"This is bad! Master is beating Morgott and Yianni to a pulp! They're going to die if we don't save them!"
Marius stumbled out of a beam of light that had landed inside the Anonymous Space. He shouted anxiously, as if he had just escaped a catastrophe.
The divine beings and superior cultivators huddled together turned their eyes to Marius, strangely, no one said anything.
It wasn't that they intended to ignore their comrades in distress; they had genuinely run out of ideas and options.
For days, all of them, men and women alike, had been brutally beaten by the crazed James countless times. Most were severely wounded since James didn't hold back at all.
For instance, Hankin had lost an arm that had yet to grow back. At the moment, he was treating a wound inflicted by James when the latter cut off his ear with the Wuia Demon-Slayer Sword.
Yiulia's hair had been pulled out. Her clothes were tattered, and her face was disfigured by severe swelling and bruises. Her body was also covered in multiple bloody wounds.
Thea was the only one who hadn't suffered any injuries. It was as if she was the cure to James' condition. No matter how angry and violent James became, he never laid a finger on Thea. Shockingly, he would even le Thea beat him up.
Therefore, the others saw Thea as their savior. If she weren't here, these divine beings and top cultivators would never have survived James' attacks in the first place.
"Thea, should we save them?" Marius looked at Thea since the others remained silent.
"Nope!" Thea narrowed her eyes. "I told them not to rile him up. Yet, they thought they could handle him. It's clear now who's stronger."
Marius was rendered speechless by her words. Meanwhile, the others exchanged furtive glances and noticed the awkward looks on each other's faces.
They couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed upon hearing those remarks. It was because they noticed how their cultivation and powers would improve each time they got beaten by James and healed their injuries. That was why they kept challenging James, despite always losing pathetically.
Just then, the sounds of two people screaming frantically echoed through the space. What seemed like two balls of fire came flying from a distance and crashed onto the ground behind Thea's group, kicking up thick clouds of dust.
"Ack!" Yiulia scrunched her nose as she tried to brush off the dust on her face. "They're kicking up too much of a ruckus!" "Cough!" Hankin cleared his throat. "Yianni! Morgott! Are you alright?" Unfortunately, there was no response. When the dust settled, they could see two huge craters where the balls had landed. Yet, that was all they could see from where they stood. At that moment, a beam of reddish-gold light flashed before everyone's eyes. James appeared the next instant.
"Who's next?"
Marius, Harkin, and Yiulia flinched at the threatening voice. While they maintained calm looks on their faces', Taiyi and Yasmina were inwardly nervous too. Thea slowly got to her feet and cast a blast at James, who was levitating mid-air.
Boom!
James appeared completely unharmed, despite taking the hit directly.
"James Caden, you're being too much!"
Thea snored and teleported toward him. She re-emerged in front of o
Jame and started throwing powerful punches at him nonstop. Still-James stood there, looking completely unfazed.
