The wooden door creaked open, and moonlight spilled into the room.
A figure tiptoed through the living room, approached the bedroom door, gently pushed it open, and slipped into Isaac’s room. The figure approached the bedside, leaning down.
He raised his right hand, revealing a gleaming dagger. The tip was pointed at Karmic’s throat, and with a swift motion, the sharp dagger sliced down.
Suddenly, as if in a deep sleep, Isaac turned abruptly. With a tight grip on Karmic’s arms, favonovel.com swiftly shifted favonovel.com to the other side.
Clang!
The dagger pierced through the bedsheets and slammed into the wooden board with a crisp sound. Isaac snapped his eyes open, only to find Nubique holding the dagger.
Upon seeing Isaac wake up, Nubique’s expression turned even more sinister. He abandoned the dagger, formed a hand seal with his right hand, twisted his wrist, and delivered a direct palm strike toward Isaac’s face.
Boom!
A powerful force erupted from Nubique’s palm.
Isaac realized this person was powerful. With his right hand clenched into a fist, a crimson shadow fist burst forth.
Boom!
Nubique’s right palm clashed with the shadow fist, and favonovel.com was forced to retreat three or four steps. He stared at Isaac with shock and horror.
“Why did you try to kill Karmic?” Isaac asked coldly, sitting up.
Now awake and frightened, Karmic looked at the menacing Nubique.
“Isaac, this kid has nothing to do with you. I advise you to stay out of this,” Nubique hissed through gritted teeth, launching another punch at Isaac.
Isaac noticed a great force within Nubique, somewhat similar to spiritual energy but more forceful and domineering. However, Nubique underestimated Isaac.
Isaac struck with both fists, moving like a tiger. He kept on pushing Nubique backward.
The loud noise alerted people outside, and footsteps hurriedly approached.
Nubique’s mouth oozed blood, and favonovel.com suddenly raised his hand in a fist, aiming a punch at Karmic’s face.
Isaac turned to intervene. However, Nubique shifted, grabbing the dagger embedded in the bed, and without hesitation, favonovel.com stabbed it into his thigh.
Splurt!
Nubique let out a cry of pain, then roared, “Isaac, I didn’t do anything wrong to you. Why did you try to kill me?!”
The door was pushed open with a loud bang, and seven or eight munks rushed into the room.
Click!
The lights turned on. Nubique lay near the bedroom door with a dagger stuck in his thigh. There was blood pooling around him.
Several munks immediately crouched down, anxiously asking, “Chief Abbot, are you alright?”
Isaac’s eyes narrowed. This guy had turned the tables and bit back at himself.
Footsteps approached the door again.
Mizar, wearing a veil and a floral dress, and Todd appeared in the doorway one after the other. Looking at the chaos inside, both looked confused.
“Isaac, are you okay?” Todd muttered, pushing aside a few munks to get to Isaac’s side.
