I Am Unstoppable novel

Chapter 51 Blackmail

The group of gangsters looked intimidating with steel pipes in their hands.

Behind Jonathan, Jennifer blanched in horror upon witnessing such a situation. Even though she knew

that Jonathan was a strong man, she still felt that he was totally outnumbered.

Jonathan was the first to speak. “Don’t you dare do anything stupid. I’m pretty strong, you know. Come

forward, and I’ll kick all of your asses.”

“Hahaha!” The gangsters found it funny, thinking Jonathan was trying to put up a strong front.

However, Jonathan was not faking it.

Douglas shot Jonathan a disdained look. “Who do you think you are? You want to fight ten of them

alone?”

Jonathan chuckled. “I’m better than that. I can handle twenty of them by myself.”

Douglas burst into laughter. “What an idiot!” After a short pause, his eyes turned cold as he shouted,

“Beat him up!”

With his command, the gangsters lifted their steel pipes high and rushed forward. They intended to kill

Jonathan with the steel pipes.

Jennifer could not help but shut her eyes while her mind went blank.

However, Jonathan merely gave a cold sneer and made his move. In Jonathan’s eyes, the gangsters

were moving too slowly. With a battle cry, he whipped out a flurry of attacks. It took him only a split

second to land thirty-six kicks.

The flurry of kicks was not random. In fact, it was a technique from the northern martial arts world,

known as Thirty-six Springing Kicks.

The kicks were so powerful that even the strongest men feared them.

Jonathan’s kicks were faster than Phantom Kick from Fairlake. In a blink of an eye, painful cries filled

the air as a dozen of the gangsters were sent flying.

The others could not figure out what had just happened and continued rushing forward.

Jonathan imitated the moves from action movies, taking down anyone who came forward. No matter

how many of them came at once, he took all of them down.

His attacks happened at such tremendous speed that the gangsters could not even see them clearly.

At that moment, Jennifer opened her eyes. She saw how Jonathan took down the gangsters, one by

one, right in front of her eyes.

Yvette was equally dumbfounded by Jonathan’s performance. Her eyes sparkled as she exclaimed,

“Wow! He’s stronger than the heroes in the movies.”

Suddenly, the two remaining gangsters swung their pipes down at Jonathan. Jonathan swiftly hit an

arm, causing one of the gangsters to drop his pipe. The former grabbed the steel pipe in fashion and

struck the gangster’s forehead. Blood gushed out from the gangster’s head as he screamed and

retreated. Jonathan was precise with his strength. He did not damage the man’s skull but only hurt the

skin of his forehead.

The other guy came rushing toward Jonathan with his pipe. With some quick moves, Jonathan

immediately took the pipe away from the gangster.

Jonathan spun the pipe in his hands smoothly like an acrobat, and he looked overwhelmingly cool

doing that. The gangster was stunned. With that, Jonathan swiftly sent him flying with a kick.

After his performance, Jonathan turned to look at Stuart and Douglas.

He chuckled. “How was it? I didn’t lie to you, right?”

Douglas turned pale and stammered, “What do you want?”

Jonathan’s expression turned cold as he took a few steps forward. Then, without warning, he struck

Stuart’s arm heavily with a steel pipe. Stuart instantly cried in pain as he held onto his arm. His arm

bone had already shattered. “You’ve insulted my mother. That’s a little warning for you,” Jonathan said

coldly.

Stuart had said words that disrespected his mother, and he would never forget that. Even though

Jonathan had never met his mother, he would not allow anyone to disgrace her.

Jonathan would never attack anyone just for fun. He was a man who would seek revenge. Douglas

grew even more afraid upon witnessing that. Jonathan sneered and said, “He insulted my mom and

lost an arm. Now, you want to sleep with my woman and beat me to death. What do you think I should

do with you?”

Douglas would have cried at any moment. Jonathan may look kind, but he was actually ruthless with

his attacks. Douglas could not help but start pleading, “Jonathan! I was a fool. Please, don’t hold a

grudge on a low life like me.”

“Jonathan, forget it. Let’s go.” Jennifer was afraid that Jonathan might go overboard and end up in jail.

Hence, she tried to stop him.

Jonathan looked at Jennifer coldly and replied in a serious tone, “I know what I’m doing.”

Jennifer was stunned for a second, then realized a girl like her should best stay silent in that situation.

She then backed off to the side.

Jonathan smiled at Douglas again. “Normally, with my temper, I would have at least gouged your eyes

out. That should help you remember your lesson. However, your apology seems legit. How about this.

Just pay me a sum to cover my emotional pain, then I shall let it go.”

Douglas was relieved upon hearing that. He quickly said, “Of course. Of course! Jonathan, just say a

number.”

“I won’t make it too hard on you. Let’s do a simple one million. Okay?”

Douglas’ relief disappeared as soon as he heard that, and his expression turned miserable. “Jonathan,

I really don’t have that much money.”

Jonathan looked displeased. “Then I have no choice. Come. Today I shall break both arms of yours.”

He then lifted his steel pipe, ready to crush Douglas’ arms.

Douglas was so scared that he wetted himself. His knees gave out, and he wailed while kneeling on

the ground, “Please don’t! I’ll find a way to get the money!”

Jonathan sighed lightly. “You’re hopeless. Should have just promised me earlier.”

Douglas wanted to cry but had no tears. However, there was unnoticeable wickedness in his eyes.

After that, he stood up and said carefully, “I really don’t have much money on me at the moment. I have

to borrow some money. Can you please spare me some time?”

Jonathan replied, “Ah. I see. I’m a reasonable guy, so I’ll give you ten hours. You have until eight

o’clock tomorrow morning to get the money. How’s that?”

Douglas was a little shocked, as he did not expect Jonathan to be so easygoing. Then, he quickly

answered, “No problem.”

“Write down my number. Also, give me your ID card. Do anything funny, and I’ll head to your home to

look for you,” Jonathan added.

Douglas quickly agreed. All he wanted to do was to break away from that monster.

Jonathan gave Douglas his number and urged him to save it on his phone. He then took away Douglas’

ID card. After that, he waved his hand and let Douglas and his men go.

Initially, Yvette wanted to have a friendly match with Jonathan. However, after seeing how vicious he

was, she was too afraid and left reluctantly.

The group of people disappeared as quickly as they came.

After they left, Jonathan said to Jennifer, “Let’s head back.”

Jennifer’s mind was full of questions, but she knew it was not a good time to ask them. Hence, she

went into the car with Jonathan.

Soon, Jonathan started the car and left Bar Street.

It was ten at night. The sky was covered in stars, and the streets were lit brightly by two lanes of street

lights.

Jennifer could not help but ask, “Jonathan, I don’t understand why you asked for a million from the

gangsters. I’m sure they don’t have that much money. Moreover, we aren’t in need of money. We came

here to inspect and open a bar. Even though you’re not afraid of them, they’ll only bring you trouble.

Women and petty guys are the last people you want to offend. What’s the point?”

Jonathan chuckled. “Jen, are you implying that I shouldn’t offend you?”

Jennifer was not in the mood for jokes. “Jonathan, I’m really worried.”

Jonathan smiled, “Jen, don’t worry. Just get prepared to be a lady boss. I know what to do.”

Jennifer was stunned for a moment. She was then reminded of Jonathan’s capabilities. Jonathan had

managed to play some games with Leonardo while the former was in a detention room. He was even

able to have Leonardo compromise for him. What happened earlier was merely a little fight with some

unknown gangsters. Hence, her worries were unnecessary. With that, she kept quiet.

Around ten-thirty, the two returned to their rental room.

Jonathan started practicing Ultra Sun Moon Mantra on the bed.

His Neutralizing Force was already at its peak, and he was really close to achieving Immortal Level. He

always wanted to break through and reach Immortal Level. However, over the past few years, he still

could not figure out the final step. He had hit a plateau.

That night, Jonathan was constantly working on his Ultra Sun Moon Mantra. His mind and heart were in

peace, and his vitality had recovered to its powerful state. However, he still had no progress toward

achieving Immortal Level.

The gap between Immortal Level and Neutralizing Force might seem thin as paper, but the difference

was huge.

If he could not breach the gap, no matter how strong his Neutralizing Force was, he would still be a

mortal.

Once he breached the gap, he would achieve a high-level Nascent Soul. Only after that, he would

reach Immortal Level.

His goal was so close.

Jonathan kept cultivating until three in the morning but still made no progress. However, he was not in

a rush, as he understood that cultivation at that level could not be rushed. He then went to take a

shower.

After that, he went to bed.

When it was seven o’clock in the morning, Jonathan’s phone rang.

It was Douglas who called.

With his eyes still closed, Jonathan grabbed his phone and picked up the call.

Douglas said politely, “Jon, am I disturbing your sleep?”

He had tried addressing Jonathan in many different ways. Finally, he found “Jon” to be the most

affectionate.

Jonathan yawned. “You woke me up from my sleep. What do you think? How is it? Have you gotten the

money? If you have it, then I’ll forgive you for disrupting my sleep.”

Douglas was at a loss for words. He hesitated for a moment before speaking again. “Jon, my boss

wants to have a word with you.”

Before Jonathan could reply, another man’s loud voice sounded on the other end of the line. The voice

sounded carefree. “Is it Mr. Lawson?”

Jonathan sat up and said lazily, “You’re Douglas’ boss? Do you have my money? If not, I’m not

interested in talking to you.”

Douglas’ boss was stunned for a second and laughed. “Mr. Lawson, you sound so easygoing. I like

you! Money is not an issue. How about this. Let’s have a drink at Riches Restaurant this noon. I’ll pass

you the money then.

Jonathan laughed. “Sure. No problem.”
