Chapter 127: Chapter 127 - Crushing Superiority
With my strength, there really was no need to return to South City.
A Grandmaster could become an honored guest anywhere. Being supported by powerful families, leading overseas organizations, or ruling entire regions were all possible paths.
Marshall Clive looked utterly hopeless. He glanced at me with pleading eyes.
"If you can help me through this crisis, I am willing to give you 20% of the Clive family’s shares!" Marshall gritted his teeth.
I laughed. "Really?"
"Absolutely true!" Marshall replied urgently.
Compared to his life, money meant nothing at all!
I nodded. "Alright, I agree."
Not far away, Scarface couldn’t help but sneer. "You really don’t know how to live, even daring to challenge me when you know I’m a Grandmaster?"
I laughed. "I can’t help it, Mr. Clive offered too much money, and it’s hard to refuse."
"Moreover... I’m quite curious to see the true strength of a Grandmaster," I added indifferently.
"Fine, since that’s the case, don’t blame me for being rude!" Scarface roared, his body suddenly lighting up with streaks of energy!
These lights wrapped around Scarface tightly, displaying skill far beyond what Bernard Colton had shown before!
I snorted coldly, stepping forward and charging straight at Scarface!
"Bang!"
My fist landed solidly on Scarface!
Shockingly, Scarface showed no reaction at all!
"Hahaha!" Scarface laughed uproariously.
"Just with this skill, you dare to boast?" Scarface said coldly.
I lowered my head to look at my fist and muttered softly, "This Grandmaster is really extraordinary... but that’s about it."
To me, so-called Grandmasters were nothing. After all, I had once fought against Roberts Joshua, a great Grandmaster. That punch just now was purely to test the waters.
"You make your move, otherwise I’m afraid you won’t have a chance," I said.
Scarface sneered, "Kid, you’re the most arrogant person I’ve ever met. Although I’ve just been promoted to Grandmaster not long ago, the gap between Grandmaster and Master is like a chasm! You can’t cross it!"
I frowned. "You talk too much."
Scarface suddenly became enraged. "You’re courting death!"
With that, Scarface instantly charged at me!
His fist shone with a burst of white light, as if all his Inner Strength had gathered in one spot!
Facing this punch, everyone’s expressions changed wildly!
Apollo Leah, lying on the ground, even closed his eyes and shifted slightly, afraid of being caught in the crossfire.
But I didn’t dodge or retreat. Instead, I clenched my fist and met the attack head-on!
"Clang!"
The sound of steel colliding echoed, deafening everyone’s ears!
After that punch, Scarface actually stepped back three steps!
As for me, I remained completely unfazed.
"Is that all?" I sneered.
Scarface’s expression slowly turned grave.
He clenched his fist and said coldly, "Such powerful strength, I’m getting more and more interested."
"You are a bit disappointing to me," I shook my head.
Scarface didn’t mind my words and said coldly, "I’ll give you a choice. If you’re willing, I can let you join us and give you a high position. Additionally, you’ll receive a huge amount of money."
As soon as the words fell, everyone’s faces changed wildly once again!
Scarface was actually trying to win me over!
"In addition, we will provide you with various resources, herbs, top-grade Pills, and even peerless cultivation skills," Scarface continued to tempt.
"You should know that these things are all rare treasures."
I nodded slightly and said, "The conditions you offer are indeed very tempting."
Scarface was overjoyed and quickly followed up, "How about it? Joining us is much more promising than staying in South City!"
"Mr. Raymond..." Marshall Clive, who was not far away, suddenly became anxious.
If I agreed, Marshall would undoubtedly die today!
"May I ask, what treasures have you brought with you today?" I asked.
Scarface became even more excited. He laughed heartily and said, "You really are a perceptive person. I have a hundred-year-old medicinal material here. If you are willing to join, I can give it to you as a gift."
"Offering hundred-year medicinal material, it seems that your organization is quite wealthy," I sighed.
Scarface spoke somewhat proudly, "That’s natural. As long as you’re willing to join, this is nothing."
I said nothing, and the atmosphere became somewhat awkward.
Marshall Clive stared intently at me, sweating profusely from anxiety.
"What do you say?" Scarface continued to ask.
I sighed, "The conditions you offer are indeed very attractive, but... unfortunately, I’ve never been interested in overseas organizations and I don’t want to live like a rat in a corner like you, so I refuse."
Hearing this, Marshall immediately breathed a long sigh of relief.
Meanwhile, Scarface was furious!
He looked coldly at me and said, "Boy, don’t be ungrateful! If you refuse me, you’ll offend our entire organization!"
"Do you think I’d be afraid?" I sneered.
This completely enraged Scarface, and he shouted angrily, "Do you think you can beat me? If you don’t appreciate kindness, then don’t blame me for being rude!"
With that, Scarface charged at me once more!
His speed was incredibly fast, but I was even faster!
In the blink of an eye, I had already landed more than a dozen punches on him! And Scarface hadn’t even touched me once!
"You’re really fast," Scarface said with narrowed eyes.
"Unfortunately, you can’t hurt me at all! My body is wrapped in Inner Strength, which can even resist ordinary bullets!"
"You can’t even hurt me, how can you win against me?" Scarface tilted his head back and laughed wildly!
However, his laughter quickly came to an abrupt halt! His face was even more full of horror!
"Who said I can’t hurt you? Do you really think your Inner Strength can keep you alive?" I spoke right by Scarface’s ear.
My fist was firmly planted on Scarface’s chest!
"Crack!"
The Inner Strength enveloping Scarface’s body let out a crisp sound!
The next second, it broke apart like an eggshell with a crackling sound!
"How... how is this possible, how is this possible!" Scarface’s pupils shrank violently, his face full of horror!
I sneered, "Don’t be too full of yourself. Isn’t hiding overseas good enough?"
With that, I threw another punch!
This punch directly shattered Scarface’s chest!
His entire chest caved in, his bones completely crushed!
"Boom!"
Scarface fell to the ground, his face covered in blood.
"How... how is this possible..." Scarface whispered, unable to figure out till his death why my fist had such great power.
