The Man's Decree novel Chapter 50

Chapter 50 Injuring With A Mere Leaf

Luca could feel his face burning hotly. He distinctly sensed that Steven had held back when the latter kicked him. But as Walter’s bodyguard, he was beyond mortified, especially when a crowd was watching. Right then, he would rather be beaten to death than admit defeat.

After all, martial artists regarded their dignity as of far greater import than their lives. If I were to admit defeat today, my reputation would be thereby tarnished! Not only will I be unable to survive in this circle in the future, but Walter will also probably terminate my services!

“You don’t have to hold back, Steven. I don’t mind dying today, but I can’t lose!”

As soon as he finished speaking, his face turned bright red, and his body started swelling.

“Storm Fist!”

Following that bellow, his body seemingly deflated in the blink of an eye and returned to normal. However, his body flew out like a cannonball.

Steven frowned and snapped, “It looks like you’re not going to give up unless I use my ultimate technique!”

He crouched slightly, upon which the marble floor under his feet promptly cracked, and his clothes billowed though there was no wind.

“Here I come!”

Luca’s eyes started turning scarlet, and he struck the man hard.

Boom!

The earth-splitting sound sounded just like thunder, causing everyone to cover their ears at once.

Steven remained unmoved, his body as still as a statue. In other words, the blow hadn’t hurt him in the slightest.

Luca was nonplussed, but his fists then started raining down on the man in the next moment.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

“That’s about enough!” Right after saying that, Steven threw his fist out.

The two men’s fists collided. Luca flew out, slamming heavily on the ground, unable to get to his feet for some time.

“He’s my mentor. I learned the Impenetrable Skill from him.”

When Steven’s answer drifted into Luca’s ears, he became morose. Sighing, he shook his head and remarked, “No wonder I’m not your match. It turns out that you’ve gotten Mr. Yancey to be your mentor. I admit defeat.”

The man surprisingly admitted defeat. He initially wanted to fight to the death, but he yielded after hearing Francis’ name.

Jared’s brows furrowed slightly, and he turned to Tommy. “Who’s this Francis Yancey?”

“He’s an expert in ancient martial arts and possesses great internal energy. No one knows his true capability, but rumor has it that he can injure someone with a mere leaf!”

When Tommy spoke of Francis, fear lingered within him.

“Injure someone with a mere leaf?” Jared chuckled softly. “Like this?”

As he said that, he picked up a toothpick. With a flick of his finger, it shot right at Steven.

Steven hadn’t even the time to react when the toothpick penetrated his arm with only a tiny bit sticking out.
