Chapter 3254 The Astonishment Of The Master of North Pavilion
Yet, they were hapless against it.
Getting killed was to be expected, as they should not have sought to cross Levi.
Before the arrival of the sixth wave itself, the aura that it exuded had seemingly begun to tear at their bodies, and the scorching pain that assailed them left them wishing for death.
Very soon, the sixth wave of the attack came roaring in, and like the searing sun itself, it threatened to scour them to ashes.
Already convinced of the certainty of their own demise, the Three Sages had snapped their eyes shut in despair, but the attack halted before it could blast them to smithereens—Levi had surprisingly absorbed it back in its entirety.
“Huh?”
Swiftly sensing something amiss, the trio opened their eyes in time to catch a glimpse of Levi pulling back the final wave of his own attack.
Astonishing! Simply astonishing!
Naturally, they understood the difficulty of drawing back an attack compared to unleashing it, especially when it came to powers that were that immense.
Therein, it was clear that Levi’s true might was beyond the limits of their own comprehension.
“Y-You’re not going to kill us?” The Three Sages regarded Levi questioningly.
“I would have done so had you been covetous of my spiritual bone or weapon. But since you’re merely looking to recruit a disciple, I won’t! Now begone, and trouble me no more, or you shall not find yourself in such luck again next time!” said Levi coldly.
Momentarily dumbstruck, the Three Sages held their own tongues while they stumbled off.
They would certainly not be coming round to bother Levi again as they were, firstly and foremost, genuinely afraid that Levi might take their lives.
Secondly, they were all hurt and needed to return to recuperate.
However, they were all sniggering after their departure.
“This time, the Ecclesiastic Order and the Esoteric Guild would be in for a riot!” the trio chortled.
Obviously, Levi’s abilities had far surpassed their own projections.
Of all people, the Ecclesiastic Order had to go tangle with him. They’re inviting trouble into their backyard and setting themselves up for utter mayhem!
Levi, too, was a little miffed.
Having thought that he might get to slaughter a couple of fighters from the Ecclesiastic Order, he did not foresee that they would be here to recruit disciples, and without ill intent.
It was also in consideration of Sonja and the others from North Pavilion who had somewhat helped him before that he opted not to kill them off.
“But woe be to whoever who comes next!” Levi declared with a sneer.
The Three Sages of North Pavilion are not interested in my God Crusher and spiritual bone because they are too strong and in too privileged a position to be in need of these. It would be hard to say the same of others. In all of the Ecclesiastic Order, there are not too many like this trio, so most of them would still be likely to covet what I have.
Elsewhere.
Entering into the depths of the mountains, one would come upon a magnificent building.
That was where the North Pavilion was based.
The Three Sages held themselves together by sheer force of will as they dragged themselves back there, and that was when Doran Xenos, head of North Pavilion, encountered them.
“Whatever happened to you, my Three Sages?” Doran was taken aback at the sight of the trio.
The Three Sages of North Pavilion, injured? This is truly unthinkable!
It had been a long time since the last occurrence of something like that. Who was there who could match up against the Three Sages, to begin with, and then leave them injured to this extent? Simply impossible! It would be hard enough to find someone capable of this within the Ecclesiastic Order itself, surely? Unless… it was one of those legendary figures who had gone missing? With not one, but all three of the Sages wounded, and all at the same time? That would surely take the combined efforts of the elites from the major factions of the Ecclesiastic Order to accomplish? But why would they do such a thing?
Doran promptly approached to seek answers from the Three Sages, whose faces were wrought with shame.
Going forward to recruit a disciple only to get beaten up to this extent? It was a good thing that we did not mention the purpose of our trip prior, as we would have been unable to show our faces back here otherwise.
“Stop asking already! From today onwards, the three of us shall be recuperating in retreat! You shall oversee the management of North Pavilion’s affairs in our stead!”
The Three Sages left him with that before they went off to their retreat in a hurry.
Doran remained confused.
Who was it who did this to them?
To make things worse, there was a pair of prying eyes fixated upon them from the shadows without their knowledge…
