Chapter 1041 Stop It, Old Man!



"Nothing is wrong about that," William tried to resist the urge to laugh again, and yet he failed this time.

"Stop it!" Sloth was pretty annoyed, especially when William kept looking at him from time to time, smirking and even laughing at some times when they boarded that ship.

ραndαsΝοvεl ƈοm The moment the ship moved, Sloth started to grow weak. He leant over the edge of the ship, and held it with both hands while trying to not throw himself off to the ocean.

"Come on! It's not that bad, don't tell me you can't swim, hahaha!" Such a sight of Sloth made William itchy to get out a recording crystal and save this moment for later, forever. Yet he couldn't tell what Sloth would do later when they'd leave the ship.

So he refrained from doing so. And in the end, he controlled and behaved himself, especially when they got closer to the land.

When they took the journey, they knew a bridge was impossible to build here. In the middle of the path between the closest points of the two sides, there were lots of huge whirlpools that would turn anything over it into shreds. Not to mention there were thunderstorms appearing out of nowhere, hitting that area ferociously before suddenly disappearing.

As they had to take a long detour, they took roughly one day to cross the ocean and reach the mainland. When they arrived there, and the moment Sloth's feet touched the ground, he turned to William in an evil way.

"Old man, if you dare to touch me..."

"What will you do? Huh? Ungrateful brat! I followed you all this way to help you in this adventure, and in the end, this is your thanks and gratitude to me? Screw you! I won't let you live in peace for days!"

The moment he said that he started to chase after William. Trying to run away from a dark gold master, one at the pinnacle was something impossible even for William. But thanks to his dash technique and his ability to change trajectory every two metres now, he was able to evade all of the incoming slaps of Sloth.

"I swear if you don't stop right now, I will complain to the king! No, I'll complain to Anjie! Stop this madness!" he could compete against Sloth in response and swift reactions, but he couldn't compare with him in terms of spirit power.

If he kept this going on for long enough, he'd either be forced to use elixirs, a big loss for him, or to let Sloth slap him as he wished.

"Telling them? Hmph! Tell the whole world if you want, I won't let you off the hook, troublemaker!"

"Stop it! I have a recording of you back there, do you want me to spread it over the entire world or what?!!" As things reached this far, William had to come up with an idea to stop Sloth from doing what he intended.

If not, then he'd end up suffering a lot! And when he shouted like this, Sloth did indeed stop.

"Give it to me!"

"No way! Do you take me for a fool?" William would never give it to him, as he didn't have it in the first place.

"Fine! Then I'll slap you and beat you to a pulp before taking everything you have... Come here, why are you turning to your spirit form? Do you want to fight? For real?!"

William had no other choice but to lean to that. He knew if he didn't fight and kill, then his spirit power would get depleted in five hours! But to make sure he'd go away from the crazy Sloth, he had to do it.

Just as he transformed, Sloth also transformed. His spirit body was a big black ape, one that had two tails with snake heads, a red fur, two golden horns, and a very deadly triple set of razor-like claws.

The next few hours were quite weird to many masters in the area. They saw two masters running, activating their spirit bodies, with one seemingly shouting for help and the other cursing and threatening him.

If these masters knew this was William, the same legendary master whose name was reverberating all over the world right now, they would be tempted to record what was going on and spread it over for wealth.

"Stop it, old man! I'm not as strong as you!" William felt that his spirit power was approaching rock bottom, and so he had to try again to dissuade Sloth from this. But the latter didn't respond, acting as if he didn't hear him.

"What if I promised you anything? Anything you want?" William tried to tempt Sloth to not slap him, but his attempt failed.

"A promise from a sleek like you? No way! You won't hold your word or keep your promise! Come here, I will slap you ten times, the same number of times you laughed on that ship!"

In the end, William decided to accept the punishment, blaming his luck for not recording that old man before. Sloth already saw through the little lie of his, and didn't stop until he slapped William for ten times in a row!

In the end, William got out with swollen red cheeks, and a deformed face that made Sloth laugh at him for hours!

"I won't let you off the hook this easily," William returned the words Sloth said before to him, "I will tell Anjie, masters from your capital, and even the king about how you abused a teenager like me!"

"Hahahaha, suck it, kid, you won't do anything bad to this old man's name or reputation, hahahaha!"

"We'll see," William knew Sloth was right, he couldn't do anything to him at all, "When I grow strong enough, I'll generously repay this kindness many folds back!"

"Waiting for you here," Sloth even yawned, "but hurry up, like this, you'll reach my level in fifty up to a hundred years."
