Dickens had not reacted as he never expected he would ever meet Fane. When Lourain mentioned his name, Dickens did not even tie the name with that warrior at the peak at all.After Lourain repeated himself, Dickens finally responded. His eyes widened abruptly, and they almost popped out of their sockets. He turned to look at Lourain. "He's that warrior at the peak, Fane?"Lourain nodded. At that moment, he was so anxious that it seemed like smoke was about to come out of his head. He was in no mood to bother with Dickens' surprise. He slapped Dickens' arm. "Hurry and lead the way!"Dickens had a look of disbelief, but with how things were, he did not dare to delay matters at all even if he did not believe it, especially with the earnest look on Lourain's face. After all, time was of the essence. If they were quick enough, they would be able to save their fellow disciples.At that moment, about two kilometers away, Dickens' fellow disciples—including Hashem—were tied up by a special
Hashem's lips stiffened. He remembered what had happened the past two days, and he felt an indescribable sense of sorrow and rage in his heart.It was amusing. They were willing to do anything for the sake of their profits. They knew they were being used and that this was a plot from the warriors at the peak, but for the sake of bagging profits, they were willing to ignore all of that.They allowed others to use them and turned themselves into tools for someone else. However, Hashem refused to bow. "Someone will see through your plots eventually. Don't think we're all idiots. How could you possibly be willing to dip into your wallets for the Heartblood You have so many men in Toman Battlefield, but you keep saying that there aren't enough people."You said that we'd only be able to exchange the Heartblood on the last day, and you even said that only those with at least five people worth of Heartblood could exchange it! Those are all just lies! You just want to attack on the last day
However, their focus was not on the stranger at all.At that moment, the three of them were distressed. They were so angry that they did not know what to say."Are you insane?!" shouted Hashem. "You managed to escape, so why are you walking to your doom?!"Those two were not at his level of strength at all. Even with himself working with his two fellow disciples, they had been no match for those two above-average warriors, let alone Lourain and Dickens. They were asking for trouble! They were staking their lives!Dickens had to swallow back all his fear, and he could not say anything at all. He grew up with those fellow disciples, and he had always feared and respected them. Even when they were all in a bad state, he was still being lectured.Lourain was better off than Dickens. After all, Lourain was someone who did not fear anything. At that moment, Lourain had Fane with him as well. Looking at his fellow disciples full of injuries and being tied up, Lourain's anger soared.Lou
Lourain raised an eyebrow. He knew what he was saying, of course, but it was just that the rest of them did not understand him. Dickens gaped but stopped himself from saying anything.At that moment, Fane—who had been silent the whole time—finally spoke, "Who are you working for?"Fane's sudden words ceased their laughter. Yeagen and Teagen exchanged looks of disdain before Teagan sneered and said, "What? Are you asking for revenge?"Fane nodded before shaking his head. Everyone was stunned at the sight. Hashem and the others looked at Fane with widened eyes.Seeing as that stranger had arrived with Lourain, he must have had a good relationship with Lourain. Otherwise, with Lourain's personality, there was no way Lourain would let an outsider interfere with this.Anyone who was close to Lourain should be a normal person, yet both his speech and his expressions were very irregular. Fane did not care how others saw him at all, and he continued to say, "It's not really revenge to me,
Fane did not care about how tense the atmosphere was as he continued to say, "So all of you were just bragging. You were actually still afraid that we will be able to defeat you and spread the news to disrupt your plans."After he said that, Teagan and Yeagen were stunned. They looked like they were wondering if Fane was joking. However, Fane's expression did not change. It did not seem like he was joking at all.Teagan sneered, "Brat! Are you trying to challenge us? Do you know the consequences of doing that?"Fane shook his head, saying calmly, "I don't know the consequences, but I do know that the two of you are trying to avoid answering because you're worried. Even if the two of you kill us right now, it can't change how you feel."Fane's words made it sound like it was certain that was what they felt. The two of them could no longer even laugh. That brat was really challenging their bottom line! Teagan's lips twitched. He was just about to answer Fane's question to prove that
Yeagen frowned as he said to Teagan, "Whatever! Let's just stop trying to communicate with an idiot. Why do we need to tell him anything? Who does he think he is?"Fane sighed slightly before he started to laugh, looking at them with unbridled mockery. At that moment Teagan could no longer remain calm! Yeagen could not even stop him.Teagan scoffed and said, "So what if we tell you?! Both of us are from the Searing Flame Clan in Star Continent. Triton is our eldest disciple. If it comes to status, we're working for him."Fane has never heard of Triton's name before, but he was very familiar with Star Continent. In terms of grudges, Star Continent had the deepest grudge against him. Fane nodded slightly, "So that Triton must be a peak warrior."When they mentioned Triton's name, both of them had a tone of complete respect. Teagan held his head high and said, "Of course he is! You regular warriors aren't even worthy of licking his boots! You're lucky enough just getting to hear his n
Fane nodded, remembering the name. Yeagen put his hands up, not wanting to continue wasting time, "Brat, we've already told you everything you want to know. It's time for you to just surrender. At least you'll suffer a bit less. Of course, you can continue fighting back too, but if you do that, I can guarantee you that things will end very badly for you."Fane was not bothered by those threats at all, and he pretended like he could not hear them. In truth, Fane still wanted to ask more questions, but the two of them seemed like they no longer had the patience to answer him even if he asked.Since that was the case, there really was no point in continuing to waste time. The two of them exchanged a look, and Teagan nodded to Yeagen, "It's fine, just leave this guy to me. I'll make sure to give him an unforgettable lesson so he knows his place."After he said that, he started to form seals with his hands. Countless light-green seals danced in the air like fireflies in the night. A viol
The moment the Broken Soul Blade was inside the cyclone, the countless swords immediately charged right at the blade. Teagan had thought that the Broken Soul Blade would be torn into pieces of energy, but that thought was immediately discarded. Before those green swords could even touch the Broken Soul Blade, the Broken Soul Blade unleashed a wave of gray energy that filled the whole cyclone.Cracking sounds could be heard from within the cyclone. In just a few seconds, the cyclone was completely swallowed up by that gray energy.The next second, the Broken Soul Blade broke through the cyclone and quickly charged at Teagan. Only then did Teagan realize that his technique had not only failed to destroy his opponent's technique, but it had been unable to stop it at all. The moment the two techniques clashed, his own technique completely failed.Teagan widened his mouth in shock, but he did not have time to do anything else, because the Broken Soul Blade was already in front of him.
