…
Leylin looked at the upper part of the centre tower of the battlefield where a black flag with a white snake which was eating it’s own tail was waving.
Leylin turned his gaze at Xerxas and regretfully waved his head, “You could have been a good pawn but the time to play is over now. The real battle is about to begin!”
“Remember you chose this!” Leylin eyes turned cold as he grabbed Xerxas’s neck and lifted him high up in the air again.
He tried resist and use his electric skill on Leylin but it had no effect.
In front of hundreds of eyes, Xerxas was lifted up by Leylin single handedly; it was an insult!
Leylin lifted him a bit higher as every warrior present could see the grief and fear on Xerxas’s face.
“Death comes in many form but the most grotesque is when you die with unfulfilled desire and regret. I shall offer you such a death!” Leylin muttered soundlessly as Xerxas eyes widen in panic.
The arena quietened down suddenly and all the warriors gazed at Leylin
“We give up!” Fredrick was shocked and he cried miserably after he saw Leylin’s cold eyes, “We lose! We lose!”
“Stop!” The referee at the roundtable announced immediately.
“Crack!”
Another clear sound came from Xerxas’s neck, and his head flapped down in an odd way.
All the warriors were horrified. They looked at Leylin, who had just shattered Xerxas’s neck, in quiet astonishment.
It was extremely silent in the arena.
Under everybody’s gaze, Leylin tossed away Xerxas’s body indifferently.
“Paa!”
Xerxas’s dead body landed three meters in front of Fredrick, with his head strangely twisted.
“Let the dance begin!” Leylin looked at the far sky smiled, the long awaited moment is about to come for him to reap benefit during the absolute chaos. Through his spy system Leylin knows that Ordell Omega have left the Misty pavilion and is coming towards the God Stone Square.
Leylin had planted a dedicated spy at the Misty Pavilion who kept sending information about the status of Ordell Omega but quite in fact the real signal wasn’t her but rather her life, the spy in the Pavilion was already under their surveillance and as they were going to take flight to erase sensitive information the spy was killed, which in turn made her unable to send her timely signal then promoting the others to wave the a white small Ouroboros flag in clear view of the battlefield.
From the death of the spy to the knowledge of the spy’s death and sending the signal to Leylin, calculating the speed that a Sky Realm Warriors might have from the recorded texts as well as the distance from Misty Pavilion to God Stone Square, it would take at most one to two minutes for Ordell Omega to come here and all hell to lose control.
Not caring about the Dunn family, Leylin returned to the Lenoir family tower and without any care and took his seat.
“You bastard!”
Fredrick’s eyes were filled with endless hatred, it wasn’t the death of Xerxas personally, which pained him rather the defeat, the huge monetary loss as well as the death of a talented descendant. With a raging roar he suddenly stormed towards the arena, and thundered, “You killed my family’s genius and my brothers only leaving descendant. I WILL bury you by his side!”
Xerxas death truly provoked him and added to his son current unknown status, Fredrick didn’t even care about the rest of the Martial Competition. He straightaway rushed towards the Lenoir family
As Fredrick made his move, all the distraught members of the Dunn family also stood up. They all rushed into the arena and sprinted towards the Lenoir family.
“Fredrick! My two grandsons are still lying on the ground!” Eren was in violent rage as he also rushed forward. Staring coldly at the approaching Fredrick, he sneered, “You were totally calm when you were winning, but lost your temper as soon as you were defeated? Hmph! If you can’t afford to lose, then don’t participate in the Martial Competition at all!”
“Calm down all of you!”
Elrod’s expression was stern as he stood up. Suddenly the temperature around the arena dropped by considerable degree as frigid air started emitting from his body.
Even though the sun was at its height, all the warriors around the arena felt chilly.
“Stand down!” Fredrick suddenly turned back his head and shouted to the infuriated members of the Dunn family.
To this the dedicated warriors and masters of the Dunn family were unwilling, but under his cold gaze, everybody retreated back to their places.
“Eren Lenoir, would you dare to fight solo with me!” When the people of the Dunn family backed away, Fredrick suddenly roared from the middle of the arena.
“Woah! No way?”
“Now this is gonna be quite a show! A battle between two family heads!”
“I didn’t come thousands of miles in vain, this time the arena is truly splendid!”
The crowd was totally excited as they looked at Eren in expectation.
“Why not?” Eren sneered, and also stepped into the center of the arena. He greeted Elrod and said, “Crystal Family Head, Fredrick and I will have a fair fight, I’m sure this is not against the rules?”
Frigid air was seeping from Elrods body. He groaned and furrowed his brow for a moment, and then slowly sat down, shaking his head, he sighed, “Why bother you two? But if you really wish to fight, I wouldn’t stop you. I only hope that you restrain yourselves and don’t hurt others.”
Leylin, the culprit was totally unfazed by the recent developments and was sitting nonchalantly at the Lenoir family’s side.
Not caring one bit about the drama about to unfold.
‘She’s here!’
Just when the two were about to fight to the death, the entire Temion City seemed to shake for a second. In the far distance, the tall stone tower of the Misty Pavilion, which was dozens of meters high, instantly toppled down.
Even from thousands of meters away, one could see the silhouette of a female above the tower, wearing a black crape and a bamboo hat.
This was clearly a very stunning woman.
She was just like a goddess, with her hands above her head, as if holding something.
That piece of the sky looked like it was time-warped, with masses of strange air flooded the clouds.
From the clouds, some mysterious power in the river of time turned into pillars of light, and all of a sudden stormed down from the heavens, shooting directly into the woman’s upheld hands.
An earth-shakingly strong force suddenly spread out from the woman’s body.
Thousands of meters away, the warriors in the arena could all feel the terrifying force coming from her.
Streaks of exotic beams abruptly shot out from her body. Due to the great density of the beam, it was as if multiple rainbows were wrapping around her.
“Sky Realm master!”
“Who is this woman? So powerful!”
“What is happening? Why is there another Sky Realm master in the city?”
All the people in the arena were totally focused in her direction, completely forgetting Fredrick and Eren’s fight.
In the blazing hot sunlight, the woman with the perfect body raised her hands in mid-air.
Suddenly an enormous radiant hand emerged from the sky, and violently smashed down like a mountain.
Under that gigantic hand, a black dot was forming, which was slowly increasing in size…
Gradually, that black dot formed into the silhouette of a person.
The god-like giant hand, spreading over hundreds of meters, smashed down on the ground with immense force. The silhouette of the person formed from that black dot, suddenly warped and disappeared into streams of dark light.
“Boom!”
The enormous hand completely destroyed the three, twenty-meter high Misty Pavilion towers. The rigid Green Iron towers became metal scraps, flying everywhere.
The woman in the black crape and bamboo hat stood in the air above the ruin of the Misty Pavilion for a moment, and then flew towards the arena.
In merely a few seconds, she arrived above the arena, condescendingly looking at the crowd below. With her angel-like voice, she said, “Half of the map is on my hands. Dunn Family Head, if you really want it, just come and take in upfront; no need to play tricks in the dark.”
“Our Dunn family didn’t do it!” Fredrick Dunn looked up at her and roared, but there was a flash of surprise in his eyes.
He was only at the Third Sky of the Nirvana Realm, but this woman could walk in mid-air, which was a trait of Sky Realm warriors!
How could he not be afraid?
“Miss!”
Two giant men pushed their way among the crowd, and immediately appeared outside the arena.
In mid-air, the floating goddess-like woman pointed at Fredrick and commanded, “Teach him a little lesson.”
“Yes, Miss!”The two giant men roared as their muscles suddenly bulged. They were already two meters tall, but instantly grew by some centimeters while exerting power, with dark thick hair suddenly growing on their bodies.
In a flash, the two men turned into what looked like rabid beasts, their eyes filled with a bloodthirsty and murderous look.
The two giant men suddenly dashed out, the strong Green Iron rubble exploding into pieces everywhere they went!
“Who are you? This is the Merchant Union’s arena; we will not allow you to cause trouble here!” Elrod Crystal suddenly roared into the heavens, frigid air seeping from him.
Howling, he also flew into the air.
Balls of strange blue flames flew from his body. Those flames shortly condensed into blue fire clouds. These icy clouds, along with the power to freeze the heaven and earth, shot towards the woman.
“Elrod Crystal, is it?” The woman’s voice was still sweet as she said indifferently, “The Misty Pavilion’s business has nothing to do with you! Your Crystal family can act like an overlord in the Merchant Union, but in the Endless Sea, you would not even be a third-rate family! You better know your place!”
“Arrogant!” Elrod raised himself into mid-air and stood across from the woman, his face as cold as glacier. He sneered, “I would like to see exactly how capable you are, since you dare to bluster with your wild arrogance!”
The cloud-like [Polar Ice Flames] surged towards the woman like tides.
The woman snorted as she suddenly rose up, and disappeared into the mass of clouds. After a long moment her voice rang out, “Come and fight up here, don’t harm the innocent.”
“Alright!” Elrod shouted, his body also shooting high above the sky, and disappeared in the clouds.
Thundering roars came from the heavens, as if it was the end of the world.
Everyone in the arena knew that Elrod had started fighting with the mysterious woman, but sadly, no one could see this fight.
“Boom boom boom!”
The two towering men had, by then, surrounded Fredrick, and ruthlessly started beating him.
These two big men were like iron giants, their bodies extremely sturdy. They weren’t afraid of the arms thick strands of lightning, and kept bombarding him in the midst of the lightning strikes.
Strikes of lightning flew in the sky like an electrical dragon. The lightning came from Fredrick, fifteen strands in total, and they formed a closely-knit electrical web, charging at the towering giant men.
“Fredrick Dunn! Give up the treasure map, or else don’t blame me for attacking the Dunn family members!”
Suddenly Eren Katz’s voice came from a corner of the arena. He had brought a group of masters from the Medicine Valley, and walked towards Fredrick step by step, his expression grim.
“Katz! The treasure map isn’t with the Dunn family! Release my son now, or else you’re not going to walk out of Temion City alive!” Fredrick was furious, even under the joined forces of the two giant men, he could still give out threats.
“Alright then! You forced me to do this!” Katz’s voice was cold, and he said to the Medicine Valley masters beside him, “Kill everyone in the Dunn family!”
Then Katz also sprinted out, his body like a beam of light, he joined the forces of the two giant men and bombarded Fredrick.
“Pop pop pop! Boom boom boom!”
The electrical dragon moved around in the sky. The two towering giant men were like monstrous beasts. One of them grabbed two millstone sized Green Iron pieces, and whenever he got near Fredrick he would throw the thousand-kilograms piece of Green Iron at him.
In a short moment, the whole arena was filled with lightning and flying stones. Fire spread everywhere and silver lights scurried around.
In the crowd, those that were struck by the electric dragon turned into a crisp, while those that were struck by the stones turned into a pulp.
The fight among these masters had turned everything into chaos! Many of the warriors cursed, shrieked and roared as they all tried to get out of the way.
Those with low capability simply escaped the God Stone Square in a panic, afraid to stay and watch the show.
The masters from Medicine Valley took advantage of the situation and stormed towards the Dunn family, attacking its descendents and warriors.
However, the Dunn family’s descendents and warriors were undaunted. They weren’t afraid of the Medicine Valley’s attacks, and firmly suppressed those that came at them.
Now Lenoir family and Eren Lenoir actually seemed like an outsider.
In the arena they watched the Dunn family suffer in surprise, but inside, he was as delighted as ever.
‘Time to stir the pot and reap in some Profound Qi!’Leylin thought witnessing the chaos as he stepped forward and said firmly, “Grandpa, do it now!”
“Do it now?” Eren froze, then furrowed his brows: “You mean?”
“The Dunn family is our enemy and have lost so much of their property from us. Fredrick will surely seek vengeance! Rather than letting the Dunn family recover and strike us, why not take advantage of their weakness! You can cooperate with Katz and those two to kill him, while we will hunt down the second and third generations of the Dunn family. It’s best if we completely cripple the entire Dunn family today, so they would never have a chance of revenge.” Leylin said with a straight face, and if anyone didn’t hear these words they won’t believe the cruelty reeking from his cold indifferent eyes.
“Big brother! Berkan is right! At this point, we should just screw it all and do it! Screw the Martial Competition, take out the Dunn family first!” Thomas came up and growled.
Ethan and Mark were both heavily injured, still laying on the ground. He had already suppressed his anger, but now that the perfect chance was here, he couldn’t hold himself back anymore.
Paul was also here, and he nodded at Eren.
“Elrod Crystal is kept busy right now, so the Crystal family has no one in charge. Without his permission, no one in the Crystal family would help the Dunn family. This is a golden opportunity! If we miss this chance we’ll never get it again!” Leylin gave in another word of encouragement and said, “Grandpa, you guys kill Fredrick, and I will take care of others. We can entirely destroy the Dunn family bloodline!”
“Kid, you sure are ruthless enough!” Thomas looked at Leylin surprised, and before Eren agreed he rushed out and shouted, “Fredrick, you old dog, today you will die for sure!”
Once Thomas exited, Eren stopped hesitating and said to Paul, “Protect Berkan!”
Then he also stormed out and roared, “Fredrick Dunn! It’s time to settle it between us!”
