Melanie Fennimore’s right arm was cut open by the sword energy, and blood dyed her sleeve red.
“Damn it! You actually injured me!” Melanie Fennimore stabilized herself and her face turned red with anger.
After quickly treating her wound, she looked at Harleen with a cold tone.
“I originally wanted to give you a chance to surrender voluntarily. Since you are so clueless, don’t blame me!”
As soon as her words fell, her momentum soared once again, revealing the aura of a seventh-rank Saint.
Then, she directly activated one of the supreme techniques of the Phoenix Divine Palace.
Soaring Phoenix in the Sky!
She took a few steps forward, and countless sword shadows appeared as her wrist moved through the air, creating a sharp piercing sound.
In no time, a giant phoenix phantom faintly appeared above her head. Maybe because her cultivation was not enough, the phoenix was just a fledgling.
However, even so, the power was enough to move hearts.
The phoenix spread its wings and shot into the sky, stirring up a gust of wind in the air.
Then, like a living creature, it let out a cry and descended, charging towards Harleen at incredible speed.
“Harleen, be careful!” Seeing this, Bob and the others, who were originally calm, shouted at the same time.
Billy didn’t say anything, but there was a hint of astonishment in his eyes. He didn’t expect Melanie Fennimore to unleash such a powerful move.
On the other side, the people from the Phoenix Divine Palace, after seeing this scene, had relieved expressions on their faces.
They knew very well that since Miss Harleen had used the “Soaring Phoenix in the Sky,” this battle should be over.
Not to mention that Harleen was one rank lower, even if she was at the same rank, it would be impossible to withstand this move!
However, their smiles didn’t last long as they suddenly froze.
Earlier, when Melanie Fennimore launched her attack, Harleen also activated her own trump card, the Heavenly Unity Sword Technique!
“Heaven and Earth, all swords unite!”
As her words fell, countless sword energies in the air merged into one, forming a sword intent that contained immense power, piercing towards the phoenix phantom.
Boom!
The two attacks collided, creating a deafening explosion.
Afterward, the phoenix phantom instantly exploded and dissipated, while Harleen’s sword energy continued to shoot forward. “Miss, be careful!” the old man in plain clothes called out in amazement. He intended to help, but it was clear that it was already too late.
Bang!
In the next moment, the sword energy struck a large rock not far from Melanie Fennimore’s right side.
After another loud bang, the rock exploded like a cannonball, and stone fragments flew everywhere.
This was obviously the result of Harleen’s deliberate intention. Otherwise, if the sword struck Melanie Fennimore, even if she had ten lives, it would not be enough.
At the same time, Melanie Fennimore spewed out a mouthful of blood and was sent flying. She flew for hundreds of meters, flipping several somersaults in the air before finally coming to a stop.
Her aura was in complete disorder, her face as pale as wax, and she looked extremely disheveled.
The ‘Phoenix Blade’ in her hand also slipped away and dropped more than ten meters away.
On the other hand, Harleen, after colliding head-on with her opponent, stabilized herself after retreating seven to eight steps.
Other than her slightly disordered aura, there were no other injuries on her body.
One move made the outcome clear.
“Miss!” the people from Phoenix Divine Palace shouted and hurried towards Melanie Fennimore.
Billy and the others walked towards Harleen.
“Lady Harleen, are you alright?” Otis Hum asked when they spoke. At the same time, he couldn’t help but feel amazed.
It had only been a few months, but Harleen had already advanced so greatly!
Based on the fighting power Harleen had displayed just now, even if she faced a strong eighth-rank Saint, she would still be undefeated!
This was truly unbelievable!
“Thank you for your concern, Mr Hum. I’m fine,” Harleen responded with a smile.
“Honey, you should rest first!” Billy roughly examined Harleen’s body and confirmed that there were no major injuries, so he let go of his worries.
“No need, I’m really fine!” Harleen smiled again.
Then, she walked towards Melanie Fennimore.
“You’re damn despicable, actually injuring Miss Fennimore!” the male in the robe yelled loudly when he saw Harleen approaching.
“Ignorant!” Soul Chaser retorted.
“If it weren’t for Harleen’s mercy, your Miss would have died by now!”
“Hmph! She wouldn’t dare!” the man in the robe responded angrily.
“If she dared to kill our Miss from Phoenix Divine Palace, not only would she be dead, but no one in her family would be able to escape death!”
“You’re such an idiot!” Judge interrupted. “Is Phoenix Divine Palace really that powerful? If you keep babbling, believe it or not, I’ll kill all of you!”
“You…” The man in the robe shouted again.
“Enough, stop arguing!” the old man in plain clothes scolded. Then, he looked at the two women and said, “Help Miss Fennimore onto the carriage and return to the hotel. I will help her heal her injuries.”
“Alright!” The two women nodded and bent down to support Melanie Fennimore.
“Get lost! I can walk by myself!” Melanie Fennimore hesitated for a moment, then struggled to climb up from the ground.
Then she looked at Harleen with anger and said, “You wait for me. I will double the humiliation today and return it to you when the time comes!”
“I’m ready anytime!” Harleen shrugged and continued, “But let me give you some advice. Don’t bring up the engagement topic anymore. Not only does it embarrass yourself, but it also humiliates the entire Phoenix Divine Palace!”
“Hmph! We’ll see!” Melanie Fennimore gritted her teeth.
“No need to see you off!” Harleen smiled faintly. “Also, thank you for your blade gift. I’ll accept it!”
“You better pray that you don’t lose the ‘Phoenix Blade.’ Otherwise, you’ll have to pay with your life!” Melanie Fennimore continued angrily.
“Go back and tell your palace lord to take care of her own daughter!” At this moment, Billy looked at the old man in plain clothes and spoke sternly.
“We won’t pursue this matter further, but if she causes trouble again in the capital, she will bear the consequences herself!”
After speaking, he reached out and held Harleen’s hand. “Honey, let’s go back!”
“Okay!” Harleen smiled lightly.
Bob walked a few steps forward, picked up the ‘Phoenix Blade’ on the ground, and followed Judge and Soul Chaser.
Upon passing by Otis Hum, Billy greeted him and said, “Thank you for your hard work, Mr Hum.”
Otis Hum bowed slightly and replied, “You’re welcome, Lord Dragon.”
Melanie Fennimore shouted angrily, “You bastards! I swear, one day I will make both of you kneel down and beg me!”
Bob turned his head and glanced at her, saying, “You idiot! Just look out for yourself!”
An hour later, Billy and the others returned to Lord Dragon’s mansion.
“Boss, Harleen, where did you go?” After getting out of the car, Stout and Ivy approached them.
They had locked themselves in the pill refining room for two days and nights, and finally finished their work temporarily.
“Stout, you missed an exciting scene!” Bob said with a smile.
“What exciting scene?” Stout immediately became interested.
Ivy also looked at Bob and asked, “Bob, what happened?”
“Ivy, have you heard of Phoenix Divine Palace?” Bob asked in response.
“Phoenix Divine Palace?” Ivy was taken aback.
“I’ve heard my grandfather mention it once. It’s said to be one of the most mysterious sects in Glavale, but their members haven’t appeared in the martial world for many years!”
After speaking, Ivy continued, “What happened? Did people from the Phoenix Divine Palace come to the capital city?”
“Yes! Boss’ fiancée came to find him!” Bob grinned and briefly described the situation.
“Huh?” Ivy furrowed her brows tightly.
“Ah?” Stout exclaimed at the same time. “Boss, you have a concubine?”
