Chapter 60: Don’t provoke your own death. It can really be lethal!

Inside Alexander’s mansion.

Alexander comfortably ended more than two hours of dream combat. He remembered his good friend from the dream and touched his chin, saying:

"Should I invite him for a meal if I meet him in reality later? Hmm... I must comfort him well, after all, there are so few cultivators now, and there may be opportunities for exchange in the future!"

The sky was just getting light. Alexander pulled open the curtain, and the bright sunshine shone into the bedroom.

The beautiful day had just begun.

At this moment, Alexander’s phone rang. Alexander picked up the phone and saw the incoming call information. The corner of his mouth rose instantly because the call was unexpectedly from his former competitor, Smith.

Alexander answered the phone and said impatiently, "Hello, why are you calling me so early? What do you need?"

"What have you been up to recently? I heard you’re not even managing the company anymore. You’re not busy honeymooning every day, are you?" Smith said.

Alexander laughed, "No, I’m cultivating."

The other side paused, and said, "Oh, haha, remember to greet God for me when you become immortal, and by the way, give me an elixir."

"Considering Jessica, I can give you one."

Alexander casually retrieved a elixir awarded by the system and tossed it into his mouth, chewing as he queried, "What’s the matter for you to call me?"

"Alexander, how have you been lately? How is your body? I heard you married a few more wives, that’s really crazy. Do you need me to introduce you to a Chinese doctor who is very good at health preservation?" Smith chattered.

"Thanks to your daughter, my body is in great shape." Out of consideration for Jessica, Alexander didn’t hang up the phone directly, but asked impatiently, "What do you want to say by calling me? It’s not just to chat, right?"

"No, Alexander, I called you today to talk about cooperation. I want to build a mine. But my funds are a bit tight, and I want to invite you to cooperate." Smith said.

"Just this? Send you the number of my assistant later, and you can talk to my assistant about such small things in the future." Alexander said lightly. 𝘧𝑟𝑒𝑒𝘸𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝓁.𝘤𝘰𝓂

"No, this is not an ordinary mine, I must talk to you in person." Smith said seriously.

"Oh? Then tell me what’s different about it." Alexander asked curiously.

"Have you ever heard of Lunar Rock?" Smith asked in a very mysterious tone.

"No." Alexander shook his head.

"Lunar Rock is a very rare mineral that was discovered only a few years ago. It not only has extremely high hardness, but it is also an excellent material for making superconductors. If it can be successfully mined, it will bring about a new revolution in human technology!" Smith said.

"Well, it sounds very good, so come to my mansion, and we will talk face to face." Alexander said.

"I’ll forego your mansion this time, my daughter has been pregnant for several months, and I’m worried she’ll get upset if she sees me. How about we meet at the Derlin Hotel instead? I happen to be hosting a business summit there today," Smith said in a serious tone.

"After all these years, you’re finally showing some signs of being a father," Alexander thought for a moment before saying, "Alright, then I’ll head over to the Derlin Hotel."

He hung up the call casually, had a light breakfast, and glanced at the clock—it was already 9:30 a.m.

No good, he had to leave immediately or he’d be late.

Alexander strode out of his room, glanced at his garage, and froze. He dialed his butler, asking:"Hello, where are my cars? Why is there not a single one?"

"I’m sorry, sir, you haven’t been at this mansion for a long time. A few days ago, I took the liberty of having your cars serviced! If you need a car urgently, I can drive one over to you immediately!"

Alexander shook his head and said, "No need, there’s no time. It’s fine."

With that, Alexander hung up the call.

With a leap, he jumped a kilometer away!

Alexander navigated through the skyscrapers, and in a short amount of time, he had crossed half the distance of Washington.

Alexander had excellent vision; he could see an ant on the ground a hundred meters away.

However, he now saw a familiar figure at the entrance of a mall.

Isabella’s sister, Kelly.

Alexander walked up to Kelly, smiled, and greeted her, "Hi, what are you doing here? Didn’t you go to Germany with Isabella?"

"Wow, Super Uncle, is that you?" Kelly excitedly held Alexander’s hand and said, "Because I’m still in school, I didn’t go to Germany with my sister."

"Alright, how’s your grandmother doing? Is her health better?" Alexander asked.

"It doesn’t seem very good, the doctor told us to prepare ourselves, so they should be coming back from Germany soon," Kelly said with a lost expression.

"Don’t worry too much, your grandmother will be fine." Alexander patted Kelly’s shoulder.

Just then, a white Mercedes Benz slowly pulled up not far from where Alexander and Kelly were standing. The window rolled down, and a young man in a suit got out of the car.

"Kelly, I’m sorry, there was some traffic on the way, sorry to have kept you waiting!"

"You live just 5KM away, Jacob, and yet you had me waiting for nearly an hour. I don’t understand what could’ve happened on the road, or were you lying to me?" Kelly responded.

"I told you, there was traffic. If you don’t believe me, there’s nothing I can do," Jacob replied nonchalantly. "You waited here for me because you don’t have an invitation to the summit, right? If you were bothered by my lateness, you could have gone in by yourself. No one is forcing you to wait for me!"

"You’re absolutely out of line!" Kelly’s eyes began to redden.

She was just a student, and since the elders of her family were in Germany, nobody could attend the business summit at the Derlin Hotel.

According to Isabella’s family, the summit was of utmost importance. It would be a shame if there were no representatives.

Therefore, they asked Kelly, who was still in school, to represent them. But before the summit even started, she was already being provoked by other families’ representatives.

Meanwhile, several young women walked past Alexander and Kelly, giggling as they approached Jacob.

"Jacob, you finally made it! You look so handsome today!"

"Jacob, is it true your family’s company is about to go public?"

With a casual smile in response to the flattery, Jacob adjusted his tie and said, "Well, it seems like you all have well-informed sources! Since we’re all here, let’s head off.

I’ll drive us to the Derlin Hotel. Honestly, I know the boss there. If you follow me, you’ll definitely receive VIP treatment."

Upon hearing this, the women around him cheered.

"Jacob is so generous!"

"We wish success to Jacob’s company’s IPO!"

Jacob nodded to these people, then turned his gaze towards Alexander.

Walking over with a smile on his face, Jacob asked, "What’s your name? Are you going to the Derlin Hotel too?"

"My name is Alexander, nice to meet you," Alexander politely extended his hand.

Smiling, Jacob extended his hand to shake Alexander’s. But he abruptly pulled it back as if remembering something.

He politely pulled a glove from his pocket, put it on, and said with a smile, "I’m sorry, but there’s been a serious outbreak of skin diseases lately, affecting many people. You wouldn’t mind me wearing a glove, right?"

The entire place fell silent.

Kelly looked worriedly at Jacob. She knew full well that Alexander was at a Superman level of power. If he accidentally struck Jacob, he’d definitely not survive.

Kelly turned to look at Jacob and sighed quietly.

Don’t provoke your own death. It can really be lethal!

She might not like him very much, but dying here would indeed be a significant loss.

Everyone could feel the atmosphere starting to become awkward.
