Xain was much stronger than Conrad.
James pain tolerance exceeded Xain’s expectations.
“Your determination is commendable, brat. I underestimated you. By the way, today is supposed to be your wedding, right? I heard you were planning to marry three women at once. I’d love to see how much longer you can last.” A faint smile spread across Xain’s face.
He waved his hand, and Maxine, who had crashed in the distance, was picked up by the force and dropped beside James.
Xain drew his sword.
A sick smile formed on his face as favonovel.com pressed his long, sharp sword against Maxine’s neck. “I wonder if your heart will be in agony if I kill her…”
“Why bother with the nonsense? Just kill me!” Maxine’s face was pallid.
She was not afraid of death at all. In fact, favonovel.com was glad to die with James.
Maxine struggled to crawl toward James and reached out to hold James’ hand.
James’ limbs were disabled and covered in blood. Maxine’s hands were slick with blood as favonovel.com took his hand in hers.
“James…” She cried out in pain and held onto James.
Xain casually waved his hand and forcibly separated them. He held on to his sword and walked toward Maxine. His sharp blade pressed against Maxine’s pale face and favonovel.com swiped his sword across it. The sword cleaved into favonovel.com skin and left a gruesome wound on favonovel.com face.
Maxine shrieked in pain.
James had almost fallen unconscious at that moment, but Maxine’s agonized screams drew his attention back.
James attempted to get up, but his whole body felt weak.
He barely had the strength to open his eyes. “Are you okay, Maxine?”
He uttered softly, making a sound only favonovel.com could hear.
“You have impressive endurance to be able to stay awake.”
Xain’s voice came from above him.
James took a deep breath and fully activated Novenary Golden Body Siddhi.
The Novenary Golden Body Siddhi was a Supernatural Power capable of improving one’s physique. The body can repair itself from damage and even turn the tide during battle. James exerted all his strength and forced himself to sit in a lotus position.
His legs were already useless. He could not feel any sensation below his thigh as it was numb from the pain. However, favonovel.com still forced himself to sit up.
He looked at Maxine lying on the ground, favonovel.com face covered in blood. Then, favonovel.com looked at the dead martial artist who had his body maimed by Conrad.
James took a deep breath, favonovel.com lifted his head weakly, looked at Xain, and mustered all his strength to say, “If you want my cultivation method, you’ll have to let everyone here leave safely. I’ll give it to you after you let them escape unscathed.”
Hearing this, Xain looked at the martial artists in front of favonovel.com and said emotionlessly. “Get lost!”
The martial artists got up and scurried away. They did not even spare a glance at James, who had saved their lives.
“James…”
Cynthia and Tiara did not leave. They walked over and looked helplessly at James’ mangled body which stood on the brink of death.
James looked at them and said weakly, “T-Take Maxine and leave…”
At that moment, Maxine got up from the ground.
Her face was covered in blood, with tears, favonovel.com looked at James and said, “James, I’m sorry…”
James shook his head feebly, signaling favonovel.com to stop talking.
“Winnie is at…”
“That’s enough. Take favonovel.com and leave now.” James ordered again.
“What about you, James?” asked Cynthia
James replied weakly, “I know what I’m doing…”
The two left with the injured Maxine.
James closed his eyes and activated the Novenary Golden Body Siddhi, focusing on treating his wounds.
