Adam gave Angela Valdez an evil smile as he threatened to get rid of her, but she still showed no signs of submitting.

He wasn't using his aura, killing intent or anything else, and at that moment appeared to be an ordinary person.

Even his eyes were brown, so there was nothing remotely scary or intimidating about him, and yet his smile caused a chill down her spine.

Despite that, she still acted strong.

"You won't get rid of me and will tell me what I want," she stated.

"I do not owe you anything and am not friends with you. You point a gun at me and make outrageous demands, then claim to be fighting for the city's peace. That old lady could have lost the ability to walk or had a heart attack due to the shock you gave her by waltzing in here with a gun. " 

"Shut up, you scoundrel"

"How about I tell you the truth about your life? You feel lost and helpless to deal with cultivators who roam the world and do as they please. You say it is to maintain peace, but I believe your false sense of justice would be better used to help people in a hospital, orphanage or school. There are many other ways to help people, yet you are roaming around clutching at straws, trying to find any way to get involved in the world of cultivators"

"I don't know if it is curiosity, fascination or jealousy, but whatever it is, you are better off forgetting about it"

His words struck a nerve, but she was unable to do anything to him legally and couldn't do anything even if she wanted to, while his words had truth in them.

"I will give you three choices. I kill you. I wipe your memory and let you leave. Or I live here and place allow you to leave, but if you poke your head into my business, will kill you," said Adam.

An obsessed individual like Angela Valdez was annoying to deal with and, although her intentions weren't bad, she was entering a world that she wasn't ready for.

She didn't know how to answer or react.

Adam wasn't planning on killing her anyway as she hadn't actually done anything wrong or to him, but he was hoping she would come to her senses.

"I want to investigate cultivators and make sure they cannot run amuck in this city. If you want to kill me then do it, but I have seen and learnt a lot of things over this past year"

She was still confident in herself and had strong resolve, while she surprisingly also seemed to be sure about her purpose.

"We live in two different worlds, but I am not satisfied with maintaining the one I live in and will poke my head into yours at every chance I get"

There seemed to be no way to peacefully get her to back off.

Adam could wipe her memories about him and cultivators, but since they were deep-rooted in the front of her mind and she also felt strongly about them, it would harm her if he did so.

The Charm Skill had grown to be extremely powerful, but it was also dangerous to use against ordinary people and he didn't want to crush her mind, which she would be unable to recover from.

"It seems there is no way to get you to stop wildly getting involved with cultivators, so you win. But please stop following me and you act very entitled. I truly do not feel any way towards you or owe you. Just stop being a weird stalker"

As he said that, Adam was suddenly alerted of something and could feel 4 vehicles closing in on his location from all different directions.

They were SUVs and, from what he could sense, were bulletproof and also had 5 men in each of them that were armed with assault rifles and wearing body armour.

Along with that, he also sensed they were all early Novice Cultivators, which surprised Adam, as most cultivators wouldn't dare to act in such a way in his territory.

That left only the military or some sort of hidden organisation that controlled the government, but what did they have against him and why would they send such weak people to kill or capture him.

Adam instantly deduced the only individual that was likely to be behind it.

Major Carlson

He was previously a Major of the NYPD and was someone that acted very arrogantly towards Adam and others within the NYPD, but Adam quickly crushed his arrogance.

The Major felt as though he was above the world, but his ambitions and arrogance clouded his judgement and the righteousness that got him into that position in the first place.

After his call with Adam and argument with the NYPD Head, the Major quit his position and was given a new position in a newly formed department.

It was the cultivator defence unit that was a big part of the military and the most powerful organisation of the country.

His position wasn't very high, but it was still relatively high and he could dispatch a squad of skilled and experienced Novice Cultivators, while he also had the clearance to act independently.

"Angela, there is danger arriving. I think Major Carlson is trying to kill me," said Adam, who was still calm and relaxed.

"What do you know about him?"

Angela was shocked by what Adam said, but knew that it wasn't the time to hesitate and quickly answered his question.

She told him what she knew and that the cultivator defence unit was nurturing cultivators of their own while also researching artificial ways to modify the human body or produce weapons that can rival cultivators.

"A forgotten enemy dares to attack me so openly. Angela, you are being tracked as they wouldn't have been able to find me and you must have been watched by them, so it seems you have caught some unwanted attention"

As he said that, Adam stood up and walked out of the cafe, not wanting to bring destruction to the old lady's small cafe while he fought those that were closing in on him.
