Lin Yan murmured to himself as he slowly made his way down the mountain.
His first encounter with God of Death Karl.
Lin Yan knew clearly that this was a beginning—only a beginning.
The Taotie invading Earth were nothing more than ants he could crush at any time, while Queen of Demons Morgana would not directly threaten Huaxia. The hand behind the scenes orchestrating this battle of celestial forces descending upon Earth...
It might very well be God of Death Karl.
Not Holy Keisha, nor Angel Yan.
And even less likely Morgana.
Lin Yan's opponent was also God of Death Karl, and beyond him, there might be enemies from the elusive Void.
Meanwhile.
Somewhere in the sky.
A dazzling streak of light like a meteor tore across the night sky, illuminating a vast stretch of heaven.
Angel International.
Headquarters Cultural Industry Investment Conference.
"This round, we have to acquire it!"
The woman pacing back and forth in the conference room was Angel International's chairwoman. She possessed a sharp instinct for investment and could be called a born businesswoman.
Investment above all; profit eternal.
What was more, Angel International had an advantage other financial companies lacked—the most powerful protection in Huaxia.
The two sides had reached a mutually beneficial arrangement.
In truth, they were merely using each other.
"We must spare no effort."
The chairwoman had barely finished speaking.
Rumble!
A blinding meteor with a trailing tail came hurtling down. Its brilliant radiance and astonishing speed sent shivers through everyone present.
That light plunged straight downward.
The bright floor-to-ceiling windows shattered instantly, and thick dust filled the room.
The directors attending the meeting waved away the dust in confusion, grumbling inwardly. They had seen their share of minor disturbances.
But—
As the dust cleared.
An unparalleled figure appeared before their eyes.
