The bald man dodged to the side, only then did he wheel his head and look at what was behind him; his eyes filled with panic and shock. If he had not sensed the danger behind him and had been half a minute slower, his body would have been split into half and he would have died for sure.
Blood flowed out from the shoulder, and only after a brief moment, the bald man’s face turned pale.
He instantaneously took out a hemostatic healing pill and swallowed it down. The bleeding slowed down. But even so, the injury that Fane had inflicted on him was way too heavy.
“Fa—Fane!”
Joel took a sharp intake of breath as he looked at Fane. How could he have imagined that Fane would appear at this moment and give the bald man a surprise attack.
“Fane!”
Selena turned her head and took a look. It was Fane! Her eyes immediately welled up and her nose reddened; she could not help but feel relieved and happy. Just moments ago, she thought that she and Nash was going to die and that she could not see Fane again.
To her surprise, Fane appeared and sneakily attacked that big bald man, inflicting a heavy wound on him.
“He reacted pretty fast, eh? I used my fastest attack, but he could actually sense it. Sigh! I couldn’t finish him in one blow, what a shame!”
Fane sighed aloud, but soon a smile crept onto his face again. “However, I've given you such a big surprise—you’re heavily wounded! So, your combat prowess should be sharply reduced too!”
“Haha! There can never be too much deception in war, don’t you think so? Besides, you are so strong and powerful, why should I uphold those goddamn martial virtues?”
Fane laughed sinisterly. He pointed the long sword in his grip at the other party. “I must kill you today. Otherwise, you're gonna be a huge threat to my Woods family members!”
“Hmph! I’m injured but do you think you have the ability to kill me?”
The bald man’s face was full of sweat, cold, and clammy. With one hand holding his huge hammer, he directly leaped up high and smashed down furiously at Fane.
