Chapter 1146 Defeating Young

Young managed to beat Alex up before he powered up the Nine Lightning Whip. Hence, he should have. been able to deal with Alex easily after the power-up. He couldn't make heads or tails of how things had turned out.

Alex decided to tell Young his capabilities as there was still one more thing he needed Young for.

"You managed to hit me during the first few strikes because I didn't want to dodge. I wanted to see just how powerful your Nine Lightning Whip was. However, it's really nothing special after trying it out, for it. only felt ticklish to me. Otherwise, do you really think you can strike me?" Alex said contemptuously.

Alex wasn't exaggerating his abilities. His body had been endowed with the ability to resist lightning after surviving the Lightning Tribulation. Hence, he wanted to see if the Nine Lightning Whip could have the

same effect.

Nevertheless, he realized there was no such effect after trying it out. He would need something even more powerful if he wanted to power up. Of course, the prerequisite was to survive the hit!

As a grandmaster, Alex could easily crush Young since his Nine Lightning Whip had been taken away from him. This was the gap in their Mortal Force cultivation technique.

On one hand, as the sect leader of the secret world, Young was responsible for managing all matters within the sect. The only reason he was able to reach the level of a Grandmaster was due to the abundant. spiritual energy in the secret world.

As for Alex, his ability to level up to that of the beginner phase of the Grandmaster realm was the result of him taking on opponents much stronger than him every time. It was through experiences and narrow escapes from death that he gained such strength.

Leaving aside their Mortal Force cultivation technique, Alex could easily crush Young based on his experience in combat alone.

After exchanging a few moves, Young found himself cornered. Alex seized the opportunity and grabbed Young by the neck..

Young resigned himself to fate as he closed his eyes. Alex was now the clear winner. There was no point in him struggling anymore.

Alex raised his hand and blocked Young's chi. Young could feel the Mortal Force within him seeping away with the speed of lightning. There was nothing he could do to stop it.

In just a few minutes, Young felt all the Mortal Force within him gone, and he went limp as if he was a deflated balloon.

He lay on the ground, unable to muster the strength to pull himself up. He looked at Alex and asked weakly, "W-What did you do to me?"

-Alex sneered, "I've taken away your Mortal Force. You won't be able to cultivate anymore. You're no more

than an ordinary man now."

Young had reached the Grandmaster realm after cultivating for fifty to sixty years. He never thought at young man would be able to take it away from him just like that. It was even more painful than death itself. "Why are you doing this? You should have killed me! Just kill me already!"

Young screamed with all his might, but it was no use. Alex merely smiled at him..

"How could I possibly kill you like this? I want your sect to hand over all the businesses they've taken from the Grant family, and then report back to your ruler that as long as I, Alex, remain in the real world, I will take down anyone from the secret world who dares wreak havoc. No mercy will be shown," Alex said coldly.

"Why should I help you when you've taken my Mortal Force away from me? I'd rather commit suicide than deliver that message of yours!" Young stared at Alex resentfully.

As if Alex had already anticipated Young's response, he turned to the disciples of the Leight Sect and said, "I have no objection to you rejecting my request. That is, if you don't care about the lives of your disciples, then you may do as you wish."

Alex's words caught Young off guard. He had no choice but to suppress his desire to die as he took a deep breath. He knew he was now firmly under Alex's control, with no room for resistance.

Although the Leight Sect consisted of several hundred members, their strongest was only a second-phase Master. Their levels were nothing to Alex as he would be able to crush them all easily. "All right, I'll do it!" Young said helplessly.
