Norton’s eyes flickered, and a smile appeared on his lips. He suddenly said, “What a great saying. What’s there to hate about being killed when one’s skills are inferior! Zana, today, I, a ‘junior’, would like to seek your guidance on a few moves. Do you dare to fight?!”

When he said this, almost everyone in the Holy Light City could not help being stunned. They almost thought they had heard wrongly.

Zana was stunned for a moment. He stared at Norton and said, “What did you say?”

Norton said word by word, “I said, I want to challenge you! Do you dare to fight?!”

As he spoke, he took a step forward and walked out directly from the deck. He stepped into the void and walked toward Zana step by step. With each step, the aura in his body became more obvious. However, after he had finished speaking, when he walked out of the protective formation of the flying ferry, the powerful aura of a Great Archmage was completely revealed!!

Everyone was shocked again!

Zana’s pupils constricted slightly, and he was bewildered. He blurted out, “Great Archmage! You’re actually a Great Archmage?”

His eyes flickered, and he quickly calmed down from his shock. He snorted and said, “Good, good, good! I was wondering why you were so arrogant. It turns out that you have somehow used some method to reach the Great Archmage realm.”

His words were filled with mockery!

Although it was indeed shocking that Norton had suddenly become a Great Archmage, Zana felt that the other party had definitely not used some ‘normal method’ to increase his level against usual convention. It was very likely some unorthodox method with a great price.

It was not just Zana. Everyone else had also thought so, and they felt that it was very likely.

The Nicholas family clan had probably resorted to extreme methods to increase their strength. Even if they had to pay a huge price, they had to take revenge on the four large family clans!

Norton’s robe fluttered, and his aura was awe-inspiring. He stared at Zana and said, “Cut the crap—do you dare to fight?!”

Killing intent flickered in Zana’s eyes, and a powerful aura erupted from his body. He snorted and said, “Do you really think that just because you have the level of a Great Archmage, you can be arrogant? What a joke! Alright! Since you want to die, I’ll grant you your wish!”

Before he could finish his sentence, he raised his hand and cast a spell. A strong wind howled in the air, instantly forming countless wind blades that enveloped Norton!

The powerful aura of a level-7 Great Archmage erupted from Zana’s body, indicating that he had not held back at all. The magical power around him gathered into a ball, and the others beside him all retreated.

Many people could tell from Zana’s attack that he not only wanted to kill Norton, he also wanted to attack the flying ferry behind Norton!!

Norton had only revealed his magical power realm, but no one could tell his exact level. However, most of them felt that he was most likely inferior to Zana, who was a level-7 Great Archmage.

Buzz!

However, at this moment, an aura that did not belong to Zana erupted from Norton’s body, shocking everyone!

Before anyone could react, they saw a bolt of lightning appear where Norton was, and his figure disappeared!

There was a loud rumble!

Immediately after, a thunderous explosion sounded from where Norton was!

Zana’s eyes were filled with killing intent, but he looked shocked and furious. In fact, he was clear-headed. After more than 200 years of cultivation, his state of mind was naturally not bad. When he attacked, he did not underestimate Norton. He had already considered many contingency moves. Even if Norton dodged or blocked his attack, the subsequent attacks would still follow.

However, even though he had already been cautious, he had still miscalculated!

First, it was Norton’s true level. Zana could not believe that the other party was actually a level-7 Great Archmage like him!

Then, there was Norton’s speed. Even though they were of the same level, Zana did not even see how the other party had disappeared!!

Everything happened in an instant. Just as Zana was horrified, he felt a strong sense of danger coming from the right!

Without thinking, all the magical power in his body erupted. He suddenly turned around and raised his hand to defend.

“Pfft!” But at this moment, a soft sound came from Zana’s body, and his movements instantly froze!

A hand that seemed to be wrapped in lightning pierced through the protective magical power barrier outside his body, and then a palm like a knife instantly pierced through his chest.

Boom! Boom! Boom! At the same time, a deafening rumble sounded. The magical power Zana had used just now had struck the defensive formation of the flying ferry!

The faint golden formation barrier flickered a few times until the magical power ended. The barrier also disappeared—and the flying ferry remained unmoved!

However, no one was in the mood to pay attention to the powerful defensive formation of the flying ferry. Everyone looked in disbelief at where Zana was.

Almost no one could see clearly how Norton had moved in front of Zana. He was so fast that Zana did not even have the chance to defend or dodge before he was instantly killed!!

At this moment, Zana’s eyes were wide open, and his gaze had already started to become not focused. His movements were stiff as he lowered his head to look at the arm that had pierced into his chest. He opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but no sound came out. He only spat out a mouthful of blood, and his aura dissipated rapidly. The life force in his eyes also dissipated in a few seconds!

Zana did not have the chance to escape with his spirit because Norton had shattered his Golden Pill the moment he pierced his chest!

Norton retracted his right hand expressionlessly. With a shake of his magical power, he removed the blood from his hand, and Zana’s corpse fell.

Only then did many people wake up in shock!!

“Father!”

“Family head!!”

Screams could be heard. Everyone from the Treis family clan was horrified. Daniel flew out and caught the falling Zana, his eyes filled with shock, anger, and disbelief.

Dead, he was really dead!!

After catching Zana’s body, Daniel had no choice but to accept reality. The flames of anger burned in his eyes as he looked at Norton and roared, “You! How dare you!”

“Why?” Norton was not afraid of Daniel’s glare at all. He said calmly, “What’s there to complain about being killed when his skills are inferior?”

These words had been said by Zana earlier, and were now returned by Norton.

Daniel was shocked and furious. The magical power in his body surged, but he held it in in the end. He stared fixedly at Norton and squeezed out a few words from between his teeth. “Good, good, good! The head of the Nicholas family clan is really good!!”

It was not that he did not want to attack, but he did not dare. Norton’s method of instantly killing Zana was too astonishing. Even Daniel, a level-8 Great Archmage, had not seen the other party’s moves clearly. He was not confident that he could deal with him!

Moreover, was the other party really only a level-7 Great Archmage? When he was moving just now, there seemed to be an instantaneous eruption, but Daniel was not sure.

As such, the others were not in a better mood than Daniel. Most of them were even more horrified.

It could be said that apart from the few Great Archmagi of the Nicholas family clan, no one could believe what they were seeing. The head of the Treis family clan, a level-7 Great Archmage, had been instantly killed!!
