Chapter 1243
Yaakov was an eighth-ranked grandmaster but had sustained countless injuries from previous battles.While he was distracted by the attacks from James’ Thirteen Heavenly Swords, James seized the opportunity and went behind him.He pressed the Blade of Justice against Yaakov’s back.Yaakov froze.He could not believe that he would lose to a youngster like James.“It’s your loss, old man.” A voice as cold as the blade pressed against his back came from behind him.James’ sword did not pierce through Yaakov’s body but could easily do so if he exerted the slightest force.“I lost?”Yaakov’s jaw hung open.Members of the Lee and Sullivan family watched this scene in grim silence. Their faces were all clouded over.Yaakov Johnston, who held an image as the peerless grandmaster for over a hundred years, had just been defeated by a man a fraction of his age.The other martial artists that rushed over to watch the battle in the dark also had concerned expressions.Strong.James wa

“Grand Patriarch Yaakov!!!”The Johnstons immediately rushed over to Yaakov’s fallen body.Yaakov’s chest was bleeding continuously and heaved painfully with each breath.His blood stained the ground red.Yaakov’s family members propped him up gently.“Haha…”Yaakov knew he was dying but chuckled with satisfaction of having gotten rid of a problem for his family before his death.He laughed and laughed until his very last breath.“Ahh, Grand Patriarch…”The Johnstons wept bitterly.Meanwhile, James also collapsed on the ground and passed out.Whoosh!At that moment, a figure quickly rushed out from the shadows.It was Simon who had been secretly watching everything.He quickly held up James’ hand and checked his pulse.Shortly afterward, Jackson rushed over as well and asked anxiously, “How is he doing, Grandpa?”Simon said solemnly, “He’s in a terrible state. His meridians are broken, and his internal organs have sustained severe damage.”He quickly pulled James up an
Chapter 1245
Simon did not contribute much in the previous battle to kill the Spirit Turtle. However, he managed to snatch a core using his overwhelming strength.Yet, he had exhausted much of his True Energy to heal James and was slightly fatigued after the fact.Although he consumed an elixir and recovered some of his True Energy, he had expended a significant amount of his True Energy, and it was impossible to return to his peak in such a short period.He quietly guarded James.“Tsk, tsk. Simon.”While Simon sat and waited for Jackson to find the Cadens for help, a menacing laughter came from behind him.He heard the sound and turned around to have a look.A group of people approached him from a distance.There were about twenty people, and the person in the lead was Lucjan.The people behind were all dressed in black robes and wore black masks.These people were elites of the Gu Sect and were originally Callan’s subordinates but had already been secretly bribed by Lucjan a long time a
Chapter 1246
He also managed to snatch a core with his strength and the assistance of his subordinates. Now, he was planning to snatch away the cores that other people had taken.However, he was unsure who else had snatched a core.“This sure was worth the trouble. After consuming it, my strength will increase significantly, and the realm of the ninth rank will be within my grasp.” Lucjan smiled to himself faintly and quickly left to search for the others who might have taken a piece of the core.He did not bother himself with James and Simon anymore because his numerous subordinates were strong core members of the Gu Sect.The weakest ones were at the peak of the sixth rank, and many of them were of the seventh rank. Simon who was low on True Energy would find it challenging to escape with them chasing after him.After Jackson departed, he quickly searched for Bennet and Tobias.At that moment, the two had already stepped outside the range of Mount Thunder Sect’s territory.Bennet placed To
Chapter 1247
Jackson quickly led Bennett back to the place where James and Yaakov had their battle. However, there was no one to be seen.Bennett scanned the area as he asked, “Where is he?” Jackson’s expression turned grim as he said, “What’s going on? They were still here when I left. Our Grand Patriarch was guarding him right here. Why is there no one here now? Did someone come after I left?”“Let’s search the area.”Bennett also guessed that an unexpected situation must have occurred.After giving the order, he quickly left and searched the surrounding area.Meanwhile, Thomas led Thea deep inside the Snow Cavern as they tried to find a way out.The paths underground were nothing short of labrynthian, extending deeper beneath the surface. It became increasingly colder as they traveled deeper. Even Thomas felt the chill in the air and used his True Energy to resist the cold.He turned around and asked, “Are you cold, Thea?” “Huh? No.” Thea’s thoughts were interrupted by the sudden
Chapter 1248
Everyone was paranoid that Thomas would suddenly attack them.He was infamous for being a ruthless man.In order to kill the Spirit Turtle, that calculative man schemed and dragged in all the martial artists of the world into his plan.Thomas looked at everyone but remained silent.He looked at Thea and said, “You stay with them, Thea. If James is alright, he’ll arrange for you guys to be rescued. I’ll continue searching the area.”Thomas was determined to find the secret hidden underground.He planned to turn around and search the area again.“Alright.” Thea nodded.Thomas said nothing to the other martial artists and walked away coldly.After he left, the other martial artists finally felt like they could breathe again.Meanwhile, Simon was still escaping along with James’ unconscious body in his arms. However, his True Energy had been rapidly depleted as he was constantly using it to escape.Unable to spend more True Energy, they quickly hid behind a rock. After placing

Bennett left Mount Thunder Sect’s territory carrying James in his arms.When he reached the road, he got ready to drive to Terentville and find a quiet place in the suburbs where he could heal James’ injuries.Suddenly, a number of helicopters hovered over him in the sky.In just a few moments, more helicopters joined them until there were hundreds of them surrounding Bennet.It turned out to be Henry who rushed over with support from the Capital.After receiving James’ order, he quickly made arrangements and rushed to James’ location as promptly as he could.“Why is there an army?”Bennett looked at the sky with wary eyes.He did not know if these were troops sent by the king to eliminate the remaining ancient martial artists on the mountain.The helicopters slowly descended.Henry, wearing a military uniform, was the first to alight off one of the helicopters.When he got off, he immediately spotted Bennett carrying another man.He approached Bennett and asked, “Who might

Callan rushed over, got on his knees, and picked up James' hand to check James’ pulse. After a while, his lips curved into a deep frown and he asked, “What happened for him to sustain such terrible injuries? His internal organs have all sustained some form of damage, and his meridians have been shattered. It’s already a miracle that he’s still breathing right now.”Bennett sighed. “This kid is too tender-hearted. After defeating Yaakov, he showed him grace and allowed Yaakov to escape with his life. However, Yaakov put everything he had into an underhanded sneak attack and severely injured him.”Callan stood up, looked at Bennett, and said, “Bennett, I know the Candes have unparalleled medical skills, but there’s nothing you can do to help him in this state… Fortunately, I’ve got a method to save and keep him alive, but…”“But what?”Bennett stared hard at Callan.He began guessing the identity of the person before him. Who exactly was this ambiguous old man?Among the best of th
