"I only used less than a tenth of my strength. You were the one who did the most damage," Rocky responded with a shrug.
Upon closer inspection, Norma discovered that she had mostly caused Cory's grave wounds. No trace of Rocky's power was detected at all. She realized that she was tricked into killing Cory.
"I'm going to kill you!" Norma shouted murderously, her beautiful face now contorted by ferocity.
Just then, several figures rushed into the yard. With Xavier leading the group in front, they were all shocked by what they saw.
"What the hell is going on?" Xavier demanded.
"Captain Xavier, you've arrived just in time! This woman slaughtered people left and right once she arrived, including Cory. She wanted revenge. I was unable to stop her since I'm no match for her!" Rocky explained as he pointed at Norma and pretended to be the victim.
"How dare you blame me?" Norma bellowed with fierce, wide eyes.
"How dare you attack my people at my place, you bitch?" Xavier was so enraged that he immediately conjured a powerful strike with the spiritual power at the seventh grade.
Although Norma was at seventh grade of the Spirit Realm as well, she knew that Xavier was the top master of the realm in all of Sword Spirit City. She didn't dare challenge him and was startled. She shot Rocky a venomous glare before she stretched her body and flew upwards to disappear among the rooftops.
"Catch her!" Xavier commanded his team behind him.
The members of the Wolf Team immediately flew up and chased after Norma.
"You came at just the right time, Captain Xavier! If you arrived any later, she might have killed Cory." Rocky pretended to be frightened as he looked at Cory who remained on the ground teetering on death's edge.
"Why are you here?" Xavier asked with narrowed, cold eyes.
"I'm here for my team," Rocky gestured towards the Cloudlet Team members who were hanging upside down from a gigantic tree.
"Cory, you idiot!" Xavier understood clearly now and scowled at Cory who remained on the ground.
But what Xavier didn't understand was why that woman attacked him. He'd have to wait for him to regain consciousness to find out.
"If there's nothing else for us to discuss, I'll get back to help my team now," Rocky said. After finishing his words, Rocky walked to the big tree and put down the members of the Cloudlet Team.
"Don't speak. Come with me!" Rocky ordered them in a low voice as they began to leave.
However, before Rocky's figure disappeared, the eyes of Xavier had been fixed on Rocky all the time.
When Rocky sent the injured members back to the lounge, he saw Eliseo rushing back with his men. Seeing that Rocky and the members were safe and sound, he was relieved and asked what happened.
On the way back, Rocky instructed his team members to not divulge any details regarding what just happened. Later, when they were questioned, they answered that they fainted and didn't remember anything after. The rest was to be explained by Rocky.
Rocky briefly explained to Eliseo that it was all due to Cory who was beaten badly by a mysterious woman who appeared out of nowhere.
"Cory has gone too far. He's become too reckless with Xavier's support!" Eliseo exclaimed furiously.
"He's certainly learned his lesson now. Even if he doesn't die, he'll most likely wake up handicapped," Rocky replied.
"Those who've committed numerous sins deserve death. He deserves it!" Eliseo spat.
The next day, news of Cory being sent back to his original sect spread all over the Sword Spirit Sect like wildfire. He was left disabled due to all his destroyed meridians from his encounter with the mysterious woman. The sect could do nothing more but send him back to his original sect for treatment.
