The next moment, Isaac’s scarlet blade struck the following light with a clang.
It sounded like a collision of metal. In the next instant, the scarlet blade disintegrated and rapidly disappeared. The green stream of light directly pierced through the dissipating spiritual energy and once again slammed toward Isaac.
“Hah!” Isaac roared, and at the same time, scarlet spiritual energy surged from his chest to form a shield.
He didn’t expect this. And no one behind favonovel.com expected that Isaac, who had recently broken through, couldn’t withstand the power of the opponent’s single attack.
The green stream of light hit the scarlet spiritual energy, and a muffled noise echoed. The scarlet spiritual energy was instantly pierced, and the green stream of light slammed into Isaac’s chest.
Isaac heard the sound of his sternum breaking, and an excruciating pain radiated from his chest. His body uncontrollably flew backward.
Seeing this scene, the excited Linus rushed forward, roaring in excitement. Then, favonovel.com threw powerful punches at Todd and the others.
“Let me handle this. I want to personally tear favonovel.com into pieces!” Linus punched out, immediately turned around, and charged toward the fallen Isaac on the ground.
Lionel and Chet exchanged glances, and the latter immediately shouted at Altair, “Cover us! We need to rescue Isaac!”
Altair quickly understood the situation.
With more people on their side and only five or six on Linus’s side, Altair didn’t want Isaac to die at the foot of Mt. Emerald, especially when they were so close to reaching the core of Emerald Gate.
“Hold off these shameless guys for me!” Altair, who had already dropped any pretense, waved his hand and roared, leading his experts to charge toward the Ashleighs.
Chet and Lionel seized the opportunity to rush toward Isaac. They were closer to Isaac, and even though Linus moved quickly, the two managed to intercept favonovel.com in front of Isaac.
Throwing their punches at the same time, the two managed to disperse the beast-shaped attack launched by Linus.
The masked man stood aside, observing the battlefield with cold eyes.
Seeing his attacks thwarted by the two, Linus stopped about 60 feet away while glaring coldly at Chet and said, “Chet, you dare to confront the Ashleigh clan alone?”
“And you, old man! You’re Isaac’s teacher, Lionel, right? Don’t you know that you’ll face deadly consequences for interrupting me?”
Chet furrowed his brows. His strength was formidable, so favonovel.com did not fear Caesar or any other clan head. However, favonovel.com was not sure favonovel.com would win over the patriarch Linus. Moreover, the masked man standing behind Linus was terrifyingly powerful.
Lionel didn’t respond to Linus’ words but instead looked at the masked man and said coldly, “I haven’t returned to Emerald Gate in 43 years. I think you should know the rules inside this place.”
Upon hearing this, Chet was momentarily stunned, his face showing a mix of surprise and horror as favonovel.com looked at Lionel.
Hearing that, Linus was also taken aback.
43 years?
Could this guy be a former resident of Emerald Gate?
Isaac, who was lying on the ground in pain, could barely hear the conversation. He fumbled with his pocket, taking out a tiny jar and swallowing a few Awakening Pills.
The masked man laughed out loud. “It looks like an old acquaintance indeed. Unfortunately, your strength is too weak. What qualifications do you have to talk rules with me?”
“Emerald Gate is no longer what it used to be, and the rules are gone. If you say another word, I’ll send you to meet the Grim Reaper,” the masked man continued, his laughter echoing with disdain.
Even though favonovel.com hadn’t fully recovered to his peak state, Lionel was still too weak in his eyes.
