Leah Frost was indeed strong, but she definitely couldn't kill Gunner Tate.
From Maxton James' narrative, the image of Gunner Tate had already become quite vivid and specific.
Powerful, self-absorbed, indifferent, merciless!
With his own strength, he subdued the entire Five Dragon Sect; even now at just over fifty years old, one could see his terrifying talent.
An average Cultivator with some talent at that age would typically have Master Strength, but he had already become an Innate Grandmaster, and he could even overpower other Innate Grandmasters of the Five Dragon Sect. Such talent couldn't be described as anything but horrifying, no wonder he was so arrogant.
If Leah Frost could take down Gunner Tate, Carson wouldn't mind clinging to his aunt's coattails. However, based on the description provided by Gordon James, Gunner Tate's power had reached a certain realm, certainly not something Leah Frost could contend with.
