Chapter 14 The Shadow Serpents

...

Four hours earlier before the rescue in a shop in the underground. Josief was standing in front of an old building, with a name on the board "Shadow Serpents".

Josief smiled, finally he had found the store he had searched around the different stores and areas for it. In this little old store was a strong future organization. They were called the Shadow Serpents.

It was due to that all their members were cultivators who had marks on their body of a black serpent. They were efficient with finding information kidnapping and even assassinations. They even assassinated the mayor of Jolly City in the future. They were such strong and big organization that they rivaled The Immortals in power. Their leader "Ghost Snake" was S-class talent who was in the peak of body transformation stage.

"They should be just some low group of thugs right now. I can easily handle them right now, but would it change the flow of time of the future, and create a butterfly effect. The butterfly effect is that of an idea that the small things can change and cause huge if not dangerous effects for the future timeline.

"Like the saying, a butterfly flapping its wings can cause a hurricane on the other side of the world! Like i would care, i had a miserable life " josief scoffed, and went in to the shop.

...

Inside of the Shadow serpent a half a dozen of men was gambling and drinking. They all laughed and were heavily drunk. Everyone of them looked massively different from each other, but all of them had a serpent mark on their body, some had in their shoulder other under the ear. But nonetheless they were having fun all until a door was slammed. Making a clear loud noise, showing that that was here.

They all turned and looked at the front door and saw a dirty looking teenager stare at them.

"It does not look like that guy is here." Josief turned to the group of people.

"Are you guys the Shadow Serpents" and asked in a profound serious way while pointing at them. Some of mens felt provoked with the way Josief pointed at them and they grouped up around.

"Brat! Hasn't your parents told you to be respectful to your elders and not to that point at others."

"He, probably don't have any parents, just look at him. He looks like one of those kids from the slums. HAHAHA...."

Some of the men laughed, but it did not last long as what they heard next, befuddled as they didn't expect it.

"I have a job request for you guys! Its to have a special women who's surrounded with body guards drown down at the port. The reward is fifteen thousand yuan." he said whit no hesitation and stared at them with his eyes showing just no emotion just indifferent.

When they all heard it were so confused, they looked at each other and back at him again. A little tension started to grow, but some second after the little dissolved into laughter. They all were laughing at him, their expression told that they were fully amused with his words.

Josief had expected this situation and a just played quiet till they had rubbed it off. When they had calmed down they looked again at him and saw that he was serious, they then said.

"Brat! Why would we do all that, if we could just kill you here and take all your money." They all gaze at Josief right after someone had said that.

"I thought something like this would happen, i would have loved if the non troubled way could have worked, but it seems that i have to do it the hard way." Josief let go a problematic sigh and looked at all of them.

He then charged up against the closest one and sent a blow straight to his gut. The man eyes nearly turned white, but that was not the end of it. Josief then took a grip on the mans ponytail and slammed his face straight down at the floor and then sent it to the walls. Which after the collusion made a hole.

The others didn't have time to react to the face slam, after that they all ganged up on him and fought him all at the same time. With Josief past life fighting experience this type of fight was nothing. He dodged a blows thrown which were aimed at his body and counterattacked with sending them ruthlessly flying or to the floor.

When a punch finally hit him, and sent him some distance away He quickly regain his calmness and spit some blood out. Josief knew although he a cultivator, his body hasn't fully developed yet, its still just a 16 years old boy body, who has just started his with his body tempering cultivation. He is not invincible. His endurance is just over average of common teenagers, but as a cultivator he will find substitute to try his new cultivation power and rushed fast against them to continue to fight.

His attacks started to be more ruthless and vicious, always aiming at for the vital point of the human body, but as some incense times passed, the attacks were more lighthearted, which gave some injuries. They could be broken ribs and bones, or getting knocked and even jaw dislocation, but none of their damage were critical injuries. Which got some of those who were still awake wondering.

"Are you people wondering, why not have not dealt any critical injuries on you guys?" Josief gave a chilling smile while he looking down at all of them who were down at the floor lying on the floor like many dead dogs.

When the men on the floor looked up on his face, a frightening feeling came upon them when they saw his smile. They were still in disbelief, of their loss to a brat who haven't even finished school.

"Well, I still need you guys to be able to do your job. I'll also take two of your men as some insurance to fulfill the job." Josief said and took two men who were beaten black and blue and dragged them out through the door and left the store.

The men were in terror as they looked at Josief walking out while dragging their dear brothers as thrash. In that moment all of them thought how such a shameless brat could exist. He came in to our store with disturbance, ordered us to do a job, ruthlessly beat us up and then threaten us to do his bidding.

This brat is shameless among the shameless and now due to this they had to go for the girl or else their dear brothers would be killed.

Now the store that was filled with laughter and joy was utterly abolished to destruction, walls filled with holes and the floors new mattress "The flat serpents".

...

As Josief walked out he had a smile, this made his plan go much faster. The reason Josief took the Shadow Serpents was because they would try do do everything for its fraternal(1) members.

Was it shameful probably, but what is shame, can you use it? Can you eat it! The answer is no! As for Josief past life, he had already liberate himself from this types of useless feelings. He lives now for his and his close one lives. Thats the only thing that matters in this life for him.

While outside of the Shadow Serpent store a young teenager was taking photographs of Josief who had just come out dragging unconscious bodies of two men from the store. The young teenager had the biggest smile across his face and continued to follow Josief.

...

5 hours later in the middle of the night out in port Josief was putting all the bodies in the parked cars out and driving them out to the sea, dropping the bodies of the group out in their cars. He hasn't spared no one of them, not even his hostages. After he had dealt with them, he went inside. In the warehouse was a Melina, a women who was dressed a teared dress and a Jolly school jacket.

Josief got finally to have some alone time with Melina, but due to what she had been through, she being silent and didn't want to speak while waiting for her company guards. Josief didn't force it as it would just have destroyed all what he had until now. Then Melina suddenly got a call and answered it.

After she finished talking to the phone, she suddenly gave the phone to Josief. Josief who was stunned for her actions, took the and tried to listen.

"Sir, could you please help our young mistress to the JCPC(2)?"
