The grand-elder, who came from the Heaven Lake Sect, felt two immense pressures coming toward him at the fastest speed. He tried to run, but as soon as the force hit his body, he started trembling fiercely. He felt goose bumps breaking throughout his limbs. Soon, his legs started feeling like jelly, making him almost kneel on the ground.
The grand-elder narrowed his eyes at the two young men standing in front of him. They sent forth such strong pressure! They might not be weaker than him.
His vicious look softened. He bowed to them, and a small smile crept on his lips. "Why did you kill the disciple of the Heaven Lake Sect? Did he offend you?"
The disciples of the Heaven Lake Sect around were all dumbfounded. The dominant grand-elder came ferociously and became soft-hearted as soon as he saw those two young men. Who on earth were they?
One disciple couldn't understand just why the grand-elder suddenly changed his expressions after seeing these two men. "Grand-elder, these two men suddenly came out of our treasure house. I went in to have a look, but all the treasures were gone." He tightened his lips and swept a suspicious glance at the two young men.
"It is I who took the treasures." Hobson stepped forward with his arms clasped behind his body.
"Ha-ha." Cold sweat sprang up on the grand-elder's body. This wasn't good. These stupid disciples shouldn't take matters in their hands when they didn't have a single clue about the level of these youths. He took multiple breaths to calm his racing heart and smiled. "It's not a big deal. Since you think highly of those treasures, just take them as my gifts for you."
The smile faded off of the face of that disciple when he saw the grand-elder behaving like this. "What? Is the grand-elder afraid of them? Who are they?"
Another disciple looked at the two youths suspiciously. "Are these two really so powerful that we need to give them our treasures?"
Other disciples also voiced their concerns aloud, giving the grand-elder a splitting headache. Why couldn't they just stay silent and stop making things difficult for him?
"Humph, I've taken the treasures. But I have to tell you one thing, I'm not robbing your Heaven Lake Sect. They are things your sect owes me," Hobson said and sneered.
"What do you mean, young man?"
"The leader of the Heaven Lake Sect had worked together with the other leaders of the major forces to try to kill my good friend and me. Although they have been killed, the beloved godson of our senior died in their hands. It is an atonement for your sin. Do you understand?"
Everyone's expressions changed greatly, and the eyes of the grand-elder twitched several times.
"Darren, do you think we should punish disciples of the Heaven Lake Sect?" Hobson turned to Darren and slipped him a hopeful gaze.
Darren thought for a while and shook his head. "In my opinion, let them go. They have nothing to do with us. Why should we kill them?" His voice was calm as ever.
In fact, the disciples of the major sects joined in those forces just to obtain more resources and martial arts skills. Most of them were not scoundrels. Darren never killed innocent people.
The disciples heard the conversation and felt a flush of anger creeping up their faces. "Fuck! Enough! These two guy
r Heaven Lake Sect. If you want to unify the five forces, it is quite impossible," Tommy said calmly.
"So now you want to brag about how powerful your sect is, huh? If your sect really has ten such powerful warriors, why are you so polite with us? They should've killed us a long time ago," Hobson sneered.
"It's all up to you whether to believe it or not. However, I strongly declare that without the help of a powerful person, you two cannot unify the five major forces." Tommy shook his head in disagreement.
Darren could see that things were getting out of their hands. He poked Hobson's back urgently. "Forget it, Hobson. Let's go. The five major sects have existed for such a long time. They can't survive without a strong background." It was a sudden idea of Darren to unite the five major forces. It was okay if they did not do it. For Darren, it really wasn't a big deal!
"Darren, he must be bluffing. I don't believe they have so many strong warriors,"
Hobson said and he jumped up into the air. His violent Holy Will surged crazily and smashed a few pillars below into pieces.
"Hey!" He looked around and squinted his eyes at the disciples surrounding them. "Are there any powerful warriors?" When no one replied, Hobson started chuckling loudly, staring at them with his dark eyes.
Darren felt a surge of anger flooding through his veins. "Let's go." He stayed silent and looked coldly at Hobson. His voice was sharper than a harsh gust of wind.
"Don't stop me now, Darren."
That was it! Hobson had surpassed all limits. Veins started popping on Darren's forehead. "Let's go!" Darren released the blade and sword intents at Hobson. When Hobson felt a pressure coming from the direction where Darren was standing, his eyes widened and looked back. He dodged the attack quickly.
Now when Hobson came back to his senses, he realized he unknowingly made Darren mad at him. His Adam's apple bobbled, and he peered at Darren. "Don't be angry, Darren. I'll listen to you. Let's go now, ha-ha." Hobson let out an embarrassed laughter.
"I'm sorry, guys. I don't think you can leave now."
A few human figures came from all directions and surrounded Darren and Hobson.
