Barusami looked at the eighth prince and raised the already prepared pistol.
Although he was a Nen ability user, shooting and killing the ordinary Saliesa Ray and the princess with a single gun was enough.
It wasn't until this moment that the eighth prince seemed to realize the seriousness of the situation; his smile gradually faded, and his two female companions in his arms also paled.
"Someone!"
The princess behind him screamed.
However, the private guards of the Crown Prince had already sealed off the area completely. Standing outside, the few guards around the eighth prince couldn't even see what was happening within the formation, let alone rush over.
Bang!
A blazing bullet shot out from the barrel, aiming for the eighth prince's forehead.
Barusami heaved a sigh of relief—the task assigned to him by the lord was complete!
He might die himself… but he felt infinitely satisfied.
Because he was originally just an ordinary person. His wife was seriously ill, and if it weren't for the Fels family… he wouldn't have a happy family, wouldn't have children, and certainly wouldn't have become a Nen ability user. So, his dedication to the Fels family was voluntary.
Barusami slowly lowered his gun arm, as if witnessing the scene of the eighth prince falling face-up.
But just then… a violent gust of wind suddenly arrived.
The terrifying force of the wind caused everyone around, including Crown Prince Benjamin, to involuntarily raise their arms to block in front of their faces, unable to open their eyes.
"This…"
After the strange phenomenon disappeared, everyone was stunned by the scene before them.
Especially Barusami, who was dumbfounded.
They saw a tall, majestic figure standing in front of Saliesa Ray, clenched fist, and with bare hands, caught the bullet that was originally aimed at the eighth prince's head.
Under the blinding sunlight, the appearance of the shadow in front was unclear.
"You gang… are really impatient. I thought you'd come up with a better plan," a calm voice with a faint smile entered their ears.
Barusami finally saw the face of the person—long, tied-up black hair, and a thick, waist-length beard, with piercing eyes that carried an awe-inspiring, tremor-inducing sense of intimidation. The most eye-catching was his attire, resembling an ancient long robe, and his physique was not just muscular but towering.
Alone, he made Barusami instinctively think of the word 'majestic.'
"It's him!"
A few of the Crown Prince's guards nearby changed expression.
They had seen this person before—he had come to visit Benjamin.
Beyond Netero.
Bang bang bang!
Barusami instantly snapped back to his senses and frantically opened fire on the mysterious man who suddenly appeared in the scene.
But it was useless even as he emptied his magazine…
The crisp sound of shell casings hitting the ground was especially piercing.
"Nen ability user!"
Barusami's expression darkened.
Just as he prepared to rush forward, suddenly, his entire body froze in place.
Because… the aura emanating from the other person revealed a message.
That is… if he dared to move, he would undoubtedly die.
This close-range pressure even caused hallucinations in Barusami's mind—he 'saw' himself lying dead on the spot.
"So powerful… too powerful… I will die."
Barusami's lips went dry, and cold sweat instantly broke out.
Compared to the other's aura, his own was so weak it could almost be ignored; if the opponent was Haku Moon, he would be a mere speck of light.
This person's Nen aura had already completely covered this space and devoured his own aura…
Total suppression.
"Still… a bit capable."
Beyond's eye moved slightly, staring at Barusami, and lightly praised.
Ordinary Nen ability users, if their willpower isn't strong, wouldn't even be able to fire those follow-up shots.
In the scene, not only Barusami, but also the Crown Prince and his private guards, were enveloped by an invisible aura, afraid to act rashly.
"Move aside!"
Benjamin took a deep breath, staring intently at Beyond.
He… seemed to recognize the old man's identity!
In the royal family, Benjamin held a status and position far beyond other princes, and enjoyed a high rank within the military… He was somewhat aware of Nasbi Gray Guo Rou's actions, and also understood that the person in front was seeking some cooperation with the king.
Beyond revealed a row of white teeth, looking at Benjamin. "From now on… the disputes here are no longer your princes' concern."
"..."
Benjamin.
The Crown Prince waved his hand, and his private guards immediately took formation. Soldiers obey orders as their duty.
Even though they could see that the man in front was extremely powerful, as long as the Crown Prince issued an order, they would still attack.
Boom!
This junior, Benjamin, was so disrespectful. Beyond's eyes turned cold. The Nen aura inside him suddenly erupted again like a tidal wave, sweeping in all directions… This time, the aura, combined with his personal willpower, brushed over everyone's bodies, making it seem as if everyone was standing naked in a freezing, snowy landscape.
They couldn't even control their trembling bodies, let alone move.
Even Benjamin himself shivered uncontrollably, unable to suppress his physiological reaction.
"You little guys… compared to Nasbi Gray Guo Rou, you're really far behind."
Beyond snorted with a smile.
His gaze shifted back to Barusami. "What about him?"
He didn't attack; just the pressure from his aura made Barusami's Nen seem to vanish as if it no longer existed.
He couldn't even be manipulated.
In front of Beyond, Barusami now looked like an ordinary person without Nen abilities.
It wasn't that Beyond's Nen had a devouring effect—simply, this aura affected Barusami… changing his state, making him unable to control his abilities… his mental fluctuations were intense.
It was over.
Barusami realized that the appearance of this person had undoubtedly caused his plan to fail… With the power of the Fels family and the strategist's schemes, he was not too worried this time—there would be next time. Now, all he could do was… commit suicide!
Thinking this, Barusami forcibly stimulated his oral sensory nerves, trying to break through this mental pressure with the limited control he had over his body—closing his jaws in an attempt to bite his tongue and end his life.
But it failed.
Beyond saw his intentions and suddenly reached out, grabbing Barusami's cheeks.
"Haha… good boy, quite spirited."
After speaking, Beyond tilted his head back and looked around, laughing loudly. "You're nearby, right?"
"Don't hide… or I'll really kill you…"
Before he finished speaking, Beyond's pupils shrank.
Because, from the corner of his eye, he saw faint wisps of green mist spreading from beneath his and others' feet.
"Huh?"
He was about to react when suddenly, a black shadow descended from the sky.
Carrying an incredible force, one foot stomped on Beyond's arm, which was grabbing Barusami.
The immense power instantly threw Beyond off balance.
His entire arm smashed into the ground, dirt flying everywhere… like thunder.
Centered on the two of them, the ground sank, forming a terrifying deep pit.
Smoke and dust billowed, and the gray mist drifting with the clouds made the light in this corner extremely murky.
Kneeling on one knee, Beyond, leaning forward, looked at the foot on his arm, cracked his lips, and slowly raised his head.
"Who gave you… permission to touch my people?"
Beyond bowed his head, looking at the kneeling Beyond in front of him, and said coldly, one word at a time.
His face was filled with a smile at this moment.
