Killing one of them

As Alex ran, he didn't speed up too much so they could meet up with him.

After running for hours in search of a valley, he finally arrived before one.

Then he dashed into it towards it center and then stopped, waiting for his attacker to arrive.

Not long, the Sky Lord-stage cultivator appeared before Alex with an astonished expression written all over his face.

"Boy, I must give it you, your speed is impressive. I can't believe that I couldn't catch you as you ran." The Sky Lord-stage cultivator said.

Haha!

Alex laughed.

"Sure. My speed is impressive. How can someone as useless as you match my movement speed on foot? Eh?" He asked with a smile.

"I see that you want your death so quick. But I won't do that. I will make sure I torture you to my satisfaction before beheading you." The Sky Lord-stage cultivator said.

Haha!

Alex laughed again.

"Are you really sure about that?" He asked.
