âWhat?! The grand elder of the Missouri Colemans is dead?â
The patriarch of the Stoermer family, Zayn, was in a massive shock once he received the call and
almost threw the phone on the ground. However, he soon heard about how Terrance had gone to
California to look for Alex, wanting to destroy his entire family.
Instead, he had been killed by Alex. Zayn was furious when he heard that. âThis Terrance, he really dug
his own grave. Has he gone senile from his old age? When he was here, he could barely hold onto his
life under Alexâs Masterâs hands. Now, heâs gone to die. Thatâs good. You reap what you sow after all.â
Xyla had received the news before this and said, âI heard the information that the Coleman family
released before this, saying that the appearance of Alexâs master at Stoermer residence was just an
illusion. Thatâs probably the reason why this Terrance dared to come look for him!â
âHmph! There must have been something wrong with his brain. How did Carlos die then? He saw it
happening with his own eyes, and heâs forgotten about it so soon? Who else can he blame for his own
death?â
âDad, itâs like this now. Master Alex is really furious. The Coleman family has not only harmed his
godsister, but even his godsisterâs five-year-old daughter was almost killed by Terranceâs vicious hands.
This vengeance, we have to avenge it⦠Then, he asked us what the meaning of our Stoermer family
is.â
Zayn Stoermer was an ambitious man in the end, after all!
After thinking about it for less than ten seconds, he immediately made a decision. âDuring this period,
the other royal families have questioned the fact that Iâm a Grandmaster, in the open as well as
secretly. Theyâre all just frogs under the well. How could they know about how great Master Alex truly
is? Even at my level of Grandmaster, it is still only equivalent to an intermediate level. Hmph, Terrance
was disrespectful to Master Alex, wanting to kill his entire family. I will go to the Colemans and seek
justice for Master Alex. Xyla, thank Master Alex on my behalf.â
The Colemans had just lost a Grandmaster. And the news had yet to spread.
For the Stoermer family to act for Alexâs sake, it was also tantamount to making the first move. Doing
so would reap great benefits for them.
The eight royal families had an agreement that they wouldnât kill each other.
But in reality, this thousand year old rule had long been rendered useless. As long as someone found a
proper excuse, they could put any other party to death. However, after Tristan killed Careyâs nephew
and tried to use Daya as a natural furnace under the pretext of taking her as his wife, that itself was a
good enough reason for war, and the other royal families had no right to interfere.
As long as they didnât exterminate the entire Coleman family, no one would say anything.
After hanging up the call, Zayn immediately summoned the family. âGive the order that all martial artists
above Mystic rank must gather and follow me to collect the debt owed to us by the Missouri Colemans!â

In the meantime, Alex was saying to Carey, âAunt, I need to ask you for a favor. Can you find out
something for me within the hour? Where is Tristan staying? He should be in California right now.â
Carey nodded. âDonât worry. This is a small and easy matter to handle. I will find out where he is in less
than an hour.â
She had no complaints about Alex giving her instructions and received them positively.
To her, Tristan Coleman was an existence that made her blood boil with resentment.
The man had killed her brotherâs only son without any reason, and she would never forget the look her
elder brother had while he cried bitterly in pain.
Alex then gave a call to Waltz. âLittle Waltz, come down with Azure to Maple Villa 8!â
And then he called Michelle. âBring your grandfather to Maple Villa 8!â
And the final call was to Nathan. âWhere are you?â
âMaster, I just returned to California. I went to one of the volcanic mountains, and I had quite a good
harvest.â
âCome to Maple Villa. I have something I need you to do!â
These people were the strongest on Alexâs team. However, after what happened today, especially
since he had met Aunt Rockefeller, the young woman in black, he suddenly felt a strong sense of
urgency. Initially, he had been gleeful with his strength, thinking that the pinnacle of life was not far from
his reach. Whatever Grandmaster it was, they werenât even that hard to deal with. But today, Aunt
Rockefeller had directly criticized him and called him a waste of space.
What was that supposed to mean?
It meant Aunt Rockefeller had seen an existence way more powerful and awesome than what he was.
Judging from the burst of strength and how she had shared her spiritual power with him through her
palm, Aunt Rockefellerâs cultivation power beat his by at least three times.
Hence, he needed to improve his strength as soon as possible.
Not only his own but also everyone who was under him.
