Inside Peter Brown’s altered cultivation room, there was a surveillance system, which he had purchased back on Earth. Now, the entire Spirit Field was being monitored by this system.
Of course, the surveillance equipment wasn’t like the ones on Earth. For Peter Brown, a Master Refiner, modifying it was easy. On the surface, it looked just like a set of plants and trees. Moreover, the system didn’t employ divine sense for monitoring, thus even cultivators wouldn’t sense anything.
Ever since Peter improved the power supply with electricity, the surveillance system could function here.
Each location had a signal reception point set up. Peter could monitor the entire Spirit Field while sitting in his house.
After killing that old man, Peter was observing the crime scene. What he needed to determine was whether the culprit was sent by Zariah Nelson or not.
Sure enough, after observing for a half day, a man appeared there.
Although the man seemed casual, Peter knew that he was looking for clues.
Upon closer inspection, Peter realized that he had seen this man before, standing behind Zariah Nelson last time.
It surely was someone Zariah Nelson had sent!
Upon seeing the corpse of the old man, the man’s face turned pale. With a wave of his hand, he stored the corpse in his ring, and left quickly.
After making this discovery, a murderous look appeared in Peter’s eyes. If the Nelson Family was still persisting, then he might as well kill a few more of their people.
After thinking for a while, Peter took out the items he had acquired from the old man.
The large sword was the old man’s weapon. Even though it was a magic treasure, it was not much use to Peter, but he could sell it for cultivation coins.
After placing the sword aside and removing the imprint of the old man’s divine sense from his ring, it suddenly opened up.
When he looked inside, there wasn’t much in there, just a jade slip and a few spirit stones.
How could this old man be so poor!
Peter originally thought he would strike it rich, but didn’t expect such an outcome.
When he examined the jade slip, Peter found a set of sword techniques.
After scrutinizing the techniques, Peter shook his head and put down the jade slip. Whoever this old man was, these sword techniques were certainly not as good as the legacy Peter himself had received. They were simply useless to him.
With a sigh, Peter picked up the spirit stones and casually tossed them into his ring.
It appeared the old man had another stash. His good items should be there.
Right, the old man had an identity card!
Peter searched within the ring for a while, but couldn’t find it.
What a seasoned criminal, not carrying anything while out on a job!
Without choice, Peter didn’t gain much this time.
However, with the help of two formations, Peter had managed to immediately kill a mid-phase Foundation Establishment cultivator. That was indeed a gain.
While Peter was sighing, Zariah Nelson was shaking in shock.
"What did you say? Dead?"
"Yes, when I arrived, I only found his corpse. All his items were gone. The corpse was found at the boundary, not in the Spirit Field of Skyreach Mountain that Peter is responsible for."
"Do you think Peter did it?"
"Elder, Remy is at the mid-phase of Foundation Establishment. There’s a huge gap in cultivation between him and Peter. It’s absolutely impossible for Peter to kill him!"
Zariah Nelson nodded slightly, he too couldn’t believe Peter was capable of killing an expert like Remy.
"Father, I’ll go kill him!" Just then, a beautiful girl walked in.
When Zariah Nelson saw the beautiful girl, his expression eased a bit and he asked, "Dahlia, why are you back?"
"Father, David is in trouble. Of course I had to come back!"
"It’s not a big deal. Your studies are more important. Competition in the Shire is fierce."
"Don’t worry, my spiritual roots are excellent, and cultivation is very fast. I’ve already reached the mid-phase of Foundation Establishment now."
Zariah Nelson was proud of his daughter. In her twenties, she had reached the mid-phase of Foundation Establishment. She was truly a Daughter of Heaven.
"Father, I really want to see what kind of person called Peter can dare to oppose our Nelson Family, and even beat David to such a state!"
"I can’t figure out that guy. Initially, I recruited Remy secretly to kill him, but unexpectedly, Remy ended up dead!"
"Could it have been Peter?"
Zariah Nelson shook his head, "That’s what puzzles me. How did Remy suddenly die there?"
"No need to worry. If he dares to oppose our Nelson Family, we can just kill him."
After speaking with her father, Dahlia left the room.
Being a beautiful girl, she naturally had many admirers. Once she stepped outside, she saw five handsome guys waiting.
"Susan, what’s the matter with your younger brother? Someone dared to hit him? Don’t worry, as Jean Thomas, I will definitely avenge you!" An elegant young man, fully equipped with magical treasure level gear, confidently said.
"Geoffrey, thank you very much."
Upon seeing Dahlia’s smile, the other four became anxious. Each began pledging their help.
Seeing these young masters so eager to help, Dahlia felt pleased. Even though they had respectable family backgrounds, they were still attracted to her.
"Elder brothers, I thank each of you for taking the long journey to help. I just met with father and he is still unhappy about this. This was done by someone known as Peter from the academy. This time, I must take revenge for David."
"Just a small county. No big deal. I, Manuel Reed, will take care of this!"
"Manuel, thank you very much."
"Susan, we should not violate the rules of the academy, lure the guy out, then it will be easier to kill him."
"Geoffrey, I already have a plan. There will be a task for him to leave the academy, we can lead him out and kill him then!"
"Once he leaves the academy, he is as good as dead!"
The young masters didn’t see Peter as a threat. For them, nurtured with their family’s elixirs and having reached the high stage of foundation establishment, a small Qi refining stage student was not a match for them.
