The Rise of the Black Plain
chapter-517

After hearing the comments of those two men, Elena couldn't help but smile slightly. She wasn't like that because she liked trouble. After all, she couldn't be described as a person who loves to fight.

But, this young woman couldn't help but think of the behavior of these two men as pathetic!

She was much stronger than those two and was used to occasionally training with Minos. Hence, she felt extremely comfortable at this point, despite her disadvantage in numbers and cultivation level.

And she was aware that there was no way these opponents would know of her above-average strength... But even so, she couldn't help but look at them as if she were a pair of idiots.

"What are we going to do with you? Do you ask that? It looks like miss Elena doesn't understand the situation, Bert. Do you want to explain to her?" The weaker of those two individuals said this in a mocking tone while laughing at Elena.

These two weren't of noble birth like Elena. Yet, even though they both had inferior techniques than this young woman's, they were confident they could handle her with some ease. After all, the difference between Black-grade and Blue-grade techniques wasn't that big, and both of these men were already at higher levels than hers.

With that, they had come here with the certainty that they would have the upper hand against Elena.

After hearing the question from his associate, Bert, level 52, laughed. "Hehehe, she truly is an ignoramus! Miss Elena, don't you know that Stone Island has been a little insecure lately? Your friend Elen has been disrupting local life a lot..."

"But still, you appear in a town like this, unaccompanied, completely vulnerable…" He then shook his head and made a sound with his tongue, typical of people expressing their disappointment. "Looks like you missed some Neel family classes, huh?"

"Hehe, your friend Elen is cautious not to appear in public without security but looks at you... Traveling alone."

"Oh? So are you Elen's enemies? Where do you come from?" Elena asked curiously.

She had already expected to be approached by people at the 6th stage of cultivation on her journey. Still, there was no way for her to know if these people would be allies or enemies without a presentation first.

Therefore, despite having noticed the hostility of these two, she did not know if they were in collaboration with the Allen family. But knowing that, she was now sure what she was supposed to do with these two...

"Humph, we don't need to give you satisfaction!"

"By the way, you don't ask the questions here." The stronger of the two remarked haughtily as his spiritual energy began to flow more quickly through his body.

"But you're lucky... You have the information we need. So, we won't kill you right away!" The level 51 cultivator said as he prepared to act. "Come on, Bert, let's finish this woman quickly!"

Seeing and hearing these two men in front of her, Elena smiled once more before finally saying something to both of them. "Hehe, actually, you guys just helped Elen and me. Eliminating two enemies at the 6th stage isn't a bad thing to do..."

"Pathetic!"

"I wasn't even worried about eliminating worms like you two, but it won't be too much work to deal with you both!" She then placed her fists at the level of her face and got into a fighting stance. "Do you have anything last to talk? That is your last chance."

"Tsk, talk while you can! We'll see who will have the last laugh!" The level 52 cultivator commented just before he started moving through that spot.

Simultaneously, Bert just laughed at Elena's ridiculous comments. But he couldn't help but be impressed by this as he prepared to activate a decisive attack. 'I thought this woman only knew how to open her legs... But it looks like she's not just a bitch after all.'

Seeing those two men running in different directions, already activating their respective techniques, Elena remained there, waiting for the best moment to act.

She was stronger than both of them in terms of combat proficiency. Still, unlike Minos, who could steal his opponents' energy during fights, she didn't have that advantage. Consequently, Elena needed to be careful with her energy expenditure during battles.

She might be stronger than those two men, but she had smaller energy reserves than they did. Hence, if she were careless and showed her strang, those two might realize their mistake in underestimating her.

And that could lead to unwanted escape!

Initially, Elena wasn't looking for trouble, at least until her return to Stone Island's capital. But since these two people had gotten in her way, she could very well diminish the enemy forces now.

'That's right, keep getting closer... Underestimate me...' Elena calmly thought as she watched the enemy attacks forming in the air.

Suddenly, a hurricane with strong winds formed in front of where that level 51 cultivator was standing as he directed this attack on Elena's right side.

At the same time, a ball of red light appeared in Bert's hand and then turned into a beam of light, heading towards Elena's left side.

"Fall for me!" One of them said it out loud, as he used much of his spiritual cultivation in his attack.

Ssss!

Swooish! Swooish!

Different sounds resonated through that spot, as both attacks launched in Elena's direction cut through the air, until finally, they were only a few inches away from this young woman's body.

"Let me show you how weak you are!"

But just before the scene expected by those two opponents of this young blonde happened, they heard that, and then something unique occurred!

Elena then disappeared from where she was, running at high speed until she reached the middle of those opponents. After that, she stopped running and raised her arms towards those men's chests.

Burning Light!

Immediately upon activating her Silver-grade attack technique, a golden ball appeared in each of Elena's hands.

These two balls seemed to be on fire as if they were small stars about to explode!

Finally, after just a millisecond, half-golden, half-orange beams of light condensed into a ray of light, heading towards the targets from before.

Ssss!

"What? It can not be!" Bert exclaimed in disbelief, feeling extremely vulnerable right now.

He could feel how strong that attack was. Such a thing was even superior to what he could display at his level, something that had already reached the power equivalent of a full strike from a level 53 cultivator!

And Elena had attacked two people simultaneously with the same amount of force, after completely dodging her opponents' strongest attacks!

While that didn't prove she had a fighting proficiency even higher than level 53, these two experienced Spiritual Kings felt that Elena was very experienced in fierce battles.

Such an ability to activate the same technique proved that she was that kind of person rare in this part of the continent, the invincible kind at her own level!

As they considered this, terrified and virtually helpless, those two men finally felt the power of that young woman's Silver-grade technique.

'It can not be! She's only at level 50!' The weaker of the two tried to make sense of it, but there was nothing.

All that was left for him was to feel his defenses fall one after the other quickly until the attack launched by Elena touched his chest.

"Ahhhhhh!"

"Ahhhhh!"

Screams of pain filled the early morning silence as two men fell and began to roll on the ground.

"Ahhhh, mercy! Miss Elena, mercy!" The stronger of the two screamed as tears began to flow from the corners of his eyes.

He was feeling as if his own soul was burning while his armor had melted and an eight-centimeter radius hole was forming in the middle of his chest.

Unfortunately for both of them, the attack Elena had used was fatal!

Such a thing would not only destroy the physical part, but it would also burn the target's very soul!

Because of that, even if the hearts of these men weren't being destroyed right now, they would still die since they weren't able to stop an attack like that.

"You're already dead.... You just haven't figured it out yet."
