Chapter 789 - Leos Plan (2/2)

”You are merciless.” Manness shook his head and sent the alcohol flying before he channeled his fire to the alcohol. After that, he sent another Sword Wave behind the fire.

Liza furrowed her eyebrows when she saw Manness burned his liquor. ”Wait! That's fuel?”

Manness lifted his mouth a little bit as the alcohol-fueled fire suddenly broke through the cold wind that Liza sent and covered his Fire Sword Wave.

”Just die, you old hag. The sooner you die, the better. After all, you don't need to watch how your disciples get killed in this battle.” Manness sighed.

”When are you going to stop underestimating me?” Liza ground her teeth and struck the Sword Wave with her sword. At the same time, the cold icy wind started gathering around her sword, and it spun like a fan to blow off this fire.

*Bang!*

The sound of this clash was like two metal clashing, but it sent an overbearing pressure and powerful shock wave to their surroundings, especially when the fire burned the ice and the ice froze the fire.

Manness and Liza still had the same expression as they glared at each other. They jumped again and tried close combat.

When their swords were about to clash, another presence suddenly appeared as a shadow emerged out of thin air. And that shadow also slashed forward.

”!!!” It was obvious that this shadow target was Manness. ”Drunken Sword Snake.”

Manness suddenly used all his power to strike the two incoming swords, not letting even a single of them hit his body.

*Clang Clang!*

The first clicking sound was normal since it came from Liza, but when Manness felt the second sword, he was shocked by how much power behind it and realized who just threw such a strike. ”Leo! Why are you here?”

”I defeated them. It's time for you to accept your death.” Leo snorted and kept attacking him, trying to injure him as much as possible with this surprise attack.

Liza took advantage of this and attacked him together.

”I won't be defeated!” Manness gritted his teeth and traded blows with them. However, as expected, he could only buy time in his fight against Liza, and now, with the interference from Leo, wounds started to appear in his body.

”No. You are strong, but you are not capable of killing them. You must be using a Teleportation Array Plate to arrive here!” Manness shouted as he kept blocking the attacks.

”Whatever. I only need a few minutes to kill the weakest 10-Star Martial Saint with this old hag as my partner.” Leo mocked him and made a few more wounds on his body.

”An opening!” Liza suddenly found an opening and planned to use it to cut one of Manness's arms. However, an overbearing pressure suddenly enveloped her, reducing her speed and strength greatly. ”This…”

*Clang!*

Manness didn't know what happened, but he parried the attack and blew the sword away by using that confusion. Not only that, he threw another strike toward Liza, pushing her back.

It was at this time, Liza found the source of the problem as she glanced in another direction, finding a woman who was utilizing her element to suppress her. ”You b*tch!”

Letizia found Manness got attacked not long ago, so she thought she needed to help him even if it meant exhausting all her Spiritual Energy. After all, Alex surely didn't want Manness to die just like this. Even though it was different from their plans, she didn't regret it and put everything to suppress her, even for a few seconds or minutes.

”You are not strong enough to suppress me to the point I can't fight back!” Liza snorted and slashed her sword downwards and vice versa. Each swing released five spikes that flew out of the sword, trying to impale her.

Since Letizia was putting all her energy to suppress her, so she couldn't fight Manness together with Leo, she shouldn't be able to avoid these spikes.

”Kh!” Letizia gritted her teeth. She should be able to shift her body a little bit to avoid vital areas, but that was all. She had prepared to take on these attacks.

Of course, Alex would surely not leave someone like her on the battlefield without protection. Jean suddenly appeared in front of her and raised his hand before a wall of water formed.

”Exquisite Water Body, Third Characteristic. Buoyancy!”

The moment it struck the water wall, the wall suddenly stretched to the back but was unable to be pierced by the ice as if it was very viscous.

The ice suddenly slowly melted as if it met hot water instead of normal water. Jean smiled upon this sight as he glanced at Letizia. ”Are you alright?”

”Yes. Thank you for helping me.”

”You have made a good judgment by helping that Manness. How long do you can hold your suppression?”

”Fifteen seconds.”

”Three seconds are enough. Keep your Spiritual Energy high enough for the long battle.” Jean nodded.

”Ho—”Just as she was about to ask How, Fabio and Vera appeared behind Liza, slashing their swords toward her.

”Twin Element Slash!” They used their usual couple combination technique, releasing a cross slash made of fire and ice.

”!!!” Liza obviously noticed their appearance and turned around. She should be able to handle this attack easily if she was in a normal condition, but this suppression was hindering her.

She ground her teeth and released all of her Spiritual Energy, burning the suppression even for a few seconds. ”No, you won't! Break!”

She shouted out loud, burning away a huge portion of her Spiritual Energy to block the attack and the suppression. After that, she struck Fabio and Vera, blowing them away.

”This is not good!” Letizia felt her suppression had been lifted from her, but Jean raised his hand, stopping her. ”It's alright. My master should also know this condition and obviously send the two…”

As he uttered those words, a Spatial Gate appeared as Viola and Riadon emerged within the gate, glaring at Leo. ”Found you!”
