A Cultivation Tale: The Godly Punisher

Chapter 351: The plan and the treasures III

"Really? You were able to do so?" But how?" Layla asked in shock.

"You can't understand. My ways are full of mysteriousness. You would only end up damaging your brain if you try to think of how I was able to pull such an insane feat" Alex said proudly and smiled.

"Wow!" Layla couldn't help but exclaim in an heavily surprised tone.

"But are you really sure about that? Hope it's not that you just dreamt of some people who you met someplace in the city and were exuding sinister intents from their bodies because of you, then you claimed that they are the ones behind the disclosure of our secret relationship to the world?" She asked.

"Nah. Just see it as me developing my awakened sagely powers." Alex said and grinned. He loved surprising his women with his numerous shocking abilities. 

Layla shook her head.

"You have a unique body of great, diverse powers. I am jealous. I feel like hijacking your body right now and make it my main body." Layla said with a smile.

Alex laughed.

"Well, you could create powerful and tough clones from true flesh, bone and blood and then infuse them with a type of power that you have gained deeply profound comprehension into." He said.

"There is something like that too?" Layla asked in a marveled tone.

"Sure. But one must be a great expert first before one would be able to do so. Only experts in Greatverses are able to do such." Alex said.

"Wow. That's really amazing." Layla said with an amazed tone in her voice.

Still looking at Alex, she asked "So, who are these enemies of ours?"

"They are students from the Ancient Heavenly Cauldron academy." Alex replied.

"That academy? How did you even come across them that were you able to offend them? That institution is really far from here, you know" Layla asked and shook her head.

'This guy, always getting himself into trouble' She thought.

"Nah. It was their stupid little brother who calls himself the Bone-sawing Evilchild that sought for trouble from me. It's a long story which I don't have to narrate to you. Just know that I killed him in the end and now, his older brother and sister are after me. And I guess that, since they couldn't come after me because of my powerful uncle, they decided to expose our secret affairs to the world to create problems for me and your family. But now that everything has been settled, with their plans not yielding fruits, they would surely decide to go after those I love to pay me back." Alex said confidently.

Then before Layla could talk, Alex said further "That's why I secretly appeared here, to prevent been seen under the watchful gazes of the spies that are out there and are monitoring my every movement."

"Okay." Layla said.

"So, are you here to tell me to go into hiding till the storm would settle?" She asked.

"Well, something like that. I don't want you to go anywhere till I come back and tell you it's safe to go out. And if you must really go out, go out with a lot of guards. Not that the guards would be able to really put up a fight against these people, they simply could be used as a wall of protection against their attacks. Also, they can be used as security escorts if you really need to go out to do your thing." Alex said.

"Okay. I would do as you say, Alex" Layla said.

Alex nodded his head.

Then he produced a spatial ring from his dad's spatial necklace and gave to Layla who accepted it and looked into it curiously.

When she saw a beautiful necklace in it, her eyes glittered.

"Wow. It's so beautiful" She said.

Then with a thought after sending a wisp of her perception into it, the necklace appeared in the air with a flash of resplendent light.

Layla then caught the necklace in her hand and immediately wore it.

"How do I look in it?" She asked with a smile

"You look beautiful" Alex said.

Layla smiled.

"Thank you for the gift" She said.

Alex nodded his head.

Then he said "Actually, it's more than a necklace. It possesses defensive and offensive weapon-arrays. The defensive array in it can produce a large and thick protective orb which is condensed from golden metalforce energy that should be able to withstand the heavy impacts or tyrannical explosions of at least twenty full-powered, Peak Saint-tier attacks. While the offensive array it possesses would produce enormously-sized, sharpness-imbued beams of golden metalforce energy. The energy beam attacks that the offensive array can unleash should be able to match the destructive power of that of Peak Saint-stage cultivators."

"Oh. It has such things in it? That's really awesome." Layla said with glittering eyes.

"Yea. It's just for some degree of protection till I would arrive." Alex said.

"Till you would arrive? Oh, it has another array that can send some signal to you?" Layla asked.

"Yea. It has distress-signaling array which would continuously scan your immediate surrounding and to a distance of five hundred feet for any hidden or looming elements of danger. Once it notices any kind of force come upon you, it would immediately send a signal to me to alert me that you are in a dangerous zone. And that's why it has those arrays embedded in it. But it can't really sustain the protective, elemental metal orbs that would enclose you in them for a really long time. Same with the energy beam attacks which you can't continuously launch at an adversary. Although I have many others that can sustain their defensive and offensive modes for a really long time, they are only for higher stages, like the Sky Lord stage and Heaven adept stage. It would absolutely do you more harm than good if you use those which would put out a greater aura of power to produce protective energy constructs and unleash attacks." Alex said.

"Alright. I understand, Alex. I would go nowhere only when I definitely need to." Layla said.

Alex then looked around in her office and said "I think you should stop coming to your office. Stay in the Royal palace for the meantime."

Layla nodded her head when she heard that.

She understood what Alex meant by that, which was, if he could teleport so easily into her office, the enemies that he had made and were at the Saint cultivation level could do the same and would choose to either abduct her to torture wherever their base was or would just immediately slaughter her in office in cold blood and go without anyone knowing what had happened to her. And also, that she couldn't replace herself with another person which would be her worker, or that person would be instantly reduced to mist of blood out of great anger by their enemies when they appeared in her office.
