One by one, the blades hit the amulet on Tarlo's body. It instantly started shining, but broke into pieces after taking the damage of the blades.
Fade's attack did not stop. A beam of positive energy shot out from his hand, aimed directly at Tarlo's heart.
When Tarlo realized this, he was extremely frightened and shouted, "No, don't kill me. I am the young master of the Long family. My sister is Tiana. You can't..."
However, Fade turned a deaf ear to his words and positive energy surged around him, about to hit Tarlo's heart.
At the critical moment, a shadow suddenly rushed in. At the last moment, it blocked Fade's attack and saved Tarlo.
Tarlo, who was so frightened that his heart almost jumped out, looked at the figure who had appeared in front of him. It seemed that the dying man grabbed the last life- saving chance and rushed to her crazily. "Tiana, you are here. You are finally here. Fade wants to kill me. Kill him. You..."
The men behind him let out a sigh of relief when they saw Tiana's arrival.
At this moment, she glanced at the private room, then looked at Fade and said in a low voice, "Fade, what are you doing? Last time, you made trouble at the Long family's banquet, and now you want to kill my brother. Do you think that the Long family is that easy to bully?"
"Easy to bully?" Fade snorted coldly, and his gaze was extremely icy. "Why don't ask your good brother what he did!"
Tiana's expression immediately fell when she noticed the girls.
Tarlo quickly explained, "Tiana, we haven't done anything yet."
"How dare you!" A trace of anger flashed across Fade's eyes. With a wave of his hand, a burst of energy shot towards Tarlo.
Tarlo was shocked, and hurried to hide behind Tiana.
She reacted quickly and blocked Fade's attack. Their energies collided in mid-air, creating a small explosion.
"Fade, you're crossing the line here. How dare you attack my brother before you even find out what had really happened!" She glared at him.
"The truth couldn't be clearer," he returned. "I've already warned you not to touch my friends, otherwise, you will all die."
After that, he started launching more attacks.
"Fade, you..." Tiana paused, then immediately countered his attacks.
However, she was the sole protector of multiple targets.
As a result, she couldn't block his attacks at all. It was already hard enough for her to block Fade's attacks at Tarlo, but the other men had been hit instead. Their limbs broke on impact and bloody wounds appeared on their bodies as they wailed in pain.
Upon seeing this, Tiana gritted her teeth and shouted, "Fade, you've gone too far."
"Is this over? I haven't killed them yet, so I'm being kind enough already." With a loud roar, another sharp burst of energy erupted from his palm, aiming towards a man who already had his legs broken.
The target couldn't manage to dodge this attack at all, and Tiana did not expect Fade to attack as well. Thus, she couldn't manage to block it.
Fade snorted at their pleas as he turned to Tarlo and questioned, "What about you? Are you still going to defend yourself?"
Tarlo's expression changed and he didn't know how to say it.
Just then, Tiana stopped him with a loud roar. She glared at him as she spoke, "Fade, that's enough. Even if the Long family is responsible for this incident, it did not cause any severe consequences. Why do you have to be so cruel?"
Fade let out a chuckle at her words. "What did you just say?"
"If I hadn't arrived in time, what do you think would've happened? If you were the one lying here, waiting to be violated, would you still say the same?" He retorted.
Her expression darkened slightly, and then she answered, "Fade, these assumptions are meaningless. Now, solving the problem is the most important thing. Give me your conditions. As long as the Long family can afford it, we will never refuse."
After that, she looked at him confidently.
In her opinion, she had already taken many steps back. Moreover, no Martial Arts Masters had yet to refuse the Long family's compensation.
However, her calculations about Fade were still wrong.
After hearing her words, the corner of his mouth was lifted into a cold smile. He shook his head. His expression suddenly sank as he replied, "Originally, I thought that no matter how shameless and vicious you are, you would still be able to realize your mistake and restrain yourself."
"But I was wrong. You don't know what it means to be wrong. Any mistake, any evil, whether it's human life or something else, in your eyes, they are just commodities with a price. The Long family has a big business. You think that you can afford the price and solve anything."
