The ground below their feet started shaking from the Chi energyâs vibration. With
nowhere to disperse the energy, cracks finally appeared on the surface of the ground,
and crackling sounds could be heard.
Holly Yates was very shocked.
Alex Rockefeller actually withstood her punch.
âYou should also try taking a punch from me,â Alex said.
Dragon-Tusk Punch!
Boom!
Alex clenched his fist and threw a punch at Holly.
Holly quickly channeled her Chi energy to receive his punch.
After a loud explosion, Holly stumbled seven steps backward. Finally, she managed to
stand still with a terrible expression on her face. She suddenly threw up a mouthful of
vomit.
When Alexâs Chi energy had rushed into her body, it messed with her internal organs
and caused her to feel nauseous.
Holly was surprised, but Alex was even more so.
He could tell much earlier that Holly was suffering from prior wounds. That was why her
capability was affected. If she wasnât injured beforehand, Alex might not have been able
to win today.
Moreover, Holly was still very young.
What about her family or her master? Wouldnât
they be far stronger than Alex himself?
At this moment, Alex began to feel wary. Back when he received the inheritance of his
ancestors, his capabilities increased significantly. He was able to defeat anyone with
ease.
Now, he finally realized that there were other people who were much stronger
than he was. He couldnât afford to look down on everyone.
If he wasnât careful, he might end up getting into deep trouble. Although he could still
find ways to save himself, what about Brittany Rockefeller and the other ladies?
âYou lost!â Alex exclaimed.
âYou won,â Holly said while she wiped her mouth with a depressed look on her face.
Favonius Bart and the one-eyed man finally came back to their senses. Holly, who had
never lost in a fight, actually lost to Alex.
Who was this fellow?
Wasnât he the son of this factoryâs owner?
D*mn. If he was this powerful, why did he
even bother running a run-down factory?
âHey, you. What are you looking at? Get back to work!â Alex yelled.
The group of people shuddered. They had no choice but to obey the stronger personâs
command.
Alex turned to look at Holly.
âYou have existing wounds,â he said.
âHow did you know?â Holly looked up and asked in surprise.
âYour energy core was harmed. Your chakra veins are misaligned.â
âYou⦠You were able to tell.â
Holly seemed even more surprised.
âI can even help you recover,â Alex said and placed his hands behind him.
âReally?â Holly jumped up in shock. Her eyes were glistening.
Alex began to consider taking her under his wings. Holly was a female cultivator of a
very young age.
In fact, her body contained a very odd blood energy. Furthermore, she
was still malleable at the tender age of fifteen. She would be of great help to Alex in the
future.
However, Holly quickly shook her head, and her eyes dimmed. âYou canât fix me. Even
the best doctor in the world couldnât fix me,â she said.
âIs that so?â
Alex asked.
Alex walked up to Holly and raised one finger before quickly placing it at the center of
her chest.
His healing Chi energy began to flow into her body.
âWhat are you doing?â Holly became enraged.
However, she soon sensed that something was amiss. Her seemingly failing energy
core suddenly vibrated a little. It felt as if water was flowing into a dry well. Holly had
previously tried many ways to activate her energy core, but nothing worked.
Now, she felt overjoyed.
However, Alex very soon pulled away and smiled. âDo you believe me now?â
Holly immediately nodded. She had a hopeful look in her eyes.
However, Alex suddenly said,. âI can fix it, though itâs going to be a little troublesome.
Howeverâ¦â
âWhatâs the condition?â Holly asked. She understood social etiquette very well.
Alex chuckled to himself. He felt like he was going to kidnap a young girl. âWhat
conditionâ¦â
Before he could finish speaking, Holly hugged herself. âI wonât sell my body,â she cried
out.
