Chapter 303-News
The unexpected revelation stunned everyone. No one had anticipated that Dave was the son of the holy son of the Alexander Clan, a status that even made the emperor kneel before him. Old Ming informed them that they would leave the following day as instructed by the Holy Son.
The emperor, who had shown respect to Dave before, now treated him with even more reverence and sought to form connections with him. He was delighted that his son had connected with Dave and believed that his status in the Royal Clan might rise if others knew about it. He planned to boast about the connection and saw it as a once-in-a-lifetime chance.
News of Dave’s status shocked many families, and they sent numerous gifts to his residence in an attempt to curry favor with him. Dave accepted the gifts without much concern, aware of their intentions.
Curious about his family’s history, Dave asked Old Ming about how his father became the Holy Son despite having ascended not long ago. Old Ming provided some answers.
According to Old Ming, when Lucas and his grandpa ascended, they were directly taken to the domain of the Alexander Clan due to the token of Lucio, Dave’s grandpa, which Lucien had left behind. The current Patriarch of the Alexander Clan is Dave’s great grandfather, Lucien Alexander, who was said to stand at the peak of the True Saint realm and was feared for his strength in his era.
Lucas’s bloodline was pure, and the Alexander Clan Members and Elders recognized him as the rightful holy son. His talent was exceptional, as he broke through several levels in one go upon ascending and became an Imperial Saint King. The position of the Holy Son had been vacant for many years, and Lucas fulfilled the prophecy of the patriarch about the appearance of the best holy son.
Lucio, Dave’s shameless grandpa, was grounded and locked in his residence initially due to causing trouble during his ascension. Nevertheless, he was strong, and his grandma excelled in alchemy and held a high position in the clan.
The other guardians who came with them also did well and became part of Lucas’s guards. Lucas’s young age and monstrous strength were shocking news to everyone.
Lucas was still young, but he confidently proclaimed that his son was even more monstrous than him. This news shocked many, and they couldn’t fathom where he got such confidence in his son’s abilities.
At first, people thought Lucas was just bragging, trying to create fame for Dave. However, Old Ming came to believe in the truth of Lucas’s words. He could sense an endless suppression emanating from Dave, and despite being much older than him, Old Ming could feel that Dave could easily kill him if he wished.
Not only was Dave immensely powerful, but even his followers were exceptionally strong. The mortal plane they came from seemed miraculous, and Old Ming couldn’t understand how Dave had become so formidable in such a short time since ascending.
Dave’s reputation preceded him, with tales of his deeds spreading far and wide. Even some clan members had heard about him. The holy son finally realized that Dave had arrived in the Immortal Plane, which deeply surprised him. In response, he immediately ordered Old Ming and the others to bring Dave to the clan to prevent any further trouble.
Dave didn’t mind going to the clan; in fact, he missed his father, other relatives like his Grandma Stella, but definitely not his shameless Grandfather Lucio.
With such a strong backing in the clan, Dave was assured that his life there would be smooth sailing.
Before heading to the clan, Dave checked on Grace and found her still immersed in cultivation. He decided to take her and bring her inside his space world for a quieter place to cultivate. He also kept an eye on his other women, knowing that they were safe and growing stronger under Tracy’s care.
Old Ming revealed a lot of information to Dave, fearing both his strength and status. In this world, respect was earned through both status and power. While Old Ming might be respected and esteemed in other worlds, in the Alexander Clan, he was just a humble servant. This illustrated the terrifying and deep heritage of the clan.
No one dared to provoke them; even the top clans avoided conflicts with the Alexander Clan, fearing the depth of their strength. Lucien, the youngest patriarch, held many secrets about the clan’s ancient patriarchs, who were possibly still sleeping and hibernating within the clan, ready to emerge in times of great disaster.
Even the Royal Clan, the largest force in the Immortal Plane and shrouded in mystery, avoided direct confrontations with the Alexander Clan.
Dave couldn’t help but realize the immense power of his clan and felt grateful for being born into such an influential family. While many protagonists in novels started in poor families, facing bullying and lack of talent, Dave’s life was the opposite. Born into a rich and powerful family, he had a favorable starting point and possessed unparalleled talent, further amplified by his system.
With such strength and backing, Dave knew that no one would dare to offend him, although there might be enemies lurking in the shadows trying to harm him. However, he exuded confidence that no one in the Immortal Plane could harm him due to his formidable laws.
Unafraid of anyone, even Gods and Demon Lords, Dave knew that it would be others who would fear him in the end.
