Logically, it shouldn't have come to this. As confusion swept through the crowd, Damien Gray's lips curled into a chilling smile, a strange cold light flickering in his eyes. Felix Yu was instantly gripped by boundless terror—everyone had witnessed Ghostmaster's methods in the past. He dared not imagine what fate awaited him now.
It wasn't that he didn't want to break free or fight for his life, but Damien Gray's hand, though it seemed to rest lightly on his shoulder, carried a crushing force that rendered him completely immobile—even the thought of lifting a hand was impossible.
It was only a blink of an eye, yet the sensation of having one foot in hell made it feel as though an eternity had passed.
In the next instant, before the eyes of all, Felix Yu was torn apart, his blood and flesh splattering those nearby. The savage force that shredded him remained as fierce as ever, sending Quentin Drake and Liam Duanmu flying.
Everyone here had survived the martial world for years, seen countless horrors. Normally, such a scene would seem merely cruel, but facing Ghostmaster now, that chilling, tangible aura made their hearts shudder. Only now did they realize the folly of their actions.
They had truly enraged Ghostmaster!
The entire hall fell into a deathly silence. Even Liam Liu and Qin Yan, who were fighting Morgan Shangguan, were affected—their faces darkened.
After dispatching the three opponents, Damien Gray immediately attacked the other two. Feeling the chilling aura closing in, Qin Yan turned pale and shouted, "Alliance Leader, activate the formation!"
Liam Duanmu hadn't made a move yet because the area was protected by a formation. He needed to wait for the right moment to activate it and trap Damien Gray and Morgan Shangguan.
Liam Duanmu didn't activate the formation as Qin Yan requested. The reason was simple: no one dared underestimate Ghostmaster and Fiona Yun. They insisted on using the most vicious formation, which, once activated, would trap everyone inside. If he triggered it now, Qin Yan and Liam Liu wouldn't escape either. Qin Yan's plea was clearly for self-preservation, but even if the formation was activated, it couldn't separate Ghostmaster from the others.
