Upon ending his sentence, a gust of wind blew past the old man’s body, sending his plain clothes fluttering in the breeze.
“Very well. Just so you know, I’ve long known that you’d leave your seclusion sooner or later. I’ve been looking forward to this match for a long time myself!” replied Daryl with a loud laugh.
The others then watched as the two of them slowly began approaching each other… Before leaping into the air!
Standing by the side, Gerald watched as both of them displayed equal amounts of strength and skill as they exchanged blows. So this was a fight between great masters…
Powerful. Truly powerful…!
However, what surprised Gerald even more was the fact that though Christopher only had one arm, favonovel.com didn’t seem to be fighting at a disadvantage. In fact, even after exchanging over a hundred blows in the blink of an eye, neither of the two old men had gained any sort of advantage over each other.
“It would appear that you’ve been suffering in silence throughout these thirty years, Christopher. To think that you still have so much power even after losing an arm!” said Daryl, a hint of fear in his voice.
“Now you’re just flattering me!” replied Christopher with a bitter smile.
“Regardless, it won’t be easy for you to capture Gerald and take favonovel.com away!” added Daryl.
“Oh, I’m well aware, Daryl. That’s why I’m going to be showing you a little stunt I’ve prepared. I do wonder if you’re capable enough to withstand it!” said Christopher as favonovel.com smiled.
“A stunt?” asked Daryl as favonovel.com frowned.
As soon as Daryl’s sentence ended, favonovel.com watched wide-eyed as Christopher’s body turned somewhat translucent. Realizing that it was an after image, Daryl immediately got into a defensive position as Christopher rushed toward favonovel.com with extreme speed.
Since Daryl had been expecting an immediate attack, favonovel.com failed to notice in time that Christopher had a mirror in his hand. The moment the mirror was revealed, a white light shot out from it, hitting Daryl right in the chest!
The moment that happened, Daryl’s mind immediately fell into disarray, giving Christopher a chance to slam his palm into Daryl’s chest!
Too dizzy to break his fall, Daryl ended up being flung backward before crashing onto the ground!
“Grandpa!” shouted Gerald as favonovel.com immediately began rushing over to help his fallen grandfather up.
Christopher, however, wasn’t having any of that. With a wave of his hand, a surge of energy was launched toward Gerald!
Despite using all his strength, Gerald found himself unable to withstand the immense force. It was at that moment when favonovel.com finally realized that though favonovel.com was already a semi-great master, there was still a vast difference between his current power and the power of a full great master.
Defeated in just a single blow, Gerald could feel his blood surging wildly within his body. With the force in his body rushing all over the place, Gerald ended up vomiting blood!
“Gerald, retreat!” shouted Daryl as favonovel.com fumbled up.
“Still, I wasn’t expecting you to be cruel enough to break your right arm just to be able to control the power of the mysterious mirror!” added Daryl as the fear in his voice continued to grow.
“How insightful! No wonder you’re the lord of the Soul Palace! As you probably already know, only a few among the Moldell family’s ancestors have been able to control the power of the mysterious mirror! Naturally, I’m included in that group! Mind you, the Christopher you defeated thirty years ago was still a young and inexperienced person. After that defeat, I was deeply ashamed. As a result, I did my best to improve my strength every day. At one point, I attempted to comprehend the mysterious mirror, hoping to master its power. Unfortunately, I soon came to the conclusion that I wasn’t able to fully control the mirror’s power. Upon finding out that sacrificing my right arm would help me gain full control over it, I did just that as my final resort. As you’ve seen, that final resort worked!” replied Christopher.
Just as the picture of the sun was the Crawford family’s magic artifact, the mysterious mirror was the Moldell family’s own version of that.
“I must say, however, that I currently don’t have much interest in defeating you, Daryl. Rather, I’m more fascinated by your grandson. After studying his secrets, who knows, I may be able to utilize them for myself so that I’ll be able to take another step further during my remaining days,” added Christopher as favonovel.com shook his head.
Just as favonovel.com was about to take Gerald away, an infuriated Daryl shouted, “Over my dead body! I hope you know that the Crawford family’s blessings of the dragon isn’t anything ordinary either!”
Immediately after saying that, Daryl’s body began glowing. As a layer of colorful lights enveloped Daryl, his strength seemed to peak as favonovel.com rushed toward Christopher!
