“What kind of legendary divine core?”
Pigsy didn’t fall for this. It seemed quite cautious, backing away slowly on all fours. It knew that Alex was a scammer and the fact that he was quite frugal. If there really were a legendary divine core, he wouldn’t possibly give it to anyone else, let alone Pigsy.
Alex used telepathy to talk to him.
Pigsy was so excited that its eyes widened. “Really?”
Alex thumped his chest hard. “Of course! When we get the divine core, it’s all yours. I just need the key to the Buddhist sanctuary.”
“Deal!”
Alex smiled. The divine core thing was just a story he made up. However, when searching within Blossom’s soul, he found out that there was a divine coffin hidden in the ancestral grounds of the Miller family.
Inside was a very powerful being responsible for carrying out the Nirvana project in the Wasteland. Once he realized that the higher-ups of the Ancient Alliance were planning something, he decided to take action, waiting for the Wasteland to reawaken so that the humans could rise again.
Hence, this ancestor sealed himself into a divine coffin, waiting for the right time to come out and take the grand opportunity. With this, he could make the Miller family rise to the top.
Alex didn’t want to visit the Miller family for that old man. However, the Old Lady Miller had placed the relic in the divine coffin. Not only could it open the Dairaionji Temple, but it also seemed beneficial to this old man as well.
However, if Alex wanted to get the relic, he might wake the old man. With Pigsy and its speed, it could bear some of the damage if needed.
Before leaving, Alex decided to make some adjustments to the manor.
If the Miller family was telling the truth, there should be eighteen Divine Envoys of the sacred mountain. However, since he killed the wolf demon a while ago, another seventeen would still be left. If they united their powers to attack the Rockefeller family, it would certainly be a catastrophe… Hence, he took out the Dragon’s Bane of Thirty-Six and hundreds of flying swords from the Sword Gourd. After that, he connected them to the sword heart he got from Atlantis and turned the manor into another Atlantis.
With this, he could leave the manor, all while ensuring his family’s safety without being around.
“The legendary divine core?” Daya froze and took a glance at Alex. She then smiled and said, “It’s yours. I’m just tagging along, so I don’t need any rewards.”
She had already gotten a lot of information on the Miller family from Channing. ‘A legendary divine core? It’s definitely something Alex made up to convince Pigsy.’
Pigsy smiled. “Then there wouldn’t be any problems. Let’s go! Pigsy’s coming for you, Divine Core!”
***
The Miller family was situated at Rubicon River, near Lake Tahoe. Their home was an ancient castle. The design of the castle was simple and dignified. It had its charm. The surrounding area looked nice too. Next to the castle was a pond with green mountains at the sides, connected by a small wooden bridge.
Just then, the Miller family in the castle was panicking. They were watching Michelle’s live stream as well and saw Alex defeating the Divine Envoy. Moreover, the Divine Envoy’s fate was absolutely horrid. Both its legs were amputated and amputated on the spot… Some people even proposed a price to buy its meat by weight as if it were livestock.
