Alex was utterly stunned. He looked at Alba’s expression again, and he could guess what had happened.
Snow Dragon Valley had very likely found out about Lenneberg having a daughter, the reason they’d sent so many people here to find her… Although Lenneberg was already the sect master, her subordinates could still capture her as a wanted criminal. It seemed Lenneberg‘s position and power at Snow Dragon Valley were somewhat restricted. However… Lenneberg was Maya’s mother, which meant she was Alex’s mother-in-law. Alex wasn’t about to let them catch her.
He smiled and said, “That’s funny, Lenneberg is your sect master, but you call her a criminal? And her position was immediately taken away? May I ask who’s the current sect master of Snow Dragon Valley?”
Alba raised her head proudly. “That would be me.”
Alex laughed out loud. “So that means you, Alba, have seized the sect master’s position, degraded Lenneberg to a lowly criminal, and tried to get rid of her completely. Is that right?”
A girl at the side snapped, “Alex, how presumptuous of you! How dare you speak to our sect master this way?”
Alex said, “Then how should I speak with her? Should I kneel?”
The girl replied. “Well, that’d be best!”
Alex laughed and looked at her as if looking at a corpse. In the next second, Alex’s body disappeared from where he’d stood.
“Careful!” someone shouted frantically.
Unfortunately, it was too late. Everyone turned to the girl and found her body letting out a squeaking sound. She emitted a strong icy aura while her body started to freeze. In a split second, she ended up becoming an ice statue.
Crack!
The ice statue broke, and the girl was dead as she shattered to pieces.
“Hahaha!”
Alba laughed out loud, her expression turning hideous as if she’d finally taken down her mask. “Mr. Rockefeller, don’t you forget that you too are only a guest at Mount Dragon-Tiger. If the Flying Eagles hadn’t pitied you Rockefeller’s and let you hide here, you all would’ve died long ago…”
“I’ll be straight with you, Lenneberg had committed a crime by giving birth to a daughter as a Holy Maiden, and she’d even hidden the truth. That is a major crime in our sect, and the penalty is death!”
“I know that her daughter is your little lover. So, are you willing to carry that burden?”
Just then, a woman came over. It was Jade.
She stood next to Alex and spoke up slowly. “His wishes are the wishes of Mount Dragon-Tiger. If you want war, then let’s fight. Two of the six ancient sects have already been annihilated. Let Snow Dragon Valley become history too.”
