NOVEL NEXT Chapter 75
Chapter 75: Price
At this moment, James and Tom had gotten so frightened by Cole’s power that their legs trembled.
Although they were standing behind Melvin, they were still facing Cole.
Cole’s figure was like an arrow as he rushed forward. His clenched fist charged at them like a cannonball. The scene was shocking.
James and Tom were shocked.
Melvin became even more solemn.
This punch was not easy to receive.
Bang!
Two fists met.
When Melvin’s and Cole’s fists collided, it was as if Mars had collided with Earth. The dull sound that reverberated in the air like it was about to explode made the other three men feel like their ears were going deaf.
“Not bad.”
Cole smiled.
This guy is quite strong.
“You’re quite strong, but you’re too arrogant.”
Seeing that Cole was remained arrogant, Melvin growled.
Then, he suddenly bent his knees and charged straight at Cole’s abdomen.
He was going to shatter Cole’s energy core.
However, how could Cole let himself get injured so easily?
Cole nimbly dodged and twisted his waist to swing his arm, throwing a punch at Melvin’s face.
The punch was fierce.
Melvin suddenly retreated, his fingers forming claws as he tried to grab Cole’s fist.
Cole smiled faintly. “Good idea.”
“What?”
Melvin was stunned.
He suddenly felt a shadow of death envelop him for no reason.
Melvin’s expression changed, and he hurriedly turned around.
But it was too late…
Cole had already used his second knife.
Swish!
An air-piercing sound rang out.
The fruit knife missed its aim due to Melvin’s full efforts.
But it still stabbed his left hand.
Blood instantly flowed out.
Cole felt a little regretful when he saw this.
“Ah!”
Melvin growled as an unbearable pain enveloped his body. He glared at Cole and said, “You’re despicable. You used hidden weapons in a head-on confrontation?”
“I used a hidden weapon the moment I came up. You’re the stupid one.”
Cole shook his head.
Then, he rushed forward and kicked Melvin’s energy core before the latter could condense his true energy.
Bang!
After the explosion, Melvin spat out a mouthful of acid. His entire body was numb.
This kick had scattered his true energy and prevented him from condensing it.
“Isn’t the Yeagers family being too arrogant by letting you come alone?”
Cole smiled and walked to Melvin.
At this moment, Melvin and the other three were terrified.
They never dreamed that Cole would be so powerful.
Melvin never expected that he, a fourth-grade martial artist, would fall to the ground in just three to four rounds at the hands of Cole, a second-grade martial artist.
James trembled and broke out in cold sweat.
He had personally seen how powerful Melvin was.
Now, Melvin was lying on the ground like a dead dog, trembling.
“Since you planned to shatter my energy core, I won’t take your life. I’ll shatter your energy core as a warning to others. I’ll let the people who come after me see the consequences.”
Cole walked to Melvin’s side and smiled.
The cruelty he was about to perform today was to reduce the trouble in the future.
If the people from the six families kept finding trouble with him, he would not be able to live well.
So Cole decided to let them see how cruel his methods were.
This way, if the six families wanted to deal with him, they would have to consider whether they could withstand his revenge.
Cole’s smile was like the smile of a demon in Melvin’s eyes.
Cole slowly raised his foot.
“No, don’t!”
Melvin’s soul dissipated as he roared in despair, “I’m from the Yeagers family. If you cripple me, the Yeagers will definitely not let you off… Please show mercy, Mr. Stone!”
In the end, Melvin started to beg for mercy.
If his energy core was shattered, he would lose everything.
No one would want a useless martial artist.
But it was too late.
Bang!
Cole stomped on Melvin’s energy core.
Melvin’s true energy dissipated, and he lost his cultivation.
The martial artist fainted and slowly bled from his seven orifices.
Seeing this scene, the wailing bodyguard in black, James, and Tom were all stunned.
Their hands trembled, and they did not dare to move.
It was not that they did not want to run, but that their limbs were numb from fear.
Cole’s ruthless methods shocked them.
He had crippled someone from the Yeagers family?
In fact, they did not know what had happened between Cole and the Yeagers family.
If they knew that Cole had killed Charles Yeager the previous day, they would not be so surprised now.
“It’s your turn.”
Cole tilted his head and looked at James and Tom.
The bodyguard in black had not gotten up yet. Cole was not in the mood to find trouble with him.
He was more interested in James and Tom.
“Wh-what?”
Tom was stunned.
James’s legs went completely limp.
“I didn’t expect you guys to not run. Not bad! I’ll give you guys a thumbs up.”
Cole approached them with a smile.
However, under the night sky, his smile looked more like a devil’s smile in James’s eyes.
“You, don’t come over.”
James retreated repeatedly. He did not even notice a rock under his feet and tripped over it.
The ground of the alley was covered in water all year round.
As James fell, his butt was immediately covered in mud.
“Didn’t you ask me to come downstairs? Why are you chickening out now?” Cole asked.
As he spoke, he even kicked someone.
Just as he regained his senses, Tom, who wanted to escape, got kicked to the ground beside James.
“How could you abandon Mr. Lewis?”
Cole shook his head. “Not loyal.”
Tom fell on his face. His mouth was covered in mud, but he couldn’t care about it. Crying, he turned around to kneel in front of Cole. “Mr. Stone, can you let me off? I was possessed for a moment. James forced me to come over.”
“Tom, you f*cking traitor.”
James trembled, but it did not stop him from criticizing Tom.
However, Tom, who was kneeling and begging for mercy, ignored James.
When he saw Melvin bleeding from his seven orifices from being stomped on, Tom immediately broke down.
He did not want to be treated so cruelly by Cole!
“I see.”
Cole pretended to be enlightened. “Alright, since you were forced to come here, I’ll let you off.”
Tom was stunned.
Is he really going to let me off?
But before Tom could thank him, Cole stepped on his right hand…
Crack!
The bones in Tom’s hand were broken.
“Ahhhhhh.”
Caught off guard, Tom screamed.
He did not even have time to resist.
Seeing this scene, James and the bodyguard in black, who were the only ones still rational, were terrified.
Cole was too cruel.
He was not mentally prepared at all and directly crushed the other party’s hand bones?
Ruthless!
“Alright, I said I’ll let you off. I was going to cripple your limbs, but now, I’ll cripple one of your legs and one of your hands.”
Cole muttered to himself.
James was stunned.
What?
Isn’t it enough to crush one of his hands?
Tom’s expression changed drastically. He was in so much pain that his forehead was covered in sweat. Before he could beg for mercy…
The next second.
Cole stomped on his foot.
As he stomped, he was expressionless.
These people wanted to kill him, so they had to pay the price.
Crack!
Tom twitched and fainted before he could even scream in pain.
