*Boooooom!

The only thing Leo could see while standing on his location at the tip of Floating Mountain was a blinding white light that suddenly came from the location of Commander Ava and Lu Ming before it then quickly enveloped him and the other's right beside him.

And the last thing he knew before finally losing his consciousness was a white sphere that suddenly came out from the necklace that his Master Olivia had given him.

.....

As soon as the bright light vanished, the only thing left in the former Floating Mountain was a crescent moon shape island. The 500 kilometers diameter big Floating Mountain of before was now left with only a mere 1/4 of its total land, and what's even worse, the ocean water of Shark Cemetery was now slowly flowing inside the wide-open hole caused by Lu Ming's suicide, which also bought with it the Magical Beast Sharks.

”Huff! Huff! Ahhhhh!���

*Crink!

*Bang!

A bleeding man's hand pushed a border with all of his remaining strength as he then slowly climbed out of the hole, soon after.

If Leo was here or anyone else who wasn't a part of the Black organization, then they would be able to quickly realized that the man was actually Lu Ming.

”Luckily I was quick enough to pull out the 2 Galaxies inside of my consciousness and activated my Defensive Magical Artifact before both of the Galaxies exploded...” Lu Ming said to himself.

”That should be enough to wipe out a huge portion of Commander Ava's soldiers and also killing that detestable Leo!” Lu Ming said with a cunning smile on his face as he pushed another border.

*Crink

*Bang!

After that push, Lu Ming was finally out on the surface. He can't help feeling overjoyed in his heart as he then tried his best to walk towards a high ground to rest and recover. In front of him, numerous waterfalls have formed and water was now starting to fill up the wide hole he had created. He would definitely die if he doesn't get out of here as soon as possible.

”Argh!”

Lu Ming can't help but exclaim in pain as soon as he took another step forward. He had almost forgotten that his cultivation right now was comparable to a No Star Mage after blowing up his 2 Galaxies. So, his strength at this moment wasn't enough to endure the injury he had received, not to mention the only thing keeping him awake right now was only his will since he was now completely out of energy. Although he had used a powerful Defensive Magical Artifact, the Magic Power he had blown up still caused him to receive some injuries.

”I should be able to rest for a bit and recover my strength before the water could reach somewhere nearby my location...” Lu Ming decided. The numerous waterfall was still a few dozens of kilometers away from his current location, so resting tens or so of minutes should be fine.

*Clang!

Unexpectedly though, Lu Ming suddenly heard a sound behind him causing him to quickly turned around his head as he soon after noticed a person's shadow sitting on the top of a big stone.

”Is that Commander Ava...” Lu Ming fearfully thought to himself. If that person was really Commander Ava, then all of the sacrifices he had done awhile ago would immediately be deemed useless. He can't help but hope in his heart that it wouldn't turn out to be her or even one of the Generals, but instead just a seriously injured teacher, or best a lost student or a normal soldier.

As the dust cleared out a bit, Lu Ming was finally able to see a bit of the man's figure. Fortunately, it wasn't any of the figures he had been familiar with.

”Who are you?”

Hearing Lu Ming's voice, the man quickly turned his head as he stared straight in Lu Ming's direction.

Lu Ming immediately started to shiver as he saw the man's eyes. It was the eyes of the person he was really familiar with. The eyes that had caused his plan to failed.

”Is that you Leo?!” Lu Ming angrily yelled.

”Leo? Are you perhaps talking about my younger brother?” The man said as he slowly walked out of the shadow and revealed himself to Lu Ming.

Lu Ming was soon after struck dumbfounded the moment he saw the entire man's face. It really looked similar to Leo's, the only difference was the somewhat mature face, the eyes were a lot brighter in color, and the body build was much bigger than Leo.

That wasn't the most important part though as Lu Ming finally realized what Commander Ava really meant about an overprotective older brother asked her a favor to protect his younger brother.

”You...”

”Ayst, you really caused me a lot of trouble Puppet Master Lu Ming. Not only did you cause me to lose my younger brother as his Defensive Magical Artifact threw him somewhere I don't know, but you have also almost killed all of my younger brother's friend, caused my friend to lose a lot of her men, and also caused a Leviathan to die!” Reinhart solemnly said as his Magic power slowly started spreading out around him, soon after causing Lu Ming to realized that this man was actually a 9th Galaxy Mage.

”I...”

”It's too late to apologize now, Lu Ming!” Reinhart quickly grabbed Lu Ming's neck before dangling him up in the air.
