This person was named Gideon Olson, the second strongest in the team and was at intermediate
Mystic rank.
Anna snorted coldly as she thought to herself inwardly, âIf I told you that this is the guy that killed
Terrance, wonât you go out of your mind?â
However, she was also petty and didnât bother explaining the details about Alex, allowing Gideon to
continue poking at the matter. It would be best if Gideon managed to provoke and offend Alex and
make Alex send him flying with a single slap.
However, Alex looked as though he didnât hear a thing, sitting still as a statue on the chair.
As a result, everyoneâs impression of Alex worsened.
âWhat kind of person is it? Heâs still tolerating all that shit. Heâs completely unlike a man! Itâs no wonder
that women have become in charge in the California division.â
âHaha, heâs just an ordinary person. What do you expect him to do? Isnât he just afraid of dying from a
single slap from us?â
âYouâre right!â
Anna snorted coldly. âA bunch of uneducated brats!â
A young man came up to Anna at this time and said in a low voice, âAnna, you said that a young man
was the one who killed Tristan? Is this person called âMaster Alexâ?â
A glint flashed in Annaâs eyes. âYou know about it?â
The young man replied, âI heard from a friend that Master Alex wields the power of thunder and
lightning. Not only is he a master in martial arts, but heâs also a real cultivator, as well as the son-in-law
of the Michiganâs Stoermer family. In fact, it was for the sake of Daya Stoermer of the Stoermer family
that he went against Tristan. Is this information true?â
His words drew everyoneâs eyes and attention, as well as put them in a daze.
Every single one of them came up to him immediately, asking him where he had gotten the information
from and whether or not it was reliable. Even Travis had come over. His brows furrowed when he heard
the words.
The young manâs name was Jamie Dodd.
He replied, âMy source shouldnât have any problems. Itâs from Angela Seay of the Seay family from the
eight great royal families. She saw it with her own eyes, and it shouldnât be false.â
Then, be repeated to them what he had heard.
Gideonâs eyes were wide. âIs there really such a powerful young man? Thatâs really a monster genius
that appears once in a few hundred years! Calling him âMasterâ isnât an exaggeration at all! I really want
to meet him so that my life doesnât feel like itâs in vain.â
Everyone nodded in agreement, admiration clear upon their faces.
âEven if the information is indeed true, you donât have to look it. Some people are skilled at maintaining
their youthful appearance or naturally have a babyish face. Couple with the fact that theyâre cultivators
who are known for fiddling with dodgy things, itâs possible that theyâve also dabbled in sorcery. Thereâs
nothing to admire about someone like that! Alright, enough. Itâs almost time. Letâs go.â
Anna glanced at Alex, feeling amused on the inside. âWhat a bunch of fools!â
They couldnât even tell that the person they were talking about was right in front of their eyes. They
probably needed a new pair of eyes!
***
At the same time, in Amaryllis Tower.
The owner of the tower, Joshua Jones, was talking to a middle-aged, fat man.
âMaster Jones, thank you so much for this time. Here is twenty million. Please take it to have some
tea,â the fat man said with a bright smile upon his face.
âTwenty million to have some tea? Mr. Lee, youâre really extraordinary! Is Stephen Hendrix really worth
twenty million?â Joshua Jones was a bald man, and his temples were prominent, indicating that he was
a master of inner strength. âShall I go and kill him for you?â
âNo, no, no!â The fat man immediately objected. âLet him live. There are still some uses for him!â
âOld Lee, we donât have to beat around the bush. Weâve known each other for so long, what donât we
know about each other? Your pockets are always shut so tightly, but not only did you give us thirty
million as labor fees this time, but you also gave us twenty million on top. This is extremely unlike you.
Now come on, what else is there?â
