Lydia held hands with Leo, her face looking full of emotion.
Leo was right; without their not-so-friendly encounter that night, there would have been no later achievement for Leo.
Perhaps Leo would rise too, but at that time, all that would remain in his heart was his hatred for Ariella.
A man with hatred in his heart could not go very far.
Lydia’s appearance was like that ray of sunshine that added a touch of solace and expectation to the dark days of five years ago.
Because it hurt, it was necessary to make amends.
Leo’s identity was also established, and the Seven Maestros collectively called him master, which would have caused an uproar throughout the entire state, if word had gotten out.
But Lydia would not do so. From the beginning to the end, Leo was her lover, always the same and unchanged.
“Let’s go home when Martial Maestro wins.”
Leo smiled at Lydia.
“Okay.”
Lydia gently rested her head on Leo’s shoulder as the two of them admired the stars over the night of Hopkins together.
…
Meanwhile, Martial Maestro had a few more moves with Cassius.
The two men were reduced to mere shadows that the naked eye could not catch as entities, and together they rang out with the sound of fist-to-fist blows.
Outside, Olly, Euan and Angus were frightened. This was only the Westernland Guardian Cassius, if it was anyone else, they wouldn’t last a single round.
“Grandpa … save me!”
Reece was scared at this point, and his whole body was trembling.
He was scared!
At first he thought that the man who had contradicted his God father was just some lowly minion and that, given his status, his relief was a sure thing.
He didn’t expect it to be a hidden big hot, whose strength was actually on a par with his God father’s.
This was a bit beyond his capabilities.
Not to mention him, even Angus and Olly were at their wits’ end with the situation before them.
They were born in the Newman clan and knew that a family was strong not by money power status, but by the law of survival of strength.
The strength was there, the money, the status, the power all came.
How horrible a thing was it to offend Martial Maestro of terrifying strength?
“Reece, get over here!”
Euan hurriedly beckoned to Reece.
Although Reece’s ability was inferior to that of Angus and Olly, he was still a member of his Newman family’s younger generation, so how could he watch him die?
Reece was even more desperate to run towards Euan’s side.
Behind him, however, came the cold voice of Martial Maestro.
“Run? Can you run?”
“Who can run away from me?”
Reece looked back and his body trembled.
Only to see Martial Maestro once again appear behind Reece and slam a heavy fist at him.
“Father, help me!”
Reece shouted.
Cassius also struck out at this point, shaking back Martial Maestro.
Cassius’s eyes were cold: “Martial Maestro, I will pay for your disciple’s medical expenses, and I guarantee that he will recover to his original level of strength!”
This statement was already a compromise in disguise.
This was because the killing intent of Martial Maestro was too strong. If an expert of his level was really determined to kill someone, even if someone of the same level stopped him, he would definitely be killed.
“Why?”
Martial Maestro didn’t even put Cassius in his eyes, “Today, he must die!”
Words overflowing with a morose and murderous aura echoed around, and Martial Maestro had made his attitude clear.
Reece must die!
Cassius’s eyes gradually sank.
“You’re provoking me!”
One must kill, the other must protect, and the two were themselves on opposite sides of the fence.
“If that’s a provocation, then I am provoking you.”
In the next moment, Martial Maestro threw a heavy punch, as powerful as thunder.
If Wallace were here, he would be so shocked that he would be speechless.
Because, that was Running Thunder Fist.
Only, Martial Maestro’s Running Thunder Fist was far superior to Wallace’s in terms of speed, and strength.
Even Cassius’s eyes froze and his pupils plummeted.
“Running Thunder Fist? How come you know the Running Thunder Fist too? What is your relationship with the Guardian of the North?”
Cassius’s eyes became stern all of a sudden, staring deadly at Martial Maestro.
The four great realm lords of the east, south, north and west have fought for the name of Dragonlord before.
In the end, it was the Guardian of the North who overwhelmingly defeated the other three realm masters.
At the time, the Guardian of the North was dressed in military attire, with an Zakariya that could not be seen.
But the strokes that defeated him were all too familiar to Cassius.
It was this Running Thunder Fist!
Upon hearing this, Martial Maestro smiled coldly, “This is a question that you should take your time to figure out for yourself!”
If Cassius were to learn that the Guardian of the North was the founder of Supreme Warriors, what would his expression turn into?
Martial Maestro was looking forward to it.
He had a feeling that this day would not be long in coming.
“Go to hell!”
Martial Maestro shouted.
In an instant, he exploded with great power, his energy roaring in like a rushing thunder.
“Don’t you dare!”
Cassius also roared.
In a flash of lightning, he met the attack.
Because he had seen how powerful the Running Thunder Fist was, Cassius also used his full strength for the first time.
Although he did not exert his full strength, he believed that the force was enough to withstand Martial Maestro’s Running Thunder Fist.
However, the moment the two collided, the smile on Cassius’s face instantly stiffened.
A powerful force exploded in his palm and he subconsciously retracted his hand.
Cassius’s face paled and after retracting, he instinctively tried to reach out again.
However, it was still too late.
The strongest fighters were quick to change.
A moment’s hesitation was enough to cause the situation to change forever.
Martial Maestro jolted Cassius back with a Running Thunder Fist, causing his body to stiffen for a moment.
Immediately afterwards, he appeared like a ghost in front of Reece and looked at him coldly.
“What do you want to do …”
Reece even peed in his trousers out in fear.
Without any words, Martial Maestro kicked heavily on Reece.
At once, Reece flew out a long way like a kite with a broken string.
It just happened to fall at Euan’s feet.
“Ah …”
Euan shrieked in fear and fell on his buttocks to the ground.
He was too old to be stimulated.
At this moment, looking at Reece, who was motionless and lying in front of him as if he were a dead body, Euan was terrified.
“Reece!”
Olly also cried out, but when his hand was placed between his nostrils, he found that he had long since broken off.
Cassius came back to his senses at this time, and looked at Martial Maestro with fierce eyes, “You killed my God son?”
A morose, murderous aura spread all around.
Martial Maestro stood with his arms folded, his expression indifferent: “I said he must die.”
