751 Chapter 751

Madam Dara let out a long breath and with a satisfied smile she lamented.

"[Reptilian] We sure did… Against all odds, I might add."

When they heard the news of their Master, the seven of them immediately cast aside all thoughts. They were ready to give their lives for their lord without hesitation or a modicum of doubt.

Now that they were celebrating the joy of surviving the calamity, every single breath felt incomparably blessed.

After this battle, the friendship between their group changed, transformed considerably. This was a friendship forged through life and death and was baptized in a literal sea of blood. There was nothing to compare it to. It was priceless.

Looking at this scene, Aiden smiled faintly and a warm feeling surged into his heart, remaining for a long time.

At the same time, seemingly going unnoticed, the heavy raid had also came to an end, and had stopped. The storm came and went quickly. The dark clouds, that shouldn't even have been possible given the place and circumstances have dispersed in a blink of an eye giving way to the natural heavy ceiling of the grandiose cavern wall to give way to the residents down below once again. Still, that faint light given by the luminescent foliage as well as the torches and lanterns hanging all around cast a warmer light replacing all that doom and gloom from before.

It wasn't only Aiden, the now nicked 'Mysterious Stranger'. From this day forth, the rest of his crew of colorful misfits were going to be famous throughout the inner and outer city of Ugburg as well!

As Azure Myst Sect took action, the other factions did not want to lag behind either and joined hurriedly as well. The various large and popular groups of this world each and all have come out of the shadows and decided to take actions. Not just Tai-Liu, or the two largest and second strongest Crystal Palace Sect and the Malefic Demon clan but all the other large parties have each made their appearance finally. The Heavenly Gate Sect, the Fire Bird Sect and some other, smaller sized factions all wanted a piece of this delicious pie.

Suddenly, a black-robed figure emerged from the crowd and walked over slowly. Wielding an ominous bone spear that had faint, dried blood traces all over its tip, he was extremely terrifying!

He arrived before Aiden and stood still.

The actions of the black-robed man attracted countless gazes.

"[Reptilian] It's him! It really is him!"

"[Reptilian] That… That's the Dark Lord himself! What does he want?"

"[Reptilian] Who knows? One thing for sure… He doesn't seem friendly."

Madam Dara and the others were no longer smiling, instead now sporting a grim, solemn expression.

They could sense a strong and dangerous aura coming from the black-robed figure.

This man was extremely strong! In fact, a thought crossed their minds; even if they were at peak condition and joined forces, they might not be a match for this person!

The black-robed man glared at Aiden for several arduously long seconds without saying anything. His gaze was cold, ruthless and fierce as he scanned over the enigmatic youth before him. All the while, Aiden withstood the uncomfortable attention without as much as a frown. He looked at the man with a calm, carefree smile under the cover of his hood.

"[Reptilian] Good. Very good."

After coming to a conclusion, the black-robed man nodded and declared proudly. "[Reptilian] I am the Dard Lord, the current heir to the Malefic Demon Clan. You fought bravely, and are decent looking. Rejoice! You are given the opportunity, the chance to join us and become a member of my personal guard."

Madam Dara and the group sitting on the floor behind Aiden were stunned at such an exclamation.

During their time here assigned to their respective missions they have learned a bit about the top factions present in this world. Thus they had a much better understanding of the current political landscape than their Young Master.

They knew that the Malefic Demon Clan was a fearsome group of monstrously powerful individuals. Though they were considered as one of the evil forces it was undeniable that each member was feared and at the same time, well respected.

Furthermore, this young heir, this 'Dark Lord' of the Malefic Demons were exceptionally arrogant and had a very commanding tone of voice. He even had a condescending attitude that was truly unpleasant.

Madam Dara and the others looked at their Young Master nervously.

They knew what his answer would be to such a question or to such a derogatory tone. Even if he were to offend such a powerful force, he would not hesitate if they were to step on his ideals.

However, given the fiend heir's temperament and methods, he would definitely turn murderous and attack the Young Master once he was rejected!

After that intense battle, Aiden was now at his weakest. How could he be a match for the fiend heir of Malefic Demon Clan?

Was he going to meet with another calamity after surviving a life and death battle?

And just as they had expected, the response came not long after.

Aiden smirked at the fierce looking man before him before throwing a disdain-filled scoff right back at him. "[Reptilian] Opportunity? Heh… What opportunity? What chance? What Malefic Demon Clan? I have no idea who you or the band of thugs behind you are. Also… The 'Dark Lord' of the Malefic Demon Clan? Please… Was that the best you could come up with? Laughable."

Everyone present were shocked when they heard that! Many of the spectators looked at Aiden as though they were looking at a dead man.

In reality, Aiden could hardly contain his laughter. When he heard the peculiar name of the young man, acting truly like a villain out of some dark fantasy story, he could barely hold a solid face.

Could you be edgier by any chance? Please… Could you just… stop?

Sure enough, The dark-robed man's expression darkened instantly upon hearing the response. His gaze narrowed and the bone spear in his hands quivered like it was alive, giving off a malevolent aura that rattled one's heart!

Yet, not even a few seconds later, a chuckle came not far away, breaking the tense atmosphere immediately.

"[Reptilian] Ahahaha… Finally, someone said it!" A luxuriously-robed man strode over. He had beautiful features and the black-feathered crown of hair was bundled up without any loose ends. Bearing crystal clear eyes, he was flawless from head to toe.

The dark-robed young man's expression was unchanged when he saw that man, but there was a hint of caution deep in his eyes.

"[Reptilian] Crystal Palace Sect…" He frowned.
