Perfect Husband, The Destined One novel Chapter 4000

Well, this wouldn't do!

Seeing the scene before her worsen, Veron began to grow anxious yet again.

She barely thought twice before she dashed forward, straight into Skylar's back.

Veron had originally planned to wait until Master Magaera had injured Skylar to attack, but it seemed like that was going to take a while to happen. She had to do something.

Seeing all of Skylar's attention focused on Master Magaera, Veron knew she had to strike before it was too late.

Buzz!

In the blink of an eye, Veron was right behind Skylar. Channeling all her internal energy, she pushed it out.

"Veron?"

Sensing danger from behind him, Skylar knew something was up. He whipped his head back. At the sight of Veron, his heart thudded with a crash. At the same time, realization dawned on him.

"You're dead meat!"

Skylar cried out as it dawned on him as he tried to awaken the soul-sucking bloodworm in Veron's body.

What surprised him was that Veron did not react at all. In fact, she could not sense the aura of the soul-sucking bloodworm anymore.

What was going on?

Skylar's mind stuttered as he racked his brain for answers.

Impossible…

The soul-suckimh bloodworm was incurable in all of the Nine Continents. How had Veron managed to be cured of it?

"Skylar Blanc!"

At the look on his face, Veron's feline eyes narrowed with smugness and resentment on her delicate face. "I bet you didn't see this coming, huh? Here's what happened. I've cured myself of the soul-sucking bloodworm with glazed water, and now you can control me no longer!"

"I swear to avenge the death of my mother at your ruthless hands! No mercy for you!"

As the words rang, energy burst from Veron's entire body as she landed a slap on Skylar's back/

"Sect Master!"

"Watch out…"

To tell the truth, Veron's skills would have been no match for that of Skylar on any other occasions. It was just that Skylar had just been dueling against Master Magaera, causing a great dent in his spiritual energy. This had given Veron advantage in the situation.

F*ck!

Skylar's forehead beaded with sweat, his gaze poisonous as that of a python. He glared sharply at Veron.

Veron's hand had been incredibly strong. Thank god he had the Spiritual Shield preserve at least a bit of his strength, or he would have been dead.

"Sect Master!!"

Just then, Kendall came rushing over. She cried out to Skylar, "Are you alright?" as she made to help him up.

"Leave me be, I'll get out alive!"

Skylar roared, pointing at Veron in mid-air. "Kill her, kill her now…"

Skylar's eyes were bloodshot as she spat the words out. He seemed to have gone insane.

Skylar had always gotten whatever and whoever he wanted ever since he stepped foot into the world. He was the one who controlled others, yet today he had been tricked by Veron. How was he going to live this down?
