Maniac seemed confused. "Senior, you're already a powerful Ambience level cultivator. Why would you need help from someone like me?"
"I still do," said Willbur.
Maniac was silent for a while, before putting his palms together in a bow. "Let me know how I can help you then."
His name was Maniac, but he was still level-headed enough to know when to back down in the face of someone truly powerful.
"Do you know Joel William?"
"Joel William from Viewspring Corp? Yeah, I know him."
"That's the guy I need help with."
"What do you need me to do?"
"You're going to do whatever it takes to tear down all of his territory and businesses. As long as it belongs to him, it has to be taken down. I want him to sink to rock bottom."
"Ahh…" Maniac had a troubled expression.
"What's the matter? Scared?"
Maniac frowned. "It's not that I'm scared… It's just that the authorities will get involved for sure as long as the situation's related to Joel William."
Maniac was telling the truth. Even if he was a powerful force in Anya City, he could not afford to mess with the authorities.
Wilbur smiled. "You won't have to worry about that. I promise the authorities won't be a problem. Just remember not to kill anyone unrelated. The only person I want dead is Joel."
"Got it. Do you mind telling me… what it is you have against him?"
"He killed one of my brother's parents."
"Oh…"
