Chapter 396 (1/2)

Defeat (3)

Would Edward regret his decision to lie to Kesha if he knew what she was thinking? He should’ve been honest. It was just him asking for help, it wasn’t a big deal.

If only he knew what she thought… Perhaps then he wouldn’t have done the insane thing he did next…

Just as Ye Lang was gloating, Edward stood up. Wind magic essence rippled off his entire being, the air around him swirled faster and faster and there was one final blast.

Edward hurled himself right at Ye Lang…

This all happened in the blink of an eye. By the time the crowd wanted to remind Ye Lang, Edward -no, the ball of wind- was already very, very near him.

The ball of wind was blowing sand and dust in all directions. Based on the deep marks left on the ground, Ye Lang would be blown to pieces if the ball of wind hit him.

“Little Brother, be careful!”

“Ye Lang…”

“No…”

Some of them couldn’t bear to watch Ye Lang get killed. No one could save him in time.

But they seemed to have forgotten one thing: did Ye Lang even NEED help?

Maybe.

People who were more experienced in fighting knew what the ball of wind was. That was an illegal technique, one that was very rare and regular fighters would never use it during an event like this one.

This illegal technique released all of a person’s hidden potential in one second, increasing his/her capabilities by many folds. However, after this, the user would be heavily injured if he/she somehow didn’t die. They would never be able to wield douqi or magic forever.

That meant they’d be more useless than a kid with no attributes like Ye Lang. At least Ye Lang could still wield douqi and magic- but Edward would never be able to for the rest of his life.

The crowd hated Edward even more. If anything happened to Ye Lang, they were going to chop Edward into pieces.

“Edward… No… Why are you doing this…” Tears flowed from Kesha’s eyes as she screamed painfully.

Why was he doing this?

Perhaps even Edward couldn’t give an answer. The only thing he knew was the hopelessness he felt. He didn’t want to lose. Not like that.

He’d exploded after accumulations of anger over the past weeks, unleashing the illegal technique he should never have used.

The situation could be summarised into a few words: he couldn’t afford to lose and he was impulsive.

How was Ye Lang going to defend himself from the maniac using an illegal attack? He had no time to ponder why Edward did it, solving the problem was of utmost importance.

Edward currently had the power of a Heavenly Tian Level fighter now…

What next?

It was simple---
