With the dressing in hand, Zhao Yao began his haphazard bandaging before shoveling bottles of energy drinks down their throats. He could finally heave a sigh of relief when the bleeding began to subside.

Wiping off the sweat acc.u.mulated on his forehead, he stood back up and was greeted by a radiant smile plastered across Black Panther's face. Zhao Yao slammed his face into his hands and muttered, "Black Panther, do you understand how serious this is? You almost killed these men here!"

"Master, it's perfectly fine." Black Panther intercept Zhao Yao's words, "I have been stabbing people all my life and I know the exact location to stab to prevent them from dying." With that, he brandished his dagger and continued, "Hey Master, we're destined to meet each other since both of us share a special interest in stabbing others."

"D*mn it! Who told you that I liked to stab people?" Zhao Yao retorted as he quivered with indignation.

Black Panther pointed to his belly and then his chest before explaining, "Master, but you …"

Zhao Yao rolled his eyes and answered, "Actually, I only like to stab you."

Black Panther was left speechless by that exasperating response.

After some time, Zhao Yao ordered Elizabeth to cast an illusion on everyone there. In their eyes, Tiger and gang had completely recovered from their injuries and were even jumping up and down. Yet, they would disappear into the crowd when no one was noticing.

Meanwhile, Zhao Yao continued leading his vast entourage out of the district. He also reminded Ares to drag the wounded apostles along using his deflective field.

After all, they were the reason why Zhao Yao even came to this place. Loads of experience awaited him the moment he successfully rescued them out of here.

Inside the cat bag, Elizabeth slammed one foot against Roly Poly's chubby cheek while thrusting the other foot against Ares's spine. With her sapphire-like eyes peering out of the bag and into the crowd, she exclaimed, "Zhao Yao actually managed to scam so many people this time around?"

Ares curled his lips in disgust and grumbled, "It is just a bunch of ordinary humans. I'm sure my Fist of the North Star will be able to obliterate all them in an instant."

Those insolent words got on Elizabeth's nerves as she slammed her bushy white tail against his face and muttered, "What do you know other than to kill and fight?" In her eyes, those hordes of people actually meant something greater. She whispered to herself, "They are all money! Zhao Yao really knows how to earn money."

Naturally, Zhao Yao brought along those apostles he was obligated to save. As for local apostles such as Tiger, they were obviously left behind there.

After some time, Tiger's eyelids finally began to quiver as he struggled to open his eyes. The first thing he noticed was the heaps of bandage strewn across his body. With the intense pain erupting from his belly, he stumbled to his feet before ambling towards Old Cat's direction, "I must … I must report everything to Old Cat …"

Meanwhile, the battle over at Old Cat's side was growing more intense by the second.

The two apostles who wielded the power of fire and ice had been severely debilitated by the merciless purple plasma sabers which struck relentlessly against them. In mid-air, Purple Sabre Fairy flicked his finger which sent a plasma saber flying straight towards Old Cat as he screamed, "Die!"

Pshoom! The two apostles could only watch as they witnessed the plasma saber tear across the sky and accelerated directly at Old Cat.

A few other apostles came forth and tried their best to intercept the attack with their bursts of fire and ice. Evidently, apostles who worked under Old Cat had all borrowed these similar powers from the same supercats.

But, their attempts were futile. The fire and ice they wielded were useless against the plasma saber which slashed across their skins as their blood splattered across the ground. They could only retreat for now.

Excitement and joy fluttered through Li Tian as he watched the plasma saber sliced across the sky. Happiness coursed through him as he watched the inferior apostles collapse to the ground, "Vice President, you are truly the best!"

Similarly, a glimmer of exhilaration flashed across Sonia's eyes as she witnessed first-hand the power of Ivory. Serving as the Vice-President of the organization, Purple Sabre Fairy was one of the most famous apostles from the south. Because of the conspicuous nature of his power, he had always found it hard to keep a low profile. Many had fallen to his plasma sabers, earning him a reputation which far preceded himself.

From the looks of it, none of the apostles who stood in the plasma saber's' way was its opponent. Regardless of how they dodged or defended, they simply could not escape its wrath as they collapsed to the ground, powerless to retaliate.

In her head, Sonia was pondering, "It's not that they are weak. He is simply too strong." Memories of these apostles torturing and thras.h.i.+ng her remained freshly imprinted in her memory. There was nothing she could do against them then.

Now, these exact people were trounced by the Purple Saber Fairy.

Actually, Purple Sabre Fairy had been stalking Li Tian all this time because two members of Ivory had been abducted by Old Cat. His original plan was to use Li Tian as a bait to understand the opponent's power before capturing them in one fell swoop.

However, the reality was a far cry from his plan. Instead of collecting any useful intel, Li Tian was already captured by the enemies. Left with no choice, Purple Sabre Fairy could only reveal his ident.i.ty.

Floating in mid-air, another apostle fell to the ground with a flick of his fingers. His hair-raising aura showed Sonia what it meant to wield such a strong power.

After piercing through the hordes of apostles, the plasma saber had finally depleted all its strength as it vanished into thin air.

Purple Sabre Fairy simply reacted with another flick of his finger which sent another plasma saber bursting towards Old Cat.

Currently, only seven apostles remained by Old Cat's side.

The plasma saber tore through the air at warp speed which sent a deafening blast sweeping in all directions. All these time, Uncle Meng cradled Old Cat in his arms with his eyes shut together. He finally opened his eyes as flashes of gray lines zoomed across him.

Immediately, an infinite amount of grey particles floating in the air began to fuse together, forming a grey dome s.h.i.+elding the Old Cat and the apostles.

Bam! This time around, the plasma saber failed to pierce through the defense. Instead, it simply clashed against the impregnable wall before sliding down and vanis.h.i.+ng into thin air.

Purple Sabre Fairy's eyes squinted into a hard line as he muttered, "This is …"

Old Cat let out a menacing laugh and explained, "This is the power to control carbon. I a.s.sume you know about this element. Diamonds, graphite are all composed of this very element …"

He simmered with anger when he realized that Old Cat was simply using this opportunity to flaunt his intellect. He immediately interrupted and said, "I know." Naturally, he spoke in a cool manner to maintain his image.

Old Cat wiped the smile off his face and commented, "That's good to know. I only bothered to explain for fear that you do not understand the chemical properties of carbon. Many who came to Chuan Xiao had no idea about this unique element. I spent so much time explaining to them …"

"Just shut your mouth." With his brows creased together, Purple Sabre Fairy shot out another plasma saber which spiralled in the air, drawing a perfect parabola in the sky. At the peak of its rotation, it stopped momentarily before it accelerated towards the dome at an astounding speed. However, it was futile.

"Hmph, I guess you still do not understand what I'm trying to say, "By controlling carbon, we can create diamond. No natural material in this world is capable of breaking through diamond. Do you understand?"

Actually, all the apostles who sacrificed their lives were buying time for Uncle Meng to activate his power.

Amongst the supercats which Old Cat had scammed, he had hand-picked the strongest power defensively and gave it to Uncle Meng. With Uncle Meng as his personal bodyguard, Old Cat had been preparing himself for this day.
