“What is that brat smirking at?”
Hidden once more within a spatial rift, the brown-robed Lord felt a shiver run down his spine as he observed the faint grin on Leo Ray’s face.
Despite his refusal to back down verbally during their earlier clash, he couldn't deny that Leo Ray’s monstrous power had unsettled him. It was practically beyond belief that a Tier 5 peak Cultivation practitioner could hold his own against two half-step Tier 6 experts simultaneously.
That being said, the Tier 6 Absolute Defense Scroll used previously was surely the boy's final trump card. Now that such a priceless life-saving treasure had been spent, there was no possibility of another miracle occurring under the combined might of three Tier 6 experts.
In his mind, that loser was already a dead man!
With that thought, the brown-robed Lord’s sneer returned, his expression twisting into a malicious grin.
“To put on such a pathetic show of bravado in the face of certain death is truly laughable.”
Nearby, the Lord in black armor remained blatantly arrogant, his features radiating a sense of absolute superiority.
He took great pride in his Concealing Technique; it was so sophisticated that even standard Tier 6 experts struggled to detect him. What possible countermeasure could such a loser possess?
The moment his three Tier 6 subordinates finished the boy off, every treasure on that loser's corpse would belong to him!
As these greedy thoughts crossed the black-armored Lord's mind, the lethal blades of the three Tier 6 experts descended upon Leo Ray with the crushing momentum of three collapsing mountain peaks!
Boom! Boom! Boom!
A series of thunderous explosions followed, sending a violent shockwave of Qi rippling outward and kicking up a massive wall of water around Leo Ray once again.
Watching the destruction, the malicious smiles on the faces of both the brown-robed Lord and the black-armored Lord widened, their eyes filled with cruel amusement.
An onslaught of that caliber was sufficient to strike down even a prepared Tier 6 expert with ease. The kid was finished.
Qunnie Young’s face drained of color at the sight. She wasn't alone; Ethan Young and the others locked in desperate combat also glanced over, their expressions reflecting deep grief.
Regardless of how extraordinary Liam Sanders had proven to be, he was likely doomed. His fall would inevitably signal the end for the rest of them.
However, a second later, another surge of fierce energy erupted through the sky and earth, blowing the massive wall of water apart and leaving everyone paralyzed with shock.
As the spray began to settle, the crowd was stunned to see two figures—one tall and one short—standing firmly in the heart of the crater. The taller figure was a completely unscathed Leo Ray!
Beside him stood the slender and elegant form of Little Jie.
The moment Leo Ray had sensed the enemy's intent earlier, he had acted decisively to summon Little Jie and deploy the “Lord’s Shelter” Absolute Defense Barrier.
Though the coordinated strike of the three Tier 6 attackers was terrifying, Little Jie’s secret construction spell possessed extraordinary power. Combined with the steady flow of energy provided by Leo Ray, the barrier held firm against the assault.
Seeing Leo Ray standing tall, Ethan Young and Qunnie Young were overcome with relief and joy. Conversely, the brown-robed Lord and the black-armored Lord looked as if their eyes were about to pop out of their sockets.
The Lord in black armor was particularly shaken; his previous arrogance vanished instantly. His eyes darted frantically through the falling mist, searching for his three Tier 6 subordinates, who represented his most powerful assets.
His gaze soon landed on a spot near Leo Ray, where he found his three elite henchmen transformed into frozen statues, slumped motionless on the ground.
Noticing the black-armored Lord’s horrified stare, Leo Ray tilted his head slightly.
This was the origin of that final burst of power. After utilizing Little Jie to block the initial strike, Leo Ray had immediately triggered a Tier 6 ice-element attack scroll known as “Freeze Technique.”
Leo Ray had employed this spell in the past and knew its characteristics well. While its area of effect was quite narrow compared to standard spells, it released an incredible burst of localized force that could even rival Elder Bing. It was the perfect tool for a close-quarters ambush.
Consequently, the three attackers had been instantly encased in ice.
“Under normal circumstances, even a spell as potent as Freeze Technique would struggle to lock down three Tier 6 experts simultaneously. However, they were so certain of their victory that they completely neglected their Dantian defenses. It isn't surprising they ended up like this.”
“To put it simply, they were defeated by nothing more than their own hubris and the mistake of underestimating me.”
Leo Ray raised his eyebrows and gave his magic wand a casual flick. Three brilliant bolts of lightning struck from the heavens, shattering the three ice sculptures into a thousand fragments.
“You brat, I will tear your limbs from your body!”
Witnessing his strongest followers reduced to a pile of frozen shards, the black-armored Lord’s eyes turned crimson with bloodlust. He let out a roar of pure, murderous fury.
“Regrettably, you won't be getting that opportunity.”
The moment Leo Ray finished speaking, a razor-sharp rapier silently punched through the black-armored Lord’s chest, trailing a spray of crimson blood.
As the blade was swiftly retracted, the Lord's lifeless corpse crashed heavily to the earth. His bloodshot eyes, still filled with a mix of rage and disbelief, slowly glazed over as the light of life faded from his rigid face.
