Chapter 311 Overwhelming advantage
“Mr. Johnson… please let him go.”
Brian felt helpless and couldn’t believe that a person who was fine just a moment ago could suddenly change like this.
Especially since his father Daniel Bell had repeatedly instructed him not to offend William, Brian could guess that William must be a Soulmancer.
Brian didn’t know that Alice had also become a Soulmancer, so in his view, Jordan’s sudden transformation had to be William’s doing.
William looked at Brian and asked, “Is he very important to you?”
Hesitating for a moment, Brian gestured to the side and said, “Please come over here; let’s talk.”
William instructed Alice to take Amy and then followed Brian to a quieter area.
At this point, Brian had a clear understanding – it was indeed William’s doing. It seemed that William’s power was superior to Jordan’s, which explained why his father valued him so much.
“Mr. Johnson, I know Jordan has offended you, but he is my guest right now…” Brian hesitated, carefully choosing his words, “I don’t know what the Adams family means to you, but I can’t afford to provoke them. If something happens to Jordan while he’s with me, the Adams family will certainly hold me responsible.”
Daniel Bell had previously served William, and compared to James Taylor’s betrayal, Daniel had shown considerable respect for William. William didn’t want to cause any unwarranted trouble for his descendants.
Sometimes he wonders if he’s too low-key, as there always seem to be some boring people coming to trouble him.
He glanced over at Jordan, who immediately regained his senses but was still lying on the ground, tongue out, with a pool of saliva beside him.
“Ah?!” When his eyes cleared, Jordan was completely disoriented.
What had he done?
How did this happen?
He clearly hypnotized William, so how did he end up being hypnotized?
Although he was under hypnosis, he hadn’t forgotten what he had just done. His pants were wet, and the looks from the people in the store…
“Ah! I’ll remember you! I’ll get my revenge for today! Our Adams family will come after you!” Jordan pointed at Alice, seething with rage. In his eyes, it must have been this woman’s doing!
How could William, a mere ordinary person, possibly counter-hypnotize him?
Alice looked at him, equally bewildered.
Why was it her again?
Last time, she had taken responsibility for William’s actions, and now trouble had fallen from the sky once more!
However, Alice’s gaze fell on William.
The old trickster! He said his superpowers were gone, but was this how someone without powers acted?
As Jordan raged, he suddenly realized that all his powers were gone!
No longer a Soulmancer, he couldn’t feel any energy flowing within his body.
This…
Jordan stared at Alice as if they were sworn enemies.
Alice decided to accept the blame,realizing there’s no difference between taking on one responsibility or two.. She glared back fiercely at Jordan, as if to say, “Keep looking, and I’ll ruin you completely.”
Startled and terrified, Jordan hurriedly fled. Where was his earlier arrogance now?
Brian thanked William and then quickly followed Jordan.
After this incident, Bella’s curiosity about William only grew.
The sudden explosion of the stone pillar at the store’s entrance, Jordan’s dog-like behavior, and her father’s recent words.
Asking William to spare Jordan?
That meant William was not only a Soulmancer but a very powerful one at that.
After Jordan escaped, he immediately called his family, breaking down in tears during the call: “Dad! You must avenge me! Someone has destroyed my superpowers!”
The Adams family might not be much in the entire Soulmancer world, but within the Soulmancer families of Texas, they boast a heritage of over 1,500 years and have an patriarch who is a “Quasi-Deity,” now aged 800 years. 𝑖𝘦𝑎.𝗇t
“What exactly happened?” Jordan’s father, also at the pinnacle of mid-level Soulmancer strength, cursed upon hearing that his son had been stripped of his superpowers. “I always told you to keep a low profile. Don’t think you’re invincible. There are powerful people everywhere in this world. If you provoke a master from a major Soulmancer organization, you won’t even know how you died.”
“She must be a mid-level Soulmancer…” Jordan, trembling, gritted his teeth and said, “If you won’t avenge me, then let me die in New York! I’m just a powerless waste now anyway.”
Jordan’s father took a deep breath, softening his tone slightly, “Do you know which Soulmancer organization she belongs to?”
“I don’t know!” Jordan said through clenched teeth. “But she destroyed my superpowers, and I must seek justice for this, no matter where I go. So what if she’s from a major Soulmancer organization? Does that mean we just let this go?”
“Son, don’t worry. I will speak to our patriarch about this. People from our Adams family aren’t easily bullied! For now, you come home. I’ve heard that Wesley Johnson was killed in New York, and the patriarch from the Johnson family is probably heading to New York. We need to find out more about who hurt you before making any plans.”
Jordan’s father, not blinded by hatred, understood the complexity of the current situation in New York City. Without knowing the background of the other party, even he dared not act rashly.
After Brian chased after Jordan and waited for him to finish his call, he asked, “Jordan, are you alright?”
Jordan, clenching his fists and overwhelmed with humiliation and anger, snapped back, “Are you blind? Can’t you see I need clothes? I’ll wait for you in the restroom!”
Brian’s face turned ashen. As the current head of the Bell family, when had he ever been spoken to like this?
But since the Adams family is a Soulmancer lineage, he didn’t want to offend them, so he could only silently watch as Jordan headed towards the restroom.
No matter how you put it, the status difference between ordinary people and Soulmancers was stark.
Staring at Jordan’s retreating back, Brian was more resolved than ever,in the current situation, it was essential to ally with a powerful and reliable Soulmancer.
Otherwise, no matter how wealthy, one would always be at the mercy of others.
William!! .
If the Adams family comes after him and he survives without issue, then he’s the one.
Once back, he would have to ask his father about William’s background, no matter what.
Seeing Alice take the blame for him again, William couldn’t help but laugh.
He finally realized the benefits of having this disciple. Perhaps it’s better to let her shoulder these burdens from now on, establishing some enemies for her, adding motivation to her routine strength enhancement.
With Alice’s current understanding of sword techniques and secrets, unless she’s facing an overwhelming advantage from a Soulmancer of mid-level or higher, she should at least be able to fight to a draw.
If there really is a “Quasi-Deity”or “Lesser Deity” level being who targets Alice because of these issues, then William might also have to display his truly overwhelming advantage.
