Chapter 285
Colton furrowed his brows, eyeing the twenty–some guys behind Cullen.
“Seriously? Ganging up now?” he thought. Normally, he wouldn’t even blink at such a threat, but today was different. He had Flora to worry about. He had to be more cautious.
“Cullen, I don’t have time for your games today. Bring fifty people next time if you want, and I still take you on, but for now, move aside!
Colton gripped Lance’s hand with one hand and Flora’s with the other, trying to leave
Cullen and his Red Scorpions quickly blocked their path. It was only because Colton had two “Trabilities with him that they dared to stop him. If he were alone, they wouldn’t have even tried. Around Ruby Path, Colton was one of the top fighters, and not many could best him.
I’m not letting you go. What’s got you so worked up? How about this kneel and beg, and maybe I’ll let you pass,” Cullen sneered, his hand arrogantly landing on Colton’s shoulder

Cullen, seeing his chance, stood behind the overwhelmed Colton and swung a metal rod at his back. Colton reacted, but not quickly enough to dodge. Just as he braced for the impact, someone yanked him back by his collar. The rod narrowly missed his chest
Flora kicked Cullen’s hand, making him drop the rod. She caught it effortlessly, weighed it for a moment, then hurled it at Cullen’s abdomen. Though it seemed like a light throw the rod hit with the force of a ton of bricks, making Cullen spit out blood and sending him flying into a wall.
Flora’s eyes scanned the crowd with a mischievous grin as she charged forward like an arrow. In no time, the Red Scorpions were on the ground, groaning in pain.
Colton stared at Flora, stunned and speechless for what felt like
