Claire’s gloating sneer vanished slowly, and she doubted that she had heard right. “What did you just say?”“I said,” Carey repeated coldly, “Get! Lost!”Claire heard it clearly this time. Not only was she dumbfounded, but she flew into a mighty rage!With her kind of temper, was it possible to even hold it in?Of course not!“Sigh, I say, a person like you... why can’t you see reason? I’ve come here to inform you about this kindly, and not only did you not listen, but you’re even chasing me out? He’s a shameless scumbag, and you still want your daughter to go with him? Are you really her mother? YOu can’t actually be her stepmother, right? And you wish that she would marry a liar like him?”If it was anyone else that Claire had said these words to, the other person would have already lashed out. Carey, however, was still the daughter-in-law of a royal family. She had been ingrained with aristocratic etiquette since she was a child. A true educated noble, asking her to raise he
As Dorothy and Daya were looking at each other, none of them gave way. The Coleman family from Missouri’s grand elder, Terrace Coleman, as well as Byakko from the Four Great Princesses, had come to the front of Maple Villa 8.“Grand Elder, this is the place where Alex lives,” Byakko said. “Should I ring the doorbell?”“Ring the doorbell?” The grand elder sneered. “Did we come here as guests?”Upon saying that, he raised his foot and kicked fiercely on the big iron gate of the villa.Boom!It was as loud as an explosion.The two large iron gates weighed over two hundred pounds. Under his destructive power as a Grandmaster, it violently ripped itself off the fence and flew in the air, passing the courtyard’s tens of meters before slamming heavily into the villa. The door and windows were shattered, and even the walls were cracked. Byakko was secretly stunned. It was hard to believe that the power of a Grandmaster could be so frightening. Here, a single individual was comparab
Zoey was anxious when she saw her mother still being held in the air, so she chewed down violently on Terrance’s thigh.“Hmph!”The grand elder let out a cold snort and lightly released a burst of energy outwards.The burst shook off Zoey’s two front teeth.Her petite body also flew backward, and she hit the ground rolling. She came to a stop in the flowerbed nearby, bleeding from her head as she fell unconscious.“Ahhh!” Hailey let out a scream, bursting out in unprecedented power, and kicked Terrance in his crotch. “Ugh!”Though the kick wasn’t enough to send his balls flying, he didn’t have the power of the Mystic armor that Alex had, and he was completely defenseless.Because in his eyes, Hailey was just an insignificant ant.However, he forgot that even an ant bite would hurt if it were at that place.‘Damn it!’ Terrance cursed in his heart. He then gripped Hailey’s neck and smashed her to the ground. Having no intentions of killing Hailey, he didn’t exert much force. O
When Alex saw Dorothy appear in the room and faced Daya for the first time, he felt a huge headache coming on.The extremely frosty look on Dorothy’s face made him feel especially uneasy.He wasn’t sure if he was thinking too much, but ever since the divorce, and although they two had finally broken through, reaching the point where they joined flesh and spirit, where they should have been a step closer than before, it seemed to have had the opposite effect, creating a wall between them instead. They were supposed to be each other’s closest person, but it felt like their souls were not close at all.For example, now, the frosty look on Dorothy’s face made it seem like she had an aura around her that wouldn’t stand to be questioned. “Cough. Dorothy, it’s actually like this…”Just as Alex was about to speak, his phone rang.He was quietly overjoyed when it happened, and thought to himself, ‘This phone call came just at the right time. No matter who it was, I can leave once I pick
“Mom, I’m worried about him. I want to go and see,” Daya said to Carey. That was a Grandmaster from the Coleman family, and now he has hostages in his hand.“I’ll go with you,” said Carey.Alex had gotten involved with the Coleman family of Missouri because of the Stoermer family of Michigan, so how could she just stand by and watch?Thus, the three women of the Stoermer family left as well.Only Claire was left behind looking at the mess on the ground, filled with bafflement.***Woosh!With a flash, Alex appeared in Maple Villa.After he activated his ‘flash-mode,’ he was even faster than an F1 racing car. Running that quickly on the city road, no one could even make out his face, and all they could see was the gust of wind he left behind. He didn’t even need half an hour.In less than ten minutes, he arrived at Maple Villa 8. When he saw how beaten Hailey looked on the ground, with her broken bone protruding from her flesh and blood dripping everywhere, he could feel th
“What the hell?”“What’s going on?”Terrance was dumbfounded, and Alex was also in the same state. It had happened so suddenly that he didn’t even see what had happened. However, the golden feathered arrow was a tricky shot, and it had hit an essential acupoint on Terrance’s right shoulder. It had broken all of the meridians in that arm. In a split second, the hand he had placed on Zoey’s head had been rendered useless.It was impossible for him to kill Zoey with a single blow now.Alex’s first thought was to turn around and see where the golden feathered arrow had come from, but then, a woman’s clear, cold mythical voice floated into his ears. “What are you waiting for? Hurry up and save her!”Alex quivered and regained his senses immediately. The power of thunder broke out in both his legs, and his body blurred, turning into a stream of light that shot toward Terrance.Terrance felt an intense pain in his shoulder, and his right arm became useless. However, he was still a G
The battle was over.It was only then that Alex turned around to look. He found a young woman standing on the treetops like an ancient chivalrous lady. She was dressed in black and looked to be in her early thirties. She looked delicate and well-rounded, a definite peerless beauty in this generation. Except, her expressions were frigid.“Thank you for helping me, Senior.” Unexpectedly, the woman notched and shot an arrow directly at him.The lighting-fast golden feathered arrow was coated with dense Chi as it pierced through the air. Alex’s eyes widened, and his spiritual power burst forth, automatically activating his Mystic armor. The arrow seemed to slow down in his eyes drastically, and he could tell its trajectory.‘It isn’t aimed at me!’ he immediately deduced. The golden feathered arrow grazed his shoulder, hitting Byakko with a ‘thud.’It had shot through his calf.Apparently, when Byakko saw the grand elder killed, she knew that the situation was terrible. She had a
The cold eyes of the young woman in black followed him for a few seconds before she opened her mouth. “I’ve seen you. But, you’ve never seen me.”“Huh...”Alex was stunned.But then, Zoey was now critical. The Zharvakko talismans seemed to have come to life, forming a brilliant blood-red trail and was rushing into her tiny little body. The broken ribs and the wounds on her body started closing up right before their eyes.And the wound on her head also knitted back together very quickly.With the young woman in black’s help, Alex spent only three minutes healing Zoey’s wounds.“Cough, cough!”Zoey had woken up, and her eyes snapped open. She began yelling anxiously, “Let go of my mommy! Let my mommy go…”The little girl’s memories still lingered when her mother was being lifted into the air by Terrance. Then, when she saw that it was Alex in front of her eyes, she cried out and threw herself into his arms. “Uncle, Uncle Alex! You’re finally here! Sob... sob… Mommy is getting bul
