Kill them!
Bam! Immediately, the armor which was previously regarded as impregnable was shredded to pieces. The swords which the apostles wielded were fragmented into tiny bits. Even the apostle, with the power of control over rocks and gravels, was destroyed.
With his sword, there was nothing that could possibly stop Lin Chen at this point.
Furthermore, Lin Chen was not their only enemy. Purple Sabre Fairy would come in from time to time, lending Lin Chen a helping hand. The purple plasma sabers would slice across the sky before the victim’s blood was mercilessly splattered across the ground.
Priest Yang’s jaw went slack when he witnessed the carnage and screamed, “Where did these two fellas come from? When did Chuan Xiao ever have apostles of this level? Mao, I think it’s time for us to escape …”
Priest Yang instantly cocked his head around only to realize that Master Mao had already beaten him to it and was already 100 meters away. Priest Yang could hardly suppress his anger and immediately gave chase.
The apostles under those two cowards quickly fled when they realized the gravity of the situation.
Li Tian extended his hand towards Sonia and said, “Let’s go!”
A tinge of hesitation flashed across Sonia’s eyes.
Li Tian noticed it and screamed, “What are you waiting for?” Sonia shut her eyes before extending her hand towards his.
Li Tian cocked his body forward before bending his knees at an angle. With a huge explosion of strength, he had already propelled forward at an astounding speed. The power which he was endowed with was extreme leg strength that granted him speed humans could only crave for. At his peak, he was as fast as a car.
That was the only reason why Sonia relented to his suggestions. With his astounding strength pulling her forward, Sonia could maintain this extraordinary speed by running as per normal.
They turned their heads around and witnessed the massacre unfurl before them. The purple plasma sabers continued bouncing off their victim’s body before crashing against the red-brick walls and coming straight for them.
In fact, Master Mao and company would have zero chance of escaping if not for Lin Chen and Purple Sabre Fairy. Lin Chen’s willpower was continually resisting Old Cat’s power, which made it impossible for Old Cat to divert his attention towards anyone else. Also, he had to continually worry about Master Mao’s supposed power.
Naturally, Li Tian and Sonia were the ones leading the pack and had soon come face to face with Zhao Yao and the hordes of people he had rescued.
Sonia noticed Zhao Yao’s confused expression but she had no time to explain, “Run!”
“Run?” Zhao Yao was bewildered by her response, “Why do I have to run?”
“Just listen to me!” All these time, Zhao Yao had been gnawing at her conscious since she was the one who led him to this place. Her empathy for him intensified when she looked at that naïve face. She shouted, “Wait a moment!’
With a hard tug, she had managed to bring Li Tian to a halt. Li Tian was flabbergasted by her insane behavior and retorted, “Are you crazy?”
Sonia sprinted towards Zhao Yao before grabbing him by the hand and dragging him towards the exit. She explained, “We have to escape! Old Cat had successfully controlled two powerful apostles! They are chasing after us!”
Zhao Yao had no idea how to put it across but tried his best to explain, “Erm, actually there’s no need for us to escape.”
“What do you even know?” Her pulse slammed in her neck when she stared at that pair of innocent eyes which had no idea what was going on. She had no time to waste and continued screaming, “Just follow us! You will be dead if they catch up to us!” A hint of fear was evident in her voice. Naturally, she was still affected by the atrocity which she had seen.
Similarly, Li Tian was engulfed by both fear and anger. His eyes darted from Zhao Yao to Sonia as he roared, “Just leave him here!”
Sonia remained adamant and insisted, “I’m the one who brought him here. I can’t just watch him die.”
“R*tard!” Anxiety and nervousness were flooding Li Tian’s head as he swept his head around to look at the enemy’s progress. Immediately, his eyes were filled with fear.
The shadows cast by the purple plasma sabers were inching towards them. Every second, an apostle would collapse to the ground as the saber whizzed across their bodies.
Suddenly, 10 giant trees were uprooted from the fertile soil and were thrown towards Lin Chen like spears. However, they were instantly destroyed the next moment as their remains settled to the ground as dust. Purple Sabre Fairy noticed the apostle behind the trees and shot two sabers at him which punctured his body, leaving two holes across his chest.
Li Tian let out a deafening shriek when both Purple Sabre Fairy and Lin Chen looked towards his direction. Immediately, he ran away with zero regards for Sonia and Zhao Yao.
“This is bad.” Sonia craned her neck forward and noticed the pair ambling towards them. Cold sweat beaded her forehead as chills ran down her spine.
On a knoll not too far away, the girl who came along with Lin Chen was frantically dialing on her phone. She screamed at the top of her voice the moment the call went through, “Hey! Send in more people! That stupid Lin Chen is under Old Cat’s control!”
“We are almost there, just hang in there …”
“Hang in my ass! The entire village would have been destroyed by the time you guys are here! Quickly, come up with a plan!”
The girl’s eyes were fixed on the two monsters while she continued speaking. In her eyes, there was no one who could possibly put an end to their rampage.
Black Panther took a step forward and blocked Zhao Yao when he noticed the pair approaching them. He was barely able to breathe when he spoke, “Master, you should leave first. Those two do not seem friendly. I’ll try to buy you as much time as possible.”
Tiger was struggling to get on his feet when he noticed Old Cat not too far away from the pair of monsters. Excitement raced through him as he shouted, “Old Cat!”
“Hmph?” Old Cat’s eyes swept towards Tiger as his forehead creased together, “What happened to you?”
“Black … black panther stabbed me.” Tiger’s finger was still trembling as he pointed towards Zhao Yao, “It’s that man. He had gathered everyone from Hope Elementary School and enticed them to leave!”
Terror overtook their faces when Xiao Ming, and many from Hope Elementary School, heard Tiger’s report to Old Cat. However, a vast majority remained on Zhao Yao’s side, without a hint of fear. Apparently, Zhao Yao’s b*llshit had successfully brainwashed them.
Black Panther screamed, “Old Cat, my master has invented the true miracle water! He is here to help us create wealth!”
Old Cat slid Zhao Yao a condescending glance before cackling, “I didn’t expect anyone to come here and take my people away from me. I’ll give it to you, you are quite brave.” Obviously, he knew that there was no such thing as miracle water in the world. This notion of it was only used to supplement his power in order to maintain this fraud organization.
Tiger rushed behind Old Cat’s back, with a gleeful smile plastered on his face.
Three purple plasma sabers had already zoomed towards Zhao Yao, narrowly missing his head by mere centimeters. The high vibration sword in Lin Chen’s hand exuded a mist-like aura which only further intensified the atmosphere.
One small girl dashed towards Sonia before jumping into her arms. With her head buried in her chest, she screamed, “Sister!”
At first, Sonia was overwhelmed with happiness. However, she was soon brought back to reality when she noticed the sabers whizzing across the place. Her brows locked together as she muttered, “What do we do now?”
Zhao Yao stared at the pair with his forehead furrowed together before asking, “Are the both of you apostles from Chuan Xiao District?” Naturally, he had already recognized Lin Chen. Zhao Yao had never expected a government apostle to be swindled as well.
Sonia let out a sigh of despair and whispered, “Sorry for getting you involved in all of these.”
Zhao Yao patted her on her shoulders and reassured her, “Do not worry, it’s fine.”
Sonia shook her head violently and protested, “You do not understand! They are … different from us! Different!” The previous battles had shown Sonia the disparity in strengths amongst apostles. Against apostles such as Lin Chen, she simply had no chance of surviving.
Master Mao and Priest Yang peeked their heads out of a tiny window from a faraway house and noticed Xiao Ming next to Zhao Yao. They pondered, “Isn’t that Xiao Ming? What do we do?”
“What else can we do? Are we supposed to save him when we can’t even save ourselves?”
“We can simply jump to Old Cat’s side if the situation calls for it. I mean we do belong to the same industry. We can even explore future areas of development together.”
