Chapter 14 Ruthless And Decisive

• Four of Logan's subordinates surrounded Skylar and Bianca. He was spouting arrogant remarks, which nearly drove Bianca to the brink of fury.
• “Logan, you're digging your own grave. Grandpa won't let you off the hook!”
• “Ha, Bianca, you're giving this paramour way too much credit! He's only your fiancé, and you're not even married yet. Even if you are, so what? I am Grandpa's beloved grandson. Even if I cripple him, he will at most scold me and put me under house arrest for a few days!”
• Logan's arrogance had Bianca trembling with anger.
• Meanwhile, Logan's four bodyguards simultaneously drew extendable batons from their waists. With a swift flick, they positioned themselves in an aggressive stance.
• At that moment, a strong arm wrapped around her shoulders. Bianca's body tensed and her face instantly flushed. It turned out to be Skylar, who had reached out and embraced her.
• “Bianca, do you think Grandpa Wallace will blame me if I deal with him?”
• Bianca shook her head, her gaze softly settling on Skylar.
• “He's essentially digging his own grave. Uncle Aaron has always been offbeat, so it's not surprising his son turns out this way. Feel free to handle things as you see fit. Even if it ends up a mess, it doesn't matter. Just make sure not to beat him to death. I'll talk to Grandpa on your behalf!”
• “All right!”
• No sooner had the words left his lips, Skylar abruptly lunged toward Logan, who was standing ten meters away.
• As the saying goes, destroy the leader and the gang will collapse. As long as Logan was under his control, the four bodyguards wouldn't dare lay a finger on him.
• The two bodyguards standing in front of Skylar were taken aback. They hadn't expected Skylar to suddenly lash out, let alone initiate an attack on Logan.
• The two bodyguards hoisted their extendable batons and aimed straight for Skylar.
• They watched as the hefty blow from their clubs seemingly landed on Skylar. However, in the next moment, they realized that their attack had missed. It turned out that they had only struck an afterimage.
• Almost simultaneously, these two individuals suddenly experienced a sharp pain originating from their elixir field.
• The two of them suddenly doubled over, mouths agape. A gush of fresh blood sprayed out before they collapsed onto the ground.
• In the instant Skylar evaded the dual attack, he threw out both fists simultaneously. The knuckles of his middle fingers landed squarely on the two individuals' elixir fields.
• This move was the Veda Finger, one of Steelpsych's Seventy-Two Ultimate Techniques.
• Skylar didn't want to kill anyone within the boundaries of the Weiss residence, so he only used thirty percent of his strength.
• Even so, both individuals had suffered an attack on their elixir field, akin to being struck by a ten-pound iron hammer.
• In an instant, these two individuals lost their fighting abilities, and their martial skills were rendered useless.
• For those who practiced martial arts, a severe blow to their elixir field meant they would struggle to muster strength in the future.
• Logan didn't even catch a glimpse of Skylar's figure. All he heard were the horrified screams of his subordinates. In that split second, Skylar had already reached his front!
• In the blink of an eye, utilizing the momentum propelling him forward, Skylar swiftly pivoted and brutally rammed his shoulder into Logan.
• This move was the Iron Hill Collision, the ultimate technique within the Eight Extreme Fists!
• At that moment, Logan felt as if he had been hit head-on by a sedan traveling at eighty miles per hour.
• As he let out a sharp cry, his body was flung backward. He soared through the air for several meters before heavily crashing into the shrubs of a nearby garden.
• The shrubs in the thicket left numerous scratches across his face and body.
• At that moment, he was overwhelmed by a tremendous pain in his ribcage. Several of his ribs had been broken.
• All of this happened in the blink of an eye. From the moment Skylar launched his attack to when Logan was sent flying and landed on the ground, it only took two to three seconds.
• At that moment, the remaining two bodyguards had nothing but terror filling their eyes!
• As the saying goes, an expert can tell quality with just a touch. The dire state of their companions indicated to these two that the person before them was not to be messed with!
• However, Logan's bodyguards were veterans. One of them directly charged toward Bianca.
• Aware that he probably couldn't match Skylar's strength, his plan was to take Bianca hostage, hoping to hold Skylar back because of his fear of hurting her.
• In the blink of an eye, Skylar swiftly raised his hand and sent a triangular silver needle flying.
• Pfft!
• The silver needle pierced directly into the bodyguard's throat and emerged from the back of his neck.
• The bodyguard was killed on the spot, his body falling heavily to the ground!
• Even though Skylar initially had no intention of shedding blood in the Weiss residence, that man had the audacity to lay a hand on Bianca. This crossed Skylar's line.
• Skylar would never allow anyone to harm Bianca! Anyone who dared to lay a finger on her was destined to meet their end!
• Seeing the situation unfold, the remaining bodyguard was instantly filled with terror. At that moment, he turned to run, no longer caring about what was happening.
• A smirk of disdain appeared on Skylar's face. You think you can just run after failing to win? It's not going to be that easy.
• With a sudden movement, Skylar thrust out his foot and forcefully stomped on the ground. The large tile that lay beneath his foot instantly shattered into pieces under his powerful step.
• One of the cobblestones, about the size of a fist, bounced up from the ground, reaching a height of over half a meter.
• Right then, Skylar swiftly extended his left leg and kicked the broken brick.
• The kick was as powerful as a footballer's mid-air strike. Once hit, the broken brick hurtled toward the fleeing bodyguard.
• Thud! Crack! “Ouch!”
• With a terrible cry, the bodyguard lurched forward, tumbling over a meter away before crashing heavily onto the ground. He fell unconscious on the spot.
• The shattered brick struck the bodyguard squarely on the spine. With that one blow, his lumbar vertebrae were broken, rendering him paralyzed from the waist down!
• It wasn't fair to blame Skylar for his ruthless actions. He had already used the Aura Inspection Technique and detected the murderous intent radiating from these four bodyguards.
• Once a person took another's life, they would emit a certain aura of malevolence. The more lives they took, the more potent this aura would become.
• These individuals, who were associated with Logan, evidently had blood on their hands. They were clearly no saints.
• Skylar's master, Nicholaus, was the King of Assassins. He had advised him to strike without mercy when dealing with such evil individuals.
• This served as a protection not only for himself, but also for others!
• At that very moment, the guards of the Weiss family sensed something amiss. In no time, over a dozen of them arrived and surrounded Skylar and the others.
• At the front was a man in his thirties named Kayden. He was an orphan taken in by the Weiss family and had been serving them for over two decades.
• Currently, the Weiss family was grooming him to be Maxim's successor.
• When Kayden arrived at the scene, he furrowed his brow. A dead body lay before him, along with three critically injured individuals. Blood was splattered everywhere. Clearly, this was no minor incident!
• “What's going on?” Kayden asked with a stern face.
• “Kayden, Kayden, it's me, Logan! Help me! This shameless couple wanted to kill me!”
• Logan struggled to crawl out of the bushes. Seeing that one of his remaining bodyguards was dead and the other severely injured, his courage completely deserted him.
