As Isabel stepped down from the car, she smiled.The man smirked confidently, underestimating Isabel's abilities. "Ah, the little girl wants to play," he taunted, his voice dripping with arrogance. "I hope you're prepared to be defeated."Although he couldn't discern Isabel's realm, he didn't care much as he assumed she must be weaker. Just as Isabel was about to step forward, Alexander intervened, reminding her of the Hasen situation."You remember the Hasen situation, right?" Alexander asked.Isabel nodded, her recollection clear."I have to get stronger, and that means pushing myself to the limits and not giving up," Alexander continued.Isabel replied hesitantly, "But..."Alexander interrupted her, determined to make his point. "Do you want to see me lose to Hasen? This is one way to improve my capabilities."Without saying anything else, Alexander ran quickly towards his enemy, barely noticing his injuries from previous fights. The smell of adrenaline filled the air as he attacke
Helen, who was sitting in the car, experienced a surge of fear that filled her mind. In the past, she had harbored feelings of satisfaction at the mere thought of Alexander's demise, but now her emotions had taken an unexpected turn. She no longer wished for him to die, and this conflicting realization left her in a bewildered state.Amidst the chaos, Alexander gasped for breath, barely able to speak as he whispered, "Even if the physical body dies, as long as the mind endures, the Warrior never truly dies." These words carried a profound meaning.As Alexander's eyes began to close, a fleeting moment passed, and suddenly, a faint golden light started emanating from his battered form. The unexpected sight captured the attention of both his adversary and Isabel, their expressions filled with surprise and fascination."He's breaking through!" the man exclaimed, his face contorted with anger. "He's using me as a mere stepping stone in his pursuit of greater power!" Fueled by outrage, he l
The man before them let out a mocking laugh, his bitter amusement echoing in the air. It was evident to him that the Taylor family had abandoned him completely, leaving him to face the consequences alone."Young master, you've just had a grueling battle. Please allow me to handle this," Isabel interjected, her voice filled with determination and concern.Alexander hesitated, his weariness evident, especially with Helen present. He didn't want Helen to be aware of Isabel's immense power, yet he felt drained and exhausted. Ultimately, he reluctantly nodded and said, "Okay."Taking a step forward, Isabel unleashed her formidable aura, radiating power to the very edges of its reach. With lightning speed, she darted through the group of eight men, gracefully weaving in and out among them. By the time she came to a halt, all eight men lay on the ground, not merely injured but lifeless.Helen, who had been observing the scene from the safety of the car, stared at Isabel in disbelief, her mou
After completing his shower and changing into a fresh set of clothes, Alexander emerged as a picture-perfect gentleman. Sporting a charming smile, he gracefully stepped into the waiting taxi, which had been flagged down by Isabel."Isabel, there's really no need for you to constantly shadow me from now on," Alexander remarked with a gentle tone.Isabel, inquisitive as ever, questioned, "Young master, are you trying to push me away? Even though you possess great strength now, there are still formidable enemies lurking out there. I can always serve as your loyal protector."Alexander affectionately patted her head and responded with a smile, "Silly girl, I'm not trying to get rid of you. I understand that I'll always need you by my side. However, I believe it's crucial for you to become stronger now. You're right about my adversaries growing more powerful, and I couldn't bear the thought of something happening to you while safeguarding me. So, take this opportunity to focus on your own
This wasn't the first time Alexander had heard about his extended stay in his mother's womb for 15 months. In fact, people had once regarded him as a cursed child, believing that such an extraordinary duration of pregnancy was a sign of something sinister. The nurses who were aware of this peculiar circumstance even taunted him, comparing him to a demon from hell. Not many people knew about it though, however, this time, someone had described it as a blessing and recognized his uniqueness.The old man chuckled and said, "There's no need for you to delve deeper into this matter at the moment. It would only serve as a distraction. Anyway, as I mentioned earlier, you're likely to face misfortune, and I'm here to assist you."As he spoke, the old man reached into his pocket and pulled out a folded piece of paper. Within the paper was a black pill, which emitted an unpleasant odor.Both Isabel and Alexander wrinkled their noses in response.The old man continued, "This pill is the solution

As the other shareholders entered the room, they swiftly sold their shares, and the monetary transactions were completed promptly. After packing up their belongings, they departed, leaving only Mr. Matthew, Kristine, Alexander, and Isabel behind."The Taylor family is gearing up to give their best shot at finishing Light World Entertainment," he said, acknowledging the reality of their predicament. "And we have no choice but to let them succeed."Mr. Matthew, still coming to terms with his loss of authority in the company, was taken aback but attempted to speak up before hesitating, mindful of his new position. In his mind, he just said, "Did you buy this company just to destroy it?"However, Alexander encouraged him to share his thoughts freely, prompting Mr. Matthew to express his concern, "If we allow Taylor Entertainment to strike us, it will undoubtedly spell the end for us."In response, Alexander challenged him, "Do you have any counterplans in mind?"Mr. Matthew, though unsure
Ping! Alexander's phone chimed as a new message popped up on the screen. To his delight, it was a message containing Monique's phone number. Without any hesitation, he immediately dialed the number and put his phone on loudspeaker to assure his friend Matthew that everything was fine.As soon as the call connected, a mesmerizing and enchanting voice greeted him, "Hey, little brother, I've been eagerly waiting for your call, and yes, I'll sign with Light World."The unexpected revelation address from Monique had left Alexander speechless for a moment, prompting him to remove the phone from loudspeaker to maintain privacyWith gratitude in his voice, he managed to respond, "Thank you."Curious to meet in person, Monique asked, "Can we meet?"There was a brief pause on Alexander's end as he considered her request before finally inquiring, "Where?"Monique suggested, "How about at Mom's house?"After a moment of thought, Alexander simply replied with an affirmative "Okay" and ended the ca
The onslaught of attacks was directed at Alexander, but rather peculiarly, it appeared as though they merely struck an invisible barrier before vanishing into thin air. This unexpected turn of events washed over Isabelle with a profound sense of relief, momentarily alleviating her apprehensions. However, her newfound comfort was abruptly replaced by a more profound sense of concern as she observed Alexander, who remained motionless, with his eyes firmly shut in an unsettling manner."Young Master!" Isabelle cried out once more, her voice trembling with anxiety, but there was still no sign of response from him.Notifying Lord Pluto and the rest of the group, she swiftly attempted to rush to Alexander's aid. However, an insurmountable obstacle barred her path, a formidable and turbulent force akin to an unyielding gale, effectively halting her advance.In a synchronized effort, both Captain Tiger and Captain Skeleton also endeavored to reach Alexander's side, but they, too, found the
Alexander wore a confident smile as he responded, "In the event of a clash between our forces, the outcome would undoubtedly be in our favor. While it's true that both of our factions possess great strength, the critical distinction lies in my approach. I don't merely seek personal power; I am dedicated to empowering my people. Behind me stand formidable martial artists and skilled weapon users, all contributing to our collective might."Captain Tiger guffawed heartily in response, "Our troops, in essence, serve as expendable pawns and sacrificial lambs – or, to put it bluntly, they're our meatshields. As leaders, it's our duty for our people to be willing to lay down their lives for us. The caveat is that we rely on their sacrifices to keep our operations afloat. Yet, as long as Captain Skeleton and I maintain our personal strength, it's sufficient to strike fear into our adversaries. This, in turn, ensures that our men don't meet their end quite so easily."With a sarcastic clap, Al
Alexander observed as Lord Pluto and his companions rose from the ground. Approaching them, he inquired, "Do you find yourselves persuaded?"Lord Pluto responded with a nod, lowering his head in acknowledgment. "Completely convinced," he affirmed.Terry and Townsend also signaled their agreement with affirmative nods. Isabelle, on the other hand, didn't need to express her belief; she had unwaveringly trusted Alexander from the beginning.Having settled the matter, Alexander addressed Isabelle with determination, saying, "There's no time for extensive preparations. Gather our people; we must march to battle immediately. Today, we shall seize control of Rhode Island."Isabelle responded with a nod, her smile reflecting her readiness, and she swiftly dispatched Terry and Townsend to carry out the orders.Alexander then turned to Lord Pluto, acknowledging the urgency, and said, "I'm certain your people are already preparing. Instead of coming here, they should head straight to where the
Upon disembarking from the vehicle alongside Lord Pluto, Alexander was met with a chorus of salutes from the newly formed merger of the Xander Mercenaries, their respect palpable in the air.With a gracious smile adorning his face, Alexander returned the salute to his loyal comrades. Meanwhile, a quartet of individuals, comprising Isabelle, Damien, Terry, and Townsend, made their way toward the charismatic duo of Alexander and Lord Pluto.Isabelle, ever conscious of the company present, initially exhibited a degree of restraint in her demeanor, but Alexander, driven by the warmth of their reunion, paid no heed to the onlookers and proceeded to embrace Isabelle, reaffirming their strong bond.He gently murmured into her ear, "You've put in a tremendous amount of effort," his words soft and reassuring. After sharing a heartfelt embrace that lasted for approximately two minutes, he released her from their warm hug. Isabelle found herself inundated with a whirlwind of emotions, yet she
"What one?" Alexander inquired, his brow furrowing in confusion as he struggled to grasp the gravity of Lord Pluto's words.In response, Lord Pluto's voice carried a somber tone as he recounted a past conversation, "During our initial encounter, Isabelle shared her audacious ambition with me – to conquer Rhode Island and emerge as the dominant power. I warned her that the existing peak forces in the region were formidable, and it seemed an insurmountable task, but she remained resolute."With a weary sigh, Lord Pluto continued to divulge, "I've taken precautionary measures since then; I've summoned my loyal followers and fortified my territory to shield it from external influences. It's not that I plan to betray them, but I'm not willing to jeopardize my life either so it's better i remain on the sidelines. Isabelle once mentioned that if her young master were present, dealing with these forces would be a breeze. Seeing you, you appear quite ordinary, which makes me wonder if she exag
Alexander found himself escorted by a group of heavily armed men who guided him through the encampment, ultimately leading him to their authoritative figure. The commanding presence he met was none other than Lord Pluto, the formidable leader of the Plutonian Force whom Isabelle was familiar with it.The Plutonian Force, the mercenary force that had recently isolated themselves and had strategically fortified their encampment, shutting themselves off from external affairs. Yet, the part of the coast where Alexander had made his unexpected arrival fell within their territory.Curiously, this region had been left less guarded, as the Plutonians didn't anticipate any visitors attempting to access their territory by sea, considering the treacherous waters teeming with wildlife posed a significant deterrent.So it was truly a surprise to see Alexander come from there.It was a genuine shock to witness Alexander emerge from that particular location."Kneel!" In a tense moment, one of the a
Alexander approached Freya with a graceful stride, lowering his head in a polite bow as he spoke, "I extend my heartfelt gratitude."He then turned his attention to Uncle Three and performed a similar courteous gesture, expressing his appreciation, "Thank you for your assistance."Uncle Three, a jovial twinkle in his eye, replied with a chuckle, "Oh, I didn't really contribute much. Had it not been for this powerful lady here, my second brother might have persisted."Alexander's lips curled into a warm smile, his appreciation unwavering, "Nevertheless, your decision to come here alone carries great significance."Uncle Three acknowledged the gravity of the situation with a nod, "I understand that you have important matters to discuss with her. I'll take my leave now, leaving you to your conversation."Alexander gave a subtle nod, his eyes locked on Uncle Three as his figure slowly faded from view. Before Alexander could utter a word, Freya's voice resonated with a mix of understandin
Uncle Three experienced a profound sense of shame due to Freya's words. Despite his unwavering faith in Alexander, he couldn't deny that Alexander's opponent possessed superior skills and abilities. Nevertheless, he made a deliberate choice to maintain his silence, mirroring Freya's stance. Uncle Three harbored an unspoken commitment that if ever Alexander found himself in mortal peril, he would instantly and unhesitatingly rush to his aid, ready to face any danger to protect his young master.Alexander and Silas remained entangled in their fierce battle. In this latest skirmish, the formidable force of their clash propelled Alexander, once more, to be forcefully hurled to the unforgiving ground. However, instead of immediately pursuing his fallen opponent, Silas chose to bide his time and observe, patiently allowing Alexander to rise on his own accord. Silas anticipated the moment of vulnerability that would arise when his adversary got back on his feet, ready to seize any opportu
Deep within the recesses of Uncle Two's mind, an intense desire burned within him, one he could scarcely admit even to himself. It was a wish, a sinister yearning, to violently dismantle Freya's world and force her to witness his merciless confrontation with Alexander. This desire was so powerful that it coursed through his every thought, yet he refrained from acting on it.Two primary reasons compelled Uncle Two to exercise caution. Firstly, he was unable to ascertain the true extent of Freya's abilities or her connections, leaving him in the dark regarding the potential consequences of his actions. Secondly, an overwhelming, ominous pressure seemed to emanate from Freya herself, a formidable force that served as a stark deterrent.Despite the fervent desire to bring Alexander to an end, Uncle Two cherished his own life, a natural instinct that whispered warnings of the grave dangers lurking should he tread recklessly on this treacherous path. In this delicate balance between desi
