Phenomenal Alex Cole Chapter 110 - Cloudshroud Mountain
The light in the sky had not yet broken through the forest canopy when Alex Cole opened his eyes. He had not slept the entire night. Instead, he had spent hours sitting by the shallow pond in the heart of the Vale of Echoes, watching as mist swirled over the surface like the breath of something ancient.Elder Ruvan’s voice broke through the silence. “The Vale is watching you.”Alex did not turn around. “I know.”Elder Ruvan walked closer, hands folded behind his back. He was not a man of many expressions, but even he was struggling to conceal the intrigue behind his eyes.“You have passed through the Gate of Silence. The Vale does not grant access to just anyone. The seal you awakened yesterday… it belongs to a path no one has walked for over three centuries.”Alex slowly rose to his feet. His robe was soaked from the dew on the grass, but he didn’t mind. The pendant that Freya had given him had disappeared the moment it merged into the seal’s altar. His chest still carried the warmth
Phenomenal Alex Cole Chapter 111 - Corrupted qi
Alex Cole moved swiftly through the woods at the edge of the Vale, the scroll from Elder Ruvan secured tightly in his inner robe. His steps were silent, and his thoughts focused.The path to Cloudshroud Mountain was narrow and almost invisible to the untrained eye. Moss-covered rocks and twisting vines tried to hide the trail from outsiders. But Alex could now see the energy veins beneath the ground, the pulsing flow of spiritual current guiding his every step.The knowledge that had entered his body in the Cavern of Reflection was not like anything he had studied in the medicine village. It had embedded itself into his meridians, flowing like a second breath inside him. His eyes saw more than they should have. His skin felt more than it ever had. His sense of energy, balance, and danger had heightened to levels he never experienced before.But this power came with a warning.He could now sense presences even when they were far away.And there was one such presence following him.He
Phenomenal Alex Cole Chapter 112 - Returns home with nothing
Alex’s fingers brushed the petal of the White Snake Flower.A pulse ran up his arm.Warm at first, then sharp.It wasn’t just energy. It was recognition.The flower knew who he was.The black roots around it retracted completely, curling back into the earth like snakes returning to a nest. The petals, now pure white again, opened slowly. They gave off a faint shimmer that danced in the mist. It was unlike anything Alex had seen or studied. No drawing or description in the medicine village matched this exact glow.He plucked the flower gently.There was no resistance. No flash. No pain. The stem separated smoothly from the earth.Alex held it in his hand, staring at it for a few seconds.Then he turned and walked back toward the archway.The Shadow Temple men had vanished. Not a trace of their presence remained. Even their corrupted qi had dissolved into the wind.Nara was still standing where she had been earlier, her face pale and her breath unsteady.“You really did it,” she said. H
Phenomenal Alex Cole Chapter 113 - Heavy Chest
Alex Cole stepped off the transport array, the dense energy of Trim City brushing against his senses like a stale fog. The lights were bright, the air thick with modern noise and city dust. For a moment, he stood still, his robes rustling in the breeze. The journey back from the mountains had been quiet, but his thoughts were anything but.He had returned empty-handed.The White Snake Flower was gone. Used. Spent.Lord Walton still lay on his sickbed.And Alex hadn’t rested in two days.Just as he turned toward the main road, his jade communicator buzzed inside his robe. He glanced at it, the familiar pulse of his master’s call lighting up the screen.He hesitated, then answered.“Disciple,” Master Dustin’s voice rang out, as calm and collected as always. “You're back in the city.”Alex nodded. “Just arrived.”“Good. I need you to attend something.”Alex narrowed his eyes. “Old man, I haven’t even….” He then connected the dopt that Dustin was aware that he had met someone at the black
Phenomenal Alex Cole Chapter 114 - Mediocre Doctor
The noise in the hall died down as Reed stepped confidently onto the stage, Thea by his side.The announcer cleared his throat and raised the mic. “Please welcome our keynote guest for tonight’s Mericania Medical Assembly Mr. Reed, representing the Reigns Medical Group.”Applause followed, but it was polite, nothing more.Reed let go of Thea’s hand, straightened his jacket, and walked to the podium like he owned the room. His eyes scanned the crowd, a crooked smirk tugging at the edge of his mouth. His gaze lingered just a little longer when it passed over Alex Cole standing silently near the back wall.Thea took a seat near the front. She crossed her legs and folded her arms, her face unreadable.Reed adjusted the mic.He didn’t speak right away.He just looked around, letting the silence stretch until people leaned forward in their chairs.“Good evening,” he finally said. “I was told I’d be giving a speech to a room full of Mericania’s finest. Men and women of honor. Of skill. Of re
Phenomenal Alex Cole Chapter 115
Alex Cole walked down the quiet sidewalk near the southern quarter, hands in his robe pockets, his expression unreadable. Streetlights cast soft glows over the pavement, and traffic had finally thinned after the chaos of the medical assembly.He didn’t regret a word he said.Reed Clove had opened his mouth like a fool and left with it shut. That was enough for Alex.He turned down a corner, about to head toward his temporary apartment when his communicator buzzed again.He pulled it out and glanced at the caller ID.Hannah Stone.He stared at the name for a second.Thea Walton’s right hand.Her personal assistant, handler, and rumor had it, her attack dog in a dress.Alex debated ignoring it, but curiosity got the better of him.He accepted the call.“Alex Cole,” came the clipped, polished voice on the other end. “You certainly stirred up the hall tonight.”He didn’t answer.Hannah didn’t seem to care.“Lord Walton has asked me to extend a formal invitation. Dinner. Tomorrow evening,
Phenomenal Alex Cole Chapter 116 - Ten dates
Alex's phone was ringing, He checked the screen.Tina Snow.He narrowed his eyes.It had been a while since her name appeared.The last time they spoke, she threw an engagement dinner for a man who never proposed, waved around a childhood promise like it was holy scripture, and demanded marriage like she was issuing a royal decree.He let the call ring for a few seconds.Then he answered it.He didn’t speak first.“Took you long enough,” Tina’s voice came through, smooth and sweet — but lined with something sharper underneath. “I was starting to think you forgot your fiancée.”Alex didn’t sigh, didn’t groan, didn’t even blink.“Didn’t realize we were calling each other that now,” he said plainly.“We always were,” Tina replied without missing a beat. “You just forgot. I remembered for both of us.”Alex said nothing.Tina’s voice dropped slightly in tone . not flirtatious, not playful. Calculated.“Let’s skip the games, Alex. I’ve thought about it. You’re busy. You’re proud. You don’t

Victor Miller adjusted his tie for the third time.“Relax, dear,” Rena whispered, smoothing the front of his jacket. “You look fine. Handsome as ever.”Victor gave a nervous chuckle, still scanning the office around him. “Raymond Bourne inviting us? Just like that? No warning? No message? Hah… something big’s about to drop.”Rena clutched her purse tighter, her earrings catching the soft overhead light as she glanced around. “This office is gorgeous. Look at that sculpture! Is that real bronze?”They sat in a long, cold corridor outside Raymond Bourne’s top-floor executive office. The carpet was red. The walls were matte black, and two armored guards stood at the elevator like statues.Victor checked his watch again. Twenty-nine minutes.Still no sign of their host.He looked over at Rena and whispered, “You think he wants to buy in? Like a joint venture? Maybe merge the cargo line?”Rena’s eyes glittered. “Or maybe he wants to use your warehouse network for his trade division. You’ve

Vivian Cole’s heels clicked against the polished marble floors as she walked briskly toward the grand entrance of the event hall. Her sharp green dress hugged her frame perfectly, and her expression was a mask of calm curiosity though her stomach twisted with unease. James and Fredrick Cole followed close behind, the former adjusting his cufflinks while the latter muttered curses under his breath.Security had come to them not five minutes earlier, murmuring about a disturbance at the entrance involving “a man in black” and a group of men who looked like trouble. One of the guards even whispered something about the Mafia, which was ridiculous, of course.At least, they hoped it was.As they turned the corner and stepped into the wide foyer of the building, they paused, almost in unison.There he was.Alex Cole.Their nephew.Dressed in a matte-black tailored suit with a long overcoat draped elegantly over his shoulders, Alex stood like a storm in waiting shoulders squared, chin slig
Chapter 141 - Vengeance
Before the party started,At Alex Cole’s place Alex paced across the length of the room, arms crossed over his chest, jaw tight with restrained fury. The protest outside his mansion had just dispersed. His aunt thought she could really play in his face.And he would not let that go.Alex leaned against the marble counter of the kitchen island, watching Carl with quiet calculation. Dressed in a fitted black suit, he looked more like a strategist than a lawyer today, but that’s what Carl needed, someone cold, smart, and as ruthless.“They used your name,” Carl said finally, his tone low but pointed. “They’ve been hiding behind your reputation for years. Free PR. More clients. Bigger projects. But now they’re hiding their sins behind your walls.”Alex stopped pacing. “They think just because they share my blood, they can drag my name through the mud and get away with it.”Carl arched a brow. “Your name isn’t mud. But if you let them do it again, it will be.”There was a pause. The wei

“Sister, you know my Jacob was the one that managed to find that rascal, please do not forget to recommend him to your husband when the promotion comes up at the company,” James Cole faced his sister.Jacob had not been interested in the company nor did he want to run it, he had been interested in the automobile business. SInce James and his wife could not afford to set one up for him due to their lavish lifestyle, they found a job for him where Vivian Cole’s husband worked as the executive general manager at the headquarters.James might be a spoilt little kid but he had offered to work his way through the top by first working as a junior sales rep. His parents had tried to talk him out of it, asking him to take a breed but he told them to set up his own shop for him if they could not bear him working for someone else.“Hmm, that is true, one of the head staff is resigning and that position is open, we could fix him there. Her pay is about ten times what he is earning right now, an

“Are you insane? Why did you just ask to leave just like that?” Elias nagged at Vonn who entered the hotel room alone.They had planned that if Thea was intoxicated, Vonn would bring her up and Elias would help film all activities.“I cannot just do that to her. It is not right”Elias scoffed then he sat opposite Vonn, “I agree with you, but you know what else is not right? Your brother taking your father’s empire. You know Riss is already your father’s favourite and the women love his aura. Take a look at King, he charms women without having to do too much but take a look at yourself. You are the worst Smith brother.”“You rebelled against your father and became a general instead of being just a doctor like he wanted and your reputation with women? That is even worse.”“ Your darn anger issue didn't even let you learn how to make a woman happy and you think you should do things the right way? The odds are already against you.”“That is the most feasible way you could have gotten that
Chapter 138 - Atrocity
“Mrs Gisele Cole and her husband.” The leader spoke up at once.His assumption was right, after she came to his place yelling alongside her son. Only she could pull that. He would have been surprised if they had given him another name. His father’s relatives never failed to show their true behaviour.After taking over his father’s company and splitting most of his properties amongst themselves, they still dared to issue some debts on his parents name.“I am going to ask another question and you must answer me honestly. Who is the one that is truly owing you money or is this some facade My Uncle and his wife has put you all to?” He demanded in a sifter tone.All of them were still shivering on the floor, as they feared what may happen to them. They also knew that lying would not help at all, so they decided to come all clean to him.“Well, since Mrs Gisele took over the company from her husband, we have been running through some financial crisis, they have not paid our salaries for abo

Alex woke up to several voices right in front of his door, at this point, he was already regretting that he had filled his actual address in the car dealer’s place. It was like that made everyone have access to his house.He turned his side on his bed, till the yelling got worse. “Come out here. You son of a Debtor.”“How can you be living in such a grand place when your family still has a lot to settle us with? Do you think you deserve that silly sleep of yours?”“We know you can hear us, you better come out at once before we vandalize your house.”Several of them hurled insults and threats at him. That caused him to get up from his bed.He peeped down to see what was going down, then he saw some people in the little crowd by his downstairs holding placards with his photos and his late parents photo on it with the caption, “Pay us our money and end capitalism,"Alex scoffed, knowing that his aunty had put them up to his trick but of course he needed to collect proof, so he put on pro
Chapter 136 - Chastity
“The War God got some balls to actually walk in here and ask us to come compete against each other in order to win her hand in marriage. I have always known that she was a bold and prideful woman but I never knew it was to this extent.” Vonn complained bitterly to his brothers after they got inside.“I just think you didn't expect to meet a woman that would match upon your pride.” King said with a smirk on his face. “Did you see your face when Riss told us, she walked into the room. You looked like they told you Mom rose up from the dead.”“That is not supposed to be a joke,” Riss said in a stern voice as he didn’t buy the silly joke King made about their late mother. “ Vonn is not entirely wrong, that woman is prideful and I must teach her to know her place right after I make her my wife. Who does she think she is to be speaking to us like she is the prize?”“But she is indeed the prize. Father intends to give his fortune to her if she marries any of us, so what is your point?” King
Chapter 135 - Lawfully.
A slow silence settled over the ornate hallway, as Thea Walton’s words reverberated off the walls. Her piercing gaze moved from one brother to the next, waiting—expecting—a scramble. Maybe even a power grab.But what she got was something entirely different.Riss Smith, the eldest and the quietest of the trio, took a step forward. His face was unreadable, cold and unmoving, as though he were carved from marble. He looked Thea straight in the eye, not with awe or admiration, but something cooler… more calculating.“No,” he said flatly.Thea blinked. “Excuse me?”“I said no,” Riss repeated, his voice calm but final. “We won’t be competing for your affection or favor under your terms. We’ll do this among ourselves, the way brothers should.”King’s jaw tightened. Vonn shifted where he stood.Thea’s brows furrowed slightly. She hadn’t expected this especially not from the most stoic of the three.King stepped forward next, standing shoulder to shoulder with Riss. “I may be cocky, but I’m n
Chapter 134 - She is here
The atmosphere inside the Smith Mansion was tense with unsaid words and rising testosterone. The grandiose living room, adorned with gold accents and oil paintings of past generations, echoed with the subtle sound of polished shoes pacing on marble. King Smith strolled in with a noticeable swagger, the corner of his lips curled with a self-satisfied smirk.He threw his jacket carelessly onto the velvet couch and plopped down like he owned the entire world.“Where have you been?” Vonn asked, arms crossed, standing in front of the fireplace. His deep voice vibrated with restrained irritation.King didn’t answer right away. Instead, he reached for the crystal decanter on the glass table, poured himself a drink, and sipped it slowly. Theatrics. He wanted to be seen. He wanted them to notice.“I just came back from seeing her,” King finally said, deliberately emphasizing the pronoun as if Thea Walton had become some sort of divine entity to be worshipped.Vonn’s nostrils flared. “You went
