These involuntary people saw the old shoemaker.
They wanted to greet him but compared to Bearman, Hair Fiend, and the Fire Brothers, they were just commoners, they couldn't even open their mouths.
All they could do was allow the old shoemaker to control them.
"The ball is about to begin.
"Go! Go! "
"Look for your dance partners!"
The old shoemaker waved his hand and the controlled commoners dashed out of the street, destroying everything they saw.
Raging flames rose from the building.
It brought a thick black hue to the bright afternoon.
Black smoke rumbled and rose up to the sky.
The old shoemaker stared at the smoke.
Then, he was stunned.
This was because smoke was constantly gathering in the air. The sunny afternoon sky quickly turned pitch-black. A huge hand that seemed to have merged with the heavens and the earth slammed down.
It felt like …
The sky was falling.
The old shoemaker's self-proclaimed nimbleness was useless.
The secret technique that filled him with confidence was useless.
The sky was falling.
The mortals were like ants.
The old shoemaker was just a stronger one.
KABOOM!
The giant hand pressed down on him.
It enveloped all the people he controlled.
None of them were left behind.
Then, they were crushed into powder.
Pain!
Pain!
Pain that came from his bones and soul assaulted the old shoemaker in waves, causing his body to shiver non-stop. In the end …
Puk!
A mouthful of blood was spat out.
It sprayed on the shoe in his hand.
The shoe that should have been finished but wasn't.
The blood was dazzling.
It was even soul-stirring.
The old shoemaker raised his trembling head and looked at the guest in the chair opposite him.
The black crow feather mantle, the young but mature face, the calmness in his eyes added a sense of wisdom to the mature face, making the common face look extraordinary.
"When?
"When did I get pulled into an illusion?"
How did your illusion feel so real?
How did you do it?
Perforation Sting's leader and the God of Forest City wouldn't have given you such abilities! "
The old shoemaker coughed repeatedly but he didn't forget to question Kieran.
Kieran didn't answer.
He was not used to answering the enemy's questions.
Especially when the other party harbored ill intentions.
Chi!
After the sound of breaking air, the old shoemaker's two arms splattered with blood and a roller fell to the ground.
A strand of hair quietly wrapped around his neck.
His desperate attack did not work.
Feeling the ice-cold hair on his neck, the old shoemaker couldn't help but smile.
"I underestimated you."
"But do you think this is the end?"
"Let me tell you, everything is just the beginning!"
The shoemaker laughed in a heavy tone. Then, his laughter stopped abruptly. His face swiftly turned purple and he lost all signs of life.
"Dead?"
The tall and sturdy 'bearman' mumbled.
The Yan Huo Brothers frowned as well.
No matter what kind of enemy it was, they were all detestable.
But among all the enemies, Death Warriors were the most detestable kind.
"Burn it."
Kieran said softly before he stood up and walked outside.
Behind him, including the shoemaker's body, everything in the shoemaker's shop was turned into a blazing flame by the Yan Huo Brothers' hands.
"Put out the fire!"
"Put out the fire!"
The cries of the neighbors sounded one after another, bucket after bucket of water was poured on the fire but it was like trying to put out a burning cart of firewood with a cup of water.
In the face of the raging fire, it was of no use.
In the end, they decided to separate the two sides of the shoemaker's shop to prevent the fire from spreading.
From the start to the end, no one noticed Kieran and co. leaving.
Except for …
Scotdery!
Even though he was dead but his soul wasn't extinguished, Scotdery ignored the burning fire and hid in a corner, watching Kieran and co. leave.
"Although you have become a 'god'!"
"But how can a 'god' like you compare to the real His Majesty?"
"You're still far from it!"
In his soul form, Scotdery's body was emitting a unique brilliance that couldn't be seen by the naked eye.
The brilliance didn't just allow him to be unafraid of fire in his soul form, it even granted him some abilities that common souls didn't possess.
The brilliance flickered and Scotdery vanished into thin air like a gust of wind, flying further away.
He was fast and stealthy.
No matter how vigilant a person was, they wouldn't pay attention to a harmless wind.
The wind blew along the way and when it reached a certain loft in Forest City, the wind stopped.
Scotdery in his soul form appeared and walked towards the loft.
However, he didn't enter the loft.
Instead, he entered the small alley beside the loft.
At the height of a man and a half, a rune was carved below the window sill on the second floor of the loft.
After that, Scotdery turned into the wind again and vanished on the spot.
For the next hour, Scotdery shuttled back and forth in Forest City, leaving behind rune after rune.
When the last rune was carved, the old shoemaker dived into the secret hiding spot that he had prepared beforehand.
Inside the hiding spot, there wasn't just enough food and water.
There was also a man who looked like an idiot.
Without any pause, Scotdery dived into the man's body.
About two minutes later, the man who had been in a daze before returned to normal. He spoke in a hoarse and gloomy voice.
"What you gave me, I will return it to you!"
"Ten times!"
"A hundred times!"
"Believe me, that day won't take long!"
"Is that so?"
After the grudgeful words, a calm question shocked Scotdery.
The old shoemaker turned around out of instinct.
Based on his experience, he shouldn't have done that.
However, the shock in his heart made him unable to maintain his calm demeanor.
A long and powerful palm grabbed the shoemaker's throat, causing his head, which was turning halfway, to freeze on the spot along with his body.
Scotdery who couldn't speak widened his eyes at Kieran who appeared before him, his face was filled with disbelief.
Then, his face was filled with a begging expression.
But in the end, it turned into a vicious expression and even a threat.
Kieran smiled at the threat.
Because he got what he wanted.
"Seems like one of the places you left your mark just now is very valuable."
"Or should I say, a few of them are valuable?"
"Let's hope they are as tough as you!"
"Otherwise, you'll lose everything."
After hearing what Kieran said, the vicious expression on the shoemaker's face finally showed a sense of fear.
Until then, the shoemaker realized that Kieran before him had a much bigger scheme than he imagined.
Kieran didn't just want him and the contacts around him.
He also wanted the one behind him …
