Ramsay’s face turned pale and he broke out in a cold sweat.

But he dared not bleat. He nodded and walked away in despair. He left the room.

Bernard then asked, “Master Alex, did anyone here offend you?”

Alex brushed his hair with his fingers and said, “Nothing serious. But this dude here insulted my girlfriend in front of me. I’m not sure how I should deal with him.”

Bernard raged, “You piece of shit! You signed your own death warrant. Guards! Throw him into the river and drown him!”

Everyone was frightened.

Edgar felt a shiver run down his spine. He hurriedly said, “Wait! I am the CEO of Pegasus International, Edgar Shepherd. I’m associated with Lord Lex Gunther of Thousand Miles Conglomerate. You can’t do this to me!”

As he finished his words, Bernard slapped his face.

Slap!

“Do you think that Lord Gunther will bother to help you? Drown him!” said Bernard.

Edgar panicked and he dropped on both knees pleading, “No, please! I was wrong, I apologize! Let me compensate you, M

    “No, I didn't. I never promised him. You're my husband!” cried Dorothy.Alex said, “Do you think that I’m blind? I witnessed it!”Dorothy said, "I... I didn't, I didn't mean to do that. I'm sorry, honey. Where are you? I want to see you. Let me explain and apologize to you. I'm sorry, I shouldn't believe Spark. You can punish me or hit me. Please, let’s meet up.” When Alex heard Dorothy pleading so desperately on the phone, his anger subsided.But he gave it another thought.‘Oh, crap! When Lord Lex put on a show at the Assexes, he addressed me as Master Alex. Does it mean that my identity has been exposed? The Assex family are bloodsuckers, they certainly want me to go back. Then, they will want my help to re-sign the billion-dollar contract with Thousand Miles Conglomerate. D*mn those fools, go to hell!’ he thought in his mind.Then, he asked, “Did you come to apologize because you were told to do so by Madame Joanne?”Dorothy said immediately, “No, I want to apologize.

    However, the opposite could also be said. Anyone who got on the good side of Thousand Miles Conglomerate would flourish. As Alex appeared, Madame Joanne was the first person to greet him. Contrary to her previous behavior, Madame Joanne was smiling from ear to ear. It was as if she’s another person.She took Alex by his hand and said, “Alex, it was all my fault. I was wrong to judge you so quickly; it was my mistake. This was all caused by Spark and Bill! We were all deceived by their words!” Standing behind her, Benny Assex, Anderson Assex and other members of the Assex family were all smiling apologetically.Alex said in a nonchalant voice, “Since it is a misunderstanding, then it’s no big deal. I am going to bed as I’m feeling tired.”Madame Joanne hurriedly said, "Please hold! Just now Lord Lex tore up the billion-dollar contract that was promised to us. What is the relationship between you and Lord Lex? Could you give him a call and ask him to sign the contract again?”

    Beatrice’s eyes immediately widened. “Did you really buy a necklace that costs thirty million dollars? How much money did you receive from Lord Lex?” Madame Claire was also curious.Alex shrugged. “I don’t have much money. The necklace was a gift from Lord Lex. The wedding ring that I got back was free of charge too.”Madame Claire loudly slapped her own thighs. “Oh my god! How could you hand the thirty million dollars necklace away? Are you an imbecile?”Alex replied, “It was you who threw it away.”Madame Claire remembered that she was the one who had thrown the necklace on the ground and deeply regretted it! Beatrice said, "I remember that the woman who took the necklace was someone you know. She is... Dr. Cheryl, isn't it? Can you please ask for the necklace back?”Madame Claire’s eyes lit up. “Oh yes, we must get it back.”Alex shook his head. He was too embarrassed to ask! He had just pretended to be Dr. Cheryl's boyfriend. He’s even more embarrassed by the incident in

    Alex thought, ‘If you knew that I was the boss of Thousand Miles Conglomerate, you wouldn’t have said that.’ However, now wasn’t the time to reveal that yet. Dorothy added, “I hope you take some time to think about what you even want to do in the future. You’re a full grown man and yet you’re doing nothing with your life! I know what you’re going to say, that you need to take care of your mom. But you can always hire a caretaker, can’t you? Just get a job, or you can work in my company.”Alex was put in a difficult spot, as he didn’t want to leave his mother to caretakers.However, under Dorothy’s glare, he nodded. “Okay, I’ll think about it.”The next morning, Alex gave a ride to Dorothy to the airport in her car.She met up with a few colleagues there as they were going to attend an exhibition in Block City.Alex then drove back home.On the way home, he received a call. It was from Cheryl. “Alex, you need to come to the hospital now. It’s about your mother.”Alex gasped,

    The slap startled Cheryl. It made her cheek burn up.And the worst part was what Claire had said. Cheryl knew that she was innocent—she was just a doctor, nothing else. Why did she have to endure such treatment?Claire’s loud yelling caught the attention of numerous nurses and families in the hospital.Cheryl was pissed off. “Please mind your words, madam. Please do not spout such nonsense.”Claire was an extremely hot-tempered woman, the type to hold a grudge and get revenge.She swung her hand again, slapping Cheryl across the face. Cheryl couldn’t even dodge it.Claire yelled, “Bullsh*t! Mind my words? Anyone would know that you’re the one who should mind your words! Seducing someone else’s husband like the sl*t that you are, and even hugging in public like this! Why don’t you just admit to being a shameless sl*t? I saw everything! There’s even saliva on your clothes! You guys just aren’t naked yet…”Everyone was looking at them now, gossiping softly.Cheryl was so triggered

    Holy sh*t!Alex explored his mind—it literally felt like a book, the pages flipping on its own as the vast amount of information rearranged and presented themselves: Traditional medicine, witch doctors, voodoo, charms, even medicinal martial arts. Everything came to him just a blink of an eye, engulfing his thoughts.Alex’s body relaxed as he felt the warm energy course through his body.“Alex, Alex?” Cheryl’s voice rang in Alex’s ears, snapping him back into reality.He blinked. “Huh? Dr. Coney, where am I? Where’s Mom?” Cheryl replied, “Alex, you just fainted…” Just then, a nurse rushed over. “Dr. Coney, the patient Brittany Rockefeller has stopped breathing…”The lot rushed towards Brittany’s ward.Alex saw his mother lying still in the bed, her face as pale as a sheet and the ECG in a straight line. A doctor approached them, shaking her head.“Mom! Oh Mom...” Alex cried loudly as he rushed to Brittany’s bedside.However, a bundle of information flashed through his mind:

    Cheryl stared in disbelief.She approached Brittany’s bedside and noticed her eyelids fluttering, slowly opening up.Cheryl thought that she was hallucinating.After snapping back to reality, she exclaimed excitedly, “Alex, Alex! Your mother woke up! She woke up!”Alex opened his eyes immediately, overjoyed.“Mom! Mom! You woke up!” Alex exclaimed, holding Brittany’s hand. His eyes turned red as he started to tear up.It was real, the book was real.Even his ancestor was real.This was all thanks to his ancestor.Cheryl was extremely excited and she started tearing up as well. She couldn’t believe that Brittany actually woke up. They had announced her death not long ago, yet she just woke up suddenly.This was really a miracle in the medical field!“Could it be that he really was trying to save her?” Cheryl murmured under her breath, staring at Alex with puzzled eyes.Brittany actually woke up and turned to Alex. “Alex, where am I?”Cheryl ran out of the ward to call her c

    Ten years later, Rockefeller Group had a capital of 300 billion, becoming a famous business in California.It was a fact that the Rockefellers’s achievements were because of William and Brittany’s hard work. However...The Rockefellers ended up kicking the both of them out of the family and John took over their business. Spark even wanted to have Alex’s wife.If this were really John’s scheme, it would be terrifying.Alex clenched his fists tightly. “Don’t worry, Mom. If Dad really died in vain because of Uncle’s scheme, I’ll make sure he pays for it with the worst punishments possible.”Alex decided to stay for the night in the hospital to accompany his mom instead of going back to the Assex’s residence. He knew that if he had gone home, he would end up in a terrible fate.Brittany had just woken up from her coma so her body was still fairly weak. She fell asleep in just a few moments.Alex, on the other hand, couldn’t calm down at all.The ring that his father had left him wa

    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.

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!"

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.
