After arranging matters for Kate, Peter returned home, as his college enrollment time was also near. The thought of becoming a college student excited him.
Peter Brown was pondering the events as he drove.
He certainly hadn’t anticipated Phoenix’s attitude. He had always treated people sincerely, and he knew he hadn’t been wrong in dealing with Phoenix. But it seemed that deep down, she’d felt superior and had never respected him for being born to a farmer.
Peter Brown had many methods to deal with Phoenix Taylor, including simply wiping her out. But he didn’t want to do that now. After all, this was a time of the rule of law, and killing didn’t seem like a good idea.
The most outrageous thing was that they’d even applied for a patent.
He’d sort that out once he got back!
As Peter was pondering this, suddenly, he saw a car appear in front of him. Another one squeezed in from behind.
It was only when he braked, he realized he’d driven to the road leading to the village, surrounded by two SUVs.
Looking around, the road was not busy and not many people were around.
Two persons got out of the car in front and two more from the car in the rear.
All four men exuded a powerful aura.
Seeing this, Peter was taken aback. It was remarkable to meet such figures here. Undoubtedly, they were here for him.
As he got out of the car, Peter also discreetly activated his protective talisman.
"You are Peter Brown, right?"
A middle-aged man from the rear car looked at Peter.
Qi Refining Fourth Level!
Seeing this man’s cultivation level, Peter was once again surprised.
"Good you are here. Didn’t waste our time all this while waiting for you. We are here to tell you. Let Phoenix Taylor be. Considering you saved Henry Martin’s life, we won’t hassle you."
Peter’s eyes narrowed, and he looked at the four individuals again.
"Who are you exactly?"
"Henry Martin is from the Western Gibson family. He is beyond your paygrade. Phoenix Taylor has taken over your wine business. Let her have it. From now on, if you interfere with her company’s progress, don’t blame us for being impolite!"
"Brother, we should just ruin his Elixir Sea. That should keep him from creating trouble."
"That’s right. Just destroy his Elixir Sea. We can’t let him affect Henry’s return to the family."
The four men talked among themselves, ignoring Peter completely.
Peter was speechless at how these men openly discussed rendering him useless.
In the Cultivation World, that was equivalent to permanently banishing a cultivator into the mortal world. Peter had struggled to find this opportunity. Would he really let it go?
At this point, Peter figured it out. It really was the Western Gibson family as Adonis Harrison had said and they attacked quicker than he had expected.
It was indeed true, show weakness and people will take advantage of you!
Peter had not planned on directly battling the Gibson family . Now they wanted to ruin him, but they would have to see if they could succeed. Killing intent flashed in his eyes.
"Hehe, you’re only at the Qi Refining Second Layer. Don’t struggle in vain, it’s pointless. We have a Qi Refining Fourth Level, two Qi Refining Third Level, and a Qi Refining Second Level between us. Even if you had mighty abilities, it wouldn’t suffice!"
The four men took on a posture of certainty.
The power comparison was clear, and everyone understood the outcome. The four men seemed casual and indifferent. In their view, handling this matter was too easy.
Peter Brown took out his handgun from his ring, ready to kill now. Whoever wanted to ruin him would have to prove they could!
Seeing Peter pull out a gun, the four men burst into laughter, one saying, "Using a gun, hehe!"
"Useless. If you let us destroy your Elixir Sea peacefully, you can still live like a wealthy man. After all, you did save Henry Martin. But if you’re thinking of resisting, not only will you die, your family will die too!"
The leading man’s murderous aura intensified.
When they tried to involve his family, Peter’s killing intent grew stronger.
Peter didn’t waste more words. Pointing at the Qi Refining Fourth level man, he said, "Is the Gibson family so great?".
As he spoke, he fired.
With the sound of a gunshot, the expert’s face broke into a smile, saying: "Useless...." He reached out to catch the bullet - for a cultivator like him, catching a bullet was no arduous task.
However, as soon as he finished speaking, his expression changed. His hand, extended to catch the bullet, was penetrated, and the bullet shot through his forehead. He fell down heavily.
He didn’t stop attacking as the man fell. He knew the others were experts too, and now the only thing he could do was kill them quickly.
Peter fired two shots at the remaining three.
The Talisman bullet was Peter’s hidden weapon. With the enemies off-guard, Peter killed them with the Talisman bullets.
The Gibson family were very arrogant. These four were sent on the family’s orders to protect Phoenix’s wine factory. The Gibson family had calculated that if the winery expanded, it would yield huge profits.
Although the four knew that Peter was at the Qi Refining Stage and comparatively capable, they didn’t seriously investigate his situation. This carelessness cost them their lives. Peter was battle-seasoned and attacked while they were talking. After each gunshot, the four fell down without exception.
Looking at the four men lying on the ground, Peter snorted and activated his ring, sucking the men and their cars into the ring. Seeing nobody around, he drove away rapidly.
Peter was satisfied with this fight, having taken out four experts by surprise.
He didn’t expect that Gibson Family valued a winery this much. After this incident, he realized that the Gibson family wouldn’t let this matter rest.
