A Cultivation Tale: The Godly Punisher

"Yea. That's exactly why I couldn't give you one which is higher than your cultivation level. You wouldn't be able to withstand the aura of power that would emanate from it. But since you said it's nice. It's nice then. It's however really cool that you could understood" Alex said in a praising tone while Nailah chuckled and basked in the praise that Alex showered upon her.

Alex then continued "Well, to prevent yourself from having to teleport here and there very fast in the face of danger, I ask that you stay put in the academy. The academy would offer you some level of protection than out there outside the academy where you would have to fully rely on the quick, small-distance teleportation power of the armor if you ever come face to face with danger. I only gave you that necklace just so you would be more safer within the academy, as those bastards could send someone to infiltrate the academy to come eliminate you if they discover that you are my sister."

"I perfectly understand brother. I won't go anywhere else outside the academy until when when you say it's safe to go out. I would only listen to you. Besides, since I would fully dedicate myself to cultivation, where the heck would I want to go to?" Nailah said.

"Good!" Alex answered.

Then he turned to face Olivia who asked him "What's the cultivation level of this new enemy of yours?"

"Peak Saint stage" Alex replied.

"Oh!" Olivia exclaimed in shock.

"I was hoping we could take them down together. Anyways, it's your thing. Have fun with them." Olivia said with a smile in her face.

Alex smirked at her.

Then he said "Till I tell you it's safe to go out, you and Nailah should never leave the institution. Am I understood?"

"Yes, dear. Perfectly" Olivia replied.

Olivia then looked at the spatial ring that Alex gave her and asked "Do I have anything like what you gave Nailah?"

"Yes. It's also a necklace. Check it out" Alex said.

Then Olivia looked into the ring.

When she saw a beautiful necklace that was adorned with sparkling gems, she smiled and conjured it out.

When the necklace appeared in her hand, it began to glitter beautifully in the light of the sun that entered her room.

"So beautiful" She said in a soft whispering tone.

Then she wore it on her neck and sent a wisp of her perception into it.

Immediately she did so, a small amount of information entered her head.

"Hmm" Olivia uttered and smiled at Alex.

"Thanks for the necklace" She said while Alex rolled his eyes at her.

"I have to go now, Olivia. I would visit you beautiful creatures some other time" Alex suddenly said.

"What?! But Alex, you just arrived here" Olivia said with slight fury in her eyes.

"I know, Olivia. But I have to go meet Layla too and give her some protective treasures before she would step out of her office or palace to do some things." Alex said in an urgent tone.

"Okay. Alright, go see her. And make sure you deliver my good greetings to her" Olivia said.

Alex was surprised at the way Olivia spoke.

It was like she and Layla were good friends.

He wanted to ask why she didn't become angry at hearing Layla's name. But he decided against it in the end as he didn't want to use his question to wake a slumbering, raging dragon.

Olivia then came forward to hug him. She then kissed him on the lips and released him from her embrace a few seconds later.

"Nailah" Alex said.

"Yes? big brother" Nailah stopped what she was doing and stood to go meet Alex.

Then when she got in front of Alex, Alex gently squeezed her nose and said "Little sis, I am leaving."

Immediately Nailah heard that, she squeezed her face. She had suddenly become unhappy at what her brother, Alex, said.

"Hey, come on sis. Don't ruin your beautiful face with that unhappy expression. I am only going for a moment, not for very long as you might be beginning to think. I promise to check on you some other time. And anytime I come to check on you, we might leave together to go on an exciting adventure" Alex said.

It was only after Alex said this that Nailah's face brightened up.

"Yea, that's my girl" Alex said as he played with her cheeks.

Alex then looked at Olivia and nodded at her.

Then his body vanished in an instant and reappeared in the treasure-palace which had remained afloat in the air since Alex arrived in Olivia's room.

Immediately after Alex's body surfaced in a hall in the treasure-palace, the treasure-palace shot at extreme speed towards Layla's organization.

***

Few hours later, the treasure-palace arrived at the Imperial Herb House.

And since Alex had been here before, he navigated his way around in the treasure-palace till he got to Layla's office.

Then the treasure-palace teleported into her office with Alex appearing out of it some seconds later.

Immediately Alex appeared, Layla who was busy going through the business records of her organization looked up in shock to see who just appeared in her office.

But when she saw Alex, she asked "Alex? What are you doing here? And why did you come in this manner?"

Alex approached her with a smile and said "I am sorry if I had startled you with the way I suddenly appeared in your office."

"It's okay. But what is the reason why?" Layla asked in a perplexed tone.

"Some days ago, I told you that I was going to figure out the people who were behind the exposure of our secrets to the public. Yea. I have discovered who the bastards are."
