Ch. 3721..3730
The tripartite alliance has been putting a lot of pressure on everyone recently. If even the most seasoned fighters like us are struggling with it, what else can we expect from a child? She may be powerful, but I doubt her emotional resilience is as strong as ours.
“When the war begins, we have to do whatever it takes to get Evie out of here safely,” Azure Dragon added with determination.
The others instantly nodded in agreement. After all, Forlevia was their last hope, and as long as she had enough time, she’d have no problem reaching the pinnacle.
Just then, one of their subordinates reported, “Urgent news! Several elites have launched a surprise attack on us, and our guards on the outer perimeter can’t hold up much longer.”
Needless to say, Phoenix and the rest were dumbfounded. “What?”
“Let’s counterattack according to plan and deploy elites to protect Boss. He can’t move in his current condition,” Azure Dragon ordered.
As he marched off with his men, he tasked some of them to protect Levi and Forlevia while the others gathered forces to prepare for battle.
Floyd, who was patrolling the perimeter, was the first to get wind of the Ecclesiastic Order’s surprise attack.
“Everyone, stay calm. Let me meet with Master Thundera first.”
He had been saving his strength for the upcoming battle and hoping his efforts would help solidify his reputation in the base.
Moreover, after having gone on a spree of devouring energy, there was no doubt that his cultivation level had improved by leaps and bounds.
To top it all off, Floyd knew that with Gloria’s guidance, he’d be invincible once he wiped out the likes of Kenfort’s Paladins.
“Get out of my way!” he bellowed as he ran through the base. “I’ll handle that old geezer Master Thundera!”
Upon seeing how fearless Floyd was, everyone made way for him excitedly.
“That’s Floyd for you! His bravado is becoming more and more like Master’s!”
“Indeed. I hope he destroys Master Thundera!”
“But he has many Kenfort fighters with him!”
With that, a cloud of gloom once again engulfed the base.
Meanwhile, Floyd had reached the frontline, only to see Thundera overpowering their guards with ease.
“Hey, old fart! Take this!” he shouted as he aimed a palm strike at the latter’s chest.
Having no intention of dodging Floyd’s attack, Thundera rushed forward to meet head-on with him. “Ah, you must be Floyd. Since you have a death wish, I shall help you fulfill it!”
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Both men had unleashed clouds of terrifying energy aura, and the noise from their collisions was absolutely deafening.
Initially, Thundera had thought Floyd would be an easy kill and didn’t bother giving it his all.
However, halfway through their fight, he realized that not even sixty percent of his power was enough to deter the latter.
“I can’t believe you’ve grown to this level!” Thundera exclaimed.
Upon hearing that, Floyd felt an immediate boost to his morale. Ha! I bet he thought I wouldn’t be his match!
“Do you really think you’re invincible just because you’ve been to Kenfort? I shall teach you a lesson today!” he shouted before launching a fierce attack.
Both men were back in a neck-to-neck fight, and Thundera, without a doubt, was furious. “Impudence!”
Very soon, Zoey, Azure Dragon, and the rest arrived and fought with the Ecclesiastic Order.
At first, those from Bluesky Sect hadn’t seen the need to join the battle, thinking that Thundera would be able to wipe out the entire base on his own.
After all, not only did they need to conserve their energy for sudden changes, but they also had to prevent Void Sect fighters from attacking them.
Unfortunately, once the battle began, Hansel soon realized that it wouldn’t be easy for Thundera to occupy the base.
One thing was for sure—their blitzkrieg tactic wasn’t going according to plan.
Chapter 3722 Trump Card “Master Hansel, let’s help them out! We don’t want any unnecessary complications, do we?” Jasper suggested. “Yes,” Hansel replied with a nod. “Let’s make this quick.”
With that, seven fighters from Bluesky Sect joined the battle and immediately turned things around. After all, they were fighters from Kenfort, and even though they hadn’t unleashed their full power, it was more than enough to deal a blow to the base.
Within seconds, casualties among the base members had increased dramatically. Floyd’s situation, too, had begun to worsen over time. As much as he hated to admit it, Thundera was beating him down.
Unfortunately, Zoey and the others had also sustained injuries. Just then, Hansel spotted Forlevia and dashed toward her. “Grab that child!”
“Evie, be careful!” Zoey and the rest warned. Although they wanted to jump to her rescue, they knew they were helpless. They were already struggling to keep up with the onslaught of Bluesky Sect fighters, so how could they do anything more?
At the most critical moment, the rearguard of the Ecclesiastic Order suddenly plunged into chaos. Screams and moans rang out, and people were getting flung into the air before falling to the ground with serious injuries.
Hansel and the others quickly turned around to see what was happening. “What’s going on?” Thundera asked, frowning as he looked in the direction of the commotion.
To his horror, hundreds of troops were attacking them from all directions, and their leaders went on a rampage, leaving many of the Ecclesiastic Order’s elites dead or wounded. “It’s Mia and Wynona!”
“There’s Fiery Demon and Bruno too!” “Divine Brigadier and The Cardinal Hall General are also here!” Reinforcements couldn’t have come at a better time, so naturally, Zoey and the rest were ecstatic.
Furthermore, Mia, Wynona, and the others were so strong that not even the Ecclesiastic Order’s elites were their match. “Mommy, we can finally turn things around!” Forlevia said smilingly.
Seeing the grin on her daughter’s face, Zoey suddenly realized something, but alas, their current situation didn’t allow her to ponder over it. “Are you expecting to turn the tide with this pathetic lot? What a joke!” Hansel bellowed before taking the lead to rush toward Cyrus.
The Paladins from Void Sect quickly followed suit and faced off with Mia and the others. Just like that, the battle became even more intense. “Let’s find out how capable the master of Bluesky Sect really is!” Wynona mused as she slammed her palm on Hansel’s chest.
A tremendous gust of wind immediately shot out, its force so great that it bent the space around them and almost tore it to shreds.
“You arrogant brat! I shall show you what true power is!” Hansel retorted. There’s no way I’m backing down from this. I’m sure I can kill Wynona with one shot! Alas, Hansel began to have second thoughts when his palm collided with Wynona’s.
The pressure from the blast was so overwhelming that despite the protection of his energy shield, he could still feel his cheeks hurting. Apart from that, the powerful recoil had pushed him back a few steps before he managed to catch his footing.
Of course, things weren’t easy for Wynona either. She had also staggered backward from the force, but surprisingly, she remained calm and focused.
“How can there be such a powerful fighter in the mundane world?” Hansel muttered, his face tightened in a wince.
I may not have unleashed my full power, but that strike was at least seventy percent of it. How is Wynona still standing and holding me off? I feel so humiliated! “You have to die today!” Hansel hollered.
With that, he faded into a black shadow and quickly reappeared behind Wynona. Before he could attack, however, he suddenly felt a terrifying presence behind him. “Sneak attack?”
Hansel was stunned. Having felt himself freeze on the spot for a split second, he knew something was majorly off. It was as though an invisible force had locked him in place.
Chapter 3723 Levi And His Elites As a cultivator, Hansel was acutely aware of the dangers around him, and the sense of foreboding continued to grow.
Being rooted to the spot might not be a big deal for ordinary people, but it was undoubtedly a life-and-death situation for fighters in the same class.
Just then, a terrifying surge of energy washed over Hansel. “Oh, sh*t!” he muttered before activating a protection technique. Layers of energy immediately burst forth and surrounded Hansel, wrapping him in what seemed like a thick energy shield.
Boom! The next second, a gust of wind swept over as a palm strike landed smack on the back of Hansel’s energy shield.
Crack! A spider crack instantly formed and began spreading, and it didn’t take long before the shield shattered into pieces. Hansel finally lost his balance and was sent flying backward by the powerful force. It wasn’t until he was more than ten feet away that he managed to catch his footing.
“D*mn it!” he cursed as he wiped away the blood from the corner of his mouth. The attack had left him with an internal injury, and even though it wasn’t serious, it had nevertheless affected him.
“You’re a bunch of insufferable fools!” Hansel yelled as anger thrummed through his veins. “I must destroy all of you today!” If word gets out that a fighter from the mundane world had injured me, how can I ever maintain my foothold in Kenfort?
“Be careful, Mia. This guy has gone mad,” Wynona warned. As it turned out, Mia had been the one to sneak up on Hansel. She had just killed a few elites from the Ecclesiastic Order when she realized the latter’s plan to attack Wynona.
“Don’t worry. I’ll be fine. I’d have used more force if I had known he was so thick-skinned.”
Argh. What a shame. I thought my sneak attack would severely wound Hansel, but who knew he’d get away with such a mild injury?
“How dare you hurt Master Hansel! Prepare to die!” one of the Paladins from Bluesky Sect suddenly shouted. Seeing that it was a chance for him to shine, he promptly launched an attack on Mia.
“You’re the one who’s dead meat!” Mia retorted, her eyes flashing with fierce determination. Bang! Bang! Bang!
Both figures darted around as they exchanged blows, their speed gradually increasing until they became a blur. Soon, all that was left were the dull thuds from their kicks and punches.
When he saw Wynona wanting to help Mia, Hansel resumed his attack. “Hey! I’m your opponent!”
This time around, he had seemed to go crazy and barely gave Wynona any chance to recover.
Thankfully, the latter had gotten a massive boost in power after using several super-spiritual ley lines to metamorphose. Otherwise, there was no way she’d have been able to hold Hansel at bay.
As time went by, however, Hansel realized that Wynona was like a cotton ball. No matter how much force he used, she always seemed to be able to absorb and deflect it.
Oh, this is so frustrating! I have all the energy in the world, yet I can’t seem to land a hit!
“D*mn it, you peasant! I’ll tear you into pieces!” he screamed, clearly having lost control over his emotions.
Alas, the more frustrated Hansel was, the more he couldn’t land a blow on Wynona.
On the contrary, the situation gradually worsened for him, to the point where the latter eventually got the upper hand.
“Master Hansel is losing his sanity! We can’t let him go on like this,” Jasper mumbled.
He had seen the changes in Hansel and knew the latter would never be able to unleash his full combat prowess in his current state of mind.
Worse still, the opponent might even take the opportunity to deal him a severe blow.
“Hurry up and help Master Hansel—” Jasper said before his voice trailed off.
As it turned out, he had noticed that even the Paladins from Bluesky Sect were struggling with the battle.
To make matters worse, the one fighting against Mia was now clearly on the losing end.
“How did this happen? When did Levi suddenly have all these elites around him?” Jasper muttered under his breath.
If this goes on, it’d only be a matter of time before the Paladin gets severely wounded or killed by Mia!
Chapter 3724 Escape Of The Bluesky SectThe rest of the enemy troops weren’t doing any better either. Not only were they fighting a losing battle, but two of them had also sustained internal injuries.
“This won’t do. We have to retreat as soon as possible. Otherwise, there’s a possibility that our entire army might perish!” Jasper said.
Just then, Cyrus’ cold voice rang out from behind. “Hey, old man, now isn’t the time to daydream. Take this!”
Jasper froze as his instincts to danger kicked in. Knowing it was too late to dodge the attack, he quickly activated his protection technique instead. The next second, a powerful force hit him from behind, causing the energy shield that had just materialized to shatter into pieces.
Jasper got flung out instantly, and the excruciating pain he felt was almost unbearable. If it weren’t for him suppressing the urge, he’d have vomited blood a while ago.
“How dare you!” he hollered, his face contorted into a scowl. He was shaking with rage and wanted nothing more than to reduce Cyrus into a pile of ashes.
However, rationality told him that it wouldn’t be wise to stay on any longer. It was bad enough having to deal with Levi’s elite troops, but it’d be even worse if the Glorian Order and Void Sect joined in the battle. We’ll be wiped out if that happened!
“Master Hansel, things aren’t looking good. We have to retreat!” he yelled. Unfortunately, his well-intended warning distracted several Paladins, who ended up being dealt severe blows by their opponents.
Thump!
Thump! Just like that, two of them died on the spot, while the other three were critically injured.
Even Hansel had received three consecutive palm strikes and was bleeding from the mouth, his face all pale. “Let’s go!” he shouted. Sh*t. Everything’s gone pear-shaped. Levi’s troops are way more powerful than I had expected!
Thundera’s expression, too, had turned grim by then. I could still take on Floyd earlier, but things only got worse when Bruno and the others joined in. From the looks of it, there’s no way we’ll win this fight, especially when all of us have already gotten injured.
With that, Hansel and Jasper fought their way out and escaped with Thundera and the three injured Paladins, leaving the two bodies of their dead comrades.
“Don’t go after them!” After all, given that there were still many unknowns and no news of the Glorian Order or Void Sect, it’d be disastrous if Levi’s side gave chase, thereby providing their enemies the opportunity to attack the base.
Moreover, Wynona and the rest hadn’t had it easy either. They had successfully sent Hansel and his cronies running, but at the same time, they had also exhausted a lot of their powers. Many troops had also gotten injured and required treatment immediately.
Meanwhile, the Glorian Order had also received news of Hansel’s attack.
“What? The Ecclesiastic Order carried out the attack so much earlier than planned?” Gloria asked in disbelief.
Since the only ones who knew of the mission were Thundera and his inner circle, not even the Glorian Order had suspected anything about it.
“That’s not good,” Grant muttered. “I think they want to get the fight over and done with so they can steal the magical herbs controlled by Levi’s base.”
Needless to say, the rest agreed with him.
“We can’t let them have their way,” Gloria said with a cold sneer.
“It’s probably too late to rush over now. Knowing how powerful they are, Levi’s useless troops wouldn’t stand a chance against their joint attack,” Wade reasoned.
Just then, one of their subordinates came back with an update.
“Lord Gloria, Levi’s base suddenly received reinforcements from many elites. Master Thundera and Bluesky Sect’s fighters have all gotten injured and fled.”
That news took everyone aback as they exchanged surprised glances.
“How is that possible?”
“Who are their elites? How are they able to injure Hansel and the rest?”
“That’s just unbelievable!”
Gloria contemplated for a moment before speaking up. “No matter who their elites are, the fight must have exhausted them. Our golden opportunity has arrived!”
Despite being baffled, everyone gradually caught on to Gloria’s hint.
“In that case, if we attacked the base now, we’ll be able to reap the benefits,” Wade said with a smile.
Gloria nodded. “Heed my orders! All troops are to move out and attack Levi’s base. We’ll also wipe out the Ecclesiastic Order at the same time!”
Chapter 3725 They Become Stronger The group went to clean up the battlefield within the base. The sight of the elites of the Ecclesiastic Order either howling in pain or lying unmoving on the ground stunned them, especially when their gazes landed on the two bodies from Bluesky Sect.
Zoey turned to Wynona, Mia, and the rest in shock. She had so many questions racing across her mind at that moment that she didn’t know where to start.
“How did you guys do it, Wynona? Such level of combat prowess is astounding!” Zoey suddenly recalled the scene where Forlevia returned to base with a relaxed look.
I remembered urging Evie to flee for her life, but she said there could be a silver lining at the end of the tunnel and even comforted me not to be too depressed.
“I’m sure Evie knows something!”
Zoey was sure her daughter couldn’t foresee the future. It could only mean Forlevia received information from somewhere if she had that relaxed expression on her face. Besides, the crew at the base would’ve been ecstatic if they knew about the reinforcement coming to help them. It’s easy for two people to put on a show, but difficult for everyone to put on the same act since someone might give themselves away. I have to interrogate Evie after the battle.
Zoey decided.
“Mia’s and Wynona’s abilities are terrifying!”
“They never showed it, so I didn’t expect them to unleash such a powerful attack.”
“Yeah! Especially Bruno. It’s like he’s a completely different person from before!”
“We’re so far behind compared to them.”
Phoenix and the others discussed what happened earlier.
They thought they would lose in the battle but the` reinforcement arrived and turn the table.
“Wynona and Mia both cultivate Boss’ basic technique. Their improvement might not be obvious at the start, but they have a lot of room for improvement. Boss also suggested I cultivate the basic technique before, but I wanted a swift breakthrough, so I cultivated Forlevia’s technique instead. I’m feeling a tad regretful about that now,” Phoenix said with a hint of regret in her voice.
Azure Dragon and the rest nodded in agreement. They regretted not listening to Levi’s suggestion. Otherwise, it would’ve helped them tremendously in that day’s crisis.
Floyd was the most taken aback among all of them.
I was aiming to become Levi’s right-hand man in this battle. However, I didn’t expect to be an easy target in the battle by Master Thundera. I probably would’ve been dead if help didn’t arrive in time. The most ironic thing was Bruno was the help. That person who I defeated with a single punch after he slandered Gloria was the one who saved me.
Floyd felt even more humiliated after he witnessed Bruno’s capabilities.
How did Bruno improve to such a level in a few short days? He couldn’t even exchange more than one blow with me in the previous skirmish. Yet, he seems to be more powerful than me now.
Floyd felt something was wrong when he recalled Bruno going out with his eighty students.
Could it be their outing before wasn’t for a mission but a secret training session?
Realization dawned upon Floyd.
It was when I couldn’t find Wynona and the rest anywhere in the base. I noticed that even Master occasionally left the base around that time. Zoey and the others had no idea where he went. Levi must have trained them secretly, or they wouldn’t have improved so quickly. I couldn’t believe I considered him my instructor, but he didn’t even think about me when he was giving secret training sessions. How despicable!
Floyd’s anger surged the more he thought about it, especially after his plan to be famous with that battle failed and resulted in Wynona and the rest becoming the base’s savior instead.
Everyone had been looking at them with admiration and gratified gazes.
Chapter 3726 How Is Levi All of these should’ve been mine. It’s all Levi’s fault for teaching the others behind my back. I would’ve stabbed him in the back if I’d found out earlier.
The flame of anger in Floyd burnt fiercely. He clenched his fists so tightly that cracking sounds echoed from them. This bunch was the one who stole my glory. Just wait, all of you! All of you will regret neglecting me one day!
Floyd roared within. One would notice something purplish-black swirled within Floyd’s eyes if one was watching him. The sight was rather bewitching. Meanwhile, within the main hall of the Glorian Order, Gloria had just given the orders, but Wade stopped her.
“Lord Gloria, don’t you have an acquaintance within Levi’s close circle? You can decide after you understand the situation through him. After all, it was unexpected for Bluesky Sect to be defeated. Since we want to annihilate Levi’s forces, having a thorough understanding of their situation is crucial.”
Gloria’s eyes narrowed, thinking Wade’s words made sense.
“You’re right. A thorough understanding of their situation will give us an upper hand and guarantee our victory in the battle against them. I’ll ask Floyd now.”
Gloria immediately reached for the communication device to contact Floyd.
Floyd was feeling dejected when Gloria called him. Her call was like a balm to his injured pride.
“How are you, Floyd? I heard Master Thundera and the others made their move earlier. It was all my fault for being too low in rank and couldn’t get the news earlier. You could’ve had time to form a defensive formation, otherwise.”
Gloria expressed her concern and guilt on the situation Floyd was in.
“I’m fine, Gloria.”
Her comfort soothed him. In a better mood, he consoled her. “Don’t blame yourself, Gloria. It wasn’t your fault. The ones who made a move were Master Thundera and the elites of Bluesky Sect. Even the elites of the Ecclesiastic Order that were part of the battle were trusted subordinates. With your current position within the Ecclesiastic Order, it’s understandable that you can’t receive the news.”
“Yeah, I’m rest assured as long as you’re fine. Oh, yeah. Are the casualties bad on your side?” Gloria asked.
“I want nothing more than to rush to your side to help you if I can, but I have to stay here to get more useful information,” she added.
“Don’t. It’s too dangerous here,” Floyd discouraged her. As he was worried that she would overthink, he explained, “Don’t come over now. The elites of the Glorian Order and Void Sect might attack us anytime! Those people’s capabilities are way too terrifying. You can’t help much even if you come over. I’ll be worried about your safety instead. The casualties here are pretty bad. Even Wynona and the rest suffered from internal injuries. They’re now meditating to heal their wound.”
Floyd told Gloria a bit more about the situation at Levi’s base, especially his confusion about Wynona’s and the others’ rapid improvement.
“That means Master’s condition didn’t improve at all?” Gloria probed.
Floyd nodded. “Yeah, his condition was worse than two days ago. I presume he’ll only have a few more days left of him. I would’ve stabbed him in the back otherwise. How could he attack you?”
Gloria was aware Floyd was fishing for compliments and showered him with praises.
She expressed how she wanted to be with Floyd and grow old together. That made Floyd happier.
“That’ll be all then. I’ll continue to get more information on the Ecclesiastic Order for you.”
Gloria hung up the call without waiting for Floyd’s response.
“How’s the situation?”
Wade went up to her quickly.
Gloria relayed to Wade the information she heard from Floyd.
They were shocked and confused, especially about Wynona’s and the rest’s improvement in combat prowess.
“The combat prowess of Wynona and the rest are a mystery. We can’t act recklessly. Let’s ask Santino for advice to be on the safe side,” Gloria suggested.
Chapter 3727 Do not Worry I Am Here Reluctance filled Gloria after her call with Floyd. Even though I can gauge their capabilities, Hansel and the others are still the elites of the Bluesky Sect. Adding Master Thundera into the team, they’re all Kenfort’s fighters.
If Santino didn’t join our fold, our overall capabilities couldn’t even overpower that of Bluesky Sect. Yet, two of them were defeated, and the remaining five fled in a wretched state. The crucial part is how Wynona and the rest achieve their breakthrough, Bruno, in particular. Floyd beat him up not too long ago.
Yet, he’s much stronger than Floyd who had devoured the spiritual energy from the spiritual ley line and had his potential tapped into with the Demon Incantation. Puzzlement filled Gloria.
In the end, she accredited their improvement to Levi’s basic technique for Levi himself was a special case. He could’ve dominated the world even when he didn’t devour any spiritual energy. Cultivation of his basic technique should be easier now with the eruption of spiritual energy.
“Why have you come again?” Santino asked impassively. Gloria informed him about the news she’d gotten from Floyd.
“That useless Bluesky Sect. They’re an embarrassment to Kenfort. I can’t believe they got defeated by a bunch of reprobates from the mundane world. I shouldn’t be surprised since they’re a small sect. Even Hansel’s ability was not exceptional. We probably would’ve obliterated their sect in a blink of an eye if Void Sect was their opponent,” Santino said scornfully.
“Our capabilities might not be much stronger than theirs. I’m afraid it won’t be wise to act recklessly. Should we wait for Lord Gloria’s further probing of their situation? What do you think—”
Santino interrupted before Wade could finish his question. “That’s unnecessary. I won’t let any of you follow that useless Bluesky Sect’s footsteps.”
“How can the Void Sect be scared of a few good-for-nothing reprobates? How can we maintain our reputation in Kenfort if this news spreads? Stop spewing nonsense and take action now. I’ll join the attack this time around. Let me see this bunch of reprobates’ capabilities,” he continued with a grave expression.
Gloria asked carefully, “We’re assured with you there to take the lead. We merely hoped to avoid any further casualties with our earlier suggestion.”
“Your worries are unwarranted. I would’ve crippled those few useless trash from Bluesky Sect myself if they didn’t flee fast enough,” Santino said arrogantly. Knowing Santino’s insistence to attack, Gloria had no choice but to obey his instruction.
I would’ve checked on Wynona’s and the others’ situations if I was the one making the decision. After all, Levi is no longer a threat. I can get the information I need if I use my pawn well. However, I don’t dare to defy Santino’s instruction. After all, he’s a key person of Kenfort. Besides, he has Lord Earkenhait of the Void Sect as his backer, so I definitely can’t offend him.
“All hail your command, Empyrean,” Gloria said respectfully. The frost in Santino’s expression melted a little. He enjoyed the feeling of others obeying his order.
“Don’t worry, Gloria. Killing those reprobates is a cakewalk for me.”
Santino had never treated Bluesky Sect as an equal. From his point of view, even the head of the Bluesky Sect would have to beg him for mercy if he was the one leading the attack.
Immediately, Gloria ordered, “All forces of the Glorian Order get ready to close in on Levi’s base. We have to eliminate all of them this time around.”
With that command, the entire Glorian Order and its allies began their preparations. Levi’s base was like a ship floating on the stormy sea.
Their opponent was the stormy sea that could engulf them.
Chapter 3728 Surprise Gloria, Grant, and the rest all showed up simultaneously outside Levi’s base. Without any intention to hide their abilities, they unleashed a few terrifying energy vortexes with them as the center. “Greetings, Lord Gloria!”
Fear and respect filled the eyes of the followers of the Glorian Order when they saw Gloria walking toward them, looking like Hell Witch descended onto Earth in a black dress.
Their admiration for Gloria had reached an obsessive level. The fear they felt from Gloria’s aura had sent their blood boiling. “Victory belongs to the Glorian Order!”
Gloria’s voice had a mesmerizing effect that could stoke the fire burning within her followers. Her words were like a Deity’s command. A command that would be answered.
“Victory!” her followers roared. Their cheer was so loud it echoed across the area. Pride crept up Gloria’s face. “Attack!” Everyone unleashed their attack. Tens of thousands of her followers swarmed Levi’s base from every direction.
Levi’s base was completely surrounded from every direction. Looking at the mass from afar, her followers looked like an ancient beast opening its bloody mouth, preparing to devour the base.
Meanwhile, within the base, Forlevia, Wynona, and Mia went inside and stopped the others from entering. The others didn’t think much of it since those few were Levi’s closest family and friends.
After they entered the room, Forlevia channeled her energy and cast a barrier, separating that space from the rest of the world. Levi dropped his act and slowly opened his eyes once the barrier was in place.
Even though Wynona and the rest knew Levi was merely acting, they were still shocked by how he looked then. “It was no surprise that everyone at the base was sure of your gradual demise. You look no different than a corpse.”
“Did you know you gave Zoey a shock when you pretended to fall for their trick? I’m not going to help you out when Zoey demands an explanation.” “Yeah, Levi. This tactic of yours is like a double-edged sword.”
Mia and the others complained. Levi’s lips curved into a faint smile. He heard about Wynona’s and the others’ improvement after the battle. He was satisfied and proud of their progress.
“All right. Let’s discuss about the war.” “Oh, right. Are any of you hurt?”
“How bad is the depletion of your energy?”
Even though he was discreetly keeping a close watch on them, he was still clueless about the details of their breakthrough since he was worried about exposing his act.
“Don’t worry. Although our energy depletion took a toll on us, we’ve already taken the pill.” “We recovered much of our energy practicing the basic technique. We’re pretty much in peak condition.”
“I had a preconceived notion that Kenfort fighters couldn’t be defeated before the battle.”
Excitement crossed their faces. The previous battle not only helped the base reclaim its prestige but also revived the base members’ confidence, especially toward the legendary fighters of Kenfort. Their lack of confidence before was completely gone.
“It’s great that all of you have recovered. All we have to do now is wait for the Glorian Order and Void Sect to make a move,” Levi said.
Forlevia nodded. “Dad is right. One of the Empyreans of the Void Sect, Santino, has joined their fold. I heard he could annihilate the entire Bluesky Sect with his power alone. I wonder if that’s true.”
Forlevia couldn’t help but be worried about the rumors she heard.
Santino isn’t the only problem as there’s also Gloria.
The others’ expressions turned grave at her reminder. Forlevia was right. There were way too many uncertainties in the coming battle.
“Don’t worry. Since we’ve already come to this stage, I don’t have to keep up my pretense any longer. I’ll give the lord of Glorian Order and the rest a surprise when they attack,” Levi said.
Chapter 3729 The Glorian Order Attacks “Daddy, Santino is powerful. I heard that he even defeated the female lord as if it was just a piece of cake. I think we should proceed carefully,” Forlevia suggested concernedly.
Wynona and the others expressed their agreement as well. They had found out about Santino’s incredible position in Void Sect at a very critical time.
Even if Santino could be defeated this time, it could cause them a lot of trouble in the future. “Levi, we only have too little knowledge about Kenfort, and we can’t keep being in a defensive state. We’ll be too passive that way.
The fighters of Kenfort are known to be very strong. If we can enter that place and develop our skills, we might be able to avoid this kind of situation.”
“That’s right. What we are missing now is a way to enter Kenfort.”
Wynona and the others each voiced their concern.
Levi nodded slightly. He totally understood how they were feeling.
However, he did not think it was a big deal. After all, he had a rough understanding of the cultivation strength of the fighters from Kenfort through the battle.
Take Hansel of Bluesky Sect as an example. Mia and Wynona can easily defeat him if they work together. Even ordinary people like Top Ten and Cyrus can fight Hansel alone. In fact, they have the power to make their opponent suffer. Besides, with Digital God’s new detector, more super-spiritual ley lines and even holy ley lines have been found. So, it’s not a problem for my people to level up their abilities even in this mundane world. Of course, it’ll be better if we can enter Kenfort. The problem is, the people in Kenfort have become our enemies. So, the idea of entering Kenfort has to be thrown out of the window.
Levi said sternly, “There’s no need to worry about all this. Improving your abilities is the most important thing, whether we can enter Kenfort or not. Moreover, Digital God is still looking for super-spiritual ley lines. Once we’re out of this danger, we can still improve our abilities.”
His words helped their nervous hearts to calm down.
“Master Garrison, how do you plan to deal with Floyd?” Bruno asked suddenly.
Upon hearing that, the others, too, shifted their gaze to Levi. They had already known that Floyd was the culprit behind Levi’s assassination.
Truth was, Wynona and the others were feeling conflicted as well. After all, Floyd was Levi’s most valued disciple.
Everyone got along well with each other. They were practically a family.
However, ever since Gloria came into their lives, everything changed. Even worse, Floyd even attempted to assassinate Levi.
Everyone still found the incident unbelievable.
Naturally, Levi was feeling just as conflicted as them.
There was no way he could bear to kill Floyd.
Floyd was, after all, Levi’s favorite disciple he used to treat as a family member in the past.
However, it would not do Levi’s anger justice by forgiving Floyd.
Especially when Floyd had caused Levi’s other disciples, friends, and even family to be harmed and dead.
Just as Levi was feeling stumped, Zoey’s panicked voice traveled from the outside.
“Wynona, Evie, come out quickly! The Glorian Order is here!”
Levi’s gaze darkened, and he said, “Go out there and deal with the enemies first. We’ll talk about this later.”
Forlevia and the others nodded before quickly removing the energy restrictions and walking out.
The moment they stepped out of the room, they saw Zoey and the others wearing grim expressions.
“The opponents are too strong, especially the female lord and the Paladins of Void Sect. Even the people of Heavenly League suffered heavy casualties and have retreated to the headquarters,” said Zoey in a serious tone.
With a deep voice, Wynona responded, “Let’s go out and face the enemies. Retreating won’t do us any good. Our morale will be affected as well.”
Everyone nodded, feeling she had a point. Hence, they quickly led the base’s elites out to face the enemies.
Floyd, Phoenix, and the others followed closely behind.
For some reason, Floyd felt somewhat worried.
He could not help but feel that there was a deeper meaning to the gazes Wynona and the others gave him earlier.
Regardless, it was not the time to get to the bottom of it when they were faced with a powerful enemy.
“Levi, come out here and meet your end!”
Chapter 3730 The True Identity of Gloria Suddenly, a charming voice of a woman rang out. Though it sounded incredibly alluring, it was laced with a thick, murderous aura. “It’s the lord of the Glorian Order.”
“D*mn it! How dare she still say that knowing Master is terribly injured?”
“We’re in trouble. This wave of attack will be more terrifying than the Ecclesiastic Order.” As the crowd discussed among themselves, Floyd was left dumbstruck. The voice was all too familiar to him.
“No way. It can’t be!” Floyd quickened his pace. He needed to confirm if that voice belonged to Gloria. Soon, the crowd arrived outside of the base. Both parties had pulled out their weapons, filling the entire area with an intense, murderous aura.
“Very well. Let’s hope you guys can last a little longer. Otherwise, all this killing will be no fun,” Gloria taunted. Phoenix and the others were the first to recognize Gloria, and they had a look on their faces that seemed to say, “I knew it was you.”
“I knew it, Gloria. It’s you!” “You vicious woman. You deserve to die!”
“You betrayed your sect and your people. You’re the perfect example of what a cruel and unrighteous person is.”
Phoenix and the others could not help but throw curses at her. They had carried out countless investigations, which led them back to Gloria. And now, the current situation had confirmed their findings.
Meanwhile, Zoey, Forlevia, and the others were quite shocked. After all, it was one thing to investigate and make speculations, but confirming it in person was a totally different thing.
After some time, Zoey and Forlevia turned around to look at Floyd unanimously.
“Floyd, you attacked me because of this woman back then, right? Surely you’re seeing her true colors now?” Bruno questioned coldly.
Floyd did not respond and kept his head lowered. Even so, everyone could see his body trembling violently.
“W-Why? Why is it you? Gloria, you have to give me a reasonable explanation!” Floyd suddenly lifted his head and stared at Gloria with bloodshot eyes.
Gloria snickered, saying, “A reasonable explanation? That’s easy. All this happened because you’re too stupid. Who do you think you are? What were you thinking, wanting to win my heart with that insignificant cultivation level of yours? How foolish! However, I still have to thank you, Floyd. If it weren’t for the information you provided back then, I would’ve been captured by Levi. Oh, one more thing. If you didn’t secretly inform me about it, Master Eusof and Levi would’ve met each other long ago. Most importantly, you’ve done me a great favor by helping me to assassinate Levi.”
Gloria’s words were like sharp daggers that stabbed into Floyd’s heart.
“No! That’s impossible! I don’t believe it. Gloria, you’re lying to me, aren’t you? Besides, Master was the one who almost killed you, right? How could you be the lord of the Glorian Order?” Floyd asked, utterly confused.
“That’s because it’s an act. Xylas was the one disguising himself as Levi. He never attacked me in the first place. Nonetheless, how could you attack Levi if I didn’t let you witness it with your own eyes?” said Gloria smugly.
“No. This isn’t real. I must be dreaming.”
Floyd was truly devastated. So, this was all an act by Gloria and Xylas.
When he thought about all the incidents from the past, especially the sweet nothings she said to him, he felt a pang of insult.
He recalled how Phoenix and the others have been advising him to stay away from Gloria over and over again. Yet, he ignored their words and even attacked them.
Floyd also remembered all the kind things Levi did for him. Alas, he had almost killed the latter.
“Ahh!” Floyd screamed into the sky. He was overcome with so much regret and was on the verge of losing his sanity.
Thump!
Floyd fell to his knees and stared blankly ahead like a soulless body.
