353 The First Move ? (1/2)

Zhao Yao fixed his eyes on Old Cat before commenting, ”I guess it's not as easy as I expected to bring these people away after all.”

Old Cat gave a bellow of laughter and sneered, ”What do you think?” Now, he had both Purple Sabre Fairy and Lin Chen, the two strongest apostles, under his control. Just the two of them had elevated Old Cat's combat strength to a whole new level. Joy danced through his heart at the thought of it.

However, the hordes of villages and civilians who stood behind Zhao Yao rushed forward, blocking Zhao Yao from Old Cat's sight.

”Old Cat, I'll not allow you to kill him!”

”This person knows the secret behind the true miracle water!”

”Following him promises wealth and fortune that we cannot possibly imagine.”

Black Panther clutched tightly against the dagger in his hand. Fear and hesitation flashed cross his eyes as his body began shaking slightly. However, he remained steadfast in his commitment to save his master.

Fear crossed the girl's face when she witnessed this baffling scene. She just screamed at her phone, ”There are hundreds of people standing face to face with Old Cat. All of them will die if you do nothing about this!”

”Just come up with something to protect them!”

”Protect them?” The girl's body shuddered with anger as she let out a deafening yell, ”This is the high-frequency vibration sword that you are referring to! Combined with Lin Chen's extreme speed, even a tank cannot withstand the attack! How am I supposed to protect those civilians from it?”

Old Cat watched as the villagers came to Zhao Yao's defense, one by one. A vein popped out in his neck as he listened to his defectors begging for mercy on Zhao Yao's behalf. These traitorous actions further infuriated him as he gave a dismissive wave of his paws, ”Destroy them.”

Purple Sabre Fairy's pupils constricted as three plasma sabers shot out of his palms and went straight for Zhao Yao. The plasma sabers pierced through the air before puncturing Zhao Yao's head, chest, and even stomach.

At the same time, a thunderous blast exploded in his ears. By the time they had reacted to the situation, Lin Chen was already inches away from Zhao Yao with his sword resting against Zhao Yao's chest. A vicious aura emanated from Lin Chen's body as he shot his sword in the air before slamming it against Zhao Yao's chest.

This strike could have easily torn a giant truck into pieces, let alone a human's body.

However, Black Panther remained in front of Zhao Yao. The moment Lin Chen disappeared into thin air, Black Panther reacted by letting out an earsplitting howl before thrusting his dagger forward.

There was no way that he could possibly see Lin Chen's actions. He also had no idea where Lin Chen's sword was coming from. Thrusting his dagger forward was a gamble in hopes of deflecting Lin Chen's attack.

In Lin Chen's eyes, Black Panther's actions were as slow as a snail but the position of his dagger somehow obstructed the swing of his sword.

Hence, the high-frequency vibration sword sliced across Black Panther's dagger as if it were tofu before continuing down its trajectory towards Zhao Yao. If not for his last-ditch effort, their bodies would have already been split into two.

However, Lin Chen's sword simply froze in the air after slicing through Black Panther's dagger.

Until now, Lin Chen's sword was regarded as an invincible and indestructible weapon. However, it had its first taste of defeat when it was intercepted by a finger which let out a faint golden glow.

Bam!

Boom!

Surges of waves exploded into the surroundings from the collision between the sword and the finger. The impact was mind-blowing as the blasts radiated into every corner of the district.

However, the three plasma sabers seemed indifferent to the effects of the stunning blasts and continued straight towards Zhao Yao.

”Get lost.”

The next moment, a blinding beam of light erupted from the sky, hurling Lin Chen into the air as he came crashing into a building.

The girl, who remained on the top of the knoll, stared dumbfoundedly at the sudden turn of events, ”Stopped …”

The voice from her phone sounded extremely nervous, ”Who was stopped? What was stopped?”

”Lin Chen is stopped.”

”How is that even possible?”
