The Pinnacle of Life Chapter 1407

“Surrender?” Grant Xenos wondered if there was something wrong with his hearing. This trash like weak woman that had been unconscious from the beginning, who had been relying on Alex to rescue and survive up to this point, was telling him to surrender. Now, wasn’t this a funny thing? However, what made it more laughable was when Phoebe had said those words, she had said it like it was the most natural thing in the world. Grant stopped searching Alex and faced Phoebe with a strange smile as he said, “Miss Larsen, you seem to have a lot of confidence. Where does it come from, I wonder? Even if your father were here, he would also kneel and bow his head once he sees my face and how angry it is. And you, you’re asking me to surrender?” Phoebe? Ah, the person who was talking obviously was not the real Phoebe, but Yuno. She merely spared a glance at Grant, then looked at the island they were on. Especially the palace a few kilometers away that stood quietly in the dark. She saw something unusual, and for a moment, she smiled satisfactorily. Faced with Grant’s question, Yuno replied, “Yes, that’s right. Actually, a person like you, even if you were kneeling in front of me last time, I wouldn’t even spare you a glance because you’re just too weak, and you’re trash. My patience is limited. I’ll give you ten breaths of time to consider. Surrender means you kneel. If you’re not willing to, then die!” Grant couldn’t believe that such words actually came out of Phoebe’s mouth. “I don’t even need to think about it! For Wayne Larsen to give birth to a child who’s mentally disabled, I will take on this difficult job and deal with you on his behalf!” As Grant said that, he rushed toward Phoebe. He raised his hand, and the Three Return Zeal was up. Then, he slammed it down, aiming at Phoebe’s head. Faced with such a deathly crisis, a force that could move mountains and overturn seas, not a single hint of fear was on Phoebe’s face, and she merely put up a finger. However, Grant’s face changed as soon as she put up that finger. The space in front of him suddenly felt like it had shackled him down. His Three Return Zeal seemed to have frozen, and he couldn’t make a single move forward. Even his body was stiffly frozen. He saw endless mysterious runes bursting from Phoebe’s outstretched finger. In his eyes, it looked like a starry sky. “No, no!” He could feel the threat of death looming over him. Having lived such a long time, he had never felt such fear or helplessness. ‘This woman! Was she a god?!’ However, she was Wayne Larsen’s daughter. How could she have such strong powers? “What now? Are you willing to surrender?” Yuno asked in a light and calm voice. “I… I surrender!” The usually dignified Lord Commander went down on his knees with a ‘thud’. It wasn’t like he was sincere in surrendering, but the pressure from Yuno’s fingertips was so great that he felt as though he was suffocating, as though an entire mountain had been pressed down on his being. His honest thoughts were, ‘F*cking d*mnit! How dare this little b*tch have me surrender? Just wait, I’ll give in today, but I will let you know eventually what it means to have offended me!’ Grant was the Lord Commander of Department Six, and he was as strong as a master at Martial Honor rank. Why would he kneel like this to anyone? However, Yuno seemed to have some insight into his inner thoughts and calmly said, “You seem unsatisfied.” Grant’s heart shook at that, and he hurriedly said, “No, I wouldn’t dare.” Yuno shook her head gently. “It’s no issue. As long as you give in at this moment, I’m not afraid of the backlash from you later on.” She thought about it for a bit, then tapped on Alex’s eyebrow. Soon, Alex woke up. The moment he woke up, he saw Phoebe kneeling in front of him, and Grant, that old b*stard was also in front of him. The first reaction he had was to grab Phoebe by the waist and pull her close to him, violently retreating to the side. After retreating for about hundreds of meters, he found that Grant did not chase after them, and he finally stopped. “Phoebe, are you alright? When did you wake up? Huh, where are we? Aren’t we supposed to be at sea?” Finally, Phoebe let out a cold snort and said, “Unhand me!”
