Chester, Dax, and Ambrose stood up to see Prince Auten leave.When Prince Auten left the main hall, Chester suddenly thought of something. He took a deep breath while his face had a serious expression."What's wrong, Chester?" asked Dax when he noticed Chester's expression change.Chester shook his head and warily explained, "I can't put my finger on it, but something is off with Mr. Au. Do you remember when we saw Darryl in the Hidden Hero Sect? He never mentioned any friend from The Godly Region came with him to The Nine Mainland."Chester was a meticulous person. While he did not pick up anything in the beginning, he started to get suspicious as Prince Auten kept asking about Darryl.Dax scratched his head and thought for a while. "Yes, I don't think he mentioned it."Chester thought for a while and asked Ambrose, "Ambrose, how did you know Mr. Au?"Ambrose put down the glass and told everyone how he met Prince Auten."He fell from the sky along with several crazy beasts?" A
These people were from the Mouse Sect. Although the members from this sect were cultivators, they hardly interfered or joined the other cultivators, having specialized in digging ancient tombs.Thinking back, Darryl was somehow connected with the members of the Mouse Sect. When Lily was framed by her family, she nearly lost her life. Coincidentally, she met someone from the Mouse Sect, and that person saved her life.After that, Darryl was framed by the Holy Saint Sect. He fell down the cliff and fortunately met with the people who rescued Lily. This was how Darryl and Lily were able to reunite.Currently, the name of the leader of the Mouse Sect was Josiah Yoder, an Altar Master of a Branch Altar of the Mouse Sect. He had a tall build and a ruthless personality.For the past few days, Josiah passed by Kyoto with his subordinate when they overheard there was an ancient tomb below the Falling Zen Temple. Immediately, he brought his subordinate to look into it.Everyone in the world
At that moment, a slender figure came flying in and landed on the roof of the main hall. With a beautiful, fae-like face and fair skin, she donned a long white dress.If Darryl was here, he would definitely be astonished. Even after so many years, Circe never changed in terms of appearance as though her age never caught up to her. Her skin was still fair like snow like an 18-year-old teenage girl.Circe looked at Josiah's dead body, then at Jeca, and then at the rest of the people. She shouted, "Members of the Mouse Sect, how treacherous all of you are! How dare all of you break into the Lange family territory?"The Falling Zen Temple had been deserted for many years. Since it was within the territory of the Lange family and was regarded as a historical site, the Lange family had listed it as a forbidden area.Jeca and the others did not respond. They held their breath and widened their eyes when they saw Circe.Beautiful… So beautiful!As her dress fluttered with the wind, her e
Jeca gulped when he felt the power of this attack. Unable to evade such a strike, he quickly activated his internal energy to form a protective barrier in front of him.Just as the shield was formed, Circe's attack shot toward Jeca, crashing right into the barrier. A hum was heard as the protection barrier shattered.The attack's remaining force did not slow down as it stabbed Jeca's body. As blood gushed out of his wound, he receded a few steps as his face instantly paled.'F*ck!' Jeca wiped away the blood from the corner of his mouth and glared at Circe. 'What a vicious woman. Every attack she made was aimed to kill me!'Although he was enraged, he did not panic and instead smiled. "Miss Circe, there's no bitter and deep-seated hatred between us. Do you really need to kill me?"Circe bit her lip tightly, could not be bothered to spare Jeca a conversation. Thus, she moved and attacked Jeca again with her whip sword.The others reacted and quickly joined the fight with Circe. The
At that moment, Circe felt her mind go blank. She could clearly feel the area where the Red Bees stung was burning like fire. As the burn intensified, Circe felt dizzy and had trouble standing still.Despite that, she gritted her teeth and tried to stay calm, despite being shocked at how powerful these Red Bees were.Jeca smiled and extended his hand out, scattering some white-colored powder into the sky. The Red Bees calmed down and obediently flew back into the black wooden box. After claiming back all the Red Bees, Jeca smiled pleasantly at Circe. "Miss Circe, I told you just now, didn't I? You can't defeat me if I'm serious. Do you believe me now?"He slowly walked toward Circe."Get away! Don't come near me!" Circe could practically sense Jeca's malicious thoughts through his eyes. With her face flushed pink, she bit her lip and snapped, "If you dare touch me, I'll make sure you'll die without a burial place!"Her eyes looked humiliated and ashamed. She was the next in line t
Jeca's eyes flashed with greed when he saw Circe pass out. He would be satisfied with his life if he could taste the sweetness of the famous goddess of the Lange family. Before that, though, he needed to settle the beggar.Jeca shouted at the members of the Mouse Sect, "What are you waiting for? Kill him to avenge Altar Master Josiah!"The members took out their weapons and attacked Antigonus.A glint of malice flashed across Antigonus' eyes. "Ignorant insects! Since all of you want to die so badly, I'll fulfill your wishes."He raised his right hand. At that moment, the air around them was distorted. Following that, a deep crimson fireball appeared, created by concentrating the Power of the Fiend Soul.A second later, he waved his hand, and the fireball flew toward the crowd, leaving a deep crimson trace.Boom!The speed of the fireball looked slow, but it reached the crowd in the blink of an eye. With a loud explosion, the members of Mouse Sect, including Jeca, were set ablaze
Circe nodded. "Yes. I was stung by the poisonous bees they released, and that's why I passed out."A young disciple walked out and said solemnly, "Circe, when we found you, there were only you and the weird man at Falling Zen Temple. There were no other people."How could that be?Circe's eyebrows furrowed.How could so many people disappear suddenly?Tuji waved his hand. "Bring that stranger here.""Yes, Chief," answered two disciples and strode out of the conference hall.Not long later, they dragged the still-unconscious Antigonus to the hall. He was interrupted during his cultivation to recover, and that messed up the Power of the Fiend Soul. Later, he was forced to use his power to agglomerate the fireball. Thus, Antigonus was in danger.Tuji looked at Antigonus and said coldly, "Wake him up with water."A disciple went outside and got a bucket of cold water. He then poured the cold water from the top of Antigonus' head.Due to how cold the water was, Antigonus jolted aw
Antigonus knew he would easily be tracked down by Master Magaera's men with his current condition if he left the Lange family. Moreover, he truly did not have anywhere to go. Thus, he took the risk and requested to stay here.An uproar rang out in the hall. The elder and young disciples could not help and discuss."Stay? Do you know you're an outsider?""Do you know what place this is? You stand before the Lange family! Do you think you can stay just because you want to?""That's right. You have no right to join the Lange family!"The crowd did not hide the contempt they had for Antigonus in the discussion. To them, Antigonus was no different than a beggar. It was so hilarious to think Antigonus wanted to stay in the family.Antigonus looked indifferent to their remarks. However, he felt a wave of sick anger. 'Ignorant ants. How dare they look down and mock me? When I recover, I'll send all of you to hell.'At that moment, Tuji signaled the crowd to quiet down.He looked at Ant
