Chapter 406 - 406: Interest & Unrest
But even though there were no normal people around the area, there were still Cui Xie and the others in there who perfectly took the spot of the mind blown people.
How could they not be after all, against all thoughts and beliefs that they might have had, the one who was thrown away wasn\'t Eric, but the old man Ma.
Not only that, but he was sent flying and crashing upon some rocks and trees, and his current look and situation was nothing short of a crap beaten poor old man.
There were scratches, bruises, blood, and bones appearing all over his body, making him look more of a dead guy than someone who was still among the living.
"Ho-How~!"
Young Master Cui Xie was unable to resist his shock anymore, as he couldn\'t help but scream at himself for what had just happened. He didn\'t understand how it was possible.
All this looked just like some kind of nightmare, even those geniuses in the big ancient families didn\'t have the strength to beat someone of the Second Realm, while being still in the First Realm.
Just what kind of monster was this guy in front of him!? And how come this was only the first time that he was hearing about him?
It just didn\'t make sense! Someone with that potential and strength shouldn\'t be unknown. But why didn\'t he have any information upon this guy.
The only probable and logical reason ringing in his ears would be that Eric had changed his appearance, and this wasn\'t his real face.
But if that was the case, then why did his face feel so real, just like it was his original skin? Young Master Cui Xie was unable to understand how it was possible, which made him even more complicated.
On the other hand, Eric finally moved from his spot, as he started walking with heavy steps towards his victim, and then with some quick movements fixed his broken bones.
Then without the slightest hesitation, he took out a Medium quality Health Potion and stuffed it inside the old man\'s mouth. That should be enough for him to recover in 2 or 3 days.
In the meantime he turned towards Cui Xie and said,
"Do you have any house or villa outside the city to rest? I guess that we wont be able to return back in the city for a few days in order to reach what we want!"
It was only at that moment that Young Master Cui Xie was finally able to wake up from his stupor, look at Eric with a strange gaze, and then say,
"I have! It\'s not far away from here actually!"
"Very well then, let us head there, and make the fine tunes of my planes! In the meantime, fix me an appointment with your sister, I want to have a look at her for myself!"
Young Master Cui Xie couldn\'t help but flinch for a moment when he heard Eric\'s words, as he then asked with a strange voice,
"Do you truly intend to make her your woman?"
"That depends on whether she is good enough for me to do so!"
Cui Xie was about to jump and scream that his sister was the best in the world, but considering the current situation they were in, that would have been extremely weird, and embarrassing.
The truth was that he still had his own reservations against Eric but considering the current situation it didn\'t seem like he had any other choice.
Forgetting about anything else, just the facts that he already had Eric\'s slave seal upon himself, together with old man Ma, and his close people, coupled with Eric strength potential.
He felt like he wasn\'t worthy to even carry Eric\'s shoes. His little sister was his weak point, but just like any brother he would like for her to be happy, and with someone worthy of her.
If he considered these two points, then Eric might be just the man for the job. But that would depend on whether he would actually be able to steal her heart.
Otherwise, even if he knew that he was going to die for uselessly and with just a thought, he would still not accept it.
Thinking like that, he managed to calm down quite a bit, as he looked at Eric with a lighter expression and said,
"Okay! You will meet her tomorrow!"
"Oh~! You don\'t seem like you hate this idea a lot!? Why so?"
"What can I do even if I do hate it? I am extremely weak right now, and that is my own fault. I only hope that you make her happy if she choses you, and if she doesn\'t then I will try to take you down with me!"
"Interesting! Extremely interesting! You are the first Young Master I meet that seems to actually have a few grains of brain in your head!
Let me tell you this though, if you manage to satisfy me with obedience and work, I promise to help you get strong enough to get your own revenge!
But only if you manage to satisfy me though!"
His words threw Young Master Cui Xie in a disarray of emotions, as lately he had lost all hope in his revenge against the Ling Clan.
But right now, for some odd reason he truly believed Eric\'s words, and truly thought that perhaps he might truly be able to in the future.
Without further ado, Young Master Cui Xie lead the way, while Eric and the others followed behind him. Those four helpers of Cui Xie had prepared a small stretcher for the old man to carry him.
It didn\'t take them long to finally arrive at their destination, as with their strength, any wild animal was nothing more than hunt and extra food.
The place was nothing more than a forest villa, surrounded by trees, a small river crossing behind, and a stables for horses, and a few other animals.
As much as Eric would have loved a rest, he couldn\'t do so at the moment, because there was another person he was worried about, and that was Ren Jia.
After their separation he hadn\'t been able to contact her lately, and he feared that she might do something stupid for his sake.
For that reason, as long as he located the house, and its position, he immediately separated from the group, and made his way towards the shore.
It took him around 20 minutes to find the cave that he had let as a meeting point with Ren Jia, but he still managed to find it easily, and entered inside.
Ren Jia seemed close to breaking down from worry when he arrived, as his heart couldn\'t help but beat a little stronger and get a bit warmer.
Without hesitation, he appeared in front of her, as the beauty seemed completely shocked by his sudden appearance.
The moment that her shock, and startle disappeared was the moment that she jumped from her spot and threw herself into his arms.
After a few warm and sweet moments together, Eric and the beauty finally left the cave and made their way towards the Forest Villa.
Due to the quiet and calm surroundings, Eric thought of making that place his new center of operations, and his living quarters.
That would be only during the time he was free though, as it would be extremely difficult for him to squeeze some free time, as he had come in this place for business and not for vacations.
It was close to the dawn break when Eric finally returned to the Forest Villa with the beauty by his side, as the Longgang City had turned bloody, and scary in a short time.
When the cat suddenly leaves the house, then the mice will most certainly start dancing all over the place, the same was happening in the City.
A lot of Underworld groups, and organizations were having a go at each other in order to profit from this opportunity and take control.
The most prominent ones seemed to be two drug dealing gangs, that had the money in their side, and one traditional Chinese mafia sect, called Thousand Hands.
While Thousand Hands seemed to be wanting to stay and watch, the other two gangs seemed to come up with a compromise, and then turn their guns towards them.
In just half a day, more than half of the Thousand Hands organization had been either sent to the hospital, while the heads were killed.
Even though only certain death would protect these drug dealing organization from any possible stupid revenge in the future, they couldn\'t kill them all.
If they crossed the line too much, and too quickly then no matter how much money they gave to the police, they would still be caught and thrown in jail.
So, no matter how unwilling they were, they had to leave this guys alive, or close to being alive. All the hospitalized goons were going to stay in hospital for at least half a year, or more.
But after taking care of the common enemy, the two drug dealing mafia organizations, seemed to have broken all decorum with each other, and war started once again.
It was just like those famous years of the famous Sicilian Mafia, or the time of Toto Rina, streets were slowly drenched in blood, while the higherups shed crocodile tears for their loses.
While Longgang City was experienced such a terrible situation, the person responsible for most of it, was looking at a great beauty in front of him…
