Ch. 2951..2960
He wanted to sacrifice himself so that Leon could take the Southern Boss and the Western Boss down with the Potential Energy Force.
To his bewilderment, Leon ran out of Potential Energy Force.
This meant that he was not capable of defeating the Southern Boss and the Western Boss for the Thompsons.
Still, that did not mean they were completely out of hope.
Though the Southern Boss and the Western Boss injured Arthur, he was still capable of fighting.
So long as he returned to Leon's side, his strength at the Peak Almighty State along with all the Dragon Guards Leon brought with him should be sufficient to help them retreat safely even if they could not defeat the Southern Boss and the Western Boss.
In conclusion, he dared not dream of getting Leon to eliminate the Southern Boss and the Western Boss now that he no longer possessed any Potential Energy Force.
For now, the priority would be to retreat safely as it was a far better outcome than the utter destruction of the Thompsons.
"Leon, I will be the one to exchange hostage. I'll warn you, though. If you dare to play tricks, I'll make sure you die miserably!" the Southern Boss said and strode forward with Arthur.
"Perfect! That's exactly what I meant to say!" Leon sneered as he saw through the Southern Boss's thoughts.
He was a righteous man and never considered playing any tricks in the exchange of hostages.
The Southern Boss, on the other hand, was despicable and vicious.
Leon himself was attacked a few times during the exchange of hostages, so he already knew the Southern Boss bore evil intentions for proposing to help the Western Boss.
Still, Leon did not care.
His overall strength reached the Semi-Saint State. If the Southern Boss behaved well, nothing bad would happen.
However, if the Southern Boss dared to play tricks or attack him, he swore he would give the Southern Boss a miserable end.
"Chandler, hand Felton to me. I will exchange hostages with the Southern Boss!" Leon said and grabbed Felton from Chandler.
He also took a Dragon Pill in secret, leveling up to the advanced Golden Core Phase.
This is equivalent to the Intermediate or even the Advanced Almighty State.
Partnered with the powerfut defense oFthe Mirror of Sovereign, even martial artists in the Semi-Saint State would not be able to harm him.
The Southern Boss was merely in the Peak Almighty State and would not be a threat, he dared to attack, Leon could take this opportunity to destroy the Southern Boss.
"Mister Wolf, the Southern Boss is cunning so be careful when you exchange hostages," Angus said worriedly.
Naturally, the Thompsons and the women were all worried as well.
Renee felt especially anxious. Leon never wanted her to come along and she came anyway.
Upon learning that both the Western Boss and the Southern Boss reached the Peak Almighty State, she was both shocked and worried for Leon.
"Yeah, I know! Don't worry. I'll be fine,” Leon smiled, before grabbing Felton and walking toward the Southern Boss.
The Ex Husbands Revenge Chapter 2952-Leon grabbed Leon and stopped when he was a few meters away from the Southern Boss.
"Leon, on the count of three, we will each release our hostage! How about that?" the Southern Boss said.
"Sure, no problem." Leon nodded and stared at him wearily.
"Three, two, one," the Southern Boss said and let go of Arthur.
Seeing as the Southern Boss did not play any tricks, Leon kept his promise and let go of Felton.
He then reached out, intending to grab Arthur, all the while firing his spiritual energy in case the Southern Boss attacked abruptly.
"Kid, die!" Once Leon released Felton, the Southern Boss sneered.
Just as Leon predicted, this was the perfect chance for the Southern Boss to attack and he was not about to miss it.
He launched a powerful attack and charged toward Leon.
"You must have a death wish!” Leon narrowed his eyes sharply.
He knew that the Southern Boss did not mean well and was prepared for it.
He then pointed a finger and launched the Earthly Plunder. A powerful blade of energy formed at the tip of his finger and was sent straight at the Southern Boss.
However, before the attack reached its target, Leon soon realized that something was off.
The Southern Boss’s attack was just a feign and he never actually fired up his energy. This was merely to tempt Leon into attacking.
"Idiot! You are no match for me!" The Southern Boss sneered.
He knew that Leon poisoned daggers and dared not to sneak up on him, in case he fell victim to Leon's tricks.
He swiftly changed position to avoid Leon's Earthly Plunder and charged toward Arthur, intending to destroy him with a single blow.
The Southern Boss had similar thoughts as Arthur.
At the moment, the Thompsons and Leon were at a disadvantage. Hence, Leon was likely planning to get Arthur back by handing Felton over. That way, he could work with Arthur to fight the Southern Boss and the Western Boss.
This was the only chance for them to win.
If the Southern Boss truly let Arthur go, Arthur's strength in the Peak Almighty State along with Leon and the Dragon Guards from the Western region, it would be extremely difficult for him and the Western Boss to eliminate Leon and the Thompsons.
This was hardly what he wanted.
Therefore, he proposed to exchange hostages in the Western Boss'sm place. He intended tò eliminate Arthur all along.
With Arthur gone, Leon and the Thompsons would be vulnerable.
"How vicious!" Arthur was taken aback.
When he was captured by the Southern Boss, his power was sealed.
Now that the Southern Boss was suddenly attacking, he had ng means to resist or glodge land dould only watch as the Southern Boss approached. The content is on En.novelxo.com! Read the latest chapter there!
"Oh, no!" Leon paled.
He thought that the Southern Boss meant to attack him and was fully prepared for it. Tolhis bewilderment, the Southern Boss's true intention was to take Arthur down, not him.
This completely caught him by surprise.
Not daring to waste a single second, he immediately reached out his palm and chased after the Southern Boss.
The Ex Husbands Revenge Chapter 2953-"How swift!" The Southern Boss did not expect Leon to be so swift and his expression darkened.
He thought that by catching Leon off-guard and attacking Arthur in the chest, he could surely finish Arthur off.
However, Leon reacted far quicker than he anticipated and blocked his attack.
It seemed impossible for him to finish Arthur off at this moment, so he gave up on that and moved his palm downward, slamming it against Arthur’s Energy Sea Point.
Baam!
Arthur was instantly sent flying and slammed hard against the ground.
He spewed blood and paled as soon as he landed.
The Energy Sea Point was located below the Energy Core and the source of true energy for martial artists. The Southern Boss's attack destroyed his power.
Thankfully, it was not a crucial point and this did not kill him, which was the silver lining of the situation.
"Haha!" The Southern Boss burst into laughter.
Though he did not manage to finish Arthur off, he managed to destroy his power, and that worked the same way.
Without Arthur's help, Leon and the remaining Thompsons would not be a threat.
"Southern Boss, you despicable scum! Die!" Leon was furious.
Due to his misjudgment, he was one step too slow in stopping the Southern Boss's attack on Arthur.
There was no way that he could ever let this go.
He switched position and charged at the Southern Boss at the speed of lightning.
"Leon, get off your high horse. I'll settle the scores with you later!" The Southern Boss sneered.
His plan to attack Arthur succeeded. He was supposed to exchange hostage with Leon and ensure the safety of Felton, or he would not be able to answer to the Western Boss.
Knowing when to retreat, he backed away from Leon's attack and grabbed Felton, before hurrying back to the Western Boss and the Fermers.
"Damn it!" Leon's expression darkened.
Though he already saved Arthur from the Southern Boss, the Southern Boss was far too despicable and destroyed Arthur's power.
Such a despicable act deeply enraged Leon and he desperately wished he could destroy the Southern Boss immediately to avenge Arthur.
However, Arthur was severely injured and Leon had to suppress his anger to help Arthur up, before taking him back to Angus and the others.
"Uncle, are you alright?"
"Are you okay?"
Angus and the others asked in concern.
They saw the Southern Boss attacking Arthur, but they were m standing in the distance and only saw Arthur spewing blood after taking the blow.
"I'm fine! But the Southern Boss destroyed my power "Afthur said!
through the paif. His face was pale and his eyes were filled with despair.
A martial artist's power was crucial to them and the fact that the Soythern Boss took his poweraway so despicably was worse than killing him.
Instantly, his heart was heavy with resentment toward the Southern Boss, but there was nothing he could do.
The Ex Husbands Revenge Chapter 2954-"What? Damn the Southern Boss! He was once a ruler of the underground community. How unbecoming."
Angus and the others were shocked and furious when they learned that the Southern Boss destroyed Arthur’s power.
Leon proposed to exchange hostages and they should all act with decency.
The Southern Boss even warned Leon not to play any tricks.
Leon acted honorably, yet the Southern Boss broke his words and took Arthur’s power away.
This was extremely shameless of him.
"Elder Thompson, Angus, don't worry. Though Elder Thompson's power was taken, I can treat him. Once this is over, I can restore his power," Leon consoled them when he saw the despair on their faces.
The Angel’s Fruit restored one's energy core and cured trauma to the Energy Sea Point.
When Iris's grandfather had his power taken away, Leon treated him with the Angel's Fruit.
Though he ran out of Angel's Fruit, he still had Cleansing Pills.
Cleansing Pills were made from Angel's Fruit. They could enhance the talent of younger martial artists and work perfectly in restoring one's energy core as well.
With the Cleansing Pill and some rare herbs, he should be able to cure the damage to Arthur’s Energy Sea Point.
"Mister Wolf, you can restore his power?"
"That's great!"
Angus and the others were overjoyed.
The despair Arthur felt was instantly replaced by hope.
However, they soon recalled the devastating situation they were in and their hearts sank.
"Mister Wolf, the Southern Boss, and the Western Boss were both in the Peak Almighty State, Now thal uncle lost his power, it would be hard for US to get past this crisis," Angus and the others sighed with heavy hearts.
They shared Arthur's thoughts.
If Arthur's power was intact, the Thompsons and Leon along with his strengtk in the Reak Almighty State should guarantee that they could retreat safely at the very least.
However, Arthur had his power taken and Leon no longer possessed any Potential Energy Force.
It seemed impossible for them to defeat the Southern Boss and the Western Boss.
If they were not mistaken, they would all perish today and that seemed to be the only possible outcome.
If they could not even get past the current crisis, there was napoint in Leonrestoring Arthur's power.
The Ex Husbands Revenge Chapter 2955-"It's fine. They aren't much of a threat! I'll go destroy them and put an end to this right now!" Leon scoffed with a malicious look in his eyes.Now that Arthur was safe, he no longer had any concern and it was time for him to settle the scores.Without further delay, he strode toward the Southern Boss and the Western Boss."Destroy US? How arrogant! You worked with the Thompsons to bring the Spears down. Today, I'll show you what the consequences of that it!” The Southern Boss was enraged by Leon's tone.With a resentful expression, he strode forward to face Leon and the Thompsons and retaliate for what they did to the Spears.The Western Boss shared his feelings.Now that Felton was rescued, he no longer had any concerns.He gestured for Felton to stand back like Rodney, while he led the Fermers to follow the Southern Boss, intending to fight Leon and the Thompsons.Instantly, tension rose and a battle was about to break out."Hang on!" The Dragon Guards, who remained silent so far, spoke up.Apart from Fletcher and Howard, an old man in his seventies stood forward. His presence was authoritative and one could easily tell that he was formidable.This man was Levi Neathenwood, a third-level Platinum Dragon Guard from the western region and he was in the Advanced Almighty State.At the moment, Mister Orpwood was the stronger at the Peak Almighty State, and below him were two third-level Platinum Dragon Guards in the Advanced Almighty state. Levi was one of them.Since Mister Orpwood had to attend the meeting in the central region and Leon sought help from the Dragon Corps, Mister Orpwood specifically asked Levi to lead a team. He was to obey Leon's order and assist him in fighting the Southern Boss and the Western Boss.Because of that, the Dragon Guards were observing the situation instead of interfering without Leon's order.However, the situation escalated and Leon was about to declare war against the Southern Boss and the Western Boss.Seeing this, Levi could not remain silent any longer. "Western Boss, you better think twice. The Southern Boss is wanted by the Dragon Corps and even came to the Western region to commit murder. If you know what's best for you, you will leave with your men instead of aiding the Southern Boss. Otherwise, we shall punish you and the Fermers for this!" he reprimanded as his heart sank.With little time to prepare, Levi and Henry only managed to summon eight Dragon Guards to aid Leon.He initially thought that the Southern Boss and the Western Boss weren the Advanged Almighty State and concluded that it would not be challenging to defeat them.To his bewilderment, both the Southern Boss and the Western Boss were in the Peak Almighty state.This caught him by surprise.Meanwhile, he knew nothing about Leon and did not know which level he was in.
Regardless, given Leon's age, he did not think that Leon was a matoh for the Southern Boss and the Western Boss.Even with the help of the Dragon Guards, Leon would not stand a chance.
The Ex Husbands Revenge Chapter 2956-"What? Levi, how do you know that the Southern Boss committed murder?" The Western Boss was shocked.
The Southern Boss was shocked as well. He assumed that he did not leave any trace when he took the Rainbow Flower from Jaxon.
To his surprise, the Dragon Corps knew about it and he was taken aback.
"You can't hide the truth forever. Western Boss, what the Southern Boss did has nothing to do with you, so you better stop assisting him now or you will lead your family into destruction!" Levi said.
The Southern Boss was wanted for the crimes he committed in the southern region. On top of that, he murdered to steal the Rainbow Flower in the western region.
There was no way that the Dragon Corps would spare the Southern Boss.
However, the Western Boss was different.
He was not the culprit behind the crime but committed murder even though he was aiding the Southern Boss.
If the Western Boss was willing to give up, the Dragon Corps would not hold him accountable. However, if he refused to retreat and continued to help the Southern Boss, the Dragon Corps would not spare the two of them.
"Levi is right. Western Boss, you have one chance now. So long as you retreat and change your ways, I can consider sparing you!" After hearing what Levi said, Leon halted his action and did not attack.
Though Felton repeatedly caused trouble for him, he did not suffer any actual loss.
Apart from that, the Dragon Corps was responsible for maintaining order and stability.
The Western Boss was the ruler of the underground community. If he took the Western Boss down, the western region would experience an uproar just like the southern region.
This did not fit into the Dragon Corps' principle.
In consideration of the greater good, Leon was willing to spare the Western Boss and the Formers so long as they retreated now.
"Well," The Western Boss's expression darkened and he fell into silence.
He was willing to help the Southern Boss fight the Thompsons because of profit. However, theDragon dorps got involved and if he continued to help the Southern Boss, the Dragon Corps may punish the Fermers afterward.
"Western Boss, don't listen to Leon. I already told you that I have everything arrangedita ensure that thè Dragon Corps won't hold you and the Fermers accountable. Besides, if you eliminate Leon and the
Thompsons for me, all profit made by Cynthion Group in the western region will be yours," the Southern Boss said hurriedly.
He knew how formidable Leon was. If the Western Boss and the Fermers retreated, he dould not fight Leon and the Dragon Guards on his own.
The Ex Husbands Revenge Chapter 2957-"Yeah. Dad, don't get fooled by Leon! He cost US the Apostles and broke my leg. You have to avenge me!" Felton agreed along.
He fought Leon multiple times and lost every single time. Because of that, he resented Leon and desperately wished for his demise.
With the Southern Boss and the Western Boss going against Leon, they had the upper hand. Hence, he was reluctant to see the Western Boss backing out and sparing Leon.
"I know! Felton, don't worry. I will destroy that kid and avenge you!" With a cold look in his eyes, the Western Boss made his choice.
The Fermers targeted Leon repeatedly mainly because they wished to obtain Cynthion Group.
As the grievances between the Fermers and Leon deepened, there was no way that the Western Boss would spare Leon or give up on taking Cynthion Group even if the Dragon Corps was involved.
He was not worried about being punished by the Dragon Corps.
Given his strength in the Peak Almighty State and his influence in the western region, the Dragon Corps would not be able to do much to him since he could blame it all on the Southern Boss.
"Good choice, Western Boss." The Southern Boss sighed a breath of relief.
He was glad that he did not inform the Western Boss about Leon's true strength, causing the Fermers to repeatedly suffer losses at Leon's hands.
At this point, the grievances between Leon and the Fermers deepened to the point of no return.
Otherwise, the Western Boss would have chosen to retreat to protect his own family.
The Southern Boss was one step ahead of the Western Boss.
"Levi, Leon broke my son's leg and I must seek justice today. If the Dragon Corps insists on interfering and helping him, I won't spare you either!" The Western Boss turned to Levi and said coldly.
He knew that it was normal for martial artists to duel and the Dragon Corps rarely got involved in personal grudges.
Using the fact that Leon injured Felton, he had an excuse to act.
With the Southern Boss as his scapegoat, he could evade responsibility even if the Dragon Corps came for him afterward.
"Why you!" Levi was furious.
Since the Western Boss was determined to side with the Southern Boss and had the upper hand, there was nothing Levi could do.
"Very well! Western Boss, I've given you a chance. Since you are 59 m deadset on dying, l wilt have both you añel the Southern Boss eliminated!"
Leon laughed angrily.
He was going to spare the Western Boss out of consideration for the greater good, but since the Western Boss did not appreciate it, he would not be merciful.
Without another word, he fired up his spiritual energy and prepared to attack, when Levi stopped him.
"Mister Wolf, the Southern Boss, and the Western Boss are too strong for us. I think the Dragon Guards Should stay beking to stall them while you leäve with the Thompsons. Once you get out of here safely, contact Mister Orpwood and Mister Glasbey to send more people here. This is the way for us to win!" Levi said.
Though he did not know why Mister Orpwood left Leon in charge, he knew that they were no match for the Southern Boss and the Western Boss.
At the moment, retreating was the best option.
Once Leon got out safely, he could wait until Alfred and Mister Orpwood returned, before working with them to eliminate the Southern Boss and the Western Boss.
When that was accomplished, the Southern Boss and the Western Boss would surely perish This was a far better plan than facing the Southern Boss and the Western Boss head-on.
The Ex Husbands Revenge Chapter 2958-"Yes, this man is right. Mister Wolf, the Thompsons, and the Dragon Guards should stay back to fend off the enemy while you leave with Arthur and the head of our family. Leave US behind."
The Thompsons perked up and agreed with Levi's idea.
Since Leon ran out of the Potential Energy Forces, they did not think Leon stood a chance against the Southern Boss and the Western Boss as it was unrealistic.
So long as Leon, Angus, and the others could escape safely, it seemed worth it even if they all died.
"You want to run? Not so soon. Western Boss, leave Leon to me. You and the Fermers can help deal with the Dragon Guards and the Thompsons."
The Southern Boss thought that Leon was running and sneered as he made the call.
Apart from that, he held a deep grudge toward Leon and now that Leon ran out of Potential Energy Forces, he no longer had any concerns.
Hence, he decided to take Leon down himself to avenge what Leon did to the Spears.
"Alright! Fermers, prepare to attack!" the Western Boss ordered.
He then waved his arm and the Fermers prepared to attack.
"Mister Wolf, we'll work with the Dragon Guards to stall the Southern Boss and the Western Boss. Take Arthur and run!” Seeing as the Southern Boss and the Western Boss were ready to attack, Levi and the Thompsons urged Leon to run while they got into formation.
"Run? That won't be necessary! Don't worry, everyone. The Southern Boss and the Western Boss can't do much. Just product Iris, Elder Thompson, and the others. Leave the Southern Boss and the Western Boss to me!" Leon shook his head and rejected their suggestion.
"What?"
Leon's words shook everyone.
The Dragon Guards and the Thompsons were certain that they could not win against the Southern Boss and the Western Boss.
It seemed like the best solution was for Leon to escape with Arthur.
However, to their bewilderment, Leon refused to run and even claimed he could defeat the Southern Boss and the Western Boss.
This was practically suicidal and they could not understand what gave Leon such confidence.
"Leon, how dare you? Since you are in a hurry to die, I will help you out with that! Prepare yourself!" The Southern Boss laughed angrily, provoked by Leon's arrogance.
Without further delay, he reached his arm out and charged at Leon at the speed of lightning.
"Come at me!" Leon scoffed.
Facing the Southern Boss's attack, he took a step back and launched the Earthly Plunder.
His energy gathered at the tip of his finger and was sent directly at the Southern Boss.
"You must have a death wish, kid!" The Southern Boss narrowed his eyes sharply.
He knew that Leon was only in the Advanced Almighty State, which Was miles away from the Peak Almighty Státe he was in.
Given Leon's power and tricks available to him, he may be able to survive longer it he dodged around.
However, he foolishly chose to face the Southern Boss with a single finger.
This was practically suicidal and the Southern Boss was not about to miss this opportunity.
He exerted more force in his attack, intending to destroy Leon, with a single blow to vent his resentment.
The Ex Husbands Revenge Chapter 2959-"He must have a death wish!" The Western Boss, Felton, and Rodney sneered and looked at Leon as though he was already dead.
The Western Boss could not sense any true energy from Leon and did not know what level he was in.
However, judging from Leon's speed and explosive power, he had to be in the Advanced Almighty State at best.
That would mean he was no match for the Southern Boss.
Leon would surely perish once the Southern Boss's attack landed if they were not mistaken.
That was the only possible outcome.
"It's over. Mister Wolf is over," Contrary to their reaction, the Dragon Guards and the Thompsons all fell into despair.
Like the Western Boss, they all thought that Leon would lose to the Southern Boss unless there was a miracle.
However, what happened next shocked them all.
Baam!
Following a deafening sound, Leon's Earthly Plunder and the Southern Boss's attacks clashed.
Just as the Southern Boss and the Western Boss predicted, Leon was indeed in the Advanced Almighty state without the Mirror of Sovereign instead of the Semi-Saint State.
However, the Earthly Plunder could gather all his spiritual energy to one point, allowing it to cause great damage.
After they crossed fire, Leon's Earthly Plunder pierced past the Southern Boss's attack and pierced through his shoulder, leaving a bloody wound behind.
On top of that, the Southern Boss paled and backed away, before falling to the ground.
"The Southern Boss lost?” "How's that possible?"
Everyone was shocked and rubbed their eyes in disbelief.
They all thought that given the difference in strength, Leon could not possibly fend off the Southern Boss, not to mention win against him.
To their bewilderment, the reality was quite the contrary.
Not only did Leon fend off the Southern Boss's attack, but he also defeated and injured the Southern Boss.
Yet, the reality delivered a resounding slap to his face.
To his bewilderment, Leon defeated him with a single finger in a direct fight.
This was so surreal that he could not understand how Leon managed it, nor could he accept the reality.
The Ex Husbands Revenge Chapter 2960-"Nothing is impossible. Southern Boss, it's time we settle the scores!
Prepare to die!" Leon launched the Earthly Plunder again as he charged at the Southern Boss.
"Oh no!" The Southern Boss was terrified.
He already witnessed the power of the Earthly Plunder and dared not to face Leon directly.
Thankfully, Leon was merely in the Advanced Almighty State and was much slower than he was.
Hence, he intended to utilize his advantage in speed to dodge Leon's attack.
"You want to make this a competition of speed? Please!" Leon scoffed and executed the Phantom Steps as he continued to pursue the Southern Boss with the Earthly Plunder.
"Leon's strength and speed have leveled up a few times compared to the last time I saw him. This is unbelievable. Has he reached the Peak Almighty State as well?" As Leon came closer, the Southern Boss panicked.
He knew the extent of Leon's power.
Within just a month, Leon's power increased. Using the Earthly Plunder, he defeated the Southern Boss with the Earthly Plunder and his speed went up as well.
All these indicated that perhaps Leon rose to the Peak Almighty State as well, or Leon would not be so formidable.
Instantly, he realized how Loen managed to defeat him.
Naturally, this was not the time for him to ponder.
"Damn it! Here goes nothing. Divine Kick!" Seeing as he could not get away from Leon, the Southern Boss executed his most powerful technique.
The sand on the ground rose as he swung his leg to deliver a powerful kick.
Baam!
Following a deafening sound, Leon's Earthly Plunder and the Southern Boss's Divine Kick clashed.
Though Leon's Earthly Plunder wasana Advanced Power technique, Leon's actual power was in the Advanced Almighty state, which was miles away from the Peak Almighty state the Southern Boss was in.
The Divine Kick immediately countered the Earthly Plunder and sent Leon back away.
"This guy is weaker than he looks,"
The Southern Boss did not expedt!
Leon to jack'away and was overjoyed.
He never expected Leon to launch another attack while being on the momentum of the first attack.
Under normal circumstances, true energy in the Initial Emperor state would not do much to him However, he was panthe momentum of the first attack and was powerless in countering. Hence, he could only watch as Leon's true energy approached.
However, before he could laugh, what happened next shocked him.
"Take this!” Leon clenched his fists and launched the Double Attack.
His true energy in the Initial Emperor State rose and darted toward the Southern Boss.
"What? What the heck is this?" The Southern Boss was shaken to the core.
This completely caught him off-guard.
