The Pinnacle of Life Chapter 1404

However, he still had Aunt Rockefeller as his trump card. It was stupid to surrender now, just because of what the masked man had said. While running, he asked, “How do you know that I have the Holy Book? If you tell me your identity, I will consider it!” The masked man said, “Look, I’m wearing a mask just because I don’t want to tell you who I am! Don’t ask these sort of questions, if you really know who I am, then you really won’t be able to live.” “Boss, I really don’t have the Holy Book. If you find the Holy Book, you can go to Japan and look for the Gokudo Soushiki.” “Don’t try to mislead me, the Gokudo Soushiki don’t have the Holy Book in their hands at all. If they had it, they wouldn’t have helped John Rockefeller take over your father’s Rockefeller Group.” In that instant, Alex was surprised. “How did you know that?” The masked man replied, “Because the Holy Book belonged to me in the first place.” “What?!” “Your father was the one who had stolen its core, and then passed it on to you.” “Huh?” Alex almost believed him. However, soon, he remembered that it was the legacy from his ancestors, something that belonged to the Rockefeller family. It was the same as having a bloodline inheritance, Guilherme and Yuno could even testify to this point, and it definitely wasn’t the core whatsoever of the Holy Book. Just then, there was no more road in front of him unexpectedly. It was another cliff. Under the cliff was the dark, endless sea. Soon, the masked man managed to catch up to him and was in front of him. “I’m giving you the last chance here, Alex Rockefeller. As long as you give me the Holy Book, not only I won’t kill you, but I won’t retrieve your martial arts! There’s no loss to you in this, right?” Alex gasped for breath and said, “Boss, since the Holy Book belongs to you, you should be able to tell that I don’t know anything about the Holy Book!” “So, you’ll be stubborn to the end?” The masked man said. “Okay, if you say so! Fine, this is the path that you’ve chosen yourself.” The masked man raised his hand, with energy fluctuating rapidly in it. A gigantic, transparent energy ball came crashing down. Alex could feel a fatal threat. “Sword of the Universe, Seven Blades of Death, combine and kill!” Boom! As the combined swords slashed the energy ball, an earth shattering explosion sounded. Alex opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood. If the Chaos Bead in his mind palace had not suddenly vibrated and blocked a large amount of atack, he would have died almost instantly. The masked man was not doing very well either. He took five steps backwards consecutively. He really hadn’t expected Alex to be this strong. The two Dragon Bone Swords suspending in the air in front of him made his heart filled with extreme greed. ‘Run!’ Alex clenched his hands and clutched Phoebe tightly before jumping into the sea. He ran across the top of the sea, feeling towards the deeper part of it. “Phew…” The masked man watched for two seconds before slowly taking off his mask. The face that was revealed was none other than the Lord Commander of Department Six, Grant Xenos! The moment he took off the mask, the aura on his body roused up once more. ‘Alex Rockefeller, I originally wanted to admit you under my command, but now it seems that you’re just seeking for your death!’ ‘Then, don’t blame me!’ He threw away the pig mask violently. His entire person turned into a black afterimage and leaped into the sea to chase after Alex swiftly.
