“Uhm—”Alex looked at Frostine. “They’re here for me. I killed them.”Frostine huffed coldly. “You just killed Lily. What’s the big deal about that? Ugh, my sixth sister-in-law had always been rude and insolent. I’ve been waiting to teach her a lesson for ages. Come on. I’ll stand up for you.”“I can…”“Don’t be scared. I’ve got your back.”“I’m not…”“Exactly! That’s the spirit, good boy!”The woman held Bubbles in her arms and gave Alex a sloppy kiss on his cheek, leaving some saliva on it as well. After that, she grabbed his wheelchair with one hand and went downstairs.At the time, everyone was crowding up once more, watching the sixth madame of the Usoro family, who was also Lily’s aunt. They gossiped among themselves—“The killer has been captured by the Fifth Lady! She brought him upstairs. I’m guessing he’s dead at this point!”“Ah, I pity him. Venom Widow must be experimenting on him!”“I really want to see how she carries out her experiments, you know? Could it be

“Ah—”“Venom Widow?!!”Once the guard recognized Frostine’s face, he started shaking and almost peed his pants.‘How… How's this possible? Why is this she-devil here?’“You! Go to that corner and kill yourself,” Frostine growled to the guard coldly. “I don’t want to kill anyone in front of our family’s child.”The guard’s heart dropped, his face turning even paler than before. He didn’t want his life to end like this.However, he knew that his entire family would be destroyed if he didn’t listen to the cruel Venom Widow.He had his parents, wife, and kids too.In the end, he clenched his teeth and actually went to the corner of the street and stabbed himself in the heart. Before taking this last breath, he whispered in a frail and shaky voice, “Fifth Lady, please… spare my family!”The other guards trembled with fear, unable to speak.This wasn’t what they had initially been expected.Alex took a glance at the leader’s corpse in the corner and turned to the others. “Go back

The Yggdrasills were currently celebrating Shawn’s wife’s birthday.The family had some status within the city. Moreover, one of their daughters had been accepted as a Plenilune Sect disciple, who was in charge of the area. Hence, with this, the Yggdrasills surpassed their reputation.In the morning, nobles within the city arrived to give their felicitations. Then, even more people came at noon.Traditionally, celebrations here were normally held during noon, so most guests arrived during this time.“The head of the Ganji family has arrived, bearing a gift of three million spiritual stones, wishing the old madame wonderful health and longevity!”“The Crystal Smiths has arrived with a ten-thousand-year-old reishi!”“The Divine Larcenist clan has arrived with ancient royal apparel!”As more powerful figures arrived, the atmosphere in the Yggdrasills home was vivacious. The guests that attended this celebration were of higher status than those who attended Shawn’s birthday last yea

Smack!Frostine slapped Khloe across the face, causing the veil over her face to fly off.It instantly revealed a… face full of scars. It was a horrifying sight.Khloe was still very conscious about her scarred face, a permanent thorn within her heart. Hence, she wore a veil that posed as a shield to protect her heart.Now that her face was exposed, that shield had been destroyed.She screamed in horror and covered her face with both hands, seemingly traumatized.However, Frostine let out a cold huff. “Khloe Yggdrasill, remember how you’re a cripple before you insult others. Look at your face... it’s astronomically hideous. Even the ugliest person on the Earth would barf when they look at you. Yet you still run about Starborn City without a care in the world. Are you trying to disgust people on purpose?”Khloe was so mad that she could feel her organs burning from within, so mad she almost vomited a mouthful of blood.“I just think you’re quite a powerful figure within the city

Dylan finally reached the entrance to Plenilune Sect.Taking a look at the tremendously tall mountain gates, he couldn’t help but exclaim in awe. Back in his day, he wanted to join and train the sect to be one of their disciples.It was a pity that he didn’t have the talent for it.However, his daughter had achieved his dream in his stead. Hermione was now one of the star disciples within the sect. Moreover, they heard that her master was one of the sect’s powerful elders. At this rate, her future was as bright as the sun.Dylan was then stopped at the gates.“Ah, hello, I’m here to look for one of your sect’s star disciples, Hermione Yggdrasill. I’m her fathe,.” Dylan said as he handed them two bottles of pills with a grin.Although it wasn’t some rare spiritual demon pill, this was still quite the reward for ordinary disciples within the sect.However, just as they reached for the bottles, they stopped abruptly as soon as they heard the man refer to himself as Hermione’s fathe
