Following Marquis Salamrut's angry bellow, he immediately stomped his feet, catapulting himself toward Vaan without hesitation.
In his mind, Vaan's action was extremely foolish. His bastard daughter was better protected when the Knights surrounded her. On the other hand, Vaan was alone with a meager cultivation…
If Marquis Salamrut had faced the situation calmly, he would have realized many things that would have made him wary of Vaan.
But alas, how could a cornered beast have time to think calmly when pressured?
"Overestimating yourself," Vaan snorted.
Peng!
Vaan flicked his middle finger, and a detached piece of the Sea God Temple's barrier power struck Marquis Salamrut squarely on the forehead before nailing him back into the ground.
Although the blunt force didn't outright kill Marquis Salamrut, it did give severe concussion and incapacitated him.
"Seal his cultivation base."
"Yes, my Lord!"
