Liens did not take the opportunity to attack the old man, not because he had any moral standards and didn't want to take advantage of someone's misfortune.

It was purely because he felt a strong sense of threat.

It was as if he would be struck by a thunderous blow if he just moved.

This also made Liens understand that a part of the old man's attention was always on him.

After crying for a while, the old man wiped away his tears, and his expression changed from sorrow to indifference.

He gently placed Heidi's head back in its original position, then found a clean cotton quilt to wrap Heidi's body and placed it aside.

Then, he took out a bottle of potion from his pocket, poured it into Adonis's mouth, and then reprimanded him:

"Stop yelling!"

"It's just a broken arm. Yelling so loudly, what kind of man are you, what kind of knight are you?"

Hearing the old man's rebuke, Adonis immediately stopped his wailing, which was a mix of pain and sorrow.

As the potion went down and began to take effect,

Adonis's wound quickly stopped bleeding, and even showed signs of healing.

The old man picked up Adonis's severed hands, glanced at them, and then seemed to praise, "Clean and decisive! Truly impressive, young man."

Although it was praise, Liens could feel his tone becoming colder, and the sense of threat emanating from him growing stronger.

After the old man finished speaking, he pressed the severed arm back to Adonis's original position.

Subsequently, Liens saw that the hands seemed to reattach at an incredible speed.

Even the joint slowly disappeared, as if Adonis had never had a broken arm.

This effect was not something a low-level alchemical potion like a Healing Potion could achieve...

It was probably some high-level potion he didn't know about; at least, the storeroom didn't sell such high-level items.

Perhaps this thing was even more precious than an Elemental Baptism Potion.

"Alright, don't overuse your hands in the next few days, and it's best not to carry any heavy objects."

"After that, it will recover to its original strength in ten days to half a month."

Seeing the wound from the severed arm disappear, the old man began to instruct Adonis.

And Liens silently watched the old man handle everything, little by little.

After instructing Adonis, the old man turned to Liens and said, "Little brother over there, you've waited long enough; let's go out first, I don't want any more commotion here."

After speaking, the old man was the first to pass through the broken wall, seemingly not worried that Liens wouldn't follow him out.

Liens did not resist and obediently followed the old man out of the house where the tragedy had just occurred.

Since he couldn't kill him, Adonis wouldn't be able to reveal his secret.

So, Liens didn't bother with him anymore.

Compared to Adonis, he was now more interested in this old man who exuded a strong sense of threat.

Liens estimated that he would most likely lose, but that didn't stop him from wanting to fight such a strong opponent.

After walking out of the room, the moonlight outside scattered upon both of them.

The old man walked in front, with Liens following behind.

"Aren't you going to take a weapon?"

Liens asked the old man in front of him with a puzzled expression.

"No need... And I don't want to kill you so easily."

The old man replied calmly to Liens without turning his head.

"Is that so? It seems you're really confident. Aren't you afraid I'll run away because of that?"

Liens continued.

"You probably don't know me, otherwise, you wouldn't say such things."

The old man continued to respond indifferently.

"Indeed, I don't know you. But since you called Miss Heidi your daughter, you must also be a high-ranking member of the Glenbagen Family, right?"

Liens continued.

"You still dare to mention my daughter?"

The old man said as if asking a rhetorical question.

The two exchanged words...

If one ignored the content of their conversation, it would seem like two newly acquainted strangers calmly conversing about something.

"Alright, this is the place."

"Your screams later shouldn't disturb my daughter's peace."

After walking for a while, the old man and Liens stopped in a large courtyard. Upon arriving here, the old man said.

During their journey here, they had encountered patrolling guards, but after seeing the old man, the guards merely saluted from a distance and did not step forward to stop them.

Although they were also very curious about who Liens, who was behind the old man, was, they did not dare to step forward and ask.

"Draw your sword. I grant you the right to resist, so that despair can penetrate deeper into your heart."

"Only despair can make you experience the sorrow in my heart; only despair can make you understand what unforgivable things you have done."

The old man said indifferently.

"Despair, huh... Perhaps I once had it."

"But for me now... Forcing despair upon me is probably impossible."

Liens's expression was calm as he responded indifferently to the old man.

After speaking, Liens directly lunged forward, charging towards the old man, swiftly swinging his sword to strike at the old man's neck.

The old man stared indifferently at Liens's charging figure, making no move.

It wasn't until the longsword was about to strike him that the old man quickly raised his palm, blocked the longsword, and then closed his hand.

"Hmm?"

Liens frowned.

Because the old man had gripped his longsword with only one palm, and his body hadn't even wavered at all.

A strong wind blew between the two, but the wind on the longsword seemed to have been paused, no longer howling.

Liens wanted to pull out his longsword, but the longsword in his hand was like the Sword in the Stone, making it impossible for him to budge it an inch.

At this moment, Liens finally began to somewhat understand the old man's confidence.

Such powerful physical strength and reaction speed... The difference in their physical attributes was even greater than he had imagined.

Then, the old man raised his other hand, clenched it into a fist, and with a seemingly slow but very fast motion, directly punched Liens in the abdomen.

"Poof!"

A large mouthful of blood spewed from Liens's mouth, splattering onto the old man's body.

Intense pain followed, and Liens even felt that his abdomen had been pierced by that punch.

At the same time, there was ringing in his ears and a feeling of powerlessness caused by the blow to his abdomen.

The old man released his grip on the longsword, and Liens, losing his support, tilted forward, almost falling to the ground.

However, the old man timely pulled Liens's hand, preventing him from falling directly to the ground.

"Hmph..."

Another surge of intense pain came from his hand, causing Liens to let out a muffled sound.

That was the old man directly crushing the bones in Liens's arm.

"Bang!"

The old man released Liens's hand, letting him fall to the ground.

Then, he stepped on Liens's body.

"Crack!"

"Poof!"

These were the sounds of bones breaking and Liens spitting blood again.

From the feedback on his body, Liens knew that his spine had been broken.

Liens still endured, but the continuous intense pain made him a little disoriented.

While he still had some consciousness, he directly exited this instance.
