Alex's expression turned sour when he heard her narcissistic remark.

“I have been meaning to tell you this, you are really a crazy woman.”

He hung up because he didn’t even want to hear her speak. He didn't care if she was going to be annoyed because of what he had said to her. He rested his head on the chair cushion.

Donald and Alex arrive at the Happy Happy place auction venue, they set it up on the outskirts of Trim city, deep in a place that was not easily accessed unless someone knew the place.

They got out of the car. There were chaperones who were waiting for them by the car park, who immediately led them inside.

Donald followed him inside because it was going to be easier since he had already had a solid membership in the auction house while Alex was pretty much a newbie there.

The auction looked like an underground house, it was underneath because of protection. When they got it in it had another look entirely , it was well decorated, and it looked like an event cente

    “Do you think doing this to us will earn you some more accolades? Dream on, let’s see if that would happen.” One of the fugitives threatened. They knew who Thea was and of course, she took them down, she would be named the war god that took down the hard-to-catch fugitives. They were not going to let that happen.All six of them got up at once, they looked unusual as if they were possessed by something.“Watch out for these guys, they don’t seem like their normal.” Alex warned her. He didn’t know what was going to happen but he had a bad feeling in his guts that why he had warned Thea but her face changed into a cold one again.She looked at him as if he had just said nonsense to her How could he possibly know the gravity of having fugitives like them around when he is just an ordinary doctor and martial artist.

    Her eyes rolled to the back as the choking got intense. Knowing her strength as a martial art Master, it was easy to know that she was in so much pain..Alex rushed over to her, the cigar that had dropped on the ground while she was choking burned the back of his leg through the slippers he was wearing.He had switched his shoes out when they came inside earlier. He ignored the pain and checked her pulse immediately and his expression hardened. Her heart rate was starting to drop.Then his mind to the move that the fugitives made earlier. Was that the cause? he asked himself.The cause was not important right now, saving her came first. Alex was not the type of doctor that is practicing because he wants to save the world or be a good person for the sake of humanity but this has happened in front of him, he couldn't let her die that way.On a normal day, he would have preferred to mind his own business. After a moment of doing different techniques on her, he breathed heavily. He was

    “Put your mind at rest, Hannah. I will not let anything go wrong with Thea.” he assured her, as he began to treat her.He was able to restore her heart rate back to normal since it was a minor thing to do.Some moments later, Thea woke up. She was surprised to see Hannah and Reed in her house.“Reed? How are you here?” what are you doing in my house?”Hannah immediately explained what had happened to her.“I wonder what would have happened to you if young master Reed wasn't here, My lord. I was so scared that something bad will happen to you. Who knows what would have happened if Young master Reed did not come here?”Thea’s expression fell as Hannah explained to her. Her memories of what happened before she passed out flooded her head. The fugitive's last move was strong enough to take her life.She even thought she was going to die while she was choking. She could smell death closely while that was happening and there was huge pain surging around her body..That fucking bum! Alex!Th

    Donald was kind of confused, it was strange that he had gotten that call from Alex, what was stranger was proving that he was truly Donald Bourne over the phone to some people. If he was meeting them in person, that would have been easier to do.He cleared his throat at the other end of the phone and Alex put his phone on loudspeaker. “I am not sure you guys want me to prove that I am Donald Bourne. Do you have questions you want to ask?”He knew that he might have sounded stupid and off. But that was the only thing he could think of saying.Molly burst into laughter and her mother joined her. “You are really something, Alex. I don’t know if it is the desperacy to prove that you are an important person but it is not working. How are you so quick to find an actor to pretend like he was the great Donald Bourne?”“I am sorry to break it to you but this actor doesn’t deserve to get a dime from you because he didn't do his job well.” She burst into laughter again.“I have had enough of all

    Killain turned on his heel, he was about to leave but Molly clung onto him. What did I do wrong, babe? Do you hate me now? Your actions towards me have been harsh lately.”Because her voice was loud, she had caught the attention of passersby, Killain had no choice but to wait and play along with her antics to avoid any form of embarrassment. The only reason he had kept her around was to get a taste of her but he wasn’t even going to do that again. He just wanted to get away from her now that he knew who Alex was.“No, I have been busy lately, you know with my mom’s condition and all. Everything has been tight. Don’t be annoyed at me, okay?” He said.Molly knew about Mrs Gomez’s condition. She had heard it from Rose Gomez who had to stab many of their hangouts so that she could stay back at home to take care of their mother. She became calm when she heard his words.“When are you going to take me to see your mom? We should meet her together, don’t you think so?” She asked, not letting

    She sneered at him, “What? You are surprised to see me here?”Molly folded her arms, “If you know what is good for you, you better leave this place at once. Killian is here, if he meets you here, he is going to deal with you and I am sure your body can't even take a beating from him.”Ofcourse, she would say that because she had never seen him naked before, she didn’t know how he looked behind the clothes that covered his bidy.Alex didn’tt want to waste his time wit her.

  • Chapter 176 - Half brother

    The first light of morning filtered through the lattice windows of the Crown Prince’s private strategy hall, casting long golden bars across the polished floor. Outside, the palace was waking. Gardeners swept fallen petals. The temple bells rang softly in the distance. Couriers moved with quick steps, carrying missives sealed in jade tubes.But inside, the tension was suffocating.Alex Cole stood near a long scroll table, arms folded across his chest. He had cleaned and dressed his wounds, though the bandage around his left bicep was still fresh. His expression was unreadable.Across from him stood Thea Walton, her cloak removed and tossed across the nearest chair. Her uniform was partially undone, revealing the tight linen beneath, but she looked less like a war general today and more like a woman on the edge of something personal.The Crown Prince sat at the head of the room, leaning slightly on his right arm. His sword, wiped clean of the assassin's blood from the night before, la

  • Chapter 175 - Alex goes down

    Moonlight spilled across the cobblestone pathways of the imperial courtyard like liquid silver. The garden here, nestled between the east wing of the inner court and the outer temple pavilions, was designed for silence. No servants wandered here after dusk. The lanterns had been dimmed to faint embers, and only the distant rustling of wind-touched bamboo broke the stillness.Alex Cole stood alone beneath the blossoming night cherry tree at the garden’s edge.His breath was shallow. Fatigue gnawed at his bones.He had not rested since the completion of the cure. The strain of channeling high-tier flame Qi during refinement had pushed his meridians close to overload. Though he had masked it well, his energy was fractured. Spiritual channels that usually ran like rivers now trickled slowly, choked by internal strain.Still, something had drawn him outside.A whisper at the back of his mind. A prickle at the base of his neck.He had sensed it earlier at his window—a shift in the palace’s

  • Chapter 174 - Wraith Needle

    The lanterns had long dimmed across the inner court, but in a secluded corner of the Physician's Wing, a single chamber glowed with light. Alex Cole sat at a low lacquered table, the air thick with the fragrance of crushed herbs and warmed spiritual energy. Golden runes shimmered faintly across the floor in a formation meant for concentration and Qi stabilization. The walls were lined with jade tiles, each engraved with protective symbols inscribed by royal talisman artisans. This was no ordinary guest chamber. The Crown Prince himself had ordered it prepared. Alex’s robe had been shed and folded neatly at the side of the table. A light inner tunic clung to his body, damp with sweat. Before him lay a tray of rare ingredients: the White Snake Flower, now fully harmonized; a dish of powdered Thunder Leaf; and a sealed vial of jade resin, freshly extracted from the spiritual trees near Mount Qingshan. Everything had been checked for purity three times. Still, Alex performed his

  • Chapter 173 - The princess’s offer

    The Grand Celestial Hall was radiant.Golden lanterns floated high above, suspended by unseen formations, casting a warm light that made the entire space shimmer like sunlight on water. Court nobles stood dressed in their most formal silks, their heads adorned with jade pins, gold-threaded hats, or embroidered veils depending on their rank. The occasion was an impromptu court gathering organized by the Crown Prince. It had been called to celebrate the stabilization of his condition and to officially welcome a guest who had become the subject of whispers in every corner of the palace.That guest was Alex Cole.He stood at the far end of the hall, flanked by two royal aides. His robe was midnight blue, gifted by the Crown Prince himself. It bore no family crest but was trimmed with silver lining and celestial cloud embroidery that marked him as someone favored by the highest echelons of power.He did not seek the attention of the room.But the room gave it to him all the same.Dozens

  • Chapter 172 - Spirit Guardian

    The greenhouse was silent.Too silent.Alex Cole stood motionless, the crystal case housing the White Snake Flower still warm in his palm. Princess Serena had vanished into the maze of luminous vines to inspect a sacred fern said to release spiritual mist under moonlight. The glass dome above shimmered, reflecting the glow of suspended spirit-lanterns, yet the energy inside the room had changed.He felt it first in his skin like a static charge in the air.Then, deeper within his core.The Qi of the White Snake Flower… was no longer calm.Alex frowned.The flower in his hand pulsed unnaturally. Instead of the gentle rhythm of a living plant, its spiritual essence felt… jagged. Fractured. Like a song suddenly off-key.He set the crystal case on a stone pedestal and knelt beside it. His fingers hovered just above the jade-sealed latch as he closed his eyes, letting his senses extend outward.At first, he sensed nothing unusual.But the deeper he probed into the flower’s essence, the mor

  • Chapter 171 - Orchid Blade

    The midday sun glinted off the curved rooftops of the Jade Pavilion as a cooling breeze swept through the palace grounds. Underneath a shaded colonnade near the eastern garden, Alex Cole stood, gazing out at the koi pond below. The serene scene before him was interrupted only by the murmuring of distant court attendants and the flutter of palace banners.He had barely stepped out of the treatment chamber when the summons came. A young maid had approached respectfully and, after bowing, informed him that Princess Serena awaited him at the Jade Bridge, the symbolic entryway into the Imperial Greenhouse.Now, he waited.He had heard the name before. Serena, one of the Crown Prince’s cousins—was no ordinary princess. Known as the “Orchid Blade” among palace circles, she was a celebrated martial arts prodigy, the youngest in decades to win the Royal Combat Trials and the only princess to ever defeat a member of the palace guard in single combat. But she was also known for her mercurial te

  • Chapter 170 - Nine Dragon silver needle box

    The jade-tiled chamber was one of the most sacred rooms within the Imperial Healing Pavilion.Located at the innermost wing of the inner court, it was accessible only by the royal family, top-ranking imperial physicians, and the occasional war hero brought back on the edge of death. The floor was carved from ancient sea jade, a rare mineral believed to channel cooling energy and absorb pain. The ceiling glistened with embedded pearls that reflected sunlight through gilded lanterns, bathing the room in a soft halo of calm.Alex Cole stood alone at its center.He was dressed in ceremonial black robes trimmed with silver, tied tightly at the waist. His sleeves had been rolled back, revealing forearms covered with faint acupuncture scars from years of self-training. In his right hand, he held a long, rectangular wooden case, the Nine Dragon Silver Needle Box, a gift passed to him by Dustin before his journey began.The box had remained unopened for years.Now, it whispered to him.The he

  • Chapter 169 - Not here for the court

    Thea’s thoughts were already unraveling, tangled in disbelief and reluctant curiosity as she stood just outside the Imperial Hall. Her fists were clenched behind her back. Her knuckles were pale beneath her black gloves. From the moment Alex revealed the Phoenix Seal to the time the Crown Prince had dismissed her objections without hesitation, her emotions had been lurching in directions she didn’t like.And now, this.As Alex followed the Crown Prince deeper into the Imperial Garden Pavilion, his eyes flicked briefly toward Thea, not with smugness, not with triumph, but with a knowing calm that somehow grated on her more than arrogance ever would.She stayed behind in the hallway, but a whispering palace aide lingered at the curve of the hallway, catching her attention with words that hit her like a slap."Did you hear? The Divine Physician and His Highness met before. In the city. At a bar of all places."Thea's breath caught.At a bar?She strode after them without permission.***

  • Chapter 168 - Princess Serena

    Thea Walton’s boots echoed sharply across the white jade tiles of the east wing. Her cloak, bearing the golden sigil of Mericania’s War God, billowed behind her like a storm front. Every palace servant she passed instinctively stepped aside. Her presence demanded it. Her fury announced it.Moments earlier, she’d been in the Royal Infirmary, standing beside the unconscious figure of her grandfather, Lord Thor Walton. The Royal Physician had been explaining the lack of progress with a carefully worded diagnosis, trying to avoid admitting defeat.Then the whisper came.“General Walton,” a young eunuch had said, bowing deeply. “Forgive the interruption, but… a man from the outer court gained access through the East Gate. He used a Phoenix Seal. The Imperial Guards escorted him into the side court and offered him hospitality.”The tea cup in Thea’s hand shattered.“A what?” she hissed.“A Phoenix Seal, my lady,” the eunuch replied, trembling. “Confirmed by Elder Xu himself.
