Before long, the area in front of what used to be a chamber designated for me and me alone, what looked like a half of the entire goose sect gathered up. Only when I looked closer at some of the faces or rather figures of the newly arriving cultivators did I realise that I already saw most of them somewhere in the past!After racking through my memory for a bit, I realised that most of the female cultivators that arrived here were present back when I was coaxed into joining Monica"s tutelage. On the other hand, outside of a few selected faces, I could recognise from the back when I took part in trials, everyone was as foreign as french cuisine critic to me.
"What happened!"
After a moment during which this entire group entered a contest of stares with me as if someone was filming a scene of a standoff between me playing the quality and this ma.s.s of people acting as quant.i.ty.
"Nothing much. I just couldn"t control my strength properly after finis.h.i.+ng my cultivation. I managed to get a grasp on it now, so you can all go back to your meaningless tasks."
Rather than playing it nice and kind, with what my position was right now in the eyes of Monica, I could very well act as c.o.c.ky as I wanted. If anything were to happen to me, even if some of those cultivators would get their mental revenge by making me incapable of taking part in the intersect challenge, their happiness would swiftly turn into horror as I already understood Monica"s character well enough to know that before the entire Goose sect would fall due to losing their valuable ally, she would be sure to make the lives of those responsible for this fact as miserable as possible!
"No, they are not going anywhere."
Rather than letting me resolve the situation without any needless bloodshed amongst the cultivator of this poor sect, I recognised one of the faces as it came out of the crowd and stood at its very front. To my surprise, it was Gevva! The same la.s.s that glued herself to me back when we listened to Monica"s lecture and the same that made me wonder whether her entire behaviour wasn"t just an act she was putting to hide the fact that she was the ringleader behind the last attack on my person!
"Didn"t our teacher already punish you for messing with me? Do you really want me to get serious with you in order to make sure you won"t bother me any time soon?"
Rather than trying to understand what this b.i.t.c.h had on mind while uttering her words, I simply disregarded the option of any of her scheming having any chance to work on me, now that two of my core statistics reached their new limit.
Even if I restricted how efficient my body could be, there was a limit to how strongly I could pull my own punches. Outside of that, resistance and vitality remained the two statistics that I never bothered to limit at all, as not only that would mean upsetting the natural balance of my body at its very core, I had no idea how to even do it in the first place!
"Oh, are you threatening me? Or what, you are going to use your black, forbidden arts to make everyone here submit to you like dogs, just like you did last time with us? Considering how you had to hide under the Teacher"s protection after doing so, it"s obvious how taxing it was on you! I bet you can"t do it with all of us together!"
Hearing how keen this la.s.s was to exact her revenge on me for some imagined faults I committed, I lost all the remaining hope in my heart that this situation could be resolved peacefully. Yet with all of my statistics now unlocked to their full current potential outside of the strength limited to its previous limit, I could easily charm everyone here without even batting an eye, yet doing so would not serve the purpose I had right now in my mind.
"Oh, so that"s what you think? If you are so sure you can go against me with those pitiful numbers, how about telling me what you want to do with me? How do you plan to take revenge for the fact that when you guys dared to attack me seven against one in a sneak surprise, you still ended up beaten up like the wh.o.r.es you are and then forced to lick the dust from my shoes to make up for your sins? What do you hope you will be capable of doing after your useless p.a.w.ns would somehow manage to supposedly defeat me right after my breakthrough?"
While my words stated several times that right now, I was even stronger than I was before, I infused them with enough insults directed right at her face to make sure she would consider those warnings as nothing but a barking of a dog with no teeth. Seeing how her face turned red in agitation in response to my insults, I already knew that I have won.
Snap!
As Gevva snapped her fingers, a group of four, oiled men dressed in only a simple loincloth came forward, moving to guard her as if they were her personal guards.
"I paid quite a lot to bring those men directly from the Gorilla sect. After my colleagues will make sure you can"t fight back, I will have them rape you and steal all of the essences from your body! In the end, if only you were obedient enough to stay away from the intersect challenge, nothing would happen to you! I was even merciful enough to attempt breaking your limbs to save you from this fate, but seeing how stubborn you are, you are leaving me with no choice."
Shrugging her arms, Gevva shot her hand forward in the obvious order to attack… Yet no one really moved.
Ever since she started her tirade about what she would do to me, I made sure to listen carefully, while calmly charming the entire crowd all at once. By the time she swung her hand forward, everyone but her was under my direct control!
"Boys, I think you heard her. Break all her limbs and steal all her essence. I wish you will have a good time!"
