In the abandoned factory of Dongcheng, a blond hair handsome youth stared at the man with cross piercing on his ears after a moment of silence. "So those three were already caught?"
"Paul, don't talk to us like you are our superior, we are here for the sake of young master, not yours." It was clear that the man with piercing was displeased by the youth attitude. Black long curly hair hanging on his face, a man on his 20's frown with his black eyes as he stared at the youth in front of him.
He was a loyal man of young master Clarence, so being ordered around by his young master lackey was humiliating himself. Even if his status on the family is below of that an elder, his strength was not something this lackey could comprehend.
With the cultivation of peak 6th stage cultivation realm, his importance to the family was no joke as the expert can only count with a finger. The Pontic Family belong on the middle power in the country, so underestimating this power was provoking a hornet nest because of the high ranking family secluding themselves from the modern affair. All of the middle power now has the control over the outside world such as politics, business, and connection.
But the family belonging to the middle power doesn't dare to cause trouble with the high rank as it will lead to their extermination, the strength of an ordinary member of the high-rank family can even equal the head of the middle-rank patriarch. So the difference between heaven and earth was not overestimated, the standing that the high ranking family could only make the mid-rank family look up to them.
As for the lower rank and ordinary citizen?
They can only reach their shoes not worthy of their attention. "Sorry, Brother Wei, but this is also under the order of young master Clarence." Facing the pressure of 6th body strengthening stage Paul's face turned pale as he nearly kneeled on the ground.
Brother Wei didn't retract the pressure as he said. " It's good that you know your standing, we already caught the three so do what you want. But don't hurt or kill Jack or else I may not ensure your life, okay?" Brother Wei patted his shoulder like a good brother, but Paul knew what he meant so he nodded with vigor like a chicken craving for food.
"Who!?" Brother Wei shouted as he sensed someone suddenly appeared behind them. Brother Wei subordinate and Paul was startled as they instinctively turned their head behind them, a tired voice traveled to ears when they are searching for the figure that appeared behind them. "As expected, with the strength of Peak 6th stage body strengthening, to perceived my presence that's amazing."
Jack figure appeared in the shadow as he lazily looks at the people in front of him, Brother Wei vigilance increased. "Bastard, do you know who are you talking too?" A man with Brother Wei shouted at him, but he didn't attack and look at Wei waiting for his order.
Wei looks at the Jack in front of him and a sense that he was only at the 1st level of body strengthening, so he nodded his head to his subordinate. "I am surprised that you also cultivate the way of martial arts but too bad you are only at the 1st level."

Acedia glance at the seven-man who surrounded him."Hmm, not bad, all of them are at 3rd level." A man behind him suddenly attacks with a punch aiming at his head, when the attack was about to hit him.
Acedia looks at the punch as he silently shook his head as he said. "So slow." The man stared at Acedia with shock as he felt that his body weight increased by two-fold.
"1st lesson, with you cultivating the supreme technique you possess the strength of the 3rd level of a Martial artist while you are at the 1st level." Jack retrieve the Seal Knife on his space and slash towards the man neck.
"An immortal cultivation technique was like heaven and earth with the practice of this world trashy Martial Practices. Together with your psychic power, you can rival the 4th level body strengthening expert by using it to pressure the enemy to distract the control of their body. By doing so, the pressure you put on them is like a gravity force that made their body handle two times of their body weight. Of course, this was only possible at the same level or one stage above yours." While explaining a lot of things for Jack, Acedia was like a ghost that will suddenly appear beside his enemy and slicing their throat with a single strike.
After an incense of time, the seven-man fell to their knees while holding their throat spurting with blood. Wei look at this with killing intent, those men are his brothers so killing them was like slapping his face. But he held his anger and remained calm, as he analyzes the scene happening in front of him. Paul who saw the cruelty of the world for the first turned pale and ran to side as he vomits all of the content of his stomach.
'Such a cruel person, young master Clarence will surely feel threatened by this man. 1st level of body strengthening killing the 3rd level with ease like he was only butchering a chicken, the 5th level of body strengthening will not even accomplish what he has done.' Wei thought was turmoil as he observes a deadly crisis suddenly arose from his heart.
'I have to kill him while he was only at the 1st level of body strengthening or else the future of the family will not be at ease with his existence.' Wei thought silently.
"Tsk, for revealing this much, you are asking to be killed." Wei took a knife as he stared at the monster in front of him.
Acedia didn't bother to talk with Wei, as he teleported in front of him and held his head with a hand. "Sorry, I am done playing, could you sleep for a while." Like hypnotizing, Wei body went limp as he suddenly felt drowsiness and fell asleep in the ground.
"Well, that a surprise attack for you, that for lesson number 3. Hold your trump card until the end as it will be the deciding factor of the outcome of the battle." Acedia transmits his thought to Jack.
'But why would you left him alive?' Ask Jack.
"Fufu, of course, to give you some time. Don't you think that giving a warning to their boss will give us some time improving ourselves?" Acedia said with a lazy smile still hang on his face.
"And changing some memories may damage an ordinary human, but tampering a martial artist memory slightly was not a big deal, Ehe;" Acedia said with a grin as he approached Wei and hold his forehead with his palm.
Acedia concentrated a bit and used his psychic power to change the memory of Wei fighting him. Changing his appearance and transmitted some words before he fainted were put on Wei's brain.
"Now then, next one." Acedia looks at Paul trembling appearance as he approached him slowly.
This action made Paul frightened as he crawls backward and muttering. "A monster, monster."
When he saw that Acedia was already in front of him, like a frightened rabbit he jumped and said. "Y You... If you have this kind of power, why did you pretend like a waste."
Acedia look at Paul and lightly shook his head as put his hand to his forehead. He leaned towards his ears and whispered. " Because I am lazy to care." Looking at the Paul who lose the light in his eyes, Acedia closes his eyes and said." Done, let's return a lot of visitors came." Along with the distorted space, Acedia figure disappeared along with it.
Everything return to normal except for the blood and corpse on the ground.
