Chapter 2252 Thank you

Because the dark-skinned man was someone with no Battle Power at all, Alex's attacks were troublesome to handle. It was no different from fighting someone his equal so he would have to. The man realized that he had just pulled himself back into a more serious fight than the last one.

He quickly held his sword in a stance, it glowing brightly as Sword Qi flew around him as he used its aura.

"That's not a bad Sword Aura," Alex said. "Let me show you something better though."

He pulled out Midnight, and the moment he did so, the world seemed to freeze. The sword brightened up immediately, sending out Sword Qi of its own as it all spread around Alex, forming Sword Aura.

The man was stunned to see Alex so easily pull out Sword Aura, but when the Sword Qi started appearing around him randomly in a radius, his face paled with fear. Nôv(el)B\\jnn

"Sword..." he said in a hoarse, fearful voice. "Sword Domain."

Alex smiled. "If you cannot stop this," he said, "You will die."

Midnight glowed golden as he filled it with True Metal dao, preparing for an attack.

"No-NO!" the man finally understood that he had messed with the wrong person. He should have quit while he could. Instead, he had brought misfortune upon himself.

He turned around immediately, trying to run away, but Alex wouldn't let him.

Endless Severing Strike!

The attack was near-invisible even to one's perception. The man could barely sense its approach, and with how fast it was, he had no chance to dodge.

He turned around, quickly bringing out a talisman to create a barrier in front of him at the last moment. The barrier formed, and then was immediately destroyed as Alex's sword strike cut right through it.

The man screamed only halfway when his body was cut into halves, the two sides slowly dropping from the sky into the land in the distance that was untouched.

"I must say, your disciple is higher in cultivation base than I would have thought. As expected of Brother Dawnblade," she said, smiling.

Momo smiled proudly at those words. She was more than happy whenever someone praised her.

"You guys keep talking. I have something small to do. I'll be right back."

Alex walked into his room and activated the barriers before calling out Pearl. Pearl appeared on the floor before him, appearing quite tired and haggard. His eyes drooped in a way that almost made him look drunk.

"How are you feeling?" Alex asked.

"Like I need sleep," Pearl said, laughing a little at his own words. "I just need some rest, brother."

Alex nodded. "I'm sorry for forcing you into a fight where you were forced to use up a drop of your Blood Essence," he said. "How many drops do you have?"

Pearl shook his head. "I don't know. It was 10 before, but after it integrated into my body post-evolution, the number could have changed. Judging by how horrible I feel though, I fear the number might not be more than 3. That goes in line with what my grandpa said."

"What did Brother Shen say?" Alex asked curiously.

"That beasts like us need to be careful about how we use our blood essence. It is low in amount and takes a while to come back," Pearl said. "I might need some pills to improve my blood for a while, brother."

"Don't worry, I will get you whatever you need," Alex said. "Once we're in the Pillheaven Continent, I will make everything we will be needing going forward. From healing pills to cultivation pills."

"The initial hurdle of having to earn money to buy ingredients is over now. Now, things will be far simply on the financial front," Alex said. Pearl slowly nodded. "I cannot wait to get back to being able to cultivate fast once again. That will definitely help my blood essence reform faster."

Alex patted Pearl on the shoulders. "Stay here and rest. I will bring Jai Heiyun to talk to you a while later," he said. "And again, I'm sorry for what I made you do."

"Brother," Pearl said quickly. "I did what I did because I needed to do it. You were not at fault. Even if you were, we are brothers. You don't have to keep apologizing about this. Okay?"

Alex paused for a moment and smiled. "I suppose you are right," he said, slapping Pearl on the back once again. "If I can't say sorry, then let me say this instead. Thank you."
