Chapter 1754

Everyone’s gaze turned towards Falcon.

Falcon–looked dazed and murmured, “H–How is this possible? How does this b*stard

know my moves?”

Xan, however, remained expressionless as he resumed his stance. The contempt he

once held for Emmanuel had vanished from his eyes.

This guy in front of him was indeed a martial arts genius.

Could he truly master techniques that balance strength and softness?

Others thought the same. They did not know the Art of Adaptability and assumed

Emmanuel had trained in countless martial arts styles.

No one could have guessed that Emmanuel now possessed an extraordinary talent for

Chapter 1754 A Fateful Confrontation in the Shadow

memorizing and replicating martial arts moves instantly.

“Let’s see if you can block this move!”

Xan suddenly drew two daggers, their blades shining fiercely in the firelight.

Even with his eyes closed, Emmanuel could feel a surge of violent killing intent

enveloping Xan.

The surrounding members of the Ophanim Clan gasped and stepped back in fear.

There were very few on Dark Night Island who could force Xan to draw his weapons.

This time, the leader of the Black Wolf Team had truly gone overboard.

“Die!” Xan swung his daggers, their fierce light flashing like thunder, ready to strike.

Emmanuel felt a sense of unease, beads of sweat forming on his forehead. His current

fighting spirit couldn’t compare to what he had in the Ivory Tower.

He didn’t want a fight to the death with Xan.

“Stop!”

At the last moment, a commanding voice rang out, causing even the cold and arrogant

Xan to immediately halt.

The members of the Ophanim Clan stood respectfully with one hand on their chests.

“Boss!”

“Greetings, Boss!”

As a rugged man emerged from the main building, everyone called out in unison.

Emmanuel also felt an overwhelming sense of oppression!

The man before him was cloaked in red with piercing eyes. His presence was akin to an

ancient, towering mountain, casting a shadow over the sky.

It felt as though this man could crush his already injured body at any moment.

“Boss!”

Xan respectfully called out and then stepped behind Rhett.

Rhett didn’t respond to anyone. His sharp gaze fixed on Emmanuel.

Emmanuel couldn’t help but stand upright, feeling a strange sensation as if this person

was a legendary figure from centuries past.

Who is he?

Without a word, Rhett walked past Emmanuel toward the building’s entrance.

Everyone watched him silently, not daring to speak.

The sense of authority felt like the rigid social hierarchy of ancient times, where

commoners wouldn’t dare offend noble royalty.

It wasn’t until Rhett walked by that Emmanuel suddenly snapped out of it and quickly

followed.

As the leader of the Black Wolf Team, he couldn’t walk behind Rhett but instead walked

shoulder to shoulder with him.

Despite being a six–foot–tall special forces soldier, he seemed tiny next to Rhett.

Suddenly, Rhett placed his hands on the stone door and, with sheer force, pried it open.

Emmanuel was stunned. This man’s brute strength is terrifying!

Rhett finally spoke with those two words. Then, he walked out of the building.

The Ophanim Clan members had no idea what their boss was thinking.

Emmanuel didn’t know either but still followed him and slowly walked. They reached a

place littered with broken walls and obvious signs of damage.

After examining the area, he asked in surprise, “Did you cause all this destruction?”

Rhett looked at him with an impassive expression. “How did you know?”

Emmanuel just smiled without answering. Why would I tell everyone that I can identify

the unique force and range of each martial artist’s techniques after mastering the Art of

Adaptability?

“Yes, I caused most of this damage.” Rhett nodded.

“Did you fight someone here?” Emmanuel continued, “The opponent was agile, leaving

few traces. Most of the damage is your doing!”

“Hahaha!” Rhett finally laughed, showing expression for the first time.

His laughter was hearty, revealing an inner warmth that didn’t quite match his

stone–cold image.
