Chapter 491: The Battle Went Too Far and Was Stopped in Time

Serene Spring City.

When Vincent brought Benjamin out of the space tunnel, Melissa had jumped down from the city wall and rushed toward the battlefield. Meanwhile, Winnie raised her sword. She was prepared to meet her enemy. The two women were ready to fight.

Vincent quickly let out a soft cry, “Quickly go and separate them!”

He wanted to step forward to stop the two women.

However, Benjamin did not step forward to stop them. Instead, he pulled Vincent back.

Benjamin said nervously, “Wait! My wife has already made her move, you must not go over! Once she gets angry, she will kill anyone who gets in her way!”

Vincent turned his head blankly and looked at Benjamin with a frown, “With just your wife? She can’t hurt me!”

Benjamin said with a troubled look, “I’m afraid that you’ll hurt my wife!”

Vincent shook off Benjamin’s hand and said with a frown, “I’m afraid she’ll hurt my disciple!” He then turned around and continued to walk toward the battlefield.

Benjamin continued to chase after Vincent and opened his arms to block Vincent. He said with certainty, “No matter what, you can’t go near my wife today! If you really want to stop them, then kill me first!”

Vincent shook his head helplessly and asked in a deep voice, “You’re usually afraid of your wife, right?”

Benjamin looked at Vincent with a straight face and said carefully, “I’m not afraid! I am respecting my wife!”

Vincent sighed and said, “If you had a little bit of courage, you would have already separated the two of them!”

Benjamin swallowed his saliva nervously and said firmly, “No, since my wife has already made her move, if I don’t let her finish the fight, she will be very angry. When that time comes, I will be the unlucky one! Right now, your disciple and my wife will exchange a few moves. Their lives will not be in danger. My wife is not a bloodthirsty person. She still knows how to behave. Please believe me!”

Vincent looked at the stubborn Benjamin and turned to look at Melissa, who was fighting Winnie on the battlefield. He could not help but feel a little helpless. He nodded and said, “Since you guaranteed that your wife will not kill anybody, then I will give in. But as long as she is a threat to Melissa’s safety, I will immediately take action. When that happens, no matter what the consequences are, you have to take responsibility yourself!”

Benjamin knew that he did not have the ability to bargain in front of Vincent. In addition, he was very confident and understood his wife well. Therefore, he nodded and said, “Okay, we will do as you say!”

Vincent nodded and did not say anything else. He turned his head to look at the battlefield where the two women were fighting.

Melissa’s cultivation had been professionally trained in the Carter family since she was young. Later, she received the modification authority that Vincent had taught her, as well as the Devil Dragon’s Spine. As a result of that, her strength had increased greatly. Although her level had not yet reached level 40, she had the ability to protect herself!

Winnie, on the other hand, was one of the strongest level 40 creatures that Vincent had ever seen. She did not make any unnecessary movements during the battle. Every strike was aimed at Melissa’s weakness. Every move she made was swift and decisive. If the opponent was not determined, they would immediately beg for mercy in just a few moves.

However, Melissa was not an ordinary woman. Her determination and bold aura made many men feel ashamed. No matter how fierce Winnie’s attacks were, she would only clench her teeth and resist her. She would not retreat in the slightest!

Moreover, her Devil Dragon’s Spine was malleable. It could be turned into soft whips or long swords. Its attacking methods were ever-changing. They gave Melissa a lot of leeway to deal with Winnie. For a moment, she did not show any signs of defeat when facing Winnie.

Vincent could not help but be amazed by the scene. He did not train Melissa’s combat strength personally. However, she had already achieved much greatness. At the very least, her skills were much more mature than Dave’s current knife skills!

Winnie suddenly seized a flaw in Melissa’s attack and leaned forward. She held her sword against Melissa’s neck. She raised her slender eyebrows and asked in a deep voice, “Little girl, how dare you steal my man? Let’s see where you can run to!”

Melissa, on the other hand, did not seem bothered by it at all. She was still trying her best to wave the Devil Dragon’s Spine in her hands.

Her Devil Dragon’s Spine had already turned into soft edges. It began to tremble gently. She then used the Devil Dragon’s Spine to draw an arc in the air and stabbed at Winnie’s back.

Although Winnie was not alert at first, she heard wind behind her. She sneered and said, “You want to exchange your life with mine? Dream on!”

As soon as she finished speaking, Winnie’s wrist that was holding the sword moved forward. She was ready to stab the blade into Melissa’s throat.

Melissa reacted very fast. The moment the longsword stabbed forward, she fell backward rapidly.

At the same time, a space door suddenly opened under Melissa’s body, causing the falling Melissa to disappear instantly, leaving only half of the Devil Dragon’s Spine behind.

Winnie was obviously confused. She did not expect Melissa to have such a magical method. However, she also knew that she did not have the time to be shocked at that moment. She swung her sword to block her behind casually and deflected the Devil Dragon’s Spine that was thrusting at her.

At that moment, the Devil Dragon’s Spine began to twitch rapidly. It was trying to retreat into the space tunnel.

“Don’t even think about running!” shouted Winnie.

She raised her sword and rushed toward the space door. Although she did not understand modification authority, she could guess that if the Devil Dragon’s Spine did not completely enter the space tunnel, the illusory space door could not be closed. This gave her a chance to chase after Melissa.

However, before Winnie could walk into the space door, another space door opened quietly beside her. Melissa then walked out from the space door, waving the Devil Dragon’s Spine in her hand. She whipped it toward Winnie from the side!

Her Devil Dragon’s Spine, which was circling in the air, shrank into the first space door at lightning speed. It then flew out from the second space door, whipping toward Winnie’s wrist ruthlessly.

Winnie’s pitch-black eyes were immediately filled with a strong demonic aura. At the same time, the longsword in her hand had turned pitch-black in an instant. It turned into illusory afterimages.

Countless black sword shadows overlapped in the air and finally formed a shield full of spikes.

The Devil Dragon’s Spine struck the illusory shield and was instantly repelled by it. It was as if the sword shadows were solid!

Winnie shouted angrily, “Even if you slip like a loach today, you will die for sure!”

Countless sword shadows that formed the shield earlier instantly flew forward. They were like countless sharp and swift arrows shooting toward Melissa.

Melissa immediately coiled the whip in her hand into a ball, blocking the black sword lights in front of her. At the same time, she leaned her body back slowly. She was prepared to retreat into the space tunnel.

Winnie noticed Melissa’s small movements.

How could she miss the opportunity in front of her?

She hid behind the black sword lights and quietly threw the sword in her hand into the air.

After the sword flew to a certain height, its blade changed its shape, and it began to fall downward rapidly. Its target was exactly one inch from the space gate.

If Melissa continued to retreat into the space tunnel, she would be pierced through by the falling sword!

What was even more terrifying was that the attack was silent. Melissa did not realize that there was a real weapon mixed in with the black sword shadows.

Benjamin, who was watching the battle from the side, immediately cried out in surprise, “Not good, madam is getting serious!”

Vincent, who was at the side, did not wait for Benjamin to finish his sentence. He pushed him aside and rushed toward Melissa, who was about to walk into the trap.

At that moment, a green light shot down from the top of Serene Spring City, arriving on the battlefield before Vincent.

“City Lord Melissa, be careful behind you!”

The green light that shone on Melissa instantly disappeared, and Horace’s figure appeared instead. He reminded her loudly and grabbed her at the same time.

Melissa, who had yet to react to what had happened, looked at Horace in confusion. Suddenly, a chill swept past her back, causing her to break out in cold sweat.

Melissa turned her head to look behind her. She realized that a long sword had brushed past her back and plunged into the soil. Only the hilt of the sword was left exposed on the ground. From this, one could see how sharp the sword was.

If she were to be struck by the sword, she would have died!

Melissa turned her head to look at Horace and said gratefully, “Mr. Horace, thank you!”

Horace shook his head slightly and said with a serious face, “There’s no need to thank me for such a small matter. It’s just that this City Lord Winnie is too powerful. If you continue fighting, it will not be advantageous to you. If you can’t take it, I can fight for you instead!”

Melissa shook her head and said decisively, “How can that be? You’ve just recovered from your injuries. How can I let you take the risk again?”

Horace immediately said, “We’re all doing this for the elves, why should we care about life and death?”

Melissa was very touched by Horace’s words and did not know what to say for a moment.

At that moment, Winnie, who was about to continue attacking, suddenly chose to stop when she heard Horace’s words. She stood on the spot and looked at Horace.

At the same time, Vincent had just arrived. He stood in the middle of both sides and said in a deep voice, “Everyone stop!”

“Master, you’re here!”

Melissa instantly revealed a smile and walked forward to greet Vincent.

After Horace saw Vincent, he also bowed very formally.

After all, Vincent was a god of the Elf Race. His status was extraordinary. Horace, who had always held faith in high regard, did not dare to cross the line in the slightest.

Vincent nodded lightly at Melissa and Horace. He then turned to look at Winnie, and said with a helpless expression, “Your man was previously invited by me to visit some place special. Now that I’ve sent him back to you, if there are any problems in the future, you can just directly settle the score with me!”
