However, he could not tell the old man the truth because he had to keep his identity a secret.
What surprised Joe himself was the fact that his strength seemed to have improved a lot.
It seemed as though his combat effectiveness was several times deadlier than usual.
This must be the effect of the Apocalyptic Book.
Not only that, Joe could also feel the reiki from the pebble that he had bought earlier flowing into his body. He could feel that his overall physical fitness had improved tremendously.
The crowd could not help but cheer as they were all in awe of Joe.
He was such a skillful fighter, anyone would have thought that he had learnt how to fight professionally. Who would have expected that he had actually learned how to fight by watching a television program!
He must be really talented!
“You got your fighting skills by watching a television program!?” Zachary exclaimed with his eyes wide open. Zachary quickly ran up to Joe before asking, “Brother, can I ask which channel or television program you learned it from? I want to learn how to fight, too.”
Joe looked at Zachary before he replied curtly, “The sports channel, quack!”
The crowd believed Joe and all of them really wanted to go home to check out the sports channel immediately.
The expression on Mr. Quinton’s face was hideous right then, and after keeping silent for a short while, he finally regained his senses.
This was embarrassing!
The bodyguards he had hired and paid so much money for were all professional fighters that he had specifically recruited to protect him. Who would have expected…
Who would have expected a young boy who came from nowhere to actually defeat all of these professional fighters, just by watching a television program?
Mr. Quinton was not a professional fighter, and so, he did not know that Joe was actually very skillful. However, his bodyguards were not stupid.
They knew that he was an expert as soon as he laid hands on them.
Even though Joe was very humble, his moves were very deadly even when he did not use any strength at all.
He was not someone they could easily defeat.
Hence, the bodyguards did not step forward, but instead, they looked at Joe with a curious expression on their faces.
Jacob, who was watching from the sidelines, did not know anything about fighting, and so, he merely assumed that Joe was simply lucky and that he was just a little more robust than the bodyguards. Jacob did not know that Joe’s moves, were in fact, very professional and skilled.
Joe smiled at Mr. Quinton as he asked, “So, are you coming to get me yourself, then?”
“You! Don’t come over!”
Mr. Quinton was so intimidated that he was breaking out in cold sweat. He subconsciously took a few steps back.
When Joe saw how frightened he was, he took a few steps forward and walked toward him.
Mr. Quinton stared at him in horror as he continued backing away.
If Joe threw him to the ground the way he had thrown one of his bodyguards earlier, he would definitely be hospitalized for another half a month!
Suddenly, a black BMW turned in from the corner of the street before parking not too far away.
The driver got out of the car before opening the car door for the owner of the vehicle.
Mr. Quinton was overjoyed when he saw the person who had just arrived in the black BMW. “Sister! Someone is bullying and threatening to beat me up! Come and save me!”
Joe raised his head, and he could see the crowd making way for a woman dressed in black, tight- fitting sportswear as she walked toward them.
The tight-fitting sportswear outlined the woman’s figure perfectly, and she had a very fierce and heroic face.
“That’s Adam Quinton’s sister! Aurora Quinton!” Someone in the crowd suddenly yelled in shock before there was an uproar in the crowd.
Adam pleaded once again, “Sister, this young boy is threatening to beat me up! Please help me teach him a lesson.”
After Aurora approached the both of them, she glanced at the bodyguards who were lying on the ground before glaring at Joe with a cold expression on her face. “Were you the one who beat them up?
Joe replied flatly, “So, what if I did? What is wrong with that?”
Aurora sneered before she replied, “I want you to apologize to my brother immediately!”
“What if I refuse to do so?”
“Then, I will beat you up until you apologize to him!”
Before she had even finished her sentence, Aurora had already raised her leg to kick Joe in the face.
Joe was taken aback because it seemed as though this woman’s fighting skill was much better compared to the previous bodyguards that he had fought.
Her kick was very powerful and fast, and it seemed as though she was a professional fighter.
Adam looked at this scene before saying, “My sister will definitely kick your ass!”
His sister had been training on how to fight for many years. She was a very professional fighter who was very skillful and talented, and not many people could defeat her if they were to engage in a fight with her.
However, Adam’s eyes suddenly widened at the very next moment.
”Too weak!”
Joe became furious and moved aside in an instant as he tried to avoid her kick. After that, he lifted his leg and kicked Aurora straight on her ass, causing her to fall to the ground.
Adam’s jaw almost dropped to the ground as he stared at the scene before him. He muttered to himself, “This… how could this be possible?!”
Aurora was feeling even more embarrassed. Ever since she had started fighting, she had never felt more humiliated than this. Moreover, the spot that Joe had kicked her on was way too embarrassing!
Filled with anger as she stood up, Aurora prepared to rush toward Joe and attack him immediately. She had already decided that this bastard would definitely pay the price for his actions today!
“Aurora, stop what you are doing! Do not be rude to Mr. Smith.”
Just then, a middle-aged man suddenly ran up to her and grabbed hold of Aurora’s hand.
Aurora, still utterly embarrassed, yelled, “Dad! Get out of my way! I’m going to kill him!”
‘How dare he? Who gave him the guts to actually kick me in the ass? My ass is hurting now because of him!’
“Shut up!”
The middle-aged man yelled as he glared at Aurora.
After that, he walked toward Joe with a humble expression on his face. After taking a deep breath, he spoke respectfully. “Mr. Smith, we meet again. I am really sorry about my daughter and son who are incapable of behaving themselves. I will get them to apologize to you and I will definitely ask them to reflect on themselves when we get home later.”
Aurora and Adam were stunned as they watched the scene play out in disbelief.
Aurora’s father was a very important and well-respected person in Aurous Hill, so why was he being so polite toward this young man?
