Killing Damian Crimson.

The appearance of the old man leading the Underworld group was akin to death in the mind of those who have seen him in action. The goons who have been stationed outside from the start were even more confused than anyone else but Damian knew there was no time to waste.

He quickly pulled out a pistol from one of his fallen soldiers and began shooting at Leo.

"Hmph." Leo let out a disdainful snort as his body shot forward like a spear, bubbling with demonic energy which acted like a shield.

Bam.

Leo's fist brushed past Damian's cheek, cutting it open. His left fist shot forward, reaching for a terrifying uppercut.

Woosh.

Damian ducked to the right to evade the punch as he retaliated with three body shots. Hitting Leo was akin to hitting a solid wall which left his fists numb.

Wam.

Leo jumped and his leg lashed forward like a blade, slamming into Damian's face as he was sent flying to a Jeep with a kick.

Bang.

Boom.

As soon as Damian hit the Jeep, a mighty force smashed into the Jeep with him sandwiched between the car and Leo. After the collision, Leo stepped back as he watched Damian fall to his knee with a bloodied face.

His body was beaten badly with his joints creaking with each move. He coughed up a mouthful of blood and shivered in pain.

"Help me..." Damian groaned in pain while reaching for his flabbergasted soldiers.

These men were too dumbfounded to even act against him and even if they do, he is currently standing really close to him. Shooting at this old man now would mean his death as well.

Only now did he realize something important. He may have brought an army with him but in this fight, he is all alone. These people can't save him, no one can save him.

It felt like the realization drained the life out of Damian since he already knew the outcome, especially now this old man was standing over his kneeling body.

"No one can help you." Leo sneered in disdain.

Pa.

He grabbed Damian by the neck and pulled him off the ground into the air. The face of the man ballooned up while turning red. The more pressure he applied, the worse the man's situation became.

Snap.

Bam.

Leo let go of a lifeless corpse that dropped to the ground with its eyes open. The look in Damian's eyes was that of acceptance of his fate at the final moment.

Ding.

"Not a bad reward for killing a man of this caliber." Leo commented indifferently but he didn't have the time to dwell on such thoughts.

He was still at the heart of the enemy forces, under the rain on a lonely night. They all held their weapons unsure whether they should shoot since it was not working.

"With Damian dead, the Underworld will be taking steps to Annex the Crimson Serpents. This is the only avenue you will get to let out your grievances, after now you will never get the chance again." Leo's words boomed in their ears.

Vroom.

As if in response to his words the headlights of a Jeep turned on and its tires spun dangerously on the muddy soil before it jetted forward, charging at the old man.

"Not bad." Leo commended in a low tone as he refused to move from his spot.

Bang.

Screech.

Leo frowned as the car smashed into his demonic aura but didn't stop there. Even though I couldn't tear through his aura wall, it kept trying and he was constantly losing points because of this.

Vroom.

Bang.

Bang.

Leo frowned as three more cars smashed into his location causing him to lose more demonic energy. Right now red sparks could be seen all around him as these cars kept pushing.

Ratatatata.

The others quickly began shooting at the old man at the center of the chaos. Dark red sparks surrounded him as he was swarmed by attacks from all sides.

"They are really getting creative." Leo laughed with an amused smile on his face.

Swoosh.

Leo jumped with his fist clenched and he punched down, hitting the ground the moment he descended.

A dark red shockwave exploded from his body sending these vehicles and people flying.

"Hahahahaha! Kneel and I will spare your lives." Leo's voice boomed in the quiet night.

The sounds of guns dropping to the ground could be hard as these men began falling on their knees. Their eyes carried deep fear for the old man who created the Underworld gang.

Ding.

The news of the Crimson Serpent's defeat sent shivers down the spine of all those who heard of it. While it was just a medium-sized gang, the stories revolving around their defeat are what left people trembling.

Visiting the site of the battle, one would be stunned by the scene and wonder how the Underworld had no casualty on their side, destroying vehicles and flipping Jeeps. The state of the battlefield created a scene that should only be seen in war.

Not only did they win but they won, killing barely up to two percent of the Crimson Serpent members. For such an intense fight to have so few casualties felt strange.

The final problem lay with the members of the Crimson Serpent who have become a part of the Underworld. When asked about the events of the night, intense fear can be seen on their faces before they refuse to answer.

Even those caught, beaten, and tortured would rather die than reveal the details of that night's event. They seemed to be more scared of the old man of the Underworld than the world.

They all silently agreed to keep what they saw that night to themselves. No one knew if this was the order of the old man but one thing was certain after that night.

The status of the mysterious leader of the Underworld had soared to a high level in the minds and hearts of everyone who knew of his existence.
