"Kid! Weren't you acting all arrogant just now? Don't think that just because you're at the sixth level of Body Refinement, or even if you were at the ninth level, it would make any difference! Trash is destined to be trash! Killing you would only dirty my blade!" As Frank Bolton finished laughing, he pressed his knife against Eric Bennett's neck, a look of utter disdain on his face. After speaking, he finally moved the blade away from Eric Bennett's neck, but a bloody mark had already appeared there.

"With just you, do you deserve to have a Qi Condensing Pill?" Frank Bolton put away his knife and took out the porcelain bottle that Jack Bolton had just given to Eric Bennett from Eric Bennett's chest.

He didn't care about the Blood Replenishing Pill, but the Qi Condensing Pill was his annual quota, so of course Frank Bolton wouldn't let it go.

Chapter 11: Inch Step

Eric Bennett's hands clenched tightly. Although he still had enough strength to kill Frank Bolton right now, he knew he couldn't make a move.

"Michael Bolton, give him the agreed reward. Whether he survives or not depends on his luck!" Jack Bolton had no objection to Frank Bolton's actions. In fact, he had never intended to give these things to Eric Bennett in the first place. Was it so easy to take something that belonged to Jack Bolton?

After Jack Bolton and the others finished speaking, they ordered a few people to dismantle the most valuable materials from the Blue-Eyed Green Wolf, then got up and left.

Michael Bolton sighed, took out a hundred taels of silver from his pocket, placed it beside Eric Bennett, and turned to leave with Jack Bolton.

To Jack Bolton and the others, Eric Bennett was just an insignificant nobody. Whether he lived or died wouldn't affect them much at all. Even if he reached the ninth level of Body Refinement, even a guard from the Zhang family could easily crush him, let alone at his current level. Would it even be possible to reach the ninth level of Body Refinement without ten or twenty years of cultivation?

By then, given their talent, Eric Bennett wouldn't even be worthy to carry their shoes. Even now, Jack Bolton couldn't defeat someone at the ninth level of Body Refinement, let alone ten or twenty years from now.

Watching the Zhang family walk away, Eric Bennett's anger surged. In his previous life, Eric Bennett had stood at the pinnacle of the world, controlling life and death, with countless high officials and nobles begging him for treatment, pleading desperately. But now, he was actually looked down upon by a few teenagers. This made Eric Bennett furious. However, he also understood that in this world, only strength—true strength—could allow him to control his own and his family's fate.

"Eric Bennett, are you alright?" At this moment, Brian Cooper limped over from a distance.

"I'm fine!"

Right now, Eric Bennett's main issue was damage to his meridians; his body wasn't in too bad a shape, so he could still move with some effort. Fortunately, after Eric Bennett had frantically circulated his cultivation technique, he had released all his power. Otherwise, even if he had survived by luck, he would have been seriously injured, and in these outer mountain forests, even a poisonous insect could have taken his life.

"Brian Cooper, come, let's take the flesh and blood of this beast back!"

The Zhang family disciples had only taken the most valuable materials from the Blue-Eyed Green Wolf, leaving the rest behind.

"Alright!" Hearing Eric Bennett's words, Brian Cooper was very excited. With so much flesh and blood, he could definitely break through to the second level of the Iron Body Technique, maybe even the third.

The two of them divided up the beast's flesh and blood, then began to search the bodies of the eighteen Flying Tiger Squad members. Jack Bolton and the other family disciples were far too proud to use anything from a dead man's body.

After they finished, Eric Bennett walked over to Paul Carter and began searching him.

"Hmm? What's this?" Suddenly, Eric Bennett felt something book-like on Paul Carter's chest, which made him very curious.

Eric Bennett lifted his clothes but didn't find anything. After checking carefully, he discovered that the book-shaped object was actually sewn into the lining of Paul Carter's clothes.

"Inch Step"—Eric Bennett stared at the title on the cover, lost in thought. Just now, when he saw Paul Carter dodging the Blue-Eyed Green Wolf, every time it seemed about to pounce on him, Paul Carter would narrowly avoid it by a hair's breadth. Was that Inch Step?

If it really was, then this Inch Step was a very advanced manual. For Paul Carter, who was only at the third level of Body Refinement, to escape pursuit from a second-tier beast, that alone showed it was extraordinary.

Eric Bennett glanced at the manual and quickly put it away close to his body.

Manuals were extremely precious on the Sirius Continent. Normally, Eric Bennett would never have had a chance to obtain one in his entire life. Not just in his village—even in all the villages within a hundred miles, aside from basic manuals, no one had ever heard of a village possessing a more advanced manual. Eric Bennett never expected Paul Carter to have one.

"Looks like Paul Carter also had a stroke of luck. Otherwise, after two years at the first level of Body Refinement, how did he suddenly advance to the third level, and even have the most precious movement technique manual!" Eric Bennett thought to himself as he looked at Paul Carter, now headless.

"Huh! Is there more?" Suddenly, Eric Bennett found a small porcelain bottle in Paul Carter's backpack.

"A Qi Condensing Pill?" Eric Bennett opened the bottle and, seeing two pills inside, was a little surprised.

He hadn't expected Paul Carter to have such precious pills. If used well, a Qi Condensing Pill could directly change a person's fate.

Although these weren't considered very valuable in those great families, in families like theirs, they were absolutely rare treasures. If word got out, it could even bring about slaughter.

"Brother Feng, are you done packing up?"

"All done! Let's go, we need to leave quickly!"
