Claire was queuing up outside of the clinic with the other patients. She was at the very end of the line, currently talking to the woman next to her...

“The legendary Dr. Coney is really something. I had to ask quite a few friends to help me get an appointment with him which I had to wait for another three months to happen.”

“Yeah, I had to wait for more than three months too. Well I can’t complain, no doctor is better than him!”

As she conversed, Claire felt someone approaching her and turned around. She frowned when she realized it was Alex. “Why are you here?”

Alex greeted her out of habit, “Mum.”

Claire exploded with anger, “What do you mean Mum? Who’s your Mum? Let me tell you something, you useless piece of sh*t. My daughter will soon divorce you and we’re cutting clean! Stop trying to crawl back to us! Heck, were you stalking me? You probably couldn’t find a place to stay, right? Are you going to beg me to take you back?”

Alex shook his head and said, “Ma’am, don’t you wor

    “Huh, what happened?”“A little girl! Her face is pale and bluish! She’s not breathing!”“This is terrifying… would Dr. Coney be able to save her?”The crowd started discussing among themselves, hoping for the best.Just then, a middle-aged man carried a five-year-old-girl into the room. He was crying hysterically, with panic written all over his face. With a loud thud, he knelt down.Cheryl immediately got into action. She briefly checked the little girl’s vitals.As she checked, her expression darkened. The little girl wasn’t breathing and had no pulse.Cheryl immediately started doing CPR, asking the middle-aged man as to what had happened.The man cried, “I don’t know, I… I was just paying at the counter. Then, my little girl just fainted behind me. She just fell unconscious.”James approached the little girl as well, he said, “Examine her throat.”Cheryl did as she was told, yet she didn’t find anything blocking the airway.James smacked the little girl’s back a few tim

    “Huh?” Everyone stared at the little girl.Her eyelashes fluttered gently as she slowly opened her eyes.She actually woke up.Cheryl’s eyes widened, she couldn’t believe what she was seeing.However, after waking up, the little girl felt extremely uncomfortable. She placed both of her hands on her neck area as if she was suffocating.“There’s something in her throat. It’s still stuck!” James said panickedly.“Let me handle this!” Alex said and pressed his hand against the little girl’s chest. He lightly poked on her chest again, as if he were playing a lute.Cheryl recognized this method. Alex had massaged his mother’s limbs the same.With a loud thud, Alex pressed down hard on the little girl’s chest. An object flew out of her mouth as she spat it out.It was a kumquat.The man suddenly remembered something and exclaimed. “It’s the mountain hawthorn. I bought some for Zoey a while ago. I thought she had finished it earlier. I didn’t think it…”Alex said, “It was stuck to

    Alex had just left Ganoderma, walking at a slow pace.He thought, ‘Mom will be discharged in two days, but we lost our property. Plus, I was kicked out by Claire, so we won’t have a place to stay. Buying a property is my priority now.’But he also knew that his father had hidden Thousand Miles Conglomerate’s existence from his mother. He had heard this from Lex himself. ‘Should I tell her?’ He thought.He wouldn’t be able to use any of his funds if he didn’t give her a proper explanation.He decided to keep it a secret for now.Thousand Miles Conglomerate was involved with underworld work, so most people would view them as mafias or thugs. This could be the reason his father had hidden the conglomerate from his mother.It wouldn’t be wise to reveal the truth to her right now.‘Then… I’ll just get a small apartment. I’ll tell her the money came from my savings.’It was decided.Just as Alex was about to call a cab to go back to the hospital, Cheryl yelled out to him from behi

    Alex’s expression turned colder. “Who sent you?”Scarface scoffed. “Do you really want to know? Kneel down and slap yourself then. If you give me a good show, I might consider telling you.”Alex nodded. “How about this? You kneel down and slap yourself a hundred times. Then, I might consider letting you off easy.”“What?” The thugs were confused as they thought they had heard wrong.Before arriving, they heard that this guy was a good for nothing bloke. He wasn’t even allowed to be intimate with his own wife and he had to slave away for his mother-in-law.How could someone as worthless as him dare to say such words to them?Was he out of his mind?“You’ve got some guts, I’d give you that you brat. Looks like you’re going to have to say goodbye to your lower half and your arms!” Scarface smirked cockily, raising the bat above his head, about to smash Alex’s legs.There was a loud thud followed by cracking.The wooden bat smashed right into Alex’s shin and into two halves from t

    During the Assexes’ annual celebration, Spark was incredibly shocked that Lord Lex Gunther from Thousand Miles Conglomerate had stood up for Alex. He couldn’t understand why Lord Lex would ever help a useless piece of shit like Alex.If Lex ever wanted to beat up his grandfather, Bill Rockefeller, all Spark would be able to do was watch. He wouldn’t ever dare to show any signs of vengeance. That would mean that he wouldn’t be able to seek revenge on Alex for breaking his arm.Besides, Rockefeller Group was still worried about Thousand Miles Conglomerate seeking vengeance against them as well.However, he later found out that Lex owed William a favor. Now that he paid back the favor, he no longer owed the Rockefellers anything. Moreover, Alex had tried calling Lex once, yet he ended up being yelled at and threatened.Spark had nothing to fear then!So, he immediately hired some people to deal with Alex.Ring ring ring...At that moment, a young model was massaging Spark in a cl

    The punch was filled with a strong flow of Chi. It would damage Spark’s reproductive organs over time and in just a month, he would lose his ability to engage in sexual intercourse completely.Alex left the rundown house and met up with Cheryl, who was waiting in the restaurant. They were going to have lunch together.Before dealing with Spark, Alex had asked Cheryl to order some food and wait for him.As he watched Alex walk away, Spark chided Scarface, “F*ck! Scarface, you scammer! I agreed to pay you so much money, and you’re trying to scam me? Didn’t you say you were the best fighter in Teal Street? How are you the best if you can’t even deal with a mere boy toy?”With a fractured shin, Scarface was just as angry. “How dare you f*cking scold me? You said he was a weakling! But he was strong and his movements were swift too. He could tear you into pieces with one arm! You know what? I, Scarface, wouldn’t just leave it this way. My big sister will be back in two days.

    “Papa, why did they call Uncle Alex useless? He isn’t!” The little girl, Zoey Carter, pouted angrily.She was almost six years old so she was growing to be more thoughtful.She was able to escape death that afternoon all thanks to Alex. When she was still in her spirit state, all she felt was loneliness and coldness. Alex was like a campfire in the winter, keeping her warm, which was why it left a strong impression on her.Charles replied, “They don’t know what they’re saying.”Hailey added, “Let’s help him out in some way, rather than babble on about those two. Let’s see, how do we find him… I heard after William’s accident, his wife became vegetative, she’s been in the hospital ever since.”Charles said, “Let’s go to the main city to find Cheryl.”Just then, Alex and Cheryl went back to the hospital.Alex was going to help his mother discharge from the hospital. However, Cheryl felt like Brittany should stay for another few days just in case.Alex smiled, “There’s no need for

    Hailey was gorgeous and curvy; she looked like a beautiful painting.Alex immediately closed his eyes, forcing himself to not look or think about it. He tried remembering Claire’s twisted face as she yelled at him. This helped him calm himself down from the impure thoughts he had just a while ago.Within a minute, all seven acupuncture points had been pressed onThe electric Chi needle only required seven seconds to take effect.After seven seconds, Alex asked, “Okay, I’m done Hailey. How do you feel?”Hailey rubbed her temples and exclaimed, “Oh my god, my head doesn’t hurt anymore! My temples used to hurt so badly before. Oh kiddo, you’re absolutely amazing! If I fall ill again someday, I’ll come to you!”While talking, Hailey swayed her body side to side, causing her chest to jiggle slightly as well.Huh, in just a few minutes, Alex went from being called Dr. Rockefeller to Alex, and now kiddo.Their relationship seemed to be getting more casual with each change in nickname.

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,

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...

    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—!

    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!

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
