Chapter 1201 Traumatized Old Man



Somewhere in the City. 

The Old man from before was sitting beside two others.

"I'm telling you, this kid is definitely loaded. But, he's very powerful, I can't deal with him alone." He said to the other two. 

"How will we track him down?" One of the duo present asked. 

"You don't have to worry about it. I can track him down, the moment you're ready, we can go after him." The Old man answered. 

"You said he was able to escape from you the last time?" The other man asked. 

"He's a Space Elementalist, you know how difficult they are to keep around, especially when they're stronger." The Old man replied. Seeing their skeptical expression, he said, "I can assure you, with you two, he stands no chance."

The duo were a combination of two middle-aged men. 

"Alright, we accept. But we're taking seventy percent, you take the rest." One of them replied. 

The Old man thought about it for a while and said, "That's fine by me." 

The Old man spoke with them for a while, telling them of Grey's abilities before leaving. 

Outside the building. 

The eyes of the Old man showed pure hatred, "I'll kill that little brat." 

He didn't come to these people because he wanted to take Grey's belongings, rather, he came here all for revenge. The fact that Grey not only almost killed him, but also taking his things was one that didn't sit right with him. 

The duo he came to ask help from where around the same level as himself. When fighting with Grey, he felt if there was another person in his cultivation stage, he was confident that they would be able to defeat him. With the duo, he was more confident that they would be able to kill him. 

Grey humiliated him, he would not stand for it. 

….

While the Old man was thinking of how to get revenge on Grey, Grey and his group were going through the City. 

Given their normal ways, they started moving from one restaurant to another in hopes of getting good food. Grey had enough chaos stones to pay for their expenses. 

The City was very active even at night, and the group strolled through the entire City overnight. 

….

The next morning. 

The group left the City before daybreak. Their target left the City during the night, so they had to follow him. 

….

In the cave the Old man stopped by, the Old man and the duo who wanted to help him were currently seated, looking at a symbol on the earthen table in front of them. 

"Is this accurate? Why is he coming towards us?" One of the duo asked. 

"I've used this for over a hundred years, of course it's accurate." The Old man replied. 

He couldn't help but look at the thing, stunned that Grey was coming towards him. What made him even more frightened is the fact that Grey was coming from the direction of the City he left. If this was what he thought about, then Grey was tracking him. 

'Why is he tracking me? Does he want to take more things from me?' 

The Old man didn't think about it too much, he wasn't afraid, with the company by his side, he was sure they would be able to defeat Grey, no matter the tricks Grey uses. 

"We should wait, I'm sure he's coming here." The one with a cold face among the duo said. 

The Old man nodded, that was what he had in mind as well. Moving from here was of no use, so he decided to stay in the same spot. 

After some time, Grey's figure appeared in the area. I think you should take a look at

"Oh, a welcoming party." Grey chuckled as he walked over. 

The three men stood up and faced Grey who had two cute animals with him and a small girl. They didn't think Grey would come with such a lineup. The girl surprised the duo, but they were not too bothered about her. As long as they could get what they wanted from Grey, they were satisfied. The two small animals didn't even come to mind since they didn't sense anything from them, they were almost nonexistent. 

The duo looked at him and one said, "Kid, drop your storage ring and leave." 

"Alright." With a pleasant smile, he tossed a ring at the duo. 

The Old man subconsciously retreated, not even daring to touch it. He knew what he experienced the last time Grey did something like this, and he didn't want to fall for it twice. 

"Don't open it." He yelled after giving them some space. 

The duo, seeing his reaction quickly understood there was another thing about this and quickly moved aside, dodging the ring. 

"Haha, are you afraid of a common ring?" Grey grinned, amused by the way they reacted to the ring. 

He knew the Old man would be apprehensive towards it, but he never thought they would be this afraid of it. Thinking of it, he didn't expect much from the Old man, this trick almost killed him the last time, and it was only a day ago, only a fool wouldn't be scared if faced with such a situation again. 

Grey beckoned and the ring floated back to him, he picked it and a core appeared on his hand. The core exuded a pleasing aura, and the moment the duo saw it, they took a step forward, they knew what that was, and how precious it was. 

The core of a Snow Armadillo was very precious in their world. The Snow Armadillo is the best light elemental beast in this place and its healing capabilities were second to none. If one who is close to death consumes this, they would go back to normal. 

Grey played with it and kept it again, "Are you sure you don't want the ring?" 

The duo looked at each other, "Why would you hand it to us without any struggle?"

"I don't like fighting. I thought he was the only one here, hence I came." Grey pointed at the Old man while speaking, after a while he added, "With you two with him, I stand little to no chance against you three. Why stress myself and fight?" 

The duo thought about it and nodded, they felt Grey's reasoning was accurate. 

"Alright, give us the ring." 

Grey smiled and tossed the ring to them, again. 

The Old man looked at Grey, he could barely believe that Grey gave them his possession that easily. After encountering Grey, he didn't think the possibility of him being this reasonable was high. He believed Grey was only trying to trick them, unfortunately, there was no way for him to find out. 

"Don't believe him, he's very cunning." He warned the duo. 

The duo looked at the Old man and nodded, they've worked with him before, and hearing him warn them meant that he was very apprehensive of Grey. 

They started to doubt his words. When he came to them, he told them that he almost killed Grey, although with the help of someone, but Grey managed to escape. However, since Grey appeared, the only thing they could see in his eyes was fear. 

Grey must have traumatized him, making him fear him this much. 

One of them grabbed the ring, and brought out a pearly multicolored bead. While studying the bead, he felt a chill run down his spine and hastily threw it and the ring in another direction, shockingly, he picked the side the Old man was running in. 

Boom! 

The bead and the ring exploded out with a powerful attack. Along with the explosion was the shrill scream of the Old man. He was clearly in pain after being covered by parts of the explosion. 

Grey chuckled when he saw this. Originally, the ring was not supposed to get to the Old man, but he used the space element to make it move further at a faster pace. Before the Old man could escape, he was caught in the explosion. 

"You little brat." One of the duo said coldly. 

The way everything happened was by no means a coincidence, it was obviously all Grey's plans. The second the man who held the ring brought out the bead, sensed the danger and tried to throw it away, Grey opened a small spatial tunnel close to him and the ring entered. The ring appeared close to the Old man who was already on the run. 

"You want to set us against each other? You're still too young to trick us." One of the duo said. 

Grey shrugged, looking at the place where the explosion took place. He wanted to see if the Old man would be injured or not. 

The explosion died down and the Old man appeared before everyone. The sorry state of the Old man made the duo shake their heads. 

They couldn't believe his state. Grey's attack was more than what they expected. Although they sensed the aura, but they felt it was not that strong.
