The sudden appearance of Alex and Luna stunned the two Returning Sword Sect members. They had certainly popped up in a surprising way. However, once they’d taken a good look at Alex and Luna’s apparent cultivation stages, they let their guard down.
To them, Alex hadn’t even reached Nascent Soul.
On the other hand, although Luna appeared stronger than Alex, she was nothing more than a mere ant to them. They could simply destroy her with a wave of their hands.
“How dare you, a mere little Core Formation, butt in on our sect’s issues? Do you have a death wish?” One of the members, five meters away from Alex, said with a fierce expression.
Upset, he wanted to finish off Hailey quickly, yet these random people came out of nowhere, obviously looking for trouble. This put them at risk of being found out by their sect leader.
“Returning Sword Sect?” Alex looked at Hailey sadly.
‘To think that such a beautiful lady would be beaten up like this…’
Her last sentence, especially, caused Alex’s heart to quiver.
He was burning with anger, and although the rage kept piling up, he appeared as calm as a body of still water. He then lifted his head and saw the tablet hanging over the door.
“Hahaha!” Alex laughed out. The more he laughed, the colder his expression became.
The Returning Sword Sect member was instantly triggered. “Where did this dumbass come frotn? Stop putting on your little psychotic act in front of our courtyard. You’re insulting our sect, and you deserve to die!”
Alex’s laughs halted. His eyes shot a cold glare as his deadly aura felt like it could actually kill.
“I’m standing in front of my own house laughing, and for that, I deserve death?”
“How are you people going to pay then? You took over my house and chased my family away. What’s more, you even beat up and tried to kill my sworn sister in the yard.”
Since Luna was a rare beauty, her charm was even stronger than Hailey. Moreover, she was a cultivator. Hence, the man had automatically listed her as his prey and possession, and he didn’t target her.
Luna looked at the man’s attack yet continued to remain calm and unwavering. She believed that Alex could kill the Human Immortal easily.
“Die!” Alex didn’t even move a single step as he faced the attack. He merely grabbed onto Hailey with one hand while he raised his other, pointing to the tip of the sword with one finger.
“What? You’re just countering the attack with one finger?”
“Do you really have a death wish?”
Both disciples were completely stunned. They thought Alex had been stricken by fear. One wouldn’t do something so mind- boggling if they were sane.
‘Does he think he’s some Heavenly King?’
