Chapter 870 Determined To Take His Life
The moment Killian caught sight of Ruben, he was already desperately fleeing
from the sword training hall.
But in the end, he was merely a Foundation Stage cultivator. How could he
possibly escape the pursuit of Ruben? The murderous intent of Ruben’s life
energy suddenly bore down on him.
Buss!
At the critical moment, the protective emerald pendant that Killian was wearing
suddenly shattered. In an instant, a dazzling barrier materialized around him,
successfully deflecting the lethal blow.
Taking advantage of the few remaining seconds of the barrier, Killian made a
frantic escape.
Ruben’s face was clouded with anger as he barked, “I knew someone was
pulling the strings from behind the scenes! That scoundrel, Devon, even gave
you such an advanced protective emerald pendant!”
Naturally, Ruben wouldn't let Killian off so easily. He relentlessly pursued him,
and just as the barrier was about to dissipate, another wave of murderous life
energy swept out.
Killian felt a chilling aura of death. He realized that this time, Ruben was deadly
serious. In a panic, he bellowed, “Save me!”
No sooner had his words fallen than the aura of death abruptly vanished into thin
air.
Two figures materialized beside Killian, effectively dissipating Ruben’s murderous
life energy.
It was Caden and Devon.
Upon seeing them appear, Ruben was instantly consumed by rage, unable to
contain his fury. He roared, “You two b*stards, what was your intention in having
Killian destroy my son's elixir field?”
“Mr. Ruben, please don’t wrongfully accuse us,” Caden said, his expression
unchanging. “This is clearly a personal feud between Killian and Peter. What
does it have to do with us?”
Devon nodded and said, “Mr. Ruben, you have indeed wronged me. I am, after
all, an upright man.”
“Wronged you? Well then, why don’t you explain? What's the deal with this
protective emerald pendant?” Ruben looked at Devon and scoffed.
Devon explained, “Killian is a swordsmanship prodigy from my Origin Sword
Sect. Naturally, I have to nurture him. I couldn't just stand by and watch him meet
an untimely end. Giving him a protective emerald pendant for self-defense is
quite normal, isn’t it?”
“You're full of crap! Don't think for a second that I don’t know what you two are up
to!” Ruben yelled furiously,
“Mr. Ruben, please, don't get agitated,” they said, “As for what truly transpired,
why don’t we just ask Killian?”
With an air of feigned nonchalance, Devon turned to Killian and said, “Killian,
don't you think it's high time you gave us a detailed account of what happened?”
“Indeed!”

Killian had already regained his
composure from the earlier shock
and slowly began to speak, “After
returning from my journey in the
outside world, I heard that the
inheritance of Sword King Mountain
had been stolen. Pr one ofl
the possiblelduspebts, and naturally, I
was not pleased. Today, as a mentee,
I arrived at the sword training hall
where I saw Peter showing off. He
was boasting that his sword energy
had reached the level of a master. I
couldn't help but grumble a few
words under my breath, which,
unfortunately, Peter overheard.
Consequently, he challenged me to a
spar, declaring he wanted to avenge
my insult. Of course, I wasn't afraid of
him, so we ended up in a fight. I didn't
mean to destroy Peter's elixir field,
but he refused to admit defeat. I had
no choice but to fight until he yielded,
and in the heat of the moment, I
might have hit him too hard...” Visit

“What a joke!”
Suddenly, Ruben interrupted, his voice filled with anger. “Anyone who could see
could tell that you were deliberately aiming for Peter's elixir field. How dare you
claim it was an accident?”
That was nothing but utter nonsense!

“F*ck you!”
Ruben was a man of strong emotions. The people in front of him were clearly
denying their wrongdoings, and he was finding it hard to hold back his urge to
curse out loud.

“What's the big deal if I decided to cuss you today?”
That rendered the other party speechless.
“I didn’t care whether Killian acted deliberately or on impulse. He had grievously
injured my son. Today, I'm determined to take his life!” Once again, a murderous
intent erupted from Ruben.
