661 Reunion (1/2)
Kaboom!
With that single movement, heads of a few dozen Immortals exploded.
”So, what will you choose? Are you going to kill yourself or you need my help?” Wang Tong's voice was cold. He was grateful for Charcoal's tip about the Immortals' operations. If he had come a little bit later, Ma Xiaoru's life could have been in danger.
”Kill him!” Yageli shouted and commanded the immortals to attack Wang Tong from all directions. Wang Tong threw his head back and looked into the sky above him as if searching for some invisible energy. Next, he spread his fingers out before suddenly clenching them.
BOOM!
The few dozen Immortals who charged at Wang Tong were stopped cold in their track, and then their heads exploded.
Meanwhile, the underground resistance force had made their way to the center of the encirclement, and everyone wondered if the warrior who came to Ma Xiaoru's rescue was Wang Tong. No one had seen him before, yet everyone felt that his face looked familiar.
Ever since Wang Tong was spotted on Mars, the humans on Earth had been yearning for his arrival…And there he was, standing right in front of them.
No other acts than the killing of the four Immortal generals could send a clearer message to the Immortals that he was here. The battle would not only be a show of resolution, but also a message to Patroclus that he had found a way to save the humans from his brutality.
In a blink, all the Immortals other than the four generals were dead. Their headless bodies slumped on the ground in death.
”Three strikes, wasn't it? I have a new proposal: if the four of you can withstand one punch from me, I will let you go. How does that sound?” Wang Tong held his hands behind back and scrutinized the expressions on the four immortals. His poised, overbearing and cold presence sent a chill down to the Immortals' spines.
”Wang Tong, don't let your conceit get the better of you. You…” Words got caught in Yalige's throat as he noticed Wang Tong's expression harden while his soul energy disappeared.
”You three head back now while you still can. I will handle him myself.”
”Boss, why are you afraid of him?”
”Shut your trap! Do as you are told.” Yageli refuted. He started to realize that Wang Tong was much more powerful than even the wildest rumors he had heard about him.
”Hehe, are you guys done talking? I am about to attack.”
”Go!”
Yageli charged at Wang Tong, but his level twenty-six soul energy seemed much less impressive in front of the latter. Meanwhile, the other three immortals, Gersar, Molin, and Hewitt, darted in three different directions.
How could Wang Tong attack four of them at the same time while they were so far apart?
Wang Tong met Yageli's attack with a simple punch. Although the punch was directed toward Yageli, it was the other three immortals who fell to the ground before the fist punctured a large hole through Yageli's chest.
”Space warp!”
”Because of your courage, I will give you a quick death.” Wang Tong said coldly, and all four immortal generals were dead before his voice faded away. In a blink of an eye, Wang Tong had turned the tables around and saved everyone. More and more human citizens gathered on the street to look at Wang Tong, their faces a mixture of confusion and hope.
”Citizens of Boston, you are free!” Wang Tong's voice boomed, echoing across the quiet city.
Dealing with the immortals stationed in the city was a piece of cake for Wang Tong, most of them getting killed and after this battle. Those who got away fled the city in panic.
Ma Xiaoru rushed toward Wang Tong and collapsed into his arms as she broke down in tears. This was the moment she had dreamed of every night, and it finally was no longer a dream.
Her tears and breakdown surprised even herself; she was not as strong as she had pretended to be.
Wang Tong hugged Ma Xiaoru tightly, and then both of them flashed out of view.
