The intense pain caused Jack's body to tremble. He could hear the sword slicing his flesh and Kotaro's angry yells. Jack clenched his teeth and the veins of his right hand protruded as he tried his best to resist Kotaro's downward force. But he could not resist Kotaro with the strength of just one arm!

Fresh blood flowed from his left shoulder which soaked half his body. Jack started to feel dizzy due to the massive loss of blood.

"Release Mr. Hughes!" Daisy suddenly yelled out.

Jack's heart shook when he saw Daisy rush behind Kotaro. Immediately, Daisy used her strong bow to hook Kotaro's neck and used all her strength to pull him back.

Shoosh!

With the intense pull, Kotaro's short katana drew out of Jack's shoulder along with a splatter of fresh blood.

Kotaro was forcibly dragged backward by Daisy and he instinctively raised his hand to try to break the bowstring. However the bowstring was sharp and the more he tried to pull it, the more it cut into his hands. Was he going to die? Jack heaved a sigh of relief when he saw Kotaro struggling. For several times, Jack felt close to death because of Kotaro's ferocity. Such a ferocious person was literally a killing machine. "Ah!" Kotaro yelled.

Being strongly dragged by the strong bow, Kotaro sharply twisted his head and then raised his katana to slice the bowstring.

Daisy's cool expression now revealed her intense horror. Almost at the same moment, she released the strong bow and retreated.

Then, slash! The katana slashed Daisy's abdomen.Content rights belong to .

Daisy stopped in place.

Jack shuddered and a loud sound exploded in his mind. It was as if time had stood still. Jack looked at Daisy in disbelief with his eyes wide open. He could see fresh blood flowing from Daisy's abdomen. Daisy's face was full of horror as she held onto her abdomen and collapsed onto the ground.

"Die, Mengpo!" Time started again with Kotaro's yell. He ruthlessly raised his short katana and descended on Daisy.

"Kotaro, come and kill me!" Jack's eyes were red and all fired up as his body was drenched with blood. At this moment, he forgot about the intense pain and stood up. Daisy was Brent's woman and his brother's woman! He would have already been killed by Kotaro had it not been for Daisy.

He could not accept that Daisy died in the hands of Kotaro!

"Too late!" Kotaro laughed. His short katana continued downwards without a pause and declared, "Anyone who hinders me will die!"

Bang! A gunshot was heard.

The insane Kotaro trembled and froze in place.

"Argh!" His body shuddered and he spat out a mouthful of blood. He slowly looked down and looked at his chest in disbelief. Black smoke smothered from a hole and blood began to ooze from it. Jack was stunned by the sudden change of events. Immediately, hurried footsteps could be heard in the darkness.

They were here! Jack rejoiced. He turned to see Mr. Ward and Lone Wolf leading a group of protection guards towards them.

There was a beautiful image amongst them and Jack was immediately stunned. Amber's eyes were red and full of tears. She thought that she was in a nightmare when she saw the state Jack was in.

His body was covered with blood and his familiar face looked dazed. It was as if countless needles stabbed into Amber's heart. Amber couldn't suppress her emotions and tears started to flow as she ran towards Jack.

She yelled as she ran, "Liar! Jack! You're a big liar!"

Jack smiled bitterly and didn't retort.

On one side, Mr. Ward and Lone Wolf were shocked to see Jack's injuries. Next, they saw Daisy laying on the ground and immediately they reacted ferociously.

"Kill him!" Mr. Ward ordered and raised the pistol in his hand. He was the one who fired the shot which hit Kotaro. The protection guards raised their guns as they saw Mr. Ward raising his.

All these were coming to an end! Jack had finally managed to persist until Mr. Ward and the others came!

With so many people around, there was no way Kotaro could escape!

Then.

Boom, boom, boom... Before they fired their pistols, Kotaro threw several smoke bombs and covered himself with the thick smoke.

Oh crap! Jack's heart sank.

"Fire!" Jack ordered angrily.

Mr. Ward and Lone Wolf also yelled and fired.

Bang bang bang... They fired towards the bamboo forest.

As soon as they started firing, Jack could see a black image rushing through the thick smoke and directly towards him.

"Die!" Kotaro was covered with blood and as he rushed out through the smoke, his hands pulled out a band and tossed it towards Jack.

Woosh woosh woosh... Instantly, numerous daggers flew towards Jack.

"Amber!" Jack's pupils constricted as he saw Amber running towards him.

He didn't think twice and his injury covered body lunged forward towards Amber and held her in his embrace. Jack held Amber with one of his hands and spun.

Suddenly, the daggers rained down on them. Even with Jack's efforts to dodge, several daggers hit him. Before he could feel the pain, Amber shuddered in his arms and yelled out in pain.

Jack's mind immediately went blank as he looked shocked at Amber as a dagger penetrated deep into her shoulder.

"Amber!" Jack was stunned and his eyes turned red.

"Liar..." Amber raised her head slowly as she looked painfully at Jack.

The 'liar' sounded like a clear day thunderclap in Jack's mind and caused his body to shudder.

"Be careful, master!"

"Mr. Hughes, careful!"

Mr. Ward and Lone Wolf both yelled simultaneously.

Jack was snapped back to his senses. He instinctively turned and Kotaro already stood in front of him.

Slash!

The short katana pierced between Jack's shoulder blades and blood splattered. Jack's body trembled and he frowned with the intense pain. Kotaro was fierce like a beast. Both his hands clutched tightly the short katana and strongly pierced downwards.

Jack felt the katana piercing into his back. At the same moment, Amber groaned in pain. He felt as though his heart was about to split open. His intense wrath suddenly surged tremendously.

Thud!

Just as Kotaro was about to turn the blade, Jack ignored his injuries, raised his left hand, and grabbed the blade. Fresh blood flowed from the blade but it was as if Jack did not feel the pain. Like a beast, his killing instinct raged and he was totally transformed.

He raised his head and glared angrily at Kotaro, "You deserve death for hurting my wife!"☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
