Chapter 786: Pawn Activated (1/2)
”What happened?!” The old man tried to open his mouth to say these words but all he got was the constant echo that rang in his ears. He was buzzed and dizzy at the same time.
The broken nose on him scattered copious blood on the floors but still, this old man opened his eyes to get a better handle on the situation.
The moment he did, he saw a young handsome man in a familiar insignia on his cultivator's robe.
”POP!”
”POP!”
”POP!” The old man took some precious medicinal pills from his storage ring and ate them one after another.
The blood flow from his shattered face mended and he was back again to a better condition in but mere breaths.
”Junior! You dare!” The old man roared in anger.
He did not know what had happened to him but seeing that our bored gamer practically had no cultivation base, this emboldened him enough to act out on his pain and shame.
”BANG!” The old man launched into an offensive and his hands turned into gripping motion which had no doubt wanted to squeeze the neck of our very own protagonist.
Unfortunately for this old man, he got the surprise of a lifetime in the next moment.
”Insolent devil.” Clark muttered and summoned the burning flames at his fingertips.
”BOOM!” The old man felt the temperature rise around him and then it was all too late for him to back out.
His body got slapped by an invisible force that had returned him to whence he came. The old man rolled like a dead ball and the place got destroyed even further.
But different from the last, the sad cultivator was already burning in the aftermath of his deed. The late reaction he had was terrible to the extreme.
”AHHHHHHHHHHHHH!” The old man was in flames. His skin went out in a blaze of glory. Same with his eyes and hair. Still, he lived throughout the ordeal.
It was easy to see that this old man was indeed not simple.
”DING!” Our bored gamer stopped when the old man was only a few seconds away from death. Clark would of course not kill the pawn in his palms.
”Tell me your name, old boy.” Our good gamer asked. He got his answer way later after that.
”HAK!”
”HAK!”
”HAK!”

The old man coughed but he was not stupid to talk first. He got another set of healing pills and was recuperated well enough in time that he could move his tongue and lips again.
”This fool's name is Shen Wu, Senior. Please spare my life.” The old man replied weakly and prostrated on the ground in a total act of subservience.
