Carson was shocked. What kind of creatureâs hand was this? His
dagger was forged from Olympian Iron, capable of slicing rock like it
was butter. Yet, it was ineffective against the hand.
On the third floor office, Derek, Heidi, Queenie, and Yasmin were
occupying the entire window while Nash, Melody, and Xeno were
squeezed to the side. The latter group had no interest in the situation.
below, however.
Melody poured a cup of hot water for Nash and asked, âHow much
longer until their people arrive?â
Nash took the cup and looked at Xeno. Xeno checked the time. âThey should be here soon. My people should be arriving shortly!â
By the window, Heidi bit her finger and asked, âIs Finn injured?â
At this moment, Finn was surrounded by a dozen or so people who
were wielding baseball bats. He appeared as if he were drunk,
swaying from side to side. He dodged but did not attack.
In theory, someone of his caliber could easily defeat these people.
with just a few punches and kicks.
Derek leaned on the window sill and said with a grin, âFinn is a stage.
seven grandmaster. You know what that means-
âAh!â
Yasmin covered her mouth and screamed, interrupting Derekâs praise.
Derek immediately looked over and saw Finn lying on the ground with

the group of baseball bat-wielding people beating him savagely.
âDarn it.â Derek tried to climb out of the window with one foot, eager to jump down and help. However, Yasmin quickly grabbed him. âWhat are you doing?â
Derek stopped and turned back. âIâm going down to save him.â
Nash and Melody rushed to the window. They frowned when both of
them saw Finn being pummeled on the ground. At the same time, two more groups of people had rushed in. They were Xenoâs and
Salvatoreâs people.
They were all armed and wasted no time engaging in the fight.
Melody was puzzled. âHow did Finn end up getting beaten by a group
of regular people like this?â
After saying that, she immediately jumped out of the window. The
cement ground cracked upon the impact of her landing.
Nash noticed Finnâs darkened face and frowned. âHeâs been
poisonedâ¦â
With that, Nash also jumped out of the window.
Xeno walked confidently toward the door. At the entrance, he handed
his gun to his men while announcing loudly, âProtect these women
with your lives. If a single hair on their heads is harmed, Iâll hold you
accountable!â
Finn was already severely injured. Ken wanted to help him, but he was
outmatched by this old man. The difference in their strength was too great. If it were not for his unicorn arm, he would have been defeated long ago.
Cigarette in hand, Salvatore whacked the members of Black Tiger Hall with his nunchucks until they were begging for mercy. He flicked the
cigarette ash and said, âBrothers, be careful not to harm our own.
people!â
A chubby man with excess flesh all over his body asked, âSalvatore, how do we distinguish our own people?â
Salvatoreâs mouth twitched. âAnyone fighting with Black Tiger Hall is
ours!â
âOkay!â The chubby man nodded innocently and casually slapped
away a thin guy who was trying to ambush him. This chubby man
might look slow, but he was Salvatoreâs companyâs top enforcer.
Melody had already rescued Finn. A dozen strong men carrying baseball bats swarmed in, and Melodyâs eyes gleamed with cold
determination. Raising her hand, she unleashed several streams of
invisible true energy.
Instantly, all of the men were sent flying before they finally crashed to
the ground, coughing up blood. They felt as if they had been hit by an
invisible truck.
Finnâs right cheek was swollen and bruised, and his lips had turned purple. He looked severely injured and was even coughing up blood. Nash reached out, checking Finnâs pulse at his neck. He then opened his eyelids, only to see that they were cloudy.
âThis is the Five Poisonous Pines from Carrion Mountainâ¦â
