Through the high-tech modified camera sitting on top of the highest tower in the small town, they could see the pictures captured from ten kilometers away clearly on the screen.
Young Gao Peng was spotted too, together with a few Familiars alongside him.
An older apostle in red and another in blue were quite amazed at how young Gao Peng was. While a younger apostle dressed in gold and another in silver beside them were quite envious of Gao Peng’s handsomeness.
“But I’m even more curious about why this fellow is seeking for his death by provoking us with Golden Hands. What has he got against us?”
As an apostle with Golden Hands, Mazato had a clear understanding of his own Golden Hands. In other words, he knew his own limits. He probably had once offended someone during an operation.
“Found it. He is called Gao Peng, originated from Huaxia Region, leader of the Undead Catastrophe, and at the same time, the president of Southern Sky Group.
“So it’s him!”
A few of the apostles have heard of Gao Peng, but they have never seen him in person before. When they heard the name Gao Peng and the Undead Catastrophe and also the Southern Sky Group, they understood all of it instantly. They have come across Gao Peng’s profile before, it was just that they have never met him in person.
Their hatred from the past and present accumulated together. They have tried assassinating Gao Peng, but Gao Peng had sabotaged their actions.
There was not much to say. He was no doubt the enemy.
“This little one has great potential. We couldn’t handle him back in Huaxia Region, but he has a lot of nerve to actually show up at our doorstep.”
“Which Familiar do you think he will die in the hands of? Is it red apostle’s Saprophytic Earth Dragon or silver apostle’s Silver Mirage Butterfly?” the apostle in gold said with ease and contentment.
To him, Gao Peng was already a meat on a chopping board. It was just the matter of waiting for his time to come.
Two Lord Tier Monsters attacking him at the same time, how would this little one escape?
“Do not say too soon, this matter has yet to be confirmed. Who knows, the little one just might get away.” The apostle in red looked quite calm, in fact, a smile was forming on his lips.
“Haha, the few famous Familiars of his are not with him, especially that uncanny duck. He only has that one-legged crane, which brings little treat.” The apostle in gold laughed.
“But with the help of silver apostle’s Silver Mirage Butterfly, it could completely captivate that one-legged crane.”
With all the staring and talking, it looked as if the battle had a foregone conclusion.
As he lifted his head and was greeted by two charging Familiars, Gao Peng’s first reaction was to wonder how on earth did two Familiars sneaked their way over here, and they only exposed themselves when they were 50 meters away from him.
The silver-winged butterfly on the left had wings as long as three meters. It looked extremely beautiful, as if pure silver was poured onto its wings, coating its surface.
On the right was a long lizard-like monster with wings. There was a strong overwhelming stench coming from it, and its thick dark purple tongue was swirling wildly inside its wide opened mouth as its body was covered with coarse skin.

So it was the mirage that obscured our perception, even Flamy and the others did not see this coming... its illusion ability is quite strong.
The White Steel Bladed Beast that has been lying beside Gao Peng’s feet finally moved...
As it straightened its body, two white silvery weapons popped up from its limbs.
Then a green light flashed, and it disappeared into thin air.
Storm Cross Kill!
The wind whistled as it showcased an extremely long afterimage of two silvery white lines through the body of the silver-winged butterfly.
The face of the apostle dressed in silver in the house turned pale, it was as if he was about to spurt a mouthful of blood. A splitting headache hit him, and he almost passed out.
“Huh, what’s wrong?” the room was chaotic, the apostle in silver’s strange behaviour was making them suspicious of whether or not there were any monsters that sneaked into the room.
“God!” exclaimed the technician in charge of modulating the lens, attracting the attention of the three apostles.
“All the shouting and yelling, what is this... Ugh.”
The apostle in gold at the back had nothing more to say.
On the screen, the two silvery white lines that formed a cross lingered in the air on the searing hot ocean of sand, the Silver-Winged Mirage Butterfly that was originally flying in the air was torn to pieces!
Green blood rained down from the skies as pieces of silver wings followed behind.
Behind it, a silver wide-eyed monster with outstretched wings slowly fell from the sky, its arms crossed in front it. Its movement was soft and gentle, the complete opposite of the strong formation it had a moment ago.
Executed!
The Silver-Winged Mirage Butterfly of the apostle dressed in silver had actually been executed!
It was a Lord Tier Familiar, not some random amateur picked up from the streets. But even a Lord Tier Familiar could be executed. They didn’t dare to think about other possibilities.
Everyone was staring at the screen, dumfounded and bewildered, as a surge of feelings rushed through them.
Among the three apostles, the one in red was the first one to snap out of it, his complexion changed. The Silver-Winged Mirage Butterfly has been executed, his own Familiar...
“It’s dangerous! Quickly return, Earth Dragon.” The apostle in red warned his dragon through Blood Contract.
The moment it saw its partner being executed, the dragon felt a chill ran down its tail.
There was no need for a reminder from its master, it immediately turned and ran.
Down below, the Desolate Frost Lion that was napping on Gao Peng’s shoulder opened its eyes, the cold air in the atmosphere condensed.
The Desolate Frost Lion muttered, “I really hate these kinds of environments like in deserts, the ice in the atmosphere is just too thin.”
As the lion spoke, the air surrounding the Saprophytic Earth Dragon started to condense, forming an ice cage. The dragon that was retreating rammed into the ice cage, knocking off big chunks of icicles, but the icicles quickly reformed to form new ones.
There were sounds of cracking and shuffling as the dragon in the air was caught in the cage made of crisscrossing icicles in the end. With a thud, the ice cage fell onto the sand dune and rolled over several times.
“Flamy, fly up to the sky and keep an eye on it, don’t let it get away.” Gao Peng ordered flatly.
