Alex ran, but there wasn't any way for him to be faster than a Saint Core cultivator even if he was on the ground.
The spiritual sense slammed on Alex, and Alex barely managed to survive with his wit.
Even from so far away, the old man was nearly killing him. Nearly.
With such a difference, Alex would've died if he really wanted to. The old man most likely wanted to keep Alex alive.
The only problem was that Alex didn't know if it was to gain information from him or to torture him for killing his grandson.
Alex realized that the problem for him was worse, as it was probably both.
Alex ran and ran and ran, but just before he was about to reach his destination, the old man appeared next to him and kicked him in the stomach.
The old man had held his power, but if Alex didn't have his body or technique protecting him currently, he would most likely be vomiting out his own stomach right now. That was if it hadn't already spewed out from behind him.
