Lightning Is the Only Way

Gravis returned to the street and continued his stroll. Yet, for some reason, he felt watched. Before he had dealt with the young man, he hadn't felt like this, but now, it was very apparent.

This feeling was bizarre since Gravis was able to see everything with his Spirit. Additionally, he knew enough Laws to notice any darkness cultivator looking at him. On top of that, his Law of Danger didn't get triggered at all.

Yet, the feeling of being watched became only more intense as time passed. Gravis furrowed his brows as he tried to find the watcher. For mortals, such a feeling would most probably be just paranoia, but Cultivators had very honed instincts.

Gravis looked around, but no one else seemed to notice anything. It was only him. This probably meant that someone was specifically only looking at him.

As Gravis continued walking, the feeling only became stronger until he came to an intersection. Out of instinct, Gravis turned to his right and looked into the street.

Black eyes.

Gravis immediately locked eyes with a young man. His hair was spiky and black, and his eyes were also black. On top of that, he even wore entirely black clothes. Yet, instead of dressing in gaudy robes like everybody else, this young man wore seemingly simple clothing. The pants were made out of a fabric that a hunter would wear, while his shirt looked rather casual and comfortable.

Gravis immediately knew that this was the person watching him. Gravis also found out several other things.

First of all, the young man was standing in the middle of the street, directly looking at him with an interested smirk. The next thing Gravis noticed was that he couldn't get a read on the power of this person. This person was obviously far more powerful than him, but that didn't mean much. Gravis wasn't even able to feel the power of the more powerful Immortal Kings.

Yet, for some reason, this young man felt different from the other people.

Lastly, the person obviously intended for Gravis to notice him. If he wanted to stay hidden, Gravis wouldn't be able to notice him due to the power difference.

After narrowing his eyes, Gravis slowly walked over to the young man until he stood around two meters in front of him.

For a while, both of them only looked at each other, one with furrowed brows and the other with a smirk.

"Do you know that walking up to strangers can be dangerous?" the young man asked with a smirk.

"Not in this city, not for me," Gravis asked.
