Journey Of A Legend

Chapter 216: An Unexpected Event

"Now what should I do?"

Watching as William was approaching them like a crazy bull, Greg was about to his Fourth Flow to stop him, when suddenly a flash appeared from the side.

*Swish!*

*BAM!*

From out of nowhere, Joe's figure appeared next to William's head, and with a powerful strike, he kicked him right in the face, making his massive body to fly to the side instantly.

Seeing Joe here, Greg glanced to the side instantly, but the moment he saw that Mila was doing perfectly fine he sighed with relief.

"Thanks for the help.", said Greg with a nod as he watched Joe stepping closer to him.

Joe looking at Greg then at Jonathan, he nodded and said, "I saw that you were in trouble, so I decided to come and help. Also, Mila said she could easily take care of things there on her own, so..."

While he said that, suddenly a huge explosion occurred in the distance, making him and the others to turn their heads toward the direction from where the explosion has come.

"It seems those three are in a very heated fight.", said Emma, as she looked saw the explosions coming from where the three experts were fighting.

Greg seeing the hundreds of small dots which were obviously Clouds clones, he turned his stare away and said, "I am sure that the two will skillfully beat that guy, so let's take care of the things here first."

*TREMBLE!!!*

And just as he said that the place where William got blasted away shook like crazy, and soon, his colossal being emerged from below the debris.

*ROOAAR!!*

With a loud uproar, William stood up slowly with several wide-open wounds all over his body and looked toward the direction where he got booted in the face.

However, the moment he saw that the one hitting him was none other than Joe, his expression instantly turned crazy.

"YOU!!"

In the beginning, he decided to ignore Joe, because he first wanted to pay his debt back to Greg, but now that he got kicked by him right in the face, his decision changed.

"You will pay for this!!"

To be fair, the connection between the Scepter Family and the Dia Family was not a friendly relationship at all. To put it simply, they hated each other from the very beginning.

Because both of them were in the same region, the resources were not split at all. Each Family wanted the most, no matter what it was. 

And because of this rivalry, as time went on their hate toward the other one didn't lessen but became even stronger.

If it weren't for the sudden rise of the Dia Family and the surprise attack from the Clanwing Family, the Scepters would have been already declared a war on Joe's family.

So this hate, which was already seeping inside William, instantly broke out, making him want to kill Joe, no matter what.

And what was the best thing for him, was that he had the perfect chance right now.

*ROOAAR!!*

So with that in mind, he screamed high up toward the sky, and just like before, he started to run toward Joe and the others with crazy speed.

Joe seeing that William's speed was way faster than the first time, glanced at Greg and said, "Just leave him to me."

"Sure.", replied Greg with a bod as he watched Jie walking toward William with a calm posture.

Laura on the side looked at Greg and asked a bit worriedly, "Will he be alright? He is only on the Calamity rank!"

Hearing Laura's worried question, Greg just smiled and said, "He will be perfectly fine. Just watch."

And instantly as he said that, suddenly Joe's presence broke right into the Ascender rank, making Laura to look at him with surprise.

"Ho-.", started to say Laura, but before she could have finished her sentence, Joe's Ascension Ring appeared below his feet, making his presence to reach God rank under a single second.

*BOOM!*

As this happened, with a booming sound, an ancient-looking cloak which was made out of pure thunder appeared around Joe's body.

"I don't plan to kill you, but I will still break a few of your bones, so sorry about that in advance."

The moment Laura heard this from Joe, she looked speechless, but only for a second.

It was because the next moment as Joe stepped forward, thunder appeared from the skies and hit him on the head, making his whole body to vanish into thin air instantly.

*BOOM!!*

*TREMBLE!!*

Just like when thunder breaking out from a chaotic storm, Joe appeared before William like lightning and hit him powerfully right in the stomach.

*BAM!*

Joe's punch was so strong, that the massive and 5 meters high William's body got bent over, and faster than a bullet, his whole being exploded to the distance.

*KA-BOOM!*

Like a bomb getting detonated, William's body crashed into huge ruin debris, creating a massive crater instantly below his body.

"Bleargh!"

While coughing up a huge amount of blood, William was about to stand up, but unfortunately to his surprise, Joe was not finished with his attacks yet.

"Eh?"

Right above his head, several black clouds formed, painting the clear blue sky instantly into ash black color.

William seeing this widened his eyes and wanted to move, however, he acted too late.

*BOOM!*

Like Thor's hammer, a thick, almost a pillar-wide thunderbolt came down with heavy sight and struck William right in the middle of his chest.

"!!"

Laura seeing this looked shocked, and now knew that what Joe said before was nothing arrogant at all. With suck power, it would be still a surprise if William didn't have a few broken bones, let alone dying.

"White Soul Stones has truly different powers.", mumbled Laura quietly.

And just as she said those words, on her side, suddenly a familiar presence broke out, making her widen her eyes with surprise instantly.

"He succeeded!", thought Greg with a smile too, as he watched as Jonathan's Ascender presence finally came back while his shrinking body slowly started to heal again.

However Greg's smile suddenly turned to shock as he noticed that Jonathan not only got his original self back, but he tried to breakthrough right into the Gid rank.

"He is nuts!", thought Greg with wide eyes as he watched this sight unfold before his very own eyes.

Knowing the strength of each key, anyone trying to touch them, let alone using its power to their advantage would die instantly. No exception.

However, right now, Jonathan not only unsealed his power with the key's help, but he attempted a try to break right into the God rank. Greg seeing this didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

"Luckily the key has infinite power because if not, I wouldn't know what I should do if he consumed the whole key.", thought Greg as he watched Jonathan's growing presence.

However, as this happened, suddenly the sky shook again, making Greg and the others to raise their head up to see what happened.

Squinting his eyes, Greg tried to figure out what was happening, but suddenly several scary presences appeared in the air, flying right toward their direction.

"Now what?", thought Greg with a deep frown as he watched as three people appeared behind his head in the air.

"Greg Hyde! Give back what you have stolen or bear the consequences!"

Recognizing the familiar voice, Greg raised his head up, only to see Carter above him.

Hearing the voice, every member from the Scepter family looked toward the man, however, the moment they recognized who he was, they stopped attacking, while their faces became palm instantly.

Even Joe stopped striking William with his thunder and glanced toward the man above Greg and the others in the air.

"A member from the Voodoo Family? Why?"

Not understanding what was happening, Joe took a quick glance at William, but after seeing he was completely knocked out by his power, he nodded and run toward Greg.

Greg, who was surprised by the sudden arrival of Carter, glanced at Jonathan who was still under his breakthrough, and smiled wryly.

"Nice to meet you aga-."

"I don't care what you want to say, so don't waste my time and give back the key you have stolen from me."

Seeing the angered expression of Carter, Greg knew he was not in a position to talk.

Carter seeing that Greg was still silent, grunted u satisfactorily, and looking at the behind him he nodded.

"Except of those there, go and kill everyone here."

"Yes Sir!", answered the two behind Carter in unison and like a flash, their bodies vanished into thin air.

However, the next moment they have appeared, blood followed their action.

With one flash after another, they killed one member after another from the Scepter Family, turning the already chaotic ruins into a battlefield filled with blood and torn limbs.

Greg and the others seeing this froze up instantly and wanted to do something, however, just before they could have done anything, Carter's cold voice sounded from the air.

"If you try to move even an inch, I will tear your limbs off."
