It was horrible. The law power was smashed into pieces, and the space around the area shook as it
formed a void within the cracks.
Everyone there started backing away, visibly frightened. The space around Donovan had turned into a
vacuum that encompassed a 500 meter radius.
Alex clutched his left side. Although he dodged with great speed, he was still hurt by that white light. It
had almost shot through his intestines, and Neelaâs scales couldnât block it either.
That beam was definitely shining at over ten times the speed of sound.
âWhat was that?â
âHow was it that powerful?â
Alex was slightly shaken. The sky swordâs power was way overwhelming. It was completely out of his
hands. Such power only meant that it was stronger than an Imminent Immortal. Even the Yadav
Akaaran Buddha was no match for this.
Moreover, this light had alarmed the Mystic Maiden in his mind palace. Speaking to him via telepathy,
she said, âYouâre in big trouble!â
âWhat trouble?â Alex asked.
âJust wait!â
Moments later, Donovanâs body exploded with light that glowed with an intense aura, as if a mystical
master had descended onto this planet. Within the light, a young madame floated. Her eyebrows were
raised, seemingly enraged. âWho wants to kill my son?â
A woman, who claimed that Donovan was her son, was standing up for him. This meant that the
woman was his mother, Dolores Orlando.
Donovan was puzzled as well, he had never seen this woman before. He had never had a mother in
his entire life. However, she seemed strong, and she popped up out of nowhere just to save him. This
was exactly what he needed right now, so this was great.
âThat means⦠Yet another chance!â
âWho cares who she is! Who cares why she abandoned me! As long as she can help, I donât mind
calling her my mom!â
âHim!â Seeming quite excited, one of the Peak Lords pointed toward Alex and yelled. âHe wants to kill
our sect master! This man is also extremely arrogant and evil! He stole the sect masterâs fiance and
treasures. Heâs our sect masterâs arch enemy!â
Upon hearing this, the young madam asked, âSect master? Isnât Gabriel Simpson the sect master?â
The Peak Lord replied, âUhm⦠The new sect master has already taken over. Sect Master Simpson
retired.â
He didnât dare say that Donovan had murdered Gabriel because he had no idea what the young
madamâs relation to Gabriel was.
Alex spoke up.
âRetired? Bullshit, they literally overthrew him. All of you worked together to kill your sect master. Oh,
and your little son here was the murderer of his own father. Tsk.. tskâ¦â
âDonât spout such nonsense!â snapped Donavan. âMom, why would I kill Dad? He killed him! If it
werenât for him, why would Dad even die?â
He even called them his parents naturally, not feeling any guilt within his heart. To him, it didnât matter
what he had to do, so long it was of help to him. He could even grovel at her feet, let alone calling them
his parents.
This was going exactly the way he wanted. The young madam was flattered by how Donovan called
out to her. Her expression softened as she turned to him. âOh my dear son, you have suffered so
much! Normal people couldnât possibly kill their own father, and anyone who could is unique!â
âMy son, Mom knew that you would kill Gabriel someday⦠And I donât blame you. This is just what we
call fate. Once youâve overcome this obstacle, your life would be perfect.â
This left everyone wide-eyed and mouth agape.
She then turned to Alex, her eyes becoming tremendously cold. âI donât care who you are, but youâre
dead meat if you dare to try and kill my son. I will find you, no matter where you run. Everyone here
must die. This is a promise from me, Dolores Orlando! just you wait. Your death is near.â
The womanâs aura was immense, growing stronger by the second, making everyone want to fall to their
knees. However, Alex was quite used to threats at this point. He immediately caught on that she
couldnât do anything to him right now. No matter how powerful she was, her current appearance was
not her true form.
âF*ck. Why should I be scared of her, then? Even if I die, Iâll die a warrior!â
âYou old hag. Who are you trying to scare, huh?!â
âBuzz off now, will you?!â
Alex lifted the Xavion sword and swung it harshly.
