Chapter 3520 A Sense Of Fulfillment
Floyd was stupefied. He froze right where he was with cold sweat streaming down his back.
That was close!
He stared into the air, aghast. The tip of the weapon almost brushed against his throat.
He still bled although the tip of the sword did not cut his skin. The ripples of its movement were enough to injure him.
Considering the fact that God Crusher’s force was enough to cut his skin, Floyd would have been dead if Levi had not stopped the weapon in time.
For a moment, Floyd thought he saw Gloria amidst the commotion.
Don’t tell me that was really her.
Was she trying to kill me?
No. She would never do that. She’s the person I love the most.
It must be me. I’m seeing things since I thought I was going to die.
Floyd thought he must be imagining things in the moments right before his death.
Yeah. That’s why I thought I saw Gloria.
Phew! Good thing I’m still alive, else I won’t get to see her again.
I can’t just die like this and leave her a widow.
She would be devastated if I left her all alone in this world.
She won’t be able to deal with this kind of pain.
There’s no way she can live on without me.
Since he was already in safe territory, Floyd’s thoughts started racing here and there thinking of the what-ifs.
No one realized that Levi was the one who took all the risks to save his friend and his disciples’ lives.
If he were a split of a second late, all of them would have died, and that was the last thing Levi wanted to see.
The two ambushes happened concurrently, and even for someone as strong as Levi, dealing with these two attacks together was a close call; yet, despite the pressure, he still managed to save his friends.
Just as everyone was heaving a sigh of relief, Levi had already planned on a counter-attack, but to his horror, Bone Grandmaster and Xylas were already nowhere to be found when he looked back at them again!
Bone Grandmaster’s strong suit was not his ability to fight, but his ability to flee and run.
Levi had once experienced that for himself.
Besides, given Bone Grandmaster’s thorough understanding of the Ecclesiastic Order, there was no way Levi could hunt him down.
On top of that, the person who dealt the blow and used the God Crusher had also vanished right under his nose.
No way I’m letting this slide!
Levi vouched to track them down, but he soon realized that he could not.
What if this is a trap to divert my attention and lure me away?
I really can’t read the situation clearly now. This thing goes deep.
What if they strike Azure Dragon and the other four again?
This will be too great of a loss for me to bear.
I can’t leave now.
I can chase after them, but that means I can’t guarantee everyone’s safety over here.
It will be worse if I lose both the enemies and put everyone else in danger.
Levi could tell from the concerted attacks at Azure Dragon and Floyd that everything was a carefully-laid plan.
The person on the opposite side was cunning, and there might be a potential trap lying in wait for Levi.
They might unleash a massacre once I’m not around.
While Levi was still contemplating his next course of action, Bone Grandmaster had brought Xylas to meet up with Gloria.
“So is this the end?”
Bone Grandmaster could not believe no one came after him.
Who am I kidding? Levi’s a top-class fighter. There’s no way he’s letting me go just like this.
This is impossible!
Am I missing something?
“Yes. He won’t be coming after us. I know him too well. He’s afraid we have another trap set up for him, so he won’t leave his people alone.”
Gloria knew right from the beginning that Levi would not put everyone’s lives at stake.
“Whoah! That means it’s a landslide victory for us this time. We took his bounty away from right under his nose and we even used his weapon!”
It was a day of achievement for Gloria.
She had always wanted to face Levi in a fight all that time, and the day finally came.
She could finally humiliate that man.
Soon, the two brought Xylas to Corpse Pit.
He was still recovering from the shock he experienced earlier.
When he finally came back to his senses, he was astonished to find that the person who captured him was actually Gloria. “Y-you! I’ve seen you before, but how could it be you?”
Xylas had been to different factions before and he had seen Gloria in the past too, yet it never once occurred to him that she was actually the big boss behind the scene.
“Well, I might be a nobody last time, but not anymore.”
“Why did you save me?” Xylas asked in disbelief.
To him, there was no incentive for Gloria to save him.
