Invincible! This person has lived for a billion years

Chapter 138 Just having a brief chat.

Christopher's analytical ability had always been strong. According to his logic, William must be the offspring of his father's good friend, potentially someone with some abilities, possibly being considered as a husband candidate for the Carter family's daughter.

Maybe the older generation had some special agreements.

But to Christopher, all these things were unimportant.

Now, he was the head of the Carter family. If Lila did not like William, then as her father, it was his duty to make decisions for her.

An engagement?

If his father, Anthony Carter, insisted on having Lila marry William, he wouldn't mind making William disappear from this world.

Could his father, Anthony Carter, go to the extent of breaking his own legs?

Christopher's bodyguard stood there, smiling at William: "Young man, I'll allow you three moves. If you manage to hit me, consider it your win."

He had already investigated William, who was nothing more than an ordinary person.

He might know some martial arts and body techniques, but in front of a Soulmancer, those so-called martial arts were completely useless.

William smiled, "Give me three moves? I'm up for that."

Christopher also said, "That works. Go ahead."

"You can make your move." Christopher's bodyguard didn't take William seriously at all.

William thought for a moment; the person in front of him was just a bit stronger than the average person. Since he was trying to minimize his power, practicing wouldn't hurt.

He slowly clenched his fist. The two were only two meters apart when he aimed a punch at Christopher's bodyguard.

Indeed, William had controlled his power to the weakest level, but when he threw the punch, a force that distorted space naturally emanated, impossible to avoid.

Even though this space-distorting force was extremely weak, it was definitely not something a junior Soulmancer could dodge.

The moment William threw his punch, Christopher's bodyguard only felt the world turn into nothingness, as if there was only that punch left in the world.

There was no escape!

No avoidance!

Originally, he had imagined at least a dozen graceful poses to dodge William's attack, but at this moment, he didn't even have the strength to protect his chest.

"Bang!"

Christopher's bodyguard stood there stupidly, like a sandbag, flown away with one punch from William, crashing into the wall. The wall cracked open centering on him.

"Sorry, I might have gone a bit overboard. Are you okay?" William glanced at the Soulmancer, genuinely worried he might have accidentally killed the man.

"Cough! Cough!" Christopher's bodyguard coughed up blood, his face pale and ghastly.

"Let's go again; I was careless just now, I didn't dodge! Now I'm serious."

"Let's do it again!" William told himself secretly that he had to be gentler this time; he was almost able to control his power just right.

At that moment, Christopher's phone rang; he could no longer discern the extent of William's strength.

What exactly was William's background?

He wasn't a Soulmancer, yet he managed to send a junior Soulmancer flying with a single punch.

He picked up the phone to see that it was his father, Anthony Carter, who had called.

Christopher did not stop the confrontation between William and the others, and after taking the call, he asked, "Dad, what's the matter?"

From the other end, Anthony Carter asked coldly, "I heard you visited Mr. Johnson? Didn't I warn you? Stay away from him!"

"I just came to take a look."

"Even just taking a look is not allowed! Come back immediately!" Anthony Carter couldn't help but worry. The descendants of the Carter family, namely Ryan, had already offended William. If Christopher offended William too, they would really be done for.

Lila is a girl, and given William's disposition, he likely wouldn't get overly angry with a woman, and even if Lila did something wrong in his presence, William wouldn't do anything excessive to a girl.

If something were to happen to Christopher and Ryan, the entire Carter family would be ruined.

"I... have already seen it," Christopher said, swallowing hard, unable to believe the gravity of the situation as he watched his bodyguard being sent flying yet again.

A tense silence lingered on Anthony Carter's end before he asked, "You haven't been disrespectful to Mr. Johnson, have you?"

"I..." Christopher gritted his teeth, "I had Miles spar with him."

Anthony Carter now sincerely wished to break his foolish son's legs himself as he roared furiously, "Christopher! Haven't I told you not to provoke him? Didn't I tell you to show the utmost respect when you meet him? How dare you let someone spar with him? How did I end up with such a foolish son?"

Christopher had no retort, particularly since his bodyguard Miles had fallen for the third time, and this time he couldn't get back up.

Could it be that William's strength was at least above that of a junior Soulmancer?

"Is Miles dead?"

"He should... not be," Christopher was now unsure of his bodyguard's fate, seeing him lie there motionless.

"Don't worry! He isn't dead!" William approached Christopher, extending his hand, "Give me the phone."

Christopher handed over the phone to William, too stunned to refuse.

"Tony, it's me," William shouted into the phone.

Christopher nearly fainted. Tony?

Tony?!

William was actually calling his elderly father Tony?

Anxious, Anthony Carter said, "Master, my son Christopher was unaware of your identity, I beg you not to take his actions to heart."

"I won't take it to heart," William said, "But tell your son to stop bothering me in the future. As for your grandchildren, they're not bad."

"Thank you, Master!" A huge weight was lifted off Anthony Carter's chest. Even though he had lived with William for over a decade, he still wasn't clear about William's temperament. Sometimes it seemed that William was quite tempered, but he had also witnessed William wipe out enemies with a wave of his hand.

The Taylor family was a prime example. They had now sold all their properties and had moved to a small village to live in seclusion.

"You can explain it to your son. Right now, I am just an ordinary person. He doesn't need to tell Lila and others anything about me," William said before handing the phone back to Christopher.

Christopher was utterly stunned, the way William had addressed his father still echoing in his head.

From the sounds of it, even his father had to refer to himself as a junior in front of William.

William waved towards the unconscious bodyguard who began to stir, regaining consciousness slowly.

"I'll take my leave now," said William, opening the door to the private room without looking back.

Lucy and Lila were waiting outside anxiously. Seeing William emerge unscathed, Lucy hurriedly stepped forward asking, "William, are you okay?"

Lila moved a step forward but halted, only watching William.

William had only been inside for a few minutes during which three loud noises had been heard. David had thought that William might have been badly beaten up.

"I'm fine," William, not wishing to reveal his true identity, said, "We just had a simple chat."
