âAh, Mom!â Luna Flores rushed over and tried to lift the Requiem Clock.
However, how could she lift an artifact like the Requiem Clock just because she wanted to?
The Requiem Clockâs stance seems to say, âIf I move even an inch, itâll be considered my loss!â
Meanwhile, Alex felt his head was about to explode. Never did he expect that the woman he had
suppressed would turn out to be Lunaâs mother, the Old Moon Devil!
However, she looked so young. Even if she had stated her identity, who would believe her?
More importantly, who could just endure it when the first thing she did was to come up and yell that she
was going to kill him?
Luna couldnât lift the Requiem Clock. Only then did she ask Alex, âWhy is my mom trapped in it?â
Alex spread out his arms.
âYou did it?â
âShe tried to kill meâ¦â
âWhat?â
Luna blinked and whispered, âT-then, letâs keep her locked up in there.â
Alex shook his head. âWe canât lock her any longer, this is the Requiem Clock. As time goes on, your
motherâs soul will disintegrate.â
âWhat?! T-T-Then, hurry up and take it off! Take it off!â
Alex operated the Requiem Clock with divine power and put it back into his mind palace.
At this time, the Old Moon Devil inside was already infuriated, but she was also battered and
exhausted. She didnât even have the strength to curse him. The Requiem Clock was a Buddhism
treasure. It was already considered a powerful feat that she could endure it for so long.
However, she had also suffered heavy losses. She had lost countless demons.
âThat⦠Aunt, Iâm very sorry. If you had identified yourself earlier, it wouldnât have come to this. I have
some healing pills, you should take a few first!â
The Old Moon Devilâs name was Metztli Flores. She was the other wife of the Flying Eagles Academyâs
principal, Gilbert Henderson.
She slapped away the pills that Alex handed over to her. âNo need! Get out of here, I donât want to see
your face!â
Metztli had heard that Alex had killed Maxwell Lawrence, the future son-in-law whom she had been
eyeing, and had even slept with her daughter Luna, so she ran over here in a hurry to settle the score
with him.
Then, she learned that Alex was Jade Benmoreâs disciple. She couldnât kill him, but she wanted to
teach him a proper lesson. Who would have known that she would be the one to be taught a lesson
instead?
And, she had been severely reprimanded too. It would be strange if she was happy!
At this time, Jade had stood up and was laughing softly. âMetztli, you canât beat him, so whatâs the use
of talking so angrily like that? On the contrary, my disciple has helped you see Maxwell Lawrenceâs true
nature. You should thank him instead! In fact, I told you before that the Lawrence family was ambitious,
and Maxwell Lawrence wasnât someone good, but you refused to believe it.â
Metztli snorted and ignored Jadeâs words.
Jade said, âMetztli, you said before that you would only lash out once. Now youâve done it once, there
will be no second chance! Otherwise, I wonât sit back and watch you bully my disciple⦠Oh, but itâs not
like you can beat him anyway.â
âYou⦠Jade, his cultivation has nothing to do with you.â
âHeâs still my disciple, and he calls me âMasterâ.â
âI think you just covet a man thatâs so much younger than you.â
âF*ck off!â
âMom, Second Aunt, please stop arguing,â Luna said.
Metztli shot her a glare. âIsnât it for your sake? What good does he have? He already has a wife.â
Luna weakly said, âDaddy also has several wives. At least, you canâ t beat him!â
Metztli was about to cough up blood in rage. This was her biological daughter.
âPeople say that daughters are the apple of their parentsâ eyes, loving and filial. I think youâre my
poison instead!â
Luna hugged Alexâs arm. âItâs alright, Morn, he can help to detoxify you.â
Metztli said, âStay away from me. Iâm not your mother!â
âFine, I have a few mothers anyway.â
ââ¦â
Alex looked towards Jade instead and asked, âHow are you feeling now, Master?â
Jade stretched her limbs and said, âIt feels great now. I seem to be a little stronger than before.â
Alex said with a smile, âThatâs great.â
