"I didn't expect you to face my thunder spear head-on. You aren't willing to sacrifice anything, but you want to stay alive. How delusional…"
Derkley listened to his review while lying in the crater. Wilbur could not tell whether he looked regretful or angry.
Derkley had schemed for so long to have the power to rule everything.
If he chose to give up all the power he stole, what was the point of all those years he spent scheming?
Derkley coughed violently and said, "I must admit that you're very powerful, but do you think you can leave Cametra alive if you kill me? You should know that Mister Mondorra will avenge me as long as I don't betray him. You will be hunted down by the Rian Brotherhood. There will be no peace for you…"
Derkley knew at that moment he could not survive, but he hoped to traumatize Wilbur with his words. He wanted to affect his mind, which would affect his cultivation.
Wilbur saw right through Derkley's petty trick. He slowly approached the crater, squatting down, and looked at the barely-breathing Derkley as he mocked, "I don't know how powerful Mondorra is, and I don't know how many people are in the Rian Brotherhood. However, I'll show those who dare to stand in my way that their efforts mean nothing in front of absolute power! I'm done talking now. It's time for you to accept the punishment for your sins."
With that, Wilbur gently made a slicing motion with two fingers. Invisible spiritual energy turned into blade energy and lopped Derkley's head clean off.
Wilbur watched the head roll to the side coldly. He did not plan to carry Derkley's head around while looking for the culprit who abducted Lacey and Eliana.
