While Others Cultivate, I LVL UP In My Sleep Using The Dungeon System

"Angela, have you ever killed someone?" asked Adam.

His sudden question shocked her and those that were close enough to hear Adam's voice and what they spoke of.

"He seems to be on close relations with the Maxwell Family Head"

"Maybe they are in some sort of relationship"

The cultivators began gossiping and conversating with themselves as they began trying to recover and gauge who exactly Adam was and everything else about them.

Adam and his friends could hear what the other cultivators were saying and were amused, while Angela didn't react to it in the slightest and was too deep in thought to be embarrassed or flustered by their words.

It was dark so apart from Adam's physique, glaring red eyes and long black hair, his appearance wasn't completely revealed and he wasn't worried about his identity being exposed, as it was already quite widely known by the government and most likely, the ancients and the evil cultivation organisation.

Although he wasn't on a level that he was a threat to them and their authority yet, he was someone to look out for and had unknown potential and capabilities that were very intriguing to observe.

"Let's go over there and talk" suggested Cole as they all walked far away from the cultivators, who after seeing their leaders walk away, were ashamed by the disrespectful and immature behaviour. 

"About your question, no I haven't killed anyone," said Angela as she looked down at the Lin Family Head that Adam had dragged along with him.

"Killing is something normal in the world of cultivation and although that doesn't justify it, one must make sure that all his enemies are dead, otherwise one will never be able to sleep at night" stated Adam.

"But if I kill, I also won't be able to sleep at night, filled with guilt. I used to think that people were mere ants, but I have changed and can't take a life" she refuted.

"Then you are not ready for the leadership position that you are in and are too immature. It is not about taking a life, but saving many and your own. If you don't kill your enemies, for example, this bastard that I am carrying, he is sure to come back after you and in the process kill many of your subordinates. You are too mentally weak and should step down from your position"

Adam's words were cruel, but were true and although he was a playful and relaxed individual at times, he was also very serious and brutally honest with his friends.

Cole wanted to defend her out of pity and wondered whether he could also kill, however he knew that Adam was right, while Elizabeth, Chase and Wayde had all killed and were willing to kill again.

"Killing doesn't make you a monster and you are only as guilty as you feel. I don't feel a shred of guilt for anyone I have killed and if you stand in my way, that is the only thing you can expect. If you cannot understand that, you are in for a rude awakening"

Adam dropped the Lin Family Head in front of her before saying, "He killed your grandfather, and yet you are afraid and unable to kill him. He has, directly and indirectly, caused the death of thousands and committed many sins and crimes, allowing his subordinates to do as they please and reap havoc, and yet you still can't muster the courage to kill him. Pathetic"

"I really believed that you had improved, but I guess...." 

Before Adam could continue what he was saying, Angela suddenly formed a blade out of water and stabbed it into the Lin Family Head and after stabbing him once, began continuously stabbing him and screaming, letting out all her pent up emotions. 

"Calm down, that is enough, he is already dead. I guess you are as amazing as I expected and this is the first step for you to become a true leader and cultivator. Death will happen all around you, but do not worry, I will carry the burden of all the death occurring as the Secret Leader, Protector and Hunter of the Sentinels Faction" 

Adam pulled her off the Lin Family Head's body before giving her a reassuring hug.

"I will be lifting the morale of the cultivators and giving them a small speech, before leaving. I will meet you guys again tomorrow after you clean up this mess and I would rather stay secret and not be seen by the faction members unless there is an emergency or special occasion" stated Adam.

He pushed Angela off him and gave her a smile, whispering into her ear that she had impressed him and was worthy of being the Maxwell Family Head.

"You two can make a decision now and that decision will affect the power scales of this country greatly. Would you like to join under the Sentinels Faction and be absorbed by it, or stay as separate entities that are allied with the faction?" asked Adam.

Adam had no intention of exploiting or forcing his friends to do anything they didn't want to, but he was planning to expand his faction as much as possible and they could either be subsidiaries to the faction, affiliated with it, or completely absorbed by it.

"I have great ambitions and you are my friends, so I will support you when I can, but I can't stop or slow down now after the progress speed that has been built onboard. Either way, your choice doesn't affect me much and Elizabeth and Chase, any issues you may have with the faction can be solved with me tomorrow. I will spend the entire day observing the state of the faction and filling in any holes" said Adam before turning around to speak to the cultivators.

"Wait Adam, I want to tell you something and go with you," said all of them at once.

Adam stopped and was curious as to what they had to say and their reason for wanting to go with him, as all 5 of them had requested for Adam to stop.
