Everything happened in the blink of an eye. Under immense pressure, Luke, who was rushing towards Leo, had no time to retreat.
The Divine Dragon Sword arrived in an instant, and a look of fear flashed across Luke’s face.
In a critical moment, Luke’s internal energy surged and transformed into an ice shield, blocking in front of him.
Unfortunately, the ice shield had not fully formed when the Divine Dragon Sword arrived.
The incomplete ice shield shattered, and the Divine Dragon Sword pierced through Luke’s protective internal energy, then plunged into his left chest.
Luke’s eyes widened in shock, his face filled with horror as he slowly fell to the ground, lifeless.
Everything happened too quickly. When Carley and Frank snapped out of their daze, Luke was already beyond saving.
“Luke!”
Carley and Frank’s faces turned pale, disbelief and shock evident in their eyes as they cried out.
Leo approached and pulled out the Divine Dragon Sword from Luke’s chest.
The ancient sword blade of the Divine Dragon Sword remained untainted by a single drop of blood.
Leo gripped the sword in his right hand, his gaze cold as he looked at Carley.
At the same time, Leo flipped his left hand, and a Thunder Talisman appeared in his palm.
Without any hesitation, Leo directly activated the Thunder Talisman, targeting Carley!
A flash of lightning appeared above Carley’s head.
Carley’s expression changed as she prepared to dodge.
Leo activated another Talisman.
The Talisman transformed into a green light and entered the ground.
From the ground beneath Carley’s feet, vine-like tendrils emerged and instantly entwined around her body.
At the same time, violent lightning struck down.
In this critical moment, Carley’s fire element internal energy surged, and red flames burned around her entangled body.
Bang!
After the flames burned away, Carley broke free from the vines and dodged to the side.
Poor Carley never expected the lightning to change direction. With the lightning about to strike her head, she could only slap her palm upward.
The violent lightning struck Carley’s palm, and the terrifying electric current instantly spread throughout her body.
Carley let out a scream of agony, staggering and almost falling to the ground.
Once Carley regained her balance, she noticed that her long hair had turned charred black, emitting a burnt smell. Her clothes were also torn in several places.
Before Carley could fully recover her senses, Leo was already charging towards her with the Divine Dragon Sword in hand.
“Carley, be careful!” Frank’s face turned pale as he urgently shouted.
If Carley was also killed, then he would be doomed as well.
Carley would not sit idly by. She held something in her hand that was about the size of a matchbox.
Carley pressed the object in her hand against Leo.
A rain of needles shot towards Leo.
Leo’s figure slightly faltered as he activated a Diamond Protective Talisman.
While using the Diamond Protective Talisman to block the needles, Leo also unleashed the Nine Abyss Suppresses Evil Peak.
A pitch-black mist instantly enveloped Carley.
Carley suddenly felt ten times heavier. Her vision blurred, and she instinctively tried to dodge.
But it was too late. The Divine Dragon Sword in Leo’s hand had already slashed across her neck.
When Leo stopped his sword momentum, blood sprayed from Carley’s neck.
Carley reached out to cover her bleeding neck. Her pupils dilated rapidly as her body slowly collapsed like a pile of mud, lifeless.
“Carley!” Frank was filled with extreme horror at this moment.
He never imagined that both Luke and Carley, who were powerful individuals, would be slain by Leo!
Leo shifted his gaze from Carley’s lifeless body to Frank standing nearby.
When Leo’s gaze met Frank’s eyes, a look of terror flashed through Frank’s eyes.
Because from Leo’s eyes, he saw a killing intent.
“You… How dare you kill someone from True Martial Sect! Do you know what position True Martial Sect holds in the martial cultivation world? You… You’re doomed…” Fear overwhelmed Frank, causing him to utter meaningless words.
“Frank, the person you sent to kill me has been killed by me. Now it’s your turn.” Leo curved his lips into a smile and said coldly.
Leo approached Frank with the Divine Dragon Sword in hand.
“I am a member of the William family in the capital. You can’t kill me. Otherwise, True Martial Sect and the William family won’t let you go…” Frank’s words were cut short as his throat was slashed by the Divine Dragon Sword, just like Carley’s.
“I gave you a chance, but you didn’t know how to cherish it.” Leo retracted the Divine Dragon Sword and coldly spoke to Frank’s lifeless body.
After putting away the Divine Dragon Sword and Nine Abyss Suppresses Evil Peak into the Void Storage Talisman, a wave of exhaustion washed over Leo’s body.
Leo looked at his left hand. The venom from the red-banded snake had not been completely eliminated.
“What a powerful poison.” Leo’s pupils contracted.
Glancing at the three bodies on the ground, Leo was about to sit cross-legged and force out the snake venom from his palm when a series of short beeping sounds suddenly rang out.
Following the sound, Leo discovered that it was coming from a wristwatch on Frank’s wrist.
“This… is a communication wristwatch?” Leo’s gaze narrowed.
The communication wristwatch on Frank’s wrist resembled the one WONDER Abel had given him before.
The beeping sound lasted for a full minute before stopping.
Presumably, there should be a pulse detection device on Frank’s wristwatch.
If the watch couldn’t detect a pulse, it would sound an alarm and transmit information.
Leo lifted his foot and directly crushed the communication wristwatch under his heel.
Leo activated a Skyfire Talisman and destroyed the three bodies completely before sitting cross-legged on the ground in his room.
After swallowing a large Vitality Pill, Leo closed his eyes and circulated his Spiritual Power to completely cleanse his body of any remaining toxins.
After more than ten minutes, all traces of toxins were thoroughly eliminated from his body.
Standing up from the ground and exhaling lightly, Leo glanced at the three piles of ashes on the floor before leaving the place.
Returning to the medical clinic and having dinner, Leo locked himself in his backyard room.
Next, he planned to do one thing – unraveling the bronze scroll he obtained from the Leighton sisters in the capital city.
With a wave of his right hand, a bronze light projection floated out from the Void Storage Talisman.
Wrapped in Spiritual Power, the ancient bronze painting floated in front of Leo.
Now that Leo possessed Divine Awareness, he could attempt to erase the Divine Awareness imprint on the scroll.
“Open!” Leo’s gaze flickered as he formed seals with his fingertips and uttered a soft command.
As the tightly rolled bronze scroll unfolded to both sides, sharp sword intent and a faint green light surged within the room.
The ancient bronze painting fully opened, revealing a general clad in bronze armor with a bronze helmet on his head and a sharp sword in his hand.
Seeing the general in the painting, excitement surged within Leo because this puppet general depicted on the scroll was likely a growth-type puppet.
The puppet general was bound by peculiar black lines resembling spider webs that imprisoned him within the painting.
These black lines converged to form a large “seal” character on the puppet general’s abdomen – this was precisely the Divine Awareness imprint sealing him.
After thousands of years had passed, the Divine Awareness imprint was no longer as powerful as before.
However, it was still not something that Leo’s current cultivation could easily decipher.
