“Ah…” David Bolton's body trembled, his knees buckling involuntarily as if to kneel, almost dropping to the ground. But just then, a miserable scream sounded from outside, and the sounds of fighting jolted him.
He was here to kill this brat—how could he be frightened by him? Yet at this moment, William Carter's clothes were completely stained red with blood, a truly shocking sight.
David Bolton suddenly stood up, pointing at David Bolton: “You damned bastard, a useless nobody like you wants me to kneel? Today I’ll show you…”
“Show me what?” William Carter walked step by step toward David Bolton, looking at him as if he were an idiot, and said, “Show me that you want to rebel, that you want to kill your master? Or that you secretly drugged me to harm me, or that you embezzled things, that you took Foundation Establishment Pills from others, that you waited for someone to come even if it meant getting beaten, even if it meant kneeling—tell me, what do you want me to know?”
By the time William Carter finished speaking, he was already standing less than two meters in front of David Bolton, facing him directly.
At this moment, David Bolton's expression was truly spectacular, the muscles on his face twitching nonstop, as if he had been stripped bare and exposed before everyone.
He knows—he… knows everything. He deliberately hit me, the Foundation Establishment Pills, my Foundation Establishment Pills…
“Give me back my Foundation Establishment Pills…” The other things only made David Bolton embarrassed and angry, but thinking of the Foundation Establishment Pills drove him nearly insane. He raised his right hand and lunged to grab William Carter's throat.
“Pa…” A crisp slap rang out. Just as David Bolton felt his hand reach William Carter's throat, William Carter raised his hand and slapped him hard across the face.
“Boom… rumble… bang bang… crash…” But this time, unlike before, the force was overwhelming. Even though David Bolton was at the ninth level of Qi Drawing, had activated his spiritual energy, and even had a layer of black flame-like energy covering his body, he was still sent flying by the powerful blow.
He crashed directly into a pile of messy items and medicines behind him, instantly causing chaos as things tumbled everywhere.
“Oh dear, I’m really sorry.” William Carter looked apologetically at his right hand and said, “Earlier, I hit you on purpose to provoke you, so you wouldn’t have time to think about anything else. Actually, hitting you was just to trick you, to fool you. But I didn’t expect to get used to it, and now my hand just moves on its own. It seems my strength has increased a bit, I’m really sorry. Why don’t you get up and we can talk some more?”
“Pfft…” Watching from inside the cauldron, Tommy couldn’t help but burst out laughing at William Carter’s words.
“Ah, boom…” With a roar, David Bolton’s power exploded, blasting away the debris around him. In an instant, he leapt into the air, swinging his arms, his hands slicing through the air with blade-like force.
“Nine Palaces Chaotic Slash.”
David Bolton had followed William Carter for over ten years, bullying others by relying on his master’s power. Not only had he forcibly raised his strength to the ninth level of Qi Drawing, but he had also learned many techniques. This was one reason he had grown more confident and less willing to remain subordinate. The Nine Palaces Chaotic Slash was a technique he had obtained from the King of Zhen Guo in the capital and presented to him. Among Qi Drawing cultivators, it was definitely a top-tier technique.
He had fought others of the same level before—even two or three at once were no match for him. And after this move, he still had more… more…
“Bang bang bang…” The Nine Palaces Chaotic Slash, covering a range of four or five meters, struck down in a crisscross pattern. But in the next moment, David Bolton realized—the person was gone. All the blade energy struck the ground, carving deep trenches several meters deep.
Where was he?
“Bang…” Just then, David Bolton heard a thud above his head, and then saw a dark figure drop down.
“Next time, don’t fucking jump around, okay? Bang…” The dark figure had clearly just leapt up and now landed, moving so fast that before David Bolton could react, he was kicked flying, sent hurtling across the courtyard.
“Wow!” Tommy, watching from afar, finally saw that it was the young master who had landed. Looking up, she realized the roof now had two big holes smashed through it.
“Don’t come out yet, things are a bit chaotic right now. Wait until I’ve dealt with them, then you can come out.” William Carter turned and instructed Tommy, slowly descending from midair and striding outside.
In his previous life in the Immortal Realm, he had just reached Foundation Establishment when the entire realm hunted him down—even the Immortal Emperor personally took action, leaving him no chance to do anything else. Now, although he had reached Foundation Establishment again, he actually didn’t have much experience in other areas, especially since he had just gained this power and found it hard to control. Just now, he had jumped too hard and smashed through the roof.
But the physical strength of a Foundation Establishment cultivator was truly terrifying, especially since William Carter’s body was even stronger than most at the third level of Foundation Establishment. So just relying on physical strength, he could easily crush David Bolton.
“Boom!” David Bolton wasn’t just sent flying out of the house—he crashed into the courtyard, knocking over several pillars.
“What’s going on?” At this moment, in the courtyard, Jack Smith and his men had already slaughtered all the guards. He was about to send some subordinates to deal with the ordinary soldiers and wipe out the rest of the post station, while he led others to see what tricks the person who hired him was up to—when suddenly, he saw David Bolton get kicked flying out.
