Chapter 1461 Foolishness
"...!"
Fiora instantly waved her hand as she dispersed the deadly wind blades she sent. They almost reached, about to gravely injure before they faded right in front of Lester Dawnton's frozen expression.
She blinked, actually didn't think that this old man had the guts to surrender as it would be humiliating. However, realizing that their lifespan was almost going to end, she was convinced of this surrender.
While Davis and the others nodded at Fiora's prowess and speed at conjuring wind blades and throwing at her enemies, Natalya's eyes flickered with curiosity.
Wasn't the Sky Splitting Wind Blade a mere High-Level Earth Grade Technique in the Astoria Family? Why did it look so ginormous and abnormal in Fiora's hands?
She just didn't know that Fiora had received a sudden inspiration while practicing this technique; luckily and accidentally vastly improving the technique by regulating the essence energy traveled inside the veins while also managing to figure out how much essence energy she should inject in each meridian points before making it burst out to garner a ridiculous amount of instantaneous power that lasted for a few seconds until it disappeared, unlike the original technique that had a wide range, making it a Sky Grade Battle Technique long ago!
Its severing prowess alone could reach the Peak-Level Sky Grade if her power equally matched it, and that was why it was so marvelous enough to sever her opponent's giant Grand Law Manifestation. It was just that Fiora was unaware of that herself, using it as her greatest technique whenever she found herself at a pinch.
That's right. She didn't hold back her punches once she knew that her opponent had released his Law Manifestation. She had yet to manifest one since she didn't reach the Law Manifestation Stage. However, she was close.
"Old man, my Wind Laws are also at Level Three Intent, except I'm going to break through and enter the Law Manifestation Stage, manifesting a Superior Law Manifestation as I will comprehend Level Four Intent. This battle has given me a few insights into the Wind Laws, and maybe that might help me improve my comprehension a teeny weeny bit..."
Fiora giggled, mocking the old man as his expression became hazardous before he harrumphed, looking at the two behind him.
Nilus Redsword stepped forwards, his hand reaching out to his red-colored sword strapped behind his back. He drew his sword and pointed it at Fiora.
"I presume my speed isn't any less than yours, but still, care to teach me some pointers, young lady?"
"Next?" Fiora's beautiful eyes blinked, "Am I supposed to battle two Law Manifestation Stage Cultivators when I am at a level lower, at the Law Seed Stage? You're kidding..."
Nilus Redsword narrowed his sharp brows. He didn't think that this woman would be cautious, not being drunk in her victory.
"That's a sword at Peak-Level Sky Grade?" Davis suddenly spoke, "Such a find in this place, you must be one lucky fellow..."
"Haha." Nilus Redsword looked embarrassed, "Crown Prince Davis, everyone says I'm a lucky person."
"Is that so?" Davis smiled, "Then I'm pretty sure that you would fare luckily in front of this sword as well."
Davis waved his hand, and a sword abruptly appeared out of nowhere, piercing towards Fiora. It stopped in front of her before everyone take a look at the sword, its azure luster becoming visible once Fiora reached out her hand to take the sword.
"A King Grade Sword...?"
Nilus Redsword's lips trembled while his eyes went bloodshot in greed.
It was a random sword lying in his spatial ring, one that he might probably never use in his life, remaining unnamed and without an armament spirit, but held by Fiora whose wind energy greatly supplemented the sword as it vibrated with an azure sheen, it struck a chord in their hearts, invoking fear.
Fiora grinned as she focused her gaze on the sword before shooting a gaze towards them.
*Whoosh!~*
Her figure flashed as she shot towards Nilus Redsword, catching him off-guard.
"Wait!!!-"
The sword that was on his hand was instantly used to defend against as he changed his posture, but Fiora, who shot towards him with all her momentum, grabbed the hilt of the heavy sword with both her hands as she swung it down.
*Crack!~*
The Peak-Level Sky Grade Sword he had used to try, and parry was ruthlessly cut down by her wind control which basically sealed his movements abruptly. His sword split into two while it grazed his shoulder, making blood spurt out like a fountain before he hurriedly tried to patch up with his energy as he backpedaled while staggering.
"Wait...! This isn't fair...! No! I surrender!"
Fiora, who placed a dainty step in mid-air and continued to pursue her opponent, stopped after hearing the word surrender. Her body that was about to leap like an eagle stood straight as she held the sword with both her hands like a ruler as she spoke.
"If this was a three-round battle format, I won two, so you all lose."
Nilus Redsword looked like he was going to cry as his expression trembled, seething with wrath once all the humiliation got to him. His body trembled, but he suppressed it as the quivering came to an end, replaced with solemness.
"Do it.."
*Vrmmm!~*
Multicolored lights erupted as a triangular transparent barrier abruptly appeared from the surface, reaching out Fiora's height as it trapped her inside in an instant before she could even react.
Davis and Isabella's eyes narrowed, instantly recognizing its undulations radiating the might of a killing formation!
A Peak-Level Sky Grade Killing Formation!
"What is the meaning of this?" His voice coldly echoed.
"Ahahahahah!"
Lester Dawnton held his stomach and laughed, his expression appearing extremely mocking.
"Crown Prince Davis?"
"Pffft! More like little prince Davis..! You still are not clear about the world and how it molds people like us. Nevertheless, learn from us. Here is what I say. We are willing to disband, but you must give us ten million spirit stones instead of a million. Furthermore, ninety percent of these ten million spirit stones should be in the form of Spirit Stone Vein Fragments or the higher-tiered spirit stones I keep hearing about that would help Law Manifestation Stage Powerhouses."
"Finally, you should swear to the heavens that you will never hurt us and not allow the two Empires, the Loret Empire and the Ruth Empire, to even lay a hand on us. Ah, right, you should also not let your master harm us or even talk about this situation as I presume that your master would be extremely busy. If you follow these conditions, then we will release your Fiora... Otherwise, don't say that I didn't warn you all...! Ahahahah!"
Lester Dawnton seemed to be having the time of his life as he burst out laughing crazily while the others behind him smiled while possessing mocking expressions and gazes.
Who would come with a bevy of beauties to take them on? It's like saying, please capture my beauties so that I can give you all my wealth to have them released in exchange.
This brat was a hundred years earlier to make them submit! Or so were their thoughts.
"Foolishness..."
Davis's sapphire eyes turned deathly cold after hearing that retarded speech.
When he wanted to be nice, some people always end up disappointing him. This could've just ended with them peacefully leaving after losing, but they just had to court death!
He had no chill anymore as his soul force had already surrounded them, ready to crush them to death without them even knowing they were right under his grasp. He wasn't worried about Fiora either, because...
"Zephya~"
Fiora suddenly spoke when a breeze suddenly erupted within the killing formation she was trapped in.
*Crack!~*
It was just an instant.
The apparent yet unnamed Peak-Level Sky Grade Killing Formation broke just like that as a hazy humanoid shot out with both her hands placed on her big bosoms in a crossed manner, looking charming and deadly as her blue-green eyes flashed.
"Did Master require my assistance?"
"Kill all these vermins for me!~"
Fiora's eyes ruthlessly flashed amidst the fading triangular formation while Zephya sighed as she turned to look around.
"Since you all offended my Master, then there's no need for you all to live!"
The entire Guardian Alliance was both charmed and horrified by the talking Wind Elemental. They had only begun to turn back when a sudden breeze emerged as it shook their hairs.
There was an inaudible piercing sound that echoed, and when they turned to look at why, they found themselves splitting in half as their eyes turned wide in horror.
"Nooo!!!~~~"
"Wait!!!-"
Lester Dawnton screamed in fear as his tempered body split in half from the waist, splashing blood like crazy while innards also fell! Nilus Redsword was also similar, but his head had been split in half. He was the very first victim because he had been the closest.
Blood splattered everywhere, and screams of fear echoed, resounding throughout the mountains and valleys. Their tempered Gold Stage bodies were like vegetables being continuously torn apart by sharp and deadly wind blades from Zephya.
Fiora watched the massacre with cold eyes. She hated people like these who couldn't stay true to their words, and these people were supposed to be guardians who protected this Grand Sea Continent from the outsiders, but they acted like despicable villains.
'What a farce...'
She thought as she clenched her fists in anger, wanting to end their lives with her own hands. Originally, she had just wanted to put them in their place for being rude to her beloved. He possessed such power and could easily oust them but went out of his way to strike a deal to them for her so that she could train.
How could she not be angered?
Their death throes and pleading were still resounding, but she chose to ignore it as she used the wind to seal her ears, not because she was afraid to kill but because she was afraid that she might stop out of the goodness in her heart.
Zephya's mighty wind that was ranked ninth in the King Grade Wind Elemental Rankings, was also the reason why Fiora had maintained an edge over them. The quality of Wind Laws she comprehended was clearly greater than these old men who produced Grand Law Manifestations with their respective law comprehensions. It was evident that their Grand Law Manifestations were the lowest of the low, probably wouldn't even compare to the youths who have comprehended Grand Law Manifestations in the Fifty-Two Territories.
The Sultry Cloudburst Tempest Wisp wreaked havoc, splitting the members of the Guardian Alliance into two before proceeding to behead them. None of them had a Mature Soul Stage Cultivation, so it was unlikely they could survive without their bodies for a longer period of time.
*Splat!~*
However, they all suddenly exploded as if a unique power had crushed them to death. A scarlet rain composed of their filthy blood fell on the headquarters of the Guardian Alliance as about thirty-two people fell at this place.
Everyone present, which was naturally Davis's women since no alliance member present in this headquarters survived, turned to look at him as they saw him stretching his hand out and perceived that it wasn't martial energy but soul force that did the killing blow!
