Evil Samurai In Cultivation World

Chapter 76: The Finale (2)

"Oh, I agree that the Academy and the Royal Family aren't exactly friendly. However, as someone who cares deeply for my country and its citizens, I do believe that the safety of my country and its people comes first."

The Third Elder threw his glance over at the hooded figure and spoke with an indifferent voice.

"Third Elder! What are you trying to say?" The hooded figure glared at the Third Elder, furious upon hearing his words.

"Oh? It seems that you did not understand. Very well, I shall make it simple for you," The Third Elder's voice was crystal clear and full of strength. "To ensure the safety of Argria and its citizens, the Golden Avarice Academy has decided to let go of our past grudges and join hands with the Royal Family!"

...

"Ohoho! Now this is unexpected. I certainly didn't expect the Golden Avarice Academy to team up with the Royal Family, considering the bad blood between them. Truly unbelievable!"

"Wonderful, simply wonderful! The academies and the royal family never got along with each other, so never in my dreams would I have thought they would team up one day. I'm guessing the Prince's words made them rethink the situation, and figured out that supporting the Royal Family is the path to safety!"

"This feels like the start of something big! I can't believe that the Prince was able to convince the elders of the Golden Avarice Academy to support him. He's truly the King that Argria deserves!"

The citizens were surprised to see the Third Elder of the Golden Avarice Academy lend a hand to the new king, as none of them had expected this to happen. However, none of the spectators were complaining. After all, the more support the new king gets, the better his chances were at winning against the ones who were terrorizing them.

"Third Elder! To think that you would express your support for the Monarchy so openly! I didn't expect you to be this spineless! I bet they paid you and your pals a lot of money just to get your support, huh? Well, we're not going to let you win! The Revolution shall continue, and we'll vent our anger on you!"

The hooded figure burst into an evil laughter, gnashing his teeth after speaking, and one could see the gruesome hatred he had for both the monarchy and the third elder leaking out from his eyes.

"You all are the spineless ones here, scum! Throwing away our country's hopes for the sake of your ideology! As if I'll let you do that!" The Third Elder turned to the hooded figure and said. "What do you say, Prince Blake Bancroft? Are you willing to accept the Golden Avarice academy's help?"

"Grudges are for those who insist that they are owed something; forgiveness, however, is for those who are substantial enough to move on." The Prince looked at the Third Elder and replied. "Life is too short to be spent in nursing animosity or registering wrongs, and therefore I, Prince Blake Bancroft, will gladly welcome a new beginning to our relationship."

"You damn money-grubbers! To think all you people would care about are money and power! You are all enemies of the Revolution, and you shall be purged from the face of the earth!" 

Realizing that things weren't looking so good for them, the hooded figure quickly spoke, and the Third Elder gave him an indifferent look.

"Pathetic words from a soon to be dead man. I'll send you to the underworld in a few seconds!"

The Third Elder shouted, and his aura turned murderous!

Bzzz!

Without hesitating, he forcefully punched out and an extremely dazzling and enormous crimson colored palm manifested in the air carrying a huge amount of spiritual energy, and was shrouding toward the hooded figures.

"Don't think you can defeat me just because you are an elder of the Golden Avarice Academy! We'll let you know how powerful we are!"

The leader of the hooded figure spoke with an angry expression. Since he couldn't avoid a confrontation, then there was nothing left to do. If they want a fight; he'll give them a fight!

Swish!

With a roar, the four hooded figures pressed their right foot forward in unison and unleashed their spiritual energy, emitting powerful golden beams from their palms!

Bzzz!

The four golden beams connected with each other and formed a rectangular golden shield!

"Shoot!!"

The leader of the hooded figure shouted, as the giant rectangular shield surged upwards, and the two attacks collided, creating a tremendous explosion due to the amount of force and energy expelled!

BOOM!

The four hooded figures took a few steps back before stabilizing their bodies, as dust and debris filled the air!

"Hmph! Looks like you do have some skills! But if you think little tricks are going to help you get out of this situation, then you're sorely mistaken!"

The cold voice of the Third Elder echoed throughout the dust filled air, and his figure burst through the smoke clouds, heading towards the hooded figures.

There wasn't a large distance between them and the Third Elder was incredibly fast! Within a split second, he had already appeared right in front of the leader of the hooded figure.

"What?" The leader's eyes went wide and he simply cried out in shock. He couldn't believe how fast the Third Elder was!

"Take this! Star Flaming Strike!!" The Third Elder's eyes flickered with cruelty and he immediately unleashed another palm strike, aiming for the leader's chest.

"Leader! Nooo!!" The three hooded figures yelled out and they stretched out their palms right in front of their leader's chest and began drawing; unleashing a mysterious pentagram in order to block the attack of the Third Elder.

BOOM!

The star flaming strike burst through the pentagram and collided with the leader of the hooded figures, who was sent flying backwards like a kite that had its line cut off and crashed onto the ground over a hundred meters away, causing a large crater to appear.

AAAAH!!!

Miserable screams ran throughout the air, as the three hooded figures stared at what remained of their hands. Even though they had tried their hardest to block the attack, there was no way they could withstand the Third Elder's frightening palm strike. As a result, their palms collided with the Third Elder's attack and instantly exploded.

"THIRD ELDER!! How dare you try and stop the revolution!" The leader roared loudly as he struggled to climb up from the ground, and spit out a mouthful of blood.

This was an insult, an unbearable insult to the Revolution!

However, the leader's chest was now torn up and he didn't even have the strength to stand properly anymore. 

"How touching! Because of your friends, you actually managed to survive my strike! I'm impressed by your loyalty to your cause. However, this is as far as you'll go!!" The Third Elder suddenly shouted out, and his body then flashed toward the leader of the hooded figures.

"Leader! Quick, we have to do something!" The three hooded figures, who saw the Third Elder move towards their leader, tried to intervene, but before they could do anything, three silhouettes appeared on their sides!

"Don't tell me you forgot about me, did you?" Prince Blake Bancroft shouted loudly, and without hesitating, he raised his sword high up into the air and swung it down from top to bottom, slicing one of the hooded figures in half.

"I'll take care of this one! You can take the other, Senior Beldon!" Claude yelled out, as he arrived in front of one of the figures in the blink of an eye. 

The Third Elder's attack not only destroyed their hands, but also weakened them considerably. Under normal circumstances, it would have been really difficult for Claude to fight against these hooded figures, but thankfully, they had lost most of their combat strength. Thus, these hooded figures were currently no match for Claude.

Whoosh!

Claude wielded his katana, and the tremble of its spiritual energy shattered the air around it while slashing forward!

Aargh!!

The hooded figure let out a loud scream as he couldn't even defend against it, causing his entire body to explode!

At the same time, the Third Elder had already appeared in front of the leader, and grabbed his head and simply crushed it!

Claude gently landed on the ground and calmly looked at Senior Beldon, who had also successfully defeated his opponent.

"Prince, are you all right?" the Third Elder moved towards Prince Blake Bancroft and asked, as he extended his hand towards him.

"I appreciate your concern, Third Elder but I am perfectly fine," The Prince said with a smile, accepting the Third Elder's help and pulling himself up.

Both Claude and Senior Beldon also moved closer to the Prince, and the four of them walked towards the crowd of people who had been watching the battle!

"You have saved us all, King! You are our savior!!"

"My GodUsing his strength to protect the citizens instead of trying to swindle them! My King, you are already an improvement over our previous one!"

"Long live King Blake Bancroft! Long live King Blake Bancroft!"

All the citizens that were present in Josenheim burst into cheers upon seeing the King and his allies appearing unscathed. They were all looking at their new king in the most respectful manner. Because of his actions, they were now ready to welcome a new era.
