The four of them talked for a long time before Fane finally spoke. He said calmly, "Alright! It's been two hours. You should hurry up and leave. If that array really was used to determine locations, then this place is already exposed. They will find us if we continue staying here."The four of them nodded. Maxcus' group bid their farewells gratefully before leaving Fane. Before he left, Maxcus had already figured out how to spread the news. He even dreamed of a future when everyone was working together against the warriors at the peak.It seemed like it would be a majestic sight. Maxcus and the others gave a transmission array to Lourain before they left. That way, they would be able to communicate any news they had. Fane and Lourain choose a direction to advance. Time passed very quickly, and a day was gone in a flash.In the last moments of that day, Fane and Lourain were surrounded by distorted space. The two of them were not surprised, since they already knew the rules by heart.
Fane turned around and looked at Lourain curiously, "What is it? Who sent you a message?"Lourain coughed as he frowned in confusion, "It was Maxcus. I don't understand. He told me the news has been spread around rapidly, and most of the warriors on the Toman Battlefield should already know about the situation. However, the situation has changed, and they've all gone into hiding."In Lourain's mind, everyone should have been working together against the warriors at the peak of the moment the news got out. Yet, Maxcus said that the situation changed and they were in hiding. As for what changed, he did not explain.Lourain was incredibly confused at that moment. When he thought about what Fane said earlier, he realized that this was probably what Fane was talking about. Just as he was recovering from his shock, footsteps were suddenly heard in front of them.Right after that, two men appeared in their sights. One of them wore a yellow shirt and looked quite decent. The other was incr
As the two of them were confused, someone suddenly jumped down from one of the trees. That person had a handsome face, and his eyes glinted viciously. The moment he touched the ground, he said sternly, "These two are mine! You two can get lost!"The man in a yellow shirt was stunned when he heard that voice. He turned to look and his face stiffened, "It's Chapman…"The man's face looked incredibly sour when he said the name as if he had swallowed a fly. The small-eyed man next to him froze as well. He had an angry look in his eyes, but quickly looked down, not wanting to show that expression.Chapman did not even bother glancing at the other two. His sharp eyes looked like an eagle that had spotted prey as he stared right at Fane and Lourain as if the two of them were already rabbits in his claws."Get lost right now! For the sake of your fellow disciple, I'll spare the two of you for now. Otherwise, I'll take your Heartblood too."When the two of them heard that, they shuddered.
Lourain frowned. He absolutely hated people who spoke that way, saying it was an honor to die for their technique. They spoke as if they were much better than others.The flames around the phoenix burned brighter and brighter, and it was as though the flames could melt a whole mountain.Fane quickly started to form seals with his hands, and about 50 Soul Swords merged into one.When Chapman saw Fane attacking, he scoffed in disdain. "My technique is at the intermediate ultimate god rank, and I've mastered it to the first state. I'm close to the second stage as well. I'm someone who's considered strong even among warriors that are above average. I'm not a small fry that you can stand up to!"Those words did not even stir Fane's heart. It was as if the man had just let out a fart. He pushed forward, and the Soul Sword suddenly swung forward.Chapman grasped his sword with both his hands and swung down at Fane's head.The phoenix dancing in the air let out another cry. Its fire-coat
Fane slowly walked to him, looking at him coldly as he said, "Can you answer my questions now?"Fane's tone did not even change when he spoke, his emotions flat just like before.To Chapman, however, it sounded far different. Fane sounded like an evil ghost straight from hell, cackling in his ears, and he shuddered. Even his breathing stopped."What? Are you not willing to answer me?" said Fane calmly when he did not answer. Chapman's whole body stiffened as he slowly looked up at him with shock and horror. "What do you want to ask? If I answer you, will you spare me?"Fane laughed and said calmly, "If you don't answer me, I'll do to you what you intended to do to us. If you answer me, I'll make things quick for you. I bet it felt quite good just now. Do you want to try it again?"Chapman was so scared that his whole body trembled. That feeling felt like he fell straight into hell, and it was not something he ever wanted to feel again. It felt worse than death. He fell silent. A
Chapman scoffed and said, "It looks like you don't know anything about this at all. I'll start from the beginning, then…"The day before, after Maxcus left the two of them, they immediately used the transmission arrays to relay the news to everyone they knew. After that, the news started to spread, and within an hour, most of the participants already knew about the cruel plan organized by the warriors at the peak.The fact that they were targets of such a cruel plan triggered everyone's anger. Some started to talk about how they would fight back, but the sentiments quickly disappeared when a different piece of news was broadcasted.The warriors at the peak, Desmond and Seymour, were gathering Heartblood. Each person's Heartblood would be able to yield 500000 spirit crystals. The moment Toman Battlefield ended, which was the seventh day after they entered, the participants could bring the Heartblood they collected to Phoenix Valley and exchange it with the two of them.To prevent to
Fane patted Lourain's shoulder. "There's no point thinking so much about it. Let's just look forward.""That's right. They even announced a new task," Chapman chimed in, his eyes widened. "Do you know Fane?"Fane was stunned when he heard his name. He turned to look at Chapman, motioning for him to continue.Chapman continued, "Before this, I'd never heard of Fane before. However, when I heard about this task, I looked into that person. He's actually at the level of a peak warrior now, but he incited a lot of anger for some reason. Hence, Desmond and the others are looking for him. If anyone notices any trace of Fane and quickly reports it to them, the person will be rewarded with three million spirit crystals."When they heard about such a huge reward, a few were very happy. They started to look around like headless chickens, but I just feel especially amused like them."If the warriors at the peak can't find Fane, do they think they could? On top of that, Fane's already a warrio
Triton shut his eyes, and there was a flash of anger on his face. "You useless trash. You can't even do something like this properly! Even if it's been wiped away, there's bound to be some clues left. I refuse to believe there's nothing! If you can't find anything, what's the point of having you around?"The short warrior immediately lowered his head in fear. "Triton, please calm down! I'll send some more men to look into it. They'll definitely find something!"Triton frowned and snapped, "Then hurry up and go! If you can't find anything, it's on your heads!"The short warrior excused himself immediately.The men behind Triton were all trying their best to make themselves seem smaller, worried that they would be the unlucky person at that moment.Triton gritted his teeth and tensed. "You useless bunch of trash! You can't even tell if it was Fane or not!"Just you wait, Fane. You dared to embarrass Star Continent in public, and I'll make sure you pay for that a thousand times over
