Chapter 2199 A Simple Resolution

Because the large privacy barrier was never supposed to defend or keep within its strong aura and attacks, both Alex and the demonic cultivator understood that one could not just attack within it and remain hidden.

That was why the man only attacked physically. That was also why Alex wasn't so concerned. The man wasn't just going to reveal himself to the crowd now by making a massive explosion. There were other reasons why Alex wasn't as concerned, but that was one of the main reasons why he was certain he wouldn't die in this clash.

The man pulled his spear out from Alex's skull and let him drop to the floor. Despite his cultivation base, he knew he couldn't thoroughly kill Alex in the middle of the city while remaining hidden.

Very soon, Alex's soul would come out from the body and— "Oh, you're letting me go?" Alex asked the man.

The man had been about to walk out of the barrier when he paused and looked toward Alex once again. His spiritual sense went through Alex faster than his eyes could follow, and by the time he saw him standing there, the man could already not believe his own senses.

Alex's forehead was clean with not a single hint of wound to it. His stomach, which he had stabbed through earlier, was the same as well. He wasn't going mad or anything. He could still see the hole in the robes where he had stabbed. And yet...

"What is happening?" he asked. "I... I stabbed you."

"You did," Alex said. "But if you want to kill me, you're going to have to do more than just that."

The man held his spear tighter. "Did you eat a pill?" he asked. "You must've eaten a pill."

"Perhaps," Alex said.

"Then let me properly kill you this time," the man said. But before he could, the barrier disappeared and Grimsight stepped in. His arrival was swift and as soon as he was in there, he could already tell the situation.

"Blood technique gone wrong?" he asked.

"Seems like it," Alex said. "He cultivates with other people's blood by most likely consuming it directly. That is a demonic cultivator, right?"

"Through and through," Grimsight said. "Good job contacting me before you were attacked. He is stronger than you." n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

"Good job," Silvermist said, walking up to the two of them. "I have to say though, I'm disappointed you didn't think of calling me first. You called brother Grimsight."

"My apologies, master. I just didn't know if you would be busy," Alex said. "Senior Grimsight felt the smarter choice here."

"Of course, of course," Silvermist said. "Great work nonetheless. Finding a demonic cultivator is not that easy."

"He was bad at hiding it," Alex said. "I wouldn't have realized he was one if he hadn't begun choking me out of nowhere."

Alex couldn't help but find the entire situation funny. He would have let the man be had he not attacked him. He might have only later realized that he was a Demonic cultivator.

"Do you still want to continue this?" Silvermist asked.

"This? You mean the festival, master?" Alex asked. "If so, then of course. I don't want to leave just yet."

Silvermist smiled. "Alright then. Get back to work."

Alex returned to the festival, going back to helping people. A few more people came to ask him for help, and he helped them. Days passed by one after another, and soon the festival came to an end as well.

There were not many people remaining in there by the end of it.

Alex reviewed all the people he had helped during the month and couldn't help but feel good about himself for it. He didn't know when it would be next when he would get to help others the same way.

Still, he didn't think he was as good as the Alchemy God when it came to healing people. The first Alchemy God did something like this every month to help the ones who couldn't afford help otherwise. He had done it out of his own selflessness.

Meanwhile, Alex had done so because it was a festival, and because he wanted to be a little like the Alchemy God. Their motivations were entirely different.

Still, Alex felt good about helping others, so that was the end of it.

And now that had ended, it was time for him to return back to the Trueflame continent once again and train for a long while. He wasn't sure when it would be that he would next go on a tour around the world again, but he was certain it wouldn't be as great as this one.
