Erik was right. Zayn literally crossed the lake on his feet at the speed of a bullet as though he was just waltzing through a normal road.To Erik, however, it was mind-blowing. This was so completely out of his understanding that he wondered if he was seeing things. So, to wake himself up, he pinched his thigh as hard as he could.A sharp pain flared from the spot at the same time he heard his students crying out in surprise. It was not a trick of the eyes—Zayn was indeed walking on water!More accurately, Zayn was running across water. For one, he had not become so divine that he could just cross the lake by walking. The actual mechanical secret lay in his speed—he was speeding through the water and was fast enough to generate enough drag force that combined with the thrust Zayn’s feet made as he sprinted, he pretty much zipped over the surface of the lake.Honestly, Zayn would not want to show off his capabilities in front of the ignorant masses if he could help it, but this was
Her exclamation shocked all three of her friends, who blurted out, “That’s him?!”“Oh my God, it’s really him! I heard that his powers had grown so much. It’s impossible to even ascertain anymore… Like, not even the she-devil Mia could match him! He killed her on the spot!”“Sh*t! No wonder he’s Guineve’s premier fighter! I ain’t surprised!”They were unbelievably and absurdly shocked. They stared in the direction Zayn had vanished, their minds still ringing and flabbergasted. It was a large lake with its opposite bank lying about three hundred meters and more away, yet Zayn managed to speed through it like it was a road on land. It was a testament to the level of his power!Lindsay’s eyes burned brightly in determination. Clenching her fists, she promised herself in a determined, gushing breath, “I’ll see you again, my idol! And I’ll make sure I become your student!”Zayn had no idea that Lindsay had set her eyes on him. If he had known, he would have been pretty miffed about it.
Still, Lysithea did not turn to meet Zayn. Her back remained against him.Zayn finally caught up with her and stopped. Any mere expert fighter would have been so fatigued and worn out by the high-speed marathon that they would have arrived dead, but to Zayn, it was just a warm-up. All it took was two breaths, and he felt his energy returning already.His eyes lingered around Lysithea’s back, fully understanding the fact that this was the closest he had ever gotten to be around her. He could sense that ethereality that seemed to make up most of her form. The dissociative feeling that she was never a real person but a puff of dancing smoke or a mirage. She was the fog itself—she could not possibly be real. If he looked away, she might even disappear at the first billow of the wind.The atmosphere gelled. There was a distance of ten meters between them, and an invisible wall of uncanniness was building fast the longer neither of them talked.Zayn was the one to break the ice. “So… wha
Zayn thought he had seen everything. He was no stranger to the best nature could offer when it came to women and their God-given beauty—Faye Carter, Shaelyn Peace, Mirabelle Owen, Alexandra Smith, Annabelle Laking, and so many more. He was supposed to be so immune to premier feminine charms by now, and yet when he laid his eyes on Lysithea, he was still profoundly, utterly bewitched.He wondered if he was looking at a dryad or a… fae.It was the first thing that came to his mind. He could believe she was a mortal woman. She must be nature’s spirit in humanoid form. There was more to her than just her almost miraculous beauty—there was an aureole of sublimity about her, an almost transcendental countenance that all the other beauties Zayn had ever met failed to measure up.The reason for that was simple: Lysithea was not a normal young woman. She was a superior class master fighter, one who had attained the fourth-tier, and her body had undergone the same morphological changes. She l
Zayn was stunned upon seeing that. He had not expected that a highly-skilled fighter like Lysithea would actually miss a step. Moreover, her face turned ghastly pale instantly. It was totally a reaction to a panic attack resulting from mental disturbance!He had only removed Lysithea’s face veil, did she need to go as far as to have such a huge reaction?Zayn felt rather frustrated in his heart. However, he still had to take action and save Lysithea now. After all, it would be bad for Lysithea to take a fall. Hence, he made a move swiftly by wrapping his arm around Lysithea’s body with unerring precision just before Lysithea was about to fall over. He had just come into physical contact with Lysithea when he discovered that she had an amazing figure, especially her bouncy, flexible waist and firm skin. By the time Lysithea reacted to the situation, she realized that she was actually leaning against Zayn’s chest. Instantly, she got even more agitated so she glared at Zayn. “You yo
Upon saying that, she stood straight, shut her eyes and assumed an expression as if she was ready to go all out. Zayn was stunned upon hearing her remark. He looked at her strangely and wondered if this woman was sick in the head?However, Zayn could not help shifting his gaze to Lysithea’s body following her remark. Lysithea was on his mother’s side regardless and she was here in Waltz City to protect him. After figuring this out, he felt that his anger was vented but he felt frustrated mainly. He waved his hand dismissively and said, “Forget it. You should leave, just think of it as me being unlucky.”Lysithea opened her eyes and watched as Zay stood up and left slowly. She felt very unpleasant in her heart. She chased after Zayn and stopped him in his way. She said in all apparent seriousness, “No, you have to slap me back! I don’t like to owe anyone favors in my life!”Zayn was all confused. What sort of ideology was that? He had already expressed his intention to forgive
Yes. No matter where Zayn decided to slap, it was inevitable that he would be taking advantage of a woman. It would be fine if she was just another woman yet Lysithea was not just any other ordinary woman but she was sent by his mother. Lysithea was growing impatient. She opened her eyes and said with furrowed brows, ‘Hey, will you pick up the pace. You’re a man yet you’re fussy like a woman.”Zayn was rendered speechless by her remark. Could he not fuss about this matter?However, Zayn was feeling rather emotional about this frankly. After all, Lysithea was a tier-4 master fighter and she was so beautiful. It would be a rather good idea if he could take advantage of her too…Bah, bah, bah, what the heck was he thinking? Zayn inhaled a deep breath and suppressed the distracting thoughts. Then, he calmed down and came up with an idea. Lysithea wanted him to slap her back anyhow and she did not mention how heavy he should slap so he would just humor her by simply giving a slap a
“Shut up!”Lysithea did not wait for him to finish his sentence, instead interrupting him brutally. He glared at him, gnashing her teeth in anger. She was breathing rapidly and heaving violently, even Diego had never stirred up such intense emotions in her all this time. However, she found that she could not bring herself to hate Zayn because Zayn was Aunt Hayley’s only son. She let out a heavy grunt, glared at Zayn once then walked away. In the end, she still turned around and instructed Zayn, “You’re not telling anyone about what happened today!”What else could Zayn have said but he could only nod in a haste. Zayn confirmed that Lysithea had left and that she would not return anymore before he allowed himself to heave a sigh of relief. He rubbed his chest and exhaled a metallic breath that stank of blood. It was fortunate that he had a strong body, or else he would have crumpled from the slap.It was of the essence that he had realized that Lysithea’s power seemed to ha
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
