Fredrinn Firecrown: The Weakest Villain

"How about we bring her corpse after we kill her? Her body should still be warm for some time… Hehehe." One of the black-robed men laughed pervertedly.

"Enough with your nonsense! Just do the job if you don't want to be punished by the boss!" Another one shouted in disgust.

Kristine's eyes turned cold when she heard their voices. She thought that these people were assassins, but that doesn't seem to be the case. They sounded like a group of bandits. "The Firecrown Household will make you pay for this!"

The black-robed men didn't say anything. They just pulled out their weapons and stared at her with vicious gazes.

After a moment of standstill, one of them suddenly attacked.

Kristine had been eyeing them closely so she quickly noticed the attack. She lifted her sword and parried the other party's weapon, causing a dull clanging sound as soon as their weapons clashed.

The other black-robed men weren't idle. They also launched an attack, sealing off all her paths of retreat.

'Their techniques are crude and there's a lot of openings.' Kristine thought as she gracefully deflected their weapons.

"What?! This girl is a lot stronger than I thought. Let's finish her off quickly!"

The black-robed men's attacks became more intense and Kristine received some cuts and injuries. She was outnumbered so she could only block the fatal attacks.

At this moment, Kristine kicked off the ground and backed off a few meters away which gained her some distance from her enemies. She then drew a pattern in the air and performed a sword technique.

"Stop her! Don't let draw the final line!" One of the men shouted when he sensed a fluctuation of Qi around Kristine. He could tell that she was about to execute a powerful sword technique!

"It's too late for that!" Kristine drew the final line and released a burning sword radiance as she brandished her sword. This was an arcane-rank sword technique called Blazing Sword Stab. One has to have sufficient talent in swordsmanship and a high affinity towards the fire element to learn this technique. This was also the most powerful sword technique that she knew.

Three unlucky fellows were caught in the flames. They screamed in pain as they slowly burned to death. The other two managed to evade on time, but they still received some burn wounds.

Kristine ignored them and turned her gaze towards Cain.

He had already killed five enemies and the only person standing before him was the masked man who seemed to be their leader.

'Where did cousin find that man? He seems to be as strong as the elite warriors in the family…' She was a bit surprised by how fast Cain managed to eliminate the Foundation Establishment stage assassins. He didn't even seem to be injured.

After checking his situation, Kristine looked at the carriage. Ren, Felix, and even the coachman were already fighting the black-robed men.

Seeing this, she quickly rushed over to support them.

Meanwhile, inside the carriage. Fredrinn was still consolidating his cultivation. Olivia was standing beside him, warily looking outside while holding the sword that Fredrinn bought for her. When she saw the wounds on Kristine and the others, she was terrified. 'Please don't die!'

Olivia wanted to go out there and help them, but she knew that she would only be a hindrance.

While she was praying for their survival, Fredrinn opened his eyes.

Fredrinn closed the system prompts and stood up.

"Ah!" Olivia was surprised by his sudden movements.

Fredrinn patted her shoulder. "Thank you for guarding me, Olivia. Stay here. I'll go and help them deal with those bastards."

Olivia didn't want him to put himself in danger, but she was also worried about the safety of their friends. In the end, she nodded her head. "Please be safe, my lord. You must prioritize your safety."

Hearing this, Fredrinn smiled and nodded. "Wait for me." He then jumped out of the carriage and joined the battle.

"Lord Fredrinn!" Felix, Ren, and the coachman shouted in surprise.

"Cousin, what are you doing here? You should go back inside the carriage. We can deal with the situation here." There was a hint of reprimand in her voice.

Fredrinn ignored them and pulled his sword.

A black-robed man suddenly pounced at him, but as if he was prepared for this sneak attack, Fredrinn calmly brandished his sword.

Whoosh!

The man's head slid off and fell to the ground.

Fredrinn didn't stop there. He performed the first movement of the Seven Scorching Sword Style.

Flames covered his sword and every person that got struck by his sword burst into flames!

His handsome face was illuminated by the flames of his sword, making him look even more attractive. However, his deadly sword technique brought terror to the onlookers. Even Kristine and the others couldn't believe their eyes.

Was this still the useless Fredrinn Firecrown that they knew? Who said that he was a failure?

"Lord Fredrinn… how could he be that strong?" Ren muttered in shock.

The others also stared at the one-sided massacre with utter disbelief. Fredrinn was said to be a talentless trash with a low-grade spirit root. He had no affinity to the fire element which was the cornerstone of the Firecrown Household. However, the brutal scene in front of them subverted all these rumors.

"Don't tell me that he was just hiding his real talent from the start… He fooled everyone…" Felix stared at the familiar yet unfamiliar figure bathed in flames.

Everyone agreed with his words. Talent could be upgraded, but it was difficult to find items that could increase talent. However, those without sufficient talent and elemental affinity couldn't learn powerful sword techniques, yet Fredrinn was able to perform one with such ease.

'Those people are Qi Gathering stage martial practitioners and some of them are even close to reaching the Foundation Establishment realm, but none of them can even last a single move from his sword… Cousin, just how strong are you?'
