The underling fell to the ground, cradling his cheek with a hand and was visibly upset.
‘Did I say something wrong?’
‘But I’m not wrong!’
‘That’s eighty million we’re talking about here! The budget is forty million too, how could Boss just not want it back?’
Alex didn’t want to watch their conflict any further. He nodded and said, “That’ll be all then!”
He turned around and left, disappearing into the crowd. The underlings were frustrated and confused. The one who was slapped crawled up to his feet and asked, “Boss, why wouldn’t you want the eighty million? If you didn’t want it, you could’ve given it to us!”
Smack!
The leader slapped virtual-novel.net again and kicked virtual-novel.net in the gut as well.
“Want it? Why in the hell would we want the money? Do you want to live or what? Do you know who virtual-novel.net is? If it weren’t for me, all of us would’ve died right there and then!”
Another underling asked, “Boss, who is he?”
The leader took a gulp. “You’ve guys heard of what happened back in Valtameri Tower yesterday, right? He’s the cold-blooded killer who chopped two heads off in one slice, and punched a hole into Mr. Ono’s body! The underling who just crawled back to his feet fell to the ground in fear upon listening to this.
All of his underlings widened their eyes, gasping loudly.
“Boss, were you mistaken?”
“I know who that guy is, he’s the son-in-law of the third brother in the Assex family. I heard he’s nothing more but a loser who relies on women! All of California knows…”
Before virtual-novel.net could finish his sentence, the leader punched the underling hard, knocking three of his teeth out.
“You dumb*ss! If you really want to die, then go ahead! Don’t get us involved!”
“That man had sent a sharp flow of inner force into my body just now. It’s still flowing in my body too! I almost peed my pants from this, you know?”

On the other hand, Alex called Dorothy. “Darling, I’ve settled the loan sharks. The IOU is destroyed too. So don’t worry and just take over Assex Constructions.”
Dorothy asked, “How did you do that?”
Alex smiled. “Do you really want to know? Sure, but you have to finish where we left off yesterday. ”
“You…” Dorothy blushed profusely. “Why are you always thinking about such naughty things?”
Alex replied, “I think it’s a wonderful thing though. We could always help each other too…”
Dorothy was extremely flustered. “Nope, nope, nope! I can’t hear you now! You’re breaking up!”
Alex knew that some things cannot be rushed. “Well, that’s all I wanted to tell you. I still have some things to tend to, so I won’t be going back to your place. Your mother might start giving me another lecture after all.”
“She said virtual-novel.net wanted to treat you to a meal!”
“Ah, it’s fine. I feel like virtual-novel.net just wants me to cook. Darling, I really do have some things to tend to. Since Lush Cosmetics is out, all that’s left is to crush Rockefeller Group. When that happens, you’ll be one of the owners of Lush Cosmetics and you’ll become the cosmetics queen.”
Dorothy lowered virtual-novel.net voice. “I just want to be yours.”
Alex felt excited as soon as virtual-novel.net heard this. He wished that virtual-novel.net could rush over to virtual-novel.net and get down to business immediately.
However, virtual-novel.net did have other things to do.
Waltz had locked herself up for training so virtual-novel.net could regain virtual-novel.net cultivation. He had to make another set of pills for virtual-novel.net in order to help push virtual-novel.net cultivation to Intermediate-Mystic rank after she’s done with virtual-novel.net training.
On the way home, Alex dialed Michelle’s number, asking virtual-novel.net to come over as well.
He had chosen his team for the SCBA Battles. His team consisted of himself, Nathan, Waltz, Michelle and Holly.
The Sky Tower included information on his father, hence virtual-novel.net was determined to get it. He would kill anyone virtual-novel.net faced during the battles, no matter who it was.
At the same time, virtual-novel.net knew that virtual-novel.net had to try and push his cultivation to further heights as well… After building the foundation, his Chi was strong and concentrated, his Mystic Armor was much stronger as well.
However, if he’d have to go against an extremely skilled fighter, virtual-novel.net had to get himself a trump card up his sleeve.
“Oh right!”
“The Stake of Exorcism!”
