Ezekiel continued, "My father has already sent my uncle back from the strange relic for the Ice Soul Pearl. He should arrive soon."
"Tiernan!" His name quickly appeared in Devin's mind.
"He is Ezekiel's father, Amman's younger brother. He is Ezekiel's second uncle. His strength is extraordinary. He has reached the third level of the Fetus Refine Realm, second only to Amman. He is the second-best expert in the Loh family.”
"Once Tiernan comes back, I am definitely no match for him."
Devin stopped walking forward when he thought of that. He lowered his head and thought deeply, appearing quite hesitant.
At that moment, Fade, who was hiding in the Ice Soul Pearl, injected his soul energy in a frenzy. That made the Ice Soul Pearl speed up suddenly and run along the channel.
It was because Fade knew that once Devin began to hesitate, it was virtually impossible for his provocation to be successful.
It was impossible for Devin to actually attack Ezekiel.
Therefore, he had to leave in a hurry when Devin was hesitating.
Sensing Fade's movement, Devin no longer hesitated. His face darkened and he chased after Fade.
Even though Ezekiel had injuries on his body, he also followed, maintaining a certain distance from Devin.
Although Fade activated the Ice Soul Pearl with all his strength, his speed was very fast.
However, since Devin was an Fetus Refine Realm expert, he was still continuously narrowing the distance between him and Fade.
Once he caught up, he could trap Fade in the Ice Soul Pearl.
As the distance between them closed, Devin was about to catch up with the Ice Soul Pearl. At that critical moment, a stream of Qi fell from the sky and rushed towards Devin with a large booming sound.
The force smashed through all the surrounding ice.
The energy surged from the stream of qi like waves.
Devin was obstructed by the explosion. Hence, he slowed down slightly.
"Who is it?"
Devin roared angrily. He was extremely exasperated.
However, two figures came out of the cloud of ice and snow and attacked Devin.
Upon a closer look, he found that they were none other than Talmon and Yarrow.
Devin was furious to see them. "Talmon and Yarrow, do you know what you are doing?"
Talmon's face wore no expression. He held a long sword in his hand as he spoke coldly, "I only know that the Gu family mustn't repay kindness with ingratitude."
"If you want to kill Fade, you will do that over my dead body."
Devin glared at Talmon furiously. "You're courting death.”
A long sword appeared in his hand. It was his Yuan Seal, the Meteor Sword.
"Get out of the way, or you'll die!"
Devin threatened him at last.
Talmon was unmoved. Instead, his eyes glowed with determination.
"Even if I die, I won't back down!"
"Then die!"
Devin was furious and shouted. The Meteor Sword flashed like lightning and launched toward Talmon.
Talmon raised his sword to parry the strike, but he was no match for Devin. With just one blow, his body was sent flying. Instantly, his body was covered in blood.
There was no need to discuss what happened to Yarrow. He was pushed away by the surging strength before he could even get close to Devin.
Devin couldn't be bothered whether he had killed Talmon or not. Instead, Devin continued to chase after Fade.
However, two more figures appeared and blocked Devin's way. They were Natalia and Evelyne.
"Get lost!"
Devin let out a furious roar.
Without another word, Natalia immediately took action. Dozens of talismans flew toward Devin, almost encasing him up.
However, the Meteor Sword in Devin's hand danced in the air, flashing and gleaming. It emitted countless rays of sword light that tore through Natalia's talismans.
Evelyne, who was hiding in a corner in preparation to launch a sneak attack, was discovered by Devin before she even got close to Devin. With a shake of his body, she was sent flying. She couldn't get close to him at all, let alone hurt him.
Just in a few moments, many bloody stains were already formed on Natalia and Evelyne's bodies. They looked very embarrassed.
Talmon, who had been sent flying, returned at some point. He was covered in blood, carrying a long sword that he used to hack at Devin.
This time, Devin really was angered.
His scarlet eyes were filled with killing intent as he looked at Talmon. With a slash of the Meteor Sword, a sharp deadly wave of sword Qi was sent toward Talmon.
Talmon tried to block it, but his sword Qi was directly cut off by the Meteor Sword. It rushed toward his chest.
Talmon had nowhere to hide; he was about to be struck.
At that crucial moment, Fade used the Ice Soul Pearl to release a wave of cold energy. It stopped Devin's sword Qi, barely allowing Talmon to avoid this fatal attack.
Because of that simple gesture, the distance Fade had worked so hard to put in between Devin and himself was quickly closed by Devin.
Seeing that, Natalia's eyes took on a sharp gaze. She grabbed her granddaughter, Evelyne, and threw her towards the Ice Soul Pearl. At the same time, she shouted at Fade, "Take Evelyne and go!"
"But Master!" Fade caught Evelyne and stored her bloody body in the Ice Soul Pearl.
Natalia roared, "What are you so sentimental for? Can you call yourself a man?"
