“Isaac, don’t be reckless; he’s provoking you. Don’t worry. I’d rather die than allow them to have their way!” Evie glanced at Isaac. Her voice was shaking but determined.Evie wasn't sure if Isaac would be able to withstand Cyrus and the other two warriors' combined attacks, but she was certain that she’d never turn away from Isaac when he was in danger.Alexis’ heart raced, and she felt warmth. She stared blankly at Evie’s silhouette.She never thought Evie would feel this way toward Isaac.At that moment, Isaac touched Evie’s shoulder and leaned closer. His voice was deep as he said, “Silly girl. I’m a man; that won’t be me if I ever need you to protect me. I should be the one protecting you.”Evie was stunned. Suddenly, a pair of hands grabbed her by her waist. He tugged and turned her around to face him.The next moment, Isaac tilted his head and kissed her.Evie’s mind was blank. This lunatic! Wh—what was he doing?Her arms froze in the air as though she had been turned i
The four of them walked up from four directions, each of their bodies exuding a powerful force. Cyrus and his men didn’t even dare let out a breath.It felt like four large mountains had fallen from the sky and onto their heads. Over a thousand of the weaker Eastwell soldiers fell straight to their knees due to the oppressive spiritual energy pressing inward from four directions. Hundreds of them suddenly turned pale and coughed up blood from their internal injuries.On the other hand, Isaac was still kissing Evie, his hand caressing her face. Even though Isaac’s body pressed into her, Evie didn’t feel any of the pressure. Her focus was more on the power and heat of the man in front of her.Her initial shock had disappeared. She was now lost in the moment, unable to get out.With a gasp, Isaac finally let her go. Looking into Evie’s dazed eyes and seeing the blush on her face, he laughed lightly and said, “Eradicate the Eastwell Army. Leave no one alive!”Elliot, who was standing
"Ah!”Lewis wasn’t as fast at the web of spiritual energy swords behind him. His body was rooted to the spot as if a laser web had passed through him.The next second, there were strange swishing noises, and his body fell to the floor in chunks. He'd been sliced up by the web of swords.Cedric screamed in devastation, “Lewis! Damien, you bastard, you’ll get it from me!”Cyrus, who was fighting Elliot, also saw what had happened. He was both shocked and infuriated to see Damien kill Lewis so casually.Just then, a red shadow palm crashed over Cyrus' head with the force of a mountain. Distracted, he dodged it subconsciously, but Elliot suddenly materialized in front of him, wearing a wicked smile.He thrust his palm into Cyrus’ chest.With a loud crack, Cyrus’ ribs broke, and his face twisted with agony. He opened his mouth to spit up blood, his body flying backward.Cedric, who’d begun battling Damien in a rage, accidentally exposed a chink in his armor. Damien took the opportu
Xayden couldn't help but shiver when he saw how Isaac looked at him. His body began to tremble as if he’d been plunged into an icy lake.Isaac's declaration that he would kill Cyrus and Xayden instilled fear in everyone. Not just Evie's subordinates but also Evie and Alexis shuddered involuntarily.“Isaac!” Evie looked at the man beside her, her face flushed. She bit her lip and shook her head.She didn’t want Isaac to do that. If he did, he'd definitely incur the wrath of the entire Neal family.Although Cyrus was one of the members of the Council of Elders, the Neal family had stronger powers than met the eye.“I—Isaac, you're so arrogant. If you kill us tonight, I swear that the Astraeus and the Neal family will not rest until they see to your death!” Cyrus growled, his eyes turning bloodshot.Before Isaac could respond, Evie suddenly tugged on his arm.“Don’t!” She shook her head, looking at him dazedly.Isaac frowned. After giving it some thought, he raised his right hand,
A distance away, Alexis opened her mouth to cough up a mouthful of blood. Agony and shock were written on her face.Isaac raised a hand, and a beam of light shot past, dissipating the invisible but lethal breath of air in front of him.“Cyrus, you are also an elder. This is improper. Get up.” Glenn grabbed Cyrus and hauled him to his feet.“First Elder, please save us. This beast has already killed thousands of my Eastwell soldiers. If you hadn’t made it here in time, my grandson and I may have already… may have already been sent to the netherworlds!” Cyrus groused, gritting his teeth and choking back tears.Glenn looked at Isaac, then at the four generals before shifting his gaze back to Isaac’s face.“Isaac, although the Temple of Drakon is powerful, you are still based overseas. What is your intention behind coming to the nine states and killing ruthlessly? Are you declaring war against the Astraeus?” Glenn’s voice was so thunderous that the others couldn’t help but shiver.Ev
“The audacity!”Seeing Damien spring to action, Glenn’s face darkened. He raised his hand, casting a purple shadow fist that looked almost solid to counter Damien’s shadow fist.Almost simultaneously, Isaac swung the sword in his hand, and a shadow sword flew toward the purple shadow fist.When the other three generals saw Glenn attack, they darted toward Damien to help him.The red shadow sword collided with the purple shadow fist. The two powerful sources of spiritual energy touched, trembled for a couple of seconds, and then exploded before disappearing in the air.Glenn stared at Isaac in shock.He had channeled his shadow fist for quite a while, but Isaac’s shadow sword seemed to have been cast on a whim and had even easily broken his shadow fist.When Xayden saw Damien approaching him, he hid behind his grandfather, terrified.“Everyone, go!” Glenn yelled. The three other men donned dark red robes charged at the three generals behind Damien.Alexis watched the men change
A domineering red shadow fist plunged deep into Cyrus’ body. In the next instant, Isaac decimated Cyrus’ power core with one punch.“Ah…” Cyrus cradled his stomach, letting out a gut-wrenching scream before falling to the floor.Glenn had been fighting with Damien at that moment. When he saw what had happened, he was both surprised and enraged.Even more shockingly, this elegant-looking man had already taken over thirty of his attacks but still hadn’t shown any hint of being unable to keep up.Glenn turned around and took a huge leap, roaring, “Stop right now!” Both parties quickly separated. Neither was injured; both were only breathing slightly heavily, especially Damien. One could see the sweat beaded on his forehead at a closer look.Only he knew how terrifying that First Elder was. He even suspected that Glenn was still hiding some of his abilities.The hundreds of Eastwell soldiers and the men that Glenn had brought were all staring at Cyrus, who was rolling on the floor,
“Isaac, you were too impulsive today. Do you know what kind of consequences your actions will bring?” Evie looked at Isaac with a bitter expression after they returned to the division building.Isaac shrugged and said nonchalantly, “Even if I'd let the Neals go, there would only be more trouble. Now that Xayden’s dead, at least he can’t keep thinking of ways to make you marry him.”Evie was taken aback by his words. Warmth bloomed in her chest. Had he done that so that she could avoid marrying Xayden?“I’ll be away for a while tomorrow. Isaac, you need to take care of yourself.” Evie’s cheeks were a little hot. As soon as she finished speaking, she quickly turned around and went inside.A beautiful woman strode over. Stopping in front of Isaac, she said, “Mr. Garten, Ms. Lopez has prepared the guest room for you. Please follow me.”“No need. I’ll be going down the mountain tonight.” Isaac waved his hand, declining.Suddenly, he leaned close to the woman and whispered, “If anythin
