"I didn't expect that you can resist this!" Zaki, seeing this scene, had a sowhat astonished expression.
He couldn't believe that Connor, just a Black rank martial artist, could withstand these raindrops. But what he didn't know was that Connor's strength far exceeded his level.
In the next mont, he had already rushed to Zaki and delivered a powerful punch to his chest.
However, in that critical mont, Zaki created a barrier in front of him using the rainwater.
Although Connor shattered the barrier with his punch, most of his strength was dissipated by it. In return, Zaki delivered a palm strike to his chest.
Instantly, Connor was sent flying and skidded on the ground for several dozen ters before he managed to stabilize himself.
In the anti, at the Collier family's dical room, after the family mbers visited Aida, they left one by one. It was only after they had left that Aida opened her eyes.
However, the next mont, soone walked into the dical room.
"You're awake?" Cielo greeted Aida with a smile.
"Yes." She nodded.
"I didn't expect your luck to be this good. I hired so many assassins to kill you, but in the end, you managed to survive," he said, not hiding his intentions anymore.
"Cielo, I've been good to you. Why would you want to harm ?" she asked coldly.
"Why would I want to harm you?" He smirked when he heard her question. Then, he continued, "Why do you think I want to harm you?"
She stared at him expressionlessly without saying a word.
"But you're safe now. After all, this is York. If I were to kill you, Grandfather would definitely suspect . So, I won't continue to target you," he explained, pausing briefly. "However, the one who's been protecting you might not be as lucky."
"What are you trying to say?" She seed to sense that sothing was amiss and hesitated.
"Let tell you the truth," Cielo said smugly. "I've already arranged assassins at the airport. If Connor dares to go to the airport today, he's a dead man. The assassins I hired are Black-rank martial artists, and no matter how skilled Connor is, he won't survive."
Aida adjusted her emotions and said, "Connor kidnapped . If you can kill him, that would be a way to relieve my anger."
"Is that really the case?" Cielo laughed heartily.
"Why would I worry about Connor's life or death?" she asked expressionlessly.
"I thought you might worry. Right now, I want to go to the airport to witness the spectacle. If what you said is true, and you hate Connor so much, wouldn't you also like to see him die with your own eyes? Do you want to co with ?" he asked.
Aida hesitated for a mont after hearing Cielo's words. She was concerned that he might have ulterior motives and might harm her.
"Don't worry. It's impossible for to harm you at this mont. Moreover, if you go with to the airport, everyone in the Collier family will know that I took you away. If I don't bring you back, how can I explain it to Grandfather?" He reassured her.
"Alright, I'll go with you. I also want to witness Connor's demise," She finally agreed, concerned about Connor's situation.
"Let's go!" Cielo appeared quite pleased and walked out. Aida followed him.
Back at the airport square, Connor and Zaki had been exchanging blows, and Connor was consistently at a disadvantage. Connor noticed that Zaki, a martial artist, was different from those he had encountered before.
"Sothing's wrong..." Connor shouted at Zaki.
"What's wrong?" Zaki calmly replied, "Hasn't anyone told you that sotis you can control everything without using your chi?"
"How did you do it then?" Connor asked curiously.
During their previous fight, Connor had noticed that Zaki didn't seem to use chi, yet he could control the raindrops. Connor had practiced the Chi Refining Technique and knew that true Black-rank martial artists could manipulate the world using their chi, as demonstrated by Faris and Jorge in their battle.
But Zaki seed different. He controlled the raindrops without visible signs of using chi.
"Are you really curious? If you can withstand one of my punches, I'll tell you," Zaki coldly said, raising his dagger again.
Before him, the rainwater transford into a fist-shaped object, gradually enlarging as it flew toward Connor. When it reached him, the water-ford fist was the size of a person.
Seeing this entirely water-based fist in front of him, Connor's eyes revealed a hint of astonishnt. Then, he roared, "Seven-Star Big Dipper Fist, Sky Splitter!"
He unleashed a powerful punch that struck the watery fist head-on.
