A Cultivation Tale: The Godly Punisher

Chapter 360: Where does his confidence come from?

Once Alex said that, the three masked people who had gathered before him, looked at him with intense surprise in their eyes.

From the statement that Alex made, it was like he had been expecting them to appear before him.

They however didn't think too much about what he said and then made their own statement.

"Bastard, it's time to give us your life." One of them said while Alex grinned.

"Why don't you give me your life instead?" Alex asked with an hideous smile appearing in his face.

Then before they could say or do anything to him, Alex suddenly dashed away from their midst.

This caused the group of three that surrounded him to have their cold eyes shine with shock. Then they abruptly shot into the air to go after him.

Then feeling that perhaps the group of three people that went to confront Alex had foolishly revealed to him that they were killers, causing him to suddenly take off off in a particular direction, the rest of his enemies who stayed behind to only come out after the rest had intensely battled themselves and grievously injured themselves, had angry gazes instantly appear in their eyes.

Then they stopped what they were doing and shot into the air to go after Alex who could suddenly hear numerous whooshing sounds of something moving through the air towards him with his Enhanced Hearing. He then produced a delighted smile in his face. 

'The bastards have finally come out to show themselves. Aii!' Alex said within and gave a sigh of relief.

He then continued by saying inwardly 'Perhaps I should just keep running at this pace before suddenly accelerating to compel them to follow me to either a valley or a forest where I plan to annihilate them. And maybe I would be able to attract more of my enemies who might be present at the far distance in the direction that I am currently running to at the moment.'

Once he thought this, he continued to run, while the Sky Lord-stage cultivators who had taken into the air to go after him, flew at leisure paces. They weren't bothered at the 'speed' that Alex was moving at.

Then seeing how Alex was showing signs of struggling to escape from them, they began to laugh mockingly at him. 

'What can this fool really do to escape from us? He is just wasting the energy that he will use to journey on the vast Nether River into the Deathverse. Haha!'

Then since Alex's enemies were flying side by side, they began to communicate with each other.

"So, you bastards. Are you here to only kill him to feel fulfilled, or to kill him and take away his possessions along with you?" One unexpectedly asked a group of masked people that were flying by his side. 

"Haha! What sort of dumb question is that? If you kill a cultivator, you would leave the spatial ring behind for others to take it? You are dumb, bro. Get out of my sight!" One of the cultivators in this group grinned loudly and then harshly said.

While the person replied to, had his eyes glow with intense anger.

He then said within himself 'You will know who is dumb between the two of us very soon. You just wait and see.'

Then he moved away from the side of that cultivator that spoke harshly to him.

***

As Alex ran, many people in the street began to wonder why large numbers of Sky Lord-stage cultivators were going after him. Then they thought perhaps he had something really bad to them since so many Sky Lord-stage cultivators were chasing after him.

"What do you think that young chap has done to those cultivators?" One asked someone beside him.

"I can't really say. Is it possible for him to steal from Sky Lord-stage cultivators while being an Earth Adept-stage cultivator? I doubt it. Perhaps there is something deeper going on than we can think." The person spoken to answered, while the other nodded his head.

"Well, I guess we can both easily predict what's gonna happen to the boy. He is going be slaughtered like a fowl by these guys that seem to radiate an aura of heartlessness from their bodies. But such a tremendous pity. His terrific handsomeness would really go to waste. You know, he could have hundreds to thousands of beautiful and divinely-shaped girls flock by his side. But he chose to do something bad and cause his premature death. Aii" The cultivator said and sighed sadly.

After a pretty long time of running, like thirty-five minutes later, Alex suddenly came to a halt and then swerved to look up at the swarm of Sky Lord-stage cultivators that were relaxedly chasing after him.

Seeing that Alex had stopped running, one suddenly said with a booming voice "Brat, don't tell me that you are tired already? Continue running. Don't end the fun we are having with you just yet."

Alex only smiled.

Then as a response to what that cultivator mentioned, he said "Well, now that I think you have all appeared, it's time for me to chase after you guys for your puny souls. It's time for me to have my fun."

Once Alex said this, everyone's eyes widened with great astonishment in their eyes. 

The enemy cultivators in the air, then the rogue cultivators and ordinary people from the street of this city, couldn't help but have their eyes open wide with shock because of what Alex spouted from his mouth without any form of fear in his tone.

It was like he wasn't intimidated and terrified by the large number of Sky Lord-stage cultivators that filled the air and pervaded the atmosphere in this place with their vicious auras.

"Doesn't he know that just a single attack from any of the Sky Lord-stage cultivators hovering in the air would reduce him into mist of blood? Well, I guess it was his arrogance in the first place that caused the Sky Lord-stage cultivators to gather in this shocking number and come for his fearless and arrogant butt" A mortal spat out while the others around him nodded their heads.

"You want to have your fun with us? Haha!" 

"Well, that's great. But, how do you intend to have this fun?" One asked with intensifying coldness in his voice.

"Well, why don't you follow me into the forest to see how I plan to have fun with you guys." Alex said.

"Hmm. Why the forest? Why not here?" Another Sky Lord-stage cultivator asked.

"Because I don't want innocent people's life and property to get destroyed once we start our showdown." Alex boldly said.

Sensing the boldness and fearlessness in his tone which caused them to be greatly amazed, one said "I have a feeling that you think your powerful uncle can rush over here to protect you. But you are wrong. We are too far away from your city for your uncle to rush over to save you."

Haha!

It was Alex's turn to grin raucously.

He then said after he ended his heavy chuckle "Nah. My uncle doesn't have to rush down here to come save my ass from your butchering eyes and hands. I myself is enough to do the saving."

He then said further with a cold glint in his eyes "Let's take what is about to start into the forest or the valley and fight like real men"

When Alex said this, everyone listening to what he was saying became more surprised. Especially the Sky Lord-stage cultivators that levitated in the air. They began to wonder why Alex's confidence suddenly rose from the grave and shot to the sky. It was something that they couldn't really comprehend.

'Is he hiding a powerful weapon from us which is why he wants us to go into a forest or a valley so that he could use it in there without worry? He doesn't want to utilize it here and cause the death of many innocent people.'

'Hmm. But I seriously doubt that. If he tries to use a powerful treasure-weapon that might totally destroy us, he would be the first to explode into a cloud of blood since he wouldn't be able to withstand or resist the fierce and overbearing aura of power that such kind of powerful weapons would unleash upon their operation.' One said inwardly as he gazed at Alex that had eyes glowing with a seemingly unbreakable resolve and unshatterable determination.

He then continued with that train of thought 'But, what does he really plan to do? Where does his damned confidence come from? Well, I guess that we can only follow you to any forest or valley of your choice to see for ourself what gives you such mighty confidence to speak back fearlessly at us, Sky Lord-stage cultivators'

It was the same thing that he thought about that others also thought too.

"So, you really think you can fight us like real men? Haha! Well, I want to know what's real about you apart from your massive accumulations of sapphirestones which is supplied to you almost every day by your extremely rich uncle" A cultivator said, unknowingly exposing Alex's financial status to the public.

Immediately the cultivator mentioned this, causing the ones floating in the air to vexedly face-palm themselves, some people below, cultivators to be precise, who had come to this street from other places in the city to get one thing or the other, suddenly had their eyes glow with intense greed upon hearing what that cultivator said about Alex's accumulated wealth in sapphirestones.

Then they began to look at Alex who only shook his head with a wry smile in his face.

"Ugh! This fool has exposed me. Anyways, it's good. I have more people to kill and take their possessions for myself. And if there are higher-level cultivators that would be joining them to kill me and greedily take my entire possessions, that would be very smooth and nice. I want to have an enjoyable battle to the death, not one that I will easily come out victorious in. Haha!" He said within himself and ended his statement with a light grin.

Then all of a sudden, the treasure-wings still attached to his back rapidly expanded out. Then Alex shot with them into the sky and then far away from the Sky Lord-stage cultivators to look for a forest or valley where their bloody battle would take place...
