Chapter 835
The red–robed messenger stared at Lawrence in complete shock.
Just a few days ago, Lawrence had been in a deep coma as he was still under the influence of the spiritual beetle’s
power.
However, Lawrence had now awakened, his vitality had now been restored, and his eyes shimmering with
newfound vigor.
Most importantly, Lawrence’s eyes now held profound wisdom, a stark departure from his previous state.
Moreover, he could sense the pulsating energy of the spiritual beetle within Lawrence’s mind!
That’s right, I have acquired a mysterious power, Lawrence answered honestly.
The red–robed messenger trembled upon hearing this, his eyes turning colder as his anger quickly escalated.
He had dedicated many years to cultivating the spiritual beetles, only to have Lawrence snatch away the fruits of
his labor. This left him seething with fury, feeling manipulated and deeply frustrated!
A murderous intent flashed in his eyes as he locked his gaze on Lawrence. He roared, “Very well, since that’s the
case, I will remove your head and seize your brain!”
With those words, he materialized in front of Lawrence and the others in a series of agile movements, his speed
akin to that of a phantom. Swiftly, he clasped Lawrence by the neck, hoisting him effortlessly into the air like a
helpless chicken.
Landon’s expression twisted dramatically as he shouted, “Lawrence!”
“Mr. Katz, stay pull” Lawrence cried out.
Then, he urgently pleaded with the red–robed messenger, “I know how to extract the power of the spiritual beetle
from my mind
The red–robed messenger, who was originally consumed by wrath and eager to slay Lawrence, was caught off
guard by his words.
He withdrew the vital energy in his palm, and he fixed his gaze upon Lawrence. “What did you just say?” he
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtquestioned curiously.
“I know the method to extract the power of the spiritual beetle from my mind and return it to you, Lawrence
hurriedly affirmed.
Enraged, the red–robed messenger tightened his grip on Lawrence’s throat, cursing in rage, “Kid, do you think you
can deceive me so easily?”
As he bore his fiery gaze at Lawrence, the red–robe messenger inwardly cried out, “Once the power of the spiritual
beetle is assimilated, it remains fused with the host forever. Extracting the absorbed power is an absurd and
impossible idea!”
Unyielding, Lawrence declared, “I am not deceiving you. I am speaking the truth.”
Lawrence clutched the red–robed messenger’s hand, his face reddening as he strained to speak. He gasped. “To be
honest, this ability is also a burden to me. As long as I possess this power, you will persist in pursuing me. Over the
past few days, 1 have pondered how to restore this power to you so I can continue leading an ordinary life. And
now, I have devised a genuine method that can do so.”
Gasping for breath and unable to continue, he tapped the red–robed messenger’s arm repeatedly, conveying his
choked state and inability to speak.
After a brief moment of hesitation, the red–robed messenger finally released his grip on Lawrence’s throat.
Collapsing to the ground, Lawrence coughed heavily, greedily inhaling precious air.
At that moment, each breath felt like a gift from heaven.
The red–robed messenger stood tall, towering over Lawrence, and inquired, ‘Speak. What method do you
propose?” The spiritual beetle had taken over two decades to cultivate, and the red–robed messenger was
reluctant to let Lawrence absolve its power. He intended to seize the spiritual beetle’s energy if there was a chance
to retrieve it.
Lawrence took deep, calming breathis to restore his composure before standing up. Facing the red–robed
messenger, he spoke with unwavering resolve, “I have a method to extract the power, but I do have some
conditions that I need you to
agree to.”
The red–robed messenger’s gaze chilled as he retorted, “I could kill you this instant. Do you dare impose conditions
upon
ine?”
Lawrence’s voice resonated with conviction as he spoke, “Ending my life is inconsequential. But can you bear to
watch all your painstaking efforts, cultivated over two decades, go to waste without ever retrieving the power of the
spiritual beetle?” The red–robed messenger pondered for three seconds, his gaze intense. “Alright, what are your
conditions?” he asked.

Lawrence’s voice brimmed with confidence as he laid out his plan, ‘It is simple. Put away those flying cursed beetles
outside Let the three of them leave, and I will stay here to teach you how to extract the power.”
“Lawrence!” Landon and Yvonne cried out in protest. Their expressions turned grave, and their voices were filled
with
concer
Tiana’s heart stirred with admiration as she wondered, “Is Lawrence willing to sacrifice himself just to save us?”
“Mr. Katz, listen to me and do not speak. This is between me and this gentleman, Lawrence silenced Landon and
the others as he threw them a meaningful glance
Then, he turned to the red–robed messenger. “How about this condition?”
The red–robed messenger sneered, his voice laced with skepticism. “Do you think I would believe such a feeble lie?
Letting them go? So that they can seek help?”
Unfazed, Lawrence asserted, “Believe it or not, it’s your choice. But remember, I will be here. It’s up to you whether
to strike this deal.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe red–robed messenger challenged defiantly, ‘And what if I refuse?”
Lawrence’s tone remained resolute as he responded, “Then you can kill all of us, but the power of the spiritual
beetle will elude your grasp. You’ll be confined to the mortal realm for decades, unable to return to your
homeland.”
Surprise flickered in the red–robed messenger’s eyes as he asked, “You know about that place?”
Lawrena pointed to his own head, his voice filled with certainty. By absorbing with the power of the spiritual beetle,
I’ve gained fragments of its memories. That place is a true paradise, your homeland. Only there will you have
absolute control. But if you kill me, you’ll be trapped in this world for thirty years junable to return.”
The red–robed messenger locked his gaze on Lawrence, his expression conflicted.
After a contemplative pause, the red–robed messenger made a firm decision and declared, “Fine, I agree to your
conditions.”
With a wave of his hand, the dark clouds dissipated, revealing a clear path above the Peace Restaurant.
Turning to Landon and Yvonne, the red–robed messenger’s voice carried authority, “Get lost!”
Tiana’s eyes lit up with relief as she swiftly left.
The oppressive presence of the red–robed messenger had weighed heavily on her, but now she could finally escape
its grip. However, Tiana halted after taking a few steps.
Landon and Yvonne remained rooted to the spot, their unwavering determination evident.
Tiana’s brows knitted in concern as she exclaimed, “You…”
Landon’s voice resonated with conviction, “Lawrence, we are family. If we’re facing death, we’ll face it together.
Our lives are intertwined!”
Yvonne chimed in, undeterred by her fear, “That’s right, Lawrence. We are your elders. How can we abandon you
in this perilous moment?”
Tiana witnessed their unyielding unity in the face of danger and felt a pang of guilt for trying to leave.
The red–robed messenger surveyed the scene, his voice dripping with cold menace, “I don’t care about your bonds,
but you have ten seconds. Either disappear from my sight or face the consequences!”
