Chapter 123

When Jessica took Jonathan's phone and glanced at it, she realized that the name “Jen” was on thescreen. She was in no mood to answer Jennifer's call, so she was about to end it.

Amber, who was at the side, saw that Jennifer was the one calling as well. Almost immediately, ragebegan boiling in her. She then said to Jessica, “I'll answer it!”

Jessica froze for a second, but without saying anything else, she handed the phone to Amber.

After accepting the call, and before Amber could say anything, Jennifer's cold voice traveled out of thespeaker. “Some of your things are still here, so please come and get them as soon as possible.”

Amber then glanced at Jonathan, who was risking his life in the fight on the stage, and thought abouthow Jennifer was the reason for everything that had happened. Yet, Jennifer seemed to still beungrateful. Thus, she sneered. “Jennifer Hoffman, who do you think you are? What right do you have tospeak with Jonathan like this?”

Upon hearing her voice, Jennifer stiffened as she did not expect Amber to pick up the call.

However, when she came back to her senses, she turned angrier—she was furious about howJonathan had asked Amber to pick up the call and how harsh the latter's words were.

Taking a deep breath, Jennifer said, “Ms. Johnson, this is between Jonathan and me. Please haveJonathan answer the call instead. He's a big boy. There's no way he would avoid a phone call, right?”

Glancing at the stage again, Amber replied through gritted teeth, “Jennifer, you're the scummiestwoman I've ever come across. Jonathan has done so many things for you, but you're not worth his

effort. Did you really think that Winnie's recovery was a miracle? Jonathan signed a liability waiver formand had someone cure Winnie. That night, he came, despite knowing that he would certainly die. Hehad to come because that someone has asked him to. Have you ever said a word of thanks to him forall that he has given to you, you scumbag?”

After hissing that out, Amber ended the call.

Jennifer went pale as a shudder wracked her body. For a moment, she was dumbfounded.

Meanwhile, Jonathan's battle against Lucian was turning more ferocious.

Lucian's Peacock King Strike was as powerful as ever.

Jonathan had dealt several mighty attacks, but Lucian had deflected them all. Conversely, Lucian'sattacks were getting more and more vicious.

Right then, Lucian abruptly took a step closer to Jonathan before swiftly unleashing his Peacock KingStrike in the direction of Jonathan's heart.

Even so, Jonathan did not move away from his spot. Instead, he sucked in a deep breath before usinghis Heart Defense Technique to protect his heart.

When the Peacock King Strike was about to reach him, Jonathan released his breath and unleashed awave of energy that headed straight for the Peacock King Strike.

Bam! Bam!

Jonathan took a quick step back as his attack averted Lucian's Peacock King Strike. Nevertheless,Lucian was unfazed. After Jonathan took a step back, he instantly used his Peacock Tail Swipe.

It was a fierce move that would easily wipe out thousands in the blink of an eye.

After the Peacock Tail Swipe was the Peacock Train Rattle.

Lucian's strike techniques were like the waters of a raging river—neverending and powerful.

That was how Braxton had lost to Lucian. Now, Lucian was using the same trick on Jonathan.

All of a sudden, the look in Jonathan's eyes turned peaceful. He then put one hand on his waist as theother curled into a fist in front of him.

Bam!

After Jonathan forced himself to take Lucian's Peacock Tail Swipe head-on, he flew backward.

That was Unification.

It was also the move that Hector had used when he was up against Jareth.

Jonathan had only observed Hector's fight, but he had already understood the core of Shadow Punch.

A cold glint flashed past Lucian's eyes. In the next second, he rushed over and made his next move todestroy Jonathan's Unification cultivation stage.

Swiftly, Jonathan curled his body before promptly swinging his fist upward in the direction of Lucian'scenter.

Jonathan had multiple tricks up his sleeves, and Lucian was no Jareth. In other words, Lucian was notas mighty as Jareth.

Lucian began feeling the difficulty of fighting against Jonathan, so he hastily changed his stance andbegan using his Peacock King Strike to go up against Jonathan's Skyward Strike.

Yet, Jonathan did not plan to face Lucian head-on and instead used Antelope Rhythm, slipping pastLucian from under his legs.

In response, Lucian crossed his legs, attempting to trap Jonathan in place.

With a cry, Jonathan started using his Tyrant's Might.

Like a soaring bird, he readied himself to send Lucian flying.

If Jonathan succeeded, Lucian would not be able to summon any strength in midair, and he would bedoomed.

However, Lucian was no weakling. The moment Jonathan came into contact with his clothes, henoticed something was amiss. In that split second, Lucian twisted himself to curl around Jonathan.

Upon securing himself around Jonathan, Lucian moved to use his Crocodile Bite to crush Jonathan'sorgans.

Jonathan paled. He never thought Lucian would be so adaptable in a fight as well.

Meanwhile, the martial artists under the stage were wistfully mulling about how terrifying the two werein a battle. Everything Jonathan and Lucian had come up with was impromptu yet powerful.

They were truly adept fighters.

Little Martial Sage, Lucian Yandell, was already a reputable being, and Jonathan was slowly becomingan official martial artist in the martial arts world. Therefore, Jonathan was a talented fighter, as well.

Right as Lucian began summoning strength into his attack, Jonathan curled his body and rolled on theground.

Upon hitting the ground, Lucian threw a speedy kick toward Jonathan.

It was a fight so swift that others could only catch glimpses of their afterimages.

Just then, Jonathan threw out his leg in a Mongrel Attack move.

Their attacks deflected off each other, and the two of them regained their balance by pushingthemselves off the ground with one hand.

The moment they bounced back up, Lucian made a move—another Peacock King Strike.

Jonathan, who was slower than him by a millisecond, rapidly used Rolling Thunder Punch as hiscounterattack. After one loud bang, Jonathan was sent flying backward again.

Dashing forward, Lucian launched his Eagle's Ironclaw toward Jonathan's face.

His fingers, crooked and curled to resemble an eagle's talons, were almost as sharp as blades.

With a deep breath, the next move Jonathan delivered was Satin Palm—his hand shot out to grab theback of Lucian's hand.

Stunned, Lucian jerked and retracted his arm like a startled snake. He managed to dodge Jonathan'sattack.

Nevertheless, Jonathan relentlessly went after him by taking a step forward to assault him with aDragon Claw. Lucian responded with a Major Grab. The longer their battle went on, the more erratictheir moves became.

If any of the two were to lose focus for a second, they would instantly be dead.

It was a fight that would easily strike terror in anyone's heart.

By then, Lucian was forced to face Jonathan. He had to admit that the latter was genuinely a toughopponent.

Bang! Bang!

After the two delivered yet another punch, they quickly retreated a meter away from each other.

By that point, the two were no longer in a rush to charge toward the other.

As a matter of fact, Lucian closed his eyes and began mulling over what had happened earlier. He hadfinally figured out certain things about Nascent Soul from his fight against Jonathan.

With those thoughts in his mind, Lucian began circulating the vitality in his body. He was as still as astatue, but the vitality in him was swirling like a leaf in a tornado. The aura he exuded changed—itbecame soft and pure like a Nascent Soul's.

Without a doubt, Lucian was advancing toward the Nascent Soul level. That very moment was the bestmoment for Jonathan to launch his attack.

However, he remained in his spot.

Jonathan knew how tough it was to reach that stage. If he were to strike at that moment, it would makehim look like a dishonorable man.

Of course, honor was nothing but a joke when it came to a battle. The fight Jonathan and Lucian werein was one to the death.

At that very second, Lucian's eyes suddenly flew open as empyrean light exploded out of them. Hiseyes were as bright as the sun.

“What a pity. You've missed the best opportunity,” Lucian uttered icily as he turned to Jonathan.

Lucian Yandell had reached the level of Nascent Soul. Looking at Jonathan, he roared, “You had thechance to kill me earlier, but you've missed it. Now, all that awaits you is death!”

Raising a brow, Jonathan asked in a baffled tone, “Did you really think I missed the chance?”

However, Lucian ignored his words. The hatred he had was one that seeped out of his bones. He didnot want to dwell on whether it was a missed opportunity or not; he only wanted to kill Jonathan thenand there.

On the flip side, the martial artists there all knew what had just happened—Jonathan's moment ofkindness made Lucian even more powerful.

Yet, Lucian was determined to kill Jonathan.

Initially, Jonathan thought he and Lucian bore no major grudge against each other, despite thedisagreements they had. Lucian had joined the Golden Sword Tournament because he wanted toreach the level of Nascent Soul, and that was a goal he had just achieved.

Jonathan did not wish to end a talented martial artist like Lucian.

To Jonathan, stopping one from earning a living and excelling in Destino Art was cruel.

That was why he had decided not to launch an attack on Lucian.

Moreover, martial artists would also think of Jonathan as someone dishonorable if he were to do that.

However, not that Lucian had reached the Nascent Soul level, he was keen on killing Jonathan. Even ifsome would think of Lucian as a despicable man for doing so, the dead would not be able to doanything. On the other hand, Lucian would be able to use his talent and reputation to cover up theincident.

Lucian's response taught Jonathan a lesson—he had to be ruthless when the time came. Otherwise,he would be the one who would end up dead.

Lucian took a step forward as his body grew larger; his punches turned mightier.

With every punch he threw, it was as if space distorted around it.

The rush of air made it difficult for Jonathan to take another breath.

Indeed, a Nascent Soul martial artist was worlds apart from a Neutralizing Force fighter, despite thefact that they were only a level away from each other.

That was the difference between an immortal and an ordinary being.

Amber, Yasmin, and Jessica had their hearts leaped to their throats. Even Polly was starting to tenseup. She knew Jonathan was in a terrible situation.

At the start of the battle, Lucian was already on par with Jonathan in terms of fighting prowess, butnow, he had even reached the level of Nascent Soul.

Right as Lucian's Peacock King Strike was about to hit Jonathan's body, the latter abruptly sucked in abreath and made his stomach concave.

The punch from Lucian was one aimed to take Jonathan's life, so it was a brutal blow.

At the same time, Jonathan took in as deep of a breath as he could to the point his ribcage pressed

harshly against his lungs. Soon, a mouthful of blood accumulated in his mouth.

Schluk!

Jonathan spat out the mouthful of blood that shot right into Lucian's eyes.

Simultaneously, he crossed his arms to form the Heart Defense Technique.

Despite his defensive stance, Jonathan flew backward from Lucian's punch. Upon crashing onto theground, he continued to slide for another three meters.

Since Lucian had just reached the level of Nascent Soul, he had yet to reform his vitality fully. Insimpler terms, Nascent Soul fighters had to use their vitality to create vigor and let it protect their body.

However, as Lucian had yet to form vigor, his eyes were the weakest spot of his body.

Hence, Jonathan had used all of his vitality on that spit of blood to pierce Lucian's eyes.
