A Cultivation Tale: The Godly Punisher

Chapter 269: The Appearance

"What?" The principal of the Immovable Mountain Academy asked in shock and anger. 

He had understood what the principal meant by that. 

Then he continued to rapidly unleash attacks at the principal that was fighting him so that he could break away from this engagement and fly towards Alex to protect him.

At another side of the high table... 

"What's the meaning of these nonsense that you guys are doing?" Olivia's mom, Stacy, asked with annoyance in her voice.

"This is because the principal of the Scarlet Fire academy has planned something great for the boy that would become the husband of your daughter in future" One of the principals who were attacking Olivia's family replied.

...

When Alex evaded the killing attack that was unleashed by the principal of the Scarlet Fire academy, the principal became terribly shocked.

He was shocked that Alex could predict when he was going to attack. But he wouldn't know that Alex detected his intention with his powerful emotion-sense which had suddenly come up.

As Alex dashed towards the high table to go meet Olivia's family, he immediately stopped when he saw that they were being attacked by some of the other principals. Then he thought of what next to do.

But the moment that he started contemplating the next action to take, a powerful force suddenly engulfed his body. This was a restrictive force that was put out by the principal of the Scarlet Fire academy from where he stood.josei

Then the force surrounding Alex's figure carried him off into the the air and towards where the principal of the Scarlet Fire academy floated at.

"Well, to be honest boy, I was amazed by your abilities. If you were from my academy, you would have grown into a powerful and ruthless cultivator. But now, you would have to die. Why, because you dared to hurt a student of mine. And in my school, we teach viciousness, unforgiveness and total elimination of one's challenger, whether they are one's enemies or not. That's the only way we can grow to become fearsome and be greatly dreaded by every soul in the world. In that way, we would become powerful, as the aura of viciousness and ominousness that would erupt from us would frighten all beings and weaken their abilities. So be ready to be destroyed, and your unborn generations totally erased from this realmverse. Haha" The principal of the Scarlet Fire academy coldly said and laughed wickedly once Alex appeared in front of him.

"Don't you dare!" Olivia's mom's voice boomed out in great rage from where she was.

Then with a lift using her telekinetic power, Olivia who was enveloped by a powerful forcefield was carried off the platform that they were on. And with a strong blast of pyroforce energy from her hands, she broke away from the encirclement of the principals and speedily flew towards where the principal of the Scarlet Fire academy was. While the other principals also immediately flew after her with the intention of  stopping her.

The principal of the Scarlet Fire academy simply ignored Olivia's mom who was furiously dashing towards him and clenched his fist, and as he did so, the invisible restraining force that he put out which completely engulfed Alex's body instantly shrunk and compressed. And by causing this, just about anything enveloped by this telekinetic force would explode into pieces from it extreme contraction.

But nothing actually happened to Alex who was still suspended in the air by some force that felt gentle to him.

Then someone who had mysteriously appeared in the sky, slowly descended to the ground. And as he descended, everyone's attention was pulled towards him, both within and outside the treasure-stadium.

With everyone now looking up and wondering who that was, the person floating down from the sky finally arrived a few feet above the principal of the Scarlet Fire academy in the air and then gazed at him with a cold smile plastered in his face.

"Hello" He greeted gently. But this gentle greeting caused the blood in the body of the principal from the Scarlet Fire academy to violently churn. 

Then he continued "I have been watching the match between this boy and the geniuses of the other academies. He fought fair and square, but you said that he cheated. So in what way did he cheat during the battle? I would like to know"

The principal of the Scarlet Fire academy who was shocked by the sudden appearance of this person became lost of any word to say.

Also, his heart began to race way faster than normal that his heartbeat could be heard if a mortal listened to it carefully. Besides, his skin had become pale-white from the fear that had surfaced in his heart and engulfed every inch of it.

Then to quickly reply to this man's question before he became angry, he said in a stuttering manner which actually resulted from the dread that that had encompassed his very heart, mind and soul.

"A-Actually, he d-didn't c-ch-cheat. I-I was o-only trying t-to scare him. Please"

This person that had just appeared gave a smile.

"Okay." He said.

Then before he could say or do anything, Alex hurriedly said "Uncle wait, I want his spatial ring"

"Oh! Alright" Alex's uncle, Houston said with a smile.

When Alex called Houston 'uncle', the eyes of the principal of the Scarlet Fire academy shone with great shock.

'Is he his uncle? Oh no' He said in a gloomy tone inwardly.

But hidden deep within this shock was intense anger. Anger that Alex was actually asking for his spatial ring.

"Give me your spatial ring" Houston said authoritatively.

Very quickly, the principal of the Scarlet Fire academy pulled off his spatial ring from his finger and gave it to Houston who accepted it with a smile.

"Here" Houston threw the spatial ring at Alex who caught it as he was lowered to the ground.

"W-Would you l-let me go now?" The principal of the Scarlet Fire academy asked fearfully.

"Sure" Houston said.

Then the principal of the Scarlet Fire academy quickly shot into the air to fly far away from here.

However, before he could even move an inch in the air, a strong constrictive force suddenly came upon him.

Then the principal of the Scarlet Fire academy became perplexed by the enveloping constraining force that had suddenly manifested around him. But realizing in the next instant who put out that force, he quickly said with a sad and gloomy tone in his voice. "But you said you would let me go?"

The principal of the Scarlet Fire academy asked politely, but Houston could still sense the great anger and vengefulness that was concealed in his tone.

"Yes, I promised that I would let you go to hell" Houston coldly said.

Then with eyes that glowed in deep blue, the body of the principal of the Scarlet Fire academy burst into an inferno-sized flame.

It was actually the heat of his body that had augmented greatly in temperature which then transformed into bright blue raging flames that began to ferociously burn his body.

Then in the next instant, his body vanished into thin air.

It had been burned into nothingness.

That was why Alex quickly asked for the principal's ring, as he was sure that his uncle would cause everything on the body of the principal to burn into nothing.

Then when Houston focused on the people at the high table, many of the principals who felt they were guilty because of their greedy actions began to shiver and tremble in fear. And now that the battle between Olivia's mom and a few of the other principals had stopped, she flew to where Houston was and greeted him respectfully.

Same with the rest of her family who appeared a few moment later. They had flew from the high table towards where he was.

Houston nodded at them with a smile in his face.

"We are sincerely sorry that we made you appear. If we knew that you were his uncle, we would have given Olivia's hand in marriage to him without a need for any competition to see if he's truly worthy of her. Once again, we are sincerely sorry" Olivia's mom, Stacy, said with politeness in her tone.

She was really going to kill Olivia when they got back to their mansion.

Why didn't she tell her that the boy who took her virginity was related to Houston?

This question that rocked her mind and soul made her greatly pissed off.

However, she was extremely happy about this shocking news.

The delight that had appeared in her heart which she struggled to conceal from appearing in her face knew no bound. It was simply immeasurable.

So this peerlessly handsome and super-strong boy that took her daughter's virginity was actually related to this man? She still felt like she was dreaming, but she also didn't want to wake up from it.

But she however believed that this was reality.

Now, they needed to fear no one anymore. Every opposition and adversary would back far away from them once they hear that the boy who would be the husband of her daughter in future, was related to Houston. Just thinking about this made her immensely glad. Now, from Olivia's actions, they have bonded to possibly the most powerful man in the continent in this Planeverse which was also a mortal world. But if she knew that Houston was an Ancient, one that ruled over a Greatverse but left it to take care of Alex because of his brother; to morally bring him up and to train him as Alex possessed literally, hundreds of astonishing gifts to start and finish what they couldn't even dare to start, she could faint and wake many months later.

"Good day, senior" Olivia said with a bow.

But fear and nervousness could be detected in her tone.

The fright and nervousness in her tone resulted from her being overly worried that Alex's uncle might not approve of her in any way. Why she thought so was because she felt that Houston might not like the way she lost her virginity to Alex at such a young age, and so, might feel that she isn't the right person for Alex, and that she was a whore.

"Olivia, right?" Houston asked with a smile in his face.

"Yes, senior" Olivia quickly replied and in a respectful tone.

"Alright." Houston said. Then he continued, looking at Alex who looked back at him with a smile "Are you sure that this boy is really deserving of you?"

"Yes, senior" Olivia immediately replied.

"Okay. But if he gives you trouble, come report him to me so I may severely punish him for you" Houston said warmly.

"Certainly senior." Olivia replied with a glad smile.

At this time, seeing how gentle and accommodating Alex's uncle was, the nervousness in her tone had vanished. Then she began to reply to his questions with her usual confident and beautiful voice.

"Good. Then I shall leave you guys to talk. I have something to do" Houston said with an amiable smile.

Then he shot a pencil-thin ray of resplendent light from his fingertip into the distance. This then turned into a large portal at the distance that it had reached. And once this ray turned into a space-portal, it immediately began to rotate and swiftly drew closer to Houston's figure.

Then once the portal swallowed up his figure, he vanished, appearing before the huge gate of the Scarlet Fire academy.
