Chapter 310
The sword clanked as it moved. Right when it was about to cut Maximus’ neck, a hand reached out and caught it.
“Hm?” Brody lifted his gaze, and his eyes immediately shook in fear. “I-it’s you!” He had been too focused on Maximus to notice the legend standing behind the man.
“Is it worth grieving over a woman who doesn’t deserve it?” Dustin ignored Brody and stared straight at Maximus “If what you want is death, I can grant your wish. I shall forget ever having saved a useless thing as you. But, if you have any bit of ego left in you, as a man, you should stand up straight. You don’t look a bit like a swordsman right now, even though you once said you wanted to be the best swordsman in the world! Wake up!” Then, he gave Maximus a hard slap, sending the latter trembling from the impact. He seemed to have slapped some sense into Maximus, whose eyes had a new sparkle in them.
He noticed Brody’s mean and murderous look, and he took in the look of disgust in Caitlyn’s eyes. Finally, he flashed a rueful smile. “Dustin, you’re right. I shouldn’t grieve and wail over a woman who doesn’t love me. Thank you for that.”
Then, he slowly rose from the ground. He had a determined look after he let go of his obsession. Hid depression and misery had gone, while the internal energy stirred and whirred in the core with signs of a breakthrough.
“Hm?” Dustin raised a brow with surprise. His sharp instinct told him that Maximus would achieve divinity soon!
“What happened?” A few men showed up at that moment, with a middle-aged, clean-shaven man in the lead. The leader seemed harmless and friendly, but his eyes betrayed a wicked quality. The man was, in fact, the second-in-command of Boulderthorn-Luther Williams.
“Dad! You came at the right time!” Brody’s eyes lit up, and he immediately complained to his father. “I met Maximus just now, and he punched me because he was jealous! I’m badly injured- his punch messed up my blood circulation and energy.”
