Boom! They clashed!Zayn was the one who lost out. He flew backward again as blood sprayed out of his mouth.Ezra was not the least bit delighted though. In fact, he was disappointed and very vexed. Despite his desire, he could not do anything beyond hurting him, let alone kill him.Ares himself had appeared, and his face did not look pretty at all. “You’ve got balls of steel, Ezra!”He was truly, completely apoplectic, and the wrath he projected made one believe that an immortal deity himself had become enraged by Ezra’s action. The sky darkened, and the earth shuddered. Every living creature who lived in Mount Roi shivered in fright.The crowd of onlookers trembled, too. Their minds went blank. They looked at that lone figure with the kind of reverence reserved only for gods. Then, a nagging feeling inside them compelled them to kneel, and many heeded it.Ezra’s face turned pale. He could be an Invincibilis fighter right now and still feared and respected Paxton because this wa
Paxton narrowed his eyes just in time for a hint of shock and wariness to flit past. He could hear whose voice this belonged to.Ezra was close to despair by this point, but the voice seemed to have awakened a hidden wellspring of hope and ecstasy. He dropped down to his knees and howled skyward, “Your Majesty! It is the honor of your humble servant, Ezra Sword, to see you!”He had not even recovered from the agony of the last fight when he fell onto his knees in religious zeal and adulation, and the only one who could make him do that in the entire world was the Saint and ruler of Sicut in Caelo.Caelum Caesar.Zayn narrowed his eyes too. His heart was charging. He was not sure if his mind was mistaking something else for another, but the voice was familiar. He felt like he had heard it from somewhere. He racked his head over it, and yet no name leaped into mind.Still, Zayn was pretty stoked that his duel with Raiden was enough to attract the Saint out of his hole!He spread hi
If it was Ezra Sword who had shown up, Zayn would still have a slim chance of survival. However, Zayn was doomed now that it was The Saint. Not even Paxton ‘Ares’ Brookes could ensure Zayn’s safety!Paxton raised his head to look toward a certain direction as if Caelum was standing on a cloud in the sky with his hands clasped behind him. Paxton said nonchalantly, “Caelum, you finally appear.”Caelum’s voice was heard coming from the void once again. It was a God-like voice that boomed as if he had experienced many vicissitudes of life. It would be hard to forget a voice like that. “Paxton, you’ve been looking for me constantly over the years. I didn’t acknowledge you out of respect for your teacher. Did you really think I was afraid of you?” Caelym’s voice did not seem to contain any emotional changes. In addition, his voice echoed from all directions before sweeping in like tidewater. It did not sound like a human voice anymore一it sounded more like the voice of God that could rend
Paxton took the initiative to launch an opportunistic attack on Caelum. Zayn’s brows twitched ferociously as he was overwhelmed with emotions and filled with anticipation. His gaze followed Paxton closely, yet he did not manage to see their silhouettes. It was as if they were in a dimension that ordinary people could not see. It did not make sense at all!As for the rest of the people, they were even more confused. They could not figure out how Paxton vanished out of nowhere. The sounds of intense battle could be heard coming from all directions in the sky, yet there was no trace of their silhouettes. It was a truly ghastly experience. At that very moment, Zayn even wondered if Paxton and Caelum had already separated themselves from human boundaries and were close to being gods?However, he denied the idea soon afterward. It was impossible, but only because they were powerful to a certain extent and had way more control over their powers that they distracted the minds of the ot
Zayn felt rather touched in his heart. He looked at Lysithea and said, “As a member of Sicut In Caelo, aren’t you afraid that you’ll be punished by The Saint for doing this?”Lysithea shifted her gaze and said, “I grew up in the organization, so The Saint won’t kill me. However, you’re different. You’re the son of the previous Saintess, and you’re considered a disgrace to The Saint in a certain sense. He was planning on killing you from the start. You’d better run now!”Zayn said, “Lysithea, why do you care so much about me?”Lysithea paused for a moment with a look of uneasiness flashed past her face for a moment. She let out a grunt heavily and turned her head to the side. “Hmph. Don’t think too much of yourself. I’m only warning you out of respect for Aunt Hayley. What are you doing still standing there? Run, quickly! Are you trying to get yourself killed!?” she said, her lips uttering one thing although she clearly meant something else.Zayn shook his head and stated, “I won’t
The matter was considered resolved with Zayn defeating Raiden completely before killing the latter and contracting enmity with Sicut In Caelo. Zayn was supposed to be in the limelight for his brazen action, but in reality, his limelight was seized by Paxton ‘Ares’ Brookes and Caelum. Just as ripples spread out when a single pebble is dropped, Caelum showed up in the world again. Moreover, he engaged in a great battle with Paxton before injuring Paxton in the fight at last. It was absolutely explosive news that took the world by storm!A week passed, and the incident was still being constantly discussed in the circle. During this period of time, Zayn learned a lot. Even though the vast majority of topics were focused on the shocking battle between Caelum and Paxton, Zayn’s name was deeply etched in everyone’s minds as well. From now on, no one had the courage to take him lightly anymore. Even the members of the Insurgent Duofecta such as Jonah, Taio, and the others kept a low p
Next, the rest of the family members toasted their drinks to Zayn in succession. Even the senior members of the family joined as well. It was very apparent that Zayn was the mainstay of the Carters now. As the family patriarch, George was not sour about that at all. On the contrary, he was beaming in joy. He felt very gratified that he did not stop Zayn from marrying Faye in the past. Or else, their family would be doomed by now. Zayn was a blessing to the Carter family. “Yikes, don’t go too far, all of you. You’re taking turns to toast to Zayn. What do we do if you get Zayn drunk later?” Zayn’s mother-in-law, Ruby immediately chided in a displeased tone. She treasured Zayn like he was her precious now. Ever since his rise to success, she had lived a lavish life and was admired the most in her social circle these days. On the other hand, her privilege was all thanks to Zayn. Zayn chuckled and said, “It’s fine. I’m quite a good drinker. I won’t get drunk.”Indeed, he was right. T
Upon hearing that, Faye was startled. “Met with a mishap? Could it be that they’re in trouble again?!”Zayn nodded and said, “Perhaps. It’s possible.”Faye immediately became concerned, but the other members of the Carter family were not worried. Howard chuckled and said, “Surely it’s not so serious. The young lads are not fools. They will certainly mention your name if they get into trouble. Unless whoever they’re dealing with has been living under a rock, nobody would dare do them any harm.”George nodded as well. He appeared relaxed and did not seem bothered at all. “Howard’s right. No one in all of Waltz City has the courage to do anything to us unless they have a death wish. Speaking of which, Zayn, it’s all thanks to you! Come, I’ll raise a toast to you too.”As he spoke, George stood up and raised a glass to Zayn. He assumed a rather respectful, submissive posture. Frankly, upon witnessing the scene, Zayn felt rather frustrated. He decided he should not meet with the Carte
He had already found his next path and he was hopeful for his future. He was convinced that he could reproduce the miracle perfectly if he had enough time!He turned around abruptly and saw Zayn’s icy cold face. He could not refrain himself from saying aloud, “Zayn! I’m your father-in-law! You can’t kill me!”There was a change of Zayn’s icy cold face at last when he heard that. He furrowed his brows for a moment. However, just as Osiris was pleased about his remark, Zayn had already thrown a punch. It was a simple, unadorned, straightforward, concise punch that landed heavily on Osiris’ chest. A poof that sounded like poking through a layer of paper was heard when he punched through Osiris’ chest. On the other hand, Osiris’ body halted to a stop as well. He widened his eyes in disbelief and lowered his head to look at his wound incredulously….“You… You…” He glared at Zayn, his gaze filled with recalcitrance, fear and regret. Zayn said nonchalantly, “You don’t deserve to be h
“You’re next.”Bang!Upon saying that, he exerted strength in his limbs and flew toward Osiris. Yes, he flew over. His body rose into the air and he was capable of standing steadily in the air without any support. He looked just like a superhero from the movies!Most importantly, he was extremely swift in speed and had already surpassed the speed limit achievable by mankind. Osiris felt an immense sense of danger that he had never felt before at this exact moment. It sent a shiver down his spine instantly and he was actually scared out of his wits that his body turned icy cold. He had a feeling that he was no match for Zayn and that he would die immediately if he stayed!Zayn who advanced beyond invincibilis state was way too powerful that he could not make sense anymore and he was no match for Zayn. He made the quickest and most precise decision that was to run. He would spare no effort in running away from Zayn!While there was life, there was hope. Zayn’s success prov
Hence, they did not have the courage to rescue Zayn even after noticing that he was in imminent danger. They could only watch helplessly and do nothing. “Look! That’s Sergeant Larson! Oh god, what transpired in the past few days? Why is Sergeant Larson being surrounded by so many powerhouses from the clubs? He can’t possibly escape from danger under such circumstances no matter how powerful he is!”“Oh no, oh no, Sergeant Larson is going to die here…”“What should we do? Could it be that we’re not going to do anything to save him?”“I don’t know. Let’s ask for instructions from our superior…”The numerous combat aircraft in the sky began to send out signals and asked for instruction from their superior. Soon, they received the reply and they were instructed not to act rashly or approach easily. It was because they would be doomed if they were to get closer and enter the attack zone of the invincibilis powerhouses. Hence, they could only watch from afar and await reinforcement
Upon saying that, Zayn placed Faye on the ground in an extremely gentle and cautious manner. Faye’s body had already become stiff, but her body had actually begun to turn soft after being caressed by Zayn’s palm. She lay flat on the ground with an expression that looked like she was asleep. After Zayn was done, he turned around and looked toward Osiris, his expression icy cold. He said nonchalantly, “It’s your fault that Fifi is dead. You deserve to die.”Next, his gaze swept across everyone and said something that terrified everyone, “All of you deserve to die!”Upon hearing that, Osiris’ expression turned somber and filled with murderous intent abruptly. He had already realized by now that his hard work and effort of a lifetime was wasted on Zayn!At the moment he found Faye in her aging state completely drained of life and power, he realized that his plan had failed!The result of his hard work for a lifetime was seized by the bastard before him!In an instant, his rage
“Zayn’s willpower is so strong that he is capable of withstanding the pain of his body’s restructuring indifferently. He’s an excellent talent.” The person speaking was the armored man and he was looking at Zayn through the cloud without attempting to conceal his admiration. He had encountered plenty of geniuses and countless geniuses more gifted in martial arts than Zayn. However, Zayn was the only ine whose willpower was so strong that he could endure the pain of body restructuring. Even he himself failed to withstand the pain of body restructuring and had rolled on the ground frantically. The woman nodded to herself as she looked at Zayn without attempting to conceal her admiration and approval. “This Earther is quite impressive. He has already taken the step successfully. My trip to Earth was not wasted this time…huh?”However, it was at this exact moment when Zayn on the ground raised his head and looked in their direction with his sharp gaze as if he could sense them.
Zayn wanted to reject her instinctively, but when he saw the final hopefulness in Faye’s eyes, he could not bring himself to reject her anymore. He knew that it was Faye’s final moment.The glint in Faye’s eyes was vanishing gradually. He opened his mouth and of all the words he wanted to say to her in her last moment, he said, “Yes!”Upon hearing the word, Faye’s aged face cracked a smile. Then, the joyous smile was frozen on her face for eternity…Zayn’s body stiffened as well. He had already forgotten how he landed on the ground, but he remained in the same position with Faye in his arms for a very long time. He hugged Faye until her residual body temperature dispersed and her body began to become stiff. Zayn was heartbroken. He felt a feeling of dejection and hollowness that he had never experienced before and it washed over his entire body like a flood. He lost track of time until he felt the rain pouring from the sky. Even the sky could feel his sorrow and began to w
Zayn had never felt so agonized in his life!It was because he knew that Faye was already at the end of her life, not even God could save her now!He had no idea why his heart would ache so badly and why he hated himself so much. It was well within his expectation that both Faye and him would not survive the fall. Now, he was in so much agony just because Faye was one step ahead of him in death. Was he in agony because Faye sacrificed her life for his survival, or was it because he would not see Faye again for the rest of his life?Zayn’s mind could not function normally anymore because he was in so much pain and tormented now. His body was still dropping constantly and at an increasing speed. They were dropping so fast that Faye could not withstand the process and was suffocating. After seeing Faye’s condition, Zayn did not even think. He began to stop his body from falling at full speed instinctively as he was born to do it until he became completely suspended in the air!I
Upon saying that, Faye kissed Zayn’s lips. It was a kiss so deep and unhindered. Zayn hugged Faye tightly as well. In the beginning, he was under the assumption that it was a very normal kiss. It was their final sentimentality before death. However, Zayn discovered that something was off soon!It was because he could clearly feel a gush of immense power passing from Faye’s mouth constantly. The intensity of the power had even surpassed that of the fruits he consumed in Shangri-la. The unexpected change caught him off guard and he was dumbfounded instantly. He did not manage to respond to the situation. What the heck was going on?He widened his eyes and stared at Faye before him. However, he soon saw something that sent a shiver down his spine. Faye’s hair turned from black to white swiftly at a visible speed!Moreover, Faye’s fair, tender skin aged constantly as if life was drained from her instantly. Her skin turned wrinkly and dry like a tree bark. The situation did
“Listen to my order, all members!”Meanwhile, Osiris spoke, his expression filled with ferocity . “Locate both of their bodies from the cliff at the fastest speed!”Upon saying that, he vanished from where he stood. Meanwhile, two people stood at a mysterious location that no one could see above Regicide Heofon’s ground. These two people were a man and a woman. The man was clad in armor and assumed the posture of an army general, filled with dominance. He exuded a powerful presence that had already surpassed the level of all powerhouses on earth. Even Osiris and Zayn were nothing in this man’s presence. On the other hand, the woman stood in front of the man. Her beauty was impeccable and she was as graceful as a fairy…The woman had her head lowered to look at the cliff ahead of her and cracked a peculiar smile. Speaking of which, it was not the first time these two people showed up on earth. They were the ones who brought up the live broadcast of Zayn and King Erik in Sha
