Chapter 209 - End Of The Youth 3 VS 3 Battle Part 2
Adam suddenly appeared before Cole and used the Dagger Jolt Step Skip Combo to do so, but just as he was about to slash Cole\'s throat with his daggers, suddenly froze.
Realising who he was attacking, Adam dropped his daggers and let out a sigh of relief seeing that he had regained control before he accidentally slaughtered his friend.
If he had killed Cole accidentally he didn\'t know how he would live with himself and it would have meant that everything they had fought for would have been for nothing.
Cole couldn\'t even react or do anything to defend himself from such a rapid and frightening attack. He would have been killed if Adam wasn\'t able to hold back his Bloodlust, but he still gave Adam a smile and put his fist out to fist bump him.
Seeing Cole\'s smile and fist, Adam felt relieved that everything had worked out, and was also relieved that Cole wasn\'t angry with him for almost attacking him.
However, he had used too much energy and pushed his body past his limits, so he couldn\'t lift his arm that suddenly felt too weak to fist bump Cole.
Without any danger threatening him or any hate or anger left in his heart, Adam\'s body that had been pushed past its limits through the Bloodlust characteristic, suddenly collapsed and lost consciousness.
Before Adam hit the ground, Cole caught him in his arms and placed him gently on the ground.
Adam\'s body was drenched in blood that was partly his own, but mostly that of Mason who he had slashed apart.
His red eyes, demonic mask, killing intent and Bloodlust made it so that Cole didn\'t recognise Adam as the friend that he had grown up with, but seeing how hard he was fighting for him and everything he had done to help him, he knew that the Adam he knew was still in there.
No matter what Adam changed into or became in the future, as long as some of the friend that he knew and loved was still within him, he would always be there when he needed it.
"You can rest now my friend and after you fought so hard for me, I will make sure that I repay you" vowed Cole as he stood and up and looked up at the crowd.
If an ordinary person were to spectate their battle, their figures would have barely been blurs while they moved and the power they were able to unleash would have been too overwhelming for an ordinary person to accept.
The battle was on the scale of what one would expect from a battle between Advanced Cultivators and the entire crowd was satisfied with the entertainment despite it the battle than a few minutes.
With most of the elders having accepted Cole as their next family head, after seeing what he was capable of and the connections that he had, there wasn\'t much that the great elder could do apart from curse Cole\'s existence within his mind.
Seeing everything was over the elders that were keeping up the barrier finally took it down and it had been quite draining for them to sustain even as high level Advanced Cultivators.
"I will now accept my position as the family head and will lead the family to a new and prosperous future. I have been only cultivating for a few months, yet am this capable. Believe and trust in your young family heads and I will strive for the best of the family. With my friends and connections along with our ambition, the sky is the limit for our growth and this will be a turning point for our family" declared Cole confidentially and proudly.
"My mother and her father were the previous family heads and passed on this responsibility to me. Although I love and respect them for what they were able to accomplish, I will do much more than then and this is the beginning of a more prosperous era for the Epstein Family" bellowed Cole.
The crowd began to cheer, clearly in agreement with Cole\'s words and believing in his ambition and passion, meanwhile, Angela walked over to Cole\'s side.
"I will also become the young family head of the Maxwell Family and from this point forwards our families are allied and will work together to progress and increase our power" added Angela, also wanting to get in on the glory and praise for her own accomplishments.
It was an event that would be recorded in history and would change the course of the Underground Cultivation World of New York and even the rest of the world.
William rushed down the stairs and to his son\'s side with tears in his eyes as everything had worked out exactly as him and his wife had hoped it would.
William knew that the biggest player in the battle was Adam, but Adam was the one that was unconscious and forgotten, while Cole and Angela basked in the glory of their victory without him.
However, despite both of them being grateful and both wanted to repay him for his help, they both knew that it was how Adam wanted it.
Adam wanted to stay in the shadows and the only reason he even fought in front of so many high profile cultivators was because two of his friends needed him.
William was quite a strict, distant and cold father, but that was merely because of all the emotional pain he had been through and all the hate and anger that had consumed him ever since his wife was murdered.
However, after seeing his son accomplish everything he had hoped for, he couldn\'t help but break into tears.
"Son you did it, but your friend....." said William before stopping.
Adam was a frightening being to watch battle and the killing intent and Bloodlust that he had around him during that battle was much stronger than the one that he had used to scare William.
"Don\'t worry father, he should be fine, but you were wrong previously and should try to make friends with him" reassured him Cole as he gave his father a wide smile.
