A death aura was already surrounding Frank, even as Bocek suddenly apuded.


    He looked down upon the ck-d corpses all over the ce and snorted. "I thought these


    ipetent fools would at least hurt you... I didn''t think you''d have helped."


    Just then, Bocek nced at Aion Fairfax''s granddaughter, whose face was flushed as she panted. Aion


    was himself struck on the shoulder, and his cheeks were pale.


    "I wonder, how much vigor do you still have?" Bocke then chuckled, sping his hands behind his


    back. "How would you fare against me now?"


    "Cut the crap!" Aion''s granddaughter snapped right then—it seemed that she waspletely on


    Frank''s side now, although she was wobbling and exhausted.


    "Thank you both for the assistance. I''m awash with gratitude," Frank said with a brief nce at the two


    as he walked over the ck-d men''s corpses up to Bocek, who still stood with his hands sped


    behind his back.


    "This is my business now. Please leave as soon as you can."


    "Give up already, Frank!" Quinn snapped. "You can''t even stand straight now!"


    However, she was the one who could not help taking a step back as she was already traumatized with


    Frank, and he looked especially savage now as he was covered in blood.


    Not just anyone could y over a hundred Sage Lake Sect martial elites, and Quinn looked at Frank as


    if he were a monster.


    "Don''t try to bluff, Frank." Bocek sneered. "I know you have no vigor left. What do you have to bluff with


    when you''re at death''s door? Just drop to your knees, and I shall spare your life."


    "No vigor? At death''s door?" Frank suddenly chuckled.


    Bocek frowned, a foreboding sensation gripping him right then.


    But did he really have anything left after ying over a hundred Sage Lake Sect apprentices?


    If he did, then was he even human?


    Narrowing his eyes, Bocek barked, "Still bluffing, huh?!"


    "You''ll understand soon enough." Frank put his hands together, his eyes blood red as a wave of pure


    vigor of the same color suddenly bursting away from him.


    "What?! This is."


    Frank''s abrupt move left Bocek flinching, and Aion was stunned as well.


    "What is he doing, Grandpa?" Aion''s granddaughter asked in confusion.


    "He''s focusing his own death aura while recharging himself by absorbing the death aura of the corpses


    around him... Gosh, I understand now! That''s how Donn Lawrence could break his way past the


    encirclement when his sect fell!"


    Aion suddenly grabbed his granddaughter''s hand and started to run toward the back door of Silver


    Spring Dojo. "We need to run, or we''ll both die if it''s toote!"


    "Hey! Burt is over there near the pile of corpses!"


    "Don''t bother! We need to get out of here!"


    Even so, Aion''s granddaughter ignored her grandfather''s cries as she stubbornly found Burt from the


    pile of corpses, grabbing his arm and dragging him toward the back door.


    It was fortunate the floor was slick with blood, or she would not have been able to move Burt at all!


    Bang!


    Aion and his granddaughter sighed in relief as they mmed the back doors shut and almost fell as a


    horrible eruption unfurled within.


    It could well be an earthquake as the entire building shook!Text ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org.
