On the other hand, the paparazzi from SwitchTV wouldn’t be that kind and wait for Nightingale to send the footage to the boss. Whoever spilled the news first would naturally get paid first.
Thus, when the Flying Eagles called their tactician, Eleanor, the people at SwitchTV had gotten the news about Alex’s survival at the same time.
“Alex Rockefeller is actually alive?”
“And he charged into Returning Zeal Headquarters?”
“This… This is breaking news, right? Should we broadcast it?”
Being enemies with Alex, the directors of SwitchTV were a little hesitant If they broadcast the news on their platform, it would be advertising Alex and cheering him on in one way or another.
If that were to happen, Michelle’s platform could recover again. Even though she was dead, the broadcaster could be replaced by many other ‘Michelle’s’ as long as Alex supported them.
“Hold it down first. We’ll see how it goes,” the big boss decided. “We’re no longer in America we knew half a year ago. Since Rockefeller is Jade’s disciple, if she were to be defeated by the Returning Sword Sect, he wouldn’t be able to do anything. Not even the government could control these sects.”
He paused before his chubby face lifted into a smile. “I have a hunch that within five minutes, news of his actual death would come out.”
However, it only took thirty seconds for the secretary to come into the meeting room. “Sir, Michelle’s livestream is broadcasting again!”
When he heard that, the CEO of SwitchTV, Jordan Felch, was stunned and stood up abruptly.
“Who’s broadcasting? Isn’t Michelle dead?”
The secretary said, “It’s a pig.”
Someone quickly understood. “It’s Alex’s pet. Its name is Pigsy. It really is a pig.”
The secretary nodded. “That’s right. It’s Pigsy. And the headline, King Alex has returned. Returning Sword Sect, surrender now and face death.”
Jordan guffawed. “He really is a bad teammate. Does he want Alex to die faster?” the secretary commented. “But… Other platforms are all sharing the news. It has now became a hit, and our viewers have decreased by seventy percent”
“What? Hmph! That’s fine. The higher they climb, the harder they’ll fall! Watch and see. The young master of the Returning Sword Sect isn’t a patient guy. These people who’ve cheered Alex on now will have to cry later…”
“Oh right, the elder of Returning Zeal Headquarters had given me his name card last time. I’ll contact him. We might get some surprising news.”
Luna was stunned too. “When did this happen? I’ve never heard about it.”
“Three months ago,” Pigsy replied.
Alex asked. “Who did it?”
“Rakshasa Temple, but the Returning Sword Sect participated too.”
Hearing such critical news, Alex knew he had to save his friends and family first, no matter how much hatred and malice he harbored in his heart.
However, someone was unwilling to let him go.
The men of Returning Sword Sect rushed over, surrounding Alex and the others. “Are you really leaving after knocking our gates down? What in the world are you thinking?”
“Oh, I was wandering who it was. So it’s you, you little white piggy. You only managed to escape the last time because of luck. Who would’ve thought you’d return to fulfill your death wish? This is great I’m craving some pig trotters anyway. I’ll be cutting off your limbs then.”
These people from the Returning Sword Sect still had no idea that Alex had just killed two of their comrades with one blow.
