While Others Cultivate, I LVL UP In My Sleep Using The Dungeon System

"Did you really think that you could kill me? You might have been able to betray Elizabeth and take over the Auction House, but as soon as you aimed at me, you were bound to lose" mocked Adam as he appeared before Jaspal.

Seeing that everything was over, Chase deactivated his hardening ability and got off of Elizabeth, who he was covering, as he stood up and watched how everything would unfold.

Chase was shocked by Adam's power and speed and although was confident in his own ability, was sure that he wouldn't have been able to face so many people armed with guns without being shot once and it seemed as though Adam was able to teleport.

Meanwhile, Elizabeth was on the ground shaking in fear and with tears flooding her face as Jaspal's betrayal seemed to have hit her very hard.

The servant that she treated as an equal and trusted completely as her comrade and advisor, betrayed her and ruined everything that she had worked towards her entire life without any remorse.

Adam slowly walked over to Jaspal with blood dripping from his daggers as his killing intent soared, but despite that, Jaspal was still calm and confident as he stood before Adam proudly.

"I wouldn't kill me so quickly if I were you" warned Jaspal with an evil smile as he took his phone out of his pocket.

Adam was confused by Jaspal's actions and suddenly halted, having a bad feeling. 

He didn't know why Jaspal was so calm and confident despite all his guards being killed and that either meant that he believed he could defeat Adam or had some sort of leverage over him, which worried Adam.

"Poor Jannet. The woman really thought that a man loved her and wanted to be with her, but little did she know he was actually one of my subordinates that has kidnapped her and took her to one of my facilities" said Jaspal mockingly as he stroked the picture of Adam's aunt on his phone.

"It would be fun to play with her, she is quite good looking considering her age" stated Jaspal as he began to laugh wildly.

Adam's biggest fear had come to life and he felt as though someone had a tight grasp on his life.

"You mentioned Evil Cultivation so you must know about them as well, but unfortunately for you, they already know who you are and what your weaknesses are," said Jaspal as he walked over to Adam confidentially.

"Who are they and what do they want from me?" asked Adam who regained his composure and calmed down, trying his hardest not to kill Jaspal, knowing that his aunt would probably be killed if he did.

Jaspal shrugged and answered, "They told me to play with you and ruin your life to see what you would do and what you are capable of. They said I could do what I pleased and could even try to kill you, but I knew I wouldn't be able to do that".

"I must be honest, your power shocked me and you are growing so quickly. You tried your best to hide who you were, but the cultivation part of the government know who you are and the news will probably reach all cultivators soon, so there is no point hiding your face anymore" 

Adam thought that Jaspal wouldn't be able to do much, but he had underestimated him too much and regretted not following his aunt and acting on his bad feeling.

[I knew that it was inevitable that my identity would soon be revealed, but my power and connections right now are quite good, so I don't have much to worry about. Unless I am attacked by an Advanced Cultivator, who are usually elders or heads of families or organisations, I should be safe. However, if my aunt is killed now, what is the point] thought Adam to himself.

"What do you want?" asked Adam, knowing that until he knew that his aunt was safe, he was under Jaspal's control.

"It is simple, you will become my slave and I will never free your aunt. She will stay as my hostage, while you work for me and follow my every order. At the rate you are growing, you will lead me to become the king of the world and even they will have to submit to me" answered Jaspal.

What he wanted was too ambitious and unrealistic and he seemed to know something about the Evil Organisation that he kept indirectly mentioning, so Adam had to get that information from him after he got out of the situation he was in.

"Heh, you really think I will become your slave over my adoptive mother, you really are stupid" scoffed Adam who was very realistically acting.

Jaspal was slightly shocked by Adam's words, but still stayed calm and confident as Adam walked over to him.

"If I don't answer the call that is scheduled for 10 minutes from now, your adoptive mother will be killed straight away. Are you really willing to let her die?" stated Jaspal.

As soon as he said that, Adam smiled within his mind but his expression still stayed the same as he began to see Jaspal's plan crumbling in front of him.

[Ava, can you search for my mother?] asked Adam.

{I can, but I will be going against the system's program if I tell you} answered Ava, who wanted to, but couldn't.

[Is there no other way?] asked Adam who despite acting calm outwardly, was very scared and worried for his aunt.

If he acted immediately, he would have 10 minutes to find his aunt and save her, but it was a very risky and unrealistic plan.

With his aunt's life on the line, he couldn't be taking such risks and he couldn't think of any other way as he knew that eventually, even if he cooperated with Jaspal, his aunt would be harmed and or maybe even killed.
