Chapter 498

A stage seven grandmaster and a stage three grandmaster were not in the same league at all. Finn had only used about 80% of his inner energy. A faint ripple enveloped his fist, and Carson did not dare block

it at all.

He moved quickly, creating a distance of about ten meters between

them.

Finn’s ‘punch created a fierce shockwave that pushed several of Black Tiger’s henchmen back, leaving them terrified and fearful. The pressure from the punch had even sent them retreating. If that punch had connected with their heads, the consequences would have been

disastrous.

Black Tiger now realized Finn was an expert among experts.

“Mr. Black, let’s keep our distance!” Several of Black Tiger’s men

escorted him as they retreated.

In a battle between experts, ordinary people like them had no

business getting close. Black Tiger moved back to his Bentley, wiping

the sweat from his forehead with a handkerchief.

It was unclear if it was because the sun seemed particularly intense that day or if it was because of the excessive tension in the air.

After missing his strike, Finn sprinted and almost instantly appeared in front of Carson. The speed of a stage seven grandmaster was fast enough that his figure had only been an afterimage.

Carson had no time to react at all and was struck in the chest. He

was sent flying like a kite with a broken string.

Finn knew Nash and the others were watching him.

He wanted to leave a suave impression for Yasmin. Just as he was

about to slip his hands into his pockets, a sudden sense of danger

overwhelmed him.

Without warning, Carson, who was on the ground, flicked his sleeves

and shot out two sleeve darts.

The sleeve darts came flying as Finn immediately dodged them. One

of the darts grazed his face. It was a close call! Another second later

and the dart might have struck his eye. Finn touched his tingling face,

his

eyes narrowing. “Are the darts poisoned?” he asked.

Carson rose from the ground slowly, his smile sinister. “You’re

correct. This is a poison passed down through my family. Even a

Mystique Loyalty Realm expert won’t survive more than three days!”

Finn’s expression began to stiffen at the statement, and his vision

became blurry. He could not see anything, but he could still hear the

sounds of fighting around him.

Carson pulled out a gleaming dagger from his waist and lunged at

Finn..

“Finn!” Ken noticed the situation on Finn’s side and raised his right

hand to catch the falling cleaver in front of him.

Sparks flew, and the man with the cleaver stood frozen. Ken applied slight pressure to his right hand and broke the cleaver in two. Hel

grabbed the broken blade and thrust it toward the man’s heart.

When the tip of the blade was just one centimeter away from the

man’s heart, he remembered Nash’s instruction about not causing

casualties.

Ken’s gaze turned cold before he rammed his knee into the man and sent him flying. He then tossed the blade toward Finn.

“Finn, duck.”

Finn heard Ken’s shout and then the whooshing sound behind him.

He tilted his head back. The broken blade flew past his nose toward

Carson.

Carson raised his dagger to block the broken blade while Ken rushed

over to Finn in a hurry.

Carson sneered. “A little grandmaster like you dares to challenge me?

Suddenly, his stage three grandmaster’s aura erupted. Dagger in

hand, he transformed into a shadow and attacked Ken.

In the blink of an eye, he delivered 40 to 50 strikes. No one could

follow his attack pattern. Ken had to raise his right hand into a

defensive position in front of him, sparks flying as the dagger and hi

unicorn arm collided with a series of clinks.
