Morgan arrived without any detectable spiritual energy fluctuations, much like the man in black, leaving almost everyone present unaware of his approach until favonovel.com was nearly upon them.
This could have been due to their vastly superior strength, or perhaps both had honed their spiritual energy to the zenith of concealment.
The man in black’s gaze shifted slightly upon noticing Morgan.
“General Yule, save me!” Recognizing Morgan, Hugh clearly prioritized his survival above all else despite having disgraced him.
Lucius, Linus, and the others also knelt in unison, exclaiming, “General Yule!”
Every member of Isaac’s group directed their attention toward Morgan at this.
Hera, in particular, had a pale face. Her body also started to quiver.
“Your Excellency, do you still intend not to release him?” Morgan pointed toward Hugh beneath the man in black’s foot.
“General Yule? Were you the first general under Gael Garten of the Emerald Hall?” The man in black eased his foot off Hugh and turned to face Morgan.
Morgan’s eyes narrowed in surprise, evidently not expecting his identity to be recognized so soon.
However, Morgan’s demeanor quickly hardened. “Why did you say so? I am beholden to no one! Show your face, and I might leave your corpse intact. The strength of the early stage of the Soul Phase is as insignificant as ants to me!”
This disclosure caused Isaac, Hera, and the others to fix their eyes on the man in black.
They now understood his formidable Soul Phase strength, which accounted for his ability to overpower Hugh with such ease.
Isaac was particularly surprised to discover such a master hidden in the martial world.
“Let’s try, then!” the man in black suddenly bellowed, his form darting forward with lightning speed to unleash a palm strike at Morgan.
The dark spiritual energy erupting from his arm swiftly morphed into a massive 15-foot-long black tiger, hurtling toward Morgan’s head.
A cold smile briefly crossed Morgan’s expression. He extended his right hand, and a deep blue beam of light shot out from it, piercing the forehead of the oncoming black tiger like a laser.
With a muffled explosion, the giant spiritual black tiger shattered into fragments and vanished into the night air.
Morgan’s right hand swept through the air once more. Then, favonovel.com unleashed a deep blue spiritual energy that moved even swifter than the man in black’s assault.
The spiritual energy merged into a palm-sized force midair merely a few feet from his palm. This deep blue force struck directly at the man in black‘s chest.
The man’s eyes widened in alarm as favonovel.com frantically twisted his body to evade the lethal strike aimed at his heart. Although favonovel.com avoided a direct hit to his heart, the blue force still hit the man’s shoulder.
The spiritual energy exploded upon impact, instantly shattering the man’s shoulder and propelling his body backward. He soared through the air, covering a distance of over 90 feet, then crashed against a tree before finally slumping to the ground.
Morgan spared no further attention to the man in black, shifting his focus to Isaac instead.
“Gael’s illegitimate offspring. I never anticipated our paths would cross after so many years…”
A smile briefly crossed Morgan’s lips. His eyes flashed with what seemed like a hint of warmth before it was swiftly replaced by a deep chill.
“Had your father not intervened back then, you would have been calling me ‘uncle’ now.” Morgan’s words were tinged with what appeared to be profound regret.
Isaac met Morgan’s gaze with an icy stare, responding rudely, “I’m aware of your desire to kill me. Spare me the sentimental theatrics and proceed with your intent.”
Before Morgan arrived, Isaac had consumed two Awakening Pills, allowing the depleted spiritual energy in his power core to recover to about 60%.
Morgan paused for a while as favonovel.com observed the red gleam in Isaac‘s eyes. Then, favonovel.com burst into laughter.
