”You bastard!”

The moment Romney’s cruel words reached Avnora’s ears,

the fury and killing intent in the Marchioness’ heart could no longer be restrained.

They erupted with explosive force!

The icy pressure radiating from her caused every nearby soldier to feel an indescribable sense of oppression.

Their bodies trembled involuntarily.

Recalling the horrific sight of her son and daughter-in-law’s tragic deaths,

Avnora’s face gradually twisted with rage.

She would not repeat the same mistake!

This time,

she absolutely would not allow this monster to harm her granddaughter!

”Die, you piece of scum!”

Along with Avnora’s heart-wrenching roar,

frigid purple battle aura instantly wrapped itself around her spear!

In the blink of an eye,

her entire body transformed into a bolt of violet lightning!

Like a roaring purple dragon, she charged at Romney with overwhelming force!

The violent lightning instantly scorched everything in its path black.

The once beautiful Blue Rose Garden had already ceased to exist.

The smell of burnt earth filled the air.

The overwhelming pressure produced by a Saint-Class expert fighting at full strength caused those with insufficient power nearby to shudder uncontrollably.

It felt as though even their souls were about to be torn apart.

The instant Avnora made her move,

the surrounding guards also let out thunderous battle cries before raising their weapons and charging the members of the Heavenly Punishment Holy Church.

The battle erupted instantly.

Under the overwhelming pressure,

Benjamin’s face filled with terror as he desperately looked toward Romney for help.

His strength was simply too insignificant.

Even with protective treasures, he likely wouldn’t survive this chaotic battlefield.

”M-Mr. Romney!!!”

However,

Romney paid no attention to Benjamin’s cries.

Instead,

he stared excitedly at the rapidly approaching Avnora.

”That’s right! This is how it should be! Prey that fights back is far more entertaining! I just hope that after I cut off your arms and legs, you’ll still have this much spirit. Hehehe~”

After letting out another horrifying laugh,

Romney drew two curved blades from behind his back.

”Demon Soul Wheels~”

Romney narrowed his black eyes.

White battle aura exploded outward.

Bathed in dazzling white light,

he swung his blades in an extraordinarily bizarre manner.

The next instant,

Avnora’s lightning spear arrived,

violently colliding with Romney’s twin blades!

The resulting shockwave blasted Benjamin hundreds of meters away,

sending him crashing into a wall before he lost consciousness.

After another violent explosion of energy,

the dense battle aura surrounding the lightning spear began weakening in an unnaturally strange manner under Romney’s assault.

When Romney exerted force once again,

the lightning shattered completely.

Clang~

With a crisp metallic ring,

Avnora’s attack was completely neutralized.

Romney’s counterattack immediately followed.

Although Avnora tried to evade,

she was still struck three times by Romney’s blades.

Bright crimson blood instantly stained her white dress.

Her abdomen was then hit by a brutal kick from Romney.

She was sent flying backward,

crashing through a distant fountain and shattering it into pieces.

A mouthful of blood immediately burst from her lips.

”Madam!”

Seeing this,

a Blizzard Knight hurried to Avnora’s side.

”Madam! Are you alright?!”

”D-Don’t worry about me...”

Avnora pressed a hand against her abdomen as she gasped.

”Go protect Xia’er... and quickly notify Xiumu...”

However,

before she could finish speaking,

Romney’s leisurely voice drifted into her ears.

”Trying to ask the Marquis for help, Madam? What a pity... I’m afraid His Lordship can barely save himself right now~”

?!!

”W-What did you say?!”

Watching Romney effortlessly slash dozens of soldiers aside as he charged toward her,

Avnora tightened her grip on her spear and demanded sharply.

Romney merely revealed another sinister smile.

He had no intention of explaining.

”Hehe... don’t worry. Families should stay together, after all~ Soon enough, I’ll send your whole family to reunite. Hehehehehe~”

Accompanied by his chilling laughter,

Romney’s blade rapidly enlarged within Avnora’s vision...

Meanwhile,

the Marquis’ Estate had also descended into fierce battle.

”Soul-Shattering Slash!!!”

Accompanied by Marquis Xiumu-Duke’s earth-shaking roar,

violent azure sword aura erupted from his blade,

transforming into a terrifying sword strike that seemed capable of cutting through anything before it.

The terrifying wave of sword energy split over half of the estate in two!

The scattered azure energy mercilessly crushed everything nearby into fragments.

Under Xiumu’s devastating attack,

more than twenty black-robed enemies charging toward him were instantly annihilated.

Some exploded into mangled chunks of flesh,

while others collapsed to the ground, unable to rise again.

After eliminating the enemies before him,

Marquis Xiumu hurriedly turned toward the breathtaking silver-haired girl standing behind him.

”Miss Mengxi! Are you alright?!”

”I’m fine. There’s no need to worry.”

Calmly replying,

Mengxi simultaneously swung her sword,

instantly killing two members of the Heavenly Punishment Holy Church who had attempted to ambush her.

Her strength had now reached the Sixth Tier.

Combined with her already exceptional foundation,

ordinary Sixth-Tier experts were no longer a match for her.

”I’m sorry, Miss Mengxi, for dragging you into acting as bait alongside me.”

”It’s nothing. If anything, those people were targeting me from the beginning. I should be thanking you, Marquis, for fighting beside me.”

”That’s only natural. You’re Xia’er’s benefactor. How could I possibly allow anything to happen to you?”

As he spoke,

Xiumu cast an icy gaze toward the remaining members of the Heavenly Punishment Holy Church.

Even after being swept by the Marquis’ murderous gaze and sensing the terrifying sword aura surrounding him,

none of them showed the slightest fear.

Instead,

they sharpened their weapons, preparing to launch another assault.

”Damned cultists...”

Glancing across the devastated battlefield,

Xiumu cursed inwardly.

At the same time,

his eyes drifted toward the distant main residence of the Marquis’ Estate.

I wonder...

Did they manage to escape...?

”They” naturally referred to the servants of the estate.

While Xiumu and Mengxi drew the attention of these fanatical cultists,

the servants, who possessed almost no combat ability,

had begun evacuating the estate under the protection of Audit and several soldiers.

Under normal circumstances,

the Marquis’ Estate possessed extremely powerful defenses.

Even an invasion on today’s scale could have been repelled.

However,

because Xiumu had recently dispatched most of the Blizzard Knights to reinforce the frontline fortress,

the estate’s defenses had become somewhat understaffed before replacements could arrive.

More importantly,

when the battle began,

half of the remaining defenders suddenly suffered various abnormal conditions—including poisoning—

rendering them completely incapable of fighting.

That was what had made the battle so one-sided.

Recalling the earlier events,

Xiumu clenched his fists tightly,

his anger bursting uncontrollably from his eyes.

The estate guards had been mysteriously poisoned?!

Without question,

someone inside had drugged them!

And the person capable of doing such a thing...

Xiumu couldn’t help thinking of Benjamin.

The man’s recent behavior had simply been too abnormal.

Furthermore,

for so many members of the Heavenly Punishment Holy Church to enter Wind Facing City,

they had to have an insider within the city.

And not just anyone—

someone with a very high position,

someone capable of issuing large numbers of entry passes.

There were only a handful of people who possessed such authority.

Thinking of that,

Xiumu had all but confirmed the traitor’s identity.

Even so,

he still found it difficult to believe.

Benjamin had lived with them for well over a decade.

He had practically raised the boy himself.

And now...

Benjamin had actually colluded with the Heavenly Punishment Holy Church?

Ungrateful wretch!

I never should have entrusted him with the authority over the city’s defenses!

After kicking away another member of the Heavenly Punishment Holy Church,

Xiumu cursed inwardly.

However,

just as he did,

a terrifying pressure suddenly entered his perception.

Even this battle-hardened veteran couldn’t help revealing an incomparably solemn expression.

His body even trembled slightly.

The reason was simple.

The aura was unimaginably cold,

reeking heavily of blood.

More importantly,

it was overwhelmingly powerful.

Powerful enough to fill even him with fear.

Gripping the hilt of his sword,

Xiumu slowly turned around.

Standing behind him,

without anyone noticing when he had arrived,

was a handsome man with dark emerald-green hair.

His hands were clasped behind his back,

and a faint smile rested upon his face.

Judging by the sheer density of the aura radiating from him,

this mysterious man...

was undoubtedly an Eighth-Tier powerhouse.

”Good day to you, Marquis...

and Miss Mengxi.”
