Disguising herself as a passer-by, Hailey slowly passed Rockefeller Manor and glanced sideways at the plaque. It turned out the two large words, “The Rockefellers,” had long been removed and thrown away. It was replaced with a few gilded words that said—Returning Zeal Headquarters.The gate looked familiar, yet a gang of bandits had now snatched it away. The most worrying thing was that her brother, Alex, had disappeared after hosting his children’s first birthday party. He had never been heard of since.As soon as she thought about it, she felt a pain in her chest.‘Bro, where are you?’Hailey recalled her past with Alex. For a moment, she forgot to walk and looked in the direction of the gate, indulging in a train of thoughts.“Hey. What are you looking at?”Presently, two people were walking out of the Returning Zeal Headquarters. After they saw Hailey, they immediately scolded her.“Who are you? What are you doing? Why are you sneaking around outside our house? Are you tryin
The elder disciple’s face darkened immediately. “Do you know what this means? This is blasphemy against the immortals! You are a mere mortal. How dare you refuse an immortal’s request?! Are you not afraid that I will send down a thunderbolt and turn you into ashes?”Never did Hailey expect that the people from the Returning Sword Sect would do something as brazen as snatching a civilian woman in broad daylight. So, she screamed for help in a moment of desperation.Smack!The younger disciple was a little nervous and afraid that Hailey’s voice would lure the young sect master out. It would be terrible if they were discovered, so all he could do was slap Hailey in a fit of excitement.How could Hailey withstand the slap?Sent flying, her facial bones were fractured, half of her teeth were knocked out, her nose collapsed, and half of her face was swollen. She was a stunning beauty just now, but the slap had instantly turned her hideous. After landing on the ground, she spat a large m
The sudden appearance of Alex and Luna stunned the two Returning Sword Sect members. They had certainly popped up in a surprising way.However, once they’d taken a good look at Alex and Luna’s apparent cultivation stages, they let their guard down.To them, Alex hadn’t even reached Nascent Soul.On the other hand, although Luna appeared stronger than Alex, she was nothing more than a mere ant to them. They could simply destroy her with a wave of their hands.“How dare you, a mere little Core Formation, butt in on our sect’s issues? Do you have a death wish?” One of the members, five meters away from Alex, said with a fierce expression.Upset, he wanted to finish off Hailey quickly, yet these random people came out of nowhere, obviously looking for trouble. This put them at risk of being found out by their sect leader.“Returning Sword Sect?” Alex looked at Hailey sadly.‘To think that such a beautiful lady would be beaten up like this…’Her last sentence, especially, caused Ale
In the next second, an unbelievable scene took place.Alex’s finger touched the tip of the sword, but it didn’t get pierced. Instead, he managed to stop the attack.The sword was quickly frozen, along with some hissing, turning into an ice sword. The man was instantly frozen into an ice statue by the extreme cold temperature.“What?”“What happened? How is this… possible?”The other man’s pupils shrunk in disbelief. In the next second, he heard a crackling sound, and a fracture appeared on the mystical sword of his partner.It slowly widened until dense cracks appeared on his partner’s body as well.A few seconds later, a loud clang filled the air. His sworn brother’s body, along with his clothes and sword, had broken into crushed ice like it was glass. “Brother?!” The man shouted, his voice shaking. Not only because he’d lost his comrade, but only because he feared Alex.Since they viewed him as a weak Core Formation guy, they never expected Alex to be so deadly. His broth
Boom—Alex looked at the tablet on the lintel. It was an eyesore to him, so he sent out a wave of mystical energy and destroyed it.Just as he was about to walk into the manor, he took another look at the tall gates that were painted red and frowned.“Honey, what’s wrong?” Luna noticed Alex’s expression and asked.Alex replied, “This isn’t the original door. It’s been replaced.”Luna squinted. “If these aren’t our doors, keeping them would only dirty our eyes.”Almost instantly, her devilish instincts took over, and she kicked the doors down.Bang!A loud explosion shook the silence in the air.The two doors exploding from the kick, the powerful Chi sent countless wooden shreds flying in. Even the door frame was destroyed.Alex squinted his eyes. His divine eye activated, allowing him insight into what had happened—A young man in white bought a group of men here.He destroyed their gates with one slash of his sword and swore that Rockefeller Manor belonged to the Returning
At the time, only a few troops were hanging around the gates of Rockefeller Manor.One happened to be a disguised Flying Eagles member, monitoring all movements of the Returning Sword Sect.They witnessed Alex’s return with their own eyes and saw how he killed two Returning Sword Sect members.Their jaws dropped in shock.The Flying Eagles had been beaten into a sorry state, and they had no choice but to hide from them. To be extra cautious while spying on the sect, they had stuck on multiple Camouflage Talismans on their bodies provided by Xerxes to avoid being spotted by the fairies.They were aggrieved yet couldn’t do anything, having just seen an instant kill. Moreover, it happened… just like that, without any warning whatsoever. Alex even held a girl’s hand and kicked down the door.“Quick, report this to the tactician!”“Wait, why do I feel like this girl looks familiar? Where have I seen her…?”“Ah, I remember, isn’t she Principal Henderson’s eldest daughter, Luna…”“
On the other hand, the paparazzi from SwitchTV wouldn’t be that kind and wait for Nightingale to send the footage to the boss.Whoever spilled the news first would naturally get paid first.Thus, when the Flying Eagles called their tactician, Eleanor, the people at SwitchTV had gotten the news about Alex’s survival at the same time.“Alex Rockefeller is actually alive?”“And he charged into Returning Zeal Headquarters?”“This… this is breaking news, right? Should we broadcast it?”Being enemies with Alex, the directors of SwitchTV were a little hesitant. If they broadcast the news on their platform, it would be advertising Alex and cheering him on in one way or another.If that were to happen, Michelle’s platform could recover again. Even though she was dead, the broadcaster could be replaced by many other ‘Michelle's,’ as long as Alex supported them.“Hold it down first. We’ll see how it goes,” the big boss decided. “We’re no longer in America we knew half a year ago. Since Ro
They were still speaking arrogantly, in a high and mighty manner.Seeing who had spoken, Pigsy ducked back nervously and turned to Alex. “Boss, this was the guy who tricked us and poisoned the Mystic Maiden. She wouldn’t have been injured by their sh*tty young master, otherwise.”It paused and whispered secretively, “These guys are pretty good. They’ve learned skills from ancient times. Can you handle them? D*mn it! I don’t know how these sects overcame the laws of the Wastelands. How are they so powerful?”The one leading Returning Sword Sect had clearly heard Pigsy and Alex’s conversation.He laughed and said, “Yeah, I poisoned you, master. What are you going to do about it? Is she not dead yet, huh?”The moment he finished, Alex slapped him across the face.It was way too quick. The man hadn’t even understood what had happened.The man’s body then glowed with an earthen yellow and ocean blue light, two defensive treasures of rather high quality.Besides being shocked, the ma
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
