.

“Gosh, how did I get so drunk? I completely forgot that he was sleeping upstairs when I woke up this morning…” Gracie did not know whether to laugh or cry as she sat on the toilet, and she had no idea just how much of her body did Severin see from that angle earlier. She was a woman, after all, and no one had ever seen her body before.

After staring in a daze at the mirror for some time, Gracie finally opened the door, pretended to be calm, and walked out while saying, “You woke up really early today. I thought you were still sleeping!”

Severin pretended as if nothing happened and smiled faintly at her while saying, “Hehe, I was planning to leave a little earlier since I’m worried that I might not be able to reach Lupool by night.”

“Oh, then I’ll get changed right now! We can have breakfast together later and I’ll see you off after that!” Gracie said to Severin after giving it a bit of thought. After saying that, she immediately walked into her. room and closed the door behind her.

“Phew!” Gracie frowned after entering her room and felt unusually awkward like never before. “That was so embarrassing! He must’ve seen my body earlier, but it’s not like I can ask him if he did! He probably won’t go around telling people, right? No, he won’t! The supreme leader is a good person! He won’t say anything to anyone!” Gracie mumbled to herself and soon found a dress that looked quite good. After putting it on, she decided to put on some makeup and go out only after meticulously making sure she looked good.

By the time she went downstairs, Severin had already changed and was waiting for her. He could not help but feel stunned for a moment when he saw Gracie wearing such a beautiful dress. She was incredibly beautiful, and the charming yet slightly cute look when she smiled was almost on par with Diane.

Of course, Severin could not say which of the two women looked better, because they were both unique. in their way and it was difficult to identify a clear winner.

“Let’s go and have some breakfast. Should I call more of my people to see you off?” Gracie pursed her red lips and asked Severin after walking up to him.

Severin said, “No, no, that’s not necessary. I’m not used to having so many people. And since I’m driving. you don’t need to trouble yourself to see me off either.”

“But that’s not appropriate! You’re the supreme leader! It’s only right that I see you off!” Gracie said with a smile.

“You don’t have to go through all that trouble. Really. It’s good enough for you to see me off when I get into my car!” Severin smiled faintly.

“Okay, but breakfast is my treat!” Gracie insisted.

Life After Prison Chapter 579-Before long, the two of them walked out with each other.

At that moment, a few elders were about to come over and report on their work. As soon as they saw Gracie wearing a dress, the first elder’s jaw nearly dropped and he could not help but ask, “M-m-m- ma’am …..where are you going?”

He was dumbfounded because she tended to wear tight leather pants or jeans that were much more conservative in terms of style. However, she came out that morning wearing a dress-a knee-length floral dress, no less! If they had not seen it for themselves, they would have thought that they were dreaming.

“What’s with all your expressions? Do you have to be so exaggerated? I’m going out for breakfast with our supreme leader. He’ll be leaving soon.” Gracie smiled faintly and said to the elders, who were once again. shocked because Gracie had a smile on her face. It was such a rare sight that they began to wonder if she was still the same fierce tigress from before.

The second elder frowned instantly and thought to himself, ‘Did the supreme leader conquer this tigress. last night? There’s no other explanation as to why she would change so much in just one night.”

“Umm, we came here to inform you that many of the Skydrake Gang’s people surrendered to us, and we managed to seize their property too. At this juncture, we’re waiting for you to count the total value of what we managed to get!” said the grand-elder as he stepped forward.

Gracie nodded in satisfaction and said, “You can figure it out yourselves. I’m going to have breakfast with our supreme leader, and I’m planning to give myself a day off later. if there’s anything else you wish to inform me, you can do so tomorrow!”

“Understood!” The elders immediately gestured respectfully while watching the two of them leave.

“She’s changed, and it’s a huge change to boot! How could she even think of taking a day off at such an important moment?” The grand-elder muttered in shock as Gracie and Severin left the villa.

The second elder took a guess and said, “She must’ve been conquered by him last night, otherwise things wouldn’t have ended like this.”

“But,” the third elder pointed out, “he seems to be much older than her, and he probably already has a wife!

“What do you know? I wouldn’t be surprised if someone like him had a dozen wives. His talent is like a rare gem, and even if he doesn’t want to marry our hall master, he can always have a private relationship with her. I believe that her attitude changed after they did it last night!” the second elder said with conviction.

The grand-elder nodded and said, “It makes sense that she wants to take a day off today. She’s probably exhausted from last night. I bet she’ll go to bed and catch up on her sleep once she returns later.”

Their views were shared by the third elder too. After thinking for a while, he could not help himself from Haughing and saying, “Haha! Whether or not our hall master marries the supreme leader isn’t important as long as he slept with her. She will take good care of our Equus Hall in the future. The chance for our hall to receive special treatment as compared to the other eleven halls is hard to come by.”

“Yes! Equus Hall is poised to grow even more in the future!”

The old men had a lively discussion with each other.

“Look, those two make such a nice couple! He’s so handsome, and she’s so pretty too!”

Gracie and Severin had not been out long when someone made a remark about them from not too far away. Gracie blushed immediately, then glanced at Severin secretly. She felt all sweet in her heart, and she thought about how wonderful it would be if she and him were a real couple. It was a shame that their relationship was just that of superior and subordinate.

Severin did not even do anything to Gracie despite having such a good opportunity the previous night, and she came to understand that he had a uniquely pure heart. Still, she felt somewhat a little disappointed for some reason.

After they were done with breakfast, Gracie and Severin walked back to the villa again.

Life After Prison Chapter 580-Severin got into the car, smiled at Gracie, and said to her. “You don’t have to see me off. Before I leave, I should remind you once again that even though it’s fine for you to call me Supreme Leader here, you must never address me like that when you go to Brookbourn. After all, no one knows me here in Brookton, but I don’t want my parents or my wife to know my identity!”

“I’ll keep that in mind! I’ll just call you ‘handsome’ then. That’ll do, right?” Gracie smiled.

Severin had a slightly odd expression on his face when he heard her call him that because he was reminded of Sheila who frequently called him ‘my handsome Severin’ every time they met.

“As you wish!” Severin smiled wryly and drove off.

Gracie could not help but let out a sigh as she watched Severin’s car drive out of her sight.

Severin drove non-stop and finally reached Lupool when the sky was already dark. There was a huge. mountain south of Lupool that made everyone stop to look, and although Lupool was a relatively small area, it had dense spiritual energy that gave rise to a large number of practitioners in the city.

After Severin arrived, he parked the car and went to book a hotel. After having his dinner, he decided to go around and take a stroll. He soon found himself arriving at a plaza, where he felt like buying a cup of coffee.

All of a sudden, a middle-aged man collapsed on the ground not too far away, while a woman in her twenties shouted anxiously out of fright. “Dad, what happened? Dad! Are you okay?”

Several bodyguards immediately stood there in a daze without knowing what to do.

Severin glanced in their direction, walked over, and said to them, “Allow me to have a look. This seems to be a cerebral hemorrhage, but I can help cure it!”

“You…you can cure my dad?” The woman’s eyes turned red as she looked helplessly at Severin.

“Rest assured, miss. He’s in safe hands!” Severin smiled slightly and squatted down.

However, the rich guy in a white suit who stood next to her grabbed Severin’s shoulder and said, “Who are you and where did you come from? This is the head of the Wellers, who are a first-tier family in Lupool. Will you be able to bear the consequences if something goes wrong?”

After finishing speaking, he persuaded the woman beside him, “You don’t know him at all, Rory. And don’t forget that your family made a lot of enemies. Do you think it’s right for you to let him treat your father? What if this guy kills your father instead? I think it’d be better for you to have him sent to the nearest hospital!”

As soon as Rory heard that, her expression soured immediately and she asked Severin, “Who are you? Are you a doctor? Do you have a medical license?”

Severin looked up at her and said, “Is that important right now, missy? Your father will be dead if he’s not treated in five minutes. Are you sure you can get him to the hospital within five minutes and have a doctor treat him immediately?”
