Chapter 116
Marco disappeared in a flash, leaving Yara frozen in place while Polo kept charging at her!
Yara was trying to threaten Marco so that she could be free, but now that Marco withdrew,
she somehow could not move.
She felt as if there was an unseen power keeping her in place, her limbs seemingly held in
place by four threads.
Soon, she was watching as Polo’s fist approached her face!
“Shit,” Yara swore under her breath and closed her eyes in reflex.
But at that very moment, Frank whipped out a silver needle and flicked it at Yara’s elbow.
Yara’s body lurched as she suddenly launched a punch!
Pow!
Right after that, Yara stumbled backward and landed in Frank’s arms.
“Don’t move,” he whispered into her ears, putting a hand on her shoulder.
There were indeed four threads attached to Yara, connecting her to Jaud’s palm.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtNo one could see the threads under the sun, and it was Jaud who kept her frozen in place
just now, directing his vigor to immobilize her limbs!
Yara frowned–even now, she could not move her limbs at all, let alone free herself from
the threads!
Frank narrowed his eyes just then. “We’re just sparring, Mr. White. There’s no need for the
next round or to go so far as to get Yara killed, right?”
Jaud chuckled. “Don’t worry, Mr. Lawrence. I would’ve pulled Ms. Quill out of harm’s way
even if you didn’t make your move just now. As you’ve put it, we’re just sparring–there’s
no need for anyone to get hurt.”
“In that case, release the threads.”
Jaud simply smiled at Frank. “Come now, Mr. Lawrence. As a fellow mentor of martial arts,
don’t tell me you can’t undo these threads?”
Frank’s eyes turned cool. “I warned you.”
unleashed his vigor right then, leaving Yara horrified when she felt the
og burst of pure energy behind her!
Chapter 116.
Jaud pushed as well, his vigor colliding endlessly against Frank’s on the threads!
It was only then that Yara saw the crimson flash on the pure–white threads as vigor struck
vigor on the threads as thin as hair.
It was a competition of strength and control–the men’s manipulation of their vigor was
certainly a competition between the very best!
Snap!
Suddenly, all four threads were severed audibly.
Frank stumbled backward seven times but stamped his foot, shattering the tiles beneath
as he caught his balance.
At the same time, his eyes flashed with icy contempt!
On the other hand, Jaud only stumbled one step backward, but astonishment showed all
over his face.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmBetween them, Yara was unscathed thanks to Frank’s protection, and it appeared to her
that Frank lost this round.
Hurrying to his side, she asked, “Are you alright, Mr. Lawrence?”
Frank shook his head as he dusted his shirt.
Then, leveling his gaze at Jaud, he said coolly, “It’s kind of you to hold back.”
Jaud, meanwhile, was gritting his teeth as he slowly said, “Your prowess is astounding, Mr.
Lawrence. The young invariably surpass their elders, as they like to say.”
Both Marco and Polo were perplexed–Frank was the one sent stumbling backward, while
their mentor virtually never moved.
So why were they talking as if Frank had won?
“Are you alright, Mr. White?” Both of them asked.
“I’m fine,” Jaud said, shaking his head.
Just then, the door to the private room slowly opened, while Vicky and Donald stepped
out.
“What’s going on here?“Vicky promptly asked.
“Nothing, Mr. White there just requested a little sparring session,” Frank said nonchalantly.
