“I’m very sorry that I wasn’t able to find you a suitable maid.“That’s because… Nobody was willing to come,” Dory said.“Ehh—” Alex Rockefeller was stunned for a moment. Come to think of it, he had never offered a price or anything. That, however, wasn’t important. At the current rate of recovery, his legs would be grown entirely in another three days.After that, Dory took out a storage purse and started pulling out stuff one at a time.“Here are some vegetables.”“Here are some clothes for you and your daughter too.”“Here’s some milk powder. It’s all untainted, nutritious milk powder from demon beasts that are level three and above! I also brought you diapers!”“Also, guess what else I brought you?” Dory added.Alex looked at how Dory pulled out stuff as if she were offering him treasures. He found it a little funny. “What is it?” Alex asked.“Look!” Dory took something out. It was actually a wheelchair.Moreover, it was powered by spiritual power.“Your legs were choppe
‘Peak-Core Formation!’ After looking at Kavan Yggdrasill, Alex Rockefeller could sense his cultivation level right away.However, what was with Kavan looking down on him?Under normal circumstances, Alex could easily kill a few lowly people like him with a single slap.Most importantly, this house now belonged to Alex. These two people came uninvited, and they even barged right in. Weren’t they too disrespectful of Alex?Meanwhile, Dory stood up in a panic. Even her silverware fell to the ground. “Ms. Khloe, Uncle… Uncle Kavan, why did you come here?”Kavan laughed coldly. “Didn’t you want to betray the Yggdrasill family and run off with this… legless, disabled man? I’m here to give you what you want.”After that, Kavan turned to face Alex. “Hey, I’m Kavan Yggdrasill from the Yggdrasill family. You’re staying at my family’s house. Now that you’ve seen me, how dare you stay seated and continue eating? Do you have no shame? Hurry up and kneel before me. After that, tell me everythi
Kavan Yggdrasill bellowed, his voice causing the entire house to shake. In fact, it even woke up Bubbles Rockefeller in the room. The sound of a baby crying could be heard.Alex Rockefeller raised his brows. A tinge of anger struck him while he stared at Kavan. “You. Get the hell out, right now!”“What?”“Oh my god!”At that moment, not only was Dory shocked, but even Khloe Yggdrasill was shocked. Khloe seemed horrified.Did Alex actually just tell Kavan to get the hell out?This was bad!This was very bad!Boom—Kavan burst out in a fit of rage, slamming his palm hard against the table.The magnificent table was instantly crushed into dust particles. All the delicious dishes Dory had put so much effort into cooking were also destroyed.“Kiddo, I’m offering you a chance to live. Tell me where your major rejuvenation pills came from and give me everything valuable you have. Once I hit you with my hand, I can guarantee you won’t even need a coffin,” Kavan yelled.Alex looked
Khloe Yggdrasill shook her head. “I told you. I won’t put you in a difficult position.”After pausing for a moment, Khloe started speaking calmly. “However, the Yggdrasill family has found out about your possession of the major rejuvenation pills. As you can see, Uncle Kavan is an unreasonable person. It wasn’t easy for me to persuade him to leave. If he really does want to attack you, your life is over! You still need to think about your daughter, don’t you?”Alex Rockefeller sat in his wheelchair. He wheeled himself forward a little.After that, he took his daughter from Dory.Alex felt unusually satisfied when he saw Bubbles Rockefeller’s round eyes that looked like her mother’s.From the moment Bubbles was born, Alex had given her a nickname—“Dragon Scale!”All dragons had scales. Whoever touched them would die instantly.If the Yggdrasill family dared to even think about harming Bubbles, Alex would annihilate all of them.Alex gently caressed Bubbles. She had recently be
‘Why would he have such a precious pill?’‘Could he be an incomparably noble alchemist? But how could such a young, profound alchemist exist in the world?’Khloe Yggdrasill looked at Alex Rockefeller. “You… Why do you have such a pill?” she asked.“Is this pill enough to buy Dory’s freedom?” Alex Rockefeller asked.“You… You want to use this pill to purchase Dory’s freedom?” Khloe asked.“What’s the matter? Do you think it’s too little?” Alex asked.“…”How could it be too little?This was a limit-breaking pill!Never mind Dory, it was more than enough to buy Khloe off too.Khloe didn’t even look at Dory. She immediately nodded. “Alright. Dory is yours.”Alex waved his hand. “In that case, leave. Without my permission as the owner, don’t ever step into my house.” Khloe wanted to say something, but she stopped herself.However, her mind was focused entirely on the limit-breaking pill in her hand. This was a significant matter. She needed to return and inform her grandfathe
“Brother, I think I should go instead.” Dylan smiled.Kavan frowned. “Are you worried that I’d make the treasure my own, big brother?”“Why would you? And why would I think that? But I’ve been to that house, and I’ve seen that punk. It’ll be easier for me to carry this out. I’ll just go in your stead.”Lauren then spoke up. “Oh, Kavan, you’re usually pretty clumsy, you know? This is a treasure left by an expert, so it’s not a simple task. Just let your brother do this, just in case. You can stay here and wait for the good news.”The two brothers and the woman kept bickering over this to the point they almost started fighting.“Enough!”“I’m not dead yet, you know? I’ll personally take up the task!” Shawn determined. “Khloe, follow me to capture that punk later in the evening.”“Grandpa, uhm… you won’t kill him, right?” Khloe asked“That depends on how much he’s willing to cooperate,” Shawn replied.***Just as the Yggdrasills had made up their minds to deal with Alex at night
Alex was appalled.‘That’s way too expensive, isn’t that?’‘Ugh... If I’d known, I wouldn’t have given it to Khloe.’Staring at the tower, Alex felt uninterested. Blood energy pills were among the lowest-ranked pills. They didn’t even have enough carats. However, ordinary people could consume blood energy pills without having trained in cultivation. Hence, that pill became a necessity for anyone who wanted to begin cultivating.*** At the time, Shawn and Khloe had arrived at Alex’s place.Rushing into the manor, both wore black suits and masked themselves. To their demise, they couldn’t find Alex. There wasn’t even anyone in there.“Could they have received news and ran away?” Shawn was enraged. He swore to obtain the treasure Alex held. If he ran away, it meant they’d lose an extremely rare opportunity.“That’s impossible! Where could he have run to?” Khloe asked.Although she really didn’t want such a thing, she was still a businesswoman. Moreover, her face was scarred; h
Alex frowned. This woman was obviously one of the employees of the accessory store.‘We should still be considered customers the moment we step in. How could she treat us like that?’Alex’s gaze turned cold. “Has your boss not taught you that the customer is always right? As an employee, how dare you sneer at us customers? Have you gone mad?”Upon hearing this, Dory’s expression changed.Her face lost all color as she pulled Alex back. The store was called Treasure Trove, one of the Usoro family’s businesses within Starborn City. Causing a scene here would be very unwise.Half of the Usoro family’s wealth had been taken by the Remedy Palace, only because the head of their family wanted to find a cure.However, now that its head was still alive, he managed to bring the family back up to its feet, in fact, pushing it to even greater heights.Hence, the Usoro family was still the wealthiest and most powerful family within Starborn City, far greater than the Yggdrasill family in man
