Chapter 1408
The Ex-Husband's Revenge
âDonât waste your time on him, Penny!â Leon was running out of patience and glared at Nigel coldly.
âThis is your last chance, Nigel! Let them go right now and I can consider sparing your life! Refuse, and Iâll have you torn into bits!â
âYou? A guy in the Initial Innate State is going to tear me into bits? Thatâs hilarious!â Nigel burst into laughter in contempt.
âThe Initial Innate State?â Realization dawned on Leon.
After the conflict with Mister Umair, the Scammells all thought that he was weak as a martial artist and they all underestimated him since then, which would play to Leonâs advantage.
Underestimating oneâs enemy could often be deadly and if Leon could take advantage of that, he might be able to rescue Ruth and Cynthia from Nigel.
âYou asked for this, Nigel! Iâll fight you as you wish!â Leon scoffed and prepared to attack. To catch Nigel off guard, he purposefully released his true energy, which was in the Initial Innate State as Nigel predicted, to prevent Nigel from noticing the trap Leon was setting up for him.
âCome on!â Nigel was excited.
He could not take the initiative to start a fight with Leon when Penny was there, but since Leon started it, Patrick would not be able to punish Nigel for defending himself even if he injured Leon in the end.
âDonât be reckless, Leon! Nigel is in the Peak Supreme State. Youâre no match for him! Youâre going to suffer if you challenge him directly,â Startled, Penny immediately stopped Leon.
Nigel was the most powerful martial artist of their generation in the Scammells and Leon had no way of defeating Nigel when even Penny herself fell short in front of Nigel.
Leon would be on a suicide mission if he challenged Nigel to a fight.
Amid her panic, she completely neglected the fact that Leon defeated two Scammellsâ guards in the Initial Supreme State with ease, so there was no way that he was only in the Initial Innate State.
âDonât stop me, Penny. Iâm going to teach him a lesson today!â Leon said proudly and went around Penny, before leaping toward Nigel.
âDie!â Nigel narrowed his eyes viciously.
He assumed that Leon was in the Initial Innate State and his belief was reinforced when he detected Leonâs true energy earlier; since Leon was at a much lower level of power compared to him, he had nothing to fear from Leon and was pleased that Leon was foolish enough to dig his own grave.
Nigel released Cynthia and Ruth and swiftly launched an attack in full force in Leonâs direction destroying Leon with a single blow.
