The Human Giant



 "That's a lot of money, I could use it to build a house that is strong enough that I can grow and weigh as much as I want. While still being able to live with my family."

"I could even build a training ground so I don't have to travel to a forest or the Martial Courtyard to train." Yoze's mind rapidly thought of all the ways he could improve his and his family's lives.

However, as much as Yoze wanted to take up the offer he knew that the more they were willing to give up, the more troublesome the request was. Even though beating a Blood Master wasn't hard for him he didn't want to be used without knowing what he was getting into.

What made him more suspicious was the fact that they knew that he was a scholar working for the city but they still waltzed right to him. If Yoze was a normal scholar there were only two possibilities that could happen in this scenario.

The first was that the City would immediately send a group of soldiers to apprehend them. The second was that he would have been placed under investigation and possibly arrested for the crime of colluding with the City's enemies.

For normal scholars, this noticeable visit was nearly a death sentence and would have pushed them to join the martial art sect. Yoze was not a regular scholar and thus this high-profile visit from a martial art sect wouldn't result in the City immediately cutting all ties with him.

After thinking more closely, he realized that the price of working for them wasn't as extraordinary as he thought. It was a lowball that gave the Thorn Rose Cultivation Sect much more than he would gain.

He would get 100 thousand and become a regular elder for the Thorn Rose Cultivation Sect. But the Thorn Rose Sect would have only spent 100 thousand to buy him into their ranks.

He was someone who could easily kill Blood Masters and Martial Grandmasters. For him to become an elder of a martial art sect was almost a joke. If he wanted to he could create his own martial art sect that would instantly be ranked in the top ten simply because he was in it.

There was also the fact that these elders couldn't even beat Blood Master Steel themselves. That meant that they weren't a strong sect, to begin with, so the resources that were in abundance were not as much as a large sect, and even more so compared to the City.

He might have been getting undercut by the City but as long as he wanted to he could simply jack up the price of demon meat to 100 thousand and the City would still buy it with a smile.

"Next time I plan to sell demon meat to the City, I need to charge them a premium." Making a mental note to himself, Yoze looked at the elder who spoke and gave out his answer.

"I'm sorry I'm not interested in joining your sect as an elder. If you can give me 5 Blood Master martial art sets and a Martial Grandmaster martial art set then I'll accept."

After thinking about what he wanted and needed, Yoze spat out his price. The five Blood Master martial art sets were to improve his move set.

While he wanted to get the Martial Grandmaster martial art set to avoid the situation of reaching the peak of a Blood Master and not having a Martial Grandmaster body cultivation method to break through.

He also felt that it was reasonable to assume that the Thorn Rose Cultivation Sect had at least one Martial Grandmaster martial art set that they could give him. For three of their elders to have reached the peak of the Blood Master realm signaled that their Sect Master should have reached the Martial Grandmaster realm.

Hearing Yoze's demands made the Supreme Elder's face grow cold. The other elders noticed the male elder's expression and lightly coughed to lighten the mood.

They understood that Yoze asking for their Martial Grandmaster martial art set was too much. It was fine for them to hand over the Blood Master martial art sets since they had plenty to spare.

But asking for a Martial Grandmaster martial art set from a mid-sized sect like theirs was too much. They only had one which was firmly in the hands of their sect master. Making it impossible for them to decide to hand it over to a stranger without the Sect Master's permission.

Yet their attempt to warm up the atmosphere failed miserably as the Supreme Elder's face grew colder and more furious. He even stood up and pointed at Yoze as if he had committed an unforgivable sin.

"You deserve to die for your arrogance!" The Supreme Elder gritted his teeth in anger before launching an attack straight at Yoze's vitals.

The other elders were stunned at the Supreme Elder's sudden outrage as they knew that the Supreme Elder was never this reckless and easy to anger. It even went against the fundamental code of the Thorn Rose Sect of controlling one's emotions.

"Supreme Elder Jasper stop!" The two remaining elders of the Thorn Rose Sect jumped up from their seats to stop the outraged elder.

Unfortunately, they were a step too late as the outraged Supreme Elder Jasper was an arm's length away from his target and threw a powerful punch without hesitation. Within an instant, his fist collided right with the spot Yoze's liver was located.

"Thud!"

A deep thud resounded from the impact of Supreme Elder Jasper's punch and Yoze's body. Before anyone could react to the sudden change in the situation, Yoze grabbed Supreme Elder Jasper's throat and spiritually oppressed him into submission. 

He then lifted Supreme Elder Jasper and looked straight at his eyes to see that they were turning black. Even as he was suppressing Supreme Elder Jasper, he clawed at his eyes.

"Witchcraft," Yoze looked at Supreme Elder Jasper with surprise as he didn't expect to see someone who had been corrupted by witchcraft.
