Alex Rockefeller did not accept Charles Carter’s invitation to the dinner.

He already had an appointment with Miranda Finn to treat her unspeakable ailment.

Also, he felt a deep sense of guilt whenever he saw Charles.

Perhaps it was the previous incident where he slept on the same bed as Hailey in Michigan.

Or at that time, perhaps he had to cleanse the aphrodisiac drug from Hailey’s body.

Or perhaps even the accidental embrace that happened just moments ago.

He was surprised to find out that they had so many intimate encounters. It was too risky, he thought. There seemed to be an urge brewing in his body.

‘I have got to keep my distance from Hailey.’

Alex thought to himself as he dialed Miranda’s number on his phone.

He prepared some pills last night. Using his Chi at the same time, it should be an easy job treating her ailment.

However, Miranda said, “Oh, my dear Rockefeller, I am so sorry. I am stuck at work. Can we do it tonight? I will call you again later.”

Alex agreed

    Overhearing the phone conversation, Alex Rockefeller’s expression darkened.After the previous encounter, the Assex family had stopped for a while but returned to wreak havoc, just like cockroaches that wouldn't stop appearing even as they were exterminated.Both husband and wife rushed home as quickly as they could.Upon arriving at the doors, they heard Claire Assex’s wailing.She sat on the floor with a swollen left face, messy hair, and a lost slipper.Beatrice Assex stood haughtily by the side, cleaver in her hand.Obviously, she had been beaten as well, with blood streaming down her nose.“If you come any closer, you are all going down with me!” she yelled.Dorothy and Alex entered the house at that very moment.“Are you okay, mom?”“How could you, Uncle!”Dorothy teared up seeing Claire’s swollen face, while Alex went over to Beatrice and removed the cleaver from her grasp. He gently pulled her behind. “Stand down and get your nosebleed stopped. I will do the fighti

    “Impossible! “How did he do it?”Emma Assex cried out in surprise, unable to accept what had happened. This was never supposed to happen! Things should have turned out the other way!Alex Rockefeller knocked out the groaning bodyguard with a kick and looked at Emma condescendingly with a smirk on his face. “So these are the strong and powerful fighters you hired? Gosh, are you sure they’re not from the film studio? I wonder if the Assexes are too strapped for cash to hire actual fighters after losing the opportunity to work with Waylon Realty?”He was humorous, assertive, and dominant.Madame Joanne and the rest watched on in fear.Beatrice Assex was shaken up, though she started to think that Alex looked like Mask, her secret lover.‘No, no, it can’t be! Mask is from the authorities. It can’t be him!’ she shook her head.“Outrageous!” Madame Joanne trembled in anger. After spending so much money hiring the fighters, they turned out to be complete weaklings. She glared at

    Alex Rockefeller approached them slowly, one step at a time.Seeing the bodyguard with a broken leg on the floor, Anderson Assex was terrified out of his wits. ‘Crazy! He’s crazy! No, I don’t want to be wheelchair-bound for the rest of my life!’Immediately, he chose the first option and kneeled in front of Claire Assex.Claire’s eyes bulged wide in astonishment.Meanwhile, Beatrice, still holding onto Claire, stole a glimpse at Alex. He seemed a little different today, a little manlier than usual. Just like Mask… no, no, it was a mere illusion.“Do it, mom!” she said to Claire.Smack!With tears streaming down her face, Claire slapped Anderson. “We will leave this very house in three days,” she cried. “After that, we will sever our ties with you!”“Great! I look forward to that!” Madame Joanne leaped in joy.“Go live under a bridge, you hobos!” Anderson roared.Right after they left, Claire collapsed in Beatrice’s arms and started wailing, crying, and cursing at Anderson.A

    An attractive woman stood right there.It wasn’t his wife, Dorothy, but his sister-in-law, Beatrice Assex!His eyes opened wide in horror as he quickly pushed her away.“It’s you?”Bam!Beatrice took a few steps back and slammed into the refrigerator.“You shoved me!”Beatrice exclaimed while looking at Alex. Usually, she would have immediately admonished Alex, but now she behaved like a frail woman, entirely out of the ordinary.Alex retraced his hands awkwardly and said, “Sorry, I thought you were Dorothy.”Oddly enough, Beatrice was not mad but covered Alex’s nose and lips with her hand instead.Alex was taken aback. They never had such an intimate encounter.Except for that night, of course, where she came onto him after being drugged.“What are you trying to do?”He pushed her hand away.Beatrice suddenly asked, “Are you Mask?”Alex was shocked and kept thinking to himself, wondering what he did to expose his identity. Before he could deny it, Beatrice continued,

    “Okay, okay, you should go and get prepared for tomorrow. We'll be signing a contract with Roadways and Bridges Inc. after all,” said Alex. His eyes shone with a ruthless twinkle.‘Suffer the consequences of pissing me off, Madame Joanne.’Dinner that night had the Assex sisters in tears.Dorothy Assex said to her mother, Claire, “Mom, this is what we call real food! The ones you cooked were inedible at best.”Beatrice’s stomach was chock full of food as she looked silently at Alex.After swallowing down the last piece of roasted pork in gravy, Claire licked her lips and said, “I came from a wealthy family and never had to do any household chores. Your father used to say that I should have been a hand model. Consider yourselves lucky that I even cooked for you!”She then turned to Alex. “Jer… Alex, why don’t you wash the dishes? Also, you’re still unemployed, right? Then it’s set. You’ll be cooking for us from now on.”Claire returned to her true self after having a sumptuous me

    Alex took a glance at Emma and thought, ‘What a coincidence.’He walked to the sofa with Dorothy in hand and wiped the sofa slowly with some tissue before turning to her. “Come sit here, wifey. Mr. Hawk is still having a meeting now. We’ll just wait here till he’s done, then we’ll be able to sign the contract.”Dorothy nodded and sat on the sofa politely.Alex took a bottle of water out of his bag and opened the cap before handing it to her.The two acted as if no one was around, as if Emma and Ethan were nothing but thin air.Emma couldn’t hold back her anger any longer. She stood up and approached the two. “Dorothy, I asked you a question. Are you deaf? What contract are you here for? Who even told you to come here to sign a contract?” Dorothy took a few sips of water and handed the bottle to Alex. “Do you want some too?”“Sure!” Alex placed his lips where Dorothy’s lips were on the bottle and drank some water as well.Emma was enraged. She felt like something was going horr

    The two remained seated, ignoring every word Ethan said.Ethan furrowed his eyebrows and his expression turned cold. “Hey, you two. I’m asking nicely for you to leave. I said that South Cali Structures would no longer be working with you.”Emma smiled brightly, still acting as cocky as ever. “Did you hear that? Why are you still here? Are you really that shameless? Oh, right, I heard you guys changed the company name to something like Dorothy-Alex Constructions and don’t have any working capital, so that means you’d go bankrupt if you don’t earn some money! Hey loser, Rockefeller. You should break it off with her while you still can. Why don’t you work as my slave? I might pity you if I’m in a good mood!”Alex replied calmly, “I think it’s still a little early to say who will be pitied in the end.”He then turned to Ethan. “Ethan Hawks, right? You’re not in charge of South Cali Structures just yet. Let’s wait till your father arrives. Only he has a say in this.”Ethan was enraged.

    Emma’s eyes widened in disbelief as she watched Alex and Dorothy walk into Thomas’ office.She immediately turned to Ethan. “Baby, what’s happening? What contract is your father signing with Dorothy?”Ethan shook his head. “I’m not sure too. I’m not that familiar with how things work in my dad’s company.”Emma huffed frustratedly. “Dorothy’s damn company used to be one of our subsidiary companies. They’re this close to going bankrupt. If your dad does work with such a small company, he’d run into a lot of problems during the process. You have to convince your dad, or else it’d be too late!”“Uhm… yeah, I know, I know.” Ethan dismissed her remarks, clearly bothered by his father’s expression earlier. He could tell something was amiss.Alex and Dorothy left the CEO’s office after just ten minutes. The contract had been signed successfully.Before they came, Charles had already discussed with Thomas about the details of the contract. They had even settled the terms and conditions be

    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
