Jenifer's face turned pale upon hearing Homer's lewd words. She had no doubt about what he intended to do.
"Help! Help! Darren, help!" she cried out in a panicked voice.
Homer laughed coldly. "That won't work," he said. "I have blocked this room, so no one outside can hear you. But don't worry! I will remove the blockades when I have you, so that your little valentine will be able to hear your cries of passion."
Homer was becoming more and more excited. He could hardly restrain himself from grabbing Jenifer immediately.
"Go away!" she shouted at him.
But he moved closer.
"Please leave me alone," she pleaded.
Homer laughed again.
"I know women always say the opposite of what they really mean," he taunted.
He leaned over Jenifer. There was a sharp cracking sound.
Before Homer could touch her, black lightning appeared and wrapped around his arm. He was stunned as the force of the lightning hurled him backwards, away from Jenifer.
'Is this the tribulation thunder?' he thought.
His arm felt numb and painful where the lightning had struck him. However, he was able to mobilize his god's power and expel it in time in order to prevent the tribulation thunder from harming his torso and head.
As he struggled to get up, a figure in white materialized in front of him.
It was the Rule Soul Avatar, who was possessed of a very strong Spirit Power. It had been easy for him to detect Homer sneaking in. Moreover, his silvery eyes had recovered a little. He could sense the slightest fluctuation of other power from the vibration of the law silk threads.
Indeed, he had sensed Homer's presence almost immediately.
But the Rule Soul Avatar was curious about what Homer planned to do, so he held back and observed him secretly for a while.
However, as soon as he realized that Homer was going to hurt Jenifer, he had no choice but to intervene. Of course, he couldn't let such a thing happen. He came at once to stop Homer from assaulting Jenifer.
"You're so powerful, huh? Did you know all along I was here?
Let me make something clear. The little beauty is mine today!" Homer said as he stood. He smirked at the two of them.
A flash of Killing Law shot out from the Rule Soul Avatar's silver gray eyes.
Instantly, the law force slashed at the shackles on Jenifer's body.
As soon as she was freed, Jenifer jumped out of the bed.
"You go first," the Rule Soul Avatar said indifferently.
She ran to the Rule Soul Avatar.
"I want to kill him with you!" she said angrily. She was at the low-level of the Celestial God Realm. She would have been able to resist Homer on her own if she hadn't been shackled.
"Are you sure?" said the Rule Soul Avatar.
"I'm more powerful than you, Darren. I want to help kill him," Jenifer said again.
The Rule Soul Avatar gazed at Homer, gauging his cultivation level. "He is at the middle-level of the Celestial God Realm," he said calmly.
That was a level higher than Jenifer's. She stepped back. "Then let's run away together," she urged him.
"If I have to watch over you, it will be harder for me. Better for you to leave now while I hold him off, and I will be able to escape after you," the Rule Soul Avatar answered.
"Darren, please be careful. Escape him as soon as possible," she said. The whole communication had taken place through their spiritual sense. As soon as Jenifer understood what she needed to do, she started to leave.
But Homer wasn't about to let her go so easily. "Not so fast," he said. "I'm not done with you yet!"
In an instant, he was by her side, about to grab her.
With a crack, Jenifer pulled out a whip and lashed out at Homer.
At the same time, the Rule Soul Avatar also took action. He made a strange gesture with his hands. In an instant, tens of thousands of attacking laws descended, including many laws related to invasion, interference and illusion.
The laws interfered with Homer's senses and reflexes, and he was unable to dodge Jenifer's whip. A bloody mark appeared on his shoulder.
