Not long after, Arthur killed all the transcendents sent by the Spencer family.

Afterward, he walked over with a smile.

With Lu Yu’s reminder, he already knew about the change in the mayor’s expression just now. It seemed that he had already recognized Arthur.

However, Arthur didn’t mind.

He walked up to Mayor Hesius and the townspeople without his initial disguise. In an instant, the eyes of the people shouting earlier turned solemn, especially the town chief.

His eyes were filled with tears, and his vision was blurry. “Arthur? Is that you?”

“I was wondering why a transcendent would go so far to save us.”

“So you’re Arthur!”

The town chief held Arthur’s hand tightly, unwilling to let go. The tragedy that happened to Arthur a month ago was still fresh in his mind.

When that happened, he wondered if Arthur would be destroyed by hatred. But now, not only was Arthur fine, but he had even become stronger to the point where he could resist Baron Spencer!

After seeing Arthur’s familiar face, the other residents gathered around him. They gently touched Arthur’s face and asked him about his situation in the past month.

Such a scene brought warmth to Arthur’s heart. After they left, Arthur glanced at Mayor Hesius and Alexander, the chief of the Public Security Bureau. The both of them gave Arthur flattering smiles.

“You go tell Baron Spencer that if I don’t see him within an hour, I’ll kill everyone in his building!” Arthur sternly said. Afterward, Arthur walked away.

Mayor Hesius and Alexander exchanged glances before dashing to Baron Spencer’s fortress.

If they didn’t bring the news over, they felt that the two second-level users wouldn’t have a clash. However, they didn’t want to risk their family members by disobeying Arthur’s words.

After a short while, Baron Spencer’s mansion was filled with furious roars. After hearing that his son and Klein had died, Baron Spencer was in a state of fury. Arthur had come back as an energy level two user to take revenge.

Baron Spencer took out his weapon and roared, itching to go out and grind Arthur’s bones to dust. The mayor, who came to deliver the news, chose to shut up when he saw Baron Spencer’s furious look.

Previously, he wanted to tell the Baron that Arthur’s longsword was very strange; however, he swallowed his words.

“Perhaps it’ll be more beneficial for me to let him know one less piece of information. This way, both Arthur and Baron Spencer will suffer a great loss.”

The news that Arthur was fighting the Spencer family spread over the town in a split second. Many constables, including Alexander, had spread the word to many people. It didn’t only spread to Huska as other towns also heard the news.

In the dark, many transcendents went to watch the battle. Of course, these people knew what Baron Spencer had done, along with the slaughtering of Arthur’s family. They were impressed that Arthur had come back for revenge like a warrior.

However, they didn’t think Arthur would win this duel. After all, Arthur was too young. He didn’t know the vast difference between those who had just entered energy level two and those at the peak of the second level.

Additionally, Baron Spencer had been at the peak of the second energy level for many years. His current strength was already beyond imagination. Due to this, they felt that Arthur should find a transcendent academy and return after cultivating further. If he chose to face Baron Spencer now, he might die on the spot.

On the other hand, the kind-hearted townspeople were trying to persuade Arthur to leave.

“Child, you still have a future. You’ll definitely become stronger if you cultivate first.”

“Don’t take any risks this time. Baron Spencer’s strength couldn’t be matched by those people who had just entered the second energy level.”

“Hurry up and run!” The town chief’s expression was extremely anxious. They knew that Arthur had entered energy level two within this month. Moreover, it was likely that he had reached this level only a few days ago.

In opposition, Baron Spencer had been in the second energy level for more than ten years. He had much more experience and power compared to Arthur.

As minutes and seconds passed by, their hearts began to race.

“You want to leave after killing my son? I’m going to use the blood of everyone here to accompany your death!”

Everyone could hear a loud sound from afar.

In the distance, a figure appeared. He was riding a black horse as he wore knight armor and held a spear. A group of people followed behind him.

Arthur’s eyes turned red the moment he saw the figure. This was the person who had taken everything from him.

Lu Yu felt Arthur’s hand, which was holding the hilt of the sword, tremble slightly. Hatred made Arthur unable to control his emotions.

The transcendents who had already received the news had gathered to watch the battle. Looking at the scene in front of them, they had already determined the winner.

“Baron Spencer is too powerful. His strength could match those powerhouses on energy level three!”

“Even though Arthur has reached the second level, he doesn’t understand the situation! how can a few days make up for more than ten years?”

“The gap is too big. Alas, I don’t think Arthur can resist even one move from Baron Spencer!”

The spectators made their judgments about the duel. Meanwhile, Verus and the town chief had retreated into the town, far away from the battlefield.

They watched the situation in front of them nervously. Their hearts were beating fast. Facing Baron Spencer, Arthur could barely win.

“Brat, I didn’t expect that you would cause such a problem after you escaped last time. Today, I’ll end this and send you to hell with your dead family members!” Baron Spencer said in a cold voice.

“You can dream for another chance once you’re in hell. I’ll wipe out you and your family on this day!” Arthur’s eyes were red from anger. Alas, the hostility between the two really could never be resolved.

Bang! Bang!

Clang!

The battlefield was filled with all sorts of clashing sounds.

To everyone’s surprise, the two people were evenly matched!

After rounds of fighting, Arthur, who was thought to be at a disadvantage, seemed to be as powerful and agile as Baron Spencer!

The spectators were stunned.

“What? Arthur has just entered energy level two, but he’s somehow on par with Baron Spencer!”

“This is too shocking! How strong would he get once he reaches the pinnacle of the second energy level?”

“However, I don’t think Arthur will have the chance to reach the pinnacle. With Baron Spencer’s armor, Arthur can’t do anything to him at all.”
