Chapter 219: I'll See Who Dares to Do So
Before Solomon brought it up, everyone had been careful not to break the matrix. They didn't stop exhausting its energy!
"It won't work if they keep striking it. Once the energy of the matrix wears out..."
Lena frowned!
She didn't finish her sentence, but everyone understood what she meant!
"I hate myself for being so weak!"
Edwin clenched his fists!
Grizzly looked indignant!
"I swear to protect Ms. Harris even at the cost of my life!"
Tekken declared, his eyes bloodshot as he looked at the enemies outside!
"A bloody battle won't stop us!"
"Even if I die, even if I self-destruct, I will bring one down with me!"
Jacob's subordinates all spoke out!
Kaley gazed at them, her eyes flashing with tears!
"If the matrix is broken, don't act recklessly. As Jacob's wife, I will take all the responsibility. Wait until Jacob returns and ask him to avenge me!"
Kaley said firmly.
"Ms. Harris, you must not do that!"
Edwin and others hurried to say, "They will hurt you over our dead bodies!"
Edwin, Grizzly, and the others respected and admired Jacob beyond measure.
Lena sighed. "Some of them might really want take revenge, but more of them are just coveting what we have. Our power has increased dramatically in such a short time, and Jacob is so powerful. They are both afraid of Jacob and envious of him. If they're determined to unfold our secrets, none of us can get rid of them!"
This was also why these people related to Jacob didn't try to find a way out!
Because all the major powers in the world had had their eyes on them.
No matter where they went or how they hid their real identities, they would not be able to run away.
Suddenly, a light flashed through Kaley's eyes!
She was stunned for a moment.
Then she said in excitement, "I ... I have a feeling that Jacob is back..."
"Huh?"
"Really?"
Everyone looked at Kaley.
Their faces were all filled with anticipation.
Kaley nodded with force.
"Before he left, Jacob has improved my physical condition with some special essence blood. And some of the blood was his. Besides, as his wife, I have a kind of karmic connection with him. In that instant, I seemed to have sensed him..."
Kaley said in a trembling voice.
Before she went into seclusion, Jacob had injected a lot of common knowledge about cultivation into her knowledge center and enlightened her. So Kaley had some understanding of it.
Everyone was overjoyed at her explanation.
Previously, everyone had believed that Jacob might not be dead.
But in the end, they were not sure about it!
Now that Kaley had said so, incredible and mysterious as it sounded, at the very least, it gave everyone hope!
"We're running out of its energy!"
Kawajima, one of the three at the Divinity Phases from Japan, cried out!
Joy was clear on everyone's face!
Once again, they charged the matrix simultaneously.
Countless Zhen Qi bombarded the Family Protection Matrix once again.
The matrix had been able to crush all of the attacks.
But this time, it can only dispel half of them.
The other half landed on the surface of it.
Rumble!
The thunderous sound rang out from above it.
Then the entire matrix trembled!
"Time's up!"
Laughing when seeing the shaking, Tanaka Ono, another late stage of Divinity Phase cultivator from Japan, made a move first.
Other cultivators also flashed towards the Bell's!
"Ah!"
But just as Ono was in the Bell's territory, the matrix lit up again.
Countless runes jumped out.
And Ono was surrounded.
His miserable scream was heard.
His body trembled!
Then his entire body began to melt.
Seeing him, other cultivators were shocked.
They could clearly sense that the matrix had exhausted all of its energy, but they were taken aback by the fact that it was still working.
So they retreated in no time.
Ono tried his best to withdraw, too.
"Kawajima, Kitano, save me!"
Ono cried out pitifully.
The two's faces changed, but they decided to help their friend.
That was when starling might erupting from the Bell's.
A figure was suddenly up in the sky.
"Ryder!"
Someone cried out in surprise.
The figure was recognized. He was Ryder Bell, the patriarch of the Bell family at the late stage of the Divinity Phase.
"How dare you!"
As a peak Divinity Phase cultivator, Kawajima gave out his potent energy to intimidate Ryder.
"What is it I don't dare to do? Now, I'll kill him in front of you. We'll see what you can do to me!"
Ryder snapped.
Following his words, a palm strike was launched towards Ono.
The surging Zhen Qi exploded wildly.
"Ah!"
Corroded by the energy of the runes, Ono's body was already incomplete. And he was much less powerful now.
So there was no way he could resist Ryder's deadly attack.
Ono let out a wretched shriek.
Then his eyes lost their vitality.
He was blown up by Ryder's palm strike.
He died here!
Standing outside the matrix, Kawajima glared at Ryder, his gaze murderous.
But for a moment, he didn't dare to step into the matrix.
They could feel that the energy of the matrix had been emptied. Otherwise, they wouldn't have tried to get into it. However, no one had expected that it would be able to perform such a weird assault.
Now, none of them was certain whether it still worked or not.
Killing the Bells aside. As long as they were restrained by the matrix and a frightening enemy like Ryder, the chances of them dying were high.
"I'll see who dares to come in!"
Standing in the matrix, Ryder howled.
There was a heaven-shaking killing desire emitted from him.
"A mere late-stage Divinity Phase cultivator is here bluffing?"
Thunder King William sneered.
Then he waved his hand.
A golden bolt of lightning appeared out of the sky.
In no time, it struck towards Ryder.
Ryder's face changed.
But he wasn't afraid. He took a step forward and took the attacked head-on!
Rumble!
The thunder burst!
The golden lightning exploded in the air.
A crack appeared on Ryder's fist, and blood splashed out!
But Ryder did not take a step back.
He had had Jacob as his master and had his body planted with the Demon Seed. So he could not retreat.
Kaley said that Jacob was not dead
and that he might return soon. Everyone was hoping to see him. If Ryder could delay for a while longer, Jacob might make it in time That was also why he would not retreat!
"If you think the matrix is ineffective, you can have a try. Whoever steps in will die!"
Ryder shouted again.
"Huh, it was just the aftermath of it. Do you really think I'm ignorant?"
A voice came suddenly.
An old man in a goatee and a Chinese tunic stepped out.
Everyone's eyes narrowed at the sight of him.
"That's Cole Webster, the Master of the Heavenly Pavilion!"
Someone cried out in incredulity.
Cole was recognized.
"How long has he been here?"
Sid's pupils shrank. Cole did not show up at the very beginning.
Regardless of whether they were at the Ullr Palace in the Triangle Region or at Jacob's, Cole had never been there, nor had the Heavenly Pavilion. But now, here Cole was.
Kawajima, William, and the others also seemed to be caught off guard.
But Cole was not only the Master of
the Heavenly Pavilion but also a peak Divinity Phase cultivator. With his impressive reputation, if he decided to get his slice now, no one
.n
could say no. They could only stand back and watch!
Shock aside, everyone was jubilant.
Since Cole had said so, the matrix must have been ineffective!
But none of them risked a move recklessly!
Cole tittered, ignoring the others.
He took the lead and headed straight for the Bell's.
Meanwhile, he casually waved his hand.
A few sharp streaks of Zhen Qi were shot up.
They were so mighty that they were capable of splitting open any huge mountain!
The Zhen Qi stroke straight towards the surroundings of the Bell's.
Rumble!
Soon, explosions erupted from all directions.
Inside the Bell's, Lena, Edwin, and the others' expressions changed.
"Goddamn that old turtle from Heavenly Pavilion..."
Edwin gritted his teeth.
Cole saw through where the jades and flags of the matrix were placed.
And he destroyed them.
Now the matrix was incomplete.
Lena scowled at Cole with ice in her eyes.
Heavenly Pavilion had a deep understanding of matrix.
Lena had been glad that the Heavenly Pavilion folks had never presented.
But she hadn't expected their Master to pop up at such a critical moment.☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
