BXBX NOVEL 592 Chapter 201
The black-haired man must have not been a mere grunt who wanted to infiltrate their sect, but one of the executives that tried to pull their daughter into the path of evil.
With something like that being brought up, the act of the head of the justice magistrate changed completely.
As he was someone who dealt with the dark sect members through most of his life, Daniel knew more about them than someone like Viola for whom those evil-doers weren\'t an object of interest and she would rather not know about them at all.
That was exactly why the beautiful woman had no idea that she hit the jackpot.
The knowledge that the executives of the dark sects are going around recruiting marital artists wasn\'t well known – but what
was a deeply guarded secret was that those people did not face the backlash of star power like the grunts did.
Daniel knew about that because he was one of the people who were responsible for making it a secret and safekeeping it.
The knowledge that it was possible to gain incredible strength by killing people and not facing any repercussions was deemed far too dangerous for the public to know.
The black-haired man\'s strength suddenly got a convenient explanation and the loss that the beloved child of Sagittarius suffered from his hands was no longer so humiliating.
There was also a clear target – a big fish from the dark sect out there prime for getting rid of.
"It is a bit disappointing though, I am not going to lie here. If I was aware of someone like him showing up, I would have brought more powerful people to capture and interrogate him, but, oh well. The most important thing is that he is no longer alive to corrupt inno-GBUGFH...!"
*WHOOOOSH*
*CRUNCH* *SPLAT*
The steel-gray-haired man nodded his head, looking back towards the site of destruction – just to have closing-in hand be the last thing he saw in his life as the next moment the black-haired man that Daniel and everyone else so foolishly presumed dead crushed the older man\'s head as if it was an overripe apple.
"!!!"
"AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!"
Steven backed off, too shocked to let out a sound, but when Viola noticed the brain matter smeared on her clothes, she let out a loud scream...
*WHAM* x2 *thump* x3
A scream was cut short by Zoemi knocking her and her husband out with a single punch each, and their bodies hit the ground at the same time that the beheaded corpse of the justice magistrate.
"Anyone who isn\'t from the Great Ram sect and still wants to live, sit down so I know not to kill you..."
The black-haired man straightened his back and shook off the bloody mess with pieces of steel-gray hair off and growled in a low, utterly terrifying voice.
"...!"
*thump*
While he spoke, Zoemi was looking straight at the beloved child of Sagittarius, Aaron – and the effect was instantaneous. Whether the boy was still scared after their fight in which he lost so thoroughly, or was it because his survival instinct kicked in in full power, Aaron sat down so fast that it was almost funny.
...but the situation was not humorous at all...
"Sect leader!"
"He killed the...!"
"Don\'t stand there like that! Surround him exterminate him!"
Unfortunately, the other marital artists that arrived at the Great Ram sect together with the deceased man did not follow the example given by the young prodigy.
…unfortunately for them...
The thing was, many of the marital artists that now surrounded and were attacking the black-haired man had a higher star level in the law of Capricorn, making them faster.
But that was exactly what Zoemi was used to.
Basically, every single monster that tried to ambush or attack him head-on during the time he spent lost in the sea of tees, was faster than him.
So what?
As long as they kept coming back, trying their luck, they would inevitably end up as a corpse.
This was no different.
"He isn\'t that toug..."
*CRUNCH*
A martial artist scoffed, rushing behind the black-haired man to attack him from the blind spot, getting his stomach grabbed and torn open by the insane grip of the man merely reaching his hand to the side.
"HHHHHHHHHRGUAAAARFGHGH...!"
"ROGE...!"
*CRUNCH*
Another one slipped on the intestines that fell out of his comrade and got his brain to make an emergency exit from his skull in paste form.
"Kid."
"...!"
Zoemi spoke up, and even though it didn\'t cause the marital artist to stop or anything, Aaron trembled while looking up at him, knowing that the words were addressed to him.
"Close your eyes. It will only get worse."
"!!!"
Zoemi smirked although there was not even a trace of happiness in his eyes glowing with the power of the stars, and Aaron listened to him before he even realized it himself, not only shutting his eyes but also covering his ears with both hands.
"Aww. He is a good kid."
*WHAM* *crack*
"AAAAARRRGH...!
*CRUNCH*
The black-haired man smiled warmly and crushed the throat of a martial artist that broke his hand punching at his ribs.
"Why not surrender and minimize the trauma that he will get because of today?"
Zoemi asked, opening his hand and letting go of the compressed piece of gore that plopped to his feet, right where the bodies started to pile up.
His offer was not received well, if anything, it made the other marital artists even more vicious.
It was also the first recorded encounter of the martial artists from the Heavenly Star nation with a true unmovable object.
...and it was a messy one...
-------
The stealthy man in charge of surveilling the mission trembled in his hiding spot high atop the tallest building in the town – the Star Market Pagoda.
What he was witnessing was o unbelievable that he didn\'t even count on his superiors to believe his reports once he would make it.
How could they?
The harder the martial artist from the Heavenly Archer sect was hitting the black-haired man, the more damage they suffered themselves...!
