Alex and Clara were now walking along the main sidewalk of Phoenix Sky City. Neon lights had begun to glow, reflecting blue and purple colors on the glass walls of the towering buildings. Vehicles passed by with soft humming sounds—the city’s technology was clearly far more advanced than the Wang family’s mining region.

Clara pointed across the street.

“That restaurant looks quiet.”

Alex nodded lightly. “Alright. Let’s eat first.”

But before they could cross the road, a commotion suddenly erupt

Clara chuckled softly when she saw that Alex’s calm demeanor had not changed at all.Not long after, the Cia family ambulance truly arrived. Their private doctor hurried out, but when he saw that the Young Master’s condition was already stable, his face filled with shock.Several guards repeatedly glanced toward Alex, but he had already walked away with Clara.*They finally crossed the street and entered the restaurant Clara had pointed out earlier.The interior felt warm. Yellowish lights hung low from the ceiling. The aroma of herbal soup and roasted meat slowly filled the room.Clara sat across from Alex.“You don’t even look tired,” she said while pouring tea.“I only used Qi as much as necessary,” Alex replied casually.Soon the food arrived. They ate simply. There was not much conversation. From time to time Clara watched Alex, who seemed to be thinking.“Thinking about something?” she asked softly.“About Auriel’s matter,” Alex answered briefly. “And the demonic aura we felt y

The threatening sentence had not even finished, yet Alex had already moved.He drew a slow breath. Not to calm himself—but to stabilize the flow of Qi within his body.Clara, who stood closest, could feel the subtle change in the air around them.The air suddenly felt warm… and extremely controlled.Alex slowly raised his right hand. At first, nothing happened.Several guards sneered quietly.“Look, he doesn’t even have any medical tools.”“Where are the needles? Where’s the defibrillator? And he calls himself an ancient medical practitioner?”But in the next second…The tips of Alex’s fingers began to emit a thin golden glow.Not a bright flash. Not a dramatic explosion.Rather, strands of light as thin as hair slowly extended from his fingertips.One.Two.Three.Until seven strands of transparent golden light formed, floating between his fingers like living threads of light.The crowd suddenly fell silent.“What… what is that?”The lights slowly condensed, forming several needles.

Vehicles passed by with soft humming sounds—the city’s technology was clearly far more advanced than the Wang family’s mining region.Clara pointed across the street.“That restaurant looks quiet.”Alex nodded lightly. “Alright. Let’s eat first.”But before they could cross the road, a commotion suddenly erupted from the right side of the street.“Move aside! Give him space!”“Someone call an ambulance! The young master of the Cia family is having a heart attack!”Clara stopped in her tracks.Right in the middle of the sidewalk, dozens of people had formed a circle. Some were holding up their phones, while others looked panicked.Clara glanced briefly at Alex. The two of them quickly decided to approach.In the middle of the crowd, a young man lay on the ground. His body was convulsing violently. His

Clara fell silent for a few seconds after hearing that question.Then she let out a soft snort.“Jealous?” She glanced sideways at Alex. “If I’m not mistaken, every step you take always has a purpose. If I didn’t get used to it, my heart might have stopped beating a long time ago.”Alex chuckled lightly.“But…” Clara added calmly, “don’t forget. No matter who you marry, I’m still the one who stood by your side first.”Their gazes met for a moment. There was no doubt. No fragile emotions. Only a mutual understanding that Clara herself already accepted. For someone powerful, marrying more than one woman was nothing unusual.“Alright,” Alex murmured softly. “Then let’s see what this mine is hiding.”*After walking through the mining area for a while, Alex realized that the mine controlled by the Wang family was indeed no ordinary mine.The footsteps of Alex and Clara echoed softly as they moved through the tunnel.Tok.Tok.The deeper they went, the more a strange vibration could be fel

The previously silent atmosphere became tense again.Emperor Auriel’s gaze sharpened once more. The wind around the mining area seemed to stop moving.“You are indeed no ordinary person,” he said slowly, “not even someone who can be considered an ordinary cultivator…”The hidden aura of the Void Dragon within his body did not erupt. Yet that was precisely what made it terrifying—calm and completely controlled.“Dragon Prison King, listen to my suggestion,” he continued slowly. “I can consider your judgment. I can even change my decree.”He looked directly into Alex’s eyes.“On one condition.”Raven slightly raised his head, though he was still kneeling. He knew where this conversation was heading, yet he remained silent.As Auriel stepped closer, his voice sounded lighter.“Enter the authority under my control.”The atmosphere truly fell into complete silence.“Become one of the high authorities of the Empire.”His voice turned firm.“With your influence among the elite families, and

Without waiting for an answer, the earth sword shot forward.SHUUUUK!!!The air split apart. Raven’s Qi pressure crushed down across the entire mining area. Several soldiers even staggered back two steps, their faces turning pale instantly. That attack was not an ordinary slash. It was a killing technique of an Imperial General.Clara remained standing calmly.Because Alex did not even raise his hand.The earth sword stopped exactly one inch in front of his neck.CRAAACK!!!A thin crack appeared on the surface of the sword.Then—BOOOOM!It SHATTERED.The sword exploded into dust of earth that slowly fell like rain.The atmosphere instantly turned silent.Raven’s eyes widened as well. Not because his sword had been destroyed, but because Alex had done nothing.There was no movement of his hands. No surge of aura. Even the pressure around Alex’s body remained stable.As if the attack just now had been nothing more than a passing wind.Several soldiers unconsciously swallowed hard at th
