Chapter 2040: Have You Had Enough?
Jericho Acevedo had just been injured while saving Dorian Acevedo, losing twenty percent of his combat strength due to the attack from the sixth-rank Perfection Emptiness Realm elder.
After a few more intense exchanges, Jericho was once again sent flying by a powerful strike.
“Do you now understand the consequences of meddling?” The sixth-rank Perfection Emptiness Realm elder charged at Jericho without hesitation.
“I said, after today, there will be no Blade and Sword Sect in Bladesong City!”
As he spoke, a powerful attack filled with immense energy was launched at Jericho, distorting the space around it.
Just as the attack was about to hit, a purple sword appeared like a flash of lightning.
Unity of man and sword!
The elder’s attack exploded, and the sword continued forward, unstoppable.
“What is that?” The sixth-rank Perfection Emptiness Realm elder frowned and dodged a hundred meters away.
Before he could see what the purple lightning was, the sword had already cut through his defensive aura and left a deep wound on his waist, causing blood to gush out as he was sent flying several hundred meters.
Purple Spirit’s surprise attack was always effective!
Normally, with her combat strength, it would be difficult to face a sixth-rank Perfection Emptiness Realm head-on. At best, she could hold her ground without losing. But with a successful surprise attack, the situation became manageable!
“Spiritual Line Origin?!” The elder finally saw what had attacked him.
“Come on, let’s fight fairly!” Purple Spirit shouted as she charged again.
Jericho Acevedo: “…”Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.
This little girl, you ambushed him with a sword and now you talk about a fair fight? Isn’t that a bit unfair?
After a brief pause, Jericho didn’t linger and followed her lead.
“You go help the others; I’ll handle him!” Purple Spirit called out to Jericho.
“Be careful!” Jericho didn’t insist. He knew that in his current state, he wouldn’t be much help. Besides, he could tell that the injured elder might not be a match for Purple Spirit.
With that, he dashed towards the other battle zones.
Meanwhile, Billy had joined Dorian Acevedo’s fight. Dorian was already covered in wounds from the attacks of the sixth-rank elder woman.
However, the elder woman wasn’t unscathed either; she had sustained some injuries, reducing her combat strength by ten to twenty percent.
Billy and Dorian’s combined attacks clashed with the elder woman’s, causing the space around them to crack.
The three of them were sent flying simultaneously.
“Mr. Billy, are you okay?” Dorian steadied himself and looked towards Billy.
“I’m fine!” Billy responded loudly.
With his bloodline power activated, Billy was at fifth-rank Entering Emptiness Realm. Although it was difficult to defeat the elder woman quickly, she also couldn’t easily harm him.
“You must be Billy?” The elder woman steadied herself and looked at Billy, shocked by his combat prowess.
“You guessed right!” Billy said in a deep voice and charged again.
“No matter how strong you are, today I’ll take you back to the Institute!” The elder woman shouted as she met his attack.
Their clash resulted in another stalemate. The elder woman could only muster fifth-rank Perfection Emptiness Realm strength, making it hard to gain an advantage over Billy’s full-powered Cracked Sky technique.
As they were sent flying again, Dorian charged at the elder woman with his sword emitting two sharp beams of light.
“Get lost!” The elder woman roared and deflected Dorian’s attack with a gust of wind.
Dorian spat blood and was sent flying like a leaf; he was now at his limit with less than fifty percent of his combat strength remaining.
As the elder woman swatted Dorian away, Billy attacked again. This time, his blade seemed even stronger than Cracked Sky, tearing through space with a longer rift.
He had clearly activated Phantom Blade Technique!
The Phantom Blade Technique was slightly superior to Cracked Sky in some aspects and had a larger attack range.
The elder woman, still recovering from her previous exertions, didn’t plan to clash head-on with Billy. She deflected his attack while dodging several hundred meters away.
To her shock, before she could stabilize herself, the blade light was already upon her.
The blade cut through her defense and left a gash on her arm, causing blood to spray out. She was fortunate that the blade’s power had waned; otherwise, she would have been in more trouble.
“You dare injure me? Die!” The elder woman sealed her wound with Chi power and roared in anger. Her hands moved rapidly, creating terrifying waves of energy that churned the air and threatened to collapse space itself.
Billy didn’t confront her head-on; he dodged her attacks while being pushed back several kilometers by the powerful shockwaves, blood constantly dripping from his mouth.
Billy could have completely avoided the attacks with his teleportation speed but chose not to. His goal was simple: to exhaust her Chi power. If he dodged too far away, she would stop attacking.
Unaware of Billy’s intentions, the elder woman grew increasingly furious after being injured by him. She launched relentless attacks at him, expending her Chi power recklessly.
Her rage only intensified as Billy’s resilience made her want to curse out loud.
“Have you had enough? It’s my turn now!” A few minutes later, as her attacks weakened noticeably, Billy’s voice rang out.
Thunder Blade tore through space, slashing down at the elder woman!
Phantom Blade Technique!
Unsurprisingly, after her frenzied attacks depleted her Chi power, she couldn’t muster enough strength. The blade light cut down from her shoulder, severing an arm and sending it flying into the air.
The elder woman screamed in agony as she plummeted several hundred meters.
“See you in your next life!” Billy’s voice reached her ears moments later.
“No…” she cried out in horror.
Before she could finish her sentence, the blade light flashed through her body, cutting her in half. Her two halves fell to the ground with an expression of utter unwillingness on her face.
A sixth-rank Perfection Emptiness Realm expert killed by a third-rank Entering Emptiness Realm-anyone would find it hard to accept!
After slaying her, Billy spat out another mouthful of blood. The battle had left him severely injured; he had taken many hits on purpose to provoke her into a frenzy.
“Mr. Billy, are you okay?” Dorian Acevedo approached and asked.
The shock in his heart was indescribable!
A sixth-rank Perfection Emptiness Realm expert was killed by him-if he hadn’t seen it with his own eyes, how could he believe it?
“Thank you for your concern, Sect Master. I’m fine!” Billy took out two healing pills and swallowed them.
Then he glanced at the other battle zones.
