Alex smiled but remained silent.***It was eleven in the noon when a helicopter took off from California airport, heading straight to Moonlight Lake.On the flight sat Soraya Melvis, Shaun Baker of the Four Great Guardians, and a grandmaster from the Melvis family named Lochlan, and two half-stepped Grandmasters.The Melvis family spared no effort in looking for Tucker.“Come on. There’s one hour left. Maybe we can still make it!” Soraya said.She cared because it was her cousin that had been kidnapped.“Miss Soraya, there’s no need to panic. It only takes 20 minutes to arrive at Moonlight lake by chopper. We still have time to recon the area!” Shaun laughed. “Glen, you’re too serious. We’re both grandmasters. Along with two half-stepped grandmasters, no place is off-limits to us. You know, it’s weird how Bennett himself didn’t come along. Doesn't he want to save his son’s life?” “My uncle says he has an important meeting tonight, so he had no choice but to stay behind,” So
“What? Zachary, why are you here too?”Soraya was beyond shocked at the situation at hand. It was completely different from what she had imagined.Lochlan, who recognized Zachary, immediately stopped and furrowed his brows. “Zachary, what kind of mediator are you? Does that mean you know the kidnapper too?”“He’s no kidnapper but the elder of the Divine Constabulary. He is also the maternal grandson of the president of the constabulary!” Zachary stated.Zachary was worried that chaos might ensue, especially since Alex and Shaun’s scuffle was still fresh.This first meeting really left no room for avoiding conflict.“What?” Soraya gasped, unable to process this information.Everyone else fell silent.‘If Ruby Lamar were to find out about Soraya failing to plan an assassination with a group thanks to Zachary’s words, what would her reaction be?’However, never could she have predicted that Zachary would be, of all places, here.Shaun harrumphed, unphased by his words. “Zachary,
Without warning, the ship, and its crew were all gone. He fell into the lake with a splash, his face a mask of bewilderment. “Where did they go?”The same thing happened with Shaun as he was charging toward the boat. Both Zachary and the boat had mysteriously vanished as well.He gazed around but saw no trace of the boat anywhere.“This is madness!”“Shaun, did it happen to you too? Like going straight through a mirror without seeing anyone?”“Exactly! What is this trickery?” Shaun yelled, fuming.“Illusion, it must be an illusion!” Lochlan shouted as he shot up from the water, his clothes wet through and his hair a disheveled mess. “You said he was a psychic user, right? They are skilled at using illusions, so he must have created an environment of illusion, and we were caught in it!”“What are we going to do now? Glen, aren't you supposed to be an expert with mental power?” Lochlan huffed. “I had no idea that his mental strength was so powerful to the point I got caught befo
Boom...At three in the morning, the sound of Melvis manor’s door crashing down was too loud to ignore. Families from hundreds of meters away could hear it and were startled, thinking it was some explosion.Alex’s jaw dropped open.Not because of the great noise, but because of the technique that Aunt Rockefeller used. It was beautiful, with her in jeans and black boots. That kick was a perfect copy.“Aunt, what was that style called?”“Beauty's Heart Sutra.”“Ah…”“Only a woman can learn this style so you can forget about learning it, but it was beautiful, wasn't it? That technique was called Jade's Graceful Kick! Do you wanna try taking it?”“...”Arm in arm with Alex, aunt Rockefeller marched through the threshold without hesitation.Ruby Lamar was currently on the east side villa of Melvis's family home. A woman of advanced age, even though she was worried for the safety of her grandson, Tucker, her body could not withstand staying up, so she retired to her bedroom and sl
Right after the last word left her lips, a human figure shot through the room like a bolt of lightning.That human figure was Samberg, who had earlier ran to check on the door.Looking as if he had just come out of an oven, his clothes were scorched black, and his face and hair were charred.“Ahhhh!!!”“Samberg, what happened to you?”Samberg was actually a distant relative from Lexia's side of the family, and he was a relatively strong grandmaster. Even Lexia addressed him as master. But seeing him like this made people break out in a cold sweat at how strong the enemy was.Alexis, another strong grandmaster, looked to be in bad spirits as well.“Madame, the situation is bad. The enemy is powerful. It's a cultivation guru, and they even have Mr. Tucker as a hostage. There is no way the martial artists in the Melvis family can stop them. I’ll send you away from Melvis family home at once to ensure you're safe,” Samberg said in a hushed voice. “What?” Bennett Melvis started to
“You… you're talking shit!”“You're the one who can't get it up! I can even raise dumbbells at my age!”Bennett was blinded by rage. What was more humiliating and degrading to a man than to be accused of being unable to get it up?Ruby Lamar burst out in anger. “Stop spouting your lies! My son had two sons! What do you mean he can't reproduce? Who are you? A madman? How dare to come into the Melvis family home and cause such a disgrace! You must be sick of living!”Alex gently shook his head. “That can only mean one thing, that those two grandchildren aren't yours. If you don't believe me, feel free to do a DNA test.”After a halt, he kicked Tucker again. “Alright, it's done. If you really are Bennett's son, you would've been dead. But since you aren't, I'm willing to let you go free. You can get out of here now!” If he were the Tucker from before, he would've taken this chance without hesitation. God knew how much he wished this was all a nightmare, but Alex's words hit home
Alex explained. “You need not fear me so much. I won't do much to you… for now. I just want to make one thing clear! Forty-five years ago, was it you who forced poisoned wine upon Yvonne Wilmer and Brittany Rockefeller?”His voice was sharp, clearly demanding an answer.After he was done, Ruby's legs started to shake uncontrollably, as if an entire mountain weighed on her shoulders. She could barely stand anymore.Lexia was planning to call in reinforcements from the Divine Constabulary and even more from Alaska to back Alex into a corner.However, at Alex's question, her thoughts were put to a halt.‘What is this situation?’She stared at Alex, the wheels turning in her head.What had happened back then… she remembered everything so vividly.Yvonne and Brittany had gone missing on a very stormy night. A typhoon warning was even called. He heard that the Red Guard had found new evidence of Yvonne working with the underground, and they wanted to arrest her for questioning. Ger
Lexia's eyes widened, and she stared at Alex in shock.“He… He's Madame Brianna’s son?”At that moment, Lexia went silent for a while, but Alex could hear her rapid breathing. "Look for someone named Nickolas. I don't know if he's still there, but if he is, perhaps he can give you answers."After saying that, she hung up.Putting down the phone, she took in large gulps of air. It was easy for a clever woman like her to figure out some things. She just never dared to believe it.***Putting down the phone, Alex's expression was closed, shuttered by his mother's words— ‘If there really was poison involved back then, who would be so cruel as to force a ten-year-old to drink it? Geronimo Melvis? That doesn't seem very plausible. Which father would force his own blood daughter to drink poison?’ "Is there anyone here named Nickolas?" Alex's body felt itchy. He was not good at controlling such murderous rage. His heart ached for his own mother. “Answer me!”He stomped his feet, a
The Fiend Lord’s mentor was Blaine Rockefeller.However...Grand Emperor Rowan was puzzled. “You are the last Everlasting Being? But we were sworn brothers 10,000 years ago, weren’t we?”Blaine smiled and fished out a box of cigars. “Would you like one?”After a moment, the three people smoked at the foot of Mount Yukon.Blaine suddenly spewed out a puff of smoke. He then tapped the cigar lightly and said, “Samsara, life, soul, matter, universe, void...”That puff of smoke evolved.Eventually, he snapped his fingers and said, “Women!”The smoke turned into Zendaya’s lifelike appearance. She was a real person.Alex rushed over and hugged Zendaya immediately.Zendaya touched Alex’s face. “Hubby, am I still alive?”“I, I, I don’t know either.”After he said that, he kissed her passionately.Blaine snapped his fingers again, and Zendaya disappeared instantly.“This is...”“Idiot!” Blaine flicked the ash off his cigar. “Do you still not understand it?”Alex looked at Blaine,
Alex burst into tears when she saw the Phoenix Empress.She was still protecting Phoenix firmly at the final moment of her life...“Honey! Dorothy... They are dead! They are all dead!”He pulled his hair out, completely unable to accept such a result.He did not know how long he used the last move, but it seemed like a century had passed outside the Phanes Realm. ‘There is no one left. What’s the point of living when I am the only one left?’He held Dorothy with one hand and Phoenix with the other hand, whereas Shelly was lying next to his feet.He shed tears and bawled sorrowfully.Just then, a ray of light flashed.A crystal-clear stone suddenly exploded at the scene, and someone popped out... It was Grand Emperor Rowan who was drenched in blood. He did not die. He was still alive.Looking at him, Alex cried louder.Immediately afterward, an even louder cry sounded around him.Grand Emperor Rowan was crying.Nothing was more painful in this world than having his beloved o
Alex realized that he was trapped.He had ants in his pants. Dorothy, Phoenix, Shelly, Grand Emperor Rowan, and his family were outside... Since he was trapped here, they could be in danger.“Break it!”He grabbed the Phanes Ax and struck forcefully, but to his surprise, it was as if he was hitting cotton—he could not exert any strength.“Calm down! Calm down! No hurry!“This is Phanes Banner, an existence on the same level as the Phanes Ax. It won’t work if I strike it forcefully...”At that moment, the huge grindstone kept moving in the diffracted universe, and countless living beings were ground into flesh and blood. This time, the living beings on Earth could no longer withstand the grindstone and were continuously sucked into it.Currently, the entire diffracted universe was going to end in deadlock, as if the final result had been predetermined.Death and extinction seemed to be the final way.“Ah—! That’s right. I understand it. The three thousand great spells and the c
The mother-daughter duo—the Phoenix Empress and Phoenix—spilled blood in the air.That sword’s might did not stop there, but it came down in a ruthless slash. At the scene, Dorothy and Zendaya could not keep up with their strength. They had insufficient power!Both the women were standing in front of Alex as long-range supporters.It was then that the sword descended. Zendaya turned the vines into a shield and blocked it.Poof!The vine shield shattered instantly, and the sword almost tore her apart. Knocked back abruptly and crashing into Alex’s fusion barrier, she spilled a great amount of blood on it.Boom! Boom!Alex’s heart trembled vigorously. Seeing Zendaya at the last gasp before his eyes, Alex was so heartbroken that he could not breathe. Meanwhile, the face of the white-clothed woman in his mind finally became clear.“Yukina! Daya Stoermer! Yukina is Daya Stoermer!“I finally remembered it. I finally remembered it. It turns out that the three lifetimes you’ve been ta
Grand Emperor Rowan brought momentary relief to Earth through the self-destruction of the Six Eternities.Those who were about to be sucked into the grindstone broke free from the restraints. Moreover, that huge grindstone faded away gradually and disappeared.“Ha! The grindstone is gone!”“It’s over! Great!”The people on Earth, especially those who had a narrow escape, shouted joyfully and hugged each other. Even if the men and women were unacquainted, they embraced each other excitedly.However, someone started crying shortly afterward because several nodes of the force field were broken, and at least a million living beings were sucked out of Earth before they were thrown into the grindstone and ground into flesh and blood.Someone powerful like Agatha sacrificed her life for the greater good.Even Saria failed to escape.She was also sucked into the grindstone after Agatha.Everyone was in great sorrow.Even so, the great crisis hadn’t yet been averted.Grand Emperor Ro
Autumn fell to the ground and was grabbed by Brittany.William..., on the other hand, was immediately sucked out when the suction force was restored."Husband!""Grandpa!"Brittany and Autumn wept as they watched William enter the grimstone and transform into flesh and blood."Dad—""Dad ......"This was also seen by Dorothy, Zendaya, and Alex.They were taken aback all at once.Alex roared.It had been so difficult for him to find his father and restore him to normalcy, and for all these years, he had been away, and he hadn't had time to honor his filial piety properly. In the end, he had actually gone like that."I want your life, Ancient Divinity, you son of a bitch!""Boom, boom—" Fiend Lord’s heart was beating faster and faster. The fusion still continued as it still needed time. The energy of those flesh and blood was stopping him, destroying him. The dark demonic lotus in his body was a little untenable.At this time.Earth.The node of destruction grew in size
The Earth was in peril, and everyone's life was on the line.Grand Emperor Rowan made a bold move and unleashed his most powerful attack...The gates of the Six Eternities all opened, and ghosts cried out from within the gusts of gloomy wind.It blasted straight towards the altar, which was being controlled by the Ancient Divinity and others, as well as the countless sacrificed flesh and blood."The Six Eternities?""Good guy, this magical treasure has vanished for countless years, but it has actually appeared in this mole's body. Not bad, not bad. With the Six Eternities, we can control the Everlasting Door more easily.""Go, kill them, and snatch the Six Eternities," the Ancient Divinity laughed and said to the Bull Demon King.The Bull Demon King quickly led his disciples and sons to attack Grand Emperor Rowan and the others."Come and help!" Phoenix exclaimed right away.Everyone started assisting Grand Emperor Rowan.The Six Eternities, a magical treasure, did not disappoi
However, the suction was disrupted.People who flew up fell back down.The sensation that everyone was about to float away vanished as well.Soon, the audience witnessed an incomparably amazing scene.In a nearby world, a massive dragon was being pulled. It roared and resisted but to no avail. It finally plunged into the grimstone, where it was instantly ground into flesh and blood… Those flesh and blood fell from the grimstone but seemed to fall into some strange channel. They vanished.Then, there were more living things.Due to the distance, the average person could not see those small living creatures unless they cultivated their eyes with spiritual power to a certain level. However, a large number of creatures were sucked into the grimstone and ground into flesh and blood.There was no shortage of powerful and mighty individuals among them.Even mortals could see the situation clearly with the naked eye.Agatha hovered in the air, and her expression solemn.This was an e
Diffracted Universe.Earth.It was now midday, and the sun beat down brightly.A group of young men and women swam, played, and sunbathed on a golden beach, interacting with each other and enhancing each other's feelings.For example, one of the youth, Autumn, was pushed down onto the beach chair by a hot woman, who said, "Brother, the sun is so hot, I will give you sunscreen!"Then.As the words were spoken.The sun went completely dark.Everyone raised their eyes to the sky, only to discover that the sun that had been shining brightly all day had turned blood red. So much so that the light shining down was dark red like blood, and everything appeared to be bathed in blood light."What's the problem?""How did the sun become this?""Is it a solar eclipse?"However, everyone soon noticed that a massive grimstone had appeared next to the blood-colored sun.Alex would have been surprised if he had been present.This was due to his familiarity with the grimstone.He and Phoe
