Chapter 3 - Spineless Goons

"Hah! You finally had the courage to get out of your little dark hole! I admit you are somewhat of a man, even though an incomplete one!"

The group from Ren Clan jeered like a bunch of hyenas, feeling all superior.

Wade didn't respond, looking at the group with indifference.

"What? Do you still think you are the heir of Ren Clan?! Your grandfather had already struck you out of the clan records! You are a nobody now!"

Wade's gaze turned cold.

'Did my grandfather really do that? With his personality It is possible.'

Wade's chest tightened. After the death of his grandmother when he was just seven years old, his grandfather had become incredibly cold and merciless. In fact, the amount of people the clan killed in the shadows skyrocketed by a hundred times that year.

'I need to go to the clan after this.'

Meanwhile, the group had surrounded him, cutting off any direction for escape. The streets quickly became crowded as people gathered to watch the show.

"Is it true that the heir of Ren Clan turned out to be a waste?"

"Shh! I still want to live unlike you!"

"What?! Didn't you hear that ugly bastard? He is already stricken out of the records! Nobody supports him anymore!"

"But how can you believe his words? His face looks like a stomped cow shit! I wouldn't believe anything that comes out of that deformed jaw!"

"Are you a fool? Nobody dares to joke about the clan records! We are talking about the Ren Clan here!"

Gong Ren's face became bright red from rage as he barely held himself from slaughtering those mortal peasants.

"Did the truth hurt you, Shitface Gong?"

Wade decided to join in since he also wanted to have some fun!

"You bastard! How dare you insult me when you can't even afford to be a beggar in Sevenford City!"

Gong reached for his waist and pulled out a dagger, pointing right at Wade's throat.

"From this distance, I understand why clan elders thought you were born from an affair with a spirit beast. I bet your father was a little too fond of those animals."

Wade flashed a cocky grin, daring Gong to make the move. Even if he was facing a cultivator, Wade was confident that he could easily kill someone like Gong, who spent his days drinking and whoring himself away in the brothels without care for cultivation.

Gong enjoyed bullying mortals after becoming a cultivator, but that restricted his Dao Heart to the lowest levels, banning him from seeing the stars beyond the sky ever in his pathetic life.

Gong gritted his teeth. He had finally thought that he could vent his frustrations on someone who fell from a high mountain that he could never reach!

Yet, this brat who was just a nobody, dared to go against him?! His ego could never!

Without saying another word, he lunged forward, putting all strength into the forward thrust of the dagger.

"Pathetic."

Wade simply sidestepped and cocked his arm.

'Shit!' that was all Gong could think before Wade's diamond-like fist uppercut his chin, sending him to get some much-needed sleep.

The body dropped with a thud as the crowd was left stunned.

"Did he just knock out a cultivator…"

"Though, Gong didn't use his Qi."

One smartass pointed out.

"What?! Someone at Gong's level would still be fine even if a metal bat struck their head! Stop reading your fantasy books and be real!"

A flurry of comments and murmurs filled the streets. The remaining goons stood there frozen, unsure of what happened and still processing the shock.

Wade flashed a devilish grin and rushed at the bewildered group.

"Fuck it! I don't believe he can handle us all! Attack!"

One of them came to his senses and unsheathed his sword. Some followed after but a smart few chose to turn around and flee. They weren't dumb enough to fight someone who KO'D a goddamn cultivator!

Wade smirked at their futile attempt, without bothering about feisty ones, he charged straight at those who turned tail.

"No! No! I am sorry!"

The goon's face contorted into one of horror as Wade's hooked punch landed right at the back of his head, knocking him unconscious.

The onlooking crowd took a sharp breath, it was without a doubt that this man would never walk again.

"You are nuts!"

The remaining few desperately tried to run away but found their speed akin to a snail's in comparison to Wade's nimble movements. Fortunately for them, they only got away with only a few broken bones.

The last kids who previously charged at him bravely now stood wide-eyed with their knees shaking.

"I surrender!"

"I surrender!"

Weapons dropped on the ground one after another as the goon kneeled down in defeat.

"What a bunch of spineless worms."

Wade snorted and kicked the passed-out Gong right into his spine, cracking a few sections.

'That will teach him a lesson.'

He then headed toward Ren Clan's residence and the crowd parted to make way for him.

Today, his story will start anew.
