With Jerry's increased exertion of strength, he forced the sharp sword made of brass to curve instantly.
Even so, the sharp sword still couldn't penetrate Fade's palm!
"How is this possible?" Jerry and the others were shocked.
Fade narrowed his eyes. He shook his palm slightly and said in a cold voice, "It's my turn now."
With a loud snap, Jerry felt a surge of force rushing toward him. The thin sword in his hand made a sound before it shattered into pieces, followed by a clang of metal as it fell to the ground.
Jerry's deadly move, the skill of the Nine Blossom Sword, was caught by Fade barehanded and was forcefully crushed. Everyone gawked in shock and disbelief.
"How could this be..." Jerry muttered to himself. He was still in disbelief at what had transpired in front of him.
But at this time, Fade had already moved. The palms he had used to crush the thin sword shifted its target toward Jerry.
The palm strike that seemed unimpressive actually had an underlying force. Blood drained out of Laurant's face as he noticed the concealed power. He shouted in panic, "Get back, Jerry!".
By the time he heard his master's voice, it was too late for Jerry to dodge. Fade's attack had already reached him.
With a loud snap, Fade's palm slammed into Jerry's abdomen.
At this instance, there was a faint sound of a crack. Jerry spat blood and his face turned pale as his whole body flew backward.
Laurant rushed forward and caught Jerry. Then, he quickly transferred his positive energy through Jerry's chest to heal him.
However, soon, Laurant's face darkened as he looked at Fade with resentment. He gnashed his teeth and said, "You've destroyed my disciple's cultivation in martial arts."
Fade said blandly, "I'm already being merciful for not taking his life."
"How dare you, you maniac?! How dare you do this to the members of White Jade Palace?!" Laurant shouted angrily. He stepped out and looked at Fade with murderous intent in his eyes.
At this time, everyone witnessed the scene bore different expressions. They were in utter shock.
Many people were surprised that Fade really made a move on Jerry, and even defeated Jerry.
However, when they thought about Fade's attack against Joseph moments ago, it also surpassed their expectations.
Now, Laurant was ready to retaliate. The fight had gone past the point of no return.
After all, although Joseph and Jerry's strength was superior, they were merely martial artists of a younger generation. Laurant, who had made a name for himself for a long time now, was in a different league compared to these youngsters.
If Laurant made his attack, Fade could be in real danger.
For a time, some people couldn't help worrying about Fade.
However, many people were gloating, as if they were waiting to see Fade being defeated by Laurant, even to the extent of death.
At this time, Laurant stepped to the center of the square and looked at Fade coldly. With a condescending expression, he said in a low voice, "Do you want me to kill you, or would you take your own life instead?"
Fade shook his head and said lightly, "I choose neither."
Laurant narrowed his eyes slightly and said in a cold voice, "Then, I'll make you wish you were dead."
Fade didn't even flinch as he taunted, "Go ahead."
"What an arrogant b*stard! You're courting death!" Laurant bellowed. A surge of vigorous energy exploded from his body. His white robes fluttered despite a lack of breeze as his entire body started to tremble.
Straight after, a strong and imposing surge of energy shot toward Fade.
For a moment, the people present could not help but feel a terrible momentum, as if their whole body was suppressed by an invisible strength.
