Chapter 1552: Two Assassins?

Ancestor Dian Alstreim's eyes turned wide as he belatedly noticed the existence of a black-robed man near Davis. His scalp turned numb as he stood up, wanting to defend Davis from this sudden appearance of an assassin.

However, the swing of the black-robed man's arm was extremely fast, something a Law Dominion Stage brat or even a Martial Sage Expert would be unable to defend against at such a close range when caught off-guard.

How could he make it in time?

Intense regret welled up within him. It was over! He failed to protect Davis.

At the same time, the black-robed man evilly grinned as his palm made it to Davis's cheeks.

However, after the black-robed man completed the swing, there was no sound of a slap, much less an impact that he felt on his palm. Instead, a searing pain erupted in his left shoulder.

When he saw what had happened with a slight swivel of his head, he saw something incredulous.

"My... my arm...!? Hck- Arghh!!!!"

He screamed like a pig as he staggered behind as his steps faltered. Feeling a burning sensation spread throughout his shoulder, he flinched at this unexpected scenario. The throbbing made him aware that his arm was ripped apart by some unknown force. It made him feel extreme pain as blood continued to keep spurting like a fountain.

However, he quickly brought it under control and turned to look at Davis before finding his severed arm below him, beneath his shoes, stepped and desecrated.

An intense feeling of humiliation crept into his mind.

Nevertheless, time was ticking, and losing an arm was nothing. He understood that he could not remain even a few seconds longer and rushed forward to attack. His poisonous undulations spread rampantly, trying to harm the people in the Grand Wedding Hall.

But at the same time, Ancestor Dian Alstreim appeared in front of Davis, and Sect Master Bing Luli erected an ice barrier that instantly encroached the area they were in, sealing the poisonous Law Rune Stage undulations from leaving while pushing away and obstructing the other cultivators to safety outside.

The Dragon Families appeared stunned, unable to take any action.

Just when every powerhouse who made it in time thought that it was over for this assassin, another black-robed man who was masked suddenly appeared beside Isabella from nowhere as he seemed to reach out his hand to her.

"...!?"

Ancestor Dian Alstreim and Sect Master Bing Luli's panicked as they saw this scene from the corner of their eyes. Ancestor Tirea Snow, who had followed them one step later, had just arrived, but she was still far from reaching Isabella as he was approaching Davis to protect his women!

They didn't expect another one to appear out of nowhere!

Just when they thought Dragon Queen Isabella would be captured, essentially rendering them unable to attack, they saw Isabella wave her hand towards her aggressor, the back of her hand crossing over his hand before it slapped his chest.

*Bang!~*

Blood spurted out in all directions as it plunged to the floor. The black-robed man's whole body instantly exploded, causing their eyes to widen in incredulity!

'Devil Bane...!?'

Blood Thorn, the only remaining aggressor, looked at the exploding body of Devil Bane in shock.

What the hell did happen? However, he still focused on Evelynn Loret, trying to fake capture Davis to capture her from Ancestor Dian Alstreim and Sect Master Bing Luli's blockade.

"Tch~"

But before he could even react and near them, a sound of annoyance echoed.

Isabella really didn't expect a person to sneak up on her when distracted that she was forced to kill him with her physical force. It ended up exposing her abnormal physical might, but it didn't matter anymore.

Her voice echoed as she abruptly disappeared from her location and appeared in front of Blood Thorn, stomping between his chest and abdomen with her foot as she crashed down on him.

Her speed was extremely fast that no one saw her move even when they all had their eyes on her.

Blood Thorn spat a mouthful of blood as he felt his internal organs rupture. At the same time, his middle dantian and lower dantian actually cracked, causing his scalp to turn numb.

Isabella's eyes were cold. She raised her long leg that remained on Blood Thorn and ruthlessly stomped again, causing his dantians to shatter.

"Noooo!!!!!"

A cry of despair echoed in the Grand Wedding Hall as poisonous Law Rune Stage undulations began to leak. It possessed an attribute that would cause people to instantly die as their blood mixes, contaminates, and hardens blood enough to explode from within, but Ancestor Dian Alstreim's blazing flames and Sect Master Bing Luli's ice wall effectively stopped such poisonous air from spreading.

The poisonous air quickly left instead of leaking slowly as the lower dantian had completely shattered.

"Excellent, Isabella!"

A voice fell on her mind before she turned to look at Davis and saw him arrived beside her.

Just when Ancestor Dian Alstreim and the others thought that it was dangerous for Davis to be near a hostile Ninth Stage Powerhouse of poisonous prowess, who could have numerous deadly methods up his sleeve, they saw him crouch and remove Blood Thorn's mask before touching Blood Thorn's forehead with his finger.

Davis's soul force abruptly penetrated Blood Thorn's soul sea's passive defenses.

Blood Thorn started to tremble as he gasped for breath and spat out small pieces of internal organs simultaneously. The shock of having his dantians destroyed already made him feel like he was on his deathbed but having his soul sea pierced almost made him feel faint.

Before he could even understand what happened, a slave seal manifested on his soul essence, etching its imprint deeply enough as if though it could never be erased, causing his eyes to tremble in sheer disbelief.

Had he become a slave as of this moment?

He incredulously looked at the brat who didn't enter his eyes and the beautiful woman whom he thought of as nothing but a Martial Master Stage genius.

Never in his life did he face such a humiliating defeat!

Who... Just who were these youngsters!?

Some old monsters in disguise!?

They instantly stomped him to slavery!

Blood Thorn laid helplessly on the surface, wallowing in despair. He could only look at the dome's barrier, wondering why he agreed to accompany Devil Bane to kidnap just a Martial Master Stage brat's woman.

It should've been easier than kidnapping poisonous women from the Poison Rift Valley Territory, but why had he met such a fate like this in this lowly place?

"If you move or do anything, you die, you understand?"

Davis's cold voice echoed towards Blood Thorn. However, he didn't wait to hear the answer and turned towards Thorus Zlatan, his eyes possessing killing intent.

Thorus Zlatan's arms quivered ever so lightly as he felt shrouded in Davis's gaze. He abruptly noticed, becoming shocked deep inside.

'My blood was previously restless when I thought of teaching him a lesson. This brat... Is he really a subordinate...?'

He asked himself, feeling angered, humiliated, and even fearful to some degree for a reason he couldn't understand.

No one really saw if Davis severed Blood Thorn's hand. That arm was just lying on the ground while Davis stomped on it, seemingly disintegrating from its own poisonous blood.

It had now begun to fester, growing pus before it appeared to disintegrate as if eating itself from the inside.

Seems like that without its poisonous energy to support the blood, it was extremely toxic, even to the user. Nevertheless, this matter made him feel as if though Davis was hiding his strength, but it didn't matter at the moment. He was more shocked by the fact that Dragon Queen Isabella has attained such strength when still in Martial Sage Stage. However, that wasn't important at the moment too because...

Thorus Zlatan's expression increasingly trembled as he tried to think of some method to slay Blood Thorn. He couldn't help but recall what he spoke with Blood Thorn moments ago before they made a move.

[

"Ahahaha! This is funny! Extremely hilarious!"

A soul transmission echoed in Thorus Zlatan's mind.

"The Dragon Families actually sent four of their elites to kidnap Dragon Queen Isabella. How devious! How deplorable!"

Thorus Zlatan's eyes widened. He searched with his physical sense in the crowd and spotted a black-robed man. However, he didn't shout but sent a soul transmission to him.

"Who are you?"

Who would dare to threaten him, the Dragon Families like this?

It was none other than Devil Bane and Blood Thorn, but Thorus Zlatan still didn't know their identities.

"Who I am isn't important." Blood Thorn spoke, "What's important is that you gain back those spatial rings of your elites. After all, it was leaked, then your life is practically over while your power's reputation would practically be dragged to the gutter."

"I don't know what you are talking about?"

"Hehe, no need to fret." Blood Thorn chuckled, "We'll let you obtain those spatial rings if you allow us to capture our target named Evelynn Loret, who is that hateful subordinate's wife."

"Davis's first wife...?"

Thorus Zlatan's eyes instantly lit up as he glanced at Davis and the woman who sat close beside him. She was like a sponge, sticking her voluptuous body towards him, but he could see the brat talking with her even while Isabella sat beside him, telling him how he cared about her.

A sinister thought appeared in his mind before his expression turned into a smirk.

"Go ahead... I will not interfere and will not allow the others to interfere. However, you must get those spatial rings from Isabella. It doesn't seem like she will need her primary spatial ring either. Steal it for me but if you dare harm her, know that I will hunt you down to the ends of the Territory Fog even if I have to die in the process..."

He didn't ask why they needed Evelynn, for he only needed those spatial rings.

"Rest assured, for it is a done deal. Moreover, I'm glad to have someone who understands. Ahahaha!" Blood Thorn laughed before he reassured, "Then again, Overlord Thorus Zlatan doesn't have to worry about Dragon Queen Isabella's safety because I'm not foolish enough to offend the Dragon Families..."

"Hmph! You know your place...!"

"Yes, yes. I know very well..."

Thorus Zlatan sounded pleased while Blood Thorn deviously smiled behind his mask.

]

Thorus Zlatan clenched his fists as he remembered that short conversation which now ended up in a disaster unexpectedly. What appeared to be an easy task became easily thwarted by two unknown factors as if it was almost a miracle.

Nevertheless, there was only one thing he concentrated on now.

He absolutely must not let the captured Blood Thorn leak anything that would warrant him to be found guilty!
