“I remember now. This middle-aged guy is the CEO of Pegasus International, Edgar Shepherd. The one proposing is Felix Shepherd who’s been harassing Lady Dorothy for quite a while. Well, isn’t this great? Felix’s father is groveling before Alex.”

“How could Alex have the CEO of Pegasus International kneel for him?”

This was a mystery everyone was itching to unravel.

Edgar immediately ordered Jay to hand him the check they had prepared earlier. Edgar handed it to Alex with the utmost respect and said, “Master Alex, this is twenty million dollars. Please accept it! It’s just a little gift. I won’t get up until you accept this!”

Maya was shocked once again, watching Alex puzzledly.

Alex stared at the check emotionlessly.

Suddenly, Alex’s phone started ringing. It was a call from Lex Gunther.

Alex took a glance in Edgar’s direction and picked up the phone calmly. “Hey, Lord Lex!”

Upon hearing the name, cold sweat trickled down Edgar’s forehead. He raised the check higher, his face f

    Dorothy stared at her sister coldly.She had witnessed everything back in the meeting room.Beatrice had brought Felix to her company to propose to Dorothy in public. Not only did it hurt and insult Alex, but it extremely humiliated Dorothy as well.How would she appear in public now?Dorothy looked up and saw Alex walking in. “I won’t be interfering with this. She’s all yours.”Alex’s deadly cold gaze landed on Beatrice.“Sis, you’re my sister! How could you do this to me?”Without hesitation, Alex slapped her hard across the face, causing one of her cheeks to swell up.Dorothy froze. However, she immediately averted her gaze—she decided to not look at Beatrice.Beatrice looked like she was about to cry as her mouth fell open.Merciless, Alex slapped her on the other cheek.Beatrice’s eyes were filled with fear and her body started to tremble. This version of Alex was unfamiliar to her; she was terrified of him. This was no longer the useless loser who slaved away in their

    It was 1:30 P.M. by the time Alex arrived at Hell’s Angels owned by Thousand Miles Conglomerate.A few underlings were waiting at the door. As soon as they noticed Alex, they bowed down respectfully. “Welcome, Master Alex!”Alex was starting to get used to this title and nodded. “Where’s Lord Lex?”“Lord Lex is inside. After you, sir.”Lex looked much better compared to when a demon was draining his Chi and blood. His cheeks were slightly flushed and he seemed to be quite energized as well.Alex noticed a strong aroma of traditional medicine and could miraculously tell which herbs and in what ratios were used just from scent… This was another ability that came with the Ultimate Book of Medicine.The medicine included ginseng, wild celery, chinese knotweed, saussurea, and many other expensive herbs. It seemed that Lex was taking this medicine to help restore blood flow.However, the ratios seemed a bit off—it was too concentrated. That was why Lex’s face was fairly flushed.Upon

    “Oh? Azure, you actually invited Jarsurya of Obloha Nuvem?” Lex turned around, surprised by the appearance of the monk. A bright smile appeared on his face as he immediately showed his utmost respect towards the monk. “Ah, Jarsurya the Venerable One! Thank you for coming to my humble home. My place isn’t much, I apologize.”Alex had never seen Lex behave so respectfully.He froze and thought, ‘Was this monk some sort of powerful figure?’Upon closer look, he noticed something.The monk had a fairly strong Chi—he really had a certain level of power. This was the first time Alex had seen anyone like him and couldn’t help but feel curious. He wanted to look into the monk’s Chi even more.As he finally had a good look at him, he felt a slight sense of disappointment.This monk indeed trained his Chi. However, his wasn’t as strong as Alex’s. Compared to Alex’s Chi, the monk’s was akin to a mere ant. Alex had the help of his ancestor’s Chi to help train him. Despite already using u

    Both Lex and Azure’s eyes widened—they couldn’t believe their eyes.Jarsurya took a brief glance at Alex, hoping to see Alex in absolute shock and disbelief as well. However, the young man was still eating chips, chuckling as he watched his work like a circus performance.The monk became so angry that he almost made a mistake in his spell. He immediately calmed himself and shouted once to control the talisman to land on the spot Waltz was bitten.The talisman became dull as soon as it landed on the wound. In just a flash, the talisman broke into shreds. The black spot on Waltz’s thigh had become lighter as well.“Waltz, how do you feel?” Azure asked Waltz worriedly.Waltz nodded lightly. “A little better.”However, she still looked quite ill and upset.Jarsurya said, “The poison in her body is quite strong. Even with my powers, it is impossible to remove all the poison in one day. However, you don’t have to worry. I’ll be able to cure her within a week.”Azure immediately rushe

    “Ah! A ghost!”“Help!”Everyone started screaming on the top of their lungs—no average man would be able to stand such a horrifying scene.The skull formed by black smoke controlled by Master Vaudou. With a loud shout, the skull bit onto Azure’s arm. Although Azure was able to take a few hits with his beast-like body, he was no match against the bite of this evil spirit.Azure started screaming in pain and felt his soul trembling within his body.The evil spirit drained both a human’s blood and soul. This caused Azure immense pain.Since Jarsurya was invited by Azure, he couldn’t just stand there and do nothing. He howled at the spirit and said, “Don’t you dare hurt the innocent, you demon! You give me no choice but to get rid of thee!”Jarsurya pulled out another talisman and spat his Chi onto it. The lettering on the talisman glowed brightly in mid-air.“Take that!”The talisman was thrown at the spirit.Alex was watching attentively and curiously from the sidelines. Althou

    It was a piece of chip.However, this small piece of chip was concentrated with his Chi. After spitting it into the evil spirit’s mouth, the spirit’s mouth was sealed tight and it became paralyzed as if an immobility spell was cast on it.“Huh, what happened?” Everyone was stunned.The spirit had never stopped mid-attack.Master Vaudou shook the spirit’s bottle vigorously, shouting over and over again. However, the spirit was ignoring every command, as if it could no longer listen to him.Alex spoke up, “Such an evil spirit. You must’ve taken so many lives. I can’t let you roam around this earth any longer.He bit into his finger on his right hand and drew a symbol on his left palm with blood. This symbol seemed simple, yet it was fairly ancient.He slapped the symbol onto the spirit, causing a bright light to snake from within with a thunderous roar.This was one of the skills that Alex had required to defeat spirits—the Thunder Palm Mantra.The tall spirit screamed in agony

    Alex stared at Jarsurya. The latter was just as respectful towards him as Lex was. However, Alex shook his head and said, “No, I’m not.”Jarsurya slapped his own thigh and exclaimed, “That’s right! The Thunder Palm Mantra of the Sanctuary of Light can’t convert the spirit’s energy for their own use. Mr. Rockefeller is practically a demigod. You’re much stronger than them.”Alex was speechless. This monk may be old, but he is great at kissing *ss compared to Lex Gunther.However, Alex decided not to explain much. He took a glance at Azure and said, “You guys can deal with everything else. I’ll check up on Waltz now.”Azure was extremely jealous upon hearing those words. But he was powerless compared to Alex’s weird and mysterious methods.Moreover, he had been bitten by the evil spirit as well, so his condition was much worse than Waltz’s. But Alex was not acquainted with him at all, so it was only normal that he’d cure a beauty like Waltz first.“What happened outside?” Waltz ask

    Jarsurya bid his goodbyes and left Saintville.Alex pulled Lex to the side as he had wanted to speak to him alone. “I’d like you to help me with something.”Lex bowed and said, “Yes, master.”Alex pulled Lex back up and said, “It’s fine, you’re getting on with age so you don’t have to bow every single time you talk to me! Oh, and stop calling me master. All these titles just confuse me! Just call me Mr. Rockefeller from now on!”“Yes, master...Mr. Rockefeller.”“By the way, here’s your card.”Alex was returning a black bank card with ten billion dollars inside. Lex was shocked. “This is your pocket change! How could you not have money in this economy?”To which Alex replied, “I’ve already transferred 30 million into my account. This card is just way too eye-catching and ten billion is too much. If my wife or mom ever finds out about it, I wouldn’t know how to explain! Besides, if I really need more money, I’ll inform you.”Lex nodded. “Sorry, that is very inconsiderate of me! M

    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

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 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.

    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

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
