Malcolm had already disappeared. When Rudy saw that Malcolm had disappeared, he sat up abruptly, ¹ Where is he? Where is Malcolm?"
His loud cry had been heard not only by Grayson next to him but by Jordan and Hansel who were still fighting as well.
The two of them seemed to stop fighting at the same time. They both looked over at Fane. Only Fane stood fixed to the spot as if nothing had happened.
Yet, Malcolm was gone. Jordan panicked, "Malcolm? Where are you?"
He did not get a response. Other than the sounds of birds and bugs around them, there were no other noises. After a long time, the shrubs not too far in front of Fane started to rustle.
Jordan frowned. He no longer cared about Hansel at that moment as he hurried over to where the rustling was. He pulled something out to reveal Malcolm, who was bleeding everywhere.
No wonder Malcolm had disappeared earlier. After falling to the ground, the leaves around him had all been sent flying up. Once the leaves fell again, Malcolm was buried by it.
Malcolm's breathing was incredibly shallow at that moment. There was a lot of blood on his body. He
looked to be in an incredibly bad state. Jordan helped Malcolm up, and Malcolm spat out some blood before he looked up at Fane.
At the moment, he had lost all his earlier arrogance as he looked at Fane. All that was left was shock. The power from Fane's attack earlier had been much stronger than his own. When he was fighting against Fane earlier, it was obvious that Fane had shown mercy. Otherwise, he would not still be standing.
"Who are you?! How are you so strong?! You're definitely not at the early stage of the spring solidifying realm!" If Fane was at the early stage, he would not have lost so badly.
