Ch. 1591..1600

The Pinnacle of Life Chapter 1591

After her eldest senior glared at her, Jill Sinclair almost fell to her knees.

Seeing such a scene, Derrick Sinclair immediately said, “Herschel Lancaster, what’s the meaning of this? My granddaughter has already explained it just now. Why won’t you believe it? And, you just believe whatever this b*tch Nanami said? Look at this corpse. A witch does it. Can’t you see it?”

It turned out that the eldest disciple was called Herschel Lancaster.

He waved at the grand elder. “I can differentiate between right and wrong. Grand Elder, you don’t have to say so much.”

Derrick had hit a snag. If it were other sects, he, as the grand elder, would have flown into a rage and done something after being offended by a junior like Herschel.

However, Derrick was all talk.

He could not say something too over the line either. That was because Herschel’s cultivation base was too high. It was three points higher than the sect master. He was truly the No. 1 in Hygieia Valley. Although he was not the sect master, everyone knew well that his dignity was more significant than the sect master.

This was strength.

Facing Herschel’s question, Jill wanted to say Shochiku did all of this by colluding with outsiders and so on. However, all these words were stuck in her throat, and she could not say them out loud no matter what.

It seemed that something was stopping her from speaking.

Not only that, she even felt a pang of extreme guilt, as if she would die in the next second if she did not tell the truth. Then, she told every last detail of the incident.

“Fifth Junior saw you coming out of Shochiku’s room last night, so I suspect that Shochiku tried to seduce Big Brother…”

“I called her out with an excuse and slapped her with a whip.”

“I ordered Seventh Junior to defile her, but I didn’t expect her to jump into Witch River…”

Jill revealed everything.

By then, all the fellow disciples of Hygieia Valley were stunned. Never did they expect that everything told by Jill was fake.

She instigated everything that happened.

Herschel’s gaze seemed like a blade as he shouted, “Where are the people from the inquisition?”

“Here!” an elder said.

“How should one be punished for the crime of harming a fellow disciple, deceiving the superiors and subordinates, instigatirrg the entire sect to fight with outsiders, and disregarding the fellow disciples’ lives?”

“According to the law, it’s lynching!”

“Then, what are you waiting for?”

“Yes, sir!”

The members from the inquisition immediately stepped up to capture Jill.

Derrick yelled, “Let me see who dares to make a move on my granddaughter. I’m the grand elder of Hygieia Valley and am second to none after the sect master. Herschel Lancaster, I’m your elder. How dare you disrespect your superior? Today, I, Derrick Sinclair, will give my words here. I’ll kill whoever dares to make a move on my granddaughter!”

Herschel asked, “Are you going your own way?”

Derrick laughed. “So what?”

Herschel shook his head. “Grand Elder, I’ll have others give you a lavish funeral.”

“What did you say?”

Poof!

Squeeze the air, Herschel snapped Derrick’s neck. Jill shouted, horrified, “Grandpa, Grandpa! Herschel Lancaster, how dare you? How dare you kill my grandpa?!”

As Herschel waved his hand, the members of the inquisition immediately took Jill away.

“A nation has its law, and a family has its rules. Hygieia Valley is a place where rules rule it.”

When Luna saw Herschel’s action, she directed her words at Alex. “Hey, look at this. This only seems like a man’s way of doing things, with swift and decisive reactions. You should learn from him properly.”

Alex replied, “Everyone has his style of doing things. What’s there to be learned? I think he’s not old and just right for you. Didn’t you say that you’ve never fallen in love? Since it’s a rare opportunity for you to admire someone so much, go for it! ”

Luna cocked her eyebrows. “It tastes sour, are you jealous?”

Alex was instantly rendered speechless.

“You’re really not a common narcissist.”

“Unfortunately, this man is old-fashioned and speaks like an old fart I don’t like him. I still prefer a younger one. How about you come and date me instead?”

Alex rolled his eyes exaggeratedly. “No, thank you!”

The Pinnacle of Life Chapter 1592

Jill Sinclair was dead. Even Derrick Sinclair, the grand elder, had drawn his last breath.

Herschel Lancaster was decisive in killing people, causing the fellow disciples’ hearts to race wildly in shock. Even the grand elder could be casually killed. This eldest senior was really extraordinarily powerful.

The crowd had dispersed.

Herschel said a few polite words to Alex again. Then, he said, “My Hygieia Valley stands aloof from the worldly affairs, but its rules are stringent. Those who are not the disciples of this sect will be refused entry. Please forgive me, Mr. Rockefeller. I’ll take my leave now!”

Alex said, “Wait!”

“Is there anything else?”

Shochiku, next to him, said, “Big Brother, in fact, Alex and the others specifically came over to seek medicine.”

“So, you’re seeking medicine!” Herschel nodded. “Since you’ve saved Shochiku’s life, naturally, it won’t be a problem to seek medicine. May I know what kind of medicine you’re looking for?”

Alex said, “Dragon Blood Vine!”

Herschel was startled before he looked at Alex suspiciously. “What do you want to do with a Dragon Blood Vine?”

“To cure the poison of the pill of seven poisons and save her sister’s life.”

“I’m sorry, Hygieia Valley doesn’t have a medicinal herb like Dragon Blood Vine.”

Alex activated the Divine Eye and saw through Herschel’s true self. At a glance, Alex could tell that Herschel was lying.

Luna even said, “You’re lying. I know very well that you have this medicinal herb, Dragon Blood Vine. I’ve seen it with my own eyes.”

Herschel glanced at Luna. It could be seen that he did not like Luna. It was for a good reason, too.

Ordinary people could not see the demonic Chi on Luna’s body. However, in the eyes of expert cultivators, it was clear at a glance. In the eyes of most cultivators, demonic cultivation was not something good.

“You people just leave!”

“Even though you’ve saved Shochiku’s life, you also killed my several disciples from Hygieia Valley. I’ll not pursue this matter anymore. It’s considered even.”

“If you keep badgering me, don’t blame me for being rude,” Herschel said expressionlessly. After finishing his words, he glared at Luna.

At the time, Luna was about to have a flare-up. “Even if I can’t get the Dragon Blood Vine, I’ll never give up on it. If you don’t give it to me, I’ll break through by force! What’s so great about an insignificant Hygieia Valley? If you make me upset, I’ll burn all of you!”

Alex was shocked.

Herschel, in front of them, was a Nascent Soul expert.

‘To make such a clamor against him, do you have a death wish?’

Alex hurriedly pulled Luna back and said, “Sorry, I’m sorry. She is only spewing such nonsense because she’s anxious about her sister’s safety. Please don’t be offended!”

“Humph!” Herschel suddenly waved his hand, causing a strong burst of force to land on Luna’s body. In an instant, Luna’s demonic Chi surged and resisted it desperately, but she still could not bear it.

She was sent flying away. As her body was mid-air, she spat a mouthful of blood. With a thud, she fell into Witch River.

“Shochiku, let’s go!” As Herschel pulled Shochiku, he turned around and entered Hygieia Valley. Alex could see clearly that a force field was there. This was also the reason that the others could not enter Hygieia Valley.

“Luna Flores?!”

Alex, who realized that Luna had not floated up to the surface after falling into the water for a long time, immediately rushed over to look for her. Only then did he find her in the water down the river, following the stream. He hurriedly fished her up.

“Are you alright?”

Luna was completely drenched.

As the transparent like white shirt attached to her body, her curvy figure was completely revealed. He could even see the shape of her waist and belly. It was quite a treat to the eyes. Furthermore, from this close-up view, she had a busty bosom and buttock. It was very voluptuous.

“I must avenge this grudge. I’m going to kill him!” Luna shouted.

After shouting, she spat another mouthful of blood. When she raised her head, she saw Alex peeking at her body. She got even angrier. “What’re you looking at?! Get lost!”

The Pinnacle of Life Chapter 1593

Alex let go of his hands.

Luna instantly fell into the river with a splash and even drank two mouthfuls of water by accident. She kept waving her hands in the water and shouted, “Hey, you b*stard! Hurry and pull me up. I have no more strength. Are you trying to drown me?”

Facing a moody witch, it was tough to get along with her.

Alex remained unmoved and said indifferently, “No. If I pull you up, I’ll see your body again for sure. When the time comes, you’ll get upset again. So, you might as well just stay in the river.”

“What? I… I’m injured, and I can’t swim. H-hurry up and save… Ugh…” Luna drank another mouthful of cold water. Hatred welled up in her heart!

However, she felt immense pain in her inner organs once she moved. That blow from Herschel was too powerful. Moreover, it just restrained her demonic power.

Then, she bobbed a few times and sank into the water. Her vision went dark, and her breathing became difficult.

In the end, she thought, ‘Alex Rockefeller, you b*stard. I won’t let you off the hook even if I become a ghost!”

She then passed out.

***

After an unknown period, Luna woke up, opened her eyes, and realized that she was lying on the ground. The surrounding was dark, without a hint of light at all.

‘Am I dead? Is this the netherworld?’

‘I… I just died like that I can’t accept this! Alex Rockefeller, you d*mn b*stard just drowned me alive in the river. I’ll curse you. I’ll curse you that you’ll be an eunuch forever, your wife will elope with someone else, your kid will belong to your neighbor, you won’t die in peace…’ she sobbed.

Luna opened her eyes, but she could not see anything. After cursing for a while, she started crying. ‘Anyway, I’m already dead. Why do I still have to act strong? Can’t I just cry after death?’

“You’re really vicious!”

“It’s no wonder no men dare to court you until now!”

She suddenly heard a man’s voice. It was that b*stard’s, Alex Rockefeller’s!

“I’m not dead yet?!”

Luna touched her body. With a pinch that hurt, she finally confirmed that she was not dead yet, but she was thrown into an unknown place.

She immediately jumped up and realized that her abdomen was still in pain. Only then did she remember that she had suffered a severe internal injury. Herschel’s blow was very harsh and had hurt her to the point that she could not even stabilize her body in the river and sank into it right away.

Then, it was Alex who fished her out of the river in the end.

However, deep down, Luna was still very furious. To her surprise, he waited until she passed out in the river and sank into it before rescuing her, causing her to drink a few mouthfuls of water in the river. She thought that she had died. That kind of dying feeling was uncomfortable.

She fumbled around to get to her feet. Her eyes slowly adapted to the surrounding darkness. She could see something.

Only then did she realize that this place was inside a certain cave. She was lying on a piece of cold rock, with no bedding underneath her body. She did not know to make a fire whatsoever either. Being injured at this moment, she was freezing, and she was still feeling a little dizzy.

‘It can’t be that I’ve injured my brain after being underwater for too long, right?’

As Luna thought about it, she was about to jump up. Her anger toward Alex got even worse.

Walking toward the sound source, only then did she find out that this cave was crooked. She only managed to walk out of the cave after fumbling for a long time. Then, she saw that b*stard Alex had actually made a bonfire outside the cave. He was humming while barbecuing… Two fish that weighed at least six and a half pounds were pitted above the bonfire. At this moment, oil was seeping out the fish, with the fragrance permeating the surrounding area.

Gulp!

Luna had not consumed anything for a day. She was famished and could not bear the hunger any longer. However, she had nowhere to vent her anger.

Seeing him being so cozy, she immediately stopped moving before secretly picking up a wooden stick. Then, she fiercely threw it at him.

The Pinnacle of Life Chapter 1594

Wham!

Crack!

The wooden stick landed hard on Alex’s back.

However, the Force was automatically activated, crushing the wooden stick right away. The wooden stick that was broken into half bounced up fiercely, landing hard on Luna’s forehead.

“Ouch!”

Alex’s spiritual consciousness worked well.

When Luna came out, he already knew it. How could he not realize her sneak attack?

He laughed heartily. “What is this called? It serves you right! You’re severely injured. You’d better save your energy!”

Luna was unbearably indignant. To his surprise, she threw away the wooden stick and pounced onto his back, biting down his neck

“F*ck!”

“Are you a b*tch?!”

Alex was unguarded due to the surprise attack, and his neck bled from the bite.

He had curbed his temper, yet he had never seen such an unreasonable woman like Luna. Even a saint would get infuriated. He grabbed Luna by the arm and turned around ferociously, pinning her to the ground.

“Humph!”

One person stacked on top of the other.

Alex could feel the voluptuousness of her body and that stunning bounciness.

Her expression changed abruptly. “Let me go. What are you trying to do?”

At first, Alex did not want to do anything. It was just a conditioned reflex after being bitten by her. However, he really wanted to give a memorable lesson now. Hence, he did not let her go right away. Instead, he pressed his body even harder onto hers and said with a smile, “You’re such a pretty woman, and I’m a normal man. In this wilderness with no one around, what do you think I’m going to do?”

A hint of panic flashed past Luna’s expression. However, she concealed it soon after.

She pulled out her hand that was initially protecting her private parts and hooked it around Alex’s neck instead. She said while exhaling a fragrant breath, “So, you want to do this! No problem, you don’t use force. I’ll take the initiative and offer my body. Consider it as a gratitude for fishing me out of the river.”

Alex was startled. He was just casually saying it, but he dared not do it for real.

He said, “It’s good if you know it. If I hadn’t fished you out, you would have drowned.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Luna suddenly kissed his lips. Not only that, she even stuck out her tongue.

Alex was instantly shocked.

However, he was not a faithful saint. His body was like an average man’s, and the longing for its savor grew. Furthermore, the strong man who had not done the deed with other women for some time responded vigorously after a few seconds. Such a wilderness gave him a feeling of setting himself free as well…

Converting passivity into an initiative, both his hands also started moving. Soon, he grabbed Luna’s bosom…

He wanted it.

When he was about to conquer Luna under confusion and infatuation, she silently raised her knee.

At that particular moment, she put a great force into it and slammed hard into Alex, hitting the area between his legs.

Crack!

Alex heard a crack, followed by a burst of unparalleled pain.

“Argh!”

He instantly flung away Luna and sat on the ground, with both his hands covering his groin while howling in pain.

That area of his was broken!

This witch had broken it!

Luna got to her feet and laughed heartily. “Scoundrel, how dare you to have lewd thoughts about me. Now, you’re satisfied! It’s broken, right? I’ll turn you into the last eunuch of this century. How about it? Are you satisfied? You should thank me for giving you free surgery!”

The Pinnacle of Life Chapter 1595

Hearing Luna’s laughter and words, Alex snapped at once.

Anger surged, and an intense hatred suddenly arose. There was only one thought in his mind. ‘I am now an eunuch, but I haven’t had a child yet. I’ll have no descendants. Not only that, my wife at home is going to be a grass widow!’

‘How miserable would that life be? When the time comes, my wife will remarry too!’

Roar!

He let out an angry roar. Bearing the immense pain, he abruptly lunged forward and pushed Luna to the ground once again.

Luna was not afraid at all. “What are you going to do? That member of yours is broken. Can it still be used? Since you’re capable, try using it! I’m waiting for you! If you can’t use it, you’re a eunuch! Eunuch, eunuch! D*mn eunuch!”

Alex slammed the ground next to Luna’s head with his fist.

Immediately a huge crater appeared.

The ground where the two people were on even abruptly collapsed.

It could be seen that with the power of Alex’s blow, it would blast Luna’s head into a crushed watermelon if it were to land on her head.

Luna was slightly nervous as well.

However, she deserved to be called the owner of the Sky-Devil Zither, she was full of demonic Chi, and even her personality was devilish. Not only did she not flinch, but she even became aggravated. “What about it? Did I touch on the sore point? Who told you b’tstard to watch me fall into the water without saving me, but you only saved me after I’ve sunk! You even wanted to hit me when I was down by trying to force yourself on me! It serves you right! You’ll be a eunuch for the rest of your life!”

“Let me go!”

“You’re just an eunuch. What’s the point of pinning down a woman like me? If you’re capable, screw me then! Come on, come on. I’ll admire you if you can screw me!”

Alex’s eyes were bloodshot

First, it was due to pain. Secondly, it was due to anger.

Rip!

Alex forcibly tore Luna’s clothes with his hands right away. They had turned into pieces of flying butterflies.

Luna’s body was injured, and she did not have the strength to resist him, but she kept cursing and kicking her legs frantically.

Just then, Alex’s body abruptly sank.

“Ah!” Luna almost could not catch her breath.

There was only one thought in her mind. ‘Impossible, how could this be possible?’

‘He has become an eunuch after his member is broken. How could it still be working?’

However, Alex did not seem to feel that he had recovered to normal. There was only rage in his mind now and the goal of severely punishing this witch. With the bloodshot eyes, he had utterly turned into a wild beast at this moment! Only the most primitive wilderness, as well as the most native conquest of a male, remained in his body. As for Luna’s screams and painful howls, he seemed to have heard all of it at all.

Ten minutes…

Half an hour…

One hour…

Two hours…

After more than two hours, the wilderness had wholly quieted down.

At this moment, Luna had been inhumanely devastated. She had passed out several times due to pain. She fainted and woke up again.

She had a feeling that she had died countless times. Just then, she would feel exhausted if she just slightly moved her fingers.

Other than that, her mind went blank. She thought, ‘This little brute has forced himself on me!’

On the other hand, Alex was in a different state of mind at this moment.

One hour ago, he realized something was not right. He had done such a bestial act! For a man, it was an unforgivable matter. At the time, he seemed to have completely lost his sanity. He just wanted to punish this woman, to make her regret endlessly, and to make her pay the price for her words and actions.

Now that he thought about it carefully, there was a problem with him. At that time, his emotion was affected by a certain kind of energy.

Pain!

It was just one of them.

Rather, it was demonic Chi!

That was right. Alex’s sanity had been affected by Luna’s demonic Chi earlier. As the demonic Chi entered his body, it stimulated the vigorous reaction of the Force in his body. The Force with lightning attribute seemed to have activated a strong chemical reaction at the time. Under the circumstances of sensing his damaged body, it repaired the injury spontaneously right there and then. Hence, Alex managed to recover to normal in a short time after his member was broken.

***

At the same time…

The Pinnacle of Life Chapter 1596

The combination of the two of them caused the spiritual powers of Demonic Chi and the Force to produce chemical reactions continuously. It further intensified Alex Rockefeller’s emotions.

In fact, the lightning attribute spiritual body in his body even evolved. Alex could sense all three parts of his energy core had

been filled. He was about to break through his half-stepped Core Formation stage.

Rumble, rumble, rumble!

Dark clouds began to form in the night sky above them.

Zap, zap, zap!

The air seemed to be filled with electricity. In the layers of clouds, hidden lightning bolts repeatedly rumbled.

‘Is it going to rain?’ Alex silently thought as he looked at Luna Flores, who looked like she had died. He reached out to check her breathing, but he ended up hearing her weak voice. “I’m not dead yet!”

“…”

Alex truly hated her before. He had nearly killed her. However, now, that emotion no longer existed after two hours of venting.

Most importantly, not only did Alex not turn into a eunuch, but he even ended up raping her. His mood had changed entirely.

After thinking for a long while, Alex finally said something. “You can’t blame me. You asked for it,” he said.

Luna’s eyes were bloodshot. She glared at Alex without saying anything.

Meanwhile, Alex looked tip at the sky. “It’s going to rain. Let’s get into the cave. Can you walk on your own?” he asked.

“Mind your own business!” Luna yelled angrily.

Alex pouted. He was just about to forcefully carry her into the cave when a huge lightning bolt suddenly shot down from above.

Boom!

It was terrifyingly loud.

The scariest part was that the lightning bolt didn’t hit the large tree nearby. Instead, it struck Alex directly.

Luna’s body froze in shock. She had witnessed Alex being struck by lightning.

It was such a huge lightning bolt, and it was like a heavenly tribulation. Could someone even survive that?

‘Alex must have been dead!’

Luna didn’t know how to describe how she was feeling. Earlier, she was raped by Alex, but he was struck and killed by a lightning bolt in the blink of an eye. Karma happened a little too fast. She couldn’t even react in time. Most importantly, Luna should’ve been happy about this, but she wasn’t happy at all.

“D*mn!”

Right then, Alex’s body moved a little as he yelled.

He touched himself with both hands. There were still bits of sizzling lightning energy left on the surface of his body.

“I… I’m not dead yet? A f*cking lightning bolt actually struck me!”

The moment the lightning bolt struck Alex, he thought he would be dead for sure. However, in that crucial moment, the shattered Chaos Bead in his mind palace vibrated forcefully, and mysterious energy surrounded his body before sweeping the lightning bolt’s energy away.

Shuffle…

Right then, a golden ray of light descended from the sky and coincidentally fell upon Alex. It also surrounded Luna’s body.

Right after that, thick energy spread across their bodies!

“This..?”

“This is the Golden Light of Lightning Tribulation!” Luna exclaimed.

She looked shocked.

While basking in the Golden Light of Lightning Tribulation, the wounds on her body were visibly healing at a very high rate. Even the severe internal wounds inflicted by Herschel Lancaster were rapidly healing! However, most of the energy entered Alex’s body.

That was because the Golden Light of Lightning Tribulation belonged to him.

At this point, Alex finally realized he was going through his first-ever Core Formation Lightning Tribulation under such circumstances!

He had successfully entered the stage of Core Formation!

The Pinnacle of Life Chapter 1597

When Alex Rockefeller acquired the Legacy of the Ultimate Book of Medicine, he already knew about the existence of the Lightning Tribulation.

This was a path that every cultivator had to go through. Anyone who wanted to get past Divine Transcendence and arrive at Core Formation needed to experience the Lightning Tribulation once. This was a rule of the Path of God, and it was a test for cultivators. Those who couldn’t get through the Lightning Tribulation would end up losing everything.

Meanwhile, those who managed to get through the Lightning Tribulation would acquire the Golden Light of Lightning Tribulation. Not only did the Golden Light of Lightning Tribulation have a healing effect, but it also helped in one’s cultivation.

In reality, Alex had also planned to prepare some stuff for his tribulation. For example, he wanted to prepare some defensive magical treasures that could assist him in the tribulation. However, his plan fell behind the changes he experienced. Before he was even ready, he had a breakthrough in his cultivation after sleeping with Luna Flores. Unable to suppress his cultivation, the Lightning Tribulation was triggered.

But something wasn’t right!

‘Core Formation’s Lightning Tribulation should have nine separate Lightning Tribulations!’

‘I only experienced one. How did I get through it all directly? Even if this was a cheat, this shouldn’t have been the case, right?’

‘Could it be… The Chaos Bead taking effect?’

Alex thought about what Yuno once told him. He said that the Chaos Bead could protect one from heavenly tribulations. The Lightning Tribulation was also considered one type of heavenly tribulation. In that case, the remaining eight Lightning Tribulations were possibly avoided because of the Chaos Bead.

Clearly, Luna was no stranger to the Lightning Tribulation. “Why did you only have one Lightning Tribulation?” She looked at Alex and asked.

Naturally, Alex wouldn’t tell her about the Chaos Bead. Even if the two of them had sex, she probably wouldn’t take it too seriously based on this demonic woman’s personality. In fact, she might even have secretly wanted to kill him!

“It’s probably because you’re a demonic cultivator! You have affected my Lightning Tribulation,” Alex said.

Luna frowned.

She was a demonic cultivator, and she also had Lightning Tribulations. Moreover, her Lightning Tribulations were even scarier than what ordinary cultivators experienced. Logically speaking, if Alex’s Lightning Tribulation were affected by her, it would’ve

been even more ferocious. However, he managed to get past it in a single attempt, and the Golden Light of Lightning Tribulation descended upon him.

Nothing could explain this.

“Also, I didn’t do that on purpose earlier. Your demonic cultivation affected my consciousness. Hence, don’t expect me to take any responsibility!” When Alex said this, he felt like a b*stard.

Luna laughed coldly before jumping to her feet.

The Golden Light of Lightning Tribulation’s healing effect was shockingly good. As long as one was still alive, one would be able to recover fully.

Hence, very few cultivators got sick after achieving Core Formation.

“Hahaha!” Luna started laughing loudly.

“Responsibility? That’s truly funny. Do you think I’m a stupid woman like that? You raped me. I’d only want you to take responsibility if I’m brain-dead!”

“Your Golden Light of Lightning Tribulation saved my life. We‘re even now!”

“However, the two things that you owe me have not changed,” Luna said after a pause.

Alex shrugged. He quickly picked up his clothes from the ground and put them on one at a time.

Fortunately, he took off his clothes when he battled against Luna. Otherwise, all his clothes would’ve been burned to ashes. All sorts of pills in his fanny pack would’ve all gone to waste.

“What about mine?” Luna asked.

“What?” Alex asked.

“Clothes!” she yelled.

Her clothes had been torn apart long ago.

When she came with him, she didn’t bring any clothes to change into. Now, she was completely naked. It seemed very awkward.

Alex happened to have an extra set of clothes in his fanny pack.

“Do you want mine?” Alex asked.

“Give it to me!”

Alex tossed some clothes over to Luna. After that, he looked at the grilled fish on the bonfire. After such a long period had elapsed, it was completely burned!

However, the hunger pangs felt horrible. He had no choice but to catch more fish. Alex would clean his body up while he was at it. His entire body was covered in sweat and blood. He couldn’t even tell whose sweat and blood it was.

After an hour, Alex grilled two fish. He came rather fully prepared, and he even brought salt with him. After that, he gathered some wild herbs to add to the mix.

The fish he grilled turned out very delicious.

The Pinnacle of Life Chapter 1598

“Do you want some?” Alex Rockefeller asked.

“What do you think? I want both!” Luna Flores regained her strength. She then grabbed all the grilled fish through the air. “If you want to eat, go and catch new ones,” she said.

With that, Luna returned to the cave with the grilled fish.

Alex smacked himself on the head. He didn’t have any other choice.

In the night, Alex stayed in the front half of the cave. Meanwhile, Luna stayed in the back half of the cave. Alex didn’t plan to sleep because he was afraid that the female demon might suddenly do something to him while he was asleep.

However, later in the night, Luna called him in.

Alex lit up a fire. “Why are you not sleeping in the middle of the night, and why did you ask me to come over?” he asked.

Luna sat in a cross-legged manner. “Since I cannot sleep, and neither can you, let’s discuss how we can get the Dragon Blood Vine.”

“Aren’t you tired?” Alex asked.

“Cows die from exhaustion, but the field is evergreen. Haven’t you heard of this saying?” Luna said.

“Oh, but the field does get all dried up,” Alex retorted.

Wham!

Luna reached for a piece of rock and forcefully threw it at Alex. Fortunately, Alex managed to catch it.

“Herschel Lancaster is a Nascent Soul expert. When he hit you during the day, he was prepared to kill you. If you didn’t have a protection amulet with you, you wouldn’t have been able to escape! Even so, you’ve been terribly injured. It took me great effort to save your life,” Alex said. He sat about ten meters away from Luna.

“I didn’t expect this either. When did Herschel become a Nascent Soul expert?” Luna was also feeling bothered by it, but she didn’t want to give Alex an easy time. “If you knew I was severely injured, why were you still so rough?” Luna asked.

“My mind was influenced by your demonic Chi. If you hadn’t attacked me, this wouldn’t have happened! But I must thank you. Your Demonic Chi helped in my spiritual power’s evolution. That’s why I was able to break through to Core Formation,” Alex said.

Luna didn’t reply to Alex.

To be honest, she also made some progress. Alex’s spiritual power also increased the level of her demonic powers.

“Alright, let’s drop the matter. Neither ofus will bring it up again. I’ll just pretend that a dog had bitten me,” Luna said.

“Alright. I’ll also pretend that a dog had bitten me,” Alex said.

“… I’m going to kill Herschel,” Luna said.

“What? You were nearly killed earlier. You’re no match for him,” Alex said.

“Haven’t you achieved Core Formation? We’ve got hope now. If we want to get the Dragon Blood Vine, we can’t circle Herschel. The only way we‘ll succeed is if we kill him,” Luna said.

“What if another Nascent Soul shows up?” Alex asked.

“No way? Do Nascent Souls grow on trees?” Luna asked.

“If a disciple could achieve Nascent Soul, what about his master? I have another solution. If we can’t go rough, we’ll use a soft approach… We’ll steal it! Dragon Blood Vines are buried under the ground. Nobody will notice if we stole one.”

“Hmm. How do we steal it?”

After that, the two of them discussed in detail.

Their discussion ended in relative silence.

The next day, they proceeded with the plan they had come up with, figuring out the defensive patterns around Hygieia Valley. They’d then wait until it was nighttime to act.

However, at approximately ten o’clock in the morning, two ferries showed up on Witch River.

The ferries stopped at the Hygieia Valley’s dock. Close to one hundred people got off the ferries, and none of them seemed ordinary. Most importantly, they were all women.

A middle-aged woman shouted, “Floral Valley has arrived! Master Brahms, are you all prepared for the pill-making competition that takes place once every three years?”

Her voice rumbled throughout Hygieia Valley like the sound of thunder.

The Pinnacle of Life Chapter 1599

Right then, Alex Rockefeller and Luna Flores studied the geography of Hygieia Valley in the surrounding area. They were trying to figure out the secrets of Hygieia Valley’s outer spell formations.

Luna knew nothing about spell formations, and she could only rely on Alex for this. Meanwhile, Luna stood guard nearby to warn him of any dangers. Although the two of them had sex, they felt even more estranged.

Alex was feeling a little troubled on the inside. ‘How did I end up sleeping with this demonic woman?’

Although they had agreed to call it a tie, Alex still felt concerned about this matter. If Dorothy Assex found out about his ridiculous behavior, Alex feared that she might make him pay for it clearly.

‘I shouldn’t have come with her!’

‘Most importantly, I’m worried about Martiny Mayer finding out. If she finds out about this, she might even rid me of my manhood!’ Alex thought.

However, right then, Alex and Luna heard the voice from the dock.

“What’s going on? Are people from Floral Valley here?” Alex asked.

“How am I supposed to know?” Luna asked with a pout.

“Go and have a look,” Alex said.

Luna frowned. However, she knew that she was cooperating with Alex now. She really was the only person who could do it. “Keep investigating. Don’t slack off,” she said.

After saying that, Luna leaped into the air and headed over to the dock.

When Alex saw how Luna wore men’s clothes, making her look two sizes larger, and how she was walking weirdly, he couldn’t help but laugh again.

Soon, Luna returned.

“Two ferries arrived at the dock. Over a hundred women got off. They call themselves Floral Valley, and they want to compete against Hygieia on pill-making,” she said.

Alex was stunned for a moment. “Over a hundred women and no men?”

“No,” Luna said.

“That really is Floral Valley!” Alex said.

“Humph. Do you want to become their only male disciple? That way, you can rape all sorts of different women every night, right?” Luna asked.

Alex was honestly finding it a little difficult to bear her snarky comments. “I don’t need your help here. You can go back. I’ll give Freya Mayer a call when I locate the Dragon Blood Vine,” he said.

“What do you mean? Are you saying I’m a bother?” Luna asked angrily.

“Don’t overthink. I just feel that having too many people around will make us an easy target. It’d be easier if I worked alone. On top of that, breaking spell formations is a technical task. You don’t know anything about it either. If you accidentally activate a spell formation, all our efforts would go to waste,” Alex said.

“That wasn’t what you said last night, ” Luna said.

“Fine, I’ll be straightforward. I can’t stand you,” Alex bared his cards. He felt too exhausted on the inside.

“Hehe. You really are a man. You bedded me last night, but you already can’t stand me now. If you can’t stand me, don’t sleep with me!” Luna exclaimed.

“Look at you. Your words are always spiteful. Do you think I willingly slept with you? It was all your demonic Chi’s fault,” Alex said.

“That’s an excuse,” Luna said.

“Fine. What exactly do you want? We’ve already slept together, and we can’t go back in time. What do you want as compensation? I’ll give it to you!” Alex exclaimed.

“Call me ‘Queen’,” Luna said.

“What?”

“I said, call me ‘Queen’,” she repeated.

Alex was dumbfounded. ‘What kind of request was this?’

After looking at Luna a few times, Alex finally spoke again. “Fine, fine. Alright, alright. I’ll call you ‘Queen’. Queen, are you happy now? About that, Queen, can you please go back?”

Luna seemingly smiled as she reached out to touch his chin. She lifted his chin slightly.

“What I mean is, from now on, I am the Queen, and you are my servant. You must obey me,” Luna said.

“What? That’s impossible!”

“Okay. Since you disagree, let’s break things off. I’ll go back and tell your wife that you raped me! I’ll make everyone find out about your heinous act. They’ll know what kind of person you really are,” Luna instantly said coldly.

Alex’s body froze. He felt as cold as ice.

A thought occurred to him. ‘Should I just kill her?’

After killing her, Alex could blame everything on Herschel Lancaster. Anyway, Herschel nearly killed her the day before. However, Alex was soon shocked by his thoughts.

He shouldn’t think like this.

Never mind that he would end up being killed in retum, but even if he succeeded, the Mayer family would still bother him. Most importantly, an action like this would cause Alex to lose his sense of humanity. He’d fall completely onto the path of evil. In the end, he’d walk further and further down this path of mistakes until he eventually reached hell.

Alex was shocked back to his senses. He even felt a little soaked in the back.

The Pinnacle of Life Chapter 1600

Alex Rockefeller took a deep breath. “Do whatever you want. Besides, the innocent will not be affected by slander. My wife will believe in me,” he said.

“Don’t be so sure. I haven’t finished yet! I don’t need you to call me ‘Queen’ in public. I’m only asking you to do that when we’re alone. I’ll still respect you when outsiders are around! Oh, right. I forgot to tell you. My mother is a powerful demon. If she finds out that a man has defiled her only daughter, let’s see if she’ll kill your entire family,” Luna Flores said.

“…”

Alex nearly couldn’t breathe. After stunned for a long while, he finally made up his mind.

‘I’m going to overcome this with a soft approach! I’m going to use my body… Oh, no! I mean, I’m going to use my gentleness to conquer you, you demonic woman! I’m going to put on a big show!’ Alex thought.

Ba-dump!

Alex kneeled on one leg and hugged Luna’s thigh. “My beloved queen!”

“That’s too fake. Try again,” Luna said.

“Queen, your majesty!”

“Again!” Luna said.

“Greetings, Queen!”

“One more time…”

“Queen, your thigh is so smooth. It’s the smoothest thigh in the world!” Alex said.

This time, Luna was satisfied. She pulled him up by his chin. “That’s a smart decision. Don’t worry. You won’t regret being with me! I’ll offer you benefits occasionally.”

After saying that, Luna kissed Alex gently on one corner of his lips.

Of course, Luna could tell Alex was just acting. However, she didn’t mind! In fact, there was another plot she was planning that Alex didn’t know.

“It’s a good thing for us that Floral Valley showed up now for the competition. While Hygieia Valley’s people are busy dealing with Floral Valley, we’ll use the opportunity to sneak inside and steal the Dragon Blood Vine!” Luna said as she laughed.

“Do it well, Alex. Once we get the Dragon Blood Vine, I’ll reward you,” Luna said.

“What’s my reward, Queen?” Alex asked.

“How about rewarding you with a child?” Luna asked.

“Pfft!” Alex nearly puked blood. He was horrified.

After that, Alex recalled that he didn’t practice safe sex last night amidst the excitement. If Luna was ovulating, wouldn’t it be very easy for her to conceive? Alex still felt very confident in his sperms. At least, each of them would be sufficiently potent.

What would Alex do if Luna ended up having nonuplets?

“What’s the matter? Are you not happy with that?” Luna asked.

“No, no. Queen, you are the most beautiful woman in the world. Your children would surely be the cream of the crop. However… You’re still so young and beautiful, and you haven’t enjoyed the best life has to offer yet. Your life would be a little too boring if you get dragged down by children!” Alex said.

“I’m already thirty three,” Luna said.

“Huh?” Alex’s eyes widened. He felt as if his heart was bleeding.

That meant he had slept with an older woman!

“Why the loud reaction? Do you want to expose us? Or are you complaining that I’m old?” Luna asked.

“Why would I? I like older women, ” Alex said.

Luna stared at Alex and chuckled. “Go on and crack the spell formation. Those people are already getting a move on. We won’t have to wait until tonight! Also, if the chance arises, I must kill Herschel Lancaster!”

After over half an hour, Alex located the weakest point of the spell formation. After that, with the help of the innate spell formation from Dragon’s Bane of Thirty-Six, Alex used it as a temporary formation plate to break the spell formation. He then silently crawled through the hole.

“Why don’t you wait for me here?” Alex asked when he saw Luna following him.

“What if you bump into Herschel? Can you beat him on your own? You’re my male servant. I must be responsible for you,” Luna said.

“Fine! Remember to cover up your face!” Alex said.

“Why should I cover my face?” Luna asked.

“Your face is too pretty. I’m afraid you might attract men’s attention,” Alex said.

“You learn fast,” Luna said.

After much work, the two of them finally made it inside Hygieia Valley.

As soon as they jumped off a boulder, they suddenly realized that another masked person had also jumped. The three of them were less than three meters apart from each other. Suddenly, they looked at each other with widened eyes.

“Who are you?”

“And you guys… Who are you?”
