Chapter 1069 Humiliation Gerald couldnât bear to watch such a scene. He glanced at Xavier beside him. At that moment, Xavierâs eyes were filled with rage, quickly turning bloodshot red. He stared intently at his wife, who was tied to the pillar in front of him. Her body was covered in bruises, clearly indicating that she had been brutally beaten during this time. This is Xavierâs wife, and such a scene exposed in front of the public is the ultimate humiliation.
Damarion Felton!â Xavier gritted his teeth, and a terrifying aura began to rise from his body. Gerald noticed Xavierâs right hand starting to move rapidly, enveloped in a golden halo. A sharp sensation rose up his arm. Previously, he had taken action without using his attribute-related ability. Now, Gerald was witnessing him use his attribute-related ability for the first time.
Whoosh!
Just at that moment, up ahead, the person from the Soulreaper Sect suddenly moved, leaping into the air and landing on top of the pillar. Beneath his feet, a series of black shadows emerged, resembling black vines that entwined themselves around Xavierâs wife. Damarion sneered, âXavier, seeing you so angry makes me happy. Of course, if you want to take action, my friend from the Soulreaper Sect has a bad temper. If he accidentally causes your wife to be beheaded, you canât blame me!â
âDamarion, if you have the guts, come down here and face me one-on-one! I canât believe youâd stoop so low as to threaten people like this!â Yael couldnât take it anymore. He was naturally hot-tempered, and he glared angrily at Damarion above him, shouting furiously. Bamarion glanced at him disdainfully, not even bothering to engage with him. âHow can we let them go!â
Xavier finally exhaled.
At this moment, Gerald and his companions had also arrived behind Xavier. Of course, the aura they displayed at this time was merely at the level of peak Half-Step Flame Decay. All seven of them stood at the very back!
âRelease them?â Damarion said with a grin, âNo need to rush, Xavier. Werenât you the one who prided yourself on being loyal and righteous? You messed up my plans for a few unlucky souls back then. Just letting it go like this makes me feel very uncomfortable! How about this...â He looked at Xavier with a mischievous grin, âYou kneel down and imitate a dog barking. If you can amuse me, perhaps Iâll let you go!â âDamarion! Donât go too far!â Yaelâs face changed dramatically!
At this moment, the woman on the pillar seemed to regain consciousness. She shook her head slightly and then opened her eyes, seeing Xavier not far away. âXavier!â Her tears suddenly flowed down, murmuring, âXavier, go back quickly, donât worry about me anymore.â
Unsure if it was because his voice was too faint, Xavier didnât seem to hear what he said. At that moment, Xavier let out a long sigh, and with a flick of his hand, he knelt down in Damarionâs direction.
âWoof! Woof! Woof!â He stuck out his tongue, imitating a dog panting and barking. For the sake of his wife, he would risk his life;
he could even endure such humiliation.
âMr. Callum!â Triston was furious, wanting desperately to put an end to all this. However, reason told him that now was not the time to take action. Atop the city walls, laughter erupted as Damarion guffawed, âGuys, the famous Xavier Callum of Promise Island is barking like a dog beneath us! Hurry up and take out your recording devices to capture this moment, so we can share it with others later!â Snap! Snap!
A sound similar to that of a camera echoed throughout the area, as someone raised their device to capture the scene. Xavier gritted his teeth, raised his head, and looked at Damarion, asking, âNow... can you let them go?â
âI said, Iâll let you go when Iâm happy, but the way youâre talking to me right now is making me very unhappy. What kind of dog talks to its owner like that? Maintain this position and crawl over to me!â Damarion said with a grin.
On the pillar, tears streamed down Xavierâs wifeâs face as she murmured, âXavier, Iâm sorry, Iâm so sorry. Itâs my fault for being so foolish. Seeing you like this, Iâd rather die, Iâd rather die!â
Xavier didnât pay attention to her words. Even though his friends were desperately pulling him back, he had no choice at this moment. His beloved woman was in the hands of the enemy, and all he could do was follow their demands. canât take it anymore!â At this moment, Anabel said through gritted teeth. Gerald took a deep breath and said, âI canât take it anymore!â
As he spoke, he took a step forward and grabbed Xavier, who was lying on the ground, by the shoulder, saying, âMr. Callum, thereâs no need for this!â âI... have no choice!â Xavier turned his head.
âI wonât allow you to do this!â Gerald firmly grasped him. Up above, Damarion furrowed his brow and said, âXavier, what are you doing? Arenât you coming over?â âGet out of my way!â Xavier glared at Gerald, his expression darkening as he spoke. Gerald still held on to him tightly. âGet lost!â Xavier suddenly swung, sending a surge of Vital Energy carrying Gerald, directly flinging him towards the top of the city wall.
Gerald appeared to be nothing more than a Half-Step Flame Decayer at his peak. Seeing Gerald flying towards the city wall, Damarion didnât pay much attention to him. In fact, he was quite pleased to see Xavier and his own friend become enemies!
Watching Gerald fly towards the top of the wall, a hint of murderous intent appeared on his face. He stood up and swung his blade at Gerald, intending to kill him right in front of Xavier. At that moment, he suddenly felt something was off. He noticed that in Xavierâs eyes, it seemed as if he was anticipating something.
In that instant, he found that his slash of Vital Energy aimed at Gerald was evaded by a twist of Geraldâs body in mid-air. At the same time, a pair of wings suddenly unfurled from Geraldâs back! Hmm?â Damarionâs expression changed slightly as he said, âBra-â
Before he could even finish his word, a terrifying aura surged around Gerald in an instant, With the Dragon Saber unsheathed, his wings enveloped him, and in the blink of an eye, he charged towards the top of the pillar. Yes, all of this was a battle plan that Xavier and Gerald had discussed and prepared in advance!
Xavier thought of how Damarion would definitely mock him, so Gerald pretended to intervene. Then, Xavier feigned anger and pushed him towards Damarionâs direction. In an instant, Gerald erupted in fury!
The distance was too short. An expert at the peak level of Flame Decay, combined with the Silver Wings of the Archaic Tribe, could easily close this gap in an instant. Everything happened in the blink of an eye, from Xavier flinging Gerald away to Gerald rushing towards the pillar, it all took place in just a split second.
The Soulreaper Sect expert seemed to have never anticipated this scene. At this moment, Geraldâs body was surrounded by flashes of lightning and the rumble of thunder. The Dragon Saber, from bottom to top, aimed straight at the Soulreaper Sect expert! âSkyward Strike!â Snap!
Terrifying Vital Energy sweeps through! The manâs face changed dramatically, and the shadow shrouding Xavierâs wife quickly retracted. He transformed into a black shadow himself, swiftly moving away from that spot! This single strike made Gerald feel the threat of death.
At that moment, Gerald swiftly turned the blade, instantly cutting the rope that bound Xavierâs wife. He then leaped forward, scooping her up in his arms. With a powerful flap of his wings, they both soared into the air. Everything happened so quickly. The moment Damarion saw Gerald rescue Xavierâs wife, he couldnât help but think to himself, âThis is not good.â
âFor the sake of all that breathes!â Just at that moment, a furious roar rang in his ears. Following that, a blue light flickered, and a long spear suddenly shot towards him. âKill!â At the same time, Xavierâs furious roar echoed from below, followed by several surges of the supreme level of Flame Decay, which instantly soared into the sky.
