Chapter 863: 270
What Four Knights of the King?
No.
In Barre Shepherd’s eyes, there was only one person.
To fight many with few, the best tactic was always…
Lock onto one person, kill them first, then talk!
…
The fight couldn’t be called intense.
But the onlookers were all dumbfounded at this moment.
Watching the two sides battle for several rounds, it was but the blink of an eye.
Before them lay a scattered field of Puppet shards.
No one spoke.
Because they were too shocked to even describe what they had seen.
Watching that legendary figure being chased and fleeing in a sorry state, everyone felt it surreal.

Could it be…
The Legendary Puppet Master who had made such a flashy entrance was a sham?
However, the pressure on him was something outsiders couldn’t comprehend.
Domingo had his own bitter struggles that he couldn’t voice.
He always felt as if the Grim Reaper was standing behind him, blowing a cold breath on his neck.
God knows the terrible pressure he was under.
Looking back on his life, ever since he advanced to the Fifth Tier, no one, not even a legend, had been able to impose this sort of deadly pressure on him.
Yet today,
he had encountered the strongest enemy of his life.
It looked like four against one.
But in reality, it was one-on-one!
That old man was solely targeting him.
Domingo knew clearly that if he were even slightly slower in using his life-saving tricks, he would immediately drop dead!
The Four Knights of the King, after all, were top warriors with a tacit understanding.
The moment they decided to take action, they had already thought of various response plans.
Seeing that their companion’s tricks failed to injure Barre Shepherd, the other three also helped out with various means.
But the effects were less than ideal.
Coordination paled in comparison to absolute power.
The ‘Red Dragon’ Hogan, though he had turned into a Lava Giant with an invincible body after his second transformation, was confident he could contend with the old man…
The ‘Four-eyed Weird Monk’ Karan, who practiced both Magic Martial Arts, also felt that he could exchange blows with Barre Shepherd…
Even ‘Forbidden Curse Master’ Jolin, with his arsenal of earth-based forbidden spells, could hold out for a long time…
However, at this moment, the three of them felt as if they were punching the air, completely unable to touch him.
Because Barre Shepherd didn’t bother paying attention to them.
He was hellbent on chasing down one person to beat up.
To hold back?
You could hold back anyone, but to think of holding back this man?
Impossible!
Moreover, during the battle, the Four Knights had to guard the New King Arthur, which also limited their actions.
Eventually, they faced reality.
After several exchanges, thanks to his numerous life-saving Relics, Domingo managed to survive.
The four gathered around the New King Arthur and formed a defensive formation.
Now with this stance, they also knew that any proactive attack would be futile against the old man whose understanding of Martial Arts seemed outrageous.
On the other side, Barre Shepherd saw this turtle formation and frowned.
Just now, although he fought quite freely,
he had to admit, the Four Knights of the King were truly strong.
Taken individually, each could certainly be considered a legend.
If there were a “Top Ten Legends List,” these four’s techniques would likely make the top ten.
Especially their joint attack techniques and those strange and wondrous ancient Relics.
The depth of their combat power had not yet been fully tested.
Barre Shepherd was clear in his mind that killing one or two was not a big issue.
But with all four together, Barre Shepherd saw no opportunity.
Furthermore, the foundation of the Orlan Royal Family was not just this much.
Having been caught off guard earlier, now… they probably had to bring out some trump cards.
Barre Shepherd wasn’t in a hurry.
After all, he had had his fill of teaching them a lesson.
What he needed to do now was to tie down these guys, preventing them from going to the Silver Moon God Tree.
The side that should be anxious was the opposition.
He looked over,
Sure enough.
The New King of Orlan, Arthur, had already darkened his face.
Barre Shepherd ceased his attacks.
With him pressing down, the Four Knights didn’t dare to make any rash moves.
The two sides were at a standoff once again.
….
Seeing the enemy being beaten, Leonard Churchill finally relaxed, his heart shocked for a long time: “The old man is formidable…”
Looking at the Puppet shards scattered across the sky, he truly grasped the meaning of “flashy but ineffectual.”
There were no fancy spells;
No bizarre techniques, no schemes;
No unexpected Transcendent abilities;
It was just Air Skill and fists,
Plain and simple moves!
Simple!
Brutal!
Strong Air Invincible Defense!
It was the method of a brute!
This was the real Overlord Fist,
Domineering in every sense of the word!
Leonard also noticed that those Orlan Remnants had all sorts of High Tier Relics and Cards in their hands.
Yet Barre Shepherd’s unreasonable fighting style genuinely bewildered them.
Sheer power broke through the myriad tricks!
Designed to shatter all kinds of flashiness.
Even Sophia Jones, watching from the side, looked on with a complex expression.
Her keen vision allowed her to understand more details in this level of battle.
But precisely because she understood, she knew there was no solution.
Unless one was of the same Realm, she really couldn’t think of anyone in the world who could defeat this man.
….
However, while the Divine Ruins Treasure House was engulfed in fierce combat.
Sinless City’s Upper State Prison.
A few cloaked individuals were maintaining a massive array.
Within the array, the projection of a red moon completely overpowered the sun.
The individuals kept pouring Curse Power into the array, sustaining its operation.
Suddenly, the cloaked individual wearing the Pursuer of Light mask couldn’t hold back a spurt of blood.
The rest saw this with grave faces: “Leader, you…”
“It’s a minor issue. Should hold out till the end,” said the Pursuer of Light nonchalantly, shaking his head.
His breath was already weak, but he still kept his focus on the array’s projection, calculating something: “If Senior Shepherd makes a move, he should force Arthur to use the Kingship rights of the Divine Ruins Treasure House. Only by seizing the Kingship rights can the Old Days Believers be thoroughly dealt with… The Silver Moon Sect issues are not a big problem, the King Orlan wouldn’t want to see it, so he will definitely give up. The Crimson Corruption is the real trouble…”
The others, listening, remained silent.
