"If you think three are not enough, how about four?"

"!!!"

The female voice reverberated in everyone's ears. Because of this type of situation, Aileen thought it would be wise to come out only with Viola while Riadon needed to come out alone. Hopefully, Davi would think that Riadon came from another influence or Alex's Spirit Nest. This way, there would be three 10-Star Martial Saint, one 9-Star Martial Saint, and one Space Element user. This line up would certainly scare anyone away.

"I was wondering when you were going to come out." Alex smiled and cupped his hands.

"Fufu… You are negotiating with them, right? Unfortunately, this guy is still unable to see the depth of your Spirit Nest… Well, I might probably do the same If I were in his position." Aileen shrugged while smiling.

As for the rest of the people, they were utterly shocked by this. Never they expected to see two 10-Star Martial Saints and one Space Element user like this. After the great purge, there was little to none Space Element master. Even some would probably have died under the constant power struggle to obtain such a person. Yet, there was someone who managed to cultivate until 8-Star Martial Saint in front of them. How could this not shock them?

'This? Is this what he meant by the Fourth Influence? To think the Spirit Nest and this fourth influence would reveal a Space Element Master… This is something huge. All influences want someone like her since she has grown to this level. However, it will be hard to bring her over. In other words, she must have grown up in this Fourth Influence. What kind of influence are they to stay silent and let such a talent grow?' Manness was baffled, thinking every possible scenario in his head.

On the contrary, Song Ping's confusion was filled with praise. He just thought that Alex was really a mysterious person because he was able to connect with such a person. 'My son is indeed lucky and wise. He might have overcome the gamble of his life. Since this is the case, I will lead the Blackwade Clan to help him in this world.'

The dumbstruck Davi tried to regain his calm at this moment. If they were facing this lineup, they wouldn't be able to trap them inside the Ancient Blue Family due to the Space Element woman. Not only that, there would be a possibility of an army coming here through her gate.

This way, the Ancient Blue Family would be extinguished first. Even if they tried to inform the other influences, they wouldn't be able to withstand their onslaught before the reinforcement came. Davi finally realized Alex's true intention.

Alex wanted to extinguish the Snow White Mountain and Fire God Clan from the roots. The only way to do it was to lure every single one of them and eliminate them in one single sweep. However, this wasn't possible due to the fact they didn't have enough men, and it would be hard to fight that would involve a few hundred if not millions of people.

It would be different with the presence of the fourth influence that everyone knew nothing about. Not only were they dangerous, but they also possessed the element that could bring or trap an army.

Now that he thought about it, Alex must have known about this. He remembered when he said he would force him to change his condition, and it turned out to be this way.

'Sh*t.' Davi screamed inwardly. How could he know there is another influence on this continent? Even after searching for such an influence for hundreds of years, they never found them. Only one possible scenario came to his mind. They were hiding inside a Special Realm that no one had knowledge about… Even so, it was almost impossible to hide that kind of place under the nose of Martial Saints, but it seemed they were far better than the average ones because they could hide for such a long time.

On one hand, Davi wanted to take advantage of this even further, especially concerning Alex, who managed to know such an influence and looked very friendly. On the other hand, he had lost that opportunity after threatening him.

He gritted his teeth. 'My plan was perfect… To think all it takes is the appearance of these people to overturn the whole situation. I have fallen from the best possible future to a beggar-like future.'

Rio and Rena retreated a step back and waited for their father to respond.

Alex then turned around and sat back. "Now… What does Patriarch have to say?"

Davi was in a pinch. He had nothing to say at the moment since his brain couldn't work under this pressure. 'I need to buy time first and search for the best option…'

"Why don't all of you have a seat first?" Knowing what to do, he asked. He then turned to his son and ordered. "Bring me some chairs!"

"Ye-yes!" Rio had no other choice than going, but Aileen stopped him with her voice.

"You don't need to bother. We are coming here simply to assist our friend in his problem." Aileen said and stood behind Alex with the others. Even Riadon nodded to Jeanne as if he was trying to be polite to her.

'Father… That 10-Star Martial Saint…' Rena sent a thought transmission.

Of course, Davi didn't let go of such a detail. 'Just looking at how they stand behind Alex instead of sitting down already signifies his status. Despite saying they only want to help a friend, it's easy enough to see that Alex's status is higher, along with that 4-Star Martial Saint kid. And if such an influence actually has two 10-Star Martial Saints… What kind of power does the Spirit Nest have?

'Since they didn't know about my father, I thought I could threaten them with an empty lie. Unfortunately, we have been caught in his web… And my father has become a God Rank Expert. We have no way to ensure our family livelihood the moment they know about this.' Davi gritted his teeth.

'What? Grandfather is…'

'Yes. Reaching God Rank can be considered as a blessing and a misfortune. They can be considered a blessing and pride since there will be a member of the influence out there. However, don't you think it's strange that those God Rank Experts actually never returned to this place as if they have died out there?'

'Then Grandfather…'

'We don't know yet. But from what he said, the God Stage Expert couldn't return to this world. Even if he wants to send a reinforcement from outside, he needs power and prestige from another world to send such a thing. Your grandfather is already so old, so I doubt he can reach far.

'On the other hand, that Alexander Sirius has reached this point despite being less than forty years old. That alone will guarantee him as a genius. And there will be a chance for him to come back… It's not directly, but it's enough to send a few people to us or even bring a few people to be a God Rank Expert. That's why I was forcing you to marry him.

'Unfortunately, everything is gone. If only I know more about his influence and this so-called fourth influence…' Diva bit his lips until blood flowed. He had been beaten by a single young man called Alex. In fact, he had been dancing in his palm this whole time.

First, Alex acted humble to raise his dominance, and he succeeded in doing this. The result was that threat. After pushing him that high, he smacked him down like a fly.

With no more card to play, he had no choice other than surrender. Not only he couldn't demand an exorbitant amount, but Alex also wouldn't trust them. In other words, the chance of his daughter to get closer to him had gone to dust.

'What a devil…' Diva took a deep breath and answered. "I apologize for my rude behavior from earlier."

"Now that the situation has escalated like this. What is your demand, Patriarch Davi?" Alex looked at him with a cold gaze.

"Since you have offered us a second chance… I only need one and a half million Spirit Crystals, and everyone's promise not to hurt anyone from the Ancient Blue Family for a hundred years. You don't need to be our protectors; we only want you to let us alone. As for the payment, I will not say anything regarding this incident. Besides, it's already futile to say anything to them since they don't know they have been checkmated this whole time."

Alex narrowed his eyes and looked at the other parties.

"I think it's fine." Song Ping nodded. "I have known Patriarch Davi for a long time, and I am sure he is someone who knows what is good for them."

"Fair enough. I am here just to help an old friend's disciple." Manness shrugged.

"We don't have a problem as well…" Aileen nodded with a smile. Their ultimate goal was to resurface and live like in the past. As long as Alex agreed to one thing, it was better to follow him… Or so what Licht told them.

Alex nodded. "Sure. Since everyone has agreed to this, let's conclude this meeting."

"Fufu… I have another suggestion." Jeanne sat on Alex's lap and raised her hand like a child, stopping Alex. However, this cute kid suddenly turned into a devil the moment she uttered her next words. "How about we torture them first?"

Alex chopped her head gently. "I know that you like such a thing, but we shouldn't do it."

"No. That's not what I mean." Jeanne shook her head furiously. "What I want is to have the Ancient Blue Family act like this never happens and join their alliance."

"!!!" Alex realized her plan. "By luring them into having an all-out war against us, we will break their hearts by showing the fourth influence and the betrayal of the Ancient Blue Family? This way, not only will they mobilize all their people, but they also get weakened by this crushing truth."

*Gasp—* It was everyone's turn to gasp as they never thought about this possibility.

"Isn't that nice? I wonder what kind of face they will make at that time?" She smiled like a devil child. It even sent a chill down to their spines.

As expected from a torture specialist, Alex thought. Jeanne could think something like this because she only wanted to torture them. Just like she said previously, the best torture is the one that breaks one's spirit until they are completely blank. Killing them is only a relief.

Alex was speechless as he patted her head before glancing at Davi.

"So, you want us to be a double-agent?" Davi narrowed his eyes.

"Since there is a better plan, I am ready to pay the price as well."

Davi thought for a moment before recalling a certain matter. Although it was considered disgusting, he had no choice other than to beg Alex. "Actually, I have one request."

"Ho?!"
