Chapter 175 Spare None!
Chapter 175 Spare None!
Just as Ikasa cursed and got ready to deal with his opponents, he heard a thud. One of the people encircling him fell to the ground and his energy was slowly dissipating.
Near him, Ikasa saw a small dark blue spot near him and he smiled in relief.
Ikasa had anticipated friction in case someone decided to eye the ore he purchased from the losers of the Auction. So, he had asked Feng Yan and Xin Ruo to be on standby and provide him back up when he called for them.
And finally, they were here!
Feng Yan and Xin Ruo immediately faced resistance from the remaining two Sense Trainers on their way to help Ikasa. Feng Yan responded to their resistance by wildly swinging his Halberd.
In this place where you could only see outlines, there was no weapon as deadly as a halberd. It not only had a sharp edge, but it also had the momentum to imbalance the opponent.
Parrying the halberd was a pipedream and Feng Yan's opponent soon discovered this fact the hard way. The halberd's blade completely bypassed the longsword in his opponent's hands and chopped away the arms holding it.
Feng Yan swung his Bloody Eye once again and chopped his defenseless opponent in two halves. He quickly went to help weaponless Xin Ruo take care of her opponent.
Ikasa breathed a sigh of relief after seeing Feng Yan win an upper hand and focused on the opponents in front of him.
By now, the people left alive from Mu Shi's group had completely lost their courage. Even Ikasa's opponents were shaking in their boots despite having the odds on their side.
Su Zhi and the people from the Su Family were gradually shrinking back, preparing to escape. The arrival of Feng Yan and Xin Ruo made them realize the futility of their efforts.
The Saber user and Wooden Staff wielder both backed away a few steps. Ikasa could see their energy signatures fluctuating, indicating their fear and anxiety.
Ikasa took out the ax and kept his Serrated Sun Disc back in his Storage Space. He charged at the two Sense Trainers who were ganging up on him and chopped with his ax at the Saber Wielder.
The Staff user tried to defend his partner by poking his staff at Ikasa but he simply sidestepped and avoided the obstacle.
As soon as Ikasa reached the Saber User, he vertically chopped at the Saber User. His opponent anticipated the attack and raised his saber horizontally to parry Ikasa's strike.
Clang! The sound of metal blades colliding sounded. Yet, surprisingly the Saber User's energy signature became fainter and fainter until it completely disappeared.
His partner was going mad with anxiety.
"Why? How - How did he die?"
He asked, unable to come to terms with his partner's mysterious death. He looked at Ikasa with even more dread and fear and his rapidly fluctuating Energy outline let Ikasa know of his condition.
Ikasa turned his attention to him and smirked. Though no one could see it, his pure white outline had become ominous in the eyes of the spectators.
He charged at the Staff wielder who had made use of his comrade's death to create some distance between him and the mysterious devil named Ikasa.
"P- Please, let me go! I am willing to compensate you with all I have."
The Staff Wielder begged when he came to realize that he was the only one left alive of the bunch. The Su Family that had incited their leader had already shrunk back and were ready to flee.
Ikasa looked at him and the reddish figure of the Su Family in the distance.
He reached the proximity of the Sense Trainer in an instant. With a deft move, he switched his ax for the Serrated Sun Disc and tore the stomach of the Sense Trainer open. As he dug his weapon deeper, he whispered,
"I will spare no one today."
His loud whisper was carried to the ears of every Sense Trainer present at the scene. Su Zhi and her family members shivered with fear.
"What are you waiting for? Let's escape this place!"
Su Zhi reminded her brother and other family members. As soon as they turned around, they saw two figures blocking their path. One gleaming with radiant blue energy and the other with a dull shade of yellow.
"I said, no one will be spared!"
Ikasa spoke, arriving behind them. He was annoyed by this pair of couples who had made him a target. He detested killing and yet these people before him were the reason he had bloodied his hands multiple times today.
How could he let them go scot-free?
Su Yang came out and tried to reason with Ikasa with his glib tongue.
"Brother Ikasa, isn't one more friend better than one more enemy? I will have my sister apologize 'properly' to you. Let bygones be bygone, okay?"
Ikasa was not a kid who would not understand the innuendo in his words. He laughed loudly at Su Yang's words.
"I have never seen a brother pimp out his own sister. Why would I care for such a friend?"
The Su Family was known for their dual cultivation techniques but Ikasa was under the impression that they only had one partner. He respected it. However, that impression was also shattered today.
Having been exposed publicly, Su Yang's reddish energy flared. He was embarrassed and angered by Ikasa's crude and blunt words.
"Can you bear the combined wrath of the Su Family and the Mu family? We may not be as powerful as the Mu Family but just a single Path Finder from our family is enough to crush you and your third-rate organization!"
Su Yang threatened as he was one of the few who knew about the Golden Heart Business Group.
Ikasa knew this fact as well. Did he care? No.
After offending the Mu family, why would he care about a measly Su Family from a tier 2 city far away from his base of operations?
"Hahaha!" Ikasa laughed hysterically at his threat. Then suddenly he stopped and his voice turned cold as he ordered Feng Yan and Xin Ruo, "Kill them all. Spare None."
