"Out of my way!" Leon was prepared for the attacks from the other Apostles and waved his arm, sending a few poisoned daggers at them. "Those are poisoned daggers!" They gasped. They heard from Joel that Leon possessed a poison that killed upon contact and seeing the blue glow on the daggers, they instantly realized that Leon covered the daggers in poison. Not daring to stop, they darted away from the daggers. Taking advantage of that, Leon continued with his attack at the Grand Apostle and aimed directly at their chest. "Damn it! Here goes nothing!" Seeing as he could not evade the attack, the Grand Apostle launched a powerful counter-attack to fend off Leon. "Die, old man!" Leon narrowed his eyes coldly. He knew that his overall strength was in the Intermediate Almighty State, so he was not much stronger than the Grand Apostle. If he went up against the Grand Apostle forcefully, he might be able to injure him, but would not be able to kill him. Once the Grand Apostle h
"How can this be?" The Southern Boss and Devon recovered from the initial shock and instantly fell into despair. The Four Apostles worked for the Southern Boss and he trained with them multiple times before, so he knew just how formidable the Four Beasts Formation was. When wielded by four martial artists in the Intermediate Almighty State, even the Southern Boss, who was in the Advanced Almighty State, failed to break free from the Four Beasts Formation. Only highly talented experts in ancient divinations who were in the Advanced Almighty State or above could see through the Four Beasts Formation, yet Leon, a relatively young man, managed to accomplish it and kill the Grand Apostle at the same time. The Southern Boss was shaken to the core as he struggled to comprehend the situation. "Great! Mister Wolf broke the Four Beasts Formation and killed the Grand Apostle!" "Wh- What a miracle!" ... Contrary to how the Southern Boss and Devon reacted, the Thompsons were overj
"Apostles, calm down! Leon's far too powerful and swift. He can't be defeated in a one-on-one fight, so you need to join forces to avoid getting targeted one by one!" The Southern Boss shouted. "Oh," The Apostles sobered. The Southern Boss was right as Leon appeared to be in the Intermediate Almighty State; on top of that, Leon possessed countless tricks including the Phantom Steps, so no one in the same power level could defeat him. If the Apostles acted recklessly and attacked without a plan, Leon might just target each one of them consecutively. "Also, that defensive tool has been used multiple times and should be useless by now. Just work together and stall him. Once I get rid of Arthur Thompson, I'll kill him and avenge the Grand Apostle!" The Southern Boss commanded. Treasures often had limits to how many times they could be used and Leon already used his defensive tools multiple times to survive attacks. If he was correct, Leon should be running out of time to use hi
"As expected!" "That kid's running out of tricks!" The three Apostles were all excited to see Leon running. Though they all assumed that the defensive tool Leon owned ran out of time to be used, that was merely an assumption, seeing how Leon ran from taking their attacks, they realized they might have been right. "Take this!" Their spirits were all uplifted and they immediately merged their true energy to form a bigger attack, before sending it toward Leon. Leon knew that the Mirror of Sovereign could not fend off the combined attack and darted away, before charging toward the three Apostles; if he managed to get closer, he could stop the attack. However, the three Apostles were all individuals with significant experience in battle, so they instantly caught Leon's intention. According to the Southern Boss's order, they were only meant to stall Leon and none of them intended to face him directly. They darted in different directions, before finding their way back to one a
"Watch out, Mister Wolf!" Yuri and Augus were both shocked that Leon stopped running around. They all witnessed how Leon struggled under the combined attacks of the three Apostles, and like the Southern Boss, they assumed that Leon ran out of time to use his defensive tool. Thankfully, Leon's Phantom Steps allowed him to evade the three Apostles, yet Leon gave up his advantage in speed and attempted to take the combined attack directly to save Arthur. Both shocked and worried, Iris, Cynthia, and the others watched as the Apostles' attacks merged into a gigantic blade of energy, before piercing through the air toward Leon. They almost fainted at the sight. "Arrogant brat! He must've decided to give up because he ran out of options!" ...Contrary to how Yuri and the others felt, the Southern Boss and Devon stared at Leon with a sneer as though Leon was already dead. They all knew that the three Apostles were extremely powerful and even with the defensive tool, Leon could no
"Wh- What's this?!" The three Apostles gasped in fear. They finally realized that Leon took their attack to launch an even more powerful counter-attack. Caught by surprise, they snapped out of it after a moment of daze and backed away from the attack. However, the Hurricane Break was a wide-range attack and no matter how hard they tried, they simply could not escape it. On top of that, Leon risked his own life to launch the attack while the three Apostles were on the momentum of their attacks, so it was too late for them to summon any strength for a counter-attack. They watched with fear as the Hurricane Break transformed into countless turbulences that pierced through their bodies, before exploding within them. Unable to even scream, their bodies were blown apart. "What?!" "How's that possible?!" Everyone, including the Southern Boss, Devon, and the Thompsons, was stunned. They all thought that Leon ran out of time to use his defensive tool and was powerless in the
"Damn it! Elder Hilton, we need to kill Arthur right now. Don't give him a chance to recover!" The Southern Boss's expression darkened as he reminded Devon. The Four Apostles were the head executives among the Spears and the foundations for the Southern Boss's power in the southern region. Seeing how Leon killed the Four Apostles, the Southern Boss desperately wished he could tear Leon into pieces, but he knew that this was not a time for him to lose his composure. At the moment, he needed to kill Arthur before Leon could come to his rescue, or he and Devon would lose their chances once Leon join forces with Arthur. Without hesitation, the Southern Boss leaped and executed the Divine Kick, sending a powerful blow toward Arthur in an attempt to kill him. "Damn it! Here goes nothing!" Arthur paled. He was on the verge of being defeated under the Southern Boss and Devon's combined attack, and since the Southern Boss was placing all his strength on this final attack, Arthur fou
"Baam!" Following a deafening sound, Leon's attack clashed with Devon's and was torn by Devon's overpowering true energy. Leon did not panic and simply titled his body to take the aftermath with the Mirror of Sovereign, all the while launching a Double Attack with his true energy in the Intermediate Overlord State to attack Devon. "How swift!" Shocked, Devon gasped. He never expected Leon to be so fast and manage to rescue Arthur in time. Caught off guard, he was instantly sent flying by Leon's double attack. A sharp pain pierced through his chest upon landing and he realized that he was injured. Thankfully, Leon was injured by the Four Apostles twice and Leon's power level was hardly high enough, the Double Attack did not cause severe injuries; if it were any way else, Devon would have died right on the spot. Seeing as Devon was stopped by Leon right before he could kill Arthur, the Southern Boss was furious. "Damn it! Leon, how dare you get in my way over and over again
