"This was unexpected," Gale whispered softly, under his breath.
He had cleaned up this place in a matter of seconds. Now, he was being eyed by two hundred girls.
Gale turned his head in their direction and asked. "Do you guys want to have me free you?"
The girls nodded their heads vigorously and begged.
"Please, free me. My old parents are already very worried about me."
"I don't want to stay here. I wanna go away, I want to leave this town."
"Please save us. We won't forget this debt."
Gale listened and looked around carefully. He saw most of this voice of desperation coming from the girls born as commoners. The girls from the two clans and the family had their chests puffed up and sat silently - like they were waiting for their prince charming to come and save them.
"Huh~" Gale breathed out as he looked at them pitifully. 'They are in such a desperate situation yet are not asking for help; they still seem to be living in their dreams.'
Despite being disappointed, he went to help them out.
Slowly yet surely, he removed the collars from everyone's necks.
pαпdα-ňᴏνêι·сóМ After removing the last one, he looked at the collar in his hand, carefully. 'What is this item? It can easily make a cultivator powerless. Unfortunately, this item looks too weak to be used against cultivators above the Golden Core Realm.'
Just as Gale tossed the collar away, from the corners of his eyes, he saw someone.
Gale turned around and said with a smirk."I didn't expect you to be still alive, Elder Thunder."
This caught the attention of most of the girls, who were rejoicing after getting freed. They looked in the direction Gale was looking and saw a haggard, heavily injured man walking slowly toward them, using his sword as a cane.
Among these girls were a bunch from the Burnheart family. They immediately recognized who it was.
"Elder Thunder, what is wrong with you?" A voice of concern sounded, which made Gale glance a little.
He noticed a mature, middle-aged woman with bangs in her red hair. Her slender and smooth body could bring many young girls to their shame. Gale knew who it was, as he didn't have to use "Inspection" on her.
"Miss Zoon, why are you here?" Elder Thunder also recognized this woman as this was the wife of the Burnheart Family's patriarch, Brustiar's wife, Zoon.
Zoon looked at Elder Thunder with worry and concern. "What happened to you? Why are you so heavily injured? Are you perhaps holding back some strong guys to let this young man come and save us?"
Zoon guessed that Gale and Elder Thunder were working together to save them. Along the way, Elder Thunder occupied the big and dangerous guys while Gale came sneakily to save them.
"Ha…Hahaha….HAHAHA!" Gale couldn't hold himself together after hearing that and burst out laughing like a maniac.
This left everyone dumbfounded, especially Zoon. She didn't know why Gale started laughing just after she said that. She didn't think she said anything funny.
The girls whispered among themselves as they felt creepy, and some fear started to bud in their hearts.
"What is wrong, Elder Thunder?" Zoon asked with nervousness, as she couldn't understand why their savior was acting like this.
Elder Thunder answered back with black lines all over his face. "Miss Zoon, you might not know him as you are always busy taking care of the house and your personal family. But I am sure you have heard about that kid going rogue in our family? Who killed his own family member? It is him, Gale Burnheart."
The girls from Burnheart Family gasped out loud, not expecting their savior to be this person.
Zoon covered her mouth in shock; her innocent heart couldn't take such cruelty, she asked Gale. "Why did you do th-"
Zoon didn't finish her question as it got overwhelmed by Gale's laughter.
"HAHAHAHA…HAHA..haha…ha.." Gale's laughter gradually calmed down.
He looked at Elder Thunder, tilting his head and having a grin on his face. "I can't believe you can still lie as though you are breathing air. Elder Thunder, I am done with you. I could have killed you earlier with the arsenal I had under my sleeves."
Gale was telling the truth as he didn't use the newly founded skills he got after killing Nakal. He was sure that if he used that, he could have killed Elder Thunder with less difficulty. But he didn't, as he needed pressure, pressure to help him learn something.
"Elder Thunder, I will let you die under the new technique you helped me awaken." Gale raised his right hand above his head and sliced down in a chopping motion. " [ Warrior's Spear - Third Form - Sky Cleaver ] "
Just as Gale's hand came down, Elder Thunder felt an impending danger alarming in his heart. He tried to raise his sword up to defend himself, but he was too late.
Thud(2)
Elder Thunder's body got separated from the middle, and the two parts fell down on the ground like a banana peel.
"What just happened?"
"I…I…I don't know. He just separated that old man without using any spiritual energy and from such distance."
The girls got scared and froze on the spot, not knowing what to do.
"Why…why did you kill him?" Zoon shouted at Gale, with slight tears in her eyes.
Gale gave a cold glare at Zoon and said."I can make you go ask him in person. Also, don't think I saved you because I am a hero or anything. You girls will bring benefits to me."
Gale's body vanished after leaving those words, letting many girls breathe a sigh of relief.
'Why?' Zoon wasn't satisfied with what she got. She felt anger seeing Elder Thunder, who didn't do anything, get killed for nothing. 'I will have to tell Brustiar about this. I want him cap-'
And again, she wasn't able to finish her thought process when she saw a woman with far superior beauty and dignity descend before all of them.
