Chapter 428: You Don’t Have the Ability!
Clang!
When that Allen family spy was going to hit Eduard’s body with his sword, something unexpected happened, and a metallic sound reverberated through that place.
“What?” The man who had attempted this attack exclaimed in shock. He then looked in front of him and blinked a few times, as if he didn’t believe his eyes.
He saw a strange person suddenly appearing in front of his opponent and using a golden sword to stop the attack that was meant to take Eduard’s life!
“What?” The other people in this group said this almost simultaneously, still moving back and forth in that part of the forest as they continued their fights.
A cultivator could easily pay attention to more than one problem. After all, spiritual energy could also elevate the mental capacity of living beings. And unless a person were in a life and death situation, such a thing would be as easy to accomplish as drinking water.
They could probe their surroundings with their spiritual sense and fight their opponents without missing the other side’s moves!
And right now, the side of the spies that had been chasing these two bodyguards had the full advantage and could afford to do so. That’s because the most significant danger at the beginning of the fight had already passed, and the two bodyguards had already been in passive positions for some time.
As for Ernest, he struggled to withstand this fight, being in a situation as serious as Eduard’s!
These two only managed to eliminate one opponent from this enemy group since the beginning of the fight. After that, they had only been pressured by the other side until they reached the present moment.
“Who are you? Why are you interfering with our matters?” The Spiritual King of the group of spies asked this as he probed the surroundings. ‘Level 44… but this sword is a medium-level grade-2 one! How does he manage to use it?’ This man thought to himself, slowly realizing that there was another person around.
And finally, before he had his question answered, a young woman wearing a mask and with blue hair appeared on top of one of the trees in that place.
Minos then smiled under his golden mask and said. “Who I am doesn’t matter. But I know these people, so I decided to stop and help.”
Hearing that voice, Eduard, who was already exhausted by that time, leaning with his hands on his knees and breathing hurriedly, turned his head to the side and looked at Minos. ‘What luck! We are saved!’ He thought to himself, having recognized the voice of the young ruler of the Black Plain.
And really, luckily for these two, Minos had seen Eduard in Dahlia in those days when they were both there.
At that time, he and Abby had just left one of the city’s properties specializing in the sale of spiritual medicines when two severely injured men passed them on their way to seek medical attention in the exact location.
And as thoughtful as he was, Minos had recognized Eduard, who, despite having advanced to the 6th stage of cultivation, hadn’t changed as much as Dillian.
After all, this tall, muscular man could still be considered young when he leveled up to this stage. So, despite having improved, his appearance hadn’t changed to the point where he couldn’t be recognized!
Anyway, after recognizing this old acquaintance, Minos and Abby had watched them from afar without making contact. They already knew that these two were being persecuted, and because of that, it would not have been opportune for them to show up to help these men in that city.
That could be treated as a clue by the Allen family, something that could leak out of Dahlia, which Minos didn’t want.
Minos and Abby had just hired a person to advise them of the actions of these two men so that they would have the opportunity to meet them in a more discreet location…
Because, even though forest regions are considered quite open, if someone were stronger than their opponents, leaking information would be impossible in places like that!
On the other hand, it would be challenging to act inside a big city. Many guards were spread all over the districts, and several specialists could notice incidents. In this case, not only was there the possibility of opponents retreating, but there was also the chance that he and Abby would have to flee the rulers of that place.
Dahlia naturally had its own rules and punishments, and whoever got caught wouldn’t have a nice time…
For all that, young Stuart had only observed the situation and then chased Eduard and Ernest from a safe distance!
Anyway, upon hearing Minos’ answer, those two men facing Eduard looked at each other for a moment, and then the strongest of them said. “You seem quite capable, as you can wield this medium-level grade-2 sword… But don’t think that just because you have a lot of physical strength that you can interfere in this fight!”
“I’ll give you a chance. Get out of this place now, or I won’t mind killing you!” He said that while he had a darkened appearance on his face.
This man could sense that Minos was too strong to handle the weight of a weapon of that rank. That’s why he didn’t want to risk having this person as his enemy in this fight.
However, he genuinely believed that as incredible as this person was to achieve such a feat, at only level 44, this stranger would not be a threat to the spies group!
“Oh? I’m afraid you don’t have the ability!” Minos said.
“What did you say?” The other individual, who had had his attack prevented by Minos, screamed in a fury, feeling humiliated by the words of this masked person.
Hearing such words from a person, so many levels below theirs was truly humiliating for these proud cultivators…
Minos then turned to the side where Abby was standing and waved at her, indicating what they had agreed earlier.
After that, he quickly said a few words to Eduard while he was distancing himself from this man little by little. “Go help your associate, and don’t forget to stay out of my technique’s area of influence.”
“OK.”
After that, Minos gradually started activating his techniques one by one while looking at those two opponents. “Well, there’s no need to talk anymore, be careful. I don’t take it easy!”
When he finished saying that, a large ring appeared around the masked youth’s body, as he suddenly moved at high speed, already making a series of movements with his weapon.
Spatial Sword!
And upon sensing young Stuart’s movement, the two men who had been fighting Eduard earlier were deeply shocked at what this new opponent was doing to them. They had their eyes and mouths wide open at that moment, while their bodies were simultaneously experiencing incredible weight and loss of spiritual energy.
‘Shit, how can this be?’ The level 49 spy wondered, already trying to activate his defense and movement techniques in an attempt to escape Minos’ onslaught.
But that was useless. With the strength of these two men, there would be no way for them to escape or pose any danger to young Stuart. One of them could even give this young man some work for a while, but as for the other…
It was simply impossible for him to survive a single Minos sword attack!
And that’s what happens…
While moving at high speed through that place, Minos sent a strong attack in the direction of Mick, the Spiritual King, while slashing with his medium-level grade-2 sword against the other man’s neck.
And in a split second, Minos ended the life of that level 49 person, cutting off this man’s head in a single millisecond.
However, young Stuart did not stop there. No, he didn’t even turn his face to see that person’s head falling to the ground when he ran towards Mick, attacking him mercilessly!
“Ahhhh!”
After Minos’ sudden entry into that battle, the first scream of pain was generated in that spot, when the third person in the group of spies died, at the hands of Abby…
