Sister Flora nodded. After that, she couldn’t resist asking a question. “Senior, did your trip to Japan go smoothly?”“The superiors gave an order. We have to acquire the Dragon Gate’s key at all costs,” Snow Whitney said.“Caesar’s tomb?” Sister Flora asked.“That’s right!” Snow replied.Sister Flora nodded. “I’ll get it done right away!”***Alex Rockefeller stayed by Phoebe Larsen’s bed for three whole hours.By then, it was already two in the morning.Phoebe finally woke up.When Alex saw her eyes opening, he quickly grabbed her hand and checked her pulse.Everything was fine!Earlier, when Phoebe was still unconscious, Alex could sense mysterious ancient runes spinning around in her body. They coursed through her veins repeatedly, almost as if they were modifying her body from a mortal body into a spiritual body.This was actually a good thing.For example, when Alex first acquired his ancestor’s Ultimate Book of Medicine, he received a breath of divine energy. That w
Alex Rockefeller looked at Phoebe Larsen before him. She was familiar yet unfamiliar at the same time.Alex truly felt tormented.If he had known earlier that this would happen, he wouldn’t have taken this piece of bone from Viole Zimmer’s pocket. He thought he acquired a piece of treasure, but the results turned out to be deadly. From this woman’s tone and content, she clearly had an unusual past. She wasn’t something Alex could deal with.Alex wondered if Auntie would be able to handle her.The woman sat up on the bed and looked at her index finger.The index finger started emitting white light. It appeared holy and sacred. The complicated runes became even dense while they circled around the index finger. In fact, Earth essence in the surroundings had quickly gathered around it.“This…” Alex’s eyes nearly fell out from shock.He was also capable of attracting Earth essence around him, but he definitely couldn’t do it as fast as she did. Moreover, with a casual move of her fin
This was likened to a person with dual personalities.When one personality was present, the other would be absent.Both personalities wouldn’t appear at the same time.“Alright. I promise!” said Alex Rockefeller while nodding.“I haven’t asked you yet. What’s your name, Elder?” Alex asked.“Yuno!”“Alright, Elder Yuno. May I ask how much you know about the Rockefeller family? Although I acquired my ancestor’s legacy, I…” Alex was about to ask a question. In the end, he noticed that Yuno’s eyes slowly closed, and her facial expression changed, no longer possessing the cold countenance she had.“Alex, what are you saying?”It was a different voice and intonation.“Ehh, nothing!” Alex was slightly disappointed while he looked at Phoebe.“How do you feel now?” he asked after that.Phoebe moved her neck and body slightly. “I should be fine. I feel pretty good,” she said.After that, she also extended her fingers to check on her index finger. “That bone earlier…”“Stop overthink
Alex Rockefeller sat on the ground, stunned for a good while.He turned around and looked at Phoebe Larsen. He suspected that Yuno might have shown up after Phoebe fell asleep. Although Yuno was only borrowing Phoebe’s body, she might have still felt the same way after taking control of Phoebe’s body and realized she was hugging Alex.Under such a circumstance, Alex could understand why he was kicked.However, he soon discovered that that wasn’t the case at all.Yuno wasn’t conscious.Instead, Phoebe simply had a terrible sleeping posture. Her hands and legs were sprawled in all directions like a tortoise!***The next day arrived all too soon.Having stayed over at the hospital, Grace Larsen had slept very early since there wasn’t much to do. Hence, she knew nothing about what happened at the Larsen family’s house. This morning, when she unlocked her phone, she discovered that she had received multiple calls. Only then did she find out that something major had happened.Grace
Wayne actually woke up right this moment.Alex was shocked. ‘Sh*t, if he heard what Phoebe and I talked about, I would have to face serious consequences,’ he thought.Phoebe, on the other hand, immediately gave Wayne a big hug, exclaiming. “Dad! You’re awake! This is great! You scared me to death!”With her exclamations, Grace rushed over as well.Her eyes reddened. “Larsen!”The whole family started hugging each other while Alex walked to the side.Unexpectedly, Wayne pointed to Alex and said, “Hey kid, come here. We’re not done talking yet. Who are you? And who is your father? Why did you ask my daughter and me to get a DNA test?”Grace froze, looking like she was about to say something.However, Phoebe replied to him before she could. “Dad, don’t misunderstand. We’re just joking. This guy is the son of Mom’s old colleague.”“Colleague? Who?”“William Rockefeller. Do you know him, Dad?”Upon hearing that name, Wayne’s mouth became agape, and she looked slightly upset. He t
The masked people froze.Since they were wearing masks, nobody could tell what their expressions were at the time. Flora’s bloody eyes squinted, and she smiled with bloodthirst. “So it looks like all of you are prepared for death. Clever. How about this? Since you guys are so cooperative, I’ll let you die swiftly, and I won’t chop your body up. I’d even dig a hole to bury your bodies too.”“Good thinking! By that time, the hole should be enough to bury the three of you!”At that time, an old man stood up abruptly. It was Keith.After knowing that the Rockefellers were in trouble, he rushed over to provide some help.A hot-tempered half-stepped grandmaster huffed at Keith’s words. “Do you want to die first, old man? Fine, I’ll grant you your wish. I’ll make sure that you’d be so crushed that you don’t deserve to be buried!”After saying this, the half-stepped grandmaster immediately launched an attack.With this, he revealed his strength as a half-stepped grandmaster, lunging tow
“Did you get a good look at it? I did it just like that. But if you’re still unclear, I don’t mind showing you again!” Aunt Rockefeller said calmly. It seemed as though the half-stepped grandmasters she just killed were nothing but little chicks to her.“This…” Flora felt her soul jump out of her body.Backing away immediately, she wanted to make a run for the exit.However, just as she turned around, she realized that two people were standing at the door. They were Holly and Maya.Holly swung her fists as balls of flames formed right above her hand.“Spiritual power with fire elementals? She’s a cultivator?!” Flora was shocked. She didn’t expect that Alex’s young sister would be an actual cultivation guru of all things.Additionally, that woman who had just killed two half-stepped grandmasters in a flash was an even more terrifying subject.Flora finally realized that her sister had messed with the wrong group of people. She might end up terribly as well.Flora’s bloody eyes r
Alex wasn’t alone, however. Next to him was the ethereal Aunt Rockefeller, wearing a flowy white dress, looking as if she was attending a wedding instead of a funeral.The Larsens, a family of three, arrived with them. Wayne had surprisingly tagged along as well.Apart from them, Zachary from the Divine Constabulary was present too.When he noticed Lord Commander from Department Six, Zachary was shocked. Slightly terrified, he mumbled to himself. “Why is he here?”Although his voice was soft, Alex could hear what he said. Alex turned his head and asked, “Mr. Xavier, who are you talking to?”Zachary took a few glances toward Lord Commander and whispered. “That guy, the one with a beard... that’s Lord Commander of Department Six, the highest commander in their department. I really didn’t expect this powerful man to be here as well.”Alex looked at the man. “Department Six? What is that?”Unexpectedly, when Alex turned to look at him, Lord Commander seemed to have sensed his gaze
