Before Julian left, he even looked at the huge crater he had just scorched and left after confirming no aura fluctuating inside.
Alex, who was hiding underground, didn’t go immediately. As expected, after more than half an hour, that old man returned and rummaged around in the snow valley. After confirming that nothing had been found, he frowned and muttered to himself,
“Strange. Could my senses have gone wrong? But someone really killed those demon beasts…”
Since Julian had failed to find anyone, he left, going far away. He was convinced that no one could open the Ghost Dragon Suppressing Prison. Even if someone were to have found Nolan, nothing could be done.
This time, after another half an hour, Alex cautiously walked out of the Cleansing Vase.
He silently approached the depths of the snow valley. Finally, he saw the Ghost Dragon Suppressing Prison suppressing the old man in a piercingly cold pool of water in the depths of snow valley.
Alex was anxious when saw the old man’s appearance.
Nine thick chains had penetrated his body.
The souls of nine Ghost Dragons were wandering around, absorbing his life force.
Meanwhile, half of his body was immersed in the chilly pool. Half of his body had long been out of shape and his skin and flesh had been rotten from the freeze. If it weren’t for the extremely low temperature here, he would’ve been swarmed by maggots.
The old man’s hair and heard were white and disheveled. It would be strange if he was fine after experiencing such a torture.
However, when Alex showed up, he noticed the old man looking at him.
“Who are you?”
The man looked at Alex, probably a little surprised.
“I…”
“Really? Then, that’s… Great! Great! I, Nolan Rockefeller, never thought that I would see my grandson in my remaining days. God has really treated me well. D*amn, brat, how did you appear in a place like this? Come closer. Let me take a good look at you.”
Alex nodded and took a few steps forward.
In this position, he could feel the biting coldness of the pool water. Moreover, there was powerful energy with a frost attribute.
It was then that Nolan suddenly made a move. He abruptly wrapped the huge iron chains around Alex, viciously dragging him into the cold pool.
He roared, “Could you be any dumber than that? Or, did you think I was brainless? How dare you pretend to be my grandson? Bast*rd..!”
Then, he laughed heartily and said to Alex, “Oh, ‘grandson’. How does this 10,000 year old Frigid Pool feel like? If you wish to become my grandson, you’ll have to enjoy the endless torment of the Ghost Dragon Suppressing Prison with your grandpa!”
As he spoke, he pushed Alex’s head into the water.
