Hailey Lawson turned her head around and almost hit Alex Rockefeller.

Raising her chin, she asked, “What do you mean by that?”

With his heart thumping, Alex hurriedly took a step back. “You have the elegance and grace of a city girl.”

“I was the belle of the village back then!” She flipped her hair and turned back.

Hailey had called upon him to give her mother-in-law a treat.

She wasn’t always the healthiest, and her condition had worsened recently, with her appetite and sleep badly affected. As days went by, she started hallucinating. The doctors had run out of ideas. Even James Coney came, but her condition kept worsening.

Out of desperation, Hailey went to Alex for help.

They got some stuff from Nine Villa before departing.

About half an hour later, they arrived at Golden Manor, an upscale neighborhood.

It was much more expensive than Maple Villa and was one of the more sought-after residential areas in California. Located just steps away was Sunset Lake, one of California’

    He immediately understood why Hailey Lawson reacted so negatively upon seeing Zack Carter.Chances were, she knew what kind of person the old man was.Alex Rockefeller felt his temper rising.But immediately, his attention was fixated on a black bracelet worn by the old man on his wrist.A wisp of energy, invisible to the naked eye, emanated from the bracelet and shrouded the old man.‘What is it?’Alex squinted and found that the energy came from one of the beads in the bracelet.Even more surprising was how it stimulated the Force in his body.A thought burst into his mind—he had to have it!Whatever the consequence!Of course, Alex was no criminal, not to mention that he couldn't possibly do it to Charles Carter’s father. He quickly suppressed his urge using all his willpower.‘Who is he?’Zack looked at Alex with animosity and even a little jealousy in his eyes.Using his Third Eye, Alex recognized Zack’s jealousy, suspicious that his daughter-in-law was cheating on hi

    “Does Charles know of this?”“Without any evidence, what can I say?”Soon after, Zack Carter came out holding a plate of sliced watermelon. Alex Rockefeller quickly suggested that they should check on the patient instead since he refused to consume food prepared by the old pervert.As for Zack, he wanted this man to leave as soon as possible. It did not matter to him if his wife was cured. After all, she lived an old age and would interfere with his search for a young bride if she was still alive.Happily agreeing to Alex’s request, he brought them over to where his sick wife was.She was lying on the bed when they came to her bedroom on the second floor. Of a small frame, she had evidently been pretty back in her younger days. Alex was shocked to find out what had happened to the old lady.A ghostly aura could be seen shrouding her body, just like what happened to Hailey Lawson.That explained everything. She must have caught it from her mother-in-law previously.She wasn’t si

    “What did you just say? Who are you to disrespect Doctor Yoke, America’s Imperial Doctor, like that!”Jim Sabinsky’s face turned beet red in rage. He could not accept any form of disrespect directed at his mentor. “You are done for. I am calling the police now! You need to be put in jail so you’d learn not to cheat and con innocent citizens.”Even Hailey Lawson could not stop him from dialing up the authorities.Shaking his head, Alex took out his phone and punched in a number.Before Jim could tell the operator on the other end of the line of his issue, Alex handed him his cell phone and said, “Your mentor wants to speak to you.”“Wait a minute.”Jim looked at him in bewilderment. Surely, it wasn’t his mentor on the line? How could he, America’s Imperial Doctor, recklessly reveal his phone number to a stranger? Alex turned on the speaker mode, and Wallace Yoke’s angry voice quickly came through. “Jim Sabinsky, you fool! Did you do anything to Mr. Rockefeller? Get on your knees

    “You are wishing for my mother’s death, aren’t you?” Nancy Carter was livid.“I was just stating the truth.” Alex Rockefeller heeded no attention to Nancy. “Now that I am here, she will live.”“Who knows if you are deceiving us?” Nancy retorted. Meanwhile, Wallace Yoke checked the old lady’s pulse again. For three full minutes, he remained motionless with a solemn expression on his face. Finally, he shook his head. “I am sorry, I don’t think I can do anything here.”Alex told Hailey Lawson, “Why don’t you leave everything to Doctor Yoke and me? Wait for us outside the bedroom.”“Sounds good.” He escorted a scowling Nancy and Zack out. Hailey left as well.Jim Sabinsky wanted to remain and help, although, in actual fact, he was waiting for a chance to expose Alex’s ruse.“Sure, why not?” Alex grinned.Three men and an old lady were the only ones left in the bedroom.“I am actually protecting you by not letting you treat her,” Alex told Jim.He pointed at the old lady, seeing

    To kill the little demon on the spot, all he needed was the Thunder Palm Mantra.Alex Rockefeller changed his mind after seeing the insignia since he wanted to find out who was behind the old lady’s possession.Whoosh!He muttered an incantation to immobilize the little demon and used a red thread found in the bedroom and tied it up into a knot.Also known as a Red Shackle, it was an extremely effective move to encase supernatural beings.It was a bizarre sight for Wallace Yoke and Jim Sabinsky, as the little demon, as tall as a four-year-old kid, shrunk rapidly and vanished into a tiny red knot. Alex then fastened the knot on his belt.Both the mentor and his mentee were shocked.“You… captured the… the demon?” Jim stammered and looked at Alex in awe.Alex nodded. “I will deal with it later.”In actual fact, he wanted to look for the little demon’s owner after nightfall.Wallace suddenly looked at Alex with a twinkle in his eyes and eagerly asked, “Mr. Rockefeller, are you p

    Alex Rockefeller shook his head and smiled. “Doctor Yoke, these are nothing but obsolete facts now. I met an expert from Switzerland yesterday claiming that our traditional medicine is a joke and cannot be compared to the Korean art of healing.”“Lies! Lies! They derived their knowledge from our expertise. How dare they claim to be the better of the two?” Wallace York exclaimed in anger.Jim Sabinsky chimed in, “They actually applied for heritage status too and claimed that our knowledge originated from them.”“Damn! What a load of nonsense!” Riled up, Wallace was about to give Jim the boot.It was a shocking sight to see Wallace, an elderly man, cursing and swearing in a sudden outburst.“It has been centuries since we saw the existence of Dazzle’s apostles. Now that you are here, we need everyone to know of the arrival of one of Dazzle’s apostles!” Wallace continued, “And as a follower of the Witch Doctor, I pay my respects to the Immortal Doctor.”And he lowered his body to kn

    Too engrossed with the sight, Alex Rockefeller did not realize that others had arrived.He looked down and saw three women, all dressed in black.Their expressions were definitely filled with anger as they glared at him.More importantly, these women were fighters, with the strongest one of Advanced-Royal rank.The other two were of Intermediate-Royal rank, at the very least.“Oh my! I wonder why Zendaya needed such powerful people to be her bodyguards?”Just as a confused Alex tried to make sense of the situation, Zendaya, who overheard the commotion, leaped from her lying position on the yoga mat. She looked around and saw Alex right outside her window.She was shocked, but Alex quickly discovered that she had indeed something to do with the little demon.‘Weird. What could’ve happened between a popular celebrity like her and an old lady?’Seeing Alex’s inaction and his continuous staring into the window, the women below became enraged. The Advanced-Royal ranked one stomped

    Even though the paparazzi apologized publicly after that, the damage had been done. Zendaya had to deal with the repercussions of negative press and a dwindling reputation.The female bodyguard snickered. “Every paparazzi we caught said the same thing. Do you think we will believe you? If you do not cooperate on a count of three, do not blame us for what will come.”“One…“Two…”Alex Rockefeller shook his head.“Three! Get him!”Another bodyguard jammed the baton onto Alex’s arm. This wasn’t the first time it happened; Zendaya’s immense fame had attracted quite a few unscrupulous characters.Yet, it was the same outcome. One taste of the taser was all that was needed to teach these stalkers a lesson they would never forget.A moment passed, and instantly she felt something was amiss; Alex seemed not to be affected by the taser.She tried a few more times, but nothing changed.“This can’t be, I charged it just this morning!” she muttered under her breath.“Why don’t you find

    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!"

    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
