Chapter 1042 - Acting President Fang Ye! (2/2)

After recalling the puppets into his space, the city lord began an embarrassing escape journey. Without his puppets, the threat he posed sunk to the bottom and this was a signal for the rest of Illusion Sword to join the fight.

Being targeted whether he summoned or didn’t summon his puppets, the city lord was in a dilemma. While he tried to make a decision, he was hit again and again by the stones. Still, he was a nine-aperture Exquisite Rank. Despite not using a puppet, his shield formed of origin energy allowed him to run for over ten minutes, but this slowly whittled down his energy to a fatally low level.

However, the city lord revealed a ruthless smile.

“Boy, you have no chance.” He stared intently at Fang Ye. The next second, the whole city was enveloped in a golden light, of which the city lord absorbed to the last bit. When he was done, he was like a newly recharged machine and the energy in his body was even overflowing!

“Retreat!!” Fang Ye shouted upon realizing that something was wrong.

The Illusion Sword members nearby immediately passed the order while moving to a safe place. Meanwhile, Fang Ye took out his Starnet Brilliance and activated it.

“It’s no use! You’ll all die sooner or later!”

The city lord’s voice echoed in Fang Ye’s ears, but he was not one bit flustered like the former had expected. Into Oblivion rapidly transformed into full-body armor covering Fang Ye right before the invincible barrier disappeared. Behind his back were two rocket lights that shot him up into the sky.

Just like that, Fang Ye disappeared in front of the city lord. It was not teleportation, it was just extreme speed, so fast that the city lord’s all-out attack hit nothing.

“I see, so you have a puppet that can accelerate.” With a sneer, the city lord figured out why Fang Ye’s stones could chase after him.

“You got it wrong.” Fang Ye chuckled and mobilized his spirit.

The city lord found that he could not say a thing. Then, his expression grew ugly – He could not breathe!

During the city lord’s stupor, sharp silver spikes emerged from the area Fang Ye had just stood on and pierced through the city lord’s energy armor. The effect of Spiritual Attachment in the spikes heavily impacted the city lord’s soul and he instantly looked languished. Then, his skin began to dry up at a terrifying speed.

“Although I don’t know what you just did, it should be limited to only your body and energy. You can’t fix the damage to your spirit.” Fang Ye watched the city lord’s expression turn into that of despair and continued, “But that doesn’t matter. My Dragon Beard Needles are poisoned. Since you don’t have enough spirit to concentrate on resisting, you only have less than 20 seconds to live.”

As Fang Ye said, the city lord’s vitality was drained bit by bit until he collapsed like a log of deadwood.

“How did you cultivate to Exquisite Rank with that intelligence?” Fang Ye shook his head with pity and inhaled a deep breath. “Clean up Nine Dragons City!”
