The Ex-Husband's Revenge

Gulp! Taking advantage of the moment, Leon decisively took out a Holy Spirit Pill and swallowed it.

Initially, he intended to use an Essential Detox Pill to help Pierre, Zach, and the other two Semi- Saint State fighters counteract the poison.

However, with Pierre injured by Wulfric and Zach along with the other two severely wounded and out of combat, even if he cured them, their side was still doomed to defeat.

In this desperate situation, he could only take a gamble.

He hoped that, with the breakthrough signs he felt in his martial arts bottleneck, the Holy Spirit Pill would help him break through the sage arts barrier or raise his power level to the Great Crossing Phase. This might be their only chance at victory.

"Mister Wolf, as long as there's life, there's hope.ru try my best to hold off Wulfric. You must escape now and find a way to avenge US later."

Pierre, enduring his injuries and the poison, stood up with a determined look on his face.

He knew that their side was already facing acertain defeat.

They would all likely die at Wulfric's hands if things continued as they were.

Pierre was old, and dying for the Dragon Corps was an honorable end that he did not fear.

However, Leon could not die.

He was young, with his power level already reaching the Semi- Saint State, and had immense potential for future growth.

Pierre was determined to protect Leon at all costs, believing that if Leon could escape and eventually reach the Saint State, he might be able to kill Wulfric and avenge the Central Region Dragon Corps. At least that way he would be able to die without regrets.

"No, Pierre! Just help me hold off Wulfric and buy me some time,"

Leon said seriously.

Without wasting a moment, he closed his eyes and began channeling his energy to break through his martial arts bottleneck, absorbing and refining the Holy Spirit Pill within him, hoping to achieve a timely breakthrough in his sage arts power level.

"What?"

Pierre was taken aback.

Revenge is a dish best served cold.

Leon was already the Dragon Corps' only hope.

Only if Leon escaped would there be a chance to defeat Wulfric in the future and turn the tables for the Dragon Corps.

Thus, Pierre could not believe that Leon, for some unfathomable reason, refused to flee.

This caught him completely off guard.

"You think you can escape? It won't be that easy! Both of you will die!"

Wulfric sneered cruelly.

He swung both palms, sending two immensely powerful forces crashing toward Leon and Pierre.

"Damn it!"

Pierre's expression was grim.

Facing Wulfric's powerful attack, he had no choice but to give up urging Leon to escape.

He forced out two palm strikes to counter Wulfric's assault.Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org

Due to the Reaper's Breath weakening him, Pierre knew he could not match Wulfric head-on.

Thus, he used a technique to deflect part of Wulfric's force, barely managing to block the attack.

"Mister Wolf, you must escape now."

Pierre, relying on his deep Saint State power, struggled to suppress the Reaper's Breath poison within him.

He adopted a hit-and-run strategy, intermittently urging Leon to escape while trying to hold off Wulfric and buy Leon precious time.

Unfortunately, Leon remained seated, seemingly oblivious to Pierre's words.

This filled Pierre with despair and helplessness.

"Pierre, you should worry about yourself first. Prepare to die!"

Wulfric sneered.

Taking advantage of Pierre's distraction, Wulfric's figure flickered, and he suddenly appeared at Pierre's rear.

He immediately aimed for the

vulnerable spot on Pierre's back with a palm strike carrying an incredibly powerful force.

"Shit!"

Pierre was alarmed and realized it was too late to dodge.

He could only barely muster a counter-strike with one palm to block Wulfric's attack.

Bang! Pierre's attack clashed squarely with Wulfric's with a violent collision.

Following that, Wulfric's strike quickly broke through Pierre's true energy and defense with unstoppable force and the residual force slammed straight into Pierre's right chest and shoulder! Crack! The crisp sound of bone breaking echoed, as Pierre's right shoulder blade was shattered by Wulfric's attack.

His massive body was also blasted three or four yards away landing heavily on the ground! Cough! Cough! After landing, Pierre's entire body was wracked with excruciating pain. Read

He could not help but bend over and vomit several mouthfuls of blood, his face pale as he collapsed to the ground.

It was clear he suffered severe injuries and completely lost his ability to fight.
