Spurt!
Showers of blood began rapidly rushing out of Yuhen as he had a shocked expression on his face and his mouth vaguely moved but no sounds came out from it.
"Death welcomes you into the sweet sublime embrace of its scythe," Leo whispered and Yuhen lifelessly fell backwards into the hard cracked concrete ground.
There was a clean visible sharp diagonal cut that went from his right shoulder to the left side of his waist as blood continuously poured out as he died not knowing how he died.
"Sect Leader!" the elders called out together as they rushed to the body like starved survivors who had just seen a plate of meat.
As they saw the wounds that were written on his body fear filled their bodies. Yuhen's robes were so clueless cut in half as if it was done by some master craft scissors and there was absolutely no trace if other wounds at all, his body has been just straight up cut in half.
"You! How dare you!" an elder furiously spoke as he forced himself to his feet and began charging towards Leo along with the rest of the elder who were suddenly filled with willpower and anger.
"Don't bother attacking," Leo blandly warned as swung his sword in a half circle towards the ground in front of the elder.
A loud scraping noise sounded as a large deep but extremely thin hole was cut by the sword causing all the elders to temporarily stop in their path.
Seeing the damage the Leo was able to do from just a simple swing, they all began to sweat profusely from doubt and unease.
"Your sect leader has been killed. You guys can choose a new leader and not bully the lower class people ever again. I don't have any personal vendetta against the rest of your guys so we can end this peacefully now," Leo suggested.
"What do you mean? Do you not see the Phoenix that is currently raging its flames on our sect?" and elder mockingly asked.
"We can stop that. All you need to do is to agree," Leo replied.
"Hahaha! How stupid!" the Lion Hall elder laughed out as he took a step forward.
"Do you think you can't get away with this? You have just killed a member of royalty. The Lapis Kingdom will forever see your group as a criminals now," he roared.
"Well, see about that," Leo replied with a smile, "So, what is it going to be?"
"Your top priority should not be in us and instead on the girls," the elder laughed as an evil plotting smile appeared on his face.
A wave of worry struck Leo as he immediately sensed the presence of an incredibly strong foe.
"What have you done?" Leo asked with a hint of sudden seriousness as he turned his head towards the girls. Aurora had gathered the two women and was currently healing them.
"Haha! Do you think we were just standing around when you were fighting our sect leader?" the elder evilly asked.
Swoosh!
A large spear suddenly shot out like a bullet from the far distance in the direction of Aurora.
"Watch out!" Leo called out.
Alarmed, Aurora instantly saw the spear but she was not fast enough to completely avoid it.
Slash!
The spear quickly landed on a firm piece of the arena wall that was still standing with blood coating it one side. It had cleanly slashed right through the right side of Aurora's waist.
"Argh!" Aurora screamed in pain as she fell on one knee with one hand propping herself steady while the other was firmly place on her wound that had rosy-red blood quickly leaking from it.
Boom!
The air in the place seemed to change as a man with a large build walked onto the grounds. He had simple leather armour that accentuated all his hard earned muscles.
"I was sure that I had got you cleanly but that boy managed to warn you in time," the man spoke as he revealed his scary slender face.
Shadow Eight Steps!
Leo almost instantly arrived to Aurora with an incredibly serious face filled with concern.
"You OK?" he asked.
"Yeah, I can manage but I can't fight anymore," Aurora replied with a slightly pain expression.
Caw! Caw...
As series of painful shrieks sounded from the Phoenix as its body suddenly became illusory and it slowly faded into the air.
"OK, I'll take it from here. You did well, I'll take all of you to Lex and the girl now," Leo gave a warm smile as he and the three women suddenly disappeared.
"Sir Quinn, you are letting them go?" the Lion Hall elder asked curiously. The last thing he wanted was to see Aurora survive since she had killed his disciple.
"No, Aston. He will be back. They can't be taken too far from here. We can catch them easily," the man replied as he simply walked forward and retrieved his spear.
Whoosh!
Leo suddenly appeared from the treelines with the two women in his arms and Aurora on top. He quickly washed up a hill and reached the place where he had placed Lex and Leila.
"OK, we're here," he informed Aurora as he slowly placed all of them on the ground.
Sigh!
"What wrong?" Leo asked curiously as he heard Aurora sigh loudly.
"Another sect is getting taken down. Is this what the world is like?" Aurora asked with a frustrated expression.
"I don't know. But that sect can't continue existing, I'm off," Leo replied as he got up and walked out.
"Enjoy the view!"
"So that's what you mean by that," Aurora spoke as a helpless smile appeared on her face. She now knew why Leo had placed them here. As she looked out, she had a perfect view of the sect from the hill...
"Sir! Do you think they might have escaped?" the Lion hall elder asked as he could no longer wait.
"Haha. If even if they did, they wouldn't be able to run away. I can trace them easily with her blood," Quinn replied as he stoked the blade on his spear. His attention was then suddenly caught by Leo who emerged from the far distance.
"You finally arrived," he spoke.
"You will regret your decision," Leo spoke with a cold expression as he walked forward, making onto the arena floor.
"I'll regret it more if I don't kill her," Quinn replied.
"Well then, let's begin, you probably work for the royal family so there's no use trying to reasons with you," Leo spoke with a bored expression as he took out his simple silver sword and dashed forward and began to exchange moves with Quinn.
