Lord Protector Novel

Chapter 687

Zeke muttered, “No need for thanks.”

Morgan pointed at Zeke and shouted, “Uncle, this is the b*stard who hit me. He’s the one who said he’ll strip you of your title!”

Barnaby glanced at Zeke in disappointment.

“A thin body, light footsteps, and shallow breathing. He’s at most an average martial artist. It’ll be humiliating for me to go up against a man like him. Forget it. Young man, you shall dig out your own eyes and cut your own tongue before leaving. It’s embarrassing for me to deal a blow on you.”

Zeke had a faint smile on his lips.

“I’m afraid you won’t get the chance to.”

“Ignorant fool,” Barnaby uttered, “Are you challenging my patience?”

Eclipse stood up and announced, “You have to go through me before thinking of going against this young man.”

Barnaby shook his head, disappointed. He sighed, “A man must know his own place. Eclipse, you don’t even have basic knowledge like this. Your path in martial arts is doomed to be short. Very well. Since you seek death, I shall grant you that. I have shown you mercy the last time, but I won’t this time.”

At that, he pounced on Eclipse like a tiger.

Without taking a step back, Eclipse charged toward him. The two began the fight anew.

Barnaby was joyous in his heart. The power Eclipse had right now was not even as strong as he had earlier.

This time, he would kill him for good.

The longer the fight went on, the stronger Barnaby became. His blows forced Eclipse to take steps back, and the latter soon lost his calm.

Finally, Barnaby took another chance to punch Eclipse’s chest again.

This time, he had put full force into the punch; he wanted to make sure that this hit had enough force to kill Eclipse.

However, right then, something changed.

Instead of dodging it, Eclipse reached out to grab Barnaby’s fist and stopped him.

Barnaby’s face turned ashen as his eyes widened.

Did Eclipse just stop my punch? F*ck, why did his power suddenly increase exponentially?

Barnaby tried to retract his fist, but Eclipse’s grip was like a mechanical clamp around his hands.

He could not retract it, nor could he move it.

A foreboding thought flashed in his mind.

Before he could come back to his senses, Eclipse had slammed his fist at Barnaby.

It was swung upwards, right at Barnaby’s stomach.

Barnaby’s body flew up into the air, and he crashed into the ceiling.

The ceiling cracked before he fell back onto the floor. Blood rushed out from his mouth without any indication of stopping.

The hall was silent.

Everyone was staring at Eclipse in terror.

They had realized that Eclipse’s power was twice the amount from his previous fight.

Was Zeke right? Was Eclipse restricted by his injury? Was that why he couldn’t fight at his full power earlier?

Zeke did heal Eclipse’s injury.
Zeke did heal Eclipse’s injury.

This was the display of Eclipse’s true power.

It was worlds apart from Barnaby’s power.

Eclipse is stronger than a master!

No wonder he’s the top assassin of Rivermouth.

Eclipse looked at his palms in disbelief. He, too, had not thought that Zeke’s silver needle would be able to restore him to his peak state.

This feels great! Haha!

Barnaby stared at Eclipse, bewildered. He spat out, “How can this be? How can this be? I’ve destroyed your energy center ten years ago. How could he have cured you with just a silver needle?”

His words made anger flood Eclipse’s veins.

“You b*stard! Did you intentionally injure my energy center ten years ago? So it’s you who made me unable to utilize my full power. Die! Even your death will not be able to calm my anger.”
