Rhode shot up and stared at the unfamiliar ceiling.

Gracier sneaked up to Lennon and the blade hidden in her sleeve struck and penetrated his back. Lennon shuddered, his shriveled body bulged abruptly. He tried to turn around with fuming spiritual flames in his eyes to gaze at the ambusher. However, before he witnessed what happened, yet another little girl clad in white robe emerged out of thin air. She laid her daggers in a criss-cross stance and streaked two dazzling trajectories across his neck.

Lennon's skull spun in midair and his balloon-like, swelling body deflated. But Gracier's and Madaras's attack didn't stop. The moment Madaras decapitated Lennon, Gracier slashed her daggers.

The dazzling blade rays tore his body apart.
