As soon as Alexander heard the old man's words, he froze in place, his body going rigid with surprise. However, he quickly recovered his composure, though deep in his mind, he couldn't help but wonder, "Has Monique betrayed me? Why would she do such a thing? What could she possibly gain from betraying me? She knows how powerful and influential the Greece family is."He forcefully pushed those thoughts out of his head and firmly replied, "I find it hard to believe what you're saying, old man. Only a foolish person would claim to be my sister when they are well aware of the countless enemies I have."Suddenly, the old man's voice filled with disdain as he sneered, "So you think you can play petty tricks with me? I must inform you that I have been playing such games long before you were even born. If this woman isn't truly your sister, then why have you come here?"Alexander couldn't help but let out a laugh, his amusement evident in his voice. "As I've already told you, my purpose in co
"Stop!!" Alexander's voice erupted instantaneously, piercing through the air. His aura surged outward, engulfing the surroundings with an overwhelming energy. At the precise moment, the old man, who had brandished his knife menacingly towards Isabel, froze abruptly. The blade was held extremely close to Isabel's vulnerable throat.Realizing the imminent danger, Alexander made a swift and brave decision. He recognized that none among their group possessed the strength to match the old man's formidable power. Even if they joined forces and fought him together, their collective strength would prove woefully insufficient. The old man undoubtedly surpassed the boundaries of the Warrior's realm, placing him in an unrivaled position."Let them all go. I'll stab myself," Alexander declared, his voice laced with resolve. He understood that sacrificing himself was the only viable means to protect his companions from the old man's malevolence.The weight of Alexander's selfless proposition hung h
A look of concentration crossed Damien's features as he spoke, his voice tinged with a hint of expertise, "Although I cannot name this particular poison, the aroma reveals its true nature to me. There was a time when I was taught the art of pill refining, but my limited talent hindered me from going further into the art."Isabel and Monique maintained a hushed silence, patiently anticipating his words. The prevailing atmosphere was punctuated only by the audibly agonized hisses emanating from Alexander. The pain he endured was excruciating, yet he exhibited remarkable self-restraint by suppressing any urge to vocalize his suffering.Damien's brow furrowed with concern as he continued, "This poison, it originates from the most obscure and treacherous sources found in abandoned mountains. Obtaining it is no simple feat, as it requires navigating through perilous terrains and locating rare, hidden materials." Pausing for a moment, he added, "However, there is a glimmer of hope amidst the
"I vividly remember you assuring me that this pill is the antidote needed to rescue him," Isabel said, her frustration evident as she glanced over at Alexander and then turned her attention to Damien.Damien, wearing a confused expression, furrowed his brows and responded, "I am certain that this pill is made from the mysterious phoenix tail grass. However, I am confused and still don't know why young master here has not regained consciousness yet. I know i couldn't learn much in this field because of my poor talent, but I can assure you hundred percent that this pill is indeed made from the Phoenix Tail grass. Despite his current state, I can sense a faint breath, indicating that he is still alive."As Isabel felt a wave of anxiety wash over her, Monique approached and gently placed a comforting hand on her shoulder, soothing her nerves. Taking a deep breath, Isabel regained her composure and joined Monique and Damien in observing Alexander intently.Suddenly, a subtle and barely au
The young man had a furious expression on his face. He said, "You wanted to get back at Alexander for what he did to your student. I allowed you to do that. But do you really think that makes you invisible? You also have to face the consequences for kidnapping Monique and trying to kill Alexander."The old man responded with a smile, saying, "You don't have enough power to stop me or even take my life. And even if I were to die today, I wouldn't have any regrets for two reasons. First, I got my revenge on Alexander and avenged my student. Second, whoever eventually manages to kill me will have to face the wrath of my brother in a brutal manner."The young man laughed as though he had just heard a hilarious joke. Afterward, he responded, saying, "I'm sorry to say, but I believe you will end up feeling sorry and regretting after you die. Maybe when you are in the underworld, you would learn why i allowed you do as you please."The old man, with a smug grin on his face, reacted by saying
The figure with the aged voice who let out a weary sigh emerge. This person was none other than Tobias, a person well-known to Alexander. Tobias was the old man who had cunningly deceived Alexander into becoming his disciple, and also gave him the mysterious black pill. Furthermore, he happened to be the brother of the old man who had set out to kill Alexander.Tobias stooped down beside his dying brother, his voice filled with remorse as he uttered, "Brother, I deeply regret not helping you but you have committed numerous acts of evil, and I have allowed them to go unchallenged. Let this moment be your chance at redemption. Even if I had intervened, you would have been able to inflict harm on Alexander, let alone surviving. They gave me face and let you do what you did."His brother let out a pained groan and asked, "He has a powerful expert like me by his side. Who exactly is Alexander?"Tobias turned to his brother, his voice filled with a mixture of nostalgia and gratitude. "Can y
"Ever since we left the abandoned building," Damien wondered, "I haven't seen Alexander or Monique make a single phone call or even lift a finger. But for some reason, Alexander seems confident that the old man who attacked him has been taken care of by now. It makes me wonder... Could it be that Alexander has another skilled expert hidden away, someone more powerful thsn Isabel, who is secretly working by his side? If that's true, then why didn't this expert show up when Alexander was in danger? Ah well, forget it. Trying to understand the ways of truly powerful people is just too confusing for me."Monique and Isabel weren't very surprised by the situation. They understood that there were experts nearby who were watching and protecting them closely. However, they didn't know why the experts didn't step in right away. They had a suspicion that it was a decision from someone in a higher position to help Alexander become stronger. They believed that the more danger Alexander encountere
Helen brought Alexander inside the house. When they entered the living room, they saw Mr. Baker, Helen's father, already seated and patiently waiting. Without paying much attention to Mr. Baker, Alexander simply found a seat for himself. Mr. Baker didn't like Alexander's attitude and was unhappy with it, but he decided to tolerate it because he had a plan in mind.Mr. Baker greeted Alexander, saying, "Welcome to my humble home, Alexander," without sounding overly humble or dominant.However, Alexander being his usual self, responded, "If this place is a humble home, then I must be living in a trash can."Mr. Baker felt embarrassed by Alexander's comment, but Alexander didn't seem to care. Getting straight to the point, he asked, "What do you want?""I heard that the Taylor family tried to have you killed before, but you managed to survive. Now, they're trying to harm my daughter as well. It's obvious they have a strong desire to cause trouble for my family. And you know i also take yo
