The Pinnacle of Life Chapter 2241

Ynes Larkin’s heart was about to jump out of her chest. Her face drained of blood and was pale white. “No, it’s not like that. You. I… I will give you an explanation, but you need to give me some time.”

Seeing how nervous Ynes was, Hermione Yggdrasill almost couldn’t hold it in and was about to laugh out loud.

Just then, a delicate woman’s voice came from behind her.

“Time? Give you some more time to find your adulterer to rendezvous, and give you some time so that you can conceive a child by then? Do you think you can? And you still have the gall to stand in front of my senior brother?”

The one who came was none other than the Little Cat Fairy from Sun Shrine. A childlike adult little lolita. Even her voice was like a little girl. But the words that came out of her mouth were just pure evil.

Mica then ran over and hugged Alex’s arm. She plastered her body against his, and even her chest was tightly pressed up against him. Her voice was coyishly as she said, “Senior, do you know, this woman is simply too shameless. She kept a man in the forbidden grounds, doing all sorts of nonsense all day in there. She’s simply a cheap b*tch. If it were me, I’d cut her down with one swing of my sword.”

Alex was a little awkward because of her.

However, he wasn’t sure how close the real Donovan was to this lolita, so he didn’t dare to act rashly or pull his hand out from this tender place. “Hearing is not believing. Seeing is believing. Rumors shouldn’t be trusted.”

The lolita said, “Senior, earlier in public, she had admitted to it. She also gave her bra to that man! Samson Hendrik and some others even publicly tried to bid for it. Isn’t that so shameful? She also disgraced you with that display.”

Ynes really couldn’t stand to stay any longer, and she said, “Whether or not you believe me, I know my conscience is clear. So if you want to back out from this engagement, I’m fine with that too. Whatever.”

With that, she turned and ran away.

The lolita said to Alex, “Do you hear that? She obviously has a guilty conscience.”

Alex waved his hand dismissively. “We’ll talk about this matter another time. By the way, do you have an invitation for the auction this evening?”

“Of course!” the lolita said.

“Can you give it to me?”

“Huh? Senior, don’t you have one too?”

“I’ve lost it!” Alex’s heart almost burst out of his chest.

“Having just mine is fine then. One invitation can get two people in.”

“I want to bring her in with me.” Alex pointed to Hermione.

“She’s… Who is she?”

“Don’t ask too many questions. You’ll understand when the time comes.”

The lolita looked at Hermione. Because of the makeup, Hermione didn’t look beautiful at all, and the lolita pursed her lips. She didn’t understand how a woman like this could attract her senior brother, and it was most likely that this woman served another purpose, such as… A treasure appraiser. So, she felt rejuvenated as she said, “I’ll go and bring Seventh Brother’s invitation. He doesn’t want to go in anyway.”

Soon, the invitation changed hands.

After dusk, around six to seven in the evening, Alex and Hermione, plus the lolita who couldn’t be shaken off, as well as another disciple of Sun Shrine, entered the auction hall together.

The auction house was incomparably huge. There wasn’t any problem accommodating tens of thousands of people.

All the way in, Alex found many people greeting him, both young and old. They all greeted him ‘Young Sect Master’ respectfully, and some even flattered him.

And, he also saw Samson Hendrik. Samson, a huge gossiper, opened his mouth immediately to say, “Donovan, not bad, not bad. Wearing the hat of being cuckolded on a mighty head really does look better.”

The lolita was furious. “Hey, Hendrik, if you keep talking nonsense, I’m going to cut out your tongue with scissors! It’s that b*tch, Ynes Larkin that doesn’t know how to behave and is disloyal! What has that got to do with my senior?!”

The Pinnacle of Life Chapter 2242

Samson Hendrik was still all smiles and laughing. He already had a problem with Donovan Orlando, so with this opportunity presented right in his face, how could he let it go?

“Oh my, Little Cat Fairy, I’m also doing this for your sake. Who doesn’t know about you liking Donovan? Now that Ynes has found her true love, you can fill the empty spot in your senior’s heart. Or, do you not like your senior anymore and have found someone else?”

The lolita panicked and hurriedly said, “Who said so? My senior is the only one for me!”

Samson’s voice was loud, and everyone around them could basically hear every word from him. Adding on the fact that Donovan and Ynes Larkin were the topics of discussion, many people gathered very quickly.

“What, what?”

“Holy Maiden Ynes is in love with someone else? Are you serious? Young Sect Master Orlando, how about you consider my daughter? My daughter talks about you every day!”

“How can your daughter compare to my disciple? My disciple is talented and beautiful, peerless in the entire world…”

The sudden change in topic took Alex by surprise, and Hermione spoke through telepathy, ‘Sir, do you want to earn a big sum of money in one fell swoop?’

‘How?’ Alex was taken aback.

Hermione replied, ‘You can pretend to choose another cultivation partner and let them sign up for it. But, those who sign up need to pay up the dowry first. Then, once everything is settled and chosen, those who are not chosen will be refunded the dowry. But, since you’re not the real Donovan, it will be the real one that refunds the money and has nothing to do with you.’

‘Isn’t that a fraudulent marriage?’

Alex rubbed his chin, considering whether or not he wanted to do it. Anyway, he was Donovan’s enemy, not a friend. So it would be fun to prank him a little. However, the lolita didn’t give him a chance to.

She pulled Donovan away and said, “What about the auction? Seriously, all of you. Did you think this is a matchmaking event? Be careful Sanctuary World doesn’t revoke any of your qualifications to attend the auction.”

Alex didn’t say anything, letting himself be pulled away obediently. The more he said, the more he would accidentally reveal himself.

However, the softness of the lolita pressing up against him was messing with his mind. Wasn’t this a little too much enthusiasm? Could Donovan really want to have his way with his junior sister?

But, Alex was completely unaware that the lolita was also in the same state right now.

In the past, Donovan wouldn’t let her touch him, much less hug him like this. He would push her away once she showed excessive intimacy. However, he didn’t say a single word of protest now. Did that mean that her senior brother was beginning to accept her?

The most accurate way to describe her feelings right now was that she had butterflies in her stomach.

Soon, the auction began. After a few opening remarks, the auction session started.

“The first item is a Dragon Bone Sword. According to expert appraisal from our Sanctuary World, we have determined that this sword has been passed down from ancient times. It is likely to be a god’s weapon, based on the divine powers that originate and fluctuate through it.

“The starting bid is one million spiritual stones!”

Alex froze for a moment. He didn’t expect the first item brought out would already be something he was familiar with. But, he had the Dragon’s Bane of Thirty-Six in his body, and he knew it very well after all.

Upon a closer look, he couldn’t help but sneer.

This so-called Dragon Bone Sword was far much worse compared to his own. Each of his Dragon Bone swords was made from the inverse bone of an actual dragon. Each dragon only had one inverse bone in their bodies, which was the essence of their bones.

And this sword on display was made from a random piece of bone. Not to mention, there weren’t any ancient runes that made up any formations on the sword.

This kind of thing, the gods would clearly not want it!

“One million two hundred thousand!”

“One million five hundred thousand!”

The Pinnacle of Life Chapter 2243

“Two million…”

Finally, this so-called true Dragon Bone Sword was sold to a middle-aged man for 3.5 million spiritual stones.

Alex heard Neela’s voice, ‘This is not a dragon bone at all, but a piece of Champsosaurus bone. That’s definitely not a dragon.’

Alex smiled and didn’t say anything.

The second and third displayed items didn’t interest Alex until the fourth item was taken out when the Chaos Tree immediately sent out a rustling sound. It shook continuously, more intense than he ever felt before.

The shaking even affected Alex’s heart, making it tremble and whatnot.

‘What’s going on?’

‘The Chaos Tree has never shaken so much before, not even when it was faced with the Chaos Beads, and it just gave a gentle reminder then.’

‘So, this fourth item is definitely not ordinary.’

At this moment, the host above said, “The next item to be auctioned is a piece of wood. It looks very ordinary. However, our appraisers have found that we cannot identify its properties and specific materials because divine consciousness can’t penetrate it, swords can’t pierce it, fire nor water can’t destroy it. Although we don’t know its true function, we believe that it’s not an ordinary item. We hope that it can be auctioned away to a knowledgeable person. The starting bid is one million spiritual stones.”

Once the introduction was finished, everyone in the hall was silent.

A piece of wood that couldn’t be determined to be anything, and it looked ordinary. It looked similar to firewood in the kitchen, and it was being sold for one million spiritual stones? Did they think that spiritual stones could be dreamed up and obtained so easily?

They were just crazy for spiritual stones, weren’t they?

No one bid.

A middle-aged man spoke up. “Isn’t this too much for the Sanctuary World to ask for one million spiritual stones for something that doesn’t look like anything at all? Hitting the jackpot from carelessness isn’t such an easy thing, and no one is a fool here. Only a fool would bring out one million spiritual stones to buy this piece of rotten wood.”

Alex raised his hand and said, “I bid one million!”

The middle-aged man was speechless. The way he looked at Alex was like he was looking at a fool.

However, Alex was now in the guise of Donovan Orlando, the first genius in thousands of years. No one would think he was a fool.

So, this wood was likely to be something massive.

In the blink of an eye, the middle-aged man quoted a price, “I bid 1.2 million spiritual stones.”

“Hahahaha…”

The field burst into laughter.

Earlier, the middle-aged man had said that only a fool would buy it, but he followed up with bidding for it himself in just a few seconds. Was there a faster slap in the face than this?

The lolita asked, “Senior, what kind of wood is this? Perhaps you can see something special in it?”

As soon as she said that, many people looked over.

Alex calmly said, “No. Just that last time, I picked up the Chaos Bell. So, Sanctuary World lost a lot of money, and I owe them a favor from that. Hence, the things that Sanctuary World auction out, I can’t let it stray off So, this time, I, Donovan Orlando, will bid on all the things that look unbiddable. Those that no one wants, I will take them all.”

“Argh!”

The middle-aged man who just bid, once he heard this, immediately regretted his decision.

This person also had status and prestige, being the head of a second-rate sect. So although he felt an extreme hatred toward Alex that he wanted to beat him up, he didn’t dare, and he could only sulk in his anger. Alex had said what he said purely just to put up an act for others to see.

He needed to get his hands on that piece of wood. Unfortunately, he saw that Donovan’s title of being very blessed by luck was just too big. As long as be bid for it, be guessed that others would definitely also bid for it. So, what he said was the safest way for him now.

No one would know whether he was now bidding because the item was good or because of the so-called favor he mentioned.

Then, Alex looked at the middle-aged man and said, “Sorry, I didn’t make myself clear before bidding just now. To show my apology, I’ll bid once more. 1.21 million spiritual stones.”

The Pinnacle of Life Chapter 2244

The middle-aged man began to hesitate. He didn’t know whether what Alex had said was true or not, whether the wood had caught his eye, or whether Alex had used those words as pretext… But, in front of so many heroic, towering figures, it was impossible to backtrack after saying such words.

To be on the safe side, he deliberately ran to the front of the stage to look at the wood several times carefully. Confirming that there was nothing to be seen, he finally gave up.

“1.21 million going once, 1.21 million going twice, 1.2 million, sold!

“Congratulations, Young Sect Master Orlando, for obtaining this piece of wood. I would like to thank you, Young Sect Master Orlando, on behalf of Sanctuary World, for your support!”

Alex quickly handed over the number of spiritual stones and threw the wood into his storage ring. It was as if he had really bought a rotten piece of wood for 1.21 million spiritual stones.

But once he turned around, he discreetly threw the wood into his mind palace.

No one could tell the difference because the wood had gone directly from his storage ring into his mind palace. It wasn’t that he couldn’t wait, but rather, the Chaos Tree was the one who was being extremely impatient. He suspected that if he didn’t give it the wood, it would use its roots to snatch it over.

Once the wood entered his mind palace, it didn’t land on the ground.

The roots of the Chaos Tree wrapped around it immediately and yanked it in. Then, it went inside the main trunk of the Chaos Tree, and at that exact moment, it went through a huge change. A green and radiant light burst out, absorbing the piece of wood, and it seemed to activate its life essence once it went in.

There seemed to be an abundance of life force from the wood and some sort of magical energy. Once it went into the Chaos Tree, the energy started to flow through the entire tree.

‘This wood… Definitely came from some extraordinary source.’

‘What exactly is it? To be able to incite such a tremendous change to the Chaos Tree?’

All the branches and leaves of the Chaos Tree turned crystal clear and glowed with divine light.

If the previous Chaos Tree looked like an ordinary tree, it had completely changed. Each leaf had divine power flowing through it, as though every individual piece had a life of its own. The color was exceptionally lovely and refreshing, giving people a particularly comfortable feeling just by looking at it.

The chaos Chi energy was also emanating out from it. However, the energy that flowed out now had also changed a lot.

It was particularly fresh and pure.

It had gone up a notch from before, and once it passed into his body, he could better appreciate the benefits of the purity of this energy. It could absorb faster, transform and wash and purify his current flesh, meridians, bloodstream, cells and everything else. And the change was still ongoing.

As he returned to his seat, Alex tried to calm himself down.

Hermione Yggdrasill shot him a puzzled look. She obviously didn’t believe what Alex had said previously, but what was that?

As for the lolita, she said, “Senior, you spent so many spiritual stones just to buy this kind of garbage wood? Isn’t that a foolish thing to do? The last time when you picked up the Chaos Bell, that was due to your ability. So why would you write it off as a favor to Sanctuary World? They’re the ones who didn’t appraise their goods properly, and no one else is to blame.”

Alex was in a fabulous mood. “That’s true, but I just want to show my gratitude. As cultivators, we need to have a grateful heart.”

Not long later, another new item came up. This time, the Chaos Tree didn’t move, but Neela did.

It was a sword. The name of the sword was Sinking Snow.

‘I didn’t expect to see this sword here.’

‘This belonged to a good friend of mine before. But, unfortunately, she fell in the war against the undead, and the whereabouts of this sword were also lost. So it’s been thousands of years, and my heart still hurts when I see it.’

‘This sword hides a secret inside it. My Lord, if you bid on it, it will definitely help a lot.’

Alex nodded.

However, the sword was unlike the previous wood, where no one knew its value.

On the contrary, this sword was extremely famous.

“According to our appraisal, this sword, Sinking Snow, is a top-grade immortal weapon. In ancient times, it was once wielded by an immortal empress. The origins of this immortal empress are also well documented, and she was called Lydia Snow, the immortal empress. She was also the palace master of the ancient Divine Snow Sect. The blade, Sinking Snow, is completely undamaged, and the starting bid is ten million spiritual stones.”

With such a detailed introduction, it was impossible for the item’s value not to be seen or underestimated. However, those sitting in the auction hall were all big shots or had big shots behind them. So ten million spiritual stones were like pocket change to them.

Someone immediately bid for it.

The Pinnacle of Life Chapter 2245

“Thirteen million!”

“Fifteen million!”

“Twenty million…”

“Thirty million…”

Not even a few rounds had passed, and the price soared up to fifty million.

Alex scratched his head. Initially, he thought he had enough spiritual stones, but he didn’t expect that just an immortal’s sword would slap him hard in the face. He checked his storage bag and found that he had only about fifty million spiritual stones left. This also included the amount that his senior, Frostine Usoro, had given him. Otherwise, he would be a poor man.

And the price was still soaring upward.

“Senior, what’s wrong with you?” The lolita noticed Alex’s expression and leaned over to ask.

“Uh… Junior, I suddenly realized that I don’t have enough spiritual stones on me…”

“Oh, that’s okay. I have some here.” She casually pulled out a black crystal card. “Senior, this is the Dragon Merchant Spiritual Stone Card that my father gave me. Our Sun Shrine has superb status, and this card is directly linked to the Dragon Merchant Alliance. There’s no cap on it, and you can use it as you wish.”

“This… isn’t too good, right?”

“What’s wrong with it? Whatever is mine is also yours, Senior. Whatever you want, I can give it to you. Including myself.”

The last phrase was said more softly, but she pressed her face against Alex’s chest as she said that.

‘Holy sh*t, this lolita’s feelings toward Donovan is really deep! She’ll definitely be my enemy in the future, so why would I need to be freaking polite about it now?!’

Alex grabbed it and bid, “Sixty million!’

Someone behind him followed up, and the price shot up again, quickly rising to a hundred million.

Alex was so ruthless since it wasn’t his own money anyway and immediately bid again, “200 million!”

From a hundred million, directly to 200 million. Now, the people who had been shouting out prices immediately went silent.

The value of the sword, a hundred million, was already extremely high. Now that it had shot up to 200 million, that was a huge loss!

In the end, it was sold at 200 million.

Many people looked at Alex, who was pretending to be Donovan, with different expressions on their faces.

Some were envious, envious that he had an abundance of spiritual stones in hand. Some thought he was a foolish ingrate, like Samson Hendrik

However, Alex let everyone witness what it truly was like to have an abundance of spiritual stones at will. With the crystal card in hand, the world was within his hands.

Whenever Sanctuary World brought up a random item, as long as Alex felt it was a little useful, he would double the bid, no matter what the price, just to get it.

There were a few times when someone deliberately raised the price, but it didn’t matter. He doubled it anyway.

For example, to get an alchemy furnace, Alex doubled the price all the way and used up a total of one billion spiritual stones to get it. The lolita was shocked, and her lower lip trembled a little as she quietly asked Alex, “Senior, what do you want an alchemy furnace for? It’s not like you know alchemy, and you even used one billion spiritual stones for it. Will it not be a huge loss? I’m afraid that my father will come looking for you to settle this score.”

Alex laughed. “What are you afraid of? This alchemy furnace is definitely worth far more than one billion.”

When he said that, the lolita junior was relieved.

Finally, the auction was over.

Alex had bid all the way and bagged almost half the items that were auctioned. Some items were flops, and he also took them. Comiting, all in all, he obtained a total of thirty-six items and spent almost ten billion spiritual stones. He knew he had to go, and Hermione was just about frightened to death. If he were found with a fake identity, he wouldn’t know how badly he would die.

Walking out of the auction, Alex returned the crystal card to the lolita junior. He smiled and said, “Junior, I have some business to attend to, and I’ll leave for a bit. I’ll look for you tomorrow morning.”

The lolita junior was reluctant to leave. “Then, I’ll wait for you in Cloud Inn, Senior!”

“Alright.”

Alex had just walked forward when an awful sound came from the shadow, hurriedly rushing over.

It was the real Donovan Orlando!

“Junior, has the auction ended?”

The lolita junior looked up immediately, shocked. “S-Senior? Didn’t you… Didn’t you just come out of it?”

The Pinnacle of Life Chapter 2246

Donovan now looked very miserable.

The clothes on his body were torn and tattered, and his hair was also messy. There were still many bloodstains on his face. His essence was also poor because after he entered the passage opened by Artemis, he found that he had entered a messy void crack, not a passage at all. The moment he entered, he knew he was fooled.

If not for the many magic treasures on his body and finally relying on the Five Elements Flag to rush out from the void rift, he might have died inside.

He was so depressed!

However, the person he hated most was not Athena and Artemis, but Alex, the man who stole the Chaos Pearl and Chaos Bell from him.

The lolita was surprised, especially seeing Donovan’s miserable look. However, she was also heartbroken and went up to hug his arm to give him affection, just like before. “Brother, how did you become like this in just a blink of an eye? I will not spare him for beating you up like this! ”

Donovan pushed her arm away. It was as if a snake had bitten him.

With a very annoyed look, he stared at the lolita girl. “What nymphomaniac again! I have just come back from the dead, out of the void rift, and rushed to attend the auction. Look what’s happened now?”

Mica Simpson became a little sad after being pushed away by Donovan mercilessly.

‘Senior, what was this situation?’

‘Earlier, I was in a romantic entanglement with you, hugging you as much as I wanted, while my particular body part was stuck to you all night. Now you suddenly turn away from me. Isn’t this too harsh?’

The other Sun Shrine disciple on the side was in total shock as she said, “Young Palace Master, this is not right. You have just attended the auction with us, did you not? You also sat right next to us and got thirty-six pieces of magic treasures. Tonight, you are the biggest winner.”

“What? I attended the auction and also auctioned thirty-six pieces of magic treasures? Are you dreaming?”

Donovan was incomparably exasperated. If not for the sake of fellow disciples, Donovan would have given him a slap across the face.

That man said, “No, it’s true, everyone present saw it.” As he was talking, someone came over.

It was Samson, Colette, and several other young masters who were also famous in the circle.

Colette laughed, “Yo, Donovan, I haven‘t seen you for three minutes, and you‘ve been cut up? Is it because you were too domineering tonight and overpriced the magic treasure that one of the hidden masters had taken a fancy to, and as a result, they beat you up in a fit of anger?”

Samson also said, “You shouldn’t be too tough, instead leave yourself a way back. Even if you just put on a freshly baked straw hat, there is no need to get over the spiritual stone. Can you really cool down by spending ten billion in one night?”

“What do you say? I spent one night, spent ten billion… Spiritual stones?”

Donovan was stunned

If it were Mica and the fellow who said it, he wouldn’t believe them. However, both Samson and Colette‘s identities were not simple. They should not tell such childish lies, so…

“What do you guys mean, I was really in the auction earlier?”

“And spent ten billion to auction thirty-six pieces of magic treasures?”

“You guys are all crazy, right? From where do I get ten billion spirit stones? I just went to a small puppet world, and I got tricked, heck, that son of a b*tch. I will not let him go.”

The crowd was dumbfounded.

Sister Loreal finally said, “So, you‘re my real senior brother? The one just now is a fake one, impersonating you? It is finished. I am really done for. My ten billion spirit stones…”

Donovan’s anger rose. “How dare someone impersonate me? And, what ten billion spirit stones?”

The Pinnacle of Life Chapter 2247

The lolita was about to cry on the spot. “I just lent you the dragon merchant spiritual stone card, which is my father’s. I… I stole it, and you ended up spending ten billion and auctioning away thirty-six magic treasures. Where are the magic treasures?”

“Magic treasures? Nonsense!”

Donovan was furious. “Mica, are you a fool? Although you couldn’t even tell the difference and were unsure whether it’s me, you still give the dragon merchant spirit stone card to others. I think you have a pit in your brain.”

The lolita, who was also known as Mica Simpson, answered, “Senior, you are acting like this because you don’ t want to return spiritual stones, right? Senior, no way, this is not my spirit stone. You have to return it to me.”

Donovan slapped her fiercely. “I think you are crazy.”

Samsom gloated, “So, that person just now wasn’t you. Someone impersonated you and cheated Little Cat Fairy’s dragon merchant spirit stone card in the auction to spend a lot of money… Donovan, I really do not know what to say. Have you gone backward recently? Your wife ran away with someone, you were cheated on, and now has swindled ten billion off someone… What a joke!”

Donovan was raging. “Only your wife would run away with someone. Do you want to be slapped by me also?”

After saying this, he found that the people around him strangely looked at him. It was as if his wife had really run away with someone.

“Why are you looking at me like this?“

Mica said, “Senior, Ynes is a cheap woman. She kept a man in the forbidden place, had a presumptuous relationship with the man, and was unrepentant. So now she has been stripped of her Holy Maiden status by Yorkshire Palace, and guess what? Ynes is still stalking that man, auctioning a bra everywhere…”

Donovan was stunned.

“Really?”

“Absolutely true!”

After a few minutes, he stared at the green patch of grass and asked, “Who is that man?”

Samson said, “That’s my brother, whom I just met.”

Mica said, “Senior, I have recorded the footage. ”

She took out a memory crystal and released an image that she had recorded earlier, just like watching a movie.

In the next second, looking at the man standing across from Ynes, Donovan instantly glared and shouted, “It’s that son of a b*tch!”

Mica asked, “Senior, do you know him?”

Donovan answered angrily, “Even if he turns into ashes, I will still recognize him. This son of a b*tch trapped me in the puppet world and stole my Chaos Pearl and Chaos Bell. I’ll break him into pieces!”

Samson, Colette, and the others on the side were dumbfounded.

A super magic treasure like the Chaos Pearl and Chaos Bell had actually been robbed of him. This was too sad.

Colette hugged her huge bosom and suddenly said, “Guys, the man who just impersonated Donovan and cheated ten billion spiritual stones off your junior. Could it also be him?”

After listening to this, Donovan really did not hold back. He spat a mouthful of blood.

Mica said, “I know where that guy lives. I have just met him. Now I’ll go over and look for him. Maybe I can still find him.”

Mica’s complexion kept changing.

The loss of ten billion was secondary. The fact that she had just hugged him like a koala bear with her particular body part pressed hard against his body was totally embarrassing. She had to not talk about that.

“You are a beast!

“If Mica does not kill you today, I shall not be a human then!”

The Pinnacle of Life Chapter 2248

Mica Simpson and Donovan Orlando, with a group of people from Yorkshire Palace, immediately rushed toward the inn where Alex Rockefeller and the others were staying.

Samson and Colette, on the other hand, looked at each other oddly.

“Colette, do you want to go over and take a look?”

“Naturally, I can‘t miss such fun. Genius Donovan, also the lucky one, had suffered such a big loss at the same person’s hands. I want to get to know that guy.”

Colette’s eyes showed considerable interest.

Samson laughed. “To make Donovan suffer a defeat, snatch his wife, and also snatch his Chaos Bell and Chaos Pearl is very impressive. I’ll make sure I will be friends with this guy.”

The two hurriedly followed suit. The group of young generation representatives behind them also talked and followed to see the fun.

***

Somewhere in a shady corner, Ynes stood there in a daze, with her eyes gleaming. She saw exactly what happened at the entrance of the auction just now.

“So, the Donovan I saw earlier was indeed that b*stard!”

“Who the hell is he? He was able to snatch the Chaos Pearl and Chaos Bell from Donovan’s hands. It can’t be the golden core realm. Master also said that that guy is very bizarre and knows a very high level of illusion. Now he can appear as another person, in the view of many experts. Is this also an illusion?”

“Wait… Could this person be Donovan’s enemy, so he has purposely ran to Yorkshire Palace to ruin my innocence? Heinous…”

Ynes was annoyed.

‘It’s your business if you didn’t get along with Donovan, but why did you come and mess with me? I, Ynes, am not so easily bullied.’

She felt the mark she placed on Alex and immediately chased after him.

***

“Grand Master, Grand Master, we have hit the jackpot!“

“I tricked over ten billion spirit stones from Yorkshire Palace’s Mica Simpson. Do you know who Mica is?”

Hermione was incomparably excited, tugging at Alex’s arm. She was almost bouncing and was so excited as if she had swindled that ten billion herself.

Alex was naturally not very clear about Mica’s identity.

“Isn‘t she Donovan‘s junior?”

Hermione answered, “But she has another identity that is even more amazing, she is the only daughter of the Yorkshire Palace’s master. Otherwise, how could she take out the Dragon Merchant Spiritual Stone Card? This is something that only someone with a transcendent status can have. Even the patriarch of our Plenilune Sect cannot get it.”

Alex scratched his head and said indifferently, “Anyway, I have swindled someone. The people of Yorkshire Palace are not likely to give up on me. Let’s go, let‘s go. I found many good things from the auction. Let’s find a secluded place immediately and deal with the things… We could not enter the inn just now. Mica might rush over.”

It was at this moment, Neela warned. “Someone is coming, and they’re fast.“

Hermione said, “Could it be that there are some people who want to come and rob the treasure?”

Alex turned to look and immediately heard Mica‘s angry voice.

“B*stard! Big liar! Stop right there! You’re dead! How dare you trick me out of ten billion spirit stones?”

Then, his pupils shrank. He saw Donovan, who was rushing at the front.

“That guy actually came back!”

“We have been exposed. Let’s go!”

Alex pulled Hermione, and with an instantaneous shift, he disappeared in front of the crowd.

At that moment, Donovan had just arrived.

“Instant Teleportation again. It is that b*stard!”

Donovan was instantly certain because previously in the Infernal Realm, Alex had escaped his tracking and attacks in such a way many times. That strange formation diagram of the lotus flower under his feet made Donovan surprised and jealous. This kind of Instant Teleportation had to be obtained from Alex himself.

“Senior, what now?“

The Pinnacle of Life Chapter 2249

“Ten billion! My father will beat me to death!”

Mica Simpson was about to cry.

Donovan Orlando said viciously, “Inform the sect. Order all the Yorkshire Palace disciples in Raze City to find that guy, even if it means digging up the ground! Also, guard the major gates of Raze City, have the governor, Zephyr, activate the air ban spell formation at the gates and close the teleportation channel.”

The governor of Raze City, facing Yorkshire Palace, also had to compromise. This was because Raze City was in the territory belonging to Yorkshire Palace.

Alex did not hesitate at that moment and decided to leave Raze City.

However, he did not expect Yorkshire Palace to move so quickly, as he had just rushed up high into the sky, ready to fly out, when as a result, a huge blue light curtain appeared above the sky, with ancient runes floating on it, and he immediately felt a huge sinking pressure.

“Forbidden area for flying!”

This feeling was too familiar.

Previously, in the sky above the forbidden area of Yorkshire Palace, Alex had fallen from above because of the forbidden air domain, crashing into Ynes who was cultivating under the waterfall, and this time, with Hermoine in tow, he was suppressed by a strong force and fell toward the ground.

Boom!

From a height of four to five hundred meters, he landed heavily on the ground.

Alex landed on his feet and made an enormous crater. But other than that, nothing happened.

“Ouch, my feet…”

Hermione, however, let out a grunt of pain. Although she was also in the second realm to Imminent Immortal, her physical body‘s ability was far less than Alex’s. This time, it injured her right foot, and it hurt when she moved.

Alex took a casual look at her right foot and understood the extent of her injury. There was a calf fracture on her right leg.

Alex exhaled helplessness and hurriedly bent her over to pick her up. “Aren’t you a nine tails descendant? You are from the prehistoric demons, why is your body‘s ability so weak?”

Hermione was. She was a little embarrassed by his princess hug. “Master, how did you know that I am a descendant of the nine tails?”

Alex answered, “Your master told me, and your master has some connection with the Plenilune Sect. Otherwise, he wouldn‘t have taken you as a disciple… It seems that you do not know many things about the Plenilune Sect. In fact, the origin of your Plenilune Sect is impressive. It is related to the common lord of the three thousand worlds in ancient times, the great emperor, the Sun Shrine, was not even qualified to give shoes to the Plenilune Sect in the past. Unfortunately, the Plenilune Sect has been reduced to such a state.”

Hermione was surprised. “Our Plenilune Sect has an impressive origin? Tell me, what’s the origin. I want to hear it.”

Alex didn’t really know much. But, most of all, he now felt someone running this way. He had now regained his original appearance, with Hermione’s makeup erased, he did not think Donovan could track them so quickly, so Alex did not run immediately.

It turned out that what rushed over was a group of Raze City guards riding on hermaphrodites.

From a distance, they spotted Alex and Hermione.

“The thieves are here!”

“Quickly, quickly, take them down!”

There were probably as many as three hundred strong members of the city’s guard riding demonic beasts, charging directly at Alex and Hermione.

Alex shouted strangely, “Against all odds, how could Donovan command the city guard army and be so fast… The question is, how did they recognize me?”

Alex was hugging Hermione, so she could see the sky as soon as her eyes turned.

At this moment, pointing to the sky, she said, “Master, look up there!”

The Pinnacle of Life Chapter 2250

Alex looked up.

In the next second, he shivered. He saw that a huge projected image had appeared in the sky.

In the projection was a picture of him, and there was a caption attached to it. Although Alex could only understand a little bit of the language of the inner world of this ancient boundary, he still managed to understand the gist of it.

The whole city wanted him. He became an uncompromising devil, and a sky-high bounty was offered.

“Holy sh*t!”

“This formation is quite powerful!”

Seeing the city guards riding on hermaphrodites rushing over, Alex did not want to fight them here. He immediately started the instantaneous movement and disappeared from his original spot before the iron hooves arrived.

Hermione replied, “Master, I suddenly thought of something. Raze City belongs to Yorkshire Palace. Donovan, who is the commander, could easily make the citizens obey him with just his words. I am worried that it is the castellan who rounded us up.”

As they were speaking, some pedestrians saw them. It looked like they did not have any relationship with the castellan. But in the very next second, they also joined the team of pursuers. They shouted as they ran toward Alex.

“Are these people crazy?”

If Alex were to fight with them, they would be dead in a n instant. Nonetheless, he never thought of starting a huge massacre.

In the next half an hour, Alex traveled around Raze City at the speed of lightning. In the end, he noticed that all the city gates were closed and heavily guarded.

Neela disdainfully said, “What are you afraid of? Are you thinking of going out?”

Alex shook his head. “In this current situation, going out is easy, but to come in again would be difficult. So our main aim is to use the teleportation circle here. After all, it’s only an arrest warrant? Do you think I am afraid of it?“

Immediately, Alex used his quick movements to go to a secluded area. After a while, Alex disguised as a woman.

“Donovan would never have imagined I have become a woman!” Alex pinched his face for his face to be smoother. He now looked like Dorothy, his very own wife.

“Master…” Hermione looked at him with astonishment.

“What do you think? I look like a woman, right?”

“There’s one place that is not very womanly.” Hermione pointed at Alex’s chest. It was flat like an airstrip.

Despite the disguise, it was not easy to make this area perfect.

Hermione laughingly said, “I have an idea.”

Taking out two dumplings from her treasure box, she tucked them into Alex’s clothing and chuckled. “Perfect!”

Very soon, Alex and Hermione strutted around Raze City. No one could recognize them.

It was at night, and there was insufficient light. Even the city guards could not recognize Alex because he was disguised as a woman.

“Your calf bone is broken. It needs to be dealt with quickly.”

“We will find an empty house in the city, and I will help you.”

As Alex spoke, he carried Hermione and disappeared instantly.

When they appeared again, they were already in an empty house. Since Raze City was massive, there were many empty houses.

It was total darkness in the empty house.

Alex did not plan to turn on the light. After all, he was able to see very clearly at night, as if it was daytime. Alex put Hermione on an antique bed. He took off her socks. He could see that her whole foot was swollen. The injury was more severe than he had expected. Not only was there a calf fracture, but the bones in her right leg were all damaged as she had fallen from a high altitude.
