Bob tried to struggle to his feet, but the intense pain made it impossible.
Cyan walked towards Bob step by step, like a grim reaper approaching.
Bob’s heart was filled with despair. He knew the vast difference between a Martial Cultivator and an ordinary person, so he understood he had no chance of turning the situation around.
“Bob, I’ll give you a chance to live. Kneel before me and lick my shoes clean,” Cyan said, standing in front of Bob, not intending to end his life with a single stroke.
A man can be killed but not humiliated. Bob, a big shot in Langstel’s nightlife, couldn’t bear such humiliation. He lifted his head and angrily said, “If you’re going to kill me, do it quickly and stop talking nonsense!”
“Very well, you’re a real man. I’ll grant your wish!” Cyan raised his blade towards Bob’s neck.
With force in his right hand, he swung down.
If this powerful strike landed, Bob’s head would be severed.
Clang!
A crisp metallic sound rang out as Cyan’s blade suddenly broke, the upper half nearly piercing his foot.
“Who is it!?” Cyan was shocked.
Chasel’s eyes lit up, and he breathed a long sigh of relief because he saw Leo’s figure.
Leo’s arrival meant that he and Bob were no longer in mortal danger.
Before coming here, Chasel had taken it upon himself to call Leo because he had a bad premonition.
Now it seemed that the call was very wise.
Half an hour earlier, Leo was having dinner in the villa’s dining room when he received Chasel’s call. After explaining the situation to Sophia, he rushed over.
Since the other party directly challenged Bob, it indicated they were prepared. Leo knew Bob was proud and might suffer a loss.
Fortunately, he arrived in time. If he had been a few seconds later, Bob would have become a cold corpse.
Seeing Leo suddenly appear, Cyan squinted his eyes.
“Leo, Leo, why… why are you here?” Bob was surprised by Leo’s arrival.
“Bob, you’re a big shot in Langstel’s nightlife. How did you get bitten by a mad dog?” Leo looked at Bob and teased.
Bob smiled bitterly. “Brother, are you here to help me or to laugh at me?”
“I came all this way. What do you think?” Leo completely ignored Cyan’s presence and asked back.
Standing aside, Cyan couldn’t take it anymore and roared, “Kid, where the hell did you come from? How dare you meddle in my business!?”
Leo waved his hand as if shooing away a fly.
Smack!
A crisp sound echoed.
Cyan flew sideways and landed heavily on the ground, his cheek swelling up while blood oozed from the corner of his mouth.
Just a Warrior Realm Martial Cultivator dared to make noise in front of him.
Cyan’s men were stunned at first, then they waved their weapons and charged at Leo with shouts.
What happened next left Bob and Chasel dumbfounded.
Leo’s body turned into a blur. After a series of crisp hits, there were screams one after another.
In just over ten seconds, all of Cyan’s men were lying on the ground, clutching their injured parts and screaming in pain.
Leo then walked up to Cyan.
Cyan struggled to sit up from the ground. His gaze towards Leo had completely changed, like a wild dog seeing a tiger.
“You… you’re a Martial Cultivator!?” Cyan’s voice trembled.
Leo didn’t answer his question but lifted his foot and stomped down.
Crack!
The sound of bones breaking echoed clearly.
“Ahhh…!”
Cyan’s miserable screams followed.
Leo lifted his foot again and stomped down once more.
The shattering of both leg bones caused Cyan to faint from the pain.
After paralyzing Cyan, Leo returned to Bob and handed him a Vitality Pill.
“What’s this?”
“A healing pill. Take it.”
Bob took it and swallowed it.
The pill melted in his mouth, and Bob felt a warm current spreading from his stomach to his limbs, greatly alleviating his pain.
“Leo, how did you know I was here?” Bob asked.
“Chasel told me.” Leo said as he walked towards Chasel and gave him a Vitality Pill as well.
Three minutes later, Bob and Chasel finally managed to stand up from the ground.
Leo’s terrifying combat power and miraculous pills once again refreshed Bob’s understanding of him.
“Leo, you saved my life. Thank you.”
“Leo, thank you!”
Bob and Chasel thanked Leo simultaneously.
Leo waved his hand. “No need to be so formal between us.”
He then handed Bob an ancient book he had taken from the Void Storage Talisman earlier. “This is a martial arts manual. You and Chasel can try practicing it. If you can sense Qi, you can become Martial Cultivators.”
Bob took it and saw four words on the cover-Seven Stars Internal Technique.
Becoming a powerful Martial Cultivator had always been Bob’s dream. Now this dream seemed within reach.
“Leo, are you a Martial Cultivator?” Chasel asked what Bob also wanted to know.
“I…” Leo raised an eyebrow. “Sort of. Let’s go.”
Today’s events made Leo decide to turn Bob and Chasel into Martial Cultivators.
Even if they lacked the innate talent for martial arts, once Leo advanced to the Spirit Venerable Realm, he could use pills and Spiritual Power to transform their bodies and make them Martial Cultivators.
After settling Bob’s matter, Leo’s life was peaceful for the next few days. Besides training, he spent time at the clinic seeing patients.
However, peaceful life was always short-lived for someone like Leo.
One noon while having lunch, a cute little girl suddenly ran into the clinic.
“Little friend, are you here to buy medicine?” Sakura put down her bowl and chopsticks, walked up to the girl, squatted down, and asked with a smile.
The little girl shook her head and said in a childish voice, “Big sister, is there someone named Leo here?”
Everyone turned their gaze to Leo upon hearing the girl’s words.
Leo was slightly taken aback. He walked forward and said, “Little friend, I am Leo. What do you need from me?”
The little girl extended her right hand from behind her back, revealing an envelope in her hand.
“Someone asked me to give this to you,” she said.
Leo curiously took the envelope and asked, “Who asked you to give this to me?”
“Hehe, I don’t know. Goodbye!” The little girl said and then hopped away cheerfully.
Leo opened the envelope out of curiosity and found a note inside.
He took out the note which read: If you don’t want anyone to die at your clinic, come to Northern Wastelands at 4 PM today.
This was an open threat!
