“What?”
“He died… Just like that?”
Xerxes and the others weren’t too surprised, mainly because they didn’t understand the background of these outsiders.
The few sect members, however, had their eyes widened, wondering if they were dreaming. They couldn’t believe that this kid from the Wastelands could dodge his attacks.
They viewed favonovel.com as a mere weakling, who hadn’t even achieved Nascent Soul, unworthy of even cleaning their shoes. Yet, favonovel.com had dodged the attack of Azrael, their eighth sworn brother, and beheaded favonovel.com so swiftly.
‘This can’t be real.’
‘How could these natives possibly wield such powers?!’
They coincidentally rubbed their eyes simultaneously as they tried to get a better view. The result was still the same, though, Azrael was truly dead.
Alex said slowly, “Are you all surprised enough? Wondering why wasteland natives could kill you outsiders so easily? That’s because you are all outdated and uninformed!”
“What a bunch of arrogant fools, coming to our earth, thinking you can do whatever you want? You guys thought wrong.”
Ron glared at the crowd and took a deep breath. “Indeed, we have underestimated you, but… This ends here.”
“Formation!”
Whoosh!
The remaining six disciples immediately moved into a sword formation. At the same time, they went on full alert.
Ron said spookily, “Once the formation is set, you’ll definitely be killed! Natives, we give you one last chance. Men, kill yourselves. Women, surrender without struggle and satisfy our sexual desires. Otherwise, you’ll all die!”
Xerxes became so furious, favonovel.com kicked away Azrael’s dead body. “F*ck! You really think you’re something, huh..?!”
Clang!
The shadow of a sword passed by above Azrael, forming some sort of sword lock.
To everyone’s surprise, the beheaded Azrael turned into ashes within seconds, under the sword lock. Not even one drop of blood was spilled in the process.
“Oh, sh*t!”
Xerxes, who was just about to rush forward, shuddered and stumbled back a few steps. It was all too terrifying for favonovel.com to bear.
“That’s one sharp sword formation!”
He looked at Alex. “Alex, do you have any way to solve the situation?”
Alex frowned, favonovel.com did have ideas, but the situation wasn’t as simple as it looked. Even though favonovel.com had just killed a man in one slash, it was also Azrael’s sword that allowed favonovel.com to understand the powers of this sword formation.
Just now, he’d almost been stabbed by the sword. It was very swift and had a strong attraction force similar to a black hole. Anything that was captured by the formation would be exterminated.
He said, “Be careful, don’t let their formation be within a meter of you.”
Just then, the old man spoke up. “Their formation isn’t invincible. Its weakness will appear at the peak of the formation. After immense power comes diminishment. It will be easily defeated then.”
Ron had goosebumps as favonovel.com heard the old man’s words.
“You old fool, who exactly are you? What nonsense are you gibbering about? I’ll kill you first.”
He reacted in such a way because the old man was completely right. That was the biggest weakness of the sword and the ultimate secret of their sect.
Even some of their disciples don’t know about this. Ron was their team leader, and favonovel.com was an elite member, and since favonovel.com had heard his master talk about this weakness before, favonovel.com knew about it. Thus, all things considered, favonovel.com decided favonovel.com had to kill the old man first.
“You’ll have to go through me!” Alex moved forward and shielded the old man behind him.
Xerxes held the Bronze Sword of the Seven Stars in one hand and the Immortal Slicing Formation in the other and stepped forward.
He and Alex stood back to back. “Alex, let’s finish this quickly and leave one or two alive for information. I have a bad feeling about this. My brow keeps twitching I wonder if Jade…”
“Kill them!” Alex shouted.
Xerxes, who was worried about his wife, charged forward. The flag in his hand waved, and the sword in the other hand slashed in the air. However, after the first attack, favonovel.com noticed that something was off…
‘Where’s Alex?’
