Alex smiled and caressed his head."I used to be human. But now, I don't really know which category to classify myself as," He whispered, watching Luz's serious expression, while feeling amused."You're obviously not totally recovered, but you're already up, walking around the entire place. You're not normal," Luz said, making Alex smile.Almost immediately, Alex began to cough, his face constricting in pain.He quickly wiped the blood and dark residues away from his lips, making Luz's frown deepen."We need to buy those two herbs, so that you will start recovering bit by bit. However, before you totally recover, your hell's scythe technique needs to advance in level. So, you need to find a virgin that will help you do that. Finding a virgin to dual cultivate with and absorb yin energy from her is the only way to seal that hole in your heart. Do you guys have a market where they sell virgins?" Luz asked, making everyone roar with laughter."A market where they sell humans? We don't li
Alex sat in the back of the black sedan driving them to the market where the auction house is located."We still have two hours before the time for the auction. Are you sure you don't want us to park somewhere so that you can relax a bit?" Tajana asked, looking at Alex who was currently dressed in an expensive black suit, from his special designer.Alex raised his hand to confirm the time from the watch on his wrist, which was made of gold and platinum, and studded with diamonds."No need for that, just drive to the market square. I heard that this yellow river square is the one market in southeast Asia that sells genuine spiritual items. I would like to see the legendary shops being operated by monks and see which treasures are obtainable there," Alex calmly said, staring at Luz who was watching an action movie on his new tablet phone."Sir, we're here," Shadow announced, making Luz switch off the tablet and insert it into his backpack which Emrys was carrying for him."Wow, the aura
Alex immediately teleported to the area, only to see a well dressed young master with several guards, stepping on Luz's fingers.Luz was on his knees and was holding a stick of fish kebab in his right arm which the young man was stepping on."Ahhh!" Luz cried out again, wondering why his father instructed him never to use his powers to defend himself no matter what, to avoid exposing his identity. But at this point, he doesn't really care about being found out."How dare you bump into me and smear my expensive suit with your dirty food?" He asked, increasing pressure on Luz's fingers."Luz!" Alex roared like a wounded lion, kicking the young master away like a cannonball.The young man flew up and crashed into a nearby store selling dumplings, making everyone scream in shock."Does he know the identity of that wicked young master Su Mu? His family will definitely come after him," an old woman said, panicking." He should have just apologized and taken his son away!" Another whispered,
Alex looked at him with one of his brows cocked, feeling amused."Su Mu, Little one," the white haired old man whispered in horror, rushing to Su Mu. He quickly transmitted energy to Su Mu, healing his face and helping him to recover."And you, who do you think you are to attack someone from the Su family? Only us are allowed to bully people, never the other way," he roared furiously, rushing towards Alex."I see where he's got his attitude from. Don't tempt me to exterminate the entire Su family. It will be a waste to uproot such an important family from Hong Kong," Alex said coldly, applying more pressure to stall the man."Ha! Big words! How presumptuous of you to think about destroying our Su family!" The old man roared, rushing towards Alex.The old man immediately began to sweat, making him realize how powerful the young man before him was."Who are you?" He asked in shock."You're not qualified to know my name. You're way too young and useless," Alex whispered coldly, applying
"A little clueless boy? Really? At his age I was already a well known figure in the army. How about my little son? If this big fool before me is a little boy, how about my poor son who was just happily enjoying one of the few days I let him come outside? Of course, his guards are to blame for leaving him alone to wander in the market," Alex said, making the old man quickly nod, finding an opening to shift blame."That's right. Their guards are both at fault. Su Mu's guards should have restrained him from commiting a blunder, while your son's guards should have kept watch over him to avoid him running into trouble or getting lost in the market. Since this is as a result of the neglect of elders, how about you let the kids go while we settle it?" The old man pleaded, eagerly looking at Alex.Alex chuckled and shook his head."You must have misunderstood me. Of course, I will punish his guard for not taking proper care of my son. However, I won't spare Su Mu either. He crushed my boy's f
Alex watched the old man run away, and turned to Luz."Have you gotten a perfect picture?" He asked, examining the hand."Yes sir," Tajana said, giving him hard copies of the photos."Follow that old man, give him a copy each and tell him to give it to Su Yang, so that he will see what his beloved son did to mine," Alex said coldly, squatting before Luz where Ikaris was still squatting and carrying him.He began to circulate energy into the hand, while Luz gritted his teeth, trying to endure the pain."I'm sorry, little one. I've neglected you," Alex whispered in guilt, massaging the affected area and trying to fix his bones."You didn't do anything wrong. I'm the one that wanted to eat roasted chicken intestines and drumsticks. I didn't even get to eat it anymore. Emrys heard me shouting and gave up on going after the hawker," Luz said unhappily, making Alex give Emrys a side eye. "You left my son all alone, making that idiot attack him. You deserve a good ass kicking," he said angr
Luz's eyes shined with excitement as they uncovered the treasure on the stage. It looked like an ancient, broken, wooden compass, with hints of metals in it."We actually don't know what this is. We found it in a cave, alongside other treasures in a monk's tomb. We kept trying to stimulate it or discover what it's used for, but it's not responding to any stimuli, so we had no choice but to leave it till the auction. We're sure it's something good, just that no one knows what it is or what it's used for. Is there anyone here that recognizes it?" He asked, looking at the VIP and VVIP stands, searching for known masters and monks that were in attendance, hoping for some enlightenment from them. He sighed in disappointment, and turned back to the treasure on the stage. "Since there's no correct appraisal at hand, we will just bid for it at a giveaway price. Starting from five hundred thousand dollars," the auctioneer announced, making murmurs of incredulity to sweep over the crowd."Doe
Alex immediately scoffed, noticing his reluctance to sell it for such a low price now that someone actually bid for it. Not just that, the ears of other people in the VIP and VVIP stands immediately perked up, hoping to know whether it's worth offending the mysterious man in boot number 2(Alex) for.This was not the first time Alex was dealing with such people, so he was not really that worried.He looked at Luz who was already scowling at everyone else and held his hands, trying to calm him down."I don't know what it's used for either. I'm as confused as the rest of you, especially as my efforts to analyze it was met with failure," Alex simply said, relaxing back on the chair."Why then do you want to buy it, when you don't know what it's used for?," the auctioneer asked, still suspicious of Alex."Because my son wants it. My son felt fascinated with it and asked me to buy it for him. Besides, he's saying he felt bad that no one liked the treasure, abandoning it on stage. Since it's
