While Others Cultivate, I LVL UP In My Sleep Using The Dungeon System

Chapter 152 - Maxwell Family Meeting Part 1

Adam was excited to enter the Maxwell Family Headquarters and attend the meeting as Angela's guard, but he still needed to conceal his identity.

"I still need a mask," said Adam.

"Oh yeah, I forgot about that. Wayde, do you have a mask that Adam can use?" asked Angela.

"Yes, mistress. I shall provide him one after we park at the building" answered Wayde.

Wayde parked in the car park of the building, where he was graciously welcomed by the guards that respected him massively, and he opened the door for Angela to leave.

Adam left by himself and was handed a black mask that had red demonic patterns by Wayde.

It was a mask that covered his entire face, leaving only 2 eye holes and holes for him to speak and breathe through. Matched with his red eyes, it gave him a frightening appearance and concealed his identity perfectly.

It was exactly what he needed and Adam was planning on keeping it in his inventory along with the set of clothes that he had prepared for when he wanted to conceal his identity.

"Can you guys wait 1 minute? I need the bathroom" said Adam as he scurried off to a bathroom that he saw in the corner of the car park.

"Ugh, such a nuisance" commented Angela as she stood there with Wayde, waiting for Adam.

Adam entered the bathroom with casual clothes and the mask in his hand, then left in an all-black set of clothes that were quite tight, but flexible and durable. He had also changed into black trainers that were light and made it easier for him to run with.

They hadn't seen him bring any clothes with him, but didn't ask where he had gotten them from as they headed to the lift that would take them up to the top floor.

Adam was dressed in all black, was hooded and wearing the mask that Wayde had given him, while the clothes he was wearing before were placed in the inventory.

"You seem to be dressed like an assassin. Are you planning to kill anybody?" asked Angela while they stood in the lift.

Adam was about to make a joke and say that he was, but looking at Wayde who had kept his eye on him, Adam decided against that.

"No, I am merely protecting my identity. Which benefits both of us, as it will allow me to provide you with my assistance without the interference of your family" answered Adam.

"Do not speak unless you are asked to or need to. Do not stare at anybody. Do not start a fight with anybody and everything that you hear within this meeting is private and confidential. If you breach these rules, I will personally make sure that you die" stated Wayde.

Adam nodded his head, planning to do all of those things anyway, but he couldn't help but feel slightly intimidated and scared by Wayde's threat as the lift door opened to reveal the top floor.

The building was extremely large, modern and luxurious and Adam could sense a large amount of energy in the building. With so many cultivators, resources and treasures in one building, there was bound to be an abundant amount of energy.

There seemed to be thousands of people in the building, and assuming that most of them were part of the Maxwell Family, Adam was surprised. If that was the case, then the other cultivation families would be extremely large, as it was known that the Maxwell Family was one of the smaller families in terms of numbers.

Adam had heard a lot about the Maxwell Family and knew that they were declining when compared to the other large cultivation families of New York, but compared to himself and what he had seen, they were on another level.

Their wealth, power and knowledge had been accumulated over centuries and passed down over generations. Adam had massively underestimated that after hearing so much negativity about the Maxwell Family, but Wayde alone could topple most of the other cultivation families and organisation in New York alone.

Adam had underestimated the gap between the large families and the others, and after realising that, he also realised that it was an incredible opportunity for him to become allied with the Maxwell Family.

He didn't want to join them and wanted to keep his freedom, but was more than willing to become allied with them. Although that would make him the enemy of all the other large cultivation families, it was the most suitable option, considering where he lived and where those that he cared about were situated.

The top floor was mostly open and there was a large conference table in the centre with food, drinks and refreshments along the sides of the large area.

There were many other rooms on the top floor and the lift they took, took them to the conference room, but Adam didn't dare to snoop and followed closely behind Angela.

They walked around for a few minutes and Adam could see that there was quite a lot of friction between members of the Maxwell Family and Angela seemed to be in the centre of a lot of it.

Her beauty was leagues above that of what Adam had seen and even greater than the models and fashionistas that most idolised and to go with that, was her status, talent and rare elemental affinity.

Many of the guys in the large conference room had their eyes on Angela, and since the Maxwell Family had been in existence for centuries, their bloodline had been diluted massively. This had weakened them, but also made it so that they could marry within the family.

Angela was the perfect female companion that a cultivator could ask for, especially since she was complacent and didn't cultivate much, which would allow her partner to overpower her.

However, with Wayde beside her, nobody dared to try and do anything to her as Adam observed most people in the room, noting down everything that he saw.
