Chapter 72: I’m Looking for the Yeagers

“Why not?” Cara asked.

Cole smiled and answered, “I don’t think I need Uncle to waste his energy protecting me now.

“Let Uncle follow you. This way, your safety will be more guaranteed.”

Cole wanted to find a job, and now that his cultivation level had increased, he basically did not need Hugh’s protection.

“This…” Hugh hesitated.

He was worried that people from the six families still wanted to cause trouble.

Seeing this, Cole smiled. “It’s fine. With my current skills, I can escape even if you were the one who came to capture me.”

Hugh did not insist.

After all, Cole was telling the truth.

“Up to you.” Cara agreed with Cole.

Cole nodded. “Okay.”

However, Cara seemed to have seen through Cole’s intentions. She asked, “Aren’t you considering working at the Williams Corporation?”

Clearly, Cara knew very well why Cole was running around these few days.

“It’s fine. If I really can’t find a job, I’ll look for you at the corporation.”

Cole smiled.

This sounded much better than directly refusing her.

However, Cara glanced at him. “Finish spending the ten million first.”

“Uh…” Cole was speechless.

“Let’s go.” Cara smiled and walked out of the Bamboo Pavilion.

Although Hugh no longer followed Cole, he still acted as the chauffeur and sent Cole back to his apartment.

Back in his neighborhood.

Cole was not idle. He started to recall the information about Simone from last night.

According to his memory, Simone had used a palm technique the previous day, but the technique did not seem to be powerful.

Moreover, as per the information Hugh told him on the way, Simone was famous for her hidden weapons.

In other words, her true energy might be gentler.

True energy was generally divided into two types, rigid and flexible.

For example, Hugh was a classic example of a rigid person. He was domineering and bold, fully demonstrating his rigidity.

Zen Slade was a stubborn person.

However, his strength was reflected in his defense.

If he had reached the fourth grade of the Connate realm, his defense would have been so strong that it would make people despair.

As for the soft-hearted, they were like Simone and Kamila Lawson.

It was similar to hiding one’s aura and movement speed. They relied on their true energy.

Their strength was even more cunning and could catch people off guard.

This was especially true for hidden weapons. If one did not have flexible true energy, it was impossible for them to disappear without a trace.

Cole’s true energy did not have any strong characteristics.

In other words, although he had the characteristics of both rigid and flexible true energy, ultimately, it was neutral.

He could be gentle and agile, or he could be domineering and tough.

In other words, he had everything!

“Flexible true energy is not a problem. The main thing is that this old fellow’s hidden weapons will definitely be full of poison. I might need to take a medicinal bath to prepare my defense.”

After pondering it for a while, Cole suddenly thought of something.

Since Simone knew how to use hidden weapons, poison was probably inevitable.

Who would not use poison when using hidden weapons?

Therefore, resistance to poison had become a problem that Cole needed to solve.

But he was not worried.

The reason was that his master had once told him that his physique was excellent and extremely powerful.

He was so strong that it was abnormal.

***

Cole, who had read too many online novels, had once asked his master with glowing eyes, “What does this “abnormal” mean? Could it be that I have a holy body?”

His master, Grant Rogers, denied the claim and hit Cole.

Then, Grant solemnly said, “Your strength lies in the fact that you’re blank.”

Cole frowned. “What do you mean?”

“You’re nothing.”

Grant seriously remarked.

Cole was speechless.

Later, with Grant’s explanation, Cole had understood that his “blankness” was enough.

It was like a piece of white paper that was large enough for anyone to scribble on it.

In this case, it meant that Cole was extremely malleable.

Therefore, Grant had started to destroy Cole.

During the process of destruction, Grant used a large number of medicinal herbs.

He consciously used a large number of strong medicinal herbs with surging medicinal power to increase Cole’s ability to absorb medicinal herbs and his tolerance limit for the natural treasures.

Medicinal herbs were very important to martial artists and could provide them with a large amount of true energy.

For martial artists’ cultivation, the medicinal herbs used to nourish their bodies were usually strong and nourishing.

The strong medicinal power would surge, but it tested a martial artist’s endurance even more.

The medicinal effect of the warm tonic was weak, but it did not require a martial artist’s endurance.

Ordinary martial artists would choose medicinal herbs that were warm and nourishing. The gentle medicinal effect was just right for ordinary martial artists to slowly absorb it.

Although it was slower, it was stable.

For example, violent martial artists also chose warm and nourishing medicinal herbs.

Their cultivation method was to continuously destroy their bodies and use medicinal herbs to speed up their recovery before repeating the cycle.

As for the strong medicinal herbs, although the medicinal power in them was stronger, if the medicinal power of the medicinal herbs was too strong, the body would not be able to withstand the infusion of natural treasures and would suffer a backlash.

The person would become useless.

The reason Grant allowed Cole to use strong medicinal herbs was to let his “blank” body get used to the medicinal power of the strong medicinal herbs so that he could use more powerful natural treasures in the future.

This way, Cole’s cultivation speed would greatly increase in the future. He could also directly absorb the strong herbs that others could not eat.

Cole’s future was limitless!

Therefore, Grant tortured Cole even more day and night because of this.

Sometimes, Cole even suspected that Grant was taking it out on him.

In the process of using strong drugs, Grant would occasionally feed Cole poison. Then, through his medical skills, he would determine the limit of the toxicity that Cole could withstand.

When Cole would be on the verge of dying, Grant would save him…

When Cole, who had been saved, would stare at Grant angrily and weakly, Grant would explain that this was to increase his resistance to poison.

After a year of destruction, Cole’s tolerance and resistance toward poison had reached an outrageous level.

Although he could not bear to recall those days, Cole was still grateful when he thought about it.

At least he was not that afraid of Simone’s poison.

“However, when the Medicine Oath dissipated my cultivation, I wonder if it also took away my ability to resist poison and withstand strong medicinal herbs…”

Cole pondered.

He worried that his resistance to poison was gone.

In that case, he might have to prepare for the test in the next four days.

For example, by taking poison!

He was also thinking of preparing some strong medicinal herbs for himself to use for a medicinal bath so that he could quickly increase his strength.

“Let’s think of a prescription first.”

Cole picked up his pen thoughtfully.

***

At this time…

In the district of Sky City!

“I’ll make a call.”

Steve Hayes, who had just returned to the house, said.

“What do you want?”

Jayden subconsciously asked.

He was about to discuss how to deal with Cole and the Williams family with Steve.

“I have something to discuss with the Yeager family.”

Steve smiled.
