Chapter 852: Chapter 268: That’s it, the First Under Heaven? (Hello, 2024)
Leonard Churchill looked at the effeminate man before him, the corner of his eye lifting slightly.

“This guy almost said that line with an orchid finger: ‘Your blood is contaminated.'”
With his slick and powdered appearance, he looked really handsome yet unmistakably effeminate.
If he wasn’t mistaken, this should be the legendary top talent of the White Family’s current generation, “Silver Eyes” Wayne White.
The very brother of Vivian White, whom he had encountered before.
Having a good-looking face didn’t necessarily mean anything about one’s sexual orientation.
...
It was because his contracted Immortal Aegis Animal was the Silver Eyes Immortal Fox, whose pair of silver eyes could bewitch, influencing his temperament to resemble the creature.
Within the path of the “God Stealer,” it was said that the more one’s temperament resembled their Immortal Aegis Animal, the higher their affinity and the stronger their power.
Catherine Carter once warned him to be especially cautious of this guy, who had a deep and powerful cunning.
Leonard Churchill did not want to provoke him.
However, unexpectedly, the other party came to provoke him.
…
“Bloodsucking?”
Leonard Churchill, of course, knew that his blood was contaminated.
The negative status of the “Blood Plague” was still blatantly displayed on his panel.
If it weren’t for his ability to be exempt from faith pollution and the “God-stealing Ring” suppressing the bodily transformation, he would have already turned into a vampire.
A moment ago, this guy took a big gulp; it was fortunate that he spit it out, otherwise he would likely have been contaminated.
Leonard Churchill already had a rough guess about this guy’s intentions.
Just now, Wayne White had managed to sneak in silently because he was confident he could launch a surprise attack and seriously injure him.
Although the probability of killing him wasn’t high.
There was at least a chance.
But this guy did not take it.
Instead, he chose to “bloodsuck,” which was neither painful nor itching.
This was quite thought-provoking.
Leonard Churchill did not think he had deep hatred or major grievances with the White Family.
Seeing this, it became clear that the other party’s goal was not simply to hurt him.
Among the inheritances of the Federation’s card masters, the White Family was undoubtedly at the top in terms of being nefarious.
“Is this guy coveting my flesh?”
A thought flashed through his mind, and a cold glint flickered in Leonard Churchill’s eyes.
No matter what the other side’s purpose.
If they were the enemy, he would certainly not be courteous.
His mind whirred with thoughts, and reality was as fast as a bolt of lightning in that instant.
“Bang!”
Leonard Churchill stomped into the void, causing an air explosion, and his whole body had already disappeared from the spot.
Wayne White’s expression turned serious in an instant, and he thought urgently, “Such quick neural reflexes. Worthy of the body favored by our ancestor…”
But it was too late to dodge, he already felt a depression in his chest.
The strange force on the fist headed straight for his chest, seeming intent on blasting him away with one punch.
At this critical moment of life and death, Wayne White shook his hand, channeling Curse Power into a card held between his fingers, his eyes flashing a silver gleam, “Immortal Technique·Fox Light Charm Shadow.”
The spell formed instantly.
His entire body suddenly became as elusive as mist.
“Eh…”
A moment ago, Leonard Churchill had felt his fist connect with something solid.
But the next instant, it was as though he had hit a fog, his force vanishing into nothingness.
The Gang Air on his fist exploded readily.
“Snap.”
The figure before him burst into a cloud of ghostly mist.
Leonard Churchill, looking at Wayne White’s state of Elemental Transformation, also inwardly remarked, “As expected, very troublesome.”
Just this one move of Elemental Transformation almost countered all Close Combat Card Masters.
But Leonard Churchill was not idle; sensing the guy’s location, he swept over a strike of “Royal Flow·Collapse” the moment his fist missed.
The ability to undergo Elemental Transformation was indeed tricky.
But as long as the situation wasn’t completely overwhelming, it wasn’t entirely unmanageable.
Old Shepherd had taught him a method: if you encounter such an opponent, then use high-frequency attacks, forcing them to maintain a high-consumption elemental state.
Compared to that, the Curse Power consumption of close-combat types was much less than that of Technique Types.
If there was a gap in the opponent’s Elemental Transformation, even for an instant, they would undoubtedly receive a heavy blow!
“Snap” “Snap” “Snap”…
In just a breath or two, Leonard Churchill’s fists hammered down like a torrential downpour.
The other party was smashed time and again without managing to reform into a human shape.
However, it seemed that Wayne White had no intention of fighting Leonard Churchill to the death.
Finding an opportunity to catch his breath, he once again turned into a wisp of ghostly air and slipped away.
“Escaped, huh…”
Leonard Churchill watched the figure vanish, his gaze then briefly shifting to his own neck.
He did not think the trouble had ended just like that.
Since he had attracted the attention of those people from the White Family, there was bound to be more trouble ahead.
A hint of contemplation flashed through his eyes, Leonard Churchill’s mind filled with various follow-up scenarios.
However, he didn’t dwell on them.
The battle outside was growing more intense, and what he needed to do was to quickly absorb those Laws of Fear.
Thinking of this, Leonard Churchill immediately took out the “Catastrophe·Ground Roar” Divine Power Scrap he had just acquired and started examining it.
This was a rare opportunity.
With the “Temporary Comprehension +2” from the Mysterious Realm and a vast amount of the Laws of Fear aiding his understanding, he was in the best state for learning.
No matter how much he could digest, he would first cram as much as possible into his mind.
…
Outside the War Field.
Sophia Jones was still in a stalemate with the two knights of the four under the king.
Further afield, the explosions near the Silver Moon God Tree were equally fierce.
It wasn’t just the Lionheart Family involved; several Senators and some of the prominent powers that had been in Sinless City were also taking part.
Everyone now clearly saw the situation.
No matter whether they could leave the Mysterious Realm or not, the Ancient God Devotees would definitely not allow them to survive.
Otherwise, even if they managed to seize the highest authority in the Federation, they would ultimately be making a wedding dress for the Ancient God.
In a corner, Barre Shepherd and Merlin were still observing the battle.
“Old head Merlin, what do you think the White Family’s people are pestering the kid for?”
“They might have taken a fancy to Leonard Churchill’s body.”
“What, that effeminate likes men???”
