After punching Tiger Wong in the face Ancestor
continues with another punch to the stomach that sends him
flying backwards. Ancestor rushes forward to strike again but
suddenly
begins holding his head in agonizing pain. Apparently Tigers'
kicks have actually done some damage. His eyes take on a dull red
hue as if he were possessed.
If Ancestor has any weaknesses it appears to be strikes to the head. In a previous issue Ancestor allowed Gold Dragon to strike him in the stomach but when he tried to strike the head Dragon got rammed into the ground. Now Ancestor is left dizzy from a kick to the head that he received last issue.
With Ancestor distracted the monks decide to use this opportunity to attack. Instead, Ancestor hops into the air and drops down on them like a bomb slaughtering them. Raising his hand he unleashes a cloud of poison that blasts the monks and leaves the Global Cult troops throwing up on the ground. The Supreme is horrified to see the death and destruction that Ancestor is able to deliver just with a wave of his hand. His men are left crawling on the ground vomiting and begging for mercy. As if things weren't bad enough The Supreme spots his father rushing towards him with another attack. He manages to block a palm strike with his forearm but gets pounded in the ribs with a series of fists that knock him back. The Supreme, Chan and Incredible Chap all back away from the enraged Old Supreme. The anguish of striking his own son is too much and Old Supreme drops to his knees. Should he continue to fight his son, perhaps to even kill his son. The confusion is too much and Old Supreme begins to weep. He cries out in frustration and begins to tear his own hair out. The sound of his despair cuts right into the hearts of his own Global Cult troops.
Old Supreme rises back to his feet looking as if he just aged
ten years. His face contorted into an
a look of fury he walks towards his son with powerful angry steps
that crack the earth beneath him.
Seeing the rage in his fathers' eyes, The Supeme clenches his
fists and tells his father to stay back. 'I love you dearly my
child', says Old Supreme as he continues to move forward.
Backing his son up Old Supreme exclaims 'Kill me, then you can
take my position'. Finally the pressure is too much for The
Supreme so he hauls back and punches his father right in the
face. 'How Dare You Strike Me!, roars Old Supreme.
He shakes off the punch but then gets
attacked by both The Supreme and Chan Ou Wan. While
occupied with Chan, Old Supreme gets kicked in the back
but continues to press Chan. Several punches are blocked but
Chan finally gets socked right in the face. The Supreme
delivers another kick and starts reving up for a big one. Even though
he notices the oncoming kick Old Supreme seems obsessed with
hurting Chan and ignores it. The Supreme connects but
finds himself bounced back. Incredible Chap and his sister
Maggie who were standing together are suddenly separated by
the arrival of Ancestor. Ancestor has slaughtered all
the monks and wants to speak to Maggie. She reacts with fear
when she sees the blood covering his hands and he quickly tries to
wash it off in a puddle of water. Together Ancestor and The
Supreme escape with Maggie.

Tiger in the back of the head and calls him a dumb ass for not
wanting to help the young lady.
Tiger Wong and Barbarian bound off into the woods
leaving the Global Cult members as well as some Red
Sect men. Now it looks as if
Chan made a huge mistake in choosing to side with The
Supreme. He gets a little advice from Lone Kwoon Tin who
tells him that world affairs are like a game of chess and things can
change very quickly. Old Supreme raises his arms and tells
all his men to listen. Bacause of his collaberation with
Ancestor. The Supreme is now OUT. Removed
as Global Cult head and out of the cult entirely. All the
Cult members are abuzz over this new information. Even the Red
Sect fighters including Green Serpent, Puma and
Woodcock are eager to find out who The Supreme's
replacement will be. Old Supreme announces that he has already
decided on who the new leader will be. Make no
mistake about it, this is a monumental occasion. Puma wonders
why Old Supreme doesnt' just assume command himself. Well,
whantever his reasons Old Supreme
IS about to appoint a new Global Cult leader. Will it be his
own son Iron Todd? How about Incredible Chap. Does the
devious Chan Ou Wan still stand a chance? Not on your life.
Old Supreme raises his arm and points to the new leader of
Global Cult, Lone Kwoon Tin. At first Lone
is shocked but as the reality sinks in a broad grin crosses his face.
If you've followed the english translated comics you may well know
that Lone Kwoon Tin's goal was always to take over Global
Cult and now he's having it handed to him. The other department
heads present are crushed by this decision. Lone drops to one
knee thanking Old Supreme for this great honor and pledging
his loyalty. Old Supreme then calls out for Chan and
Incredible Chap's attention. Lone is enjoying this, he
has no
respect for Chan or Chap and loves seeing them get in
trouble. Too bad for him Old Supreme seems more interrested in
mending the deep division in Global Cult. He tells Chan
and Incredible Chap that he doesn't blame them for siding with
The Supreme. At hearing this Incredible Chap bows and
thanks Old Supreme for his vast capacity for forgiveness.
