Magic Doctor CEO Lady's Humble Husband (Fade Chen) novel Chapter 2438

At this moment, in a dense forest on the island, Saimus, who had led his team away in a hurry, suddenly stopped and turned around to look behind him.

Not far away, dark clouds were gathering. Lightning and thunder flashed in the sky. Between them were red flames that crackled from time to time. A heavy flow of positive energy rumbled out in all directions.

"W- What's going on? What's happening over there?" A member of the team looked at the huge commotion behind him in shock.

"Is it another battle?"

"Isn't that where the herb farm is? Were Jaston and Mina upset and started another fight?"

"No way. They've been defeated."

"What's going on now? Should we turn back and have a look?"

Saimus' eyes flickered. He turned to them and said, "It's none of our business. We have to fend for ourselves first."

After that, he continued to run wildly away.

Coincidentally, at the other end of the forest were the injured Jaston and Ivlina who were also looking at the chaos that ensued behind them in shock.

After a moment of shock, they all turned their heads and sped up to leave.

At the same time, in front of the mirror outside the island. The captains were watching the scene playing in the mirror attentively with vivid expressions.

Nestor's face was full of worry.

Lucio, on the other hand, looked like he was feeding off his sadness.

Pierzy crossed his arms in front of his chest, looking confident.

As for the other captains, most of them were unbothered by what was happening. They enjoyed the bustling energy on the island.

At this moment, the scene in the mirror had become a picture of lightning, rain, and flames intertwined. The spreading light completely shrouded Fade and Balton. It was impossible to pinpoint both of their figures. One could only vaguely see them constantly colliding with each other.

Not too long later, the two men had been engaged in an intense battle for over five minutes.

Five minutes wasn't that long. However, fights among those at the Half- Lord Level would only take a few seconds.

These two men had been going at it for over five minutes, and yet the final result still was blurry. Therefore, the captains were all astonished to see this.

"I didn't expect Fade to last that long."

"He managed to hold out on Balton for five minutes. He is much stronger than I imagined!"

"Anyway, after this battle, Fade should at least be in second place. He's more than qualified."

Lucio, who was watching from a corner, couldn't help but look at Nestor and teased,

"Hehe, no matter how good he is, he has to survive first."

Nestor glared at him in response but didn't say anything. He continued to stare at the battle in the mirror, feeling particularly nervous and anxious.

There was a glimmer of hope within him that thought Fade might be able to defeat Balton.

Suddenly, at the exact moment, all the lights in the mirror collided with one another. A huge explosion followed after.

A bright red lotus emerged through the explosion and swallowed all the lightning and thunder, leaving nothing else behind.

"This..."

"What's going on? What happened?"

"Has someone won?"

"It looks like it's about to end."

All the captains exclaimed and stared at the mirror.

The red lotus gradually disappeared. Finally, a human figure emerged slowly in front of everybody's eyes.

"Who is it? Who the hell is it?" Some people couldn't wait any longer.

"Of course it's Balton! Is there even a need to ask?" Someone said in a disapproving manner.

Not only was this a big deal, but it would also make Thunder Hall more powerful. Naturally, no matter how you looked at it, there was no way he was willing to let Balton die on that island.

Bam!

With a loud boom, the fireball in Fade's palm shot out.

Living up to his reputation, the injured Balton was still able to duck from Fade's attack at a critical moment.

It dawned on him that Fade was set on killing him that day. Upon realizing this, he made up his mind to abandon his initial plan and flee from the battleground.

Seeing this, Fade frowned and chased after him.

This situation made Pierzy, who was extremely anxious, slightly relieved. Right after, he quickly got up and ran towards the island.

Ten minutes later, Fade spotted Pierzy taking Balton away. Sighing, he shook his head and turned to walk back towards the herb farm.

"I guess I'm still not strong enough to take down Balton. D*mn, I'm pretty sure this is going to come back to bite me later on."

Then, his eyes turned cold and he muttered in a stern tone, "But I won't allow him to escape next time."

When he returned to the herb farm, Alicia and Joey greeted him with their harvest.

Moreover, they had more good materials with them. They were carrying the items that belonged to Balton.

Earlier, Balton had fled in a hurry. Therefore, he didn't have a chance to take his bag with him.

Fade wasn't going to hold back either. He immediately packed all the materials into his bag.

Then, he brought the two girls to a cave on the island and waited quietly.

A few hours later, the official personnel announced that the exploration of the island was over. With that, everyone began to sail back.

Sitting on the boat and looking at each other, they found that at least a quarter of the people were missing.

As for the rest, more than 90 percent of them were injured and covered in dust. It was obvious that they had been in more than one battle.
