"Weak! Too Weak!" Leylin laughed as he started at Mary with merciless eyes.
Mary looked at him a horrified expression, "You..!"
"Cheeee cheee cheee!" Suddenly a flash of thunder containing rage and devastation, along with a ghostly figure sparkled and bumped against Leylin's outer protective shield.
"Fuck You!" Wilde shouted as he hit Leylin with his full force but the lack of physical feeling told him that he missed again, this astonished him to no end.
"You cannot kill me, you just can't catch me. Speed kills!" Leylin figure reappeared glancing coldly at the three remaining warriors, Crescent Emissary, Wilde and Mary Dunn.
"Who are you!?"
"Doesn't matter! No need to waste my time, winners get to live and losers die. Let's get this over with."
"Don't act smart, even if you have special means or perhaps an unique martial spirit there is a limit to your Profound Qi." Wilde snorted coldly as he accurately analyzed as how Leylin outer armor isn't recovering anymore like previously.
"Hahah... that's true!" Contrary to his belief, Leylin wasn't stressed, panicked or on edge. He oddly accepted the truth without making any attempt at rejecting the notion.
"You think you are unbeatable. Don't think just cause you kill that good for nothing, you can have any chance against us."
Crescent emissary, and Wilde both appeared from behind and stood next to Mary and blocked Leylin from both sides, while watching him cautiously.
"We would see about that. Stop talking, I am not a fan of interacting with corpses." Leylin channelled the devour energy constantly refining in his body and replenished his powers.
"You are seeking death!"
Crescent emissary shouted and suddenly shot towards Leylin like a sharp sword.
"Not fast enough." Leylin looked straight into Mary's eyes for a brief second which caused her to shudder uncontrollably and stay rooted.
Leylin didn't waste any time as he also shoot forward, his body was covered with white smoke and the smell of death. He looked like a terrifying devil!
"Mary!" Wilde cried out in fear and returned his steps away from Leylin fleeing towards Mary like lightning.
Wilde was at the First Sky of Disaster Level, thus he could see Leylin's amazing explosiveness! How could Mary bear such violent force, he could also completely see that Leylin did something similar to what transpired against Bernard.
Wilde would absolutely not believe that there is no tricks involved in Leylin killing Bernard hence his attention was focused on his every move.
"Cheechee!"
Leylin slammed his foot down and cut a long gouge in the ground. Suddenly, his body changed direction and rushed towards Crescent Emissary, moving faster than before.
"Bang!"
Just before the collision Crescent emissary conjured a shield and after Leylin clashed with him, in the pervading sparkles, the white fog faded away and the ghostly shadow seemed to be melting and dispersed into the air bit by bit.
Noticing the shield could defend against Leylin, Crescent emissary became a little relieved as well as embarrassed to feel apprehension towards a mere Nascent realm. He then sneered cunningly, "Kid, let me see what else you've got!"
A cold, evil air dispersed from the sparkles with the continuous sound of "chee chee". Unnoticed by Crescent emissary, the air went into his body through his pores.
After that sneer, his face turned dumb and panic welled up from his eyes.
A bright light crossed Leylin's eyes!
"Don't go near him and breath the white mist around him." Wilde from behind shouted as he threw a few attacks in Leylin way.
This fight is the most frustrating one, he has even fought and although it looked so simple and would be elementary if joined forces against Leylin, but from his years of experience Wilde can see that everyone of Leylin's move hides beneath them multiple layers of cunningness, he has never felt so easily figured by anyone.
Leylin could have been defeated if they joined forces together despite his speed but his control of the situation, movement, technique, attacks, defense and even every sentence has a hidden intent, he could barely scrape!
According to Crescent emissary's facial expressions, though he had tried to clear the weird power, he couldn't wipe it all away. Some of it had already invaded his mind.
"I can't let the boy live, I need to kill him!" Wilde who understand the situation made a tough decision as he decided to attack even at the risk of leaving Mary unguarded. If Mary was a normal junior of the family he would have not cared much but she an important genius of the family and more importantly, is the fiancee of the young master from one of the five Noble families.
After a loud yell, Leylin sped up to his maximum speed changing his assault direction, putting Wilde in his line of sight and Crescent emissary between them as an obstacle.
He appeared in front of Crescent emissary all of a sudden, leaving a light shadow in the open air.
The dagger, with glowing blue light, stabbed toward his neck with a rush, which looked as if it was lightning.
The protective shield in his hand was getting hotter and hotter. The temperature almost woke him up from the numbness.
Crescent emissary opened his eyes abruptly!
"Haaaaooo!' Crescent emissary hauled, thus he suppressed all the negative emotions which had invaded his mind, at the same time, he drew a circle in the air with a sword in the right hand.
*Boom*
Wilde appeared near the two as he attacked immediately, he didn't care about Crescent emissary being in the way, he attacked full force with the intention to kill.
"Kangchang!"
Leylin's dagger stabbed into the Crescent Emissary sword while a nasty explosion came out from the sword. Meanwhile Wilde attack rushed towards Leylin arm through the dagger.
Leylin's arm became so numb that he realized Crescent emissary's Profound Qi was very dense, therefore he moved the dagger away from the sword quickly dodging Wilde altogether.
Crescent emissary didn't react to Leylin. Instead, he turned his body like wind and blocked an attack from a short sword which came behind him with his sword. He said with a cold face, "What is the meaning of this Miss Dunn!"
Crescent emissary eyes were burning staring coldly at Mary who sneak attacked him, he looked into her eyes which grew rigid and the bloodthirstiness surging in her mind.
"Mary, what are you doing!?" Wilde shouted in horror.
"It's no use, she's lost." Wielding his dagger, Leylin muscles on the legs began to contract slowly as well. Negative power gushed out from his pores on the legs, covering them in a pale fog.
As his hands and feet all went through the changes, Mary couldn't control her bloodthirstiness any more.
She was overwhelmed by the desire for killing, and her eyes were getting more and more red, while her expression became as hideous as a devil from hell.
Even Wilde who was beside her was frightened with this sudden turn of events.
"Hoooohoooo!"
Her breaths got heavier and heavier. She stomped and could feel endless power in his feet. Her petite body advanced ten meters in one second!
Like a flying arrow. Fast and mighty!
Crescent emissary showed no mercy as his sword flew swiftly in the air and made cracking sounds endlessly. His momentum forced Mary to retreat as her arms got more and more painful holding the short sword. She turned weaker and weaker under the mere brunt of his strong Profound Qi.
A forceful, murderous air suddenly came from his back. Crescent emissary had a hideous look in his eyes as he struck his sword again, attacking Wilde.
"Bang!"
"What are you doing!?" Wilde was thrown a bit as he glared at Leylin and Crescent emissary with suspicion.
"What are you and this girl doing!?"
"It's this kids doing, calm down and stop fighting amongst ourselves."
Crescent emissary eyes were red as he snorted coldly and kicked his leg impatiently onto Mary's smooth abdomen heavily and she was kicked about seven meters away.
His kick contained a surging explosiveness as his Profound Qi exploded in an instant. He aimed to drain his fighting capacity slowly so that he could deal with Leylin.
Turning around, Crescent emissary brandished his sword with a vicious face. "Kid, I'm gonna slice you into a hundred pieces!"
"I don't play small games." Leylin ran up like an arrow and with the help of his impulses, he shifted all of his Profound Qi into his dagger.
As he brandished his dagger, the shadows of the dagger fell like rain drops; along with it, a cold vicious power was sent out from the dagger and enveloped Crescent emissary and Wilde.
