The man that had previously tried to rob Adam in the alleyway had no idea what Adam had in store for him, but one thing was for sure, he was lucky not to be beaten to the verge of death already.
Resorting to petty cri, and not knowing that Adam was a powerful cultivator could have gotten him seriously injured, arrested or even killed, so whatever Adam was planning, it couldn't be too bad.
Right?
Adam lifted the man up in the air with one very easily, which surprised the man, but also wasn't that amazing as even Novice Cultivators could accomplish such a feat.
"Where do you live?" asked Adam while carrying him with one hand.
"Um.. not far from here," answered the man, not wanting to give his exact address away to Adam.
However, with a simple glare from him, he couldn't refuse to do answer Adam's question and told him exactly where he lived and prayed that he didn't do anything to his mother.
Adam had a good idea of the area already and quickly found the location that the man spoke of, and dragged him there, holding onto his arm and forcing him to walk quickly.
The man was unable to tell what exactly Adam's intentions were, but whatever they were, he was helpless to stop them, so just gave in.
Reaching where he lived, it was a rundown building and outside there were three large thugs that were flaunting the short blades on their sides so openly. They had tall and muscular physiques and were tattooed all over.
Imdiately upon seeing them, the man that had previously attempted to rob Adam was shaking uncontrollably and tried to escape Adam's grip, more afraid of them than Adam.
Adam seed to be lenient and despite being evil, was unknown to him, but those three n were known for their ruthlessness in the area and were a part of the Black Dragon Gang that dominated the region.
Anyone that opposed the Black Dragon Gang would be crushed, and they were like kings in their territory. The man that was unable to escape Adam's grip on his arm, Liao Wei, began to weep and felt as though he was face to face with death.
He owed those three n quite a lot of money, and with their extortionate interest rates, were there to take his kidneys and anything else they could salvage from his body to get the money they are owed.
Loan sharks.
So of the cruellest and evil people that would exploit vulnerable and desperate people, and would get away with their cris a lot of the ti. Adam previously had his fair share of exchanges and problems with all sorts of loan sharks, but managed to get away unhard and repaid them their money, then made sure never to contact them again.
However, a lot of the ti, most people weren't that lucky, and even if one repaid the money they needed to, a lot of ti, they would still be hounded by the loan sharks and forced to pay even more money.
Once one was in their trap, life would beco hell and Adam pitied the man that tried to rob him even more.
"What's your na?" asked Adam, realising he was yet to ask his na.
"My na is Liao Wei. C-Could you please let go and get away from those people?" answered Liao Wei before pleading with Adam to let go of him.
Adam smiled and told him to calm down.
"You don't have to worry. I will sort it out for you, just relax and straighten your back. Stop being such a baby," said Adam as he slapped his back and got Liao Wei to stand more confidently.
Liao Wei couldn't understand what Adam was thinking in the slightest and thought that he was just crazy, but he seed to be wanting to help him, so he wasn't too bad.
However, despite his good intentions, Liao Wei was even more frightened about how things would turn out and knew that when it ca to combat power, the Black Dragon Gang were not to be ssed with.
"Please, please just forget about it. If you try to fight them, they will kill us and target my mother," he begged as he tried to stop Adam from going over to the three n, but it was like trying to stop a bulldozer.
Adam turned around and gave him a reassuring smile.
"I won't cause any trouble, I will rely pay them back. I can't let them harm the man that still owes for trying to rob ," said Adam, who was amused by what was going on and had been in situations like these too many tis to count.
Tis where he would be underestimated and nobody knew who he was, in which he would help soone that reminded him of how he was in the tis before gaining the Dungeon System.
For so reason, despite not knowing Adam or anything about him, Liao Wei weirdly trusted him and couldn't understand why he suddenly felt like following and listening to Adam.
It was because of Adam's high Charisma Stat, which he didn't conceal for a mont in order to get Liao Wei to calm down and confide in him.
Letting go of Liao Wei, knowing that he would no longer attempt to run away and would trust him, Adam walked over to the three large n with Liao Wei following closely behind him.
Seeing Liao Wei coming towards them and so confidently, following behind Adam, the three thugs laughed, seeing Adam as a re ant that they could also crush.
In their own territory, those in the Black Dragon Gang felt invincible, and they were there to collect Liao Wei's debt or take him with them, however, their luck had run out.
Adam had decided to help out Liao Wei, which ant the entire Black Dragon Gang was in danger, with Adam hating those that exploited the vulnerable, weak and desperate.
