Select each of the websites that appear in that list and click the Remove button. Repeat until no more websites appear in that list. Make it empty.

I did uncheck the bottom "allow ask for permission..."

Good.

If you are using Safari, open Safari > Preferences/Settings > Websites > Notifications and empty the list.

I don't know which version of macOS you are running so would either be Preferences or Settings.

Thank you so much for the wonderful explanation. I followed your instruction under websites> only setup (round clock sign)notification "allow" there. If I empty it then I won't know any update notification?. Should I change it into "deny"? I did uncheck the bottom "allow ask for permission..."

What else can I do, this popup is really annoying.

Thank You again.
