Before Jasmine called Alex, he was at Sakura Club. Initially, Alex wanted to craft some pills using the thousand–year–old purple ginseng. He intended to use half of it to create some Pills of Longevity, while the other half would be used for the Big Pills of Cultivation.

With his current level of Mortal Force, only the Big Pill of Cultivation would have an effect on his body.

Yet, his plans were interrupted. Alex found himself fuming with anger after he received Jasmine’s call.

He wasn’t angry that Heather was on a date with another man.

Instead, Alex was furious that Heather had gotten Dylan hurt. After all, Dylan was a sworn brother of Alex’s.

All of a sudden, Alex felt that something was amiss. Promptly, he leaned back as a bullet whizzed across the front of his face before it collided against the car window and shattered the glass. If Alex hadn’t ducked in time, the bullet would have been lodged in his head. Fortunately, his gut instincts had saved his life.

Before Alex could delve on his near escape from death, he stomped on the gas and sped off into the empty road.
