With a loud bang, Leonard Lei was knocked backward and fell to the ground, blood splattering everywhere. Sebastian Zhao stood in front of him; just as the wooden club struck his cheek, Sebastian Zhao circled behind Leonard Lei, grabbed him, and threw him hard onto the ground.
"You’re much stronger than those others. If you hadn’t held back, this guy would already be dead."
Wraithshade raised the wooden club in his hand, then pulled out the bone blade embedded in his shoulder. Joseph Qiao slowly stood up; at that moment, Phoenix Yu whispered something in his ear and turned to run.
With a swift motion, Wraithshade waved his hand, and a stream of black energy instantly wrapped around Phoenix Yu, who cried out and dropped to his knees.
Leonard Lei’s cheek was completely swollen; his left eye couldn’t open, and blood streamed from his mouth and nose. Sebastian Zhao gripped the bone blade tightly, glancing toward the house where Yuna Ji was.
"Finish it quickly. I don’t want to make a scene."
As he spoke, wisps of black energy appeared on Wraithshade’s shoulder. Suddenly, his speed became inhumanly fast—he was right in front of Sebastian Zhao in the blink of an eye, swinging the wooden club at Sebastian’s head.
With a whoosh, Sebastian Zhao ducked and rolled to the side. There was a loud bang—the spot where Sebastian had just been was left with a gaping hole. Wraithshade looked at Sebastian, surprised.
"Your ability to sense danger is much better than most. But you’re still just human."
I'll kill you.
Joseph Qiao roared, grabbing the half-broken sword and charging forward. Leonard Lei also struggled to his feet on the ground. At this moment, Phoenix Yu was nowhere to be seen—he had already crawled out of the courtyard, dragging himself along the ground.
