Killing intent was brimming from both Duke Lucas and Banner.

Just for a Spirit-type magical treasure, they were willing to risk it all.

They believed that as long as they covered their tracks cleanly, even the Conglomerate organisation wouldn't be able to find any clues from their investigations.

That's why they made their move.

Using their lightning-fast abilities, what they were planning to do was to make it a quick kill.

They could risk anyone surviving except for Gwendolyn and Tammy!

In the blink of an eye, Tammy's gaze sank, and her cold chill lightly dispersed further. Her figure produced a sword from somewhere that blocked in front of Gwendolyn.

"Bam!"

Sparks were seen flashing around in the air. No one could tell who was who while they could only see the blur of figures constantly clashing back and forth. They would repeatedly bounce off each other and collide once again, creating an extremely shocking scene for the viewers.

"Bam!"

Suddenly, a dark figure started falling from the sky.

The figure went straight down before smashing into the ground next to Gwendolyn with a bang. A huge hole was formed, and dust showered the area, so people were unable to see who it was that fell.

The two other figures landed heavily on the ground with pale faces and some blood at the corners of their mouths.

As the dust began to settle, Tammy's face was very pale and her breathing unsteady. She glanced at Gwendolyn beside her but only saw Gwendolyn's cold look.

Gwendolyn did not even give Tammy a single glance!

Concerning this, Tammy felt coldness in her heart, "I have always treated her like my own little sister. Now that I'm injured, she didn't even glance at me. Did I really make a mistake?"

"Did I make a mistake?"

"Can she not understand that everything I've done was all for her?"

"Maxwell is not right for her and will only affect her negatively. He will only become a stumbling block for her in the future. Why, why can she not understand me?"

Tammy was defeated!

She was defeated miserably mentally and seriously wounded physically. For her, a level 4 diamond rank expert, being able to perform so well against two level 3 diamond ranks was already a show of her superior battle ability.

Those two Dukes only suffered light injuries.

The two Dukes felt that if they were by themselves, most likely they would not be Tammy's opponent. This made their minds somewhat shocked as they realised the people of the Conglomerate organisation were definitely not normal.

Lucas noticed the unmoving Gwendolyn and started smiling perversely. "Are you still going to stop us?"

Gwendolyn's voice was like ice and even firmer than before: "Yes!"

Lucas thought this was extremely funny. "A level 4 diamond rank can't stop us, so you think you can take us on? I appreciate your beauty, that's why I haven't killed you yet. Of course, I'm also doing this for my Academy members and myself. For such a sweet beauty like you is something I have not enjoyed before..."

Gwendolyn's expression remained unchanged as she said, "You have injured a person from my organisation. Since I kind of hate this person today, I won't blame or ask for compensation from you guys for hurting her. We'll consider it as a punishment that she deserved. I'm giving you guys one last chance: bring all your people back to the academy, and never take another step into this city again."

Her tone was extremely aggressive. The aura on her body was still like she was above them.

It was still dignified and domineering, completely not giving any value to the dukes or the Emporium Academy members in her eyes.

This made Lucas and Banner angry.

Banner frowned and directly said, "Lucas, enough of the bullshit with her. If you like her, just grab her and go. I will take care of everything else here."

Lucas faintly smiled, "This beauty is definitely going to be mine. But the good stuff on this kid, it's best that we each take one."

The two of them looked at each other as if they had formed an agreement, and then started laughing out loud.

The moment they were laughing, Gwendolyn said unhappily: "It looks like you two have already made your choice."

"Very good then!"

"Your Academy members here, including those guarding the city gates, will all have to die."

Her imposing manner could not be shaken!

Lucas gave a scoff and shouted, "Little lady, you think we're that easily scared? Wait until I get rid of this bunch of trash, then I can start giving you some love and tender care, hahaha..."

Before his laughter could fade, there was a flash in the sky, and a crack appeared.

Speaking more accurately, this was sword qi!

An extremely sharp sword qi filled with power beyond words! Just like a bolt of lightning, it contained an inexhaustible amount of power!

Like silence descending, right afterwards...

A small line appeared on Lucas's neck, and some blood started seeping out. He touched the wetness before looking at his fingers.

Suddenly, his eyes widened while he clamped onto his neck.

Blood started spraying out of his mouth and nose, but Lucas continued clamping onto his neck tightly.

Blood then started gushing out from between the gaps of his fingers. In just a few breaths of time, Lucas's body was soaked in his own blood, and his face was extremely pale.

Finally, his two hands weakly dropped to the side, and his head fell off his body.

His headless body stayed upright for half a second before toppling over.

It was only a single sword strike!

Lucas, a level 3 diamond ranker, had died. This scene was simply like a dream because he didn't know how he died or who initiated the sword strike!

But this dream to him was a dream that showed his death!

Everyone raised their head to look up at the sky. The faces of the Emporium academy members paled, their bodies started shaking, and their legs became soft.

Cold sweat started pouring down Banner's back. With a pale face, he started sweeping out with his spiritual senses, but no matter what, he couldn't detect the other person's aura.

Lucas's death was too bloody and terrifying!

But Gwendolyn looked like she was used to this, as her expression remained unchanged. She then softly said, "Kill them all, leave no one behind."

Very casual, a great amount of rage that was ice cold.

Gwendolyn looked like she had become a completely different person.

She was like a demoness that had killed countless people in the past, and was intimidating to the max. However, Constantine was grinning foolishly from ear to ear at this.

Out of everyone present, he was the only one who could laugh so happily. He then started shouting: "The Lady is so domineering; she is so mighty, hahaha..."

The rest of the Gillette Household members could only stare at Gwendolyn's back, their eyeballs unmoving and their mouths agape.

As Gwendolyn's voice faded, Banner immediately knelt on the ground and started begging: "Please spare this dog's life of mine, I don't dare anymore! I will immediately take my people to leave Eden City and will never take another step in here, never! A great person is magnanimous, so I beg you to spare my life!"

"We beg you, please spare us!"

"It was all Lucas's fault and has nothing to do with us."

In an instant, all the Emporium Academy's members knelt and started begging too. In the Emporium Academy's thousand-year history, there has never been a case such as today.

Was this how an overlord in a radius of 100,000 kilometres acted?

We can only say that the Conglomerate organisation behind Gwendolyn was simply too powerful.

Greed had overcome their judgment, and only now have they awoken from it?

Gwendolyn's expression was still calm and remained unchanged, but her voice became a notch colder as she said: "Did you not hear what I said?"

"Kill them all for me!"

As her voice faded, Banner's complexion darkened. Gwendolyn was only a few meters away from him, so as long as he grabbed her, no one would dare to touch him anymore.

He laughed coldly inside his heart. His eyes slightly glanced up before a whoosh sound was heard, and his body had already pounced forth.

The sword was a few centimetres away from Gwendolyn's eyes when it abruptly stopped. A thin vertical line with blood seeping out suddenly appeared between Banner's brows.

He was split into two! Instantly killed!

Gwendolyn's brows lightly twitched as she faintly said, "Do you know why you have died? Because you guys acted against my man, which has made me extremely unhappy!"

Tammy was startled by these words.

The unconscious Maxwell started smiling like a blooming flower...
