The Legendary Man novel Chapter 471

Chapter 471 Suitable

Hades did not become the leader of the Eight Kings of War by showing others mercy.

Instead, he accomplished that by killing countless people.

Punisher’s ashen face was contorted as he looked at Hades.

He was ranked third on Heaven’s List and the best in the assassin world. He had never been humiliated in that manner.

Three years ago, Jonathan defeated him using a single strike. Punisher could not believe he was being beaten and put to shame by Jonathan’s subordinate three years later.

How could he let that slide?

“Prove your worth with your strength if you’re reluctant to admit defeat. Let me tell you. If it wasn’t for Mr. Goldstein’s wish to spare your life, do you think you could get off the plane alive?” Hades said disdainfully.

“All right. That’s enough.” Jonathan casually put out his cigarette and walked up to them.

“Do you know why I’m looking for you?” Jonathan stared at Punisher indifferently.

“I don’t know!” Punisher grimaced and gritted his teeth.

“It’s a simple matter. I want you to help me with something. I want to turn Dark Web into Asura’s Office’s Dark Web!” Jonathan uttered.

“What do you mean?” Punisher was shocked.

“Don’t you think it is time for a new person to take charge of Dark Web? I think you’re a suitable candidate.” Jonathan elaborated with a smile.

“Me?” Punisher frowned at Jonathan, seemingly confused by the latter’s explanation.

“You foreigners are just too stupid and slow-witted at times. Simply put, you will be in charge of Dark Web and serve Asura’s Office from now on.”

“Me? In charge of Dark Web?” Punisher’s expression changed drastically. “Do you know how many assassins are on Dark Web and how powerful they are?”

Jonathan interjected him, “That’s not important. You only need to reply to me whether you accept my offer or not. You don’t have to worry about the other matters.”

“I…”

Punisher wanted to speak but was interrupted by Jonathan again. “You don’t have to get back to me hastily. I’ll give you an afternoon to consider. Come and meet me tonight with your definite answer.”

After finishing his sentence, Jonathan did not waste another second talking to Punisher. Jonathan directly turned around and left. However, he suddenly stopped in his tracks and said, “By the way, just to remind you, you should avoid doing anything foolish. You must trust Asura’s Office’s capabilities to hunt you down and end your life no matter where you escape to. Do you understand me?”

Instantaneously, menace flashed across Jonathan’s eyes as he emitted an overwhelming aura from his body.

At that moment, Punisher felt cold sweat drenched his back. A sense of foreboding washed over him as if his head would detach from his body if he dared to say no to Jonathan.

“Mr. Goldstein, are you sure you want to collaborate with that guy?” Hades could not contain his curiosity and asked the moment they walked out of the door.

Hades could not fathom why Punisher was chosen when there were so many candidates from Asura’s Office.

“Why not? Don’t you think this sensation of having our spy on Dark Web is thrilling?” Jonathan replied calmly.

“Phew!”

Sitting cross-legged on the bed, he exhaled deeply and slowly opened his eyes. A hint of blue light flashed across his gleaming eyes.

“I did not expect the early stage and middle stage of Enlightenment to be so different!”

Jonathan clenched his fists, sensing the endless, overflowing energy within his body. He could feel his current power became significantly a few times stronger than when he was in the early stage of Enlightenment. Not to mention, the golden core in his elixir field had notably grown in size, now the size of a chicken egg.

The Ancient Sacred Dragon Technique could unbelievably boost his ability to absorb spiritual energy. There would not be any bottleneck in his training if he relied on that overpowering cultivation method. Jonathan reckoned the thin spiritual energy of the world he was in was why some cultivators had stagnated on the same stage for a long while.

The corner of Jonathan’s lips curled into a faint smile at the thought of his cultivation journey becoming smooth sailing. There would no longer be any hindrance for him to break through to more advanced stages.

Ring! Ring!

Right then, his phone placed on the table nearby suddenly rang.

Jonathan slowly got up. As if he had remained still for a long time, his every move prompted his body to produce cracking sounds.

“Hello?”

“Mr. Goldstein, it’s me. Punisher is here!”

“Tell him to wait for me downstairs.”

With that, Jonathan strode out of the room.
