Lucian was in the guest room on the second floor. The service staff brought Jonathan over to the guest room and said, “Mr. Yandell is inside.” Jonathan replied, “Thanks!” “You're welcome,” replied the staff with a smile before he turned around and left.
Jonathan did not rush to enter the guest room but started focusing his senses first. Immediately, he felt an unyielding rage coming from the room. That vengeful energy was obviously coming from Lucian.
Jonathan sighed faintly. | guess things aren't going to end well today. Of course, at his level of cultivation, Jonathan was not afraid of Lucian. He pushed the door open and entered the guest room without hesitation.
The lights in the guestroom were off, and it was dead silent.
Moonlight shone into the room as soon as the door was opened.
The first thing that Jonathan saw right away was Lucian
sitting crossed-legged on the bed.
However, at this moment, Lucian looked completely different from the Lucian of the past. He used to be a handsome young man who looked as if he had walked straight out of a painting.
But now, one of his eyes was missing, leaving a gaping hole that was covered with scabs. His face was now ugly and permanently disfigured, and he was also unshaven.
The worst part, though, was his aura, which was filled with hostility.
Jonathan finally believed what Mabel said. Lucian truly has gone insane.
Lucian was famous ever since he was young and had grown up with a smooth-sailing life. Thus, it was definitely difficult for him to accept the major setbacks he was now encountering.
He was like high school students who received good grades in school at first but ended up receiving bad results in their university entrance exams and gave up on
themselves.
Lucian opened his eye and immediately saw Jonathan. His eye filled with hatred at once. At the same time, a murderous aura radiated from him in Jonathan's direction.
Jonathan furrowed his brows and smiled bitterly. “Lucian, I've come here to resolve the grievances between us. After all, we were just fighting in the arena. It wasn't personal, right?” Hearing his own words, even Jonathan felt he was spouting nonsense. However, he vowed to do what he said he would. There was no turning back.
As expected, Lucian scoffed. “Resolve the grievances between us? And how would you do that? Are you going to give me a new eye or compensate me with one of yours?” He paused for a moment before continuing, “Lawson, | can't believe you would come to me today. | believe you already know who my grandfather is. If you want to beg for mercy now, you can go right ahead. Just kneel and knock your head against the floor thrice. Then, gouge out both of your eyes. Only then will | spare you.”
“You're all talk and no action.” Jonathan could not help it anymore, speaking in a direct and impolite manner.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtLucian was stunned for a moment before he erupted in anger. “How dare you insult me!” Jonathan sighed and responded, “Lucian, it was just a small conflict between you and |. It really wasn't anything serious. In the arena, you kept saying that you wanted to kill me. But when you reached the Nascent Soul level, did | ever sneak an attack on you? We were in the ring at the time. | could have killed you and claimed all the glory, but | didn't, and I'm not boasting about how great | was when by bringing this up. But you? You immediately wanted to kill me. Did you really think | wouldn't defend myself when you tried to do that? In the end, I'd blinded you in one eye, but was it really my fault, though? | came here today thinking that | would spare you. However, you're still ignorant and arrogant. Since this is your attitude, how do you expect me to allow you to live?” Lucian stood up suddenly. He seemed to have come to a
realization. “Have you come here to kill me?” Jonathan sighed mildly. “You've left me with no other choice.” Lucian scoffed. “Aren't you afraid of my grandpa?” Jonathan replied, “Your grandfather, Peacock King, is a master in the martial arts world. | do respect and venerate him for that. So what if | am afraid of him, though? If | let you go because I'm afraid of him, would you spare my life? I might as well get rid of you first instead of waiting for you and your grandfather to come and settle the score with me together later!” Lucian let out a demented laugh. “To think that a piece of trash like you could make such a blatant threat against me! Do you really think that you could Kill me all by yourself?” Jonathan did not want to waste any more of his breath.
“Come at me, then!” With that, he rushed forward using his Antelope Rhythm skill, and in the blink of an eye, he released his Great Sage Force Field.
The technique was so powerful that it could practically split the earth in half, and this incredible power was at this moment being directed at Lucian.
Then Jonathan launched his Great Sage Seal at Lucian.
Lucian turned pale in an instant. He had never thought that Jonathan had grown so powerful. If this was happening in the past when he still had both of his eyes, he might still have been able to hold his own against Jonathan. Back then, he was basically invincible because of his Nascent Soul cultivation. However, Lucian was now blind in one eye.
Not only did that upset him, his own force field was also considerably weaker.
Therefore, Lucian was finding it very challenging to defend himself against Jonathan's Great Sage Seal.
The force of the Great Sage Seal was enough to shatter the entire planet.
However, behind Lucian was the bed, and there was no retreat. In a desperate move, he dashed to his left and crouched down, escaping from under Jonathan's arm.
Just then, Jonathan moved his feet, and what followed next was the Shadow Step technique.
It was a technique that both he and Leonardo learned and was very useful.
Combining it with his Antelope Rhythm, Jonathan had comprehended Shadow Step's essence on a deep level.
Jonathan's greatest strength was his ability to learn new techniques.
Regardless of whether it was the Mongrel Attack, Satin Palm, or Strike Back, it had taken him only one day to practice and master the technique.
Jonathan had also managed to pick up Hector's skill that was unique to cultivators at the Unification level just by observation.
Of course, it was also all thanks to the fact that he already knew the Shadow Punch technique as well.
Just as Lucian was evading Jonathan's attack, Jonathan appeared in front of Lucian and blocked the latter's path
using Shadow Step. Then, using Mongrel Attack, he swung a kick at Lucian.
Lucian's face turned pale in horror as he quickly retreated.
However, just as he took one step back, Jonathan dashed forward and activated his Great Sage Seal.
Lucian shrieked in horror. He could do nothing other than to raise his hands helplessly and brace himself for the attack.
Boom! As the attack struck Lucian's palms, he could feel Jonathan's vitality as a spiritual fighter rushing at him in torrents. It was powered by an unbreakable will and instantly crushed the strength within Lucian's palms.
Lucian immediately scuffled backward. His vitality was decreasing, and blood was gushing out from his orifices.
Jonathan quickly rushed forward, his Dragon Claw immediately grabbing Lucian by the throat.
“No!” A look of despair flashed in Lucian's eyes as he screamed miserably.
At this moment, he was truly fearing for his life.
Jonathan's actions jerked to a halt as well.
| really am not a bloodthirsty murderer. Should | really kill him? Lucian wailed in agony, his face smeared with tears and snot. “I was wrong, Jonathan! Please spare me! | promise I'll never cross you again!” Jonathan sighed softly. He closed his eyes as he suddenly began to gather Force in his hands.
Crack! Jonathan broke Lucian's neck.
And just like that, Lucian's head rolled to the side, and he died on the spot.
The Little Martial Sage, Lucian Yandell, was dead.
With that, Jonathan turned around and walked away without looking back.
There was a brief moment when he had hesitated to kill
Lucian. However, Jonathan then remembered what kind of person Lucian really was. He had spared Lucian's life once out of kindness, but Lucian immediately set out to kill him in the next second.
Jonathan simply could not afford to give Lucian another chance.
If he did, then Lucian would definitely hurt Jonathan's loved ones and family members. Jonathan would never forgive himself if that were to happen.
For their safety, | don't care if | had to bear the burden of this sin.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAtter killing Lucian, Jonathan proceeded to exit the resort.
‘When Mabel and Polly saw Jonathan emerging from the entrance, they sighed in relief.
Mabel said, “You didn't spare him, did you? People like Lucian are very arrogant when they have power. Once they're on the verge of death, though, they're more afraid of dying than any ordinary person out there. You shouldn't spare him even if he begged for mercy.”
Jonathan glanced at Mabel, impressed by how wise the latter was. Indeed, Mabel saw everything clearly.
“He's dead now,” said Jonathan. After a brief pause, he continued, “However, it'll be a problem finding a place to hide his body.” Mabel stated, “You don't have to worry about that. | can get ‘some guys to take care of that. Let's go now. The military aircraft has arrived.” “All right!” Jonathan readily accepted her suggestion.
However, just as he and Mabel prepared to get in the car, Polly suddenly said, “Jonathan, Ms. Sandler. This is where we part ways for now. We shall meet again in the future.” Jonathan was slightly stunned upon hearing that. A part of him did not want Polly to leave. However, since she had made up her mind, he could only respect her decision.
After all, Jonathan was a carefree person as well. Thus, he said, “Goodbye! Stay safe out there!” Nodding firmly, Polly responded, “I will. You take care as
welll” Mabel waved her hand. “Goodbye!” After that, Polly turned around and left without hesitation.
She looked incredibly cool as she walked away.
“Ms. McDaniels is an amazing woman,” Mabel stated.
“Jonathan, you're really lucky to have known her. She'll definitely come to your aid when you need it. What goes around comes around, after all.” Jonathan understood that Mabel was talking about how he had helped Polly break through the Nascent Soul level.
However, he responded with a hint of melancholy, “I've sinned enough for today, killing Leonardo and then Lucian.
I'll face retribution soon enough.” Mabel smiled. “You're the Chosen One. You were never destined to live happily ever after. Just go with the flow.
Come on! Let's get in the car already! Once they got into the car, Mabel started the engine.
Jonathan could not help but say, “Mabel, you should have
told me that Leonardo had a crazy aunt! You know how powerful the Holy Bounds Sect is. Why didn't you tell me that earlier? Maybe | wouldn't have killed Leonardo if I'd known that and wouldn't be having all this trouble now.” Mabel replied seriously, “First of all, you would have felt ‘even more burdened if | told you. There was no telling if you could have won against Leonardo or not. Secondly, Leonardo would have kept seeking revenge even if you didn't get rid of him. He would have told Bianca to kill you, and you wouldn't have stood a chance against her. | still think it was the right move for you to end him once and for all. Thirdly, | really hope that you've come to accept that what's destined to happen will always happen eventually.
I'm just here to set things in motion. Now, we should be on the same page, aren't we?” Mabel smirked.
“Well, okay!” Jonathan gave her a thumbs-up as he said that.
The mother of all storms is coming, and I'm caught in the middle of it all. | never wanted to involve myself, and yet | was drawn into it one step at a time. My fate is
predetermined by the mysterious Heavenly Law.
