The third person to step forward was Edwin Lynch, the top master from Phaedra Island. He was much stronger than Julian and Bradley.
Sebastian quickly stepped back and spun away. He barely dodged the trio's combined attack, but Edwin's sword energy managed to cut off a lock of his hair. It missed Sebastian's head by mere inches. The close call left him drenched in cold sweat.
At that moment, Edwin, Bradley, and Julian surrounded Sebastian. Their formation created an impenetrable triangle that cut off every possible escape route.
Then, a group of elders from the three major families formed a larger perimeter around them. This left. Sebastian with no chance of escape.
"You're dead meat today, bastard!" Julian's murderous intent was palpable. His demeanor radiated the menacing presence like a villain.
"Brat, if you surrender now, I might let you keep your body intact." Bradley gripped his spear and sneered.
Edwin didn't say a word, but his murderous intent was unmistakable.
Sebastian glanced at Edwin. "Mr. Lynch, I've never had any bad blood with you. Why are you attacking me?"
"The four major families of Phaedra Island are bound by honor," Edwin said with righteous conviction.
He continued, "When one prospers, we all share that success. When one suffers, we all bear the loss. You've killed so many people from the Lennon and Sanders families. How could I possibly turn a blind eye to that?"
"Isn't that a bit hypocritical? Where were you when the Lennons attacked the Sander family?" Sebastian demanded.
Edwin was furious. "This is an internal conflict of Phaedra Island. An outsider like you has no right to meddle. Anyway, you will die today!"
Sebastian didn't back down. "You're all renowned masters, yet you gang up on someone younger like me. Don't you find that disgraceful?"
"The winners get to set the rules, while the losers have no say. Who's going to argue with that?" Bradley scoffed.
Julian sneered. "You can spout all the highfalutin talk you want, but it won't change the fact that you're dead meat today."
Sebastian sneered. "If you want to kill me, go ahead and try. I might just take one or two of you down with me." His words caused a flicker of concern in the eyes of the trio.
Julian had faced Sebastian several times before. In their last two encounters, Sebastian showed himself as the stronger fighter. Julian knew that if Sebastian chose to go down fighting and take him down, he would be at risk.
On the contrary, Edwin and Bradley were also wary after having gauged Sebastian's strength from their brief encounter.
Seeing that the other two were hesitant to act, Julian grew anxious and quickly said, "Mr. Lynch, Mr. Lennon Senior, let's not be intimidated by this bastard. No matter how tough he is, he's just one guy. With the three of us working together, taking him down will be a breeze."
Edwin nodded. "You're right. Let's strike together and finish him off in one decisive blow."
"Okay,"
"Agreed."
Bradley and Julian echoed, nodding in unison.
"Kill him!"
Edwin was the first to strike and launched a sweeping sword strike from afar. As the strongest of the trio, his cultivation base was the highest.
He swung his sword and sent a massive arc of golden sword energy over 30 feet long, crashing toward Sebastian. Typically, grandmasters' sword energies are limited to about ten feet, and divine grandmaster's sword energies extend around 20 feet. However, Edwin's sword energy stretched over 30 feet. This highlighted the depth of his cultivation base.
At that moment, his sword energy cut through the air with a razor-sharp edge. It was about to slice through everything in its path.
At the same time, Julian unleashed a powerful palm strike. A wave of dark energy surged forward, turning the ground black and withering the grass in its wake. A bone-chilling cold spread out from the impact.
Bradley also made his move. A brilliant golden bearn of light shot out from his spear and pierced through everything in its path.
Sebastian whipped out his saber and swiftly sidestepped Bradley's spear strike. He used his weapon to parry Edwin's sword energy while punching at the encroaching dark energy.
A thunderous explosion erupted as Sebastian was blasted backward by the overwhelming energy.
Although he was fearless in a one-on-one fight, the combined assault of these three top masters was more than he could handle. He was instantly pushed to the edge.
"Kill him!"
