1135 I am just claiming my reward in advance.
“Do you have a death wish or something?”
Nux questioned with a genuinely confused expression on his face.
“What did you say?” Darain narrowed his eyes.
“So a hearing problem as well…
Fuck, fate did you dirty huh.”
“Don’t overstep your limits.” Darain’s face turned cold.
He wouldn’t let a mere Semi Saint disrespect him like that.
“If you have the guts to accept my challenge, then do it. Or you can leave, I do not want you to remain in my presence anymore.”
“This challenge is not happening. It defeats my purpose of coming here.” Nux replied.
“What purpose?” Darain frowned.
Nux pointed at Kealin.
“I want him on the Battle Stage, now however many extra props you people decide to add with him, I do not care.”
“How about a two versus all? Kaelin and I versus the ExceedoGensis.”
“It is too unfair.”
“I told you, you do not have to add him if you think it is too unfair for yo-”
“For you.”
Nux completed his sentence.
“It would look like we are bullying you if we accept that challenge. That will be bad for our Clan’s image,”
Nux replied and Darain’s mouth twitched in annoyance.
This fucking bastard… did he forget that he was talking to a Saint Stage Cultivator?
Darrain wanted nothing more than to beat this man to death, in the end, however, he controlled his anger and with an annoyed look on his face, he questioned, “What do you want then?”
“ExceedoGenesis vs Bloodmoon.
There will be no limit to the number of members, but this Kaelin dude should be included in your team.”
Nux proposed without beating around the bush.
“If that is how you would like to play, then let’s go with it. Don’t say I didn’t want you before.” Darain spoke as a cold light shined in his eyes.
Nux, however, was still as expressionless as before, the moment he got what he
wanted, he grabbed Riona’s hand and turned around.
“Wait, when do we schedule this?” Darain questioned.
“What’s there to schedule? Let’s do it first thing tomorrow morning and be done with it.”
“I cannot do that. I need at least a week to complete the preparations, unlike you, who treat this challenge, you are only a stepping stone in my eyes, I need some time to make the best of this opportunity.”
“Heh, Destiny Leader said the same thing, now they work under me.”
“Don’t compare me to some Third-rate trash.”
“Says the Second Rate.
Well, I guess it somewhat makes sense.”
Nux nodded to himself, then, after heaving a big sigh, he glanced at Darain and, “Alright, I will you a week, prepare however you like.
I am actually looking forward to it Darain Bloodmoon,
Don’t disappoint me.”
Saying those words, Nux walked away while holding Riona’s hand. Going out, his eyes fell on the guard who had cleaned up his friend’s body, the moment the guard noticed him, his body flinched in fear.
Nux passed by without doing anything and the guard let out a sigh of relief as if he had been holding it back for years.
Inside the Hall room, the [Dark Amethyst] Throne Nux had left behind disappeared and once it did, a man named Vikram commented.
“He is too arrogant.”
Obviously, none of the cultivators here liked the way Nux acted. However, there was nothing they could do. Their Clan Leader was only thinking about the
benefits and they alone weren’t strong enough to defeat that bastard who was already a Semi Saint, not to mention a Complete One.
“Don’t worry, it is the arrogant ones whose fall is the most entertaining and remember, the more entertaining the battle, the better our future position will be.”
Darain smirked.
The bright look in his eyes showed his confidence, he could already see his clan returning to their previous glory.
Thinking about it, Darain glanced at his 6 subordinates and, “You people know what to do, correct?”
“Of course, don’t worry and please leave the Human Continent to us.”
“We will be taking the Dragon Continent.”
“I’ll inform the Dwarves.”
“We will visit the Demon Lairs.”
Soon, the tasks were distributed smoothly and Darain’s smile widened even further.
“Good.
I want you to act as efficiently as your mouth spoke, if I find out that you are slacking, then death would be the last thing should be worried about.” He threatened as if it was the most natural thing to do.
The 6 Great Sages flinched before they nodded, then, without waiting any further, they left.
Vexaris, one of the Six Great Sages glanced at the guard whose companion had just died and walked towards him.
The Guard was alerted the moment he saw the six of them and saluted properly according to the customs of the Frostspire Clan.
Vexaris, however, didn’t seem amused, rather, he continued to stare at the soldier for a while, then, a sword appeared in his hand, and,
Slash
He beheaded him.
“We do not want cowards who bow their heads in front of the Enemy.”
Saying those words, Vexaris walked out, following his ‘friends’ before the 6 of them finally separated into 4 different directions.
…
“That was quite a show,” Riona commented as the two of them came a fair distance away from Frostspire Clan.
“Were you impressed?” Nux questioned.
“Everything would be worth it if you were.”
“I was certainly impressed by your
arrogance.”
“It is not arrogance if it is backed up by strength.”
“He is a Saint Stage Cultivator, Nux.”
“I can defeat him with my eyes closed, trust me.”
Riona stared at Nux for a while and, “I don’t know much, but the last time I checked Saint Stage cultivators were stronger than Semi Saints, even if the latter is a Complete Cultivator.
Not even the Seven Heroes have defeated even an Incomplete Saint Stage Cultivator yet.”
“Are you comparing me to the Seven
Heroes?” Nux narrowed his eyes.
“They all have stepped into Semi Saint realm as well, Nux.”
“Tsk Tsk, this is why you need to follow me more, mother-in-law.
You don’t know anything at all.” Nux commented.
Riona, on the other hand, was concerned about a different thing,
“You can leave my hand now.”
“Let’s stay like this for a while.
Consider it as my reward for winning against the Bloodmoon Clan.”
“The Battle hasn’t started even yet.”
“I am just claiming it in advance.”
“Arrogance…”
“Confidence.”
Nux replied as the two of them stood there holding each other hands for a little more than a while.
