Mistaken Match: Marrying the Enigmatic CEO
Chapter 2350; The Star Formation
Emmanuel’s power shocked Cassandra to the core.
The miraculous sight that occurred before her was hard to believe. The other three elders also winded their eyes at Emmanuel.
A grin contorted Hati’s face. “I need to reconsider my opinion about you. Are you possibly stronger than Gwain?”
However, Emmanuel scoffed and disdainfully said, “I thought the elders of the Lannister family would be better than this. I too, should reconsider my opinion about you if you resort to dirty tricks. None of you are as noble as you thought. You’re all corrupted from within!”
“What the hell did you say?” His words hit a nerve. The agitated members of the Lannister family yelled at him, ready to pounce at him at any minute.
“I didn’t speak a foreign language, did I?” Emmanuel’s face showed no fear. He spoke loudly, disregarding the fighters of the Lannister family, although they outnumbered him. “The Lannister family is corrupted. You’ll meet your downfall if you continue to follow Eric and Gwain blindly.”
“You scoundrel!” Cassandra was offended. Thinking he was speaking nonsense, she attacked him.
As an elder of the Lannister family, there was no doubt she used the family’s techniques.
Although her internal strength wasn’t as strong as Gwain, who had practiced the Dragon Tome, her experience surpassed him. She was a more practiced fighter than him.
Her sudden attack might have gained the upper hand if her opponent had been someone else. Unfortunately, she picked Chanaea’s anchor as her opponent. Every move was useless when faced with the Art of Adaptability. Emmanuel dodged her attack and quickly struck.
She gasped in surprise. She dodged at the last minute, narrowly avoiding her demise. Yet, it took all her strength to do that.
“I don’t want to fight you, but you wouldn’t listen.”
He didn’t intend to kill anyone. Otherwise, he would have used a fiercer technique. At that moment, his casual smile had slipped off his face. He pointed at the elders and warned, “I doubt you’re ready to bear the consequences.”
The elders failed to take his words seriously.
Hati burst into laughter. “We haven’t met our match in the martial arts world for decades. young man, are you mocking us now?”
“Xarri,” Emmanuel’s patience had run out after talking to them. So far, he hadn’t acted, focusing on supporting the siblings. However, he sensed it was time for him to speak up. “The Lannister family has gone astray. If you want to seek justice for you father, it’s impossible to do it by reasoning with them. You have to shake things up. Just overthrow the current rule structure and rebuilt it as you like!”
Xarri nodded immediately. A wise man like him only thought about the broader picture.
“Kill them all!” Gwain knew he couldn’t defeat Xarri in a one-on-one fight, so he didn’t bother to stick to the ethic.
Level-headed individuals in the Lannister family, like Wyatt, looked on without intervening.
The rest in the hall followed Gwain’s example in attacking Xarri and Quell while the Four Elders engaged in a fight with Emmanuel.
“Since you asked for it, we’d rather attack at once.” Hati shamelessly taunted, “I wonder if you’re as good as Santiago.”
Whoosh! As he finished speaking, Cassandra struck Emmanuel with a whip.
Skoll, Helenus and Cassandra joined efforts to attack Emmanuel.
Even with the Art of Adaptability, Emmanuel struggled to deal with three master fighters.
“No wonder they said the Lannister family will thrive longer than the martial arts world.” Santiago and Yorick had been spectating the battle from afar.
However, none of them rushed to enter the battle.
The Four Elders were powerful. Any Sage-level fighter would have a hard time against them. However, the duo wanted to see where Emmanuel’s limits lay.
Yorick still remembered the fight on Divine Mountain. Back then, he, Gwain, and Aora exchanged at least a hundred blows with Emmanuel, yet they couldn’t defeat him. He doubted the three elders could achieve what he couldn’t.
The idea also went to Hati’s head. Emmanuel was more formidable than Santiago during the latter’s peak.
Seeing the trio gradually struggle to keep up with Emmanuel, Hati growled. “Emmanuel, don’t you dare to underestimate us! You haven’t seen what we are capable of!”
he joined the three elders, completing the formation. Their figures gleaned like the twinkling stars in the sky. Emmanuel was alerted.
He had never faced such opponents, who had reached a four-as-one harmony. He must be cautions. Here they come!
The elders moved faster than the eye could follow, like lightning flashing. Like a meteor falling from the sky, they rushed at Emmanuel with an overwhelming aura.
Emmanuel’s expression became serious, but he didn’t panic. He inhaled, activated the Art of Sunflame, and his internal strength surged.
Whoosh! He fought them with the Serpentine Strike.
Instantly, the energy burst like four serpents coming to ocean’s surface.
The four were among the top fighters today, yet they had to work together to withstand Emmanuel’s attack.
When they were distracted, he took the opportunity to take on step forward. Then, his figure disappeared from the spot instantly and broke through the formation, leaving only an afterimage in their vision.
“What- Just how?” Cassandra crocked in disbelief.
The seemingly mysterious Four Elders could no longer maintain their composure. The gesture dealt a blow to their pride.
They had reached the top of the Chanaea martial arts world years ago. They could have beaten the others and joined the Eight Supremes if they hadn’t opted to guard the Lannister family for the rest of their lives.
They had always thought they wouldn’t meet their matches outside the Lannister family.
However, they found themselves outmatched by only one opponent.
Emmanuel appeared behind Cassandra the next moment, throwing a strong and fast punch at her.
Her face went pale with shock. Why does he always target me as if I’m his archnemesis?
Fortunately, Hati reached in time. He pivoted and dealt a palm strike at Emmanuel, his palm collided with Emmanuel’s fist.
Boom! A blast erupted, and both staggered backward.
The impact didn’t stun Emmanuel like it did Hati. His expression turned cold as he disappeared from the spot and reappeared before Helenus.
He didn’t hesitate to kick at Helenus’s chest. Helenus paled at the incoming blow and crossed one arm before himself to block it.
However, he underestimated Emmanuel’s strength. He grunted when his arm came in contact with Emmanuel’s technique. The impact sent him flying across the compound before he crashed.
The intense battle caught the crowd’s attention. They stopped fighting the siblings and instead watched the elders fight Emmanuel. When the fight escalated, they gasped.
They couldn’t believe the Four Elders had yet to defeat Emmanuel when they had joined efforts.
