My Substitute CEO Bride (Nash Calcraft)

Chapter 1725

Before Elistan even had time to react, Benedict threw a punch that sent him flying. Benedict moved so quickly that Elistan did not even have time to react.

Elistan pierced his saber into the ground and used its momentum to propel himself back onto his feet. Then, he turned around and flung his saber outward. A sword form cut through the air and whooshed toward Benedict. Benedict quickly moved his feet. Instead of retreating, he darted forward, dodging to avoid the sword. He then slapped Elistan across the face.

The slap could be heard clearly. Although Elistan was using spiritual energy to protect himself, he still found himself getting slapped square in the face.

Both Elistan and Benedict had achieved mid-Mystique Loyalty Realm. Additionally, both of them also had tangible gold cores.

The only difference between them was that Elistan spent most of his time practicing his cultivation in the mountains. The only fights he ever got into were with his fellow disciples in his sect. He had little to no experience fighting for his life.

Meanwhile, Benedict had garnered some experience under his belt during his time in the Divine Strategy Squadron. He had been on the frontlines before and killed hundreds of dozens of enemies on the battlefields.

Additionally, his grandfather, who was a Profound Oriental Realm expert, had provided him with one-on-one guidance. He might have only achieved mid-Mystique Loyalty Realm, but his battle skills actually placed him within the ranks of having achieved late Mystique Loyalty Realm.

He could easily have killed Elistan earlier but had decided to show him mercy because there were members of the Zen Heart Sect watching them.

Though the Zen Heart Sect was merely a second-tier sect, they were still headed by two Profound Oriental Realm experts.

If Elistan were related to one of those Profound Oriental Realm experts by blood, it was likely that not even Benedict's grandfather could manage to protect him.
