Chapter 1572: The Uncrowned Lord
The uncrowned Lord and Maurice had completely different auras. Maurice felt like a queen, easy to connect with, and had the grandeur of a leader, but in reality, she was extremely violent. Having won a person's heart, she was willing to sacrifice them without hesitation when necessary.
An uncrowned Lord was a simple warrior who was willing to die with honor. He despised plots and intrigues. After Maurice obtained this power, he could have immediately taken control of it, but he didn't, and even went out in person, announcing his existence.
If Maurice was worthy of this power, the Uncrowned Lord would leave her body on its own and eventually dissipate. Unfortunately, Maurice disappointed him. She was willing to sacrifice everything for power and strength.
The way she gained this power immediately displeased the Uncrowned Lord and caused him to start despising her, but even with this power, she was eventually beaten to the point where she began to doubt her sword, which greatly angered the Uncrowned Lord.
His strength wasn't something that a weak witch like her could reveal in all its glory.
The uncrowned Lord took Maurice's body for himself? From the outside, it might seem that this was the case, but in reality it was different. Maurice didn't pass his test, so she couldn't keep his power.
And so, this creature began to slowly walk towards Su Xiao. Their auras were on completely different levels. If in the past, Morisa was like a squire who carried her knight's sword everywhere, then this creature was the knight, the real owner of that sword.
*A clang!*
The Uncrowned Lord's sword shone with a golden light.
As he casually swung his sword, a golden ray of light immediately stabbed into the castle wall.
With a clang, the golden light that hit the wall didn't pierce through it, but began to quickly merge with it.
Seeing this flash, Su Xiao knew that they were on a different level.
This creature was a much better swordsman than he was.
Small cracks appeared on the Uncrowned Lord's shoulders, but he only glanced at them and then ignored them.
Su Xiao took a deep breath and slowly walked towards the creature. The distance between them gradually narrowed.
When they were only ten meters apart, they both disappeared at the same time.
*Clang-clang-clang...*
The two swords began to collide with each other.
*Boom!*
The floor was bursting at the seams with each crash.
Su Xiao twisted his longsword and deflected the blade of the Uncrowned Lord's sword. Taking advantage of the opportunity, he swung his sword, and the blade immediately went straight for the throat of the Uncrowned Lord.
The uncrowned Lord narrowed his eyes, lowered his sword, and with a click, placed the guard of his sword under attack, along with kicking Su Xiao's stomach.
When his foot hit Su Xiao's body, he knew that something was wrong.
Shards of blue crystals fell to the floor. Su Xiao's attack also missed its target. He wanted to repeat what he had done with Maurice earlier, but the result was very different.
His attack was only able to slice open the ear of the Uncrowned Lord.
As Qing Gang Yin's energy entered his body, the Uncrowned Lord smiled.
He was indeed the heir to the past that he had been waiting for for so long.
While the Uncrowned Lord was fighting, Maurice's consciousness was in his body. At first, she tried to resist, but when she realized the futility of her struggle, she began to watch the fight.
And now, Maurice finally understood why the Uncrowned Lord had said that she wasn't worthy of this power.
Su Xiao flew back a bit, then stopped. Several streaks of light that were more than a meter long immediately appeared around him, and when the Uncrowned Lord clenched his hand, all of these streaks immediately flew at him.
They appeared too suddenly and without any warning, and the speed of their flight was too great. He didn't even have time to create energy shields.
*Poof-poof-poof...*
Four streaks pierced through his body. Two of them were buried in the legs, another in the left arm and one in the stomach.
After biting the strip that was stuck in his hand, he pulled it out and spat it out, but at that moment, the Uncrowned Lord immediately rushed towards him.
The lock didn't stop shaking until ten minutes later.
Su Xiao was covering his neck with one hand, actively gasping for air, and a light blue energy was constantly flowing through his body.
Blood slowly trickled down the Dragon Flash.
The uncrowned Lord didn't look much better. His body was covered in cracks, and there were several intersecting cuts on his chest and stomach.
As for the light blue energy, it was indicative of the activated Time of the demon hunt. An uncrowned Lord couldn't just be called strong. He was on a completely different level.
Su Xiao now only had 260 mana left, but fortunately, he still had 30 seconds of Demon Hunting Time, so he didn't have to worry about mana, but his body problems didn't go away.
Right now, he was certain that this creature had at least a level 20 or higher "Sword Grandmaster" skill.
They were both in very bad shape. If Su Xiao hadn't activated the Demon Hunt Time earlier, he probably wouldn't have been able to stay alive by now. For a full 20 seconds after activating the skill, he repeatedly teleported and tried to cut down the creature, but each time he managed to respond to it. If it wasn't for the endless supply of mana, Su Xiao would have died long ago by his sword.
*Click~*
A crack appeared on the Uncrowned Lord's chest. When he saw her, he shook his head.
— What a pity, we'll meet again if fate wills it.
The two meter tall creature suddenly began to fall.
When his body touched the floor, he quickly began to change and eventually became Maurice.
Yes, it really was the same Maurice,
When her head hit the floor, she immediately opened her eyes and wanted to get up, but unfortunately, due to the huge amount of injuries, she couldn't even move.
— Hunter, let's talk...
With a whoosh, the blade pierced through Maurice's neck.
He stuck his sword in the floor, caught his breath, and looked at the witch.
— Wait, wait, I'm still...
The blade pierced her neck again.
A few seconds later, when Su Xiao saw the murder notice, he pushed her body aside and sat down on the floor with a crash.
All of his wounds were bleeding, five of his ribs were broken, both of his legs were pierced several times, his lower abdomen was a mess, and his left arm didn't respond to commands at all.
But compared to Su Xiao, the huntress he summoned was even more pitiful — her Uncrowned Lord had chopped her into more than a dozen pieces.
The uncrowned Lord was a very powerful being. If he wasn't limited by the limits, Su Xiao wouldn't be a match for him at all.
During the battle, his body was constantly bursting at the seams. All these cracks that looked like ceramic cracks were the most obvious reaction to the rejection of the soul and body.
After confirming that there were no threats around, Su Xiao lay down on the floor and lit a cigarette. Although he didn't know where this Uncrowned Lord came from, none of this mattered. The main thing was that he had won.
After being defeated, the Uncrowned Lord didn't say anything shameful. All sorts of excuses would only try to hide his defeat.
Bubtney suddenly appeared nearby and limped over to Su Xiao. There was a deep cut on his ribs. Earlier, he bit the Uncrowned Lord's buttock with an extremely ferocious look. Su Xiao remembered the dazed expression on the Uncrowned Lord's face very well, but for this bite, he was almost able to split the Mumbles into two parts.
