There were traces of blood at the corners of Austin’s lips as he hatefully spoke, eyes flaring as he did, "That's right! It doesn't matter if the others escape, but we can’t let this old one run away. Brother Fane, let's kill him together!”
Edward’s expression faltered at this.
He had always thought his combat power was much stronger than Austin, and he would have been able to kill Austin minutes later had Fane and the rest not come. The Bloodshed Clan would have won.
The combat power Fane showed was comparable to those in the First-grade soulpenetrating level. Fane alone had brought him enough trouble, what more with both of them attacking him together.
Thinking of what could happen, Edward began to beg Austin, "Austin, you have to think this through. Didn't you say that continuing this battle would result in big losses for both of us? Why don’t we just forget about what happened here today and return to our respective homes?"
Austin, however, laughed. "Haha! And how did you respond to me when I pleaded to stop the battle, Edward Gray? You turned me down, so why should we agree to your request now that I have the upper hand?"
Austin then tightened his fists, his energy surging through them as he did.
Fane squatted down slightly, his own aura enveloping his fists as he was about to execute the Twin Dragons Fist skill once more.
"Don't... Don’t do it! Let's discuss this nicely!" Edward paled in fright when he realized that these two were seriously about to attack him.
Unfortunately, Fane and Austin ignored him, unleashing their respective moves.
Resignedly, Edward could only bite the bullet and execute his own.
Thoom!
The attack of these three masters crashed against one another. How could Edward have survived from Fane and Austin's united attack? Edward perished that instant.
"Clan master!" cried out several Bloodshed Clan elders. Hatred filled their hearts at the sight of their clan master being killed.
"Run! Everybody, run!" Many of the Bloodshed Clan members fought with their lives as they wanted to escape, seeing as their clan master. First Elder, Second Elder, and Fourth Elder had died. They were no longer able to defeat their opponents.
The Bloodshed Clan originally had several tens of thousand people, but only 30,000 of them remained in the end.
Just as the Nine Armies relished in ending their enemies, a fortress master spotted something from afar and yelled to Austin," This is bad! Look over there, First Fortress Master! A group of people is coming from that side!"
Austin and the rest savored their conquest, moments away from wiping out the
Bloodshed Clan when they saw a group of people flying their way.
