Chapter 914 - A Cowardly Sneak Attack
"Do you still want to protect him now, First Brother? This fool didn't just disrespect me, but he also disrespected you!" Lord Razarkan said.
Naturally, Lord Reingard was aware of that.
However, this young man dared to disrespect both the palace lords of the Battle God Palace repeatedly. He was either a complete ignorant fool, or he had immeasurable confidence.
Considering his third brother, Lord Rholthos, left the southern region in failure, there had to be a reason. At the very least, there had to be someone powerful enough to make him leave in such a hurry.
Lord Reingard swept his gaze across Chief Valencia, Battle King One-Eye, and the others, but none of them seemed to be that person.
He knew their strengths.
They weren't half bad but still far from being a match for an Extremity-rank Battle King, let alone surpass one. Only Battle King One-Eye was relatively close to their level. Nevertheless. The person's strength still falls short.
As such, none of them could have been responsible for his third brother's failure. Only the strength of the young man and the two women behind him was unclear.
Although it defied his common sense, Lord Reingard suspected that one of these three people possessed Battle God-level strength. And if he had to guess, the young man was the most likely suspect.
Everything would make sense if the young man had the strength to back his blatant behavior.
In a short instance, Lord Reingard arrived at the conclusion that the young man was truly the leader of the southern tribes with unmatched strength.
It was the only explanation he could think of.
After all, the person with Battle God-level strength had to be present amongst the southern tribes' leaders.
Otherwise, even if the southern tribe had a hidden leader with Battle God-level strength, they could not stop him from slaughtering everyone if the person wasn't present.
Nevertheless, so what if the young man was a Battle God? Even a Battle God cannot possibly survive the sudden blow of a Tier-6 Battle-Ax to the neck.
Once the leader is taken down, the rest of the southern tribes shouldn't be a problem. He only needed to deal with his Second Brother then.
Lord Reingard gathered his thoughts and settled on his plan.
Lord Reingard suddenly swung his giant Tier-6 Battle-Ax at Leon's neck without warning in the next instance. It was a swift yet cowardly sneak attack. However, Leon was still faster!
Peng!
Leon blocked the attack with his Tier-7 White Spear. The force of the two weapons clashing immediately generated a shockwave, blasting out from the epicenter.
Everyone was quickly pushed back by the force of the wind. However, Leon and Lord Reingard stood their ground as it cracked beneath their feet.
"It was a good plan," Leon calmly stated. Shortly after, he added, "Unfortunately, you f*cked up."
"F*ck!" Lord Reingard cussed with a rapid change in expression.
He quickly retreated and created distance from Leon with a leap. He had one chance, but he blew it. No, the young man must have seen through his intention from the start!
At the same time, Lord Razarkan stood blankly in astonishment.
What did he just see? That skinny young man had traded blows with his first brother without being overwhelmed by his first brother's brute strength.
The young man was so strong!
Lord Razarkan immediately tightened his grip on the Tier-6 Battle Mace in his hand with a guarded look, readying to defend against any incoming attacks.
"Since you tried to kill me, you can forget about leaving this place now. I haven't met a good opponent to test my present strength. I think the two of you will do just fine," Leon pointed his Tier-7 White Spear at them coolly.
He had made his decision to kill both palace lords. It would save the Darkmoon Tribe the trouble when he returns to the Human Domain.
In the next instance, the withdrawn dragon aura in Leon's body surged outward explosively, filling the area with a grand yet oppressive feeling.
The two palace lords' expressions changed for the worse immediately.
Not only did the young man possess such powerful strength and aura, but he even had a powerful weapon to bolster his strength even further!
"This person is very dangerous!" Lord Razarkan warned his people with a solemn expression.
"Second Brother, I never thought I would say this, but if we want to survive, we have to work together to defeat this man!" Lord Reingard said gravely.
After all, since Leon said he would kill them, naturally, he wouldn't let them leave.
"You don't say!" Lord Razarkan scowled with a grim look. His first brother stated the most obvious thing to do.
Shortly after, he barked at his men, "Everyone, attack together! There's no way a human could possess such an aura! He must be a demon! A demon in human skin! We must defeat him here and now!"
"Kill!"
Lord Reingard didn't waste his breath; he directly gave the kill order to his men.
In the next instance, the group of loyal Battle Kings immediately charged ahead of their palace lords with disregard for their own safety. They will use their lives to create an opening for their palace lords!
At the same time, the two palace lords intended to use them as cannon fodders.
Shing!
Boom!
Two streaks of lights, a sword wave with ice-lightning power, and a spatial cutter that tore through the dimension slashed at the empty ground and created two long scars before the Battle Kings' feet.
The Battle Kings were forced to halt their charge and shift their attention to the two women behind the young man.
"None of you shall interfere with our man's fights, or you will bear our wrath," Aria and Darlene stated coolly.
At the same time, their unique auras surged from their bodies.
The Battle Kings' momentum was cut short, and their morale dropped. They stared at Aria and Darlene with serious expressions.
Not only was the young man powerful, but even his women were powerful!
