“Jade Spirit Crystalfruit has already been eaten by us. You two ugly creatures should stop thinking about it,” Leo said mockingly, then added, “If you hand over the White Jade Spirit Fruit and Red Vine Spirit Flower you just stole, I might consider sparing your lives.”
Leo’s calm voice echoed through the bamboo forest clearing.
These words not only stunned the Malevolent Twins but also shocked Wood Sword Venerable, Kade, and the surrounding cultivators.
From the young man’s words, it was clear that not only would he not return the Jade Spirit Crystalfruit, but he also intended to rob the Malevolent Twins of the White Jade Spirit Fruit and Red Vine Spirit Flower they had just taken from Wood Sword Venerable.
“Arrogant fool, seeking death!” Evan Malice cursed angrily, his ugly face turning vicious and fierce.
Evan Malice waved his hands, and a black mountain blazing with demonic flames came crashing down towards Leo.
Due to the mountain’s massive size, it not only targeted Leo but also enveloped the members of Divine Sword Sect and Shatter Mountain Sect.
“Seraphina, let’s deal with the Malevolent Twins together!” Wood Sword Venerable shouted as he faced the descending black mountain.
Hearing Wood Sword Venerable’s words, Seraphina glanced at him and the others with clear eyes but merely shook her head lightly.
Leo looked calmly at the black mountain descending with demonic flames. With a light tap of his foot, he leaped into the air and placed his right hand against the black mountain, halting its descent.
The surface of the black mountain blazed with demonic flames, attempting to engulf Leo.
“Such a petty trick, daring to show off!” Leo laughed lightly at the Malevolent Twins.
As he spoke, Leo’s eyes flashed with icy white light. The Nine-Petal Ice-Soul Lotus within him activated, and cold energy surged from his right hand.
The blazing black mountain was visibly frozen at a rapid pace.
In just a few breaths, the entire black mountain turned into a white ice mountain.
Then, with a “boom,” the ice mountain shattered into countless ice shards that scattered from the sky.
Seeing Leo stop Evan Malice’s fierce attack with one hand, Wood Sword Venerable and Kade were astonished.
Wood Sword Venerable’s astonishment quickly turned to joy.
Kade was also pleased because the stronger Leo was, the better their chances of defeating the Malevolent Twins.
“Kid, your strength has improved. No wonder you’re so arrogant now,” Evan Malice said with a fierce look as he watched the falling ice shards. A black curved blade appeared in his hand.
Derek Malice also summoned a black curved blade.
“Let you two ugly creatures test my strength!” Leo sneered as he faced Evan Malice and Derek Malice.
Seeing Leo intending to fight the Malevolent Twins alone, Wood Sword Venerable and Kade exchanged glances and decided to hold back for now.
Around the bamboo forest, all eyes focused on Leo.
“Foolish creature!” Evan Malice cursed angrily, his curved blade blazing with demonic flames.
Leo didn’t waste words with them. The Nine-Petal Ice-Soul Lotus in his dantian activated, and a wave of extreme cold spread out.
The temperature in the bamboo forest plummeted instantly, as if they had entered an icy world.
Snowflakes even began to fall from the sky.
Feeling the bone-chilling cold, Wood Sword Venerable and Kade’s expressions changed. They even noticed a slight delay in their spiritual power circulation.
A layer of icy crystals quickly formed on Leo’s fists. He then swung his fists directly at the Malevolent Twins.
Two beams of icy crystal fist light pierced through the air towards the Malevolent Twins.
The beams rapidly enlarged in the Malevolent Twins’ eyes, causing their ugly faces to turn serious.
Their demonic spiritual power surged out, and their black blades emitted dozens of feet of demonic flame blade light.
Four beams of demonic flame blade light slashed at the incoming icy crystal fist beams.
At the moment of contact, an extremely domineering cold force erupted.
The four beams of demonic flame blade light seemed to freeze instantly, turning into four ice blades.
In the astonished gazes of everyone, the ice blades shattered into countless ice shards.
After breaking through the demonic flame blade light, the icy crystal fist beams continued towards the Malevolent Twins.
The Malevolent Twins’ faces changed as they retreated rapidly.
Meanwhile, their demonic spiritual power formed several black barriers in front of them.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The black barriers were all pierced and shattered by the icy crystal fist beams, which then struck the Malevolent Twins’ chests.
Pfft!
The Malevolent Twins spat blood simultaneously and were sent flying backward.
“Amazing!”
“Two punches made the Malevolent Twins spit blood. Impressive!”
In the bamboo forest, many onlookers praised Leo.
After stabilizing themselves, the Malevolent Twins’ ugly faces turned extremely grim. Evan Malice cursed hatefully, “Damn little…”
But he couldn’t finish because ice crystals began spreading rapidly from where they were hit on their chests.
The Malevolent Twins tried to resist with their demonic spiritual power but found their power circulation stalling. Even their golden cores seemed frozen.
This situation terrified them. Evan Malice glanced at Leo again and shouted coldly, “Retreat!”
The Malevolent Twins used their remaining spiritual power to flee from the bamboo forest.
Leo watched them flee with a cold smile. The space around him rippled slightly as he disappeared from his spot.
The next moment, Leo appeared within a hundred meters behind the Malevolent Twins.
With a wave of his sleeve, an ice-white tornado engulfed the Malevolent Twins.
Ice blades sliced through their bodies, and amidst their screams, their bodies were shredded into pieces that fell from the sky.
“The Malevolent Twins have been slain!”
“This young man is too strong. His strength is probably on par with the Five Great Geniuses.”
“From today on, the Malevolent Twins can no longer commit evil…”
In the bamboo forest, Wood Sword Venerable, Kade, and other cultivators were all visibly shocked.
Amidst the blood mist, Leo reached out his hand and two black storage sacks flew into his grasp.
After erasing the Malevolent Twins’ spiritual imprints on them, Leo’s consciousness entered the storage sacks. After a quick scan, he was surprised by what he found.
The storage sacks contained over ten seventh-grade spirit herbs and piles of spirit stones, spiritual weapons, ores, and pills.
The notorious the Malevolent Twins indeed had a rich stash.
After storing away the sacks, Leo flashed back to Seraphina’s side.
