Chapter 91: Desperate Situation
Simone was smug!
That night, when she had been forced to flee from the abandoned factory by the Williams family, her eyes had burned with pain. And just now, the two black balls in the arena had mocked her silently…
At this moment, everything was swept away.
The person lying on the ground and wailing was Cole!
The person who was forced into a disadvantageous position and could only beg him to let go was the Williams family.
Simone laughed hysterically.
On the death row, Chris ferociously said, “Good, good.”
Although he hated Steve and Jayden for treating him like a pawn, he also hated Cole.
At this moment.
After she had her fill of laughing, Simone suddenly lowered her head and shot out another silver needle.
She wanted to kill Cole.
At this moment…
A voice resounded in Simone’s ears like a ghost.
“Simone, was my scream realistic?”
Simone’s smile froze, and fear slowly welled up in her eyes.
A small knife had pierced into her energy core.
Blood spurted.
Everyone fell silent!
Their pupils constricted!
How strong was the Goddess Poison Needle?
Everyone knew.
Even powerhouses at the level of Hugh Williams and Xavier Cross would be half-dead after taking a direct hit from the Goddess Poison Needle.
But…
Cole slapped everyone’s faces with the truth.
Before the members of the Hayes and the Yeager families could show their arrogant and smug expressions, they froze.
Chris’s smugness stopped as if someone was strangling him.
Then, despair spread in his eyes.
This time, it was his turn to die!
Cara closed her eyes.
Fortunately.
Cole is not dead.
“You…”
Simone did not even have time to show shock.
She had not expected it at all.
Didn’t Cole fall due to the poison?
Why can he still make a move?
The entire knife sank into Simone’s stomach, dripping with blood.
It was not that Cole did not want to stab Simone’s heart.
He did all this mainly because he knew that Simone’s inner armor at her heart must have the strongest defense.
He might not be able to break through the defense.
In the process of contact just now, Cole already knew that the energy core was a place where he could stab using the blade.
Cole was clear from the beginning.
If he wanted to kill Simone, he could only rely on those four days to increase his cultivation or rely on schemes.
However, the former path had already been cut off by the Medical Oath.
Therefore, he could only rely on schemes.
He had prepared several methods.
However, he did not expect Simone to not even be able to guard against the quicklime. After that, Simone had lost her mind and gone hysterical…
From that moment on, Cole knew that Simone was dead meat.
After that, he forcefully created an opportunity for Simone to shoot him.
The other party had already lost her mind after being humiliated by him. She would definitely take the opportunity to humiliate him.
If he struggled to survive, Simone would be smug.
And when she was smug would be the moment when she would be at her weakest.
At that moment…
Cole had seized the opportunity.
Initially, he wanted to fight to the death with Simone and use the pressure of the deathmatch to break through.
However, the prerequisite was that his cultivation had to break through.
Now that he could not even break through, he would not be as stupid as to fight Simone.
He was destined to be unable to break through the mid-stage Postnatal realm and wanted to compete with a Connate expert?
Wouldn’t he be lacking oxygen in his brain?
As Simone’s true energy continued to drain, Cole did not chase after her. Instead, he took a few steps back.
The knife was already poisoned.
Cole was in no hurry.
He was like a patient hunter.
After the poison spread throughout Simone’s body, she would be eliminated.
If he fought Simone now, she would counterattack.
Just now, he had “hit while the iron was hot” to set up a trap for Simone. Now, he did not want to rashly finish it in one go.
Cole would kill himself.
One had to know that the lethality of a Connate Realm expert’s counterattack before their death was immeasurable.
Don’t chase after a cornered enemy.
“Why weren’t you poisoned?”
As the poison gradually numbed Simone, she did not care about the loss of her true energy and only muttered.
Seeing Simone like this, Xavier shook his head.
A Connate realm martial artist was actually destroyed by Cole.
It’s a pity.
Simone looked at Cole’s energetic appearance. Her disbelief made her forget the danger she was facing.
She did not want to think about detoxification now.
She was just thinking…
The poison technique that she had been pursuing her entire life had actually been cracked.
It was cracked by someone she regarded as an ant.
Cole had personally crushed her pride.
Cole carefully paid attention to whether Simone would hurt him at any time. He replied, “It’s very simple. Your poison is too weak.”
“Too… weak?”
Simone was stunned.
My poison?
Too weak?!
“What did you say…”
Simone muttered and suddenly screamed, “Cole, what did you say?!”
In the next instant, the true energy in Simone’s body suddenly boiled like water, and her aura came crashing toward Cole like a mountain.
Hugh’s expression changed drastically. “Does she want to die?!”
Burning true energy doubled her strength.
However, it also meant that she had to give up everything.
“Cole can force a Connate realm martial artist to this extent.”
Xavier’s expression changed slightly.
Simone’s strength was not comparable to a top Connate-realm martial artist!
She relied on hidden weapons!
She had been living like a princess for many years, and she was no longer as fierce as before!
Yet…
Despite all those reasons, the fact that Cole could force Simone into a corner was enough to prove how powerful he was.
He was only a Postnatal realm second-grade martial artist!
Everyone in the Hayes family, including Steve Hayes, strangely calmed down.
Chris looked relieved.
Thank goodness!
Even though Simone had miscalculated time and time again previously and she lost sight of one thing and fell into a desperate situation of death…
But now, as long as Simone could give up her life,
Then Cole would die!
Chris could live!
As for whether Simone could live or not, it was none of Chris’s business.
After burning her true energy, Simone immediately rushed toward Cole like a ghost.
The wind was sharp.
She abandoned her hidden weapons and chose to fight Cole head-on!
Cole’s eyes flashed coldly.
I can’t retreat…
If he retreated.
Not only was he unable to dodge Simone, whose strength had already reached an extremely terrifying level, with his speed, but it was also possible that under the continuous pursuit, he would die before Simone was completely poisoned!
Even if the other party burned her true energy and doubled her strength, her energy core had already been stabbed into, so the effect of doubling was limited!
He could risk it!
He could not retreat!
“Ha!”
Cole stood on the spot and gritted his teeth as he circulated his cultivation technique.
His entire body instantly became as solid as steel.
Simone’s attack instantly arrived in front of him.
“Die!”
Simone roared and slammed her palm down.
Pfft!
Cole extended his palm and welcomed it.
The next moment…
Blood spurted out!
