"For a while, I walked in immediately after those lofty clan heads left, and I appreciate greatly all that this brute had said" The man who had suddenly appeared said as he smiled venomously.

"Fieryboulder, he was just been careful" The mayor hurriedly said, he didn't want himself or Darkneedle to appear on the wrong side of this man.

"I actually don't care, for now I will act like a dove, but be careful to watch your back, cause immediately I achieve what I am here for. Haha, you would be in for some mess" Fieryboulder uttered and raised his eyebrows mockingly. To a man with the heart of a boulder like his, his threats were never mere!

"You know what am here for?"Fieryboulder said he signalled with his hands towards the mayor.

The mayor stared at the talisman on his hands, and a hint of reluctance and greed, couldn't help but flash across his eyes, this talisman was able to make the three powers in vine city unable to refuse his request, even as overbearing as it was. Such power!

He raised his head and stared at the emotionless face of fieryboulder and couldn't help but sigh, if it wasn't for the fact that he wasn't pretty sure about the latter's cultivation strength, and mostly because he had drops of essence blood in his possession, he would have ordered Darkneedle to get rid of him, but for someone who is able to have such talisman in his possession, then he was no ordinary person.

"Kiki, you want to keep it?" Fieryboulder chuckled wickedly, and clenched his fist, which suddenly became glossy and a bit of transparent.

"No, brother Fieryboulder, I dare not!" The mayor's face immediately became gloomy.

"Then, send it over!" Yelled Fieryboulder with no trace of emotion on his face.

"Yes! Yes!" The mayor replied hurriedly and didn't dare show any sign of reluctance what so ever, he kept the talisman in the middle of his two fingers and shot it towards Fieryboulder who lightning-quick caught it with a flick of his hands.

"Sir, hope you haven't forgotten our agreement" The mayor blinked, and asked with caution.

"Hey, it's not of my business, the deal is with the clan, but be rest assured, the clan wouldn't cheat someone like you, what do you expect the world to think of us?"

"Okay!"

"When you see me again, don't act as though you know me, if you act funny, then be sure that the deal is terminated!" Fieryboulder who walked gracefully out of the palace slowly uttered.

**********

Two weeks later...

In a flash two weeks darted by, and the new clan which suddenly sprang up became the topic in everyone's mouth, especially how the the three powers surprisingly decided to willingly as they had put their intentions, donate a part of their territory to this clan.

The populace found it amazing and bizarre

When had the martial world become so generous?

For Lee the past weeks had been arduous and enjoyable at the same time, the boost in strength baffled him badly that he began to wonder how his body could have such latent talent for body cultivation.

"Whoosh!" " Whoosh!"

"Bam!"

A human shadow danced in the air, and shadows of huge hammers flew around him, he slammed the air and the wind muffled a bit from the sheer force present in the attack.

The shadow leaped into the air and spined alongside the huge hammers in his hands. He pierced the air and came striking the ground with the colossal hammers in his hands.

"Bang!"

The ground shook, and sand particles burst out in the air like a mini tornado, the ground beneath the hammers caved in a bit.

The shadow didn't take more than breath before he dashed once again, his target this time was a nearby tree. Suddenly after crossing at least half of the distance, he dropped the hammer, and flashed like a phantom.

He appeared beside the tree and chopped down his right leg towards the tree like an axe.

"Bang!"

His somewhat feeble leg seemed to contain an astronomical amount of energy as his leg broke through the tough tree like butter, the part that received the attack broke into fragments

"I don't seem to understand, I'm already able to lift this 300 Pims hammers in just a matter of few weeks, isn't that monstrous" Lee thought aloud as he slowly walked back to the spot where he dropped the hammers.

Lee grabbed one of the hammers and as though he was picking paper flipped it in the air, the difference in demeanour and strength in just few weeks had taking a sharp turn.

Lee sighed, he had been busy training all through for two weeks and so he didn't know much of what was going on in the clan and vine city, but information of the new clan had reached him, the servants and maids in the house did a good job in that, he had not the chance to meet his father, who had been busy all through with the new development.

Lee raised his foot and walked towards a certain area in the courtyard. He sat on a boulder and checked his surrounding a bit before he flicked his hands and two mystical cores appeared on his palm.

He closed his eyes and began to absorb the pure energy present in the cores, like a sponge his body began to take in the energy slowly.

This continued for a while, but Lee was feeling some strange movements in his body, every time he absorbed the energy from the core into his body he felt a strange energy build in his body.

This continued until Lee finally knew what was wrong he was about to have a breakthrough!
