“Where’s Master Brock? What just happened? He was here a moment ago.”
“Weird, he vanished in the blink of an eye.”
“Could he have tunneled underground? Does Master Brock have some mystical tricks up his sleeve?”
The crowd looked around, engrossed in their discussions, completely oblivious to the gravity of the situation.
They found it perplexing-Brock, who had been commanding respect just moments ago, had suddenly disappeared.
“Where’s our leader? Where did he go?”
“Master! Master!” Disciples and elders of Nexus Gate shouted, trying to find their master, but their calls went unanswered. Only a few individuals from various sects understood the grim reality.
“No need to shout. Your master is already dead,” Silver Sage said with a heavy tone. While others were in the dark, being a grandmaster martial artist, he saw it clearly. After the clash of fists, Master Brock’s body exploded like an inflated balloon, leaving no trace behind.
“Dead? How is that possible?”
“Master Elias, don’t talk nonsense! Our master is invincible, undefeated in the world. How could he die?”
The disciples of Nexus Gate vehemently disbelieved. In their eyes, Brock was an invulnerable figure who could effortlessly triumph over anyone.
“Master Elias is right. Master Brock… He’s truly gone,” the woman spoke solemnly. “Whether you believe it or not, those bits of flesh on the ground are Master Brock’s remains.”
Her words caused an uproar. Nexus Gate disciples were struck dumb, refusing to accept the truth. Yet, with the confirmation from the leader of Stormfire Order and the Skyshadow Sect, they reluctantly acknowledged the reality.
Gazing at the fragments on the ground, Nexus Gate disciples lamented. Their sorrow turned into rage.
The Nexus Gate’s leader, Brock, was famous for the unparalleled mastery of the Nexus Dominator Fist. He could unleash a single punch capable of shattering the heavens and rending the earth. It was a force no one could withstand.
While a victory for Dustin using weaponry might have seemed reasonable, the fact that he obliterated the supposedly invincible Brock with his bare fists was nothing short of astonishing. The displayed strength was truly terrifying.
At that moment, the realization dawned on them-the once-renowned Kirin possessed an unparalleled might.
It now made sense why Anders had gathered experts from diverse sects. It wasn’t an overreaction but a justified response to a foe of such formidable prowess.
“What a disappointment!” Anders scoffed, feeling displeased. He thought Nexus Gate’s leader was formidable, yet he couldn’t even counter a single move from Dustin.
“Master Elias, fellow heroes, this villain is dangerous. You better give it your all and not hold back,” Anders warned.
Now, he could only rely on the experts from the Stormfire Order and the Skyshadow Sect to force Dustin to reveal his full strength. His Fang Legion couldn’t be sacrificed as cannon fodder.
“Master Elias, in the face of a formidable enemy, it seems we have no choice but to join forces,” the woman said with seriousness.
“Indeed, only by working together can we hope to defeat this foe.”
Silver Sage spoke gravely, “We’ll have the Stormfire Order’s main force attack, Nexus Gate disciples harass from the sidelines, and the Skyshadow Sect seize opportunities for covert strikes. Any objections?”
“All will follow Master Elias’s command,” the woman said.
“As long as it avenges our master, Nexus Gate is willing to face any danger!” Nexus Gate disciples voiced their unanimous support.
“Good! It’s settled, then! Everyone, heed my command-attack!”
Silver Sage waved, leading the aces from the Stormfire Order to charge toward Dustin.
“Attack!” Furious Nexus Gate disciples rushed forward, unwilling to fall behind. Under the woman’s guidance, disciples from the Skyshadow Sect strategically deployed hidden weapons, preparing for covert strikes from various directions.
